Thousands of years ago it was foretold to the human race that their world would end in a fiery destruction, mankind wiped from the face of the planet.
An apocalypse.
 
At the forefront of this m*censored* genocide four demons riding on loyal steeds, their faces covered by the blackness of their cloaks. The Four Horsemen was the name they were given and behind them the very entity of evil came raining down. Humans learned to fear this, fear that they would look up into the night sky and spot the ghostly riders of their emanate doom. The foreteller of the apocalypse gave each rider a name to go by so man kind would know what was coming; what to expect. 
 
The first was Conquest, the rider of the demonic White Horse. He carries a bow and a golden crown of victory. 
The second was War, the rider of the red horse. In his hand he carries a red sword said to the stained by the blood of battle.
The third is Famine, the rider of the demonic black horse. This rider carries scales off his right hand.
The fourth is Death, the rider of the pale horse. He carries a scythe and is known to be the very one to bring the blackness; or as some say Hades or the Devil follows him.
 
The Gods caught wind of this prophecy and the demise of their followers and grew angry. In their fit of rage the Gods waged a war on the demons who had been rumored to be holding these Horsemen, almost throwing the world they'd sought to save into disaster. But alas the Horsemen were not in Hell, but rather hidden in their own created sanctuary. Countless demons had been slaughtered, among them Hades son. The Lord of the Underworld was now out for revenge. But it was not against the Gods Hades blood lust loomed, but rather the famed Horsemen who would destroy everything. For centuries this lust for vengeance grew, until word of the Horsemen's hideout was unearthed and all hell literally broke lose on the unsuspecting Apocalyptic riders. They were destroyed, wiped clean from the face of Heaven, Hell, and their target earth. Their demon mounts were confiscated, brought to the bowls of Hades realm to question then later released. 
 
Little did the demons nor Gods know was that the Horsemen were cunning and knew what was going to befall them. Each had one child, born to a human woman to never meet their legendary fathers yet to bring about the destruction prophesied. Each with unlimited powers, and a demon steed teaching them what their fathers would have wanted them to know. These children of the apocalypse main danger? Perhaps it is the fact that the demons have caught the news that the Horsemen had a child and now are setting out to kill them. Perhaps it is their growing unstable power. Maybe it is one another. Or perhaps it is their mentality, knowing that they must destroy the world. Do they really have a choice?
 
But this is not where the story begins, rather it is before these kids find out their heritage, before they gain any sort of power and the talking horses. They are just fatherless teens with normal problems.
At least for now. 
 
~-~-~-~-~
 
- Each person can choose which horsemen they would like.
- The powers of each character can be anything, it has nothing to do with their father.
-You may have more then one character, but only one may be a apocalyptic child.
- We will start at a camp deep in a nearby woods, before the teens find out about their heritage. 
 
Characters
Conquest, White horse -  Det
War, Red horse - Stray
Famine, Black horse - Siri

OoC: Stray, you make me blush! ^///^ I really do love your posts, and I'm sure that you can help me get better.

Would it be OK if I called for the daughter of Famine?

>.< I missed this the first time, lol~

EDIT

The Basics:
Name: Zephyra Huntress Quiakides
Pronunciation: Zeh-FIre-ah, Key-aqua-dees::
Age: 18 years old
Gender: Female
Father: Horsemen of Famine
Mother: Susan Quiakides
Siblings: None. 

The Appearance:
Distinguishing Features: 5’8’’
Preferred Cloths: I like my skinny jeans, tank tops, sweat shirts, and comfy shoes.
Looks: I have waist length, light blonde hair that is typically kept in a braid. I have pale skin and I burn within twenty minutes of straight sun, so I always have sun block in a bag during the summer. Slim yet not too skinny, I like to keep myself in shape. My eyes are a vivid blue. They could be described as living sapphires, but they lighten or darken with my mood.

The Personality:
Loves: Music, adrenaline rushes, horses, swimming lakes and oceans, being outdoors
Likes: Playing with fire, reading, drawing, exploring, animals; big cats in particular, spring and fall
Dislikes: Running, being looked down on, not meeting expectations, large gatherings, plastic people, spiders, bugs, cars
Pet Peeves: Mother…she is too protective. I’m being smothered.

A bit of a fire mouth, Zephyra holds her emotions close to the surface. Flippant on the outside, she actually holds everything said about her against people. She has a hard time accepting much praise or good grace from others because, in her heart, she believes that everyone is just using her like a tool. People can over look her oddly placed humor and comments easily so Zephyra finds that she has a lot of friends. Although, she doesn’t really know them and she doesn’t want to get to know them. She may appear to be a trouble maker, but Alell does quite well in school. No matter how much she pouts and whines about the homework and tests, she actually enjoys them. Having never been into parting, Zephyra has also stayed clear of the wrong side of the law. Hoping to never really go there, since she would have a hard time sounding like an innocent maiden, Zephyra obeys laws and orders from her superiors well, with the exception of her mother.

