History Roleplay / DeusMortuus

[[http://deusmortuus.forumotion.net/ Deus Mortuus]] is a PlayByPostGame set within an [[TwentyMinutesIntoThePast alternate timeline of our own Earth in 2012]]. While the main cities of Earth to be played in are limited to a certain extent ([[BritainIsOnlyLondon London]], [[GloriousMotherRussia Irkutsk]], [[UsefulNotes/SouthAfrica Johannesburg]], [[UsefulNotes/Rome {{Rome}}]], [[{{Spexico}} Barcelona]], [[UsefulNotes/HongKong Hong Kong]], [[UsefulNotes/WashingtonDC Washington D.C.]], [[TheCapitalOfBrazilIsBuenosAires Rio de Janeiro]], [[UsefulNotes/{{Finland}} Helsinki]], and [[ThePope Vatican City]), players are also given the option to use a board titled "Elsewhere" in order to play out encounters in other places. The meat of the story, however, does not take place on Earth at all though. Instead, characters are able to pass through "tears" to travel to the land of fire and brimstone, {{Hell}}. While the place is essentially the Hell [[SarcasmMode we all know and love]], in this game it is referred to as [[AltumVidetur Inferis]]. Characters range from your typical civilian all the way to [[TheDevil Lucifer]] himself. The gameplay is rather unique in that players are given several different character types to choose from when creating their muses, each with their own set of powers, default skills, allowed equipment, and weaknesses. Powers gained for each level up, and those you have at level one, must be explained thoroughly as well.[[labelnote:Example]]One could not have overall pyrokinesis as an ability, but could use fireballs, summon walls of flame, put out flames, etc.[[/labelnote]]

* CallingYourAttack: A notable example is Cael. He even goes as far as announcing his 'shifts in stance'.

* LawfulStupid: Numerous Archangels, and the Angelic Host as a whole. To name some names, Akrasiel, Michael, Saraqael; who are all so ridiculously honourbound that it becomes narrow-minded before long.

* TheVoiceless: Saraqael, and also Metatron. Both are not TRUE examples of this trope, but close enough; Saraqael hardly talks, for any being of Angelic strength to hear his voice would probably start bleeding from the ears, and Metatron, being an entity whose purpose is essentially to be a knowledge collective, cannot speak in anything other than an untenable and unintelligible mashup of dozens of languages.

* Gorn: Most if not all fight threads.

* Troll: [[TheDevil Lucifer]]. Satan is a troll. How else should he be played?

* ActionGirl: Most female characters played. Maeve MacArtair; Tatyana Vladimirovna; The Jangmi twins; Yuuko Koizumi again, and even some more down the sociopath spectrum such as Alice Engelherz (aka [[CharacterNameAlias Alice the Chopper]]), one Adelaide Kingsford (when she brandishes her Evocation), Maisie Abernathy, Sister Katya Vetrov... the list really does go on.

* PoliceAreUseless: Considering they can't catch a prepubescent serial killer in Washington, D.C., this is played almost constantly.

''Demon Hunters'' are capable of learning abilities known as Evocations while in Inferis. These can manifest as anything really. Vehicles, weapons, skills and abilities, the possibilities are endless [[note]]within reason[[/note]]. It is possible to obtain ten of these abilities once you have reached [[ObsurdlyLowLevelCap level four]]. There is a specific gene passed along from parents which determines whether or not someone will be a Demon Hunter, and typically only arises in a family with said gene within their bloodline. This gene is what allows Demon Hunters to move between Earth and Inferis through tears with ease.
