  1. [10/16/2013 5:45:52 PM] Isalba: SLAMS THE DESk
  2. [10/16/2013 5:45:57 PM] Isalba: tell me about the daemons please
  3. [10/16/2013 5:46:04 PM] Kitten: the city is called Tartarus
  4. [10/16/2013 5:46:16 PM] Isalba: good
  5. [10/16/2013 5:46:29 PM] Kitten: it exists in a gigantic cavern full of a malignant red haze and a seemingly sourceless red light
  6. [10/16/2013 5:46:44 PM] Kitten: the daemons there are all a specific subset, who broke away from the conventional Hell
  7. [10/16/2013 5:47:11 PM] Kitten: Tartarus is an extension of Hell, but rather than existing for the punishment of the damned, it exists as a society for the daemons
  8. [10/16/2013 5:47:22 PM] Kitten: who then can go out and feed on people and go about their business
  9. [10/16/2013 5:47:43 PM] Kitten: these particular daemons are incredibly governed by the seven sins, and they all fit within those categories
  10. [10/16/2013 5:47:49 PM] Kitten: though many of them indulge in many multiple sins
  11. [10/16/2013 5:48:09 PM] Kitten: their species are based on the sins, and they tend to have their own sort of districts, but there is intermingling as well
  12. [10/16/2013 5:48:22 PM] Kitten: the Luxuriae are the succubae, and there is a lot of variation in them
  13. [10/16/2013 5:48:27 PM] Isalba: nice . ..
  14. [10/16/2013 5:48:47 PM] Kitten: most luxuriae are red-skinned and very warm, with spaded tails and wings and horns
  15. [10/16/2013 5:48:51 PM] Kitten: but some have no wings and stuff
  16. [10/16/2013 5:48:56 PM] Kitten: there's lots of variation as i said
  17. [10/16/2013 5:49:12 PM] Kitten: because they're so very warm, they wear very very light 'clothing'
  18. [10/16/2013 5:49:16 PM] Kitten: usually no more than leather straps
  19. [10/16/2013 5:49:21 PM] Kitten: because any more would be somewhat uncomfortably hot
  20. [10/16/2013 5:49:40 PM] Kitten: they live in their own crowded sort of district mainly, and just lie around the place having sex most of the time
  21. [10/16/2013 5:49:49 PM] Isalba: hh hehe
  22. [10/16/2013 5:50:00 PM] Kitten: a lot of them, while primarily indulging in lust, also have another secondary sin that shows in their eyes
  23. [10/16/2013 5:50:11 PM] Kitten: for example, gluttonous succubae often have juicy orange eyes
  24. [10/16/2013 5:50:18 PM] Kitten: and can be somewhat squishier
  25. [10/16/2013 5:50:41 PM] Kitten: succubae, of course, are incredibly, incredibly lewd. they are creatures of impulse and excess and wild abandon
  26. [10/16/2013 5:50:49 PM] Kitten: when something sets them off, their lust just skyrockets
  27. [10/16/2013 5:51:11 PM] Kitten: many succubae who see their friends will just walk up and immediately take them from behind or some such thing
  28. [10/16/2013 5:51:18 PM] Kitten: sex is just a thing that happens and they're all into it
  29. [10/16/2013 5:51:34 PM] Kitten: it's also their primary bartering system. you don't tend to pay for things with money in their district
  30. [10/16/2013 5:51:51 PM] Kitten: overall they're a rather friendly sort of daemon when they're not being predatory, when they're just in their own society
  31. [10/16/2013 5:52:03 PM] Kitten: because they're focused on pleasure and sex and things so they like to feel good
  32. [10/16/2013 5:52:06 PM] Isalba: good lord i love them
  33. [10/16/2013 5:52:40 PM] Kitten: everything about their bodies is calculated to be arousing, from the shape to the warmth to the scent to the flawless, soft and supple red skin
  34. [10/16/2013 5:52:55 PM] Kitten: they each have an etched pentagram tattoo on their lower abdomen, which serves as a sort of control panel for lewd features
  35. [10/16/2013 5:53:07 PM] Kitten: the main one being the emergence of their big, hard cocks
  36. [10/16/2013 5:53:37 PM] Isalba: i .. .
  37. [10/16/2013 5:53:41 PM] Kitten: everything about them is designed to ensnare people so they're pretty good at that. they just naturally know how to take you to incredible heights of pleasure
  38. [10/16/2013 5:54:05 PM] Kitten: they have lots of fun features too. like the spade of their tail can vibrate~
  39. [10/16/2013 5:54:18 PM] Kitten: they're very fun daemons
  40. [10/16/2013 5:54:49 PM] Isalba: i-i 've noticed...
