Ok. I've been racking my head on what persona Dante should take. I guess something like the sun god or something. >_>
Sol Angel, I dont care one way or other if we have personas or not.
Devil's Tears, thanks for clearing that up for me. Ok, DMC3 did not happen.
Should we just take it from the manga then? Because Chaoticchicken will play Lady? And maybe there is an Arkham there too? Or no?

Take what from the manga...? Oh, no. Their history would have to be different even from that because they were on opposite sides then too. Whether or not Lady knows the twins is up to you three, but quite frankly it might just be easier, and make better sense, to have Lady coming to Japan to solve the mystery of the demon surge and meet the twins along the way since they're doing the same thing. And as I said, their past doesn't really matter. There will be enough story and plot in this rpg to make up for the lack of history. But as we go along, we might think of something anyhow if we (ya'll) feel like it. And, no, Arkham will not be there. Perhaps Lady already got her revenge...? Or any number of other things, from the twins working together to stop him in a like DMC3 mission, to him not even ever existing in the same sense as he was in the game. I don't really care. It doesn't really matter that much. After all, don't you think this rpg is complicated enough as is...? XD lol. As for the Persona, WHICH sun god? XD Helios is the Greek sun god, so he can't be that one. Can't be Apollo either (pity, he suddenly sounds fitting) because that is Katsuya's brother's and he might show up once or twice. (Although, I don't think Apollo was actually a sun god, the game says he is... and my mind thinks of the sun when I think of him. But when I looked him up, it never said anything about being even related to the sun. *Shrugs*) Here, I went and looked up some gods. My suggestions would be: Surya, sun god from Hindu mythology. Kinich Ahau/Kinich Kakmo, sun deity from Mayan mythology with alternate form of a bird. Huracan, Mayan deity of wind, storm, and fire. Or, this is fun, Alastor... ^_^ www.absoluteastronomy.com/encyclopedia/a/al/alastor.htmThe first part, the Greek mythology part, sounds slightly fitting. Plus... I just had to share. XD OR... another one I found particularily interesting was a set of Mayan Twin Deities. Ixbalanque was the younger one and Hunahpu was the older. The two were tricksters who used their smarts to get out of trouble. The only problem would be that their personalities are backwards from our twins...! The younger is less talkative and is associated with the moon (which would ideally make him a Moon Arcana Persona, but that means his personality should be typically gloomy) while the older brother is more dominant (talkative) and is associated with the morning star (which ideally makes him a Star Arcana, meaning his personality should be cheerful). XD Funny, ne? Even better would to be to actually use the two... and let them have the one in order of same age. Talk about your alternate personalities... It would be funny... at least in my opinion. On the other hand, we could just forget the older/younger bit and place them on the opposites and say it our way. Yet on the other hand (yes, apparently we have three hands... o.O') you could just ignore me and choose whatever you want... as long as it fits. But on the idea of the twin deities, both Sol and Devil would have to agree. Right... I'm done.

Oh, so Arkham doesn't exist...? This'll be interesting for me... I don't think Apollo was a sun god entirely. Have you heard of Apollo's chariot? He had a chariot led by horses of flame. It is said the sun was tied behind his chariot and he is the one who made the sun rise and set. Anyways, for Lady... I think a kitsune would be a perfect Persona for her. A kitsune is a Japanese (or Chinese, forgot which. >_>) fox demon with 9 or more tails (more as they get older) that is known for being particularly mischievious. I think that would be fitting. Is that okay?

Yea... well, technically he has to exist of course... XD Father... but yes, he really doesn't in this rpg's timeline. Have fun...!
That description of Apollo sounds like Helios actually... It's strange. I wonder if Apollo is mistaken for Helios in some books or whatnot. I thought that was him too... but it's Helios. Maybe the Romans mixed them up when they stole the Greek gods...? *Shrugs*
It's Japanese... although the Chinese have an equivilent of course. Yes, it sounds fine. And... I love kitsune... ^_^ Kurama... purrrr...

