There are myriad of reasons to call up the hosts of hell, but all of them come with a cost. Are you willing to pay their toll?
RULES ○ Comment with your character, prefs, etc. Are you an erstwhile summoner of spirits or a demon yourself? ○ Tag around. ○ Thread!
PROMPTS WHY 1. For power: Imagine what you could achieve with the forces of darkness behind you. 2. For a life: Someone you love needs more time. You're willing to give up some of your own. 3. For vengeance: While you can never strike back at those who've harmed you, you know there are beings that can settle scores. 4. For chaos: Some men just want to see the world burn. 5. For companionship: Don't judge. The world gets lonely when you need a friend...or more. 6. For sex: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 7. For no intent of your own: The accident. You knew you shouldn't have opened that book bound with human flesh. Now your weekend's ruined. 8. Wildcard
WHAT YOU'LL GIVE UP 1. Your soul: At least you'll get to keep it for ten more years or so. Besides, in this economy, it wasn't doing much anyway. 2. Your service: Demonic side gigs! 3. Your heart: You'll never love another. 4. Your body: In the gore way or the sexy way. 5. Your sanity: Do you want to end up at an insane asylum eating flies? Because this is how you end up at an insane asylum eating flies. 6. Your innocence: Interpret this as you will. Maybe murder? Maybe not? Maybe...something else! 7. Wildcard
[Quick info here. Terrible blood mage who works as a professional middleman between demons and humans (and also has contracts with/summons lesser ones in battle) so if you’re wanting to get a hold of one, he’s here to help. He’s arguably more unscrupulous than a lot of the demons he works with, though, so I’d be down for a demon AU, too.
Crosscanon, OCs, assumed CR all welcome. Come at me!]
[More likely than not an unwitting/unintentional summoner, especially likely that he was set up. OTA as a whole, but M/F if it veers towards shipping/smut.]
(( Bio- A freshly baked OC needing voicetesting. A man from a world where once a month, somewhere in the world is struck by a reality-altering event. He has recently joined the organisation that combats paranormal events and supernatural criminals. ))
Optional starter-
[ The first thing the demons see as the mystical smoke from the black candles clears is Yamada's trainers colliding with the summoner's face. His arms morph into turbines at just the right time to make his dropkick into a jet-powered missile. He surfs the summoner's head into the wall with a bang, before whipping around to the summon circle. ]
Aww beans. Too late.
[ He really didn't want to meet a demon today, but what're you gonna do, cry about it? ]
[ Yamada knows better than most that appearances can be deceiving. His miniature jet engine arms bulge, then snap in to return to fingers, so he can make a dismissive waving gesture. ]
Yeah, but you're late. Beyond fashionably late, even. You should go back home.
[ He should have paid more attention in the briefing, he thinks to himself. He should also get off of this guy's head, but he doesn't do that either. Balancing delicately on the dude's skull. ]
That's pretty bad form. [Xellos' hand moves from the back of his neck to hold a finger up and wag.] For answering the knock, I'll need a bit of repayment. Doesn't matter from who!
[he's surmised that the one who did the knocking is currently getting his brains knocked. oh well.]
[ One hand moved from the back of a neck, one hand moved to- Yamada scratches there, looking thoughtful in a bored sort of way. It's forced to to make him look relaxed, but he's good at that game. ]
Ah? Sorry, I don't carry change. I'll get you next time.
[ Whatever a demon wants, it can't be good if they get it. That's basic stuff, right? ]
Nah, nah, that won't work. See, then it would be the same time. So to get to the next time… you gotta go.
[ He really wishes he remembered if he has to break the circle or not break the circle under any circumstances. Yamada doesn't take his eyes off Smiley McDevil Pants as he finally steps off the summoner’s head, picking the dude up to pat him down. ]
C’mon, don't tell me you tossed the instruction manual…
[that gets a little laugh out of Xellos, who bends down into a crouch to take a look at the circle he's standing in.] I guess I truly can't pass as an evil demon! I wonder what sort was supposed to show up, rather than a humble priest of no renown... [he traces a couple of the markings.] Blood bengeance? That must be a spelling error.
[ he kind of already did this and pissed the demon off but he doesn't make good choices so he'd help with it again.
alternatively he can be the demon if your character has a computer nearby (he's going to suck at actually granting anything of value and might just delete the door by mistake or something though).
[ She is not trying to summon anything in particular. She was curious about some (likely fictional) spells in her mother's library and decided to try if they work! Aesc is still self-teaching herself magecraft. ]

[Xellos can't remember the last time anyone mortal had been powerful enough to summon him! he's mildly impressed!
he gets a free show with it, too! wow! free violence! did he win a sweepstakes or something? did a lower-level demon put him on the speed-dial? hmm...
either way, the delectable aroma of pain and anguish hits his nostrils and brings a bright smile to the demon's face.
he does, in fact, just look like a smiley dude with a page cut and not a demon, but hey.
while rubbing the back of his head:] My, my! Is there a celebration going on here?