  41. [10/16/2013 5:55:03 PM] Kitten: they're the ones i primarily play around with, but there's others too if you want to hear about those
  42. [10/16/2013 5:55:37 PM] Isalba: yes
  43. [10/16/2013 5:55:43 PM] Isalba: I Love Daemons
  44. [10/16/2013 5:55:46 PM] Isalba: all of them
  45. [10/16/2013 5:55:51 PM] Isalba: of course i love lusty ones more but
  46. [10/16/2013 5:55:55 PM] Kitten: the next door daemons of the luxuriae are invidiae
  47. [10/16/2013 5:55:57 PM] Kitten: the envious ones
  48. [10/16/2013 5:56:24 PM] Kitten: they tend to have human-like skin, many of them have poofy blonde hair (regardless of skin color) and they mostly have ram-like horns and sharp, analytical green eyes
  49. [10/16/2013 5:56:40 PM] Kitten: they're very fussy and concerned with details and, of course, incredibly, blindly jealous
  50. [10/16/2013 5:56:57 PM] Kitten: they kind of get the short end of the stick because their sin is not any fun at all. it's incredibly painful
  51. [10/16/2013 5:57:11 PM] Kitten: they want what everyone else has and it hurts and it eats away at them like acid
  52. [10/16/2013 5:57:19 PM] Isalba: oo ... poor ..
  53. [10/16/2013 5:57:29 PM] Kitten: oh i forgot to mention, succubus fluids are alll lavender and sweet and very addictive
  54. [10/16/2013 5:57:36 PM] Kitten: invidius fluids are very acidic and poisonous
  55. [10/16/2013 5:57:38 PM] Isalba: .....!!!!!
  56. [10/16/2013 5:57:43 PM] Isalba: o-oh poor guys ...
  57. [10/16/2013 5:57:56 PM] Kitten: oh also. everyone in tartarus is female
  58. [10/16/2013 5:57:59 PM] Kitten: there's no particular reason for this
  59. [10/16/2013 5:58:07 PM] Kitten: it's just because it's my setting and girls are suteki
  60. [10/16/2013 5:58:16 PM] Kitten: a lot of them are rather androgynous though
  61. [10/16/2013 5:58:34 PM] Isalba: hehe
  62. [10/16/2013 5:58:43 PM] Kitten: basically because i end up playing everyone in the city, i'd rather just have them all be girls. i don't want to end up playing any dudes
  63. [10/16/2013 5:58:49 PM] Kitten: and they just ruin the whole feel of it
  64. [10/16/2013 5:59:05 PM] Isalba: Isalba scratches her head
  65. [10/16/2013 5:59:16 PM] Isalba: if that's how you feel! you ahve every right to do as such
  66. [10/16/2013 6:00:07 PM] Kitten: i just feel uncomfortable playing guys, or doing anything sexual with guys really ;;;; that's the only real reason
  67. [10/16/2013 6:00:20 PM] Kitten: but anyway
  68. [10/16/2013 6:00:43 PM] Isalba: and thats okay!
  69. [10/16/2013 6:00:56 PM] Kitten: the invidia district is composed of all squat, cubical, identical kinda crappy buildings
  70. [10/16/2013 6:01:04 PM] Isalba: gos h. ..
  71. [10/16/2013 6:01:18 PM] Kitten: because it's the only way they can coexist and not get intensely jealous just walking down the street
  72. [10/16/2013 6:01:26 PM] Kitten: most people find them unpleasant which only makes it worse for them
  73. [10/16/2013 6:01:50 PM] Kitten: there IS a personality under there and they DO have interests and hobbies and things but they're so utterly consumed with envy and self-hatred that it's hard to uncover that
  74. [10/16/2013 6:02:04 PM] Isalba: GO SH
  75. [10/16/2013 6:02:19 PM] Kitten: the way they prey on people is by infecting them with their own envy and having them tear themselves and others apart from this intense and painful envy
  76. [10/16/2013 6:02:33 PM] Isalba: o . . oh..mm...
  77. [10/16/2013 6:02:38 PM] Kitten: scary scary
  78. [10/16/2013 6:02:41 PM] Kitten: daemons are scary sometimes
  79. [10/16/2013 6:02:51 PM] Isalba: well its their point
  80. [10/16/2013 6:02:57 PM] Kitten: ironically invidiae are kind of cute
  81. [10/16/2013 6:03:17 PM] Kitten: with the ram horns and fluffy hair and little sharp teeth and their pickiness and perfectionism
  82. [10/16/2013 6:03:31 PM] Kitten: so it's interesting to actually become friends with one
  83. [10/16/2013 6:03:36 PM] Kitten: because it is possible and it helps them a lot
  84. [10/16/2013 6:03:43 PM] Isalba: w. .. wow ...
  85. [10/16/2013 6:03:46 PM] Isalba: youre making me blush
  86. [10/16/2013 6:04:20 PM] Kitten: one invidius character is Lucia who has a deep and passionate love of sweets and has her own ice cream shop
  87. [10/16/2013 6:04:41 PM] Kitten: so even though she's all hard and spiteful she still gets really into making this super super cute ice cream with sprinkles and decorations and things
  88. [10/16/2013 6:05:08 PM] Kitten: because really she loves it and is passionate about it and wants to share it even, it's just that because of the way she was born, her personality is drowning in envy
  89. [10/16/2013 6:05:17 PM] Isalba: WOW
  90. [10/16/2013 6:05:18 PM] Isalba: wo w. . .

