Information:
+Anima are humans who possess animal like abilities, or (in extreme cases), the ability to transform into a full anthro-animal form. Each +Anima has a symbol or birthmark-like etching on their bodies, indicating and relating to what Anima-Spirit lives within them.

There is one recorded case of a person being born as +Anima, because the conditions for such an event are exceedingly rare. (as such only one of this type of anima will exist in the thread) An Anima is absorbed through the sheer will and need to survive. The two common conditions for absorption of an Anima are:
-The person is usually between the ages of about 10-18. (usually but not always)
-They are having a near-death experience

Some +Anima are genetically created, as an Anima can be obtained through implantation surgery, the process can be unstable. Vice versa, an Anima can be extracted through surgery, in which the marking is removed and the animal-spirit contained. At the age of maturity, or when they no longer need the Anima, +Anima tend to lose their Anima and become human again, though some adults retain it through puberty, or throughout their entire lives, depending on the circumstances.

+Anima are seen as less than humans and are kept and sold as slaves very commonly. However, there are some free +Anima in the world. These Anima normally keep their markings hidden because it is a sign of being an outcast. (and it may or may not get them killed/enslaved/etc)

Rules:
1. You may only chose ONE animal for your character to have.. and those animals may NOT include any mythological creatures (that includes dragons, unicorns, gryphons, etc)
2. This will be an active RP, so you may get left behind if you do not post once every day.
3. i will only be accepting one of each type of animal (i dont want six wolves and nothing else, be creative people)
4. Romance/Love interests allowed, but must feel natural. Also, nothing too intense... no sex scenes please.. just fade to black if you feel this is so necessary..
5. Characters will be accepted by me according to quality.
6. This Rp will have some mature and darker undertones, as a warning.
7. This Rp takes place in the past, around the time where cars were only owned by extremely rich people.
8. No god modding please. its a huge pet peeve of mine.
9. I am allowing one anima who has an extinct animal to join the Rp. (this means anything from the dinosaur family, and any animals who existed during the ice age.) However, they must provide a detailed explanation of how their character received their anima (it can't be just randomly received.) I will also highly regulate this character so they aren't overpowered compared to the others.
10. Please write at least one paragraph for your character's bio and try to make it diverse from the other characters.

@Draconequis I'm reading the manga right now. However I am curious about one thing: would extinct animals (ie dinosaurs, mammoths, sabre-tooth cats) be lumped in with mythological animals?

@Otaku95

AHhh.. you made me think for a long time on whether i should allow this or not. I've decided that its such a good idea, i will allow ONE character to be created from extinct creatures. However, the person who applies MUST provide a valid reason how their character received said anima.

I am going to have to regulate this idea very closely though. I don't want any dinosaur that is too big, (imagine a Titanosaur, a fully grown man doesn't even reach their knee.) I will add this to the rules.

@Otaku95
wow, that is a cute little snake. Alright, i put it under reserved characters. Look forward to seeing your application. If you think you know anyone else who might be interested, send them this way. I was hoping to have more people interacting. I want to start at a minimum of four.

Name: Drake
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance: In normal human form Drake stands at just under five and a half feet, with black hair and eyes. His complexion is pale, but never seems to burn or tan. His teeth are alightly pointed. When his +Anima is activated, his lower body transforms into that of a dragon snake, including his lower belly, and scales up his back.
Anima: Dragon snake
Marking: Scale-like markings on his back, legs, and stomach.
Abilities: Heat-detecting, enhanced agility, can unhinge his lower jaw to a degree
Personality: Drake is usually the quiet type, preferring solitude or small groups to crowds. He has a love of music and reading, and dreams of being an author. He has an active imagination, but is prone to worrying about people he cares about. It takes some time for him to warm up to others, but his loyalty is near-absolute. Drake absolutely detests the cold, and, deep down, is afraid of hurting others.
History: Drake was born the youngest child to a small-town family. His mother and sister were good people, but his father was an abusive drunk. When he was eleven, the three of them tried to escape. However his father attacked them, separating Drake from his mother and sister. Being singled out Drake's father caught him and attempted to strangle him to death. In that moment Drake became a +Anima, and constricted his father to death. Rattled by the event he ran away from his family, afraid they would see him as a monster.

(If theres too many females I'll see if you think her brother should be here.)

Name:Dolina
Age:15
Gender:Female
Appearance:


Anima: Northern Ghost Bat


Marking:
On her wrist

Abilities: Far more energetic at night. Amazing hearing, if she tries enough sometimes she can startle and cause slight confusion when screeching.

Personality: A quiet little thing due to the fact that her voice squeaks on some words. Embarrassed easily her talents shines through when shes scouting. A mischievous little shit when shes in the company of those she trusts.

History: Dolina was raised to be turned into an Anima. Thrown into a pit with a grab bag of beasts the group she belonged to would wait till she no longer screamed to retrieve her mangled form. Because of this shes covered in scars that she covers up. The reason behind this? Breed Anima to be later on sold as slaves.
Yet Dolina was lucky, she was found to have become a bat. What good was a bat? They were not considered beautiful, the pleasure houses would not have her, the coliseum would not take her tiny shape. She was not good for hard labor, she was too beaten to be used for pleasure yet her doll like appearance made her ill-suited for being a maid in someone's home.
Yet that is what made her lucky. She was about to be sold of parts when a hunting party wanted her. Claiming that a companion that could find a kill in the dark would be just what they needed. Far better trained than a hound as well. And so, worth only a few silver coins Dolina was taken to the hunting guild.
Life was not easy there at first. The hunters would not have her eat for free and so she had to learn and learn fast. She had to run farther than her little lungs ever taken, she had to strike the training posts till her hands were broken twings. Her tears had to be shed in silence and she learned to live in the cold for months on end on a hunt. Starving, shivering and alone.

Yet after a few years, tiny 10 year old Dolina found a break. A hunter came to the guild as an Anima himself. A tank of a man with a bald Eagle Anima named Jath. Finding out how the guild treated the girl like a common hunting hound he was quick to gain a soft spot for her. Sharing food and bringing her inside when it was cold to eventually just having her stay in his room with him. The guild laughing at the big softy he simply said he reminded her of his little sister, something Dolina found that he was lying about.
At age 15 and not complaining about the tough love given to her. Dolina is now seen as a member of the guild thanks to Jath. A fate that she would glady take over what she has seen become of her fellow specially made slaves.

@Otaku95

Everything is looking good, but could you add to his history if you can? He seems to have a very similar history to Nia (the octopus girl) maybe if you put something in about where he is now.. maybe a bit more about his family life in order to make the stories a bit more differing. (i am aware multiple people are abused by their parents, but the idea that he killed his abusive father is very similar to what happened to Nia) I would really prefer if each character sort of had a more unique history. Feel free to PM or mention me as soon as you finish.
