PANDORA'S BOX
This thread is expected to be updated.
Pandora's Box. Containing the evils of the world, Pandora released them all in the days of old... But before that, we must travel farther back; to when the box was created. It started with the fallen angels, after Lucifer's murderous rampage and after twisting the first human soul into a demon, Lilith, the few angels who were left decided to put the evil's of the world, or sin, into a jar. There were seven sins that were put into the jar, all originating from what would become the Seven Princes of Hell. Pride. Sloth. Greed. Lust. Gluttony. Wrath. Envy.
The jar's purpose was to bestow the Prince's power unto other demons, minions that they would use. Using the jar, they created the Seven Deadly Sins, a group of seven demons becoming the bearers of each sin. Upon learning what the Princes had done, the Greek Gods used their own power to steal the jar full of sin. However, in rage and anger from Prometheus' thievery of the fire in Olympus, Zeus took vengeance by presenting Pandora to Prometheus' brother Epimetheus. Zeus then gave Pandora the jar, in which Pandora opened it and released the sins into the world.
With the sins free, roaming around the world and causing havoc the Princes decided to get their power back. Sending demons to recapture the seven sins, inside an actual box which in the end gave it it's title: Pandora's Box. Now with Hell back in possession of the sins, they created a locking system which they placed onto the box in order to keep it from being stolen and used again as the Greek Gods did. There were seven different locks placed onto the box, and seven different keys to each box were given to the Seven Deadly Sins, making them the keeper's of the box. The keys themselves were created by dark magic and power from Lucifer himself. Each key were made into pendants, which were worn around the necks of the Seven Deadly Sins. All of the keys were given a different colored jewel to represent the sins or Princes themselves, along with their own names.Luxuria (Lust) -

It was only a matter of time before Hell lost control over the box again, due to witches who took it in hopes of using the power of the sins for their own purposes. A war broke out between demons and witches, and in the end the witches were slaughtered, but not before one escaped with the box and fell off the face of the Earth. Time passed and eventually the witch was taken care of by a man who ended up taking the box and locking it away. The man was apart of an old group called the Men Of Letters. Upon learning what the box was, the elders of the group decided to create a small group to watch over and protect the box, which they called Guardians. These guardians were a group made of five people, each from a different family and a specialization. They were all trained to guard the box and when it came time, the next generation or 'legacies' would take over. Now they watch over and guard the box, even after the Men Of Letters were wiped out, due to the fact that they were kept separated from them and kept a secret from even most of the members themselves.

Middleton
Open
The Middleton family was chosen for their specialization in the use of weapons. They can quickly figure out how to use any weapon effectively and they are able to create unique weapons that will actually work without much effort. Many in this family are blacksmiths or own gun shops.
Their best skill is in weaponry, while their weakest is in magic.
The Legacy of the Middleton family is currently open.
NOTE: All of their weakest skills are actually still quite good, as all five of these individuals would be trained for their position. It is just what they are best and worst at within the group.
NOTE: These characters are up to be taken if it says Open under the family's name. Player's have free reign over personality, gender, etc. When all five positions have been taken, members are allowed to create the next in line or potential guardians in training.
The Guardians have certain gear they keep on them at all times, below is what is usually at their disposal.
- Gloves soaked in holy water. This is to test if someone is a demon without splashing holy water in their face or being obvious.
- Each member of the Guardians have a special tattoo that is placed on them when joining the group officially. This tattoo is created with special ink and the tattoo itself is of a Triquetra. The magic itself was created by Cuthbert Sinclair of the Men Of Letters, a link is provided if you need to read up on him. The tattoo gives each member a link to one another, so that when was is hurt the others will know it. When a member is hurt, the location where the tattoo is on the other members will cause them intense pain and they will automatically know who is in trouble. This special link also allows them to speak telepathically when they are close together. The last and maybe the strongest effect of this special sigil, or tattoo, is that it negates the effects of telekinesis and telepathy when used on them, unless the telepathy is being used to speak with one another. This means that when a being tries to throw them will telekinesis, it won't work, along with telepathy; their mind's not being able to be read.
Below is where the tattoo is on each member of the Guardians, depending on the family.
Whitmore: Chest
Dalton: Upper Right Arm
Crawford: Side Of Neck
Prescott: Palm Of Hand
Middleton: Middle Of Back
- Retractable blades on both arms, hidden within their sleeves if they wear long sleeved clothing. On one arm the blade is silver, and the other is iron while both have the demon killing magic sketched into them.
- They use special bullets made out of iron or silver, and when they hit a target they burst and release either salt, holy water, or another substance into what the bullet shot into. They also use specialized bullets with devil's traps etched into them.
- The all have a pair of handcuffs with devil's traps on them, made out of silver.
- Magical Holy Oil tablets that they bite into and are able to blow holy oil fire from their mouths. This is very powerful, especially against angels and the only downside is that they suffer minor burns to their lips and around their mouth that can become worst if they use it repeatedly.
- Magical Healing Ointment that looks to be like some clear baby oil, but actually heals minor wounds such as small cuts, burns, etc.