  96. [10/16/2013 6:06:10 PM] Isalba: y ES
  97. [10/16/2013 6:06:15 PM] Kitten: there's the irae
  98. [10/16/2013 6:06:17 PM] Kitten: the wrathful ones
  99. [10/16/2013 6:06:21 PM] Kitten: they are bastards
  100. [10/16/2013 6:06:41 PM] Isalba: well thats straightforward
  101. [10/16/2013 6:06:55 PM] Kitten: they have grey skin and short black hair and little pointy black horns and tails that end in a heavy spiky ball
  102. [10/16/2013 6:07:07 PM] Kitten: also, black tongues
  103. [10/16/2013 6:07:22 PM] Kitten: and sort of yellowish eyes
  104. [10/16/2013 6:07:36 PM] Isalba: h o t
  105. [10/16/2013 6:07:41 PM] Kitten: they wear grey uniforms and serve as the pseudo-police force
  106. [10/16/2013 6:07:56 PM] Kitten: they are very very sadistic and their job is basically to just go around spreading fear and collecting money
  107. [10/16/2013 6:08:13 PM] Kitten: they carry very heavy batons and their main Thing is that they have a raging inferno of wrath within them
  108. [10/16/2013 6:08:17 PM] Kitten: that is only barely contained
  109. [10/16/2013 6:08:30 PM] Kitten: so they're very fire themed and can do fire things
  110. [10/16/2013 6:08:33 PM] Isalba: GOOd lord
  111. [10/16/2013 6:08:43 PM] Kitten: they also make rattlesnake sounds a lot when they're being predatory or taking delight in causing pain
  112. [10/16/2013 6:08:54 PM] Kitten: with their tongues
  113. [10/16/2013 6:08:59 PM] Isalba: oh god
  114. [10/16/2013 6:09:09 PM] Isalba: its funny b/c im going ''GOD'' and were talking about demons he heh eh
  115. [10/16/2013 6:09:14 PM] Kitten: huhuhu
  116. [10/16/2013 6:09:22 PM] Kitten: the thing is that they usually don't kill people
  117. [10/16/2013 6:09:45 PM] Kitten: they just love breaking bones and things, seeing people lying there broken and crying
  118. [10/16/2013 6:09:49 PM] Kitten: very very sadistic and very mean
  119. [10/16/2013 6:10:12 PM] Kitten: but again, that's how they're born. they have this burning rage within them and they just have to release it on something
  120. [10/16/2013 6:10:23 PM] Kitten: the only catharsis
  121. [10/16/2013 6:10:46 PM] Kitten: they're also actually carnivores. the invidiae are herbivores (and are jealous of meat eaters)
  122. [10/16/2013 6:10:55 PM] Isalba: (of course they are)
  123. [10/16/2013 6:11:09 PM] Kitten: so they have a pretty much 85% meat diet with Some Other Stuff thrown in
  124. [10/16/2013 6:11:19 PM] Kitten: their teeth are very good for ripping and tearing flesh
  125. [10/16/2013 6:11:30 PM] Kitten: but again, they are still people
  126. [10/16/2013 6:11:49 PM] Kitten: there was a character who had the ability to manipulate the subconscious going through tartarus and 'fixing' daemons at random
  127. [10/16/2013 6:11:56 PM] Isalba: 0o0
  128. [10/16/2013 6:12:20 PM] Kitten: it turns out that when you alleviate the burning inferno from an ira they have the opportunity to adapt it into a different flame
  129. [10/16/2013 6:12:24 PM] Kitten: one of passion and ambition
  130. [10/16/2013 6:12:28 PM] Kitten: and they end up being rather dependable
  131. [10/16/2013 6:12:38 PM] Isalba: WOW
  132. [10/16/2013 6:12:40 PM] Isalba: THATS SO COOL
  133. [10/16/2013 6:13:01 PM] Kitten: the subdued irae are actually very interesting
  134. [10/16/2013 6:13:13 PM] Kitten: because they still have that hard edge and the carnivore thing and they're all rattly and cool and uniformed
  135. [10/16/2013 6:13:33 PM] Kitten: but now they're in control of themselves and aren't being driven by this all-consuming, painful flame of wrath
  136. [10/16/2013 6:13:45 PM] Kitten: so they're very cool to befriend in my opinion
  137. [10/16/2013 6:13:45 PM] Isalba: go sh
  138. [10/16/2013 6:14:06 PM] Kitten: they live in their own district and almost all of them are officers and subjugators
  139. [10/16/2013 6:14:22 PM] Kitten: the main building for the Subjugators is this gigantic faceless black monolith
  140. [10/16/2013 6:14:30 PM] Kitten: their tears and blood and Other STuff are also black by the way
  141. [10/16/2013 6:14:33 PM] Kitten: kind of charred motif
  142. [10/16/2013 6:14:43 PM] Isalba: wow ..
