forbiddenabode Welcome to Hennas, literally the city of angels. It is a city devoid of sin and imperfections designed by angels. Approximately 100 years ago the angels grew sick and tired of the state of earth. The human race was indulging in a vast amount of sin. So down flew an army of angels to mercilessly conquer the human race. Now humans live in cities patrolled by seemingly omnipresent angel soldiers. These angels observe humans for any sign of sin. Their tyrannous rules and regulations have moulded the mortals into a race of emotionless dolls. Every mortal has been magically perfected into beautiful creatures to stop the envying of beauty. There are no bars, clubs or casinos. Shops only sell plain necessities and cafes only serve healthy wholesome foods. Below is a list of the laws and punishments of the land:
1. Sins of lust are forbidden. - All clothing must completely cover the body: breasts, legs, torsos must not be visible. Punishment for this is an ugly spell. - If you are caught flirting then you are fined £350. - If one is caught lusting over another the penitent walks within flames to purge himself of lustful/sexual thoughts and feelings. - To avoid lust love has been banished. All marriages are agreed by angel officials on grounds of needs and compatibility. - Sex outside of wedlock is forbidden. The punishment is castration. - Homosexuality is forbidden. The punishment for these deviants is correction classes and a walk within flames to purge themselves. (Of course homosexual characters are allowed in the role-play. My characters will be bisexual.) - Curfew of 21:00-08:00. If caught you spend between 24 hours and 5 weeks in a correction unit.
2. Sins of Gluttony are forbidden. - Shopping for unnecessary objects is forbidden. The punishment is a fine of £500. - Alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, caffeine, junk foods are contraband. Imprisonment for this is 30 years is the punishment. - All meals should take no longer than an hour and are eaten at 8:00, 12:00 and 17:00. - Everyone is paid the same wage and is allocated jobs best suited to their abilities. - Holidays are taken twice a year to preapproved destinations.

Disloyalty includes to your family, friends and the Divine Leader. - Deliberate betrayal, or treason is punished with a visit to the correction unit. - Bribery and scavenging is punished with a visit to the correction unit. - Theft is punished by death. - Simony is punished with painful death.
4. Sin of sloth are forbidden. - Melancholy: apathy, depression, and joylessness are forbidden. Lessons of happiness are the punishment. - Oversleeping and idleness is punished by heavy labor. - To deal with sloth all residents are required to do activities to help the community or improve themselves. All classes and courses are free. Voluntary pursuits are encouraged and rewarded. Conversation is encouraged so are non-competitive sports such as hiking. Meditation is also considered a virtue.
5. Sins of wrath are forbidden. - Vehement denial of the truth as outlined by the Divine Order, both to others and in the form of self-denial, impatience with the procedure of law, and the desire to seek revenge outside of the workings of the justice system are punished with a visit to the Correction centre. - If one feels angry they must meditate. - Violence is punished by heavy labour to work the anger out of the system. - Swearing is punished by an electric shock collar. Electric shocks are administered every time a swear word has been spoken. - Jokes are outlawed as are insults.
6. Sins of envy are forbidden. - Envy is punished by having the eyes sewn shut with wire or a week.
7. Sins of hubris are forbidden. - Vanity and narcissism are punished by walking with stone slabs bearing down on their backs in order to induce feelings of humility through the city.
Humans and angels are not the only creatures living in this city. There are a small rebel group of demons trying to blend in. They aim to overthrow the Divine Order and restore freedom to the city. In this city you may play a human or demon.
forbiddenabode Rules 1. Please pm profiles and questions to me with the title Forbidden Sins. 2. This is a literate roleplay. A literate roleplayer uses basic grammar correctly the majority of the time. My personal pet peeve is people not capitalising I. A literate roleplayer is also able to spell correctly the majority of the time. Everyone makes the odd mistake. 3. I love detail and fluff in a roleplay. This means I loathe one-liners. You will post a minimum of two paragraphs ranging between 5-10 lines. 4. All sexualities are very welcome. 5. You can swear but remember that your character maybe punished for it. 6. You can be violent but remember that your character maybe punished for it. 7. Please include a roleplay sample. This can be from another roleplay, a link or something specially written for me. Try and make them at least two paragraphs long. 8. Do not post until you have been accepted. 9. Please try and be active.
forbiddenabode ProfilesRemember to include a roleplay sample. There is no bio because virtually everyone has a similar life story in such a regimented land. I have also let out the personality because I am sure that you will all feel much happier if you are allowed to develop it throughout the roleplay instead.