The Other:
Power(s): I found that I can make plants, animals, crops, and anything to do with nature either prosper or die with a thought. It takes time and energy, so I am weak afterward. ::More to come as she progresses?::
Perfume (Scent): Lavender with Roses, fresh and sweet.
Quote: “What happens if you get scared half to death twice?”
Additional Information: N/A

Steed:
Name: Nykyrian
Pronunciation: NI-key-REE-un
Nickname: Nyk
Normal
: tle="xXx">~^~
Eyes: tle="xXx">~^~
Demonic: tle="xXx">~^~ 

Nykyrian is a well built Friesian stallion. With a coat as black as the galaxy, this stallion stands at 16.2 hands tall, which is a typical height for the breed but large compared to others like the delicate Arabians. The only thing unusual about the hairy beast is his eyes. Like sea foam from the ocean, they are a beautiful mixture of blue and green, much like turquoise. These odd eyes shine with an intense intelligence that only human eyes should hold and his attitude rivals most humans as well.

(I take no credit for the Demonic Horse Picture. I just love it, being that I am an Avatar fan, and couldn't resist. ^.^ Not very scary, but...yeah. I might think about wings...I don't know.)

OoC: Siri; Aww, thank you ^.^ Your praise makes me feel all warm and special. Of course you can be Famine's daughter.

SnowWolf: I'm so sorry! I did not look at my master list when creating this. But I r-mailed you something I hope will make up for it.

Det: The child of conquest, thats sounds good to me! You really don't have to know who they are, their stated in the Bible, but I mixed things up quite a bit for the plot. All you have to know is their names and the color of their mount.

OoC: Stray, um, I have a question...The horses' demon form is another animal or human, or something all together different? And I might change my character to a boy. I just don't know yet.

OoC: Just to clarify this 
This RP has absolutely nothing to do with the Bible or any sort of Religion
The Horsemen idea was in the Bible, but everything else, such as leading the apocalypse or what not is my own idea lol. There, had to get that out ^.^
 
Siri; The demon form is just what the horse actually looks like. The horses are actually demons, so they look like demons. For example it can be a horse with fangs, wings, bones protruding from it's back, flames for a mane, ect. 
 
Det; I'v never read the Bible myself, and i'm Christian (or is it Catholic? I never can remember which we are). It does not really matter.
 
Ser; Your character does not have to be anything like the original Horsemen, they can be totally different with their own traits and abilities.

((Lurk Lurk. The ti
tle on this made me laugh. It reminded me of the headless horsemen, but then I saw the word 'apocalyptic' in the ti
tle. That made me think of a horseman with a pumpkin as a head running around with his sythe, killing innocent creatures of the earth. Turns out, I was WAY off. I'm going to stop spamming your page now.))

 Name :: 
Jace Sanders  

 Gender :: 
Male
 
Age ::
Twenty
 
Father ::
Horseman of War
 
Personality ::
Jace is a very easy going person, laid back and not really caring all that much about his future. He is not one to care if he hurts someones feelings if it is about something he believes deeply in or it's something the other person needs to know. All-in-all he's a blunt, straight to the point kind of person. Not one to care about anyone else's feelings that he does not know, or wants to know, he'll tell a someone off just for the heck of it just to see what kind of reaction he can get. Jace is quite selfish if he really wants to be, which tends to be most of the time, unless he knows you. Friends are hard for him to gain, seeing as he has some trust issues, but once you worm your way into his heart your stuck there. He won't give up a friendship very easily. He's over protective and extremely loyal to his friends and mother and is not afraid to steal to get what they want. Jace is not always on the right side of the law and has learned to be street smart over the years and knows how to take care of himself if it gets him into trouble or not. 
 
Likes ::
 Annoying people for the fun of it, watching the stars and naming constellations, kids and children or anything under the age of ten, the season Fall.
 
Dislikes ::
 The color pink, really hot days, cops or anything really that has to do with the law, school.
 
Family ::
His mother Sayna
 
Scholarship? ::
 Graduated high school and two years of college.
 
