So here's my attempt on a werewolf.William Harold Maervsky
{ "I'll help whoever I want to okay? No one deserves to be alone - not a werewolf, a witch, a vampire or a hunter." }
| {Full Name} |William Harold Maervsky
| {Nickname} |Will to basically everyone
| {Date of Birth} |10/23
| {Age} |20
| {Gender} |Male
| {Sexuality} |Asexual though not really opposed to romance
| {Relationship Status} |Single
| {Role} |Werewolf
| {Occupation} |Works at the local butcher shop
| {Face Claim} |Andrew Garfield
| {Dialogue Color} |[color=gray][/color]
| {Appearance} |William looks rather young, thanks to his constant smiling and the bright glint in his gray eyes. He stands at a height of 5'10, which is rather average for someone of his age, and weighs averagely, if not only a little more thanks to his activeness and muscles beginning to form instead of fat. He isn't bulky though, instead being somehow athletic and unassuming. This is especially true because of how he hides most of his body under his clothing. He has light brown hair which is rather unruly but he tries his best to make it as presentable as possible, though he may choose to wear a beanie just in case he feels cold.
William doesn't have many scars, but the ones he does have is rather nasty. With previous encounters with much more aggressive werewolves, he has retained three long claw marks on his back and two more on his front, going along diagonally. He has a couple of nicks found on his arms but he makes sure to cover it up with his clothing. He has a small scratch mark near his chin, though barely anyone notices it and he likes it that way. He doesn't like talking about them after all.
In terms of clothing, William wears anything that can cover him up well and still looks comfortable. These, more often than not, include simple shirts and jackets and some cargo pants. While he is a werewolf whose body temp is higher than normal, he still likes to wrap himself up. No one is sure if he actually feels uncomfortable under this since he actually wears them to cover up nasty scars that he doesn't like explaining to anyone, but he does seem to like wearing them even without its practicality. He typically wears a magical necklace during the days leading up to the full moon.
| {Habits & Quirks} |He bites his cheeks whenever he gets embarrassed, or maybe even scratches it in other circumstances.
He's rather restless, so one can almost always see him tapping his foot or finger.
He hums to himself whenever he does something. Most often, he would heard humming a lullaby. Where he learnt it from is a mystery, since his mother never sang him one. Or at least, not that one.
He mumbles to himself frequently. It's often done so he can remember something he has to do. Though sometimes he just thinks out loud.
| {Hobbies} |He tends to find himself outside of town and just walking around - whether in human or wolf form, but never in partial form as that may lead to some unfortunate circumstances when someone sees him.
He plays the guitar and sings every now and then. Usually, he does it when in the presence of children but he can be found simply doing it by himself in the park.
He collects bugs. If one were to go to his house, one would see his many tanks of bugs littered around it. Because he lives alone, he's able to decorate it however he pleases.
| {Likes} |- Bugs (and to some extent, animals)
- Having fun
- Singing
- Playing the guitar
- Helping others
- Fruit juices
- Calmly walking around as a wolf
- He likes interacting with people from all walks of life. He's rather interested in how they live their lives as opposed to him. This occasionally leads him to have friends, and as well as suspicious folk.
| {Dislikes} |- Thunderstorms
- Loud music
- Aggressive hunters
- Rabid werewolves
- Bloodthirsty vampires
- Witches who don't abide by the rules
- Guns
- Loud noises
- People who simply hunt for fun and without rhyme or reason aside from them wanting to do it because it is 'fun'. This especially applies to hunters who simply see them as things to be hunted down instead of actual beings.
| {Fears} |For no rhyme or reason, he has an intense fear of heights. While he can get over it by simply looking ahead and attempting not to look down, it still makes him move rather slow. This can lead him to some unsavory circumstances.
Understandably, he's scared of silver. From silverware to silver objects, he's deathly afraid of it. While he can tolerate being around it, he gets nervous around them. He often chalks it up to having been cut by silverware before that causes him to stay away from anything silver. He claims it to be a 'childhood fear'.
