Azailia - March 16, 2006 05:21 AM (GMT)
Well, I'm always up for some DMC... yaaay... but you already know that.

i think it's safe to say Kaiser's gonna get that role by Default

<< He's not, actually. Chris said that Dante and Vergil would be NPC due to his plotted idea... or something.
Otherwise, yes, the Sparda brothers would be my SLAVES. TEEHEHEHEHE.
((P.S. APOC WHERE IS YOUR MG POST!?))
ChrisOfTheDead - March 16, 2006 02:33 PM (GMT)
Yus, it be trues, Dante and Vergil be missing, and due to a little rift on Mallet Island, Demons are pouring back into the human realm. Without a Dark Knight to defend them, more people must step up to defend the human realm. Of course, this isn't to say our favorite demon brothers won't be showing up at all, they just won't be around to pull our asses out of the fire until later. ^_^

I'm in, I have a character that would fit into this perfectly and even if for some reason he doesn't, I have another couple ideas I wanna try.
Kamui de' Tempest - March 17, 2006 03:45 AM (GMT)
I'm down for a good scrap. I'm all in. :war: ;> :bang:
ChrisOfTheDead - March 17, 2006 04:33 AM (GMT)
Demons available will be halfling offspring of greater demons. As Vergil and Dante were the offspring of Sparda, your characters will be the offspring of other legendary creatures.
These are the Demons that sport offspring thus far.
Dracula, Lord of the Undead
Bhaal, Lord of Destruction
Diablo, Lord of Terror
Mephisto, Lord of Hatred
Lilith, Mistress of Lust
Beliar, Demon of Earth
Alastor, Master of Executions
Andariel, Maiden of Anguish
Duriel, Prince of Pain
Arioch, Demon of Vengeance
Ashtaroth, Demon of Vanity and Sloth
Asmodeus, Creature of Judgement
Azathoth, Demon of Chaos
Azazel, Demon of Conflict
Dagon, Demon of the Ocean
Hecate, Demoness of Death
Leonard, Demon of Sorcery
Lucifer, Demon of the Air
Your parent would be the source of your power, and would effect your Devil Trigger when you are allowed to use it.
Also, none of the halflings are as adept as Dante or Vergil right now. A bullet to the brain, while annoying to Dante, would seriously injure, if not kill you right now. As you all progress you will unlock new Demonology Powers. Some will be able to summon familiars, command the undead, or outright wield the Devil Trigger pretty quickly.
Devil arms will also effect you and the Styles you can learn, much like in DMC3.
The basic styles effect your Devil Powers and the weapons you excel with.IE, Gunslinger would give you demonic powers with firearms, able to charge dark energy into each bullet. Trickster would give you superb agility, making you able to run up walls, kinda like spider man.
Kamui de' Tempest - March 17, 2006 04:54 AM (GMT)
Sounds good. Keep it coming. I am a huge fan of DMC so this is definently something I would be interested in. I have a couple of questions though. The style upgrades, how will that be put into effect as well as weapon upgrades. And also, in DMC 2 there were Devil Trigger upgrades in the form of Hearts(like Aerial Heart, Chrono Heart, etc...) or something to the like... will that be put into play as well? In any case keep the creative juices flowing. Oh, how long 'til the bad boy is up and running? :booze:
WarriorZoalord - March 17, 2006 04:35 PM (GMT)
Dracula's brat, that would be a halfvampire person right, assuming that in DMC he's a vampire.
ChrisOfTheDead - March 17, 2006 04:59 PM (GMT)
Well, in DMC2, the "Hearts" were pieces of Dante's mothers amulet. Not all Demons will have an enhancing amulet, but some will.
Higher power demons like Destruction offspring won't need any enhancements because they will develop such powers naturally, the downside is these powers need to evolve over time, those with amulets can just use the powers with the "heart" installed.
I'm also still working on the Style and Weapon upgrades.
Kamui de' Tempest - March 17, 2006 07:17 PM (GMT)
Well, cool. I think I'll call being a destruction demon. Maybe the style and weapon upgrading can be put into effect by way of giving exp on the usage of said style or weapon in post content.
Kaiser Dragoon - March 17, 2006 09:08 PM (GMT)
Sounds like fun, now to decide which lineage to follow :D
Teknoguyver - March 17, 2006 09:42 PM (GMT)
I call the Leonard, Demon of Sorcery lineage.
ChrisOfTheDead - March 18, 2006 03:41 AM (GMT)
Well, no lineage is blocked off at a certain number, though I'd like to keep things down to around a max of 4 siblings per demon.
Weapons and Style EXP is something I hadn't thought of, but might be able to do and simplify enough to stick with it.
Azailia - March 18, 2006 04:02 AM (GMT)
Hmmm. Demoness of death, or Mistress of Lust... :smirk:
Which lineage to choose...
WarriorZoalord - March 18, 2006 04:40 PM (GMT)
I think lust would suit you best Rika :P
of course we arent the actual demon on the list, you'd be playing an offspringof someone on the list meaning you can pick any of 'em Rika :P you dont have to stick with the female beings.
Azailia - March 18, 2006 05:36 PM (GMT)
I know and, I know.
Those were just the first two to pop out at me. >_> Seduction is a fun power to have, but then again, so is death, so we shall see.
XD
ChrisOfTheDead - March 18, 2006 06:43 PM (GMT)
Ok, well, you can use just about any type of weaponry you please, just nothing futureistic like beam weapons or energ sabers. This goes for your guns and guns only. Melee weapons are going to be your familiars/devil arm.
Familiars are weapons you excel in using for melee. Vergils Yamato for example. Plain old human weapon, but deadly in his head.
Devil Arms will be specially imbued demonic weapons that usually take on an element or something of the sort.
Styles will be varied once I managed to come up with a few more. The basic ones are from DMC3
Gunslinger
Swordmaster
Trickster
Royal Guard
Quicksilver
And the shadow clone one Dante gains near the end.
Kamui de' Tempest - March 18, 2006 06:55 PM (GMT)
Just curious, would we be able to use two styles at once at a slower exp rate or no?
Sparky - March 18, 2006 08:12 PM (GMT)

