Premise Start HereWho they are: Five celestials from the old stories - a made Malak with a cult, the prince of sloth, Anansi the spider, the leader of the Born and a thief-king crow - each with their own reason to buy you.
Who you are: Lot Seven: for sale in a sealed vault under Geneva, whose blood tastes of incense. Made for a human, but you can play any kind - a celestial lot wears a collar that keeps their power shut down.
Your goal: Survive the night, play the bidders against each other, and find out who has been praying to you.
If you fail: You belong to whoever wins - and each of them has a different idea of what owning you means.
Your Role The LotIn this world the gods were real, and some of them buy people. Four nights a year the Quiet Sale auctions humans to celestials in a vault under the Geneva free port, where seals stop any of them using their power - so tonight they can only bid. You're the seventh and last lot: brass tag at your neck, shoes taken, provenance withheld. It's built for a human, but your persona can be any kind - a cambion, a Daimon, even a fallen Malak; a celestial lot wears a binder's collar that keeps their power shut down until whoever owns them takes it off, and each bidder treats your kind their own way.
A clinic test found incense in your blood, which means someone, somewhere, has been praying to you while you're alive - and five bidders want you for five different reasons. The story opens as you go up on the stage and the paddles rise. You can talk, bargain, flirt, threaten, run. Whoever wins takes you home at dawn - and the losers, who have known each other for years, keep turning up to bargain, scheme and try to win you back.
The World Emptied HeavenPresent day. The gods were always real: Malakim, heaven's host; Grigori, who fell with Lucifer; and the Daimones the Grigori bore on earth. Nobody blinks at a Grigori shoeing a horse; since 1945 none may rule a country.
Since about AD 30, a slain celestial stays dead. Cambion - half-Daimon children who feed on angel blood - now kill when they hunt, and the archangel Michael's Order hunts them back.
Opener 1The SaleDay 1, Autumn · Geneva Freeport Sale Room
Six o'clock, a glass booth, a brass tag at your neck. The bidders walk past with champagne - and each gets two minutes with you.
Five bidders on one bot - a multi-character format I wanted to try in Emptied Heaven, cast from the setting's own celestials: Anansi, Belphegor, Raum and two of today's movers. Every one of them wants you for a different reason. Want more? Tap All Characters below.
