(To be majorly edited - I have a lot of things to add in here before I'm satisfied.)

"Why are you here? It's because you're unfortunate! Don't worry, this is a pretty nice place most of the time, and we take in all sorts of people. From misfortune-bound drifters to runaways and even just lost persons. I'm afraid that you won't be able to leave for the time being, though. I'm sorry!

For now, though, I suggest that you try to get a contract with the current owner of this place. He's right in the tent at the center. Meet him after the midnight performance, and I can guarantee you a good chance!

Good luck! Maybe we'll see each other again."


- From this interest check.




Many people often feel misunderstood. Even more so when you find yourself a bit...different from most humans. The world can be a cruel place to those that don't fit in quite right, and humans can often be crueler to those they don't fully understand. With a past and a fate like yours, it's no surprise that you may feel like so unfortunate...

...but then you find the carnival.

Unfortunate souls, sorrow no more! For this never-ending festival shall shelter you from your worries for the night. Or longer, should you wish. Here, if you happen to have enough luck for one night, you may make a contract with the owner and find refuge with the other misfits who can be found here. One way or another, you will also make it to this place. Your misfortune calls you to it, in an attempt to ease you troubles, perhaps.

Of course, every strange deal made with odd beings at a supernatural carnival usually has some kind of unexpected price. And this might be one that grants either the greatest fortune or misfortune of your young life.


Rules!
1. Please respect all rules, both the ones here and the ones for the Guild site.
2. If you feel that there are any errors or anything that needs consideration, feel free to discuss with me. I do have the final say, however.
3. Suggestions are appreciated, but please be respectful.
4. Please respect the GM, any possible Co-GMs, and the players. It's fine to have disagreements, but keep fighting to a minimum in the OOC.
5. Make sure your "spoken words" are visibly different from your unspoken ones, please. I would appreciate if people can actually tell what you're typing as well, but I won't go crazy over spelling.
6. Anything over PG-13 needs to go to the PMs!
7. Make sure whoever you are replying to has a way of knowing that you have replied (Mention, Quote, Specific Names...).
8. If I feel the need to add/change/get rid of rules, I will leave a message in the OOC prior to doing so.
9. DO NOT CONTROL CHARACTERS THAT YOU HAVE NOT CREATED YOURSELF. Specifically designated NPCs do not apply to this rule (I will let you know which ones they are). Collaborations are fine as long as both(or all) parties agree.

Yami, this RP looks great! I definitely think I'll join. Just a quick question, do you want us to post CSes now or wait until you're done and satisfied with OP? Also, what type of abilities are we allowed to have, generally speaking?

Hey! It's great to see you again! Sorry for the late reply, sleep and work kinda got the best of me for a bit.

As for those questions...I think it's fine for people to post their characters now. I do have a lot to change with the OP, but it's mostly formatting and images. Maybe some wording as well if I think of a better way to say any of this, but it should stay about the same information-wise.

For character abilities, I'd suggest going fairly simple on this one, or at least deceptively so. Although, I'm not going to be too picky, especially if you have a really interesting concept that you just have to try out.

I suppose the bottom line with powers is just that everyone should expect for them to have some form of negation at some point in the story. This is important for plot points, though; I promise it won't just happen without a reason. Otherwise, go crazy and I'll just let you know if it needs to be scaled back at all.

Hmm...I'm a bit on the fence, honestly...but considering the kind of environment everyone is going to be in and the fact that he's also a wolf, I'd say to go a little smaller. It doesn't have to be much; as long as it can fit inside an average-sized house, it's probably fine.

Of course sorry let me post it.

Capabilities
The user can utilize voodoo magic, ie. access supernatural forces to improve their daily lives to attain power or success ("luck") in many areas of life including money, love, divination, revenge, health, employment, and necromancy. As in many other spiritual and medical folk practices, extensive use is made of herbs, minerals, parts of animals' bodies, an individual's possessions and bodily fluids.

Like most Magic, Voodoo Magic has a variety of uses, the most known are Necromancy and using Voodoo dolls (an effigy of a person) for Motor-Skill Manipulation.

Voodoo magic practitioners like using sympathetic magic principles which has two aspects: Law of Similarity or "like affects like": model or miniature of a real-world object which affects the real-life counterpart when it is changed. For example, a miniature New York where you can move buildings and they'll move in the real New York. Or a globe (careful with it) if you poke it carelessly, you'll crush the entirety of China. Second is Law of Contact/Contagion: that things which have once been in contact with each other continue to act on each other at a distance after the physical contact has been severed. This latter makes someone who knows how to do it right truly dangerous because they can ignore any distance to hurt someone with only a bit of something they have used or (even better) part of them, hair and nail-clippings are traditional for this.

Applications
Animation
Biological Manipulation
Card Manipulation
Darkness Manipulation
Animated Shadow

Possession by allowing spirits posses the user or others.

Blessing Inducement

@~@ Ah...that's more of a track than I thought, actually.

For the sake of my sanity, can we not do all of them? It's okay if you have him still figuring out a bunch of them over time, I just don't want any Crash Kirby-type deals if that makes sense...

@Fenrir

That's perfect. You could actually go a little bigger if you wanted on that one, even, but that's a good size.

As for the dragon...if you can see it fitting inside a house without destroying the entire thing by just moving, you're good. It's just going to rough fitting some things over a certain size anywhere besides the tent and one other place I can currently think of is the main issue.

*frantically searches for ways to compare sizes to known objects*

Okay, I'm going to say just under three storeys is the limit for now. Anything taller is going to be really difficult for a couple of reasons.

Ability: Colette can has Mediumship, which allows her to see and communicate with the dead at ease. This includes asking for help.

Profile: A relatively friendly, shy and naive girl. She is an enigma by all means of the word and is a heavy believer in spiritualism, which is likely attributed by her ability to see and speak with the dead. She is a strong believer in angels, however, views herself as agnostic. A majority of her past is unknown, most likely due to unhappy or quite possibly, repressed memories (to be revealed in Roleplay).
