Sex:
Spices: succubus
Appearance:


Personality: A flirt, Damien has been known to toy with those around him. Playing mind games while trying and succeeding at manipulation. Though he would protect a true friend with his life, you would be hard pressed to be his actual friend. He sees most people as games, things to spare his boredom for a short time.

Occupation:
Male stripper
(I'm not joking)

Occupation based on beast:
When dealing with the souls of the abandoned and stressed, their are many creatures who will come to him for a bit of poison. Not enough to kill, but a high from a succubus’s venom can keep even the worst thoughts away for a short time.

Strengths: Manipulation, acting, good in blending in with humans and can use poison discreetly.

Weakness: Is not good with children, is not trained in combat, hates almost all form of insects and can sometimes be seen as a drama king or queen when pushed.

History:

Damien, once under the name Xenfia was born under the command of her mother till she had gained her poison. Before always put under a strict ruler and harsh words, Xenfia was quick to branch out to others of her own kind the moment she was given her freedom. Learning how there were underground bars that allowed people like her to shift freely and have a drink. Soaking up gossip and planning their next move to cause trouble.

She loved the hidden secrets, the ideas that humans were just above her head. But she began to grow curious about the fragile little things that lived a second to her. When she was still only a teenager she was given the guise of a human, yet she hated the female form, the compressed wings and dainty appearance. She wanted to be daring, to spice things up and change the rules. And so, while her peer's backs were turns, she gained a male face, a deep voice and a new name.

Life became far easier when he decided to live above ground. Humans sexulized their bodies so much while he cared so little. finding out that learning how to dance, and having a good face and body was all you need to be able to live without worry. Money no longer a issue after he became a male stripper, he gained himself a nice flat, a few humans that could call him friend, and endless amount of fun and games that he could toy with whenever he would be near anyone that was intimidated.

He still came back home every once in a while, his own kind not as fond of him as they once were, sneering and hissing, he would let it roll over his back and continue on. Enjoying his freedom as he began to work with other creatures that learned to live next to humans and in a way learn to enjoy it.

Name: Mallory Grimoire
Age: 19
Sex: Female
Spices: Kumakatok. The Kumakatok were omens of death in the Philippines, and they would knock on the doors of those fated to die. There are three of them, two old men, and one young girl — Mallory happens to be that young girl.
Appearance:


Personality: A strong and confident young woman, she’s determined to make her way in the world. Witty and ambitious, she is very calm and decisive, but with a dark sense of humor. She does, however, have a guilty pleasure in gossiping and hearing secrets not meant for her.

Abilities/skills:
She has the ability to postpone death for up to thirty seconds for another individual, can limit interaction with physical objects when in true form, senses who is near to death, able to mimic the powers of a ghost (mild telekinesis). She can “read souls” so basically, she can know if someone has sold their soul and where they’re likely to end up.

Occupation: She’s a receptionist at a chiropractor, as student loans are still a burden.

Occupation based on beast: Since she’s a door knocker, some of the various gangs will ask for her to go and inform people that death is imminent. She basically is the person who sends out the warning messages for the beast mafia.

Strengths:
Intelligent, light on her feet, can quote Oscar Wilde, able to discern the truth quickly, calm, decisive, and relentless.

Weakness:
Iron and salt will have her be down for the count. In her true form, if someone removes her hood, she is basically rendered useless and will be no more useful than a vegetable for ages. If she gets too emotional, her powers will go out of control in a hilarious meltdown. And finally, each town she goes to, if someone is near death, she MUST go knock on their door, or she’ll get extremely weak. Her sense of humor can be off putting as well at times.

History:
Her mother married Mallory’s father when he was rather old, and never caught on that he wasn’t who he seemed. Once she had Mallory and saw the thing she gave birth to, she screamed in fear and terror, looking at the form of a Kumakatok underneath the cloak. Luckily for Mallory and her father (or perhaps unluckily?), her mother quickly died in childbirth, right after Mallory’s father began knocking.
Since then, she was raised by her father and her uncle, other Kamakatoks. They traveled the world, with Mallory being raised in Egypt for the majority of her teenage years, as her father and uncle worked on an archaeological dig, attempting to learn more about their own kind. Her childhood years were fairly uneventful, except for on one occasion where she was lost inside of a crypt, and had to turn into her true form in order to merely glide through the walls to find her way out. The other archaeologists in the team regarded Mallory as family, and ended up raising enough money to send her to NYU. Living in New York by herself, Mallory has a small apartment and rooms with a human girl named Eleanor. The two of them are mildly close, as both of them study at NYU. Just like her father and uncle, Mallory is hoping to become an archaeologist —and perhaps move to a town where she doesn’t spend her entire evenings knocking on doors to warn people of impending death. It makes her a bit tired in the morning, and cranky, of course. Given that money doesn’t go too far for a school like NYU, she took up a job as a receptionist, watching people trot inside to receive a back adjustment each day. She hardly cares about her work, and spends most of her time reading about dig sites. Her job for the “beast mafia”brings in some extra cash as well, causing her to be expected to graduate debt free.