  143. [10/16/2013 6:14:59 PM] Kitten: they're pretty rowdy with each other and swear a lot and tear messily into meat and whatnot
  144. [10/16/2013 6:15:24 PM] Kitten: and they're also just very very cool in general. even though they're consumed by this flame of wrath it's all contained. they're cool and calculating in their own way
  145. [10/16/2013 6:15:38 PM] Kitten: but you know it's just burning out of control
  146. [10/16/2013 6:15:45 PM] Kitten: juuuuust behind their sadistic eyes and wicked grin
  147. [10/16/2013 6:15:57 PM] Kitten: next ones?
  148. [10/16/2013 6:16:17 PM] Isalba: yESS Yes yes yes yes yes yes
  149. [10/16/2013 6:16:24 PM] Kitten: the Socordiae are actually very interesting
  150. [10/16/2013 6:16:27 PM] Kitten: they're the daemons of sloth
  151. [10/16/2013 6:16:42 PM] Kitten: they tend to have white hair and cool blue eyes and a reserved, cool demeanor
  152. [10/16/2013 6:16:47 PM] Kitten: quiet and calm
  153. [10/16/2013 6:16:59 PM] Kitten: but they are, ironically, incredibly hardworking and dependable
  154. [10/16/2013 6:17:07 PM] Kitten: they act as servants and they work tirelessly
  155. [10/16/2013 6:17:15 PM] Kitten: wouldn't expect that, right?
  156. [10/16/2013 6:17:20 PM] Isalba: n
  157. [10/16/2013 6:17:21 PM] Isalba: ope
  158. [10/16/2013 6:17:25 PM] Kitten: here's the catch
  159. [10/16/2013 6:17:30 PM] Kitten: they become your servant
  160. [10/16/2013 6:17:32 PM] Kitten: and they work so, so hard
  161. [10/16/2013 6:17:36 PM] Kitten: they're perfect
  162. [10/16/2013 6:17:39 PM] Kitten: they do everything for you
  163. [10/16/2013 6:17:47 PM] Kitten: in fact, they work so hard that you never really have to do anything yourself
  164. [10/16/2013 6:17:57 PM] Isalba: I'm??
  165. [10/16/2013 6:17:59 PM] Isalba: ho w

  167. [10/16/2013 6:18:05 PM] Kitten: in short, they make you lazy
  168. [10/16/2013 6:18:08 PM] Isalba: OH
  169. [10/16/2013 6:18:09 PM] Kitten: by being so dependable
  170. [10/16/2013 6:18:13 PM] Isalba: THATS SO GOOD
  171. [10/16/2013 6:18:16 PM] Isalba: THAST PERFECT
  172. [10/16/2013 6:18:27 PM] Kitten: because why do anything when you can just get them to do it for you
  173. [10/16/2013 6:18:47 PM] Kitten: they're very composed. almost an entire race of butler types
  174. [10/16/2013 6:19:00 PM] Kitten: they all wear suits and things and are very sharp and spiffy
  175. [10/16/2013 6:19:10 PM] Kitten: their horns tend to start at the forehead and then slope backwards
  176. [10/16/2013 6:19:14 PM] Kitten: almost as if they've been slicked back
  177. [10/16/2013 6:19:32 PM] Isalba: GOD
  178. [10/16/2013 6:19:47 PM] Kitten: they're also incredibly intelligent. they're the epitome of cool and calculated. they're very logical
  179. [10/16/2013 6:19:53 PM] Kitten: kind of like the Jeeves archetype
  180. [10/16/2013 6:20:12 PM] Kitten: however, when they have time off, they do tend to laze around a lot
  181. [10/16/2013 6:20:20 PM] Kitten: and prefer very comfortable beds with an excess of cushions
  182. [10/16/2013 6:20:54 PM] Kitten: you can usually find them on their time off laying down with a book or sleeping
  183. [10/16/2013 6:20:57 PM] Kitten: which i think is kind of cool
  184. [10/16/2013 6:21:27 PM] Kitten: they value relaxation even though they're such hard workers
  185. [10/16/2013 6:21:36 PM] Isalba: GOD WOW

  190. [10/16/2013 6:22:29 PM] Kitten: with orange skin and orange eyes, and many of them are a little squishy but not all
  191. [10/16/2013 6:22:53 PM] Isalba: hee
  192. [10/16/2013 6:23:01 PM] Kitten: they're pretty fun. many of them are chefs. they loooove eating
  193. [10/16/2013 6:23:21 PM] Kitten: they have very very sensitive tongues and absolutely adore the different flavors of things
  194. [10/16/2013 6:23:49 PM] Kitten: most of them smell very appetizing, like pie or desserts and things
  195. [10/16/2013 6:24:05 PM] Kitten: and almost all of them share the same fetish
  196. [10/16/2013 6:24:12 PM] Kitten: being very very generous with food
  197. [10/16/2013 6:24:18 PM] Kitten: watching somebody get slowly squishier and squishier
  198. [10/16/2013 6:24:23 PM] Kitten: they llllllllooooooove that
