As long as humans have existed so too have the Downworlders. At first there was war but now there is peace. Or at least, some semblance of it. But with Valentine on the rise everything they have worked so hard to create may come tumbling down around them. Will you join the fight or watch it all come crumbling down?
We just wanted to make a small announcement to say that sadly this roleplay is now closed. Unfortunately us admins no longer have the time to run this roleplay anymore and we don’t think it’s fair to keep it open when we ourselves can’t be on. We want to thank you all for being incredible players and showing us characters we’ve loved so much. We hope to open this again in the future when we have more time.
You are all welcome to continue playing your characters in this space which we’ve created and once again, we just want to thank you for a great year of roleplaying.

✗  Diana is the daughter of a greater demon and a mundane. She knows the identity of her mundane mother but has always wondered who her father was. After doing extensive research over the centuries she is still no closer to finding out the identity of her father.
✗ Her warlock mark is her most treasured secret and only her closest friends have truly seen it.
✗  Diana has taken a few Downworlders under her wing over the centuries. She has tutored warlocks and found company among vampires, werewolves and the Fair Folk.
✗ Diana has had many great lovers, both male and female, over the centuries but never has she found one she truly loved.
✗ Diana has found it rather helpful to stay off of the Shadowhunter radar, keeping a rather low profile throughout the centuries, but with Valentine back on the scene she knows that is not an option.Â
By the angel, is that [Danielle Campbell]? Oh wait, it’s actually just [Diana Craven]. [She's] an [350] year old [Warlock] and is [Charismatic] and [Fiercely Independent] as well as [Stubborn] and a [Hopeless Romantic]. They have a [Neutral] relationship with Shadowhunters and are a [Loner].

Inquisitor Herondale arrives and wastes no time wresting control of the Institute. She’s been called in to interrogate Valentine. They have little to no luck. In a last ditch attempt to learn even a little bit of what he knows the Clave allows Jace and Clary to enter his cell and interrogate him. During this interrogation Valentine forces Jace to reveal that he and Clary are not, in fact related. They learn nothing from him however.
Isabelle is deep in the depths of her Yin Fen addiction. Desperate for her next fix she reached out to Raphael, whom rejects her. She turns to the streets asking, begging, for a vampire to bite her. She runs into less than reputable vampires and is nearly killed. She is saved by an unknown shadowhunter, Sebastian Verlac. He takes her back to his place where she falls off the face of the world and begins to recover.
In a bizarre turn of events the greater demon Azazel arrives in New York and decides to have a little bit of fun. Using his magic he forces Valentine and Magnus Bane to switch bodies. No matter how hard Magnus tries to convince his friends no one believes him. It isn’t until Valentine projects himself to Imogen revealing that everything Magnus has said is true. He reveals Jace is the lost Herondale heir and threatens to kill him if she doesn’t return Valentine to his body. She releases Magnus and he goes to his apartment where they conduct a spell to switch back. Desperate not to lose him again Clary tackles Valentine into a portal that takes him back to the Institute.
In the days after Valentine and Magnus’s body swap dead shadowhunters start popping up. Not only are they dead but their runes have been sliced from their bodies. Imogen demands all Downworlders be injected with tracking devices and DNA tested so the Clave can keep an eye on their whereabouts and solve the shadowhunter murders. The Downworlders react negatively and Jace only manages to tag one downworlder, Maia. Desperate to fix the rapidly deteriorating relations with the local Downworlders Alec wrests control of his Institute back from Imogen and immediately puts a stop to her plans. It is revealed the murder is a Seelie Knight hell bent on revenge for the death of her lover. She is captured and taken to the Seelie Court alive.
Alec’s plan to smooth over the last few days involved creating a council of Downoworlders where the leaders of each faction can come together and discuss major events. He hopes that it means the trust that was lost or damaged over the years can be healed over and they can start anew. Luke wants to kill Valentine himself and requests from the Clave that he get to do so. They deny him. Out of anger he attacks him anyways. Alec manages to stop them both and lets Luke off with a warning.
The Clave decides Valentine would be safer in Alicante and begin to make plans to move him there. Using his Circle connections Sebastian adjusts the destination of the portal and portals Valentine to an unknown location. The Clave has lost Valentine. Again. And there will be no keeping it under wraps this time. Unwilling to let him get away Jace and Clary go to retrieve him. They fail to find him and Clary is only just saved from hurting herself an Jace as a side effect from wallowing water from Lake Lyn. She has learned however that her original brother isn’t dead and immediately starts suspecting that he’s behind all of this. Back at the Institute Robert Lightwood reveals to his son that the Clave lost the soul sword in the battle for the Institute and have been lying to the Downworld about still having possession of it.
And here is our next plot drop! As always please try to stay as true to your characters as you can in these events. A lot has just happened! The plot drop is based on episodes 11 to 16 of season 2 of Shadowhunters. Players are welcome to post threads relating to any of these plot points. Just specify where in the timeline it takes place so no one gets confused! We’ve also accumulated some of the smaller plot developments below the cut so that everyone can be aware of everything that just happened. We know a lot just happened and if anyone has questions about where we are or what is happening don’t be afraid to ask us!
Sebastian reveals to Isabelle that he too was a Yin Fen addict once as she recovers. She’s the one who ‘convinces’ him it’s time he rejoins the shadowhunters at the Institute.
During his time in Valentine’s body Magnus was tortured by the agony rune. While he made it out in one piece it’s clear the event has left him deeply troubled.
The Seelie that was murdering Downworlders has been dealt with by the Queen. No one outside of her people know the details but many assume she was killed for her crimes.
It is revealed that Sebastian is not, in fact, Sebastian but no one outside of Jonathan knows this fact. Jonathon kills the original Sebastian after he manages to escape. No one outside of Sebastian knows this.
Sebastian has stolen Valentine away to a secluded cottage somewhere in Alicante. Where it is revealed his father tortured him and banished him to Edom when he wouldn’t do what Valentine needed him to do. It is out of a deep sense of hurt that Sebastian has decided he will banish both Valentine and the Soul Sword to Edom. Surprisingly Valentine charms Sebastian out of this plan and Sebastian opts to keep him around instead. No one outside of Sebastian and Valentine knows this.
Sebastian returns to the Institute and acts as if he is equally as revolted that the Clave managed to lose Valentine again. No one is suspicious of him.
✗  Once you’ve lived as long as she has, you have a tendency to rotate around names. Whether it be the first or the last - something changes. But Persephone has been her signature for a while. It was one she acquired years ago when a group of young people mistook her for the Goddess of Spring & Queen of the Underworld. Finding the name fitting and utterly flattered by the mundanes, she took on the name.
✗  Some believe she has a rather prickly personality due to the way she weaves half truths. It’s a talent she’s acquired over the years - one she takes great pleasure in - but Persephone is blunt with people that have earned her trust and friendship.Â
✗  Like most fae, Persephone has markings on the side of her face that resemble branches and leaves. Hers change on occasion, though the differences are quite difficult to spot unless you know to look. Even then, it’s hard to distinguish the meaning because the changes are so minute. Typically, it’s over extreme emotion.
✗ Despite having multiple lovers and flings throughout her lengthy life, the Seelie Queen has a strong desire for a love to call hers. Though it may not be a realistic feat, the woman idealizes the idea.Â
By the angel, is that [NINA DOBREV]? Oh wait, it’s actually just [PERSEPHONE]. [SHE’S] a [UNKNOWN] year old [SEELIE QUEEN] and is [ELEGANT] and [PLAYFUL] as well as [MANIPULATIVE] and [CURIOUS]. They have a [NEUTRAL] relationship with Shadowhunters and are a [LEADER].
