Question

8 Years Ago


So, I had a thought. Why are people getting there angelic/demonic traits?

Re: Question

8 Years Ago


My initial thought is that *something* changed in the world (Heaven and Hell woke up, The End Days have come and possibly gone, or something on a similar scale), and people who do good actions (we can define this however we want, but I'm in favor of good being like in Star Wars where they seek balance with evil, not necessarily to destroy it - this creates the tension between the Hero and her angelic love) gradually start to receive "blessings" in the form of angelic traits, which give them heavenly powers. And likewise, people who do a lot of bad actions (killers, rapists, corrupt government officials) start to receive "curses" in the form of demonic traits which give them hellish powers. What these powers are could be as varied as we can imagine. I also tend to think these angelic/demonic traits should occur somewhat rarely. That is, not everyone is an angelic or demonic, but those instead (say top 5%) who are truly good or truly evil. Any thoughts on this?

Since this question relates heavily to another question (Why are they traits suddenly happening in this world?), I think some of the world builders will want to weight in here.

Yes very well said. I have had an idea that I've been wanting to share. I was thinking that at one time the protagonist becomes so evil that she gets lost in her demonic ways being forced to become a shadow, to be able to control her. But of course it is meant for her to disappear, yet since the angel loves her, he volunteers to serve as her host to survive. The angel must do evil deeds for her survival until he can revert his lover or change her, causing his wings to get clipped. If he fails, not only will the demon disappear but the angel will die as well. This will then create the first angle-demon hybrid having their traits mixed in one body. Good or trash?
