I definitely like the idea of a nine-tiered hell;◊ it lets you make each layer vastly different from one another and cover multiple interpretations simultaneously. Let's go to Stygia!

Flesh is a design flaw.Seconded.
“Not a promise, not an oath, or a malediction or a curse. Inevitable." - Taylor HebertSo modernized The Divine Comedy it is.
Double post: I'll be starting the rp in a couple of days provided there is still interest.
Also a couple of things I'm considering:
-Spectral U-Boat Boss that launches ghost pirates as torpedos
-Jerkass Angel of Death Samael being the Mission Control.

Ooh, cool.
x5 Can I ask for a mix of both or is it already decided?
off the shitsSounds Crazy Awesome enough to work.
“Not a promise, not an oath, or a malediction or a curse. Inevitable." - Taylor HebertWell, it's going to be a modernized Dante at the very least, so quite a lot of original flavour...
...as well as removing some politically incorrect satires...

I love jerk-ass angels, just don't get too caught up in the Judeo-Christian mythology. I'd rather this not be a setting that flat-out confirms one religion.
Flesh is a design flaw.Well hard to do a dante meets Die Hard without confirming that kind of mythology. Sorry to disappoint.

The whole point of my advocating the nine layers thing was for each layer to be its own drastically different dimension.

Flesh is a design flaw.Then emphasize All Myths Are True, because dante's idea of hell was nine layered aswell. Ah well, I'll base myself on Dante and Judeo-Christian myths regardless. Easier to meld. This wasn't a deep discussion on the nature of hell to begin with. Since we have the fourth player, let's start this romp.

I'm sorry. I've lost interest in this game.
Flesh is a design flaw.Shame. If you ever want to come back i am sure we can arrange something.
Also don't panic, you guys are ded.
Ok. So question, our corpses still have their gear. Do our afterlife bodies still have it as well? -totally isn't going to loot my own corpse for duplicates of my equipment-
Click Click Boom BoomYou have a spectral duplicate of your gear. You can try to loot but... you will only phase through the real thing.
Samael's a jerk Don't worry, He'll probably fix that after his point is made.

Trivia: Sabaoth means "host" or "Army". I thought it'd be more fitting than Hell Police.
Hell Police sounds pretty funny though.
off the shitsTime to switch classes to Paladin, then.
On a different note, I feel like I'm playing as the main character. That's not a bad thing, though. Just wanted to say it.
“Not a promise, not an oath, or a malediction or a curse. Inevitable." - Taylor HebertYou may be the main character, but I'ma rack up the biggest demon kill count.

Okay, here's the discussion topic.
Be nice.
Or not, you're in hell already.
On another topic: Do you wish a modernized version of Dante's Inferno or something completely new in terms of hell?