Looks ::
 
Jace is fairly tall, standing at about 6'3 in height, with an average build that is boarder lined muscular. He has tanned skin with no blemishes or markings. He has dark blonde hair, getting darker towards the roots and looks more sun bleached blonde towards the tips, that is shortish (not military cropped though). He tends to keep it in a spikish like style that is consistently messy. His eyes are a bright blue always seeming to shine with a  mischievousness nature. He tends to wear a loser shirt with a pair or worn jeans above anything else. As for distinctive traits, Jace has an eyes brown piercing in one brown and a tattoo running from his right wrist to his right shoulder and midway down his back.

 Horse Look :: 
~
 http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/Fallenwind/SatinPrince_ref237.jpg

 Demonic Horse Form ::
The body of this horse is just like any normal horse except for a few things. Small spurs come out of his front legs knee caps and look like large claws. His hooves are double cloved and the tips are dagger like. The last thing is that his spinal bone is wrong side out. Instead of it being under the skin it is above it where it is visible. His coat is a fiery red still and his mane is long and silky (unlike the picture). His head is not as 'normal' looking as his body.

 Powers :: 
Jace has the ability to see the dead and hear them, though it tends to cause psychological problems. He can also sprout black demon wings, though this is quite painful seeing as they literally 'rip' from his back. 
 
Other::
 He is good friends with Faythe, having met her while on the streets. 

 _____________________________________ 

Name ::
  Faythe Keir
 
Gender ::
Female

Age ::
Nineteen

Personality ::
In the way of a personality Faythe has little of one. Never one to smile, crack jokes, or even nod a friendly greeting to people she knows on the streets, she would rather communicate with her fists. Socially backwards, Faythe knows little on how to communicate with people her own age, preferring the much more cold, serious conversations of adults when forced to converse; she easily blows up when spoken to like she some rash child. Yet Faythe is very rash, jumping head first into a fight or argument without thinking it through or looking for backup. She dislikes contact of any sorts and quickly over reacts if accidentally touched; and by over reacts she aimed a hard punch towards their stomach or face. One with trust issues, only if she's known you for years will she allow you around her for any periods of time over five minutes. She considers no one a friend, and if someone tries to become one she swiftly pushes them away with a rude comment or snarky remark. But all of this is to hide what she truly feels, though she will never admit it, that she is actually just a lost little girl in the big bad world.  
 
Likes ::
The night and the cover it brings, the prospect of finally being free of her past, reading, Stealing from those much more fortunate then most, annoying people.


Dislikes ::
Large crowds, Men in general, the color pink, Cheesy vampire movies.


Family ::
Ratha (mother), Cayan (deceased father)


Scholarship? :: 
Dropped out of high school her freshman year, has no intentions of ever going back.


Looks ::
She stands at about 5'6 and is quite hostile about it, with a lean body type that hides her unfeminine muscles. But she's not about looking pretty, but rather defending herself. She has a small face with high, prominent cheek bones, hollow cheeks, think-ish lips, small chin and a high forehead. Her eyes are a forest green, cold and hard with brown flecks dotting the center towards the iris. Her hair is just past shoulder length and straight, a dark brown boarding on black and flips out slightly towards the bottom. She tends to wear skinny jeans and tennis shoes, both made for running, and a lose shirt. Her ears are pierced multiple times as is her nose.

Other ::
To understand Faythe's personality and why she does what she does you have to understand her past. At one point in time she was a happy little girl, living with her mother and father and being number one in her parents hearts. At least thats what she thought until her mother ran off with another man when Faythe was eight. Her father became increasing violent and angry afterwards and became a drunk. Their money was quickly lost. Her father blamed Faythe for their misfortune and began beating the young child, leaving bruises and whelps that teachers at her elementary schools never really asked about. It was like everyone had betray her. When she turned sixteen her father began using her as a form of money, creating her hatred towards most men and her black heart. She dropped out of school to hide her wounds.
 
At age seventeen Faythe ran away from home with nothing but the dirty cloths on her back, never wanting to look back. She came to the city, looking to make a better life for herself, but no one would help or look at the pathetic excuse for human life with her hollow eyes, bruises, and fiery hatred. In despair she tried to end her life, only to be saved by one of the large underground gangs of the city. From there she became one of them, learning to fight and defend herself, to steal, to hurt those that hurt her. But she never fully trusted any of them, always watching her back and becoming more and more detached from the cruel world. Again she skipped town only a few months later, knowing now how to help herself and herself alone. But on the constant move she met Jace, a college student with a high flying attitude and the willingness to let her be herself and never prod into her private life. He was the first person in years she'd allowed to create a small bond with and this continues to this day. She stays with him, though they are nothing more then friends and thats all they ever will be, and watched his back as he watched hers.

Wow, board ish being spammed with lots of Religious talk, but oh well. As long as bio's get placed and i'm learning something.
