We have fifteen characters in this thread and two of them are pre-teen serial killers. That's more than 13%. This is not a good average.

This is about going to heaven or hell, nice people aren't fun to write about.

Name: Samuel Deyn
Sex: Male angel
Appearence: Tall, long blonde hair, stumps on his back where wings used to be.
Backstory: Sam was one of the angels whose task was to guard Heaven and make sure that no one got in from Hell. Then an escaped demon called Gary tricks Sam into believing that he is an angel by disguising himself as such, and should therefore be let into heaven. Sam is not all that bright for an angel. Gary is later caught by some other angels, Mike, Steve, and Richard (profiles to follow), who send him back to Hell and leave Sam there too - cutting off his wings so he can't come back up to heaven.
Location: Heaven -> Hell

God knows there's enough of 'em) tricks Sam into believing that he was cast into Hell by mistake and should therefore be let into heaven.

But people can't get to heaven if they're in hell. Also it would be easy to tell that they are from hell with the obvious post-torture look in people's eyes. Fix that up a bit?

You know, this would be good if some character's stories crossed.
We already have the freak 16 year old with the guy who got killed by a crowbar, we should have more of those.
Oh yeah, and you haven't added my war dude yet.
