SHOCK of NIGHT
It's a normal day for you as you play in the neighborhood. You're just a dog, whether you're a stray or not. But on this day, you have a faithful meeting with destiny.
As you run around nonchalantly, you look at the world around you. The sun is shining brightly, and the flowers are blooming brilliantly, and the tree's leaves are recovering from the cold winter. As you look around, movement catches your eye. You smile, realizing that the small, brown figure is merely a squirrel. Your tongue flops out of the side of your mouth as you happily chase the small rodent. He leads you through the community; past familiar houses and beautiful gardens; past the local restaurants that smell like Heaven; and through all of this glory, you don't even recognize that you've been lead into a thick bunch of trees.
It isn't until you can hardly see through the darkness that you realize you've wandered into the Forbidden Wood. Bad things are said to happen here; or that's what everyone says, at least. Your heart skips a few beats as you worry a bit, but you try to shrug it off and just turn to leave. But after about five minutes of wandering though the forest, you realize that there seems to be infinite amount of trees around you. In all directions, it's equally dark, and you can't see very far. There is no sunlight shining through, and you're now very frightened. You turn to a full sprint, seeking the exit to no avail; and eventually you stop, your chest heaving.
"What's going on?" you choke out through breaths. And at that moment, you hear a crunch of dead leaves behind you, followed by something sniffing. You freeze, and your eyes widen; and for a moment you realize this could be your last moment alive. There is another crunch followed by some shuffling from bushes. You slowly turn you head when you hear the soft breaths right next to you. But as you do so, there is barely three inches between you and a milky-blue circle. You jump back quickly, but then realize that it's an eye; and that eye lies on another dog. The dog is black and very fluffy; it has a curly tail; one eye is milky blue and the other is brown.
"You too?" it whispers with a frown on its face. You see behind this dog that there are more dogs as well.
"What's going on here?" you say quietly. If only you knew.
Welcome to the Shadow Realm.
You and a few other dogs have all wandered into the Forbidden Wood. Little did you know that this was a portal between Earth and Hell. Demons roam in this dimension, and are bloodthirsty. They are all out to get you, and will do anything to do so. Your goal: survive, and maybe find away out of this living nightmare. Band together or go at it alone; only the beasts of the shadows decide your fate.

RULES
- No Godmodding, Powerplaying, Gary-Sues or Mary-Sues
- Please, no major romance here. There's demons trying to eat you for Pete's sake.
- No chatspeak! This is a semi-literate+ roleplay, which calls for at least 4 sentences per post with correct spelling, punctuation, grammar, etc. Please don't use writer's block as an excuse too much; I understand it every once in a while, but not every other post. ;3
- 3 characters maximum per person. And if you have more than one character, be sure to not leave one hanging! Make sure they're /usually/ active, please. It's ok to only post about one of them every few posts, but don't make one of your characters non-existent.
- Normal dogs must have normal coloring.
- Write Balrog in red to show you've read the rules.
- This is not a "clan" and therefore there are no ranks. You can try to act like the leader but there's no guarantee others will play along.
- Rather than romance, let's make it conflict, shall we? :D Whether it's with other dogs or demons; verbal or not. Conflict = fun :D
-- There ARE some guidelines for demons. Here they are:
- >Must have unusual eye color for breed.
>No eyes are optional.
>If demonic animal, has to be fur less or patches of fur around the body.
>Acid, fire, or oil is optional for breath weapon.
>Body can be mended with weapons, including daggers, and even shovels.
>Demons CANNOT communicate with living creatures, other than a series of grunts and screams.
>Glowing eyes are badass. It is highly recommended, but not needed.
>NO emo hair, or anything SCENE or GOTH.
>No giant demons!
- More rules will be added if deemed necessary.
