Competition: [Multi-Month Fiction] The Seven Levels of Hell

Finished
[Multi-Month Fiction] The Seven Levels of Hell

Prompt

The Dark Brotherhood is in need of agents and members who are strong, not weak. With the recent rise of The Collective, it has become clear to the Dark Council that agents who conspire for our downfall operate from within our ranks. Effective immediately, all must undergo the Seven Levels of Hell as a true test of loyalty to the Brotherhood, for we must purge The Collective scum.

Over the course of several months, members will place their main or alternative characters through a variety of simulations designed to push them to the brink - their ultimate breaking point. The characters will experience the Seven Levels of Hell, a unique simulation provided by the Dark Council to the membership in hopes of weeding out any disloyal or unfaithful followers. The Seven Levels of Hell is designed to force you to think outside the box, and get creative with your entries.

Phases

The Seven Levels of Hell are administered fictionally in a set of four (4) phases, throughout seven (7) competitions. The first three phases will each last a period of 2 months, with the final phase of the competition running the final month. Due to the nature of the competition, the loadout chosen at the beginning of each phase will be the one used until given phase ends. This ensures that the "test" is administered to you, but still allows your character to grow.

  • The phases are as follows:
    • Phase I: 12/02/2018 - 02/01/2019 (First and Second Levels of Hell)
    • Phase II: 02/02/2019 - 04/01/2019 (Third and Fourth Levels of Hell)
    • Phase III: 04/02/2019 - 06/01/2019 (Fifth and Sixth Levels of Hell)
    • Phase IV: 06/02/2019 - 06/03/2019 (Seventh Level of Hell)
