(It's called Dark Deals and here is my pitch:

Through out all of history angels, humans, and demons have made deals to get what they want. These contracts were common and powerful in the past, but recently deals have stop being made and the beings that used to make contacts and even the art making deals have faded into legend. Now in modern day a new deal maker appears and is making trouble disrupting the current power balance. People are getting hurt and some are dyeing as a result of the contracts going bad. Like a genies wish it never turns out like used expect. Now a small group of angel solders, young demons, and mages are set out to find and stop this new deal maker before he sends the world spinning in to chaos, but when they find him will they be able to resist making a deal them selfs?)

SO, what cards for Thanatos and Azrael

So Thanatos is probably death not because of the obvious, but the death card is about cycles and how yea everything has an end, but also a beginning. upright: is about accepting change and reversed: is about fighting it. when you draw this card it mean that there is a large and important change going to happen in your life.

Azrael I don't remember a lot about him so if you maybe you could repost his character that could help me.

Name: Azrael
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Fairy tale/Story Parent: Chernabog (From Fantasia)
Appearance: Azrael is tall and lanky, standing at a towering 7”6. He is thin but not in the sense that he is weak, his body is well muscled and strong. His skin is a pale and sickly and his face is angular and pointed with a sharp nose and a strong jaw. His eyes are a startling yellow and his pupils are slits like a cat. He has dark bags under his eyes giving the impression that he hasn't slept. His hair is long and unkempt sticking in every direction and his bangs often cover his eyes. He wears a woven shirt under a long sleeved shirt as well as long pants and boots. (https://www.pinterest.com/pin/293226625729950064/ This is him)
Personality: Azrael is cruel and sadistic, he feels no greater pleasure then watching the agony of his enemies. Past that he is quite comedic, making jokes often but mostly at the expense of others. Those traits alone normally scare others off but those who can look past that and can gain his trust would find a loyal friend and companion who would do anything for them.
Backstory: (Will be revealed over time.)
Other: His body can transform into a more demonic form e.g. Wings, horns, fangs, claws. Also, his father being the god of darkness and the night allows him to be able to control and solidify shadows turning them into deadly weapons. Not only that but he also has the potential to be able to summon legions of demons to fight for him but he has no control of this power. The only creature that he can summon is his pet shadow hound "Nox"

Theeere you go

fun fact because I have a recent obsession with angels! Azrael is also the angel (or archangel - it varies) of death

That’s how I got his name

I’m fairly well versed in my mythology

So if you want to stay in the major arcana then the Devil:
Meaning: It represents being seduced by the material world and physical pleasures. Also living in fear, domination and bondage, being caged by an overabundance of luxury, discretion should be used in personal and business matters.
Upright card (keywords): Temptation, Unhealthy relationships, Enslavement, Materialism, Bondage, Fear, Feeling trapped
Reversed card (keywords): Freedom from restraints, Breaking from addictions, Divorce

So I don't think the above fits very well, but it does fit "better" than the others; because the majority of what is left are cards about tradition (the hierophant, the Chariot, Strength, the hermit, and justice), Going with the flow(the wheel of fortune), Self sacrifice (the hanged man), Unity (the lovers), Cataclysm/Sudden change (the tower), Recovery (The star), Success (the sun), the archetypical mother(The empress) and father (the emperor). Lastly there is The World which is about conclusions and endings.

But if your willing to use the minor arcana I'd recommend The Knight of Swords:
When we are thoroughly obsessed by a certain idea and strongly wish to manifest it, we are oftentimes so blinded by the actual desire for its fulfillment that we fail to note the difficulties which we may come across, or the actions and consequences that it could bring. The Knight of Swords is a very powerful figure that is full of life as well as energy. This needs to be [but not always] balanced with a proper and actual realization of compassion and responsibility.

This reversed Knight is incredibly impatient, impulsive and bursting with energy. This person has so much energy but so little direction that this results in them making rash decisions and pulling down others with them.

The Knight sounds exactly like him

Yeah and sorry for the long part in the middle, but I didn't want you to think I was saying that he was less important by recommending a card from the minor arcana. It's just the major only has 22 cards and none of them fit the archetype that Azrael represents.

No no, it’s fine, he hasn’t been very important so far anyway XD

I plan to include him more once we start this rp up

I didn't want you to think that I thought less, because I really liked the character (even if he did try to kidnap Maddie ; D ) and I wanted to give him a card that fit a character this complex.

I know what you mean, thanks:D

I really like the idea of having him work for the white court as a bounty hunter or something

That is interesting and makes for an extremely difficult choice for Maddie if she were ever put in the position to save him or just not, because after knowing that he would become one of the things she is most scared of. She would never be able to rest thinking that he would take her back the the white court.

I also plan on bringing back the Vileling

Ok so the Vileling just a question: From the start did you intend for it to have atypical movement though time or did you just do that to ruin the plans for getting a look at it?

I had always planned for it to have some ability to manipulate time

Ok, just wondering.

When do you think we will be able to start this

Yay scarlet! It’s been awhile

(:D It has.

I don’t go on notebook as often as I used to. :/)

cool
I really love mythology so if I watch/read anything with mythology I tend to go and google the shit out of it lmao

I don't know I guess when someone create the new thread unless we want to get more of a skeleton created.

What about Althea??
