Hunter Leader
Name: Philipp Orlano
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Weapons: Standard hunting rifle and silver dagger.
Bio: Philipp has been hunting for approximately 12 years now. He hardly tells anyone the reasons how he started out and he's only told several. The only detail that he ever lets out about it was that it was the day he found out how to kill a vampire. After that, he joined a hunting group with his brother and started his new life. Philipp learned a lot from that group and even created his own sketchbook on the various supernatural they hunted. He had actually enjoyed the new group he had been with for a while, but after an attack from several lycanthropes, Philipp lost his brother and several other friends. The remainder of the group separated, all going their own ways and not wanting to stay together for fear from remembering.
Personality: Random and witty when he's off work. Gets dark and unmerciful when he's hunting.
Other: I love it when fire melts ice.

Creature CS
Name: Hammond Strin
Nickname: N/A
Age (appearance/actual): 32/423
Gender: Male
Species: By definition a witch but he prefers to be called a trickster.
Weakness: Any splintered wood creates a severe injury and causes his blood to boil. A stab through the heart with it would kill him.
Powers: Able to create illusions which includes Glamour on other supernatural. Able to create time traps, loops, and aging. Can also create hexes to curse others.
Performing role/Primary Position: Glamour Controller
Secondary position (Optional): Stage Hand
History before circus: Hammond went on a lovely adventure in his life as soon as he mastered the arts he practiced. From placing petty humans in time traps, making others go mental, and seeing how quickly they could be driven insane, Hammond thought he had it all with his powers. His experience from hunters proved otherwise though. Hunters found out his usual spot he like to stay at and almost killed him, just several inches away from his heart. Hammond barely escaped, and has been trying to find a life without hunters.
History in circus (Unless just joining): Hammond became a way for supernatural who couldn't hide their identities to join the circus. With his spells in Glamour, he quickly became very useful in adding new additions. Hammond joined the circus just a year after it had begun, and decided to stay with it since it was a nice place to protect against hunters. He causes his own pranks several times, but he tries his best to obey the rules, and so far he hasn't killed anyone, which is always great progress!
Personality: Extremely wiry, hyper, and has a really sick sense of humor.

Powers: Other than normal vampiric powers, Nixon's able to teleport, or 'blink' as he calls it, up to 10 feet away from himself. He's able to go through walls and people, but using this ability too frequently (more than six times a day) puts a harsh drain on him. If there's any counter-magic going on while he's blinking, Nixon will never return from his blink.
Performing role/Primary Position: Magician
Secondary position (Optional):
History before circus: Nixon hasn't had the best life out of everyone. Born in the town of Salem several centuries ago, Nixon's led a twisted life after he realized his abilities and potential.

Other: I love melted ice.

