...in The Beginning, The Heavens and The Earth sprang forth from The Presence.
...and The Earth was without form, and void, and The Spirit of The Presence dwelled over the waters.
But what happened in between?
Surely, most assuredly, The Presence did not create a formless mass when It could have crafted, in a heartbeat, fully realised, a living thriving cosmos. So when The Heavens and The Earth sprang forth from The Presence... was it a trial run? A prototype which, somehow, failed terribly?
Perhaps it was that failure that destroyed it, that rendered it formless and void all over again, these Proto-Heavens, this Proto-Earth. Or perhaps it failed so terribly that at Its Word, The Presence's Proto-Cosmos was commanded to be nullified, that It might start afresh.
But. What happened in between?
What was this world like, this world that was not meant to be, this world that died aborning?
What brilliant creatures roamed its surface, and what formidable civilisations rose in its light?
This is the story of that world between the worlds.
This is a story of angels and demons and mortals, though perhaps not like our world would conceive of them. This is the story of a struggle for global identity, searching for their place and their role in a brand-new Universe with rules not yet defined.
This is a story of love and of lust and friendship and enmity and rivalry.
But most of all, this is a story of sexuality and spirituality.
This is a story of Faith and a story of Carnality.
...because here, in this world, where only the rules are without form and void, do demons not act always demonically, do angels not always act angelically.
The absolutes are not yet set in stone. And the temptation to use this time, this time of ambiguity to be naughty... this temptation is very strong indeed.
Demons are not imprisoned in Hell, nor do Angels require permission to depart from Heaven.
They dwell upon The Proto-Earth in an awkward kind of harmony. There's a bipartisanship, a definite divide between the sides, but neither do they fight with tooth and nail and claw and sword. Sometimes there is love between angel and demon, and frequently there is lust.
On this world also, this Proto-Earth, dwell mortals, though these mortals are often infused with an energy one might call "magic," and the vast and storied species that crisscross the world are far more diverse than the world we know.
Animals can resemble humans and walk on two legs and speak the tongues of man. Beasts we would call "myth" are prevalent, even thriving, basilisks and hippogriffs and unicorns and such.
There are humans. There is an Atlantis, still proud and tall above the waves. There is a Babylon, and its grandeur far surpasses the later civilisation to take its name.
There is technology and there is mysticism and there is romance and there is intrigue.
God is still playing dice with The Universe. And The Devil is enjoying the ride.
We stand upon the cusp of the end of this world. The clock is ticking, and "the real world" is soon to take its place. This world is on its downward slope... It has existed for ten thousand years and only for ten thousand years and its beings are convinced this playground will never end.
These are The Latter Days of The World Between The Worlds.
Who will you be?

Name: Chastity Nicollette
Race: Mortal/Demon Hybrid
Affiliation: Neutral Hedonist
Personality/History:
Chastity-- called "Chas" --unlike the true angels and demons who walk Proto-Earth, knows not Hell and she knows not Heaven, she knows only the playground. Born of the coupling of an incubus and a mortal woman, she was raised with a heart of gold and a soul of lust. Literally fueled by sexual activity, she eats no food nor drink but thrives and drives from being made to orgasm and causing others to orgasm. Indeed, while this is a source of nourishment for her, it's also something of an addiction... as much as she would often prefer to be monogamous, she must have a varied diet in order to survive, even prowling the streets at night for new and interesting lovers.
She possesses the extrasensory ability to "read" a person's sexual disposition. More intuitive than anything else, this gift permits her to tell if a person is pent-up sexually or experimental, or predatory... while she cannot actually determine a person's orientation at a glance, she can tell if they are open to seduction or if they are closed to it. (For instance, she will not seduce a man who would prefer to remain committed to his wife, nor will she take a lover who is ill-prepared by youth and upbringing to withstand the rigours of a sexual relationship.)
Half-demon, she is immune to sickness and fatigue and poison, and she is remarkably strong and resistant to injury.
Her eyes glow when she is passionate. Her eyes glow rather frequently.
Perhaps interestingly, she possesses the somewhat unique ability to fall hard for any being that she's with, though this can be a gift and a curse: she loves every one of her lovers, and she expresses friendship through sex.
She dwells in the apartments of The Citadel of Atlantis, in full view of the surrounding azure-blue ocean. She lives there with her girlfriend, Gwenyvyre, who, luckily for Chastity, is remarkably understanding.

Name: Gwenyvyre
Race: Naiad/Dryad Hybrid
Affiliation: Neutral Hedonist
Personality/History:
Gwenyvyre-- called "Gwen" --led a fairly idyllic existence out in the far natural reaches of The Verdant, a woodland the size of a continent, trees and mountains and waterfalls for weeks of travel in every direction. Her innocence, however, would soon give way to intrigue, as Chastity would stumble upon her in this world, and her burning yearning curiosity to know the world that Chastity knew would cause her to travel with her back to Atlantis. Since then, Gwen has somehow maintained a certain quality of serenity and wholesomeness... despite often participating with her highly-sexual lifemate in a vast assortment of carnal adventures.
Lavishly curvaceous and unthinkingly sensual, Gwen is the product of a coupling between a Dryad and a Naiad. The circumstances of her birth are as curious as they are controversial, given that nymphs are always only ever female. Like Dryads and Naiads, she is a Nature spirit, and she thrives on the worship and approval and affection of others. (This is fortunate, because the right kind of sex can be all of those things, and this means she derives almost as much affirmation and sustenance from romps with lovers as does her lifemate Chastity.) Unlike Dryads and Naiads, she is not permanently bonded to either a single tree or a single source of water, but communes with all waters and with all plants, this providing the other half of her own balanced "diet."
(Granted, in the stony-gold urban mystech environment of Atlantis, communion with Nature is often difficult, but to compensate Chas and Gwen keep a vast assortment of houseplants in their apartment, and take frequent showers together, and this seems to suffice. Also, Gwen will often visit her mothers in The Verdant, and this will also help to sustain her.)
She possesses a limited ability to control plants and to manipulate water.
Ageless and kind, Gwen loves Chas dearly and would do just about anything for her, even as she knows Chas feels the same towards her.

...this is a bit of exploratory fiction. Even I'm trying to figure out where it's going from here. There may be a little bit of fighting-- clashing of swords between angels and demons who aren't quite abiding by the unspoken truce --a little bit of philosophy-- there are those who feel in their bones that the world is ending soon, and there's a struggle to cope with that sensation of mortality --and a lot of beautiful characters romping together in the sack.
In case you haven't guessed already, this will be highly anime-influenced, though it's not derived from any specific anime. Almost anything goes. Super-powers, dark magic, paladins and blackguards, normal humans and fur-bearing anthropomorphs and winged centaurs.
But bear in mind, this world is not inherently war-like. It's an awkward co-existence, but murder is nearly unheard-of and full-fledged conflict is utterly taboo. There can be violence, true, brawling in the streets, fisticuffs between suitors and sparring between warriors and disagreements galore... but in the ten thousand years of this world's existence, no-one has ever died at the hands of another.
That being the case, there's a certain kind of trust... even of complete strangers... amongst the peoples of Proto-Earth that our Earth lacks.
If you're interested in playing a character in this world, please PM me a bio influenced by the ones posted here, and I'll see what I think. Granted, I don't guarantee approval? But even as I reserve the right to tell you "no," I am also very open to ideas.
(More in-depth histories of this world and its sectors can be provided if need be, but I prefer to leave as much as I can up in the air.)
Whaddaya say, folks?
