The endless war between good and evil has been fought many times, in many different places and in many different ways. In this particular world, the fate of the world is decided upon the outcome of the war of one particular city...that is, the city of Despair
In this city, Angels, Demons, Necromancers, and Creatures of the like you've never even dreamed of roam freely. Humans call it the city of hell, and few go through it, and very little leave it. It is a dark and foreboding metropolis rife with crime, grime, corruption, and a deep-seated sense of urban decay.
Demons take siege to rule the city, their forces consist of demons of every sort dread lords, incubus, succubi, and much more. They live off of the evil and despair of humanity. Their leader, Satan: Lucifer whichever you would wish to call him, lives hidden asleep.
In an effort to save the city, Heaven has sent it's own guard. The Thrones -or highest orders of angels- are given human form yet retain their divine powers to combat against the forces of evil. But in a world where all seems depraved and lost, the final glimmers of hope steadily fade away and even some of the angels have fallen from Grace.
Necromancers, simply humans who are gifted with magic, are trying their best to either stop the evil, or become it. The only way you can be a necromancer is if your born into it, because the magic you learn of can only be carved into your DNA. Necromancers are born when an angel and a demon are spouses, and they have many children. The strand of DNA skips every two generations, making them extremely scarce.
The creatures are something akin to shapeshifters. They are able to change into a monstrous form of an animal at any time of a day. Their origins lie deep-rooted in mysteries that surpass time. but they exist and as a force that wish no allegiance from either Angel or Demon, only themselves.
Humanity is on the line, will you treat them as cattle and kill them, or be the ones who defend them. You decide, in the city of Despair.