Name: Eleana Oz
Nickname: Firefly. It wasn't Eleana's ideal stage name, but her first choice was too long in human English.
Age (appearance/actual): Appears to be 26. She didn't have a need to remember her true age, so she doesn't know it. When were those pyramids built again?
Gender: Female
Species Phoenix
weakness : Iron, it make her feel weak when she is exposed to it, and her healing slows when she is harmed by it. There is also a special colt rumor to kill phoenixes and other supernatural with only one shot, but Eleana has never seen this colt first hand.
Powers: to harness the fires of the sun and summon it, immortality. She has healing abilities, but a Phoenix can only heal those who they have bonded with. She also has flight, but only in her true form.
Performing role/Primary Position: Fire dancer ( breaths and performs with fire)
Secondary position (Optional): She designs and makes her own costumes. she will lend a hand with others, if they wish to owe her a favor.
History before circus: Eleana has little memory of her early incarnations, but they were memories of bliss and freedom. She didn't care enough to remember much of the humans either. The brief lives of these loud clumsy creatures did not interest Eleana in the slightest. She witnessed these mud creatures rise into stone empires and fall into obscurity before the sun finished her dance across the horizon. Eleana does remember being worshiped by the humans. An golden age when men and women adorn in gold and silk sing songs of her, prayed to her and carved her images in stone. Even the ones who worshiped a single God would stare in awe and admiration if Eleana graced them with her presence. Just as soon as this age began, it changed into something sinister. The songs and praises of Eleana and her kind no longer fell from human lips. Old gods fell away, and the creatures that once worshiped Eleana began to hunt her. Eleana herself went to great lengths to avoid the wars between man and the supernatural. She was also clever while in isolation, avoiding traps and outsmarting hunters armed with iron She eventually retreated to a land the humans would later refereed to as "Africa." The land was too dangerous for those hunters and the humans who did live in this land treated Eleana with respect. Her brother and sisters were not as lucky because by the end of the war, most of her kind had disappeared completely. To this day, Eleana does not know how the humans destroyed the immortal birds so easily, but the thought leaves her with an burning anger that will last longer than the sun herself.
History in circus: It is quite common for a phoenix to life in isolation. In fact, they become very territorial if too many are in the same habitat. Eleana took comfort in this solitary for many centuries. Sadly, those damn mud creatures began to consume the land. They began to explore and colonize, disturbing Eleana's isolation.News of her retaliation against the invaders spread far and wide. A golden red bird with wings of fire that burnt whole colones to the ground. Her actions caught the attention of many creatures and hunters alike. Luckily, before the hunters preyed on Eleana, she was approached by a creature who spoke of a heaven for mystical creatures. A "circus" ran by a child of blood and shadows somewhere in Europe. The year was 1907 when Eleana found the circus of the supernaturals. This circus has been her home since then.
Personality: Eleana is a very vain creature, though she is more proud of her true form than this flesh glamor she is force to wear. She is her happiest when she performs. The admiration and amazement that radiates from the mud creatures reminds Eleana of the days she was worshiped. Off the stage Eleana is resentful toward humans and takes pleasure in humiliating or belittling them. She does not think twice about preying on their emotions for her own amusement. Finally, Eleana is independent and will be quick to anger. She will become petty or even dangerous if she or her territory is threatened. What Eleana believes to be hers can range from a performance space, an object or even a living thing.
Likes/Dislikes: Eleana has a weakness for the arts, especially the music.if you want to win her favor, bring her something she hasn't heard before. While her greatest love is art, her biggest annoyance is being told what to do. No one, not the kings, emperors or even the silly christian pope has any authority over Eleana. If you want Eleana's cooperation, you will do well to not command it.
Appearance:

Other: Eleana has this habit of slipping her human glamor when Vladimir is not watching. She takes pleasure in lighting up the night sky with her brilliant glow and the feeling of the air under her wings is very nostalgic.

small note:
Eleana of course can be "killed" if she is fatally harmed, her body will burst into a explosive fire and she will emerge from her own ashes as a small child/chick. The growth cycle of a phoenix reborn however is only a matter of days.

Cool Beans. You're Accepted!

Bumping

Poke!

Name: Leander
Nickname: Zephyr the Wondrous
Age (appearance/actual): 20/499
Gender:Male
Species: Air Elemental
Weakness: Extreme phobia of tight spaces, vulnerable to injury in human form, prolonged transformation time.
Powers: Extreme Speed, flight, control of air and wind, invulnerable while in natural form, can change to human form and back at will.
Peforming role/Primary Postion: Lead Acrobat
Secondary position: Singer
History before circus: Leander was born from the chilling winds of the arctic as they met the warm winds of the pacific. He traveled the world for many years, taking in the beauty and life that he saw flourishing on land, and finally he grew so curious about these two legged beings that seemed to be the strangest creatures on the planet, that he taught himself to take human form and integrated himself into their culture during the Renaissance period. He met and befriended the famous poet, William Shakespeare, one of the only humans that he ever told about his real identity. Shakespeare used him as a partial inspiration for the play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream". He was completely unaware of the war between the humans and the supernatural creatures until he found himself facing hunters who had heard of his friendship with Shakespeare. While Leander was able to give them the slip, the hunters poisoned Shakespeare with a slow and secret poison that would take a month to kill him. After Shakespeare's death, Leander was overcome with grief and carved the famous epitaph on his tomb before leaving England forever. He then took an active role in the war against the hunters, using his abilities to steal their life breath. However, by that point it was too late and the war was lost soon thereafter. Leander went into hiding, both from the grief of his experiences of death and shame that he had let himself kill so many. He resurfaced in 1888, joining the newly formed Circus and vowing to never again use his abilities to take human life.
History in circus (Unless just joining): Leander was one of the first recruits to the Circus, using his skills in manipulating air currents to cast himself in the role of a wonderfully talented high flying acrobat. He is known for his "death defying" leaps, tricks and tumbles through the air, his skills at the trapeze and high wire, and his staunch refusal to use a safety net. He has also taken a particular shine to Eleana, since she arrived only a few years after himself. He often finds himself in awe of her grace and beauty, though he thinks of her as a good friend and confidant. He enjoys singing for her, since he knows she is a fan of music, and it led him to also become the troupe's primary vocalist.
Personality: He can be a bit mischievous, often playing tricks on other members of the troupe, but they are always in good fun. He is kind and caring, rather likely to help others if he believes he can. He does not let anything bother him(except tight spaces) and has a generally sunny outlook. He has never been seen to be sad or angry, at least not yet. He finds himself at peace with the world, content to live the life he has made for himself without worrying about tomorrow. He does know when to be serious, though even then he tends to be overly optimistic, and even naive. He is not, however, inexperienced in the horrors of humans, and while he is always polite and courteous to the audience, he generally disassociates with humans, preferring the company of other supernatural creatures and beings.
Likes/Dislikes: Leander loves the simple pleasures in life. He likes to entertain others, as well as to be entertained himself. He has a great appreciation for beauty of all kinds and he finds himself feeling sorry for anyone or anything that is not beautiful, which can sometimes earn him the ire of others. He also highly values freedom and independence, refusing to let himself be "stifled" in any way. He is deathly afraid of small spaces, and will refuse to enter them under any circumstances less than a life or death situation. This is because his powers are virtually useless in tight spaces and he feels choked, often even beginning to breathe hard and finally passing out if he spends too much time in small spaces.
Appearance:
Other: Leander stopped aging physically after he turned 20. He has no idea why, but he rather likes how he looks. He believes himself to be immortal, as long as he is not killed in his human form. He has a distinct lack of body/facial hair, excepting his head hair and eyebrows. Oh, and........ I Love Ice. It's yummy in lemonade. ^_^ Lol