  199. [10/16/2013 6:24:24 PM] Isalba: oo h h
  200. [10/16/2013 6:24:26 PM] Isalba: ldfsknh
  201. [10/16/2013 6:24:29 PM] Kitten: oh also
  202. [10/16/2013 6:24:37 PM] Kitten: daemons are parasites
  203. [10/16/2013 6:24:44 PM] Kitten: they have to do things to feed and gain energy
  204. [10/16/2013 6:24:46 PM] Isalba: Isalba ears perk up
  205. [10/16/2013 6:25:03 PM] Kitten: luxuriae (succubae) leech emotional energy
  206. [10/16/2013 6:25:09 PM] Kitten: especially through physical contact and sex
  207. [10/16/2013 6:25:17 PM] Kitten: they're also the primary consumers of souls
  208. [10/16/2013 6:26:11 PM] Isalba: purr
  209. [10/16/2013 6:26:13 PM] Kitten: and similarly, avaritiae feed by feeding others
  210. [10/16/2013 6:26:21 PM] Kitten: socordiae feed off of spreading lust
  211. [10/16/2013 6:26:22 PM] Kitten: etc
  212. [10/16/2013 6:26:44 PM] Isalba: lust?
  213. [10/16/2013 6:26:46 PM] Kitten: interestingly irae kind of work the opposite way in that they have to unleash their wrath to relieve it or it'll get to be too much
  214. [10/16/2013 6:26:49 PM] Kitten: er, sloth, sorry
  215. [10/16/2013 6:27:00 PM] Kitten: but of course it's not a relief for long
  216. [10/16/2013 6:27:21 PM] Kitten: anyway
  217. [10/16/2013 6:27:34 PM] Kitten: avaritiae are very wasteful and they like that
  218. [10/16/2013 6:27:54 PM] Kitten: because gluttony includes many forms of consumption
  219. [10/16/2013 6:28:00 PM] Isalba: y yes
  220. [10/16/2013 6:28:18 PM] Kitten: oh also succubae can feed very well off of cum
  221. [10/16/2013 6:28:19 PM] Kitten: jsyk
  222. [10/16/2013 6:28:41 PM] Isalba: uR GH
  223. [10/16/2013 6:28:42 PM] Kitten: the avaritiae don't tend to have horns, and their tails usually end in a spike
  224. [10/16/2013 6:28:46 PM] Kitten: with which to pick up food obviously
  225. [10/16/2013 6:29:07 PM] Kitten: they really like hugs and are generally friendly and cuddly
  226. [10/16/2013 6:29:17 PM] Kitten: but they will be rather generous with food and you have to watch out for that
  227. [10/16/2013 6:29:28 PM] Kitten: the food they prepare becomes addictive
  228. [10/16/2013 6:29:36 PM] Kitten: and it induces rapid weight gain
  229. [10/16/2013 6:30:06 PM] Kitten: they live in a sort of suburby type place
  230. [10/16/2013 6:30:14 PM] Kitten: the succubus district is more like a cramped Chinatown area
  231. [10/16/2013 6:30:23 PM] Kitten: but there are also richer succubae who live elsewhere
  232. [10/16/2013 6:30:27 PM] Isalba: vibrates
  233. [10/16/2013 6:30:36 PM] Kitten: vibrates?
  234. [10/16/2013 6:31:23 PM] Kitten: are you vibrating
  235. [10/16/2013 6:31:37 PM] Isalba: ye s
  236. [10/16/2013 6:31:44 PM] Isalba: plaease go on
  237. [10/16/2013 6:32:01 PM] Kitten: two more
  238. [10/16/2013 6:32:07 PM] Kitten: and these two hold the most political power
  239. [10/16/2013 6:32:25 PM] Isalba: GOOD
  240. [10/16/2013 6:32:47 PM] Kitten: oh wait whoops
  241. [10/16/2013 6:32:57 PM] Kitten: i got the names for greed and gluttony mixed up
  242. [10/16/2013 6:33:05 PM] Kitten: gulae are gluttony
  243. [10/16/2013 6:33:07 PM] Isalba: yeah i was thinking about that
  244. [10/16/2013 6:33:17 PM] Isalba: but since its 3:30 am i didnt really say it but please go on
  245. [10/16/2013 6:33:20 PM] Isalba: im not lseeping until you tell me
  246. [10/16/2013 6:33:29 PM] Kitten: to be fair greed and gluttony are similar
  247. [10/16/2013 6:33:33 PM] Kitten: but anyway
  248. [10/16/2013 6:33:43 PM] Kitten: the central part of Tartarus is a city of great and towering spires
  249. [10/16/2013 6:33:51 PM] Kitten: skyscrapers, more or less
  250. [10/16/2013 6:34:00 PM] Kitten: Tartarus is a surprisingly modern place
  251. [10/16/2013 6:34:07 PM] Kitten: because it takes inspiration from the modern human world
  252. [10/16/2013 6:34:21 PM] Kitten: lots of technological things have daemonic counterparts
  253. [10/16/2013 6:35:03 PM] Kitten: the city of spires is split in half, and one half of them is very very flashy and extravagant and full of casinoes and corporations
  254. [10/16/2013 6:35:11 PM] Kitten: and that is the avaritia half
  255. [10/16/2013 6:35:47 PM] Isalba: m m..
