Story

Most humans live every day of their mundane lives existing only in the material world, and as their eyes are fixed only on the physical things of life, they are completely unaware of a deeper, spiritual war, in which their souls are swept up in. A few, a small few, however, enlist as soldiers, for both sides, and fight in the highest peaks and the darkest places, over the souls of man, and more.

Settings

Preflood

Set in the time of myth and legend.

(second game?)

Playable Characters

All 3 might be open, possibly only the Repentant and Blessed, and possibly only the Blessed might be playable.

Angel

An angel sent down by God to do battle with the evil.

The Repentant

These angels have fallen from grace. Some have rebelled before, and others have taken to them human women. Shamed by their sin, they long for forgiveness and to included back into the Ranks of Heaven. In grace, God has placed them into human bodies, living in immortality, waiting till the end of the earth where they can be counted among the humans for forgiveness at the final judgment. Until then, they wield angelic powers, fighting the darkness.

The Blessed

These men have committed themselves to the war to fight alongside the Light. Their bodies are marked with angelic forms, blessing them with powers before only given to the Angels. Their fierceness has lent an invaluable service in the war.

Example Enemies

The Fallen

Once mighty angels, they became seduced with promises of power and graduer, they followed Satan and rebelled against Heaven and against God. They were cast out, now cursed with perverted and twisted form that only fuel their hatred. They vow revenge on He who cast them out, and on anyone He loves.

Nephilim

These giants among men were the result of the unholy union of the daughters of Man and the Sons of God, Angels, or those who once were. They lay sleeping for thousands of years only to awake.

Acolytes

Men who have pledged themselves in service of the Evil. They exist from the slummiest streets to the highest penthouses, and can extort tremendous power, at the price of their soul. Some can be freed if the demonic grip on their spirit is broken. Some refuse to be.

The Cursed

Acolytes that have gone too far in the dark arts have lost their soul and their forms are now merely puppets to those of a darker power. The power channeled through the souls of the Cursed can be mighty indeed.

Spawnlings

Shams of beings, these semi-conscious beings are constructions by the Fallen used to fill the ranks in their armies. They sow doubt, despair, hatred and perversion in the hearts of man, but are no match for the warrior of Light.

Gameplay

Most likely a 2d platformer with some RPG elements. A heavy reliance on special combos and spells.