Name: Thalia Maheras
Age: 21 (in reality it is 80)
Sex: Female
Spices: Time Dragon
Appearance:



Personality: Has an attitude, and is a rebel, thinks she is better than everyone else. Loves money.

Abilities/skills: While in her true form, her body and age are constantly shifting between past, present and future, changing what abilities she has, she has two different breath weapons, one that shoots out energy, the other can age people a few years. She also can fly and can use her claws, tail, and teeth as weapons. While in her human form, she is amazing at making alcoholic beverages, she can also go into a sort of Hybrid form in which she has access to both her breath weapons and causes her to sprout her wings out to fly.

Occupation: Bartender

Occupation based on beast: Protector, a lot of people have called upon her to protect their homes and treasure, she only asks for the amount of money that her clients can pay.

Strengths: She has really tough skin that is hard to penetrate.

Weakness: She is a hot head. If you get her angry, she won’t think about what she is doing and charge straight in. Extreme cold is also strong against her while she is in both forms, anything below 0 degrees F. She is weaker when she is on the ground instead of in the air. Her constant temporal shifting is also a hit or miss on whether it is a strength or weakness.

History:
When she was a young dragon, she lived with her parents. They were protectors of history, and wouldn’t let anything change that. While she was growing up, Thalia always wondered what was so important about history, why did it need to never change. At the age of 40, she jumped into the time stream, and explored the human realm. She was drawn to it, and her father went after her, trying to bring her home. They spent the next 30 years running around the planet. Her mother joined in, but Thalia argued with them about going home. She told them that if she was going to help protect history one day, she had to learn about the humans, and maybe live among them. Her father could see that she was no longer the young juvenile who had left their home 3 decades before. Her mother was outraged; she wanted her daughter home, now. Thalia was about to take off again, when her father stepped in. He had never stood up to her mother before, but he pointed out her logic and reasoning. All time dragons went to the human realm at some point in their life to observe them, Tempus wasn’t a wyrmiling anymore, and she had to make her own choices. Her mother thought, and eventually agreed to it. Thalia has been living with the humans (and not being chased by angry dragons) for 10 years now. She has never stayed in the same place for very long, otherwise people would question why she never seemed to grow older. She has come to care a little about the humans, and still wonders how they seem to have avoided destruction for so long.

Name: Victoria Dayed
Age: 25(ish)
Sex: Female (she/her)
Spices: Vampire
Appearance: (no art bc i suck at art) Pale skin (not white, but pale), dark hair, dark eyes, short (maybe 5'2"), very small person in general. Hair is long and tends to cover her face. She dresses in dark neutral tones (like black and purple and blue and grey).

Personality: Quiet and observant. Doesn't have many friends irl but is very friendly online. Is an alcoholic because it's the closest thing to blood she can get easily.

Abilities/skills: Can see in the dark and can usually sense living things in the nearby area. Doesn't need more than half an hour of sleep a day.

Occupation: Currently in med school, works part time at the university to help pay for school.

Occupation based on beast: Is supposed to be helping gather victims for the nest, but gets away with not having to deal with that by promising she'll steal blood and bodies for them once she becomes a surgeon (she has no plans to help them in the future).

Strengths: Very book smart (she made it to med school). Not so great with English and history but amazing with numbers and science.

Weakness: Very bad with people and can't spend very long in direct sunlight without blistering. Constantly just a little drunk and can't drive.

History:
She was a normal kid growing up in northern New York until she was bitten at the age of 14. She was walking home from school one night when a group of guys started following her. At the time, she was very outgoing so she struck up a conversation. Eventually they got her to come back towards the nest. They brought her inside and bit her, turning her within the hour. They told her she could go home but not to tell her parents what happened and to come right back before sunrise. She stumbled home. As soon as she say her parents her head started pounding and she ran up to her room. When she turned out the lights to try to sleep, she found she couldn't and she could see everything. It was a horrible, sleepless night.
The next morning she went back to the nest and demanded to know what happened and they told her. She was now a vampire. The pounding in her head was from the blood in her parent's bodies and "it will go away eventually." They also gave her a list of things she needs to do: 1. cut all ties with your family. "we're your family now." 2. catch victims. "we all need to eat." and 3. try to work your way up to alpha female. "the old alpha's getting tired and needs a replacement. it'd look good for this small town nest to have caught the alpha."
so she did. She caught victims with her charisma. She started avoiding her old friends and parents. The day after graduation she moved to NYC for college and never looked back. Soon she was so good at what she did the old alpha wanted her as her successor. In an epic fight vampires everywhere still talk about now (five years later), Victoria told the alpha she could take the position and stick it up her butt. She was shunned for about a year, the time during which she turned 21 and discovered alcohol.
Now, she's still associated with the NYC vampires and could have the alpha position if she wants it but she really doesn't. In the last ten years she's become quieter and can now manage her symptoms with ease.
