The time has come, at last. One man, long awaited, has finally had the audacity, the daring, the sheer genius needed to begin a task possibly greater than any other in the whole of history: Revolution
Lord Shannow, famous for finding the way to split the walls of reality and journey between the worlds, has attracted a great deal of attention, but not all of it approving, and not all of it impressed. The Authority Himself decided that Shannow could no longer be allowed to flout His Laws, ans sent a force of angles to persuade Shannow of the wisdom of His decree, by force, if necessary.
What happened next secured Shannow's place in history forever. The angles never returned,and furthermore, Shannow was not cowed into surrender or hiding. Instead, he did the exact opposite, and declared war on the Authority.
Even now, Lord Shannow has gone to a bleak, empty world, and there is gathering his forces for the greatest war of all time. His mission, he claims, is nothing more than to overthrow the Authority, and to turn the kingdom of heaven into the truly free Republic of Heaven. Both sides draw support from countless worlds, and the multiverse looks on with bated breath
Players will make up their own culture or own race, and are allowed to, even expected to, be as creative as possible with all details. (Note: angels are allowed on both sides, as a force of angles, defeated in a previous rebellion, have joined Shannow's cause)

Name: Talonisk
Physical Description: Large, muscled and reptilian the Talonisk are not one to be crossed. They stand at about 7'3 and weigh 240 pounds of scaled flesh. Their scales are very durable and appear to be resistant to most forms of weaponry and they can change color whenever needed. Their mouths are home to rows of razor sharp teeth which are made of the same material as the scales, which means they can basically rip apart metal with their fangs. Their eyes are inverted and vary in color depending on their mood, often meaning that they will be red the majority of the time due to their ferocious personalities.
Style of Technology: Their technology is surprisingly advanced, it is similar to that of steampunk. They use large bulky weaponry powered by pistons and clockwork mechanisms. They in fact will still use melee weapons more frequently, however their large power rifles are still the most popular. Their cities are small and often underground, the generated smoke from their factories has to affects on those inside, either death or enhancement. The most common effect being death.
Attributes/Notable qualities: Their strenght comes at a price, the majority of their species is often killed by the smog in the caves. Those who survive gain unimaginable strength and agility, some can release the smoke from their bodies in either the smoke or a highly acidic liquid which they will vomit onto an opponent that can burn the flesh from bone.
Fighting style: They despise magic in every sense of the term, they refuse to touch magical weaponry or use the arcane arts in combat. The common Talonisk berserk will utilize their strenght and durability to charge onto the battlefield, soak up the damage and rip the opponent limb from limb. Needless to say they are better at berserking then planning out their attacks, which doesn't really matter seeing as they can withstand .50 cal rounds to the face without flinching.

Name: Grexec Wrawl
Age: 55, a quarter of the Talonisk life span.
Rank/Title/Occupation: Hunter - The highest rank available to a Talonisk warrior, always sent on solo operations.
Appearance: Grexec is the normal height for a Talnoisk, all though he is slightly more muscular. His scales change color at will, just like all other Talonisks. However he has a birth defect which causes his eyes always to be blue, allowing him to appear to be calm when in fact he could be trying to restrain himself from biting someones head off. Like other Talonisks he wears only a tunic, seeing that his scales protect more then any armor ever could.
Weapons: Two bulky revolving pistols [http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs48/f/2009/204/4/1/Steampunk_Revolver_by_Airesyll.jpg] that chamber 15mm rounds, the rounds are explosive and filled with a volatile acid found in the stomach of a Talonisk. He also owns two poorly constructed battle axes [http://media.moddb.com/images/mods/1/6/5152/28550.jpg] made of a blast forged steel capable of chopping a tank in half.
Fighting Style: The typical method of charging in and murdering the opponent as brutally as possible.
Alignment: Lord Shannow
Other Allegiances: The Talonisk Undermines

Name: Grell
Physical Description: The Grell are a humanoid species of average size, usually about 5'-6' in height. They have slender bodies, with long arms and legs compared to their torsos. Their skin color varies from a light green to a dark blue. Their faces are very basic, with nasal slits as opposed to noses. Their mouths house a single row of varied teeth, due to their omnivorous nature. They have no hair, but instead have rows of nerves that run from the forehead to the base of the spine. Their bodies are not suited for tasks that require much physical strength.
Style of Technology: They are very advanced technologically, with more of a cyberpunk bent than that of their rival Talonisk. Cybernetic enhancements are very common among the Grell, usually in the form of microchips used for tracking, or muscular enhancements to improve strength or dexterity. Their weaponry is comparable to those used by human in the present. Their cities are large metropolises, towering into the sky with skyscrapers usually nowhere below the 10 story range. Due to their aforementioned lack of physical strength, the Grell utilize a fully robotic workforce. Somehow, they have not run into any robot revolts, although anything is possible.
Attributes/Notable qualities: The Grell typically favor diplomacy and negotiation over warfare, and free-thinking and open-mindedness is generally smiled upon in theory. However, in practice they can fall into cycles of seemingly endless debate and bickering due to many contrasting ideas.
Fighting style: Due to their lack of physical strength, the Grell favor ranged combat. However, many Grell carry ceremonial daggers with them. Magic is generally frowned upon, with many of the Grell seeing it as useless in such a technologically advanced society. Grell warfare techniques utilize guerrilla warfare tactics with hit-and-run raids a very common strategy.

Name: Toulu Massa
Age: 80 (about middle aged for the Grell)
Rank/Title/Occupation: Operative (spec ops., works in pairs[small]foreshadowing![/small].)
Appearance: On the tall side for a Grell, about 6' 2". He is just as skinny as most of them, at about 127 lbs. His skin is dark green, with areas of lighter green around his face and hands. He wears advanced body armor, which has basic cloaking abilities and good protection.
Weapons: Toulu uses a silenced combat shotgun that fires acidic rounds, along with a silenced pistol that can fire rounds laced with radiation. He also carries a ceremonial dagger for melee purposes.
Fighting Style: Toulu mainly uses his ranged weaponry, and only uses his dagger or hand-to-hand in case of emergency. His melee combat relies more on agility and dexterity in order to evade enemy attacks and counter them, as apposed to brute force.
Alignment: Lord Shannow
Other Allegiances: None (Severed all allegiances when he joined Shannow's rebellion)
Bio: Toulu was born into the Massa family, one of the most powerful and influential families in the Grell society. In his lineage was kings, queens, rulers, prime ministers, and other assorted politicians. He decided to forgo any kind of political career in favor of a military one. He joined the Military out of school, and rose quickly through the ranks, although he expects this to be more a part of his families influence more than anything. He became an Operative, a shadow agent who worked behind the scenes in order to keep peace. When Shannow's rebellion was instigated, the Grells sided with the Authority, who Toulu was sick of. Toulu responded by going AWOL, and joined the rebellion.
