Devil possessed. Every place has their own way of saying it but it all means the same thing. To be devil possessed is to be taken over by evil when your spirit is at its weakest. With what’s happening in the world right now, it’s the best term to use for it.
No one knows when or how it started. All that is known is what it does and how it hides itself. A virus has broken out that causes grotesque effects on people. The virus is smart. It hides itself in common, weaker viruses like the common cold and the flu. Once inside the body, it looks for one of two weak spots. A compromised immune system or damaged or flawed DNA.
Once the virus is inside the body and it finds a weak point, it will start to attack and change the very structure and DNA of each cell. The symptoms start off mild in the first stage, starting with the typical symptoms of the host virus. Once the Demon Virus takes hold, the symptoms become increasingly worse. The second stage varies in severity. Increased appetite, strange behavior, loss of memory and sudden shifts in emotions are all common symptoms. As it progresses, the body begins to change into the third stage. Growths will begin to form and seem to act apart from the host and the symptoms from the second stage increase. In the final stage, the virus will infect the mind and either kill the host and keep it alive by eating certain things to keep the body from rotting or the host will simply turn braindead. In the final stage, one of two things can happen, either the virus will keep the mind alive while the body itself dies and let the person live in symbiosis with the virus or the virus will fully take over, killing both mind and body. What happens depends on how sentient the virus becomes.
An extraordinary case of the Demon Virus emerged roughly 7years ago. A man contracted the virus through damaged DNA, showed all the classic symptoms from the first and second stages and then…..nothing. He didn’t progress any further than the second stage with only a couple of symptoms. Then one day, while working in the lab, something caused him to snap. When he cooled down, all he could remember was seeing someone's fearful face just before running off. Ever since then, he has figured out what has happened then has since become a private detective, using his abilities for good.
His name is Jonah Norman. Private detective. Biologic researcher. A man with a cursed body, a will stronger than steel and a goal to help anyone he can.
[b What I’m Looking For]
- A male or female character between the age of 25 to 35. Can be older but not by much.
- I want to see a unique character. No cannon fodder or ‘oh-woe-is-me’. I’m ok with a tragic past but don’t be dramatic with it. I’m ok with the character dealing with a current problem but don’t be that character that starts loud crying two seconds in. Don’t be typical.
- Romance will eventually happen. It will be a slow build up to it. Any adult events will either be timeskipped or taken off site. I will NOT do off site writing in places such as Discord or emails. Google Drive or another roleplay site that allows adult writing are the only options.
- Mature themes will be present. Themes such as blood, death, gore, drug use, alcohol use, smoking, cursing, and other similar themes will be present at any given time during the story. If you are sensitive to such themes, this is not for you.
- I want to see a bit of everything in this. I want the light and the dark side of life in this. The ups and downs, the happy and sad, the funny and offensive, the weird and the typical and everything in between. Mix it up, shake it up, twist up the plot.
- I expect quality AND quantity. Give back what I give you and I will do the same in return. Think of it as an equivalent exchange.
- I don’t expect posts daily. Just post in as timely a manner as possible. If something comes up that prevents you from doing so, I totally understand. Life happens. Just let me know so I’m not left hanging out to dry like a pair of underwear.
- I want to talk about the story as it’s developing. Let's toss ideas around to help the story progress. I’m all for developing future scenes as well. It helps give a mini goal to get to. Communication is something I value in a writing partner.