  256. [10/16/2013 6:35:48 PM] Kitten: avaritiae tend to have blue skin and silver or violet eyes
  257. [10/16/2013 6:36:01 PM] Kitten: their motivation is pretty obvious
  258. [10/16/2013 6:36:05 PM] Kitten: they want to Have Stuff
  259. [10/16/2013 6:36:12 PM] Kitten: wealth and power and material possessions
  260. [10/16/2013 6:36:46 PM] Kitten: greed and pride are the ones that we have not yet delved into in the RP where most of these were fleshed out so there may be fewer or shallower details about them
  261. [10/16/2013 6:37:19 PM] Kitten: but yes, they are quite obviously very greedy and selfish. they run many of the big corporations as CEOs and things
  262. [10/16/2013 6:37:26 PM] Kitten: they tend to have multiple small horns made of precious metals
  263. [10/16/2013 6:37:39 PM] Isalba: GOD ...
  264. [10/16/2013 6:37:53 PM] Kitten: they love amassing wealth and they love spending it, they love flaunting it and they love taking it away from other people
  265. [10/16/2013 6:37:57 PM] Kitten: so yes, many of them are also loan sharks
  266. [10/16/2013 6:38:17 PM] Isalba: heh eh
  267. [10/16/2013 6:38:25 PM] Kitten: and, in fact, their sharp teeth are somewhat sharklike
  268. [10/16/2013 6:38:42 PM] Kitten: but they still tend ot be rather attractive, just to lord more things over people (mostly invidiae)
  269. [10/16/2013 6:39:10 PM] Kitten: they run a lot of casinoes and absolutely nothing makes them happier or more satisfied than things made of solid, weighty gold
  270. [10/16/2013 6:39:22 PM] Kitten: but these daemons, like most daemons, are never truly satisfied
  271. [10/16/2013 6:39:32 PM] Kitten: in their mind they hardly even see the wealth that they've amassed
  272. [10/16/2013 6:39:35 PM] Isalba: goOD
  273. [10/16/2013 6:39:41 PM] Kitten: they only see all the wealth that they haven't yet amassed
  274. [10/16/2013 6:39:57 PM] Kitten: and they want it ssssssssoooooooooo badly
  275. [10/16/2013 6:40:07 PM] Kitten: it nags at them constantly. they want more and more and more no matter how much they have now
  276. [10/16/2013 6:40:15 PM] Kitten: being a daemon is often rather painful
  277. [10/16/2013 6:40:33 PM] Kitten: they do, however, have a special interest
  278. [10/16/2013 6:40:37 PM] Kitten: they really really love games
  279. [10/16/2013 6:40:50 PM] Kitten: they love card games and mahjong and board games and billiards and all kinds of games
  280. [10/16/2013 6:40:53 PM] Kitten: they're really into it
  281. [10/16/2013 6:41:01 PM] Kitten: which is part of why they have so many casinoes, other than the obvious motivation
  282. [10/16/2013 6:41:17 PM] Kitten: so they can actually be pretty fun to hang out with, on some level
  283. [10/16/2013 6:41:49 PM] Kitten: they're also really really into drinking. they love all the different varieties of drink
  284. [10/16/2013 6:41:51 PM] Kitten: so they have many bars
  285. [10/16/2013 6:42:06 PM] Kitten: so yeah, on that side of the city you have all these buildings competing to be the flashiest
  286. [10/16/2013 6:42:22 PM] Kitten: and on the OTHER side of the city, you have a ton of spires who are competing to be the tallest and most elegant
  287. [10/16/2013 6:42:35 PM] Isalba: heh e...
