REPENT.

ENDLESS RIDDLES IS A MULTI-FANDOM ROLEPLAYING GROUP CENTERED AROUND THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS.

[endlessriddles]

A very important announcement under the cut.

Due to some unfortunate circumstances, Endless Riddles will be on permanent hiatus. So many issues have caused this decision, hence this post is written not to provide excuses but more so to apologize to our dear members who have made the run of this group possible. Though as to not leave a blank space, (where I could write your names, ehem) the reason behind this big decision will be fully elaborated below.

There were some concerns with moderator schedules. A couple of people in the mod team work regularly and some were busy with school stuffs. There were some conflict in schedules, a handful were unable to contribute due to the difference in time zone and difference in free time. While it could’ve been solved by minimizing responsibilities or hiring extra hands, we have also considered the season altogether, me as a head moderator more so.

Besides the aforementioned issues, offline situations were also being handled, thereby affecting my mental health. I cannot speak for the rest of the moderators other than the fact that they have given me their full support in this and have respected no matter what outcome this finality will produce. By no means are we shutting down ER for the lack of activity. In fact, the group had been more than active than I, as the founder, could have ever hoped for and for that, many thanks to have joined us while it lasted.

And with this, I’m ending this post. Again, apologies for people who are expecting more from us, from the group itself. In the same breath, thank you again for joining us and giving us a chance.

P.S : If anyone is interested in taking up Endless Riddles as I step down, you are very welcomed to contact me via Skype @ nitsunari.

“It is not ungrudgingly that I assume the mantle of leadership, but if this is what the supreme author wills, so be it.” 

Spill blood over disagreements as you will, so long as you do not expect me to preside as judge over them. This is the only injustice rightly so-called: denying a dead man his peace by bothering him about petty quarrels.

Corpses of the fallen, however decayed, are to be brought to Märchen von Friedhof for proper burial, or failing that, resurrection practice. 

Any and all dead princesses are required to receive instruction in the performing arts when-soever they wish – but receive it they must.

That’s one hell of a kink, mister.

Luxuria rules applied!

Ashen wings patterned with the images of human skulls have replaced leaves in the forests on the island of Superbia, a Swarm this large could only warn of a great disaster to come. For the Lord did not use the Swarm to warn of his plagues to come, it was the Swarm that sucked the land dry, that struck fear in the eyes of those whose sights were only set upon themselves. Attracted to the island of the Prideful by the disasters they were likely to create themselves, or perhaps drawn in by bright lights reflected by the island’s crystalline flora, it would soon be more than their wings that would block out the reflections of the prideful. The blood spilled in disasters forewarned would stain the crystals red.

CURRENT NOTES

This week's featured monster is a Mothman.

A large swarm of Mothmen has gathered on the island of Superbia, forewarning a great disaster. They made no attempt to hide themselves, resting on the branches of the island’s trees and sleeping with wings shading the mirror crystals. Eyes drawn to one’s own reflection may instead catch sight of a Mothman’s eye spots.

The assistance of Demons can be used in felling this week’s monster, however the best tactic to kill a Mothman is catching them while they are distracted. Avoid direct eye contact, and draw their attention with bright lights, spilled blood, or honey.

MOTHMAN

NAME Mothman OTHER NAMES Owlman, Black Bird of Chernobyl, Freiburg Shrieker ORIGIN North America (Virginia, most notably), Japan, Germany, Russia, South America, England BIOLOGICAL SEX Unknown ETYMOLOGY It’s a fairly recently reported cryptid, so its name is pretty self explanatory, derived from the English words ‘moth’ and ‘man,’ signifying a most basic description of its appearance, a humanoid moth.

INFO

Mothmen are omens, large, furry beings said to appear in the moments before a disaster, in the exact place it will happen. They are characterized by their humanoid size, large wings, and glowing red eyes. Though they are harbingers for negative events, they are known to strike irrational, paralyzing fear into the hearts of all who behold them.

ABILITIES

- High speed flight. - Creation of an irrational fear response. - Future sight, namely the ability to sense impending disasters. - Paralysis, for any who look into their eyes or the eye spots on their wings. - Hypnosis, for any who look into the eye spots on their wings. - Ability to implant visions of disaster. - Attacks with claws and teeth. - Keen sense for blood and the ability to find its source.

Demons, Cryptids, or Extraterrestrials, their origin in the worlds of the living was largely unknown, like their intent, the nature of their existence was shrouded in nothing more than mystery. They are eerie beings that scarcely return to the surface from the skies of ALLEGRIA, only folding their wings to roost in the places their visions mark as places where disaster will occur. It is their method of predation. Though they are known omens for impending danger, though their presence strikes nothing more than fear into the heart of man, one look into their piercing red eyes leaves one paralyzed, locked into the gruesome fate that surely awaits them in their future.

When nature has taken its course, they feed, swarming like flies, the air full of the sound of their wingbeats fluttering in time, a near deafening buzz. With the expansion of their pharynx, the Mothman sucks the life from victims of the tragedies they warn of, feeding on the innards of casualties of strife. The process of feeding creates an uncharacteristic squeaking noise, a method of evolution also used to fend off predators.