Was thinking about Hecate myself or Asmodeus for judgement, defintiely one of the two.
WarriorZoalord - March 19, 2006 12:33 PM (GMT)
if i descide to join, it would probably be as a child of Dracula.
Azailia - March 19, 2006 05:38 PM (GMT)
Do you want DF's posted or what, Chris head?
WarriorZoalord - March 19, 2006 06:12 PM (GMT)
generally DF's arent posted until the RPG starts, os just wait for Chris to get everything together.
ChrisOfTheDead - March 19, 2006 07:34 PM (GMT)
Basic DF setup, still working on a simple EXP system.
Name: Darien
Sex:Male
Age: 16
Eye Color: Azure blue.
Hair Color:Dirty blonde
Height: 5'11
Weight: 145 lbs
Lineage: Hecate
Primary Weapon: 454 Cassul
Familiar: Scythe
Devil Arms: Uriels Scythe(Deaths Scythe)
Devil Trigger: Inactive
Style: Royal Guard
Backround: Darien is a direct desendant of the Demoness of Death, Hecate, the one who commands Uriel, death iself in his mission of unlife. Hecate birthed several children in her existence, but only one was ever half human, Darien. Nothing is known of Dariens father save he was a mistake on Uriels half. He was a shadow among humans and few know of his actions in life. The man was not to have died so soon though. He had a great task before him to complete. As he could not do so now, the circle of fate was broken, and Hecate would need to relinquish his soul back to a body. However, time had passed and his body had decayed. The man was then given a choice, move on to the next life free of fates bindings, or remain with her an eternity attempting fix the mistake her servant Uriel has made. In exchange for this though, Hecate promised his bloodline would live on through her. As such, she became pregnant with Darien. Leaving the child in human care, Hecate and the man set about secretly preparing their child to complete the task his father could not. What task that is though noone knows. Darien is a very outspoken young man, never caring for what others think and never thinking about what others care for. His actions can be brash and foolhardy, usually resulting in heavy injury for himself and those around him. Having never known his parents and even less about them, Darien sees himself as unbound. He has no ties to the world or it's peoples, he simply is who he is and travels accordingly, letting the wind take him. Recent events have drawn him to Mallet island, something there is calling to him and he knows not what it is yet.
Azailia - March 19, 2006 11:10 PM (GMT)
Thank you... all I really wanted was the layout.. not an actual DF thread.. but okay.
Kamui de' Tempest - March 20, 2006 12:02 AM (GMT)
Name: Oberon Van' Albträume
Sex: Male
Age: 23
Height: 6’1
Weight: 170
Eye Color: Ebony with slivers of Crimson
Hair Color: Ebony w/ Crimson tips/streaks
Skin Tone: Dark Caramel with hints of Crimson
Description:
