    Your heart beat when you first saw her...
    And knowingly, you fell for her.
    Until that day she broke your heart...
    And left you in the rain.
    And yet, still you love her.
    Simply because...
    She is an angel in disguise...

    Love. You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

    Character no. 1





    Melody Aveline Faunt

    Age:
    18

    Gender:
    Female

    Pure Demon

    Most Used Power:
    For a female, Melody’s physical abilities are rather high; she is speedy and stealthy which can come in handy in close range battle; she has also come closer to mastering the elements of Earth and Fire, therefore leading her closer to the power of Darkness; she has learnt how to create, manipulate and destroy matter. This power, however, can take quite the toll on her if used too much. Sometimes it would be easier to run from the battle than to stand there and waste the time and energy on deconstructing the matter of her opponent, other times, it can lead to immense pain and very rarely cause her to start breaking the matter of her own body down.

    Personality:
    Cool, calm and collected, it takes quite a lot for Melody’s rage to break. She is easily frustrated and tends to exclaim her words when she is; however, she is almost never angered. Sitting back and watching is her forte in a crowd of people she doesn’t know; however, with friends, she can be quite the talker. For a Demon, she comes off seemingly innocent; she is childish more often than serious, but knows when to hold her tongue. She is quite the smartarse and will throw sarcastic comments about like a never ending game of hot potato.

    She is loyal to a T; she would follow her close friend, Vincent, to the ends of the realms and back; despite the fact she has no romantic feelings for him at all – she finds him too demonic (the irony befalls her). She isn’t very respectful of the lower races; she believes they don’t deserve it unless they earn it.

    Biography:
    Orphaned at a young age, due to the holy wars, Melody was subject to harsh living conditions. She made it her mission to only survive off the nobles; considering they could afford to do so. As a result, she mastered slipping through state of the art security charms, completely undetected. This led her to the Venetti house; a family stationed high up in the Demons world of politics.

    It was in Vincent’s bedroom that she was finally caught in her charade of sneaky antics. The proceeding conversation occurred:


    Vincent: “What are you doing?”
    Melody: “Nothing, what are you doing?”
    Vincent: “Going to bed; are you stealing from me?”
    Melody: “No,”
    Vincent: “Good, because that would be bad,”
    Melody: “How bad?”
    Vincent: “I’d have to kill you,”
    Melody: “That is bad,”
    Vincent: “Indeed... My parents are coming, get in the closet, because I’ll die if they find you,”



    Upon the coming and going of his parents, she proceeded to ask if she could leave his closet and house, in which he bluntly denied her permission; she was stuck there. Through the night she talked to him, speaking of ways he could overthrow his father and take the position as Head of the Venetti family and stated that she could help him if he so wished. It was really from then, where their friendship formed; she would continue to live in his closet (without his parents knowing of their extra house mate), while helping the young Demon to take his rightful place.

    Through the years, Melody (also known as the Venetti boy's Closet Demon), has met many noble families and has become quite known within the noble ranks. She often stands at Vincent’s side and continues to advise him on the political and family matters he has to deal with. Upon taking charge of the Venetti family, Vincent allowed Melody to have her own room and a place within the Venetti Manor; though, on the odd occasion, he still finds her sleeping in his new, bigger and more comfortable closet.

    Character no. 2







    Vincent Alexander Venetti

    Age:
    18

    Gender:
    Male

    Pure Demon

    Most Used Power:
    Vincent’s physical capabilities exceed that of an average Demon; he is faster, stronger and more agile than most – a feat he prides himself in. Vincent has mastered the element of Fire and is close to achieving Air; this has drawn him towards the power of darkness, a power which he is willing to accept with wide, open arms. This has allowed him to gain the power of manipulating and draining life-forces, also giving him power to manipulate the will of the dead; not yet allowing to raise the dead, however, manipulating a ghost or a ghoul to do his bidding; however, he has not quite mastered the technique, therefore, on the rare occasion, it has the potential to backfire on him.

    Personality:
    Vincent is a natural born leader, he knows how to intimidate, how to control and how to be in control. Although he doesn’t have a short fuse, his demeanour is that of pure evil; unlike his friend, Melody, he takes on the persona of a true Demon. He has little patience for those ranked below him; which to him is everyone, and he doesn’t take disrespect lightly. Callous to those who mean nothing to him (this again is everyone) he has no problem in disciplining where he sees fit.

    Biography:
    Being born into nobility justifies Vincent’s lack of patience and respect for those beneath him. From an early age Vincent was taught that being at the top was of the greatest importance. The moment he realized that he and his family, although noble, were not at the top his demeanour changed to a great degree. It is an expected stage of development for the eldest son of a demon family to seize charge as soon as possible. This for Vincent happened at quite an early age. His father though not pleased that his son now surpassed him permitted the change of leadership without question. Upon Vincent gaining authority of the Venetti family he also gained the attention of some of the higher ranked officials within the underworld. This pleased him and his family greatly and with Vincent in charge the Venetti family over the years has grown in power and status. Vincent’s reasoning for acceptance at the Academy of Vendace Halls is primarily due to the fact that he wishes to follow the family tradition and graduate like those before him.