Cool beans. You're in.

So, I just had a thought. How is the circus traveling? Is it by train or caravan? Also, what are the living quarters like for the performers?

By Caravan. They stay 2-3 weeks in each town/city ect... so due to the short time, they're staying in either tents or in a wagon depending on how long they've been with the circus. The nicer wagons belong to the creatures who've been there the longest.

Ok, cool. So ready to start.

Just need 2-3 more people before starting.

if lack of characters become a issue, would it help if we double up on characters?

I'm thinking of joining ^.^ I think it might take me a while to get my character up though. Is being a reaper as my species acceptable?

I'd be very interested! Give me a few and I'll have an CS up!

Facelessrecon, your signature just made me emotional.

Name: Alvira Royston
Nickname: Shinigami, or 'Shi' meaning Death or Spirit.
Age: appearance: 19
Actual: 109
Gender: Female
Species: Reaper
Weakness: Does not deal with any magical force well when used against her, can be killed with one strike from the death scythe or energy can be drained with a sharp blade until she retrieves another soul.
Powers: Can have access to Heaven and Hell, experts and tracking down bad or 'rotten' souls. Can alter the way humans see the Reaper.
Performing role/Primary Position: Trainer
Secondary position (Optional): Acrobat
History before circus: Alvira has seen any type of death you can imagine, she's was a lonely dark soul who roamed the earth and took other people's lives to save her own. But now with all the deaths in the world, she doesn't need to do the dirty work. Not anymore.
She wasn't always visible to humans, she thought it would only cause unnecessary troubles for her, she would get people begging for their lives which were already drifting away from them. She didn't hate that life, she quite enjoyed it actually. It gave her a taste of all of the different opportunities, all the experiences that people endure in life. Of course, the job didn't give her happiness either, whenever she would take a soul she would have to take the burdens and emotions on too, quite problematic. She was never free and never will be. She understands that. Being a Reaper has it's consequences.

At least she was never hunted down, yes hated by many, but she could never be hunted down. She's like a possession of death, you can't take her to her death if she's already possessed by it. She never tries to go into great detail about it, she gets confused herself but she just goes along with it. She's always been with death, and always will be.
History in circus (Unless just joining): Alvira hasn't been at the circus long enough to brag about but long enough to have earnt a reputation. She never mixed with people unless it's about something worthy of her time and she always practiced numerous acts which gave her great inner peace with herself, until she feels her power draining. Then she'd become isolated and nobody would see her for hours. When she returned she would be reasonably approachable, not that people approach her anyway.
Personality: She has character, whether that's a good thing or not, well, that's for you to decide. She never in a good mood, only a reasonable mood at the rarest of times. But what else can you expect from a reaper? Alvira loves to watch people suffer, she find some kind of amusement out of it but she won't have the fire inside of her to fight anybody, after all, she's pretty much dead inside. But there is some kind of aura that tells people to back off from her,she actually quite likes the isolation. She can feel at some kind of peace.

Other: I love ice, nom nom nom nom nom

Welcome!! I'll add you to the OP later!

Hehe! Yay! :D

What would the role of "Magic Mirror" entail?