He's scared of hurting someone when in his wolf form, especially if it's in the full moon. He never wishes anyone to be harmed, aside from those who truly deserve it. While he doesn't lose control too much under the influence of the full moon thanks to the special necklace a witch made for him, but he still fears that something wrong might happen and he accidentally harms someone else.
| {Secrets} |William knows what had happened to his parents, and that he was completely at fault for their deaths. He only acts that he doesn't know because he feels guilty about it. If not for his utter stupidity before, his parents wouldn't have been dead right now.
He secretly transforms himself and hides around different parts of the town, often seen within the thick mini-forests just in case there is a human who finds themselves lost. He guides them back to the town and then retreats before a hunter could see him. Though he does seem to do well in acting like a normal wolf.
| {Abilities} |Like any other werewolf, he has enhanced strength, speed, regeneration and senses.
He has ridiculously good sense of hearing and smell. Because of his better senses, he is able to eavesdrop rather easily and track someone down. Even William isn't sure why he has better sense of hearing and smell, but he tries to use it to his full advantage.
While his transformations take a while, he does have the ability to shift into partial werewolf form. Though this may be because he transforms much more frequently than most.
Oddly, he knows how to handle a bow well. When he doesn't hunt in his wolf form, he usually takes a bow and arrow - preferring them to their louder versions, guns.
| {Limitations} |He's much more affected by sensory overload than other werewolves. While he is training to block sound off, he's having trouble when it comes to his smelling. While he enjoys interacting with people, he hates going to overcrowded areas since he hears more than he wants - and it just makes him lose concentration. Don't get me started on guns...
He's still rather young, and therefore a lot more inexperienced than others. This may lead to him now knowing what to do at times, or even making wrong decisions.
He needs to transform more often than others - already feeling uncomfortable after three days of not transforming. No one is sure why this happens, but it does and he tends to succumb to transforming.
| {Personality} |♦ Cheerful ♦ Trusting ♦ Compassionate ♦ Stubborn ♦William had always been a friendly person, ever since she was a child. It doesn't matter if you're a stranger or a close friend, his approach doesn't change. With a smile on his face, he greets anyone and is willing to talk to anyone who needs it. He's very emphatic which leads to him always trying to help others - and his sensitive hearing often helps him spot who's having trouble and tries his best to cheer them up. However, he does know when he has pushed it and a person is uncomfortable, at those times, he simply bids farewell, offer them a smile and his help if they ever need it, and then walk away.
He tends to trust people way too easily. Whether it be a hunter or a supernatural, he's more than willing to be their friends even with the repercussions when they figure out who he is. He wants to give everyone a chance because, after all, they're all just living beings in the same world who can communicate so why should they keep on fighting each other? Of course, he does know that he has to keep him being a werewolf a secret, since it would be detrimental to his relationships with others and may even lead to his untimely death. Because he tends of giving second chances, it may prove to be a liability especially when someone is taking advantage of him as he becomes adamant that they're actually trying to do good, even if they're only using him.
For someone of his age and his course of life, he still manages to smile through everything and remain optimistic. Though he's much more of an idealist, he knows that not everything would end up well and knows when he has to fight back. Especially when it comes to those supernaturals who break the rules that have been laid out to them, he will fight them if need be. They don't help when it comes to his goal of having humans and supernaturals co-exist. Many have called him delusional for thinking that such an idea could work, but he doesn't listen to them. He wants to make the world a better place - is it so bad to think about it like that?
| {Place of Origin} |Born and raised in Salem, Massachusetts
| {Background} |Born to the werewolf Bill Maervsky and the human Tavia Maervsky, William had a relatively well off life. By some miracle or just them being pure lucky, Tavia and William survived the birthing process and Bill considering all of them to be blessed. To have such a successful birth was rare among the species, and Bill was aware of that. He had secretly wished that his son wouldn't be a werewolf, but alas, he was. He felt even more thankful that both of them had survived, since it has been widely known that they were even more harder to conceive than normal human children. Bill and Tavia made their best attempts for William to have a normal childhood, and it paid off. William had grown to be a friendly, cheerful and helpful child.
In terms of his transformations, Bill thought of no reason why he can't practice in it. While they requested a witch friend to make a special necklace for William when the full moon rolls around, Bill had to teach him how to transform properly when not under the influence of the full moon. The Maervsky household had a basement where they could practice their transformations and where they could transform safely. The walls were sound proof so no one could hear their howls. They had built a separating wall for Bill and William, and Tavia would rest easy at the house above - knowing that the two most important people in her life would be safe from the hunters.
