God Damned Problem

[[A few days after the headache]]

I’m fine,,, I’m fine..

We work in the same platoon within our Legion, so we see each other often. Elizaveta was apparently a decorated military officer in her mortal life, so she was naturally gifted with that when she was reborn. She joined our platoon predestined to work with strategic planning and manipulation. Diederik joined around the same time as I did, so we were born and institutionalized at the same time before being assigned to the platoon. He does well with contracts based on economic desires and greed.He also smokes like a fucking freight train.

He’s on his last leg in the Middle Realm as-is, but his desperation is pathetically amusing. The nations have a long and messy history with summoning devils and demons and using them for their political or economic needs, but these recent reincarnations are greedy. This Russia has been in cohorts with Monika for almost two centuries at this point, and I don’t think he realizes how heavily his contracts are weighing on not only his life force, but that of his own people.  Just like all former empires, he’s sold more than only his soul for immediate gratification, not thinking of the future. He can’t see past his own nose and he’s made enough deals for us to slaughter everyone near him.  In fact, I heard he first traded the lives of his two sisters without even consulting them! The bloodshed when it was time to collect on their dues was apparently enough to create the entire Fourth Legion of Hell, twice over!  When his time arrives, I really will love to see his punishment. I can only hope they’ll permit me to take part in administering it before he is reborn.

I don’t think I’m anything?

Hey everyone! I’m going to be giving you some basic information points for this AU!

>So, first off: Yes, the other nations do exist in this AU, unless they are angels/demons.

>If a country is an angel/demon, they are NOT alive within the AU and then do not appear in the world as a country. That country is usually occupied, then, by a 2p!

> 2p! characters are not called 2p!’s, they are like a reincarnated embodiment of a nation after a major, life-changing event has happened (So Arthur and Oliver have no relation to one another and Oliver did not exist until Arthur died, for example, were Arthur an angel/demon).

> DEVILS are unaware of their previous lives. It’s part of their “punishment”.

>There are numerous reasons for a nation in particular to be chosen as an angel or a devil, many however don’t really know what happened. Their deaths and births in the afterlife are them as new beings.

>There are 2p!/s in the after life as well.

> THIS TAKES PLACE IN AN ENTIRELY ALTERNATE REALITY. Countries may no longer exist, power balances will have shifted,wars will have happened, etc., Assuming that, say, Germany is a powerful nation in this AU may not entirely be correct.

>I have no partner blogs and this is the only blog associated with this AU. As of this moment I have no interest in opening it for other blogs to join and am not looking for a partner blog. I may change my mind in the future if I should find a reason and the story permits it to be acceptable. :)

>ALL related information will be searchable under “SDB”. The tag I am using for this AU is SDB, short for Sweet Devil Belarus.

SOCIAL STRUCTURE OF THE UNDERWORLD/HELL:

> Satan/Hades/Pluto etc. are all the same person: The ruler of Hell. He is NOT a nation and thus not a Hetalia character and probably won’t show up much.

>Beneath Satan are the Seven Deadly Sins, whom are the most powerful and pure devils within all creation.

>Beneath the seven sins are the four dukes of Hell, whom own a single territory (A Legion)  in which the devils and demons are divided between.

>Beneath the Dukes are Devils, and within devils are their own hierarchy >> Devils are creatures brought to Hell who have participated in a particular (or multiple) sins and carried devastating acts in their names. They are granted greater powers and commendations, and are granted the “Essence” of said sin (explained later).

>Beneath devils are demons, whom also have their own hierarchy >>Demons are lesser beings and/or entirely brimstone creatures created through Hell Engines. They often due the bidding of higher-rated devils and are similar to the cavalry of the armies. Weak demons are practically living robots without any true consciousness of their own. Powerful demons rival the weakest of devils and vie for power and favoritism of higher ranking devils and dukes.

DEVILS:

>Devils Have a unique hierarchy based on strengths, weaknesses, their Essences, and many other factors such as usefulness, intelligence, brute strength, etc. A smart devil may be mid-ranking while a highly intelligent, albeit “weak” devil may have greater reach.

> A devil’s essence is a part of their internal makeup. The Seven Sins are infinitely vast beings. Depending on a devil’s previous life, one or more (up to three) Sins may offer their “essence” to a devil, granting them powers and typically greater rank. These Essences also define the devil’s personality, their legion, their assignments, and what type of sin they favor committing or causing in the mortal realm.  

>Devils lack humanity. Love, body shame, empathy, sympathy, affection, curiosity, and questioning their existence/chasing dreams, hope, etc., are things devils and demons simply do not do. They are stripped of the “Good” and “pure” within them when they “Fall from Grace”.

ANGELS:

>Angels and devils are constantly vying for power within the mortal realm.

> Angels Have their own hierarchies that Natalia and most devils know very little about

>Angels and devils do not recognize one another if they knew one another in their previous lives

>Angels are not stripped of their memories, and those of high status can even investigate the memories and lives of devils and other creatures.

>Angels can embody the virtues in a negative light

RULES:

I have very few rules, but please keep them in mind.

Please keep all questions directed at Natalia unless stated otherwise. There are numerous other characters but the blog will remain focused on her.

I do take AU’s. This is still a fun experience and not everything has to forward the story/plot.

Feel free to ask any in depth questions regarding this list, I can always try to explain more. This list is certainly here to not only serve as a reminder but to also give you ideas regarding this blog. :)

Interactions are welcomed. Considering this is an AU where even the mortal world is set in an alternate reality and timeline, I’m not going to be picky regarding other AU blogs or regular Hetalia nation blogs interacting with me! < 3

Please keep cursing to a minimum. There are certain words I absolutely hate is all, lol.

Please do not create a blog within this AU setting or using my AU ideas. You may ask me if I have changed my mind regarding partner blogs/opening the AU to be joined but please respect that these are my ideas and that I have a specific storyline and plot I am working on going through with this blog.

Do not repost my art. If you’re being really unsure about it, please ask me.
