Verin

Verin is a demon of impatience.  Because of this vice, he’s lost just about everything he owns to the Game (where demons bet on the lifespan of souls).

#3 – Shae

| November 3, 2011 | 2 Comments
ShaeShae is a 29-year old college grad who lives in a small town working whatever jobs people will give her.  Life seems to consistently deal her the worst possible hand.   She’s constantly switching jobs, fixing her vehicle, moving out/getting evicted.  She was actually accepted to an Ivy League school, however she could not get the financial aid to attend, so she chose a lesser known college that offered her a nearly full ride scholarship.  She earned a degree in theology, though she considers herself an atheist.

#2 – Minoson

Minoson
A demon who ensures winning in all things. Naturally, he’s not used to losing. At all. So when he does lose a bet to Zagam, he suspects foul play. In his latest bet, he is determined to catch Zagam in the act so he can then end him.

#1 – Zagam

| November 2, 2011 | 0 Comments

Zagam is a demon of deceit and frequent gambler in The Game (sort of a horse race where demons bet on human souls for sport).  He is well known for being a liar, thought it’s assumed that it is impossible to cheat in the Game.  The truth is, he’s been rigging the game for centuries.  For him, the Game is not sport.  It’s his way out of the Void (the place where all demons originate).