Here is what I think it should be Devil Sunday
No persona's:
Name: Vergil
Age: 24
Height: 6"4 (identical twins are a few inches apart in hieght normally so make dante 1-3 inches shorter.)
Weight: 210 (make them lighter and same goes for weight as height)
Hair Color: Silver
Eye Color: Light Blue
Weapon: Yamato
Description: (use my description as a rewrite for yours Devil Sunday.) Vergil is the oldest twin and the smartest. Since his fathers death he has taken the role as "man of the house" in the Sparda home, protecting his mother Eva and younger twin Dante. The twins knew what they were from an early age, before their father died when they were 6 years old. After he died, two of his swords, Yamato and Rebellion were left for his sons. Yamato for his eldest and Rebellion for his youngest. When the twins were 17 their mother, Eva was killed in a demon attack in front of Vergil. This drove the elder twin to discover his the devil within him and protect his brother even more. He promised himself he wouldnt let the last member of his family die. Though he would never admit this aloud. His cold demenor hides his true feelings and devotion to his "little brother". He would never admit it, but he cares for him and would never let dante get hurt.
Currently the twins run a Demon hunting business together called Devil May Cry, in hopes to one day find their mothers killer and kill him.
((little A/U ish but i wanted the twins to be older and work together. also no offense devil sunday but you got the info on the twins wrong. i fixed it. just edit accourding to what i have here))

Which info did I get wrong? Their heights and weights? Or when their parents died? >_> This is an AU RP right? So this is all pretend that Eva died much later, which she didnt, and she actually died around the time they were 8 years old. Because the Eva died when they were late teens rumour was just a rumour that spread at the IGN boards and the yaoi community. (so that dante and verge could have some you know time >_> ) but there was no evidence of that..that was just fantasy talk. Eva actually died when they were about 8. But since this is AU, we can make it like this

Yes, AU. And since you two are playing the twins, I'm letting you two decide on their info like that. Sol's stuff sounds good to me so... *Shrugs* Let her answer questions more than me on that particular topic.

That's fine if you like it But you do know that it is not true in the DMC series, right? The true story of DMC is that Eva died when they were young. So, we'll still keep it this way since the AU story will work out fine with them working together. Will this be a yaoi story?

Yes, Devil... we're not blind. Everyone knows the true history of the twins, so don't worry about it. Quite frankly, I find it insulting to Sol and even everyone else... No. How am I gonna flirt with a incestial Dante and Vergil? XD lol. But, no... no yaoi. That shouldn't have even been MENTIONED.

Celena, I was not insulting anyone. From my end, I sure as heck wasn't. Sol said I got it wrong, so I was helping her out to say that the true history is that Eva died when they were young. Actually there are a lot of hard core gamers that didnt know this. It's not insulting to help them out if they are wrong. I would like it if someone told me the truth about the series. Oh. Really? I know you! EDIT: I forgot to add, ok, so whenever anyone is ready. I'll just let you start, Sol or anyone else, because I"m the newbie here. I'm not good at personas and stuff so I'll just go with Osiris then. I know he's not a sun god. I know he's a ruler of the underworld, but Dante is half devil, so why not.

I understand...
She didn't mean you got it wrong, but rather that the info wasn't good for the rpg is what I think.
Yes, I would too... it's just... oh, nevermind. >.<
Yea, I'm the one gonna start it, no worries. I just have been busy. Sometime... oh, and it won't be in this thread, but a new one with the 'discussion' cut out of the name. Heh.
Also, Sol seems to have agreed with the no Personae for the twins if you'd pay attention, so don't worry about having one. Or... to have Ryume and Osiris or not? That is the question...

yeah I saw that she didnt put down persona. Just trying to make everyone happy if ya'll want one. hehehe, it'll be easier for me if there weren't. Thanks, Sol, for the help. (the rewrite, which is the same as Sol's) Name: Dante Age: 24 Height: 6"2 (I made Dante shorter) Weight: 190 (make them lighter and same goes for weight as height)<---gotcha! I brought Dante's weight lower since he's a bit shorter. Hair Color: Silver Eye Color: Light Blue Weapon: Rebellion & Ebony and Ivory Description: Dante is the yougest twin and the cockier one, though smart, he is a bit more clueless than his brother. Since their fathers death he has been given the Rebellion and is the baby in Eva's eyes. The twins knew what they were from an early age, before their father died when they were 6 years old. When the twins were 17 their mother, Eva was killed in a demon attack in front of Vergil. Dante was the apathetic one out of the two, deeply hurt from the loss of his mother, figuring life had no meaning. The only thing he clings onto is the strong bond between him and his brother and to pursue their mother's killer. Dante grew up to be mouthy and show offy. He likes to party and taunt his enemies. Currently the twins run a Demon hunting business together called Devil May Cry, in hopes to one day find their mothers killer and kill him.