  288. [10/16/2013 6:42:38 PM] Kitten: the Superbiae are the most politically powerful of all the daemons and they tend to be very powerful in other ways too
  289. [10/16/2013 6:43:00 PM] Kitten: they're quite literally large and in charge
  290. [10/16/2013 6:43:41 PM] Kitten: like the Luxuriae they tend to have red skin
  291. [10/16/2013 6:43:51 PM] Kitten: they also have big big powerful wings and tend to have long black horns
  292. [10/16/2013 6:44:06 PM] Kitten: they wear suits and good god do they love being better than everyone
  293. [10/16/2013 6:44:36 PM] Kitten: their side of the city thinks itself above all of that debauchery that happens over there
  294. [10/16/2013 6:44:47 PM] Isalba: H EHE
  295. [10/16/2013 6:44:54 PM] Kitten: they're the trendy ones. chic and flashy and modern
  296. [10/16/2013 6:45:39 PM] Kitten: they go to nice and flashy cafes and buy expensive drinks and flaunt the fact that they're better than you
  297. [10/16/2013 6:46:13 PM] Kitten: they also get very very indignant a lot. they demand respect
  298. [10/16/2013 6:46:26 PM] Kitten: and it is true that they are rather powerful
  299. [10/16/2013 6:46:30 PM] Isalba: gos h..
  300. [10/16/2013 6:46:55 PM] Kitten: i think the best way to explain them is to explain how i metaphorically laid out the mindscape of one of them
  301. [10/16/2013 6:47:12 PM] Kitten: it was represented as this towering pillar. huuuuge. stretching way up into the sky
  302. [10/16/2013 6:47:19 PM] Kitten: halfway up was obscured by a white foggy mist
  303. [10/16/2013 6:47:37 PM] Kitten: and at the top were many many mirrors facing inward
  304. [10/16/2013 6:47:57 PM] Kitten: showing this big and powerful daemon sitting on a throne on a pedestal atop the tower, showing them how great they were
  305. [10/16/2013 6:48:18 PM] Kitten: and then actually sitting in the throne is this little daemon girl in her little suit
  306. [10/16/2013 6:48:39 PM] Kitten: she can't even really see anyone from on top of her tower and she's never truly connected with anyone
  307. [10/16/2013 6:48:55 PM] Isalba: oh ...
  308. [10/16/2013 6:49:01 PM] Kitten: they're all just far away, so far beneath her that she can't even understand them or empathize with them
  309. [10/16/2013 6:49:43 PM] Kitten: the character that could manipulate the subconscious lowered her tower and took her out of the throne and took her away and put her on top of a flowery hill
  310. [10/16/2013 6:49:57 PM] Kitten: a small hill. a gentle one
  311. [10/16/2013 6:50:03 PM] Isalba: wow ...
  312. [10/16/2013 6:50:06 PM] Kitten: so she can still feel above people but she can see them now
  313. [10/16/2013 6:50:12 PM] Kitten: and she can walk down and maybe talk to them
  314. [10/16/2013 6:50:29 PM] Isalba: w ow
  315. [10/16/2013 6:50:32 PM] Kitten: and something interesting happened
  316. [10/16/2013 6:50:40 PM] Kitten: when she looked down and realized what she actually looked like
  317. [10/16/2013 6:50:44 PM] Kitten: she was, of course, rather shocked
  318. [10/16/2013 6:50:59 PM] Kitten: and in the real world she sort of slumped forward, as most of them did upon having their sins drained
  319. [10/16/2013 6:51:01 PM] Kitten: and then
  320. [10/16/2013 6:51:04 PM] Kitten: started shrinking
  321. [10/16/2013 6:51:23 PM] Kitten: like she actually physically shrank into the little girl
  322. [10/16/2013 6:51:24 PM] Isalba: OO h . ..
  323. [10/16/2013 6:51:28 PM] Kitten: because that was her true form
  324. [10/16/2013 6:51:38 PM] Isalba: .. . .. o h h....
  325. [10/16/2013 6:51:58 PM] Kitten: so that's all the daemon types
  326. [10/16/2013 6:51:59 PM] Kitten: but THEN
  327. [10/16/2013 6:52:00 PM] Kitten: BUT THEN
  328. [10/16/2013 6:52:08 PM] Isalba: !!!!!!!!!!!!!
  329. [10/16/2013 6:52:11 PM] Kitten: so this giant city is in this gigantic cavern right
  330. [10/16/2013 6:52:22 PM] Kitten: carved into one ENTIRE WALL of this huuuuge cave
  331. [10/16/2013 6:52:35 PM] Kitten: is one gigantic palace. unbelievably massive
  332. [10/16/2013 6:52:50 PM] Kitten: its pillars and statues loom over the spires of the city, dwarfing them
  333. [10/16/2013 6:53:00 PM] Kitten: always there. always watching
  334. [10/16/2013 6:53:18 PM] Kitten: and that is the palace of Baal
  335. [10/16/2013 6:53:31 PM] Isalba: WOW ...