Oberon is tall, dark, and brooding. His skin tone is a dark caramel complection with hints of crimson. Something like a blood filled candy. He has dark flowing hair that reaches to the small of his back with crimson tips and minor streaks. He has elf like ears that are hidden by his hair and pronounced canines. His fingers end in sharp nails. Prehaps the most disturbing feature of all is his ebony eye’s with slivers of crimson that are framed behind his curtain of hair. He wears a leather shirt and pants that are composed of multiple leather straps that have buckles of various sizes adorning his body and leather combat boots with multiple buckles. This is all topped of with a sleeveless trenchcoat with long flowing flaps and a long brimmed hat that sits snug and firm atop his head. He also wears four shoulder holsters to house his armaments with the sheathe usually attached to his hip but can be easily moved for flexibility.On occasion he can be seen wearing sun glasses to hide his startling eyes from others.
Lineage: Bhaal?
Primary Weapon:
Magnum Research Desert Eagle XIX 44 Mag, 6 Inch, Titanium Gold, 8rd,
Magnum Research Desert Eagle XIX 44 Mag, 6 Inch, Matte Chrome, 8rd, and twin
Model 500 Revolver - HIVIZFamiliar: Double Bladed Yamato (like from FFVII AC but it can separate into two to be wielded in each hand)
Devil Arms: Bhaal’s Finger (Double Bladed Masemune) (Same as the Yamato above but with Sephiroth’s swords length)
Devil Trigger: Inactive
Style: Sword Master, Trickster, Gunslinger
Backround: Oberon was born in the depth’s of Bhaal’s hellish realm in a harem pen where his mother had, over the passing of a millenium, made her home with other unfortunate women. In her own sense, Alice is a very mysterious woman. Very apt in the ways of sorcery, it was a wonder how she ended up in the hellish grasp of Bhaal himself for so long. All that is known of her is once Oberon was born she made a prompt escape to another realm of swift murder. In this realm the master was strangely vacant and Alice was suprisingly at ease there. Time in the realm of Earth passed as normal, but in the realm they where in time passed at an amazing rate. While in this realm Alice taught Oberon many different ways to defend himself and he grew an affinity for a certain double bladed sword they had seen in the armory. After his grueling training and reaching the age of 23 he was allowed to take one weapon of his choice. Much to his mother’s approval he chose a double bladed yamato. With his mothers blessing, she sent him through a portal to the Realm of Earth. A soft laughter was unheard behind him as he passed through.

Ok, I'll be setting up the DF thread shortly in it's proper section. The RPG will run along the same lines as the games, each section is split into around 20 mission like objectives, maybe less.
The first section will be on Mallet island from the first game. So, I leave it to you all to get your characters there.
Oh, and Rika, I need to talk to you about a specific few NPC's.
Azailia - March 20, 2006 04:52 AM (GMT)
No problemo.
Oh, and that shadow clone style you were talking about, is called Doppelganger.

Robert_Frois - April 13, 2006 01:04 PM (GMT)
I havent really played Devil May Cry, just the first one. I play Onimusha, I like those, not saying that DMC isnt good, played the first one thoughgt it was great but started the 2nd and couldnt get into it.
Azailia - April 13, 2006 01:08 PM (GMT)
I think a lot of people had that problem with DMC2. Even myself, and I'm a DMC freak...
Mainly cause of Dante and Vergil, but hey. <<'
DMC3 is the best though, in my opinion. Should play it, Rob. Or better yet, play the DMC3: Special Edition version.
>>' Even better.
Anddd uh... welcome to the lair.
Robert_Frois - April 13, 2006 01:16 PM (GMT)