    Character Number One



    Rosalina Bell Forveus

    Age:
    18

    Gender:
    Female

    Race:
    Pure Angel

    Most Used Power:
    Rosalina Bell outshines in the elements of air and water; this therefore draws her closer to the power of light. She shines by means of curative charms; healing powers. Her physical abilities betray her; in consequence she situates herself in the posterior end of a battle, casting curative charms on injured allies. With sensitivity to the power of the mind, Rosalina has begun to dabble in the art of illusions and other psychic abilities. This strength however does not excel her curative charms by any means; nevertheless she is a fast learner and appears to be developing swiftly with her mind capabilities.

    Personality:
    Due to Rosalina Bell’s pure and untainted temperament, she exists as sickly sweet. Her delicate, high voice doesn’t vocalize unless necessary. She ascertains that she is a female, the frail gender, and that her position in being is submission to a male in which case he will offer protection. Although Rosalina does not deem everyone to be of equal value she does not act in a way that is demeaning, even when she is being belittled. She identifies and has faith in her own significance, thus does not believe she has to debate it with those clearly beneath her. When engaging in a hostile encounter, Rosalina, akin to a true angel, will attempt to bring accordance before battle. Should she fail, one finds that she will merely evade attacks until her enemy enervates and she can simply walk away; though this has been proven complex at times due to her benevolent nature. Should the fight be of a more intense nature she will play with the elements of air or water, given that she is too feeble to brawl physically.

    Biography:
    Born into aristocracy Rosalina glistens with purity. Since she was infantile Rosalina was edified in the ways of primeval and rather chauvinist behaviour and ideologies. She has been educated in the original traditions of the angels, predominantly due to her father being an adjudicator of the high court. Rosalina’s chauvinist behaviour is also profoundly influenced due to the lack of her mother who was exiled for heresy by her own husband. High Judge Romiel, Rosalina’s father, was obligated to banish his wife due to her immersed involvement in one of the holy wars. High Judge Romiel forbid even the slightest chance that Rosalina would trail her mother’s footprints and thus as soon as he banished his wife he set about educating his daughter as traditionally as possible. Before she received her letter of acceptance from Head Master Socratic she was inculcated to study under strict conditions. Should she not be studying, then she was standing next to her father in assemblies of the angels.


    Character Number Two




    Christopher James Sayian

    Age:
    18

    Gender:
    Male

    Race:
    Born Pure Angel however currently on the verge of becoming a Fallen Angel.

    Most Used Power:
    Complimentary to Christopher his physical capabilities serve him well; agile, strong and swift. These qualities grant him pride within himself. Upon drawing himself closer to mastering the elements that are earth and water, he has acquired the power to manipulate electromagnetic radiation – that is to say, Christopher captures the waves of energy flowing around him and manipulates their forms (as such, radio waves, micro waves, infrared waves & x-rays). Should he bring this power into play, one cannot stress enough the danger that besieges it. If Christopher is not cautious enough he can drain himself of all his magical energy, which would result with him, unintentionally tapping into his individual life force and exhausting himself of that also.

    Personality:
    Christopher’s pride, one could say his self-importance, stems from his physical qualifications. That is not to say he isn’t with his allures; he’s charming and exceedingly charismatic. Eccentric is a word that best describes his ways. He doesn’t have a tendency to waste time on formalities and official procedures. Pride in himself and his race is evident and respect or reverence isn’t something Christopher possesses for those he knows not and sustains no problem in sharing his dogma. He has the drollness of a mordant cynic; he’s sarcastic. Christopher sustains a weakness for trouble and should he find none he will craft it himself. Not anything is of worry to him, negligent and blasé, he can bear a great deal before he snaps. Protective over those he acknowledges as friends (especially Rosalina Bell), and is quick to jump to their aid. Delving into the unholy practices of the angels is not infrequent of him and when one looks upon Christopher they may discover difficulty in deciphering whether or not he is a true angel.

    Biography:
    The head of the Sayian family, Christopher’s father, holds the position as General for one of the angel armies. Thus Christopher was trained from early years to be at a physical peak, in which he succeeded immensely. The success of his training brought with it the approval of his father and Christopher has grown to be the pride and joy of the Sayian family. In his father words, “Out of all of my sons, I have complete confidence that it will be Christopher who will lead the Sayian name into the highest of nobles.“ Taking into account the military background of his family, Christopher was taught respect and obedience for those who are higher than him. In addition, knowledge is of significance and he was trained to sit and learn. It was in his strict learning conditions that he met Rosalina Bell, an unusually pure angel with even more unusual primeval ideologies. He befriended the girl and has not been separated since.

    Nice, nice. Glad to see this up. Now originally I was planning on makin' a demon, but after reading your description of one I decided it wouldn't flow right with me. I'm interested 'bout shifters though. Anything special with their human forms? Do those forms take on any sort of influences based upon their base animal? Are they just normal human forms of which there is really nothing special about, besides the whole shifting into an animal part?

    Appy Polly Loggy's for not putting it in the description - in answer to your question, the animals that a shifter is capable of shifting into affects the type of powers that they would individually have, even in their human form. They would be in accordance to animal traits. Eg. If a person were a developed snake-shifter that individual would be able to extend their limbs and inject poison via a bite. Perhaps one finds that as a snake-shifter they may shed their skin and it could be a problem for them. That's just an example, it's really limited to your imagination, so long as it runs parallel to the chosen animal.

    Your heart beat when you first saw her...
    And knowingly, you fell for her.
    Until that day she broke your heart...
    And left you in the rain.
    And yet, still you love her.