  336. [10/16/2013 6:53:33 PM] Kitten: she is the Daemon King of Tartarus
  337. [10/16/2013 6:53:40 PM] Kitten: she is unbelievably powerful
  338. [10/16/2013 6:53:48 PM] Kitten: she can, with a gesture, destroy absolutely all of it
  339. [10/16/2013 6:53:53 PM] Kitten: and with another gesture, rebuild it in an instant
  340. [10/16/2013 6:53:59 PM] Kitten: she may have already done this. you wouldn't know
  341. [10/16/2013 6:54:02 PM] Kitten: she's basically a god
  342. [10/16/2013 6:54:17 PM] Isalba: JAEUS
  343. [10/16/2013 6:54:18 PM] Isalba: JEUS S
  344. [10/16/2013 6:54:18 PM] Isalba: CHRIST
  345. [10/16/2013 6:54:29 PM] Kitten: nobody is allowed to just walk into her massive throne room without reason (basically unless she summons them)
  346. [10/16/2013 6:54:35 PM] Kitten: all daemons are absolutely TERRIFIED of her
  347. [10/16/2013 6:54:48 PM] Kitten: she is an incomprehensible god creature of near infinite power
  348. [10/16/2013 6:55:11 PM] Kitten: her actual form is perhaps somewhat underwhelming
  349. [10/16/2013 6:55:34 PM] Kitten: she basically looks like a 19 year old girl with long black hair, wearing a red blazer-type thing and a black skirt with black thigh-highs and brown mary-janes
  350. [10/16/2013 6:55:49 PM] Kitten: with long, thin, curling black horns protruding from her forehead
  351. [10/16/2013 6:56:01 PM] Kitten: and her eyes are these shimmering rainbow wheels of color
  352. [10/16/2013 6:56:07 PM] Kitten: shifting and spinning
  353. [10/16/2013 6:56:10 PM] Isalba: oo ...
  354. [10/16/2013 6:56:32 PM] Kitten: she looks upon you with an unknowable intelligence and wow yeah. everyone is really scared of her a llot
  355. [10/16/2013 6:56:45 PM] Kitten: the subconscious-altering character looked into her mind and just saw
  356. [10/16/2013 6:56:52 PM] Kitten: this gigantic shifting cloud of colored cubes
  357. [10/16/2013 6:56:57 PM] Kitten: huuuuuuuge and incomprehensible
  358. [10/16/2013 6:57:08 PM] Kitten: all of them moving and shifting and turning and connecting and forming shapes and patterns
  359. [10/16/2013 6:57:20 PM] Kitten: and it reacts to everything she learns or hears
  360. [10/16/2013 6:57:32 PM] Kitten: her intellect is incalculable
  361. [10/16/2013 6:57:38 PM] Isalba: WO W...
  362. [10/16/2013 6:57:43 PM] Kitten: yeah. she's serious business
  363. [10/16/2013 6:57:47 PM] Kitten: how ev er
  364. [10/16/2013 6:58:02 PM] Kitten: this character (who is a big cutie) basically just went up and hugged Baal
  365. [10/16/2013 6:58:11 PM] Kitten: something that no one would ever consider doing
  366. [10/16/2013 6:58:23 PM] Kitten: and Baal just smiled and laughed and hugged back
  367. [10/16/2013 6:58:25 PM] Kitten: she is actually
  368. [10/16/2013 6:58:26 PM] Isalba: GOSH
  369. [10/16/2013 6:58:28 PM] Kitten: rather reasonable
  370. [10/16/2013 6:58:29 PM] Kitten: and pleasant
  371. [10/16/2013 6:58:34 PM] Isalba: THAT S so nic e. ..
  372. [10/16/2013 6:58:38 PM] Isalba: i lo ve. .
  373. [10/16/2013 6:58:40 PM] Isalba: love love love
  374. [10/16/2013 6:58:51 PM] Kitten: love love love?
  375. [10/16/2013 6:59:17 PM] Kitten: anyway yeah no one had actually touched her in a long time and she liked it
  376. [10/16/2013 6:59:34 PM] Kitten: she loves her daemons. she almost thinks of them as her children but also thinks that that would be too presumptuous of her
  377. [10/16/2013 6:59:54 PM] Kitten: and when this character went around fixing them and showing them how they could be so much more than just simple daemons, she was very pleased
  378. [10/16/2013 7:00:08 PM] Kitten: people think so poorly of daemons, they think they're just simple creatures consumed by their sin
  379. [10/16/2013 7:00:21 PM] Kitten: but underneath that they are people and they are valuable
  380. [10/16/2013 7:00:39 PM] Kitten: and she was very happy that they were finally able to learn that
  381. [10/16/2013 7:00:54 PM] Kitten: so she basically made the character an agent of Baal and told her to keep helping people
  382. [10/16/2013 7:01:26 PM] Kitten: but don't get me wrong. Baal is terrifying. she's a nice person but she's terrifying. she can destroy you and if you test that she will destroy you
  383. [10/16/2013 7:01:51 PM] Kitten: and she's also so, so, so incredibly intelligent that it is of course very intimidating
  384. [10/16/2013 7:01:53 PM] Isalba: GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD
  385. [10/16/2013 7:01:55 PM] Isalba: GOOD
  386. [10/16/2013 7:01:56 PM] Isalba: g ood
  387. [10/16/2013 7:02:00 PM] Isalba: god im squealnig