Mothmen are known for their striking red eyes and large eye spots. When captivating prey, they unfurl their wings fully, meaning to do nothing more than hypnotize and terrorize. Their large wings allow them to fly at near supersonic speeds, and their teeth and talons are sharp as any of ALLEGRIA’S beasts.

Known effective items against a Mothman are nothing more than diversions. Mothmen are drawn to bright light. They can be paralyzed by the sight of their own eyes reflected back at them. Mothmen are easily distracted by nectar or honey. They are rendered entirely immobile if their wings are removed. And, as always, as a last resort, spilled blood serves to send them into a singleminded state, and when distracted by thoughts of feeding, they can be felled.

The gluttons of Gula had their fill of the Chorus’ song till they could hear no more, till the last of their blood drained from their ears, still, nothing could satisfy the Sisters’ thirst for death.Not even the parched lands of Luxuria could truly dry their throats for long, however. In dry air, with heaving lungs, the Chorus would continue to scream their last screams, songs of warning, a siren’s sound to lure those who lusted for death to their graves. Appearing in the guise of young maidens, crying tears of grief stained red with the blood of the other islands, they would take on a facade of easy prey for those ruled by the demons of Lust, though, the only bed they will lie in is the death bed of their prey. 

CURRENT NOTES

This week's featured monster is a Banshee.

Grieving young maidens seem easy prey for the lustful, guised in black lace veils and crying tears, singing mournful songs for those brought to an early grave, but they lust for nothing but death. Beware their ploys!

Demons are not that effective against this week’s creature, but some handy dandy salt may be the trick based on a rumor or two. If not, throw someone else’s blood at ‘em! That’s always fun, right?

Some of the singing death remains trapped in Acedia's hell, but those that prevailed have come out far too strong. Their voices attained a melody befitting the audience of Gods, but there are no glorious beings to be found on the islands of sin. Gula, however, is different. Here, their songs hold no meaning. A man who eats himself to death is no more worthy than an ant trapped beneath the weight of a stone heavier than their strength allows them to carry. Though, on the island of Gluttony, their song melted into the tantalizing air of scents and molded them into something new. Nothing better, but something far more welcoming to the residents of this buffet. The music can be heard in a soft hum when the right ear catches it, but it's the smell that'll draw them in. What scent would monsters that sing of great death be perceived as? The answer is quite simple: ambrosia, the food of Gods. A trap befitting such wicked beings, but those that get too close to try and taste the Chorus' flesh will be greeted with a most wretched hello.

CURRENT NOTES

This week's featured monster is a Banshee.

Don't get too greedy! The closer you are to a banshee, the more likely it is that you'll lose your hearing from their screams before the sound pierces your organs hard enough to make them burst. It's not the prettiest death, but it'd look the tastiest!

Dropping Kaneki Ken from Tokyo Ghoul. His demon was Wrath, Satan and the island he was on was Avaritia.

Kaneki Ken has been dropped.

Gold cursed the strength of the Chorus, but one must not forget where the soul of a Banshee's voice roots from. Avaritia succeeded in lowering the morbid songstresses' numbers, but only gave better purpose for their existence on the islands of sin. Upon arriving to Acedia, the screams have dulled to mere lullabies. The softness is an attempt to better mold into the depressingly unlively place, but do not believe the songs. The closer one gets to a blissful and peaceful sleep, the closer they are to greeting Death in all its forms. The calm is deliberately deceiving, but what does laziness know of a lie? How can one careless enough to allow sleep grace them in the open know of what awaits them? So sleep. Someone may yell to not step into the light, but there is no light at the end of this tunnel. Fall hard enough and the Chorus' screams will pierce ears hard enough to make the body bleed before the soul's final moments.

CURRENT NOTES

This week's featured monster is a Banshee.

Because of Acedia's layout, some of the Chorus is scattered through its troubling terrain. Their song is weakened, but because of how slow things go along in Acedia - they've found better music in following the sounds the island seems to produce on its own... almost as if they're trying to make a mixtape of soft death together, if you will.

The violent cries from the mess that's left of Ira have died down, allowing a momentary peace to paint the island of Wrath as the Chorus carries on its show. But on the island of Greed, there is plenty more to mourn. Death screams louder than their voices do here, but do not be fooled by the silence. Golden paths have been ruined with blotches of silver among them: beautiful combs, inviting to those that know of the suffering the lustrous yellow brings to those that do so much as touch it. The pitch of the screams lowered with their arrival, but their wits are still about them. There is plenty of music to be made and found in someone willing to pick up what may lead them to their final moments... This is, after all, what they exist for. Unfortunate predictaments, and what better way to test the naivety of Avaritia's inhabitants than through their own sin? A befitting test for a soon-to-be befitting song.

CURRENT NOTES

This week's featured monster is a Banshee.

The Chorus has grown quieter, but don't be fooled by it! The closer someone gets to a comb, whether knowingly or unknowingly, the louder the screams get. Be careful not to step on one or else the thin, wretched hand of one of the songstresses' will be gripped around your throat for ruining her treasure.

The terrain of the island isn't effected by the Chorus' appearance, but the voices will echo due to some of the structures on it.
