This thread is just to see who, if anyone, would be interested in this. I'm going to give some background info on the game world and what general course the story would take. If people like it, I'll make this into an RPG.

*************************************************

There are only two constants in the universe. All things are created. All things shall be destroyed. Even time and space are subject to this law. With every second that ticks by, we come closer to the end of the world.
The demons have always tried to hasten the arrival of the end. They have slaughtered their way through thousands of worlds, leaving none alive who would oppose them. Of all demons, there is one who is unstoppable, one who saw the beginning of time and who wishes to see its end. Cife.
But the innocent peoples of the universe are not alone in their struggle against the demons. Cife's own brother, the angel Gabriel, leads the armies of the heavens against the vast demon horde.
The war has lasted for years untold, a secret know only to the two brothers. Every new planet that is discovered becomes a battleground as both sides seek to establish it as a base. On inhabited worlds, the battle is over which side gains the newly discovered species.
The latest batleground is the world of Atlas. The latest prize are the humans. It was only from this planet that Cife ever fled in fear. One human was able to best him, the first king of men. But mankind is not ageless as the demons are. Now Cife has once again begun to try to conquer Atlas.
His lieutenants, the Sins, are warring with the angels and their allies on the nearby planet of Chronos. If mankind wishes to escape destruction, they will have to choose a side and end the war before it reaches them. But who would travel across the stars to do battle with a nearly unstoppable foe?

************************************************

That's the basic premise. Demons are trying to set up a 'jump point' on another planet to make it easier to conquer the humans'. I don't have to say that this is a fictional universe do I?
In order to make sure it goes smoothly, this would probably use the chapter system. Part 1 would center on the humans (players) searching for a way to travel to Chronos and growing stronger. Part 2 would take place on Chronos and would culminate in a battle with, well let's just say it'd be a really powerful demon. Not Cife though.
The players would be playing humans (maybe certain demons/angels) and would choose the basic fare: weapons, magic, fighting style, motivation, and so on.
Did I mention souls? That's how the characters would get stronger. Every time you kill another living being, you have the chance to add their soul to yours. The more souls you have, the more powerful your magic becomes. Even if it is controversial.

So, there's the gist of it (jist?). Any ideas for improvement?
