Setting information

This is a world based off of Old and New World of Darkness, but with more freedom to create your own supernatural race and none of the associated factions. This is so new players can get into it. We will move through different periods of time via Time Skips, going from Medieval to possibly Western to Modern.

This is a high casual RP, and all Supernatural Races are allowed except for Gods and Angels (you can be an offshoot of an Angel though, Angels and God in this world are too powerful). You are free to be as creative as you want to be when creating a Supernatural race, powers, faction, plot line, bloodline, OC etc.

Preface

Welcome to the Supernatural World, a world of intrigue, of feuding freaks and clans. The year is 1095, and the crusades have begun. Constantinople is a crucial point for the crusaders, as it is a major city in which to enter the Holy Lands. However, by night, the city is home to the evils that prey on mortals, battle with each other and manipulate humans. Vampires hunt in the city and Werecreatures hunt in the wilderness, Mages sit in their towers gathering power on astral winds, Demons and Fairy Changelings (Fairies in human form) hide within society, Wraiths haunt derelict buildings and the bodies of those unfortunate to be possessed by them. Many more supernatural horrors stalk the night such as the Gargoyles, Ghost Vampires of Asia and beast/animal spirits possessing man.

Vampire Clans, Bloodlines and Lore
(I'll only have the Vampire clans up right now, I'll work on others next)

Vampires were created when Caine struck down his brother Abel and God cursed him with Vampirism. Caine was so powerful, his power was superior to Angels and every other supernatural. Caine's descendants, the Antediluvian Vampires started clans with powers they specialized in that they were granted from Caine. Antediluvians are feared to return one day and cause Gehenna, the Vampire Apocalypse. There are also bloodlines, special deviations of clans (that players can create)

Vampires can get more powers by drinking the blood of other Vampires, but run the risk of forming blood bonds which enslave them to the other vampire. If they drink all of a vampires blood, they gain all their powers and take on a bit of their personality. Other beings than Vampires can also become immortal and gain enhanced strength and speed from drinking Vampire Blood.



Werecreature Tribes and Lore


Werecreatures are usually warriors who are locked in a two-front war against both the spiritual desolation of urban civilization and supernatural forces of corruption that seek to bring about the Apocalypse. They were created by Gaia, the Earth Mother to protect Nature from Supernatural forces. All Werecreatures have Gifts which are powers brought on by making pacts with Gaia which can range from anything to control of Elemental Forces to Enhanced Senses.





Mage Factions and Lore


Everyone has the capacity, at some level, to shape reality. This capacity, personified as a mysterious alter-ego called the Avatar, is dormant in most people, who are known as sleepers, whereas Magi (and/or their Avatars) are said to be Awakened. Because they're awakened, Magi can consciously effect changes to reality via willpower, beliefs, and specific magical techniques.

Mages are extremely powerful and have massive destructive capabilities, however their magic is unable to be seen by nonbelievers of magic and the supernatural. Using magic next to a person who does not believe in these things can cause damage to the mage in question, since all beings are capable of shaping reality. Their powers are known as Spheres.



Demon Houses and Lore


Demons are the fallen angels loyal to Lucifer in their war against God and his Angels, who have escaped from Hell and now live in on Earth. They take the form of Humans, Animals or Demonic forms, although demonic forms have susceptibility to being noticed by God and potentially sent back to Hell. Their powers are known as Lores and they can switch between a normal form and an incredibly powerful Demon Form.



Changeling Races and Lore


Changeling Children are fairy (Fae) children that were swapped for a regular human child. This child has access to something called Glamour that masks their special appearances to humanity, although it can be seen through with something like a Vampire's auspex or a Fae can give a human the ability to see through their glamour temporarily.

The Changelings have a court with representatives from each Changeling race that controls it. The court punishes wrongdoers and helps to ensure all Changeling have a Glamour. Some Changelings exhibit inhuman beauty, while others exhibit atavism; some are defined by a particular season, while others are defined by their approach to social interaction.



Wraith Lore and Powers


Wraiths are spirits who have recently died and are bound to earth by an object, place or person. They have the option of seeking their afterlife, whether it be Heaven or Hell.



Factions


Factions are created by the players and I. If you wish to create a Faction then post it in the OOC or in your character description and I'll add it.

@Grec
Could you add some spaces between your lore? I'm having a hard time reading the massive text blocks you have going on.

EDIT: Side note, are you cool with some of the fan made stuff like Leviathan or Genius? Just want to know before I get in too deep with the character creation process.
