    [X] Halaku

    That's right, that's right. Now you remember. You were a reaper. Angel of death. Slayer. Those were your names.

    You led ghosts to the afterlife, and you could keep them from it as well. You watched the humans as the things they loved died, and felt sadness that you could not justify their deaths to them. (You'll admit, you cried a bit watching them cry.)

    The wind cuts some more, and your mind travels farther back. You remember before the Abyss.

    The other's didn't very much like you before the rebellion. That's alright. You dealt with it in your own way.

    ...actually, speaking of that, how did you deal with it? What drove you to action? What sort of person where you?

    [PICK YOUR NATURE]

    [ ] Addict - You focused more on the things you had to have
    [ ] Architect - You focused on building something grand and lasting
    [ ] Bon Vivant - You immersed yourself in pleasures and joys instead
    [ ] Bravo - You confront those who despised you directly
    [ ] Caregiver - You ignored them in favor of helping out those who needed help
    [ ] Child - You ran to under the wings of others, who took care of you
    [ ] Competitor - You challenged them, and you definitely won
    [ ] Conniver - You plotted and schemed against them
    [ ] Curmudgeon - You.... actually didn't do anything? Huh. You just sort of complained.
    ] [ Deviant - What? Bully? Nah, you were too much of a freak to notice
    [ ] Director - You set things back in their natural order
    [ ] Fanatic - It didn't really matter. You were consumed with something greater.
    [ ] Gallant - You defended others, and basked in adoration from the saved
    [ ] Gambler - You played a very careful game of chance with them
    [ ] Judge - You dealt with it systematically and lawfully
    [ ] Loner - Didn't matter, you don't hang out with people anyways
    [ ] Martyr - You are such a M. You gleefully accepted their shunning for the sake of others
    [ ] Masochist - Wait, no, I was wrong. You're the total M
    [ ] Monster - You destroyed them with heartless and relentless fury
    [ ] Pedagogue - You fought them with words and knowledge
    [ ] Penitent - You deserved it anyways and it was just your penance
    [ ] Perfectionist - You dealt with it in the most elegant and perfect way possible
    [ ] Rebel - You fought the powa
    [ ] Rogue - You took care of yourself and left your fellow Halaku to dry
    [ ] Survivor - You dealt with it in stride and kept going
    [ ] Thrill Seeker - You played them in wondrous games of danger
    [ ] Traditionalist - You respect that it was the way things had always been done
    [ ] Trickster - You pranked them. You pranked them so hard
    [ ] Visionary - You had a dream. And you carried it out

    Angel of Death whose outlet was creating elaborate, multi tiered pranks to mess with people. Bonus points if we managed to make someone completely paranoid about a prank we would pull, and them being paranoid about our prank Was the whole prank.

    I can get behind the Trickster Death.

    something interesting to note here, the Angel of Death constructed the underworld after the fall as they did not know where Human souls endet up after dying and they feared that they would be lost forever.

    Remember, the Fallen World is a reflection of the Supernal, and vice versa. As above, so below; just as the Exarchs rule over the Supernal, so too does the God-Machine rule over the Fallen World. And just as the Exarchs usurped control over the Supernal, so too there is no evidence that the God-Machine created the world, merely that it rules over it.

    Eh, I must admit that a Halaku who fought on the frontlines is much more appealing to me than one of the Halaku who abandoned the war effort to build the Underworld. The angelic host is much more interesting when members of all the houses are interacting with one another.

    Given that Exalted is the prehistory of the oWoD, I think the Neverborn would disagree there.

    Exept that we have people that remember building it. And Demon and Exalted 1st edition don`t mix up to well especialy as we learn who the imbued, which people thing are the solar exalted are created. But then you could also answer how the Dragonbloded became a species of wraiths that Exalt after dying. You can mix up either one and it messes with the remaining parts of the world of darkness but not both.

    [X] Trickster

    That's right. You were a trickster. You used humor to defuse situations, and it was your sword and shield. But you also used it to teach, and to guide, to soothe and to heal.

    You were pretty uncommon for a Halaku. When the Lord first created you, he named you Asarel. You are the joy of god, in bringing it to others, and to yourself.

    ....Asarel, you whisper to yourself, and your essence binds together. It begins to assume a familiar form.

    Your visage...

    [ ] Namtar - the Visage of death itself
    [ ] Nergal - the Visage of the spirits who exist after death
    [ ] Ereshikigal - the Visage of the realms that hod the dead