William's odd ability of being more sensitive than others had come up when he was rather young, and thus, he was prone to tantrums. Though it wasn't enough to drive him to transform to a wolf, it was still enough for him to suddenly harm someone around him. Thankfully, it never happens around other children, but rather other werewolves so no one really said a word about it. When the pack finally figured out why William was having tantrums, they quickly tried to train him to control himself better. He managed to control his emotions of fury, but William consistently avoids any places with a large concentration of people - or areas with loud equipment. It's why construction never bodes well for him and he loses sleep over it.
Meanwhile, he does have a good relationship with the other children. He has a lot of stamina thanks to his wolf blood and thus can play a lot more. He talks and plays with almost any children and his friendly personality earned him many friends - and has even been known to talk frequently with shy people in classes. He knows how to approach them properly and to not intimidate them with his energy. He mellows down for them and this causes them to open up to him a bit more.
The Maervsky family had always been under the radar when it came to hunters, so they had no special worry in that regard. However, when it came to other supernaturals, they were well-known for their willingness to step up to anyone who dares disrupt the peace of Salem. William was unaware of this and by the age of ten, he had befriended a rather nasty werewolf. The werewolf was trying to lure him in and turn him against the pack, and William was none the wiser. If not for this encounter, none of the tragedies in his life would have ever happened. Had he not been foolish enough to not see the wickedness in the werewolf, nothing would have ever changed. But alas, William was young and foolish and things must happen for him to learn.
William was led to believe that at the night of the full moon, something special would happen. He foolishly wondered what it was and escaped his house during the night of the full moon, only before the sun would set. Bill and Tavia panicked when they couldn't find their child and Bill tracked him down to a nearby forest. That was when they all transformed painfully under the full moon while Tavia watched in panic. Bill, having forgotten his necklace at home, began to violently attack anyone in sight - the first one being his wife. He then engaged battle with the other werewolf. William, frightened, hid behind one of the bushes and watched as the two wolves tore each other apart. Suddenly, hunters came around and put an end to the battle. William spent the night, alone, shivering and regretting everything. That was the day William Harold Maervsky was orphaned.
He came back to his home three days later, starving and tired. He had spent the past three days in his wolf form, roaming around the forest. He cried and fainted soon after. He woke up and then promptly began feeling like himself again. When other packmates had found him in his house, he was then asked what had happened to his parents since Tavia Maervsky had been found dead and was buried while Bill was nowhere to be found - assumed to have been eaten by the werewolves who were fighting. William lied about it and told them that he didn't know, and faked being confused. His mind barred the memories and instinctively told everyone a lie - hoping that if he lied enough, he would soon convince himself that it wasn't his fault. That he wasn't the cause of his parents dying. That he wasn't the cause of them running out that night. That he wasn't the cause of them wondering where he was.
Feeling pity for the young werewolf, one of his packmates - Volber Vulric, owner of the local butcher shop, took him and made him work there to earn some food to live. He had been offered sympathy and was able to continue all the way to high school thanks to the kindness of everyone he had met. This led him to believe that he could still trust others. That not everyone was bad. He slowly became happier and happier until where he was today. However, what also remained was a searing hatred for any of the supernaturals who stepped out of line - who decided that ruining the peace in their community was the right thing to do. He trained himself so that he would be able to fight them off. He trained tirelessly so that he could transform partially and willingly used his better heightened senses to track down those who wronged the community. This led him to many encounters and fights. He earned many scars because of them, those he hid from his friends.
There had been once incident that the pack was fighting with two rogue wolves who were more skilled in fighting than they were. William had been part of the attacking team and was severely injured thanks to his inexperience in the battlefield. He had been swiped at the back and then again at the front. He was left bleeding and slowly dying. It was only thanks to his regenerative abilities and the help of his packmates that he managed to survive. The two wolves had been defeated, however, and all was pretty well for them. William admitted that the battle had been very fierce and he swore to make himself better when it comes to fighting.
He never went on to college and opted to stay with Volber. There were two reasons: One, he didn't have the money nor the smarts to get into university and pay for the tuition fee. Two, he didn't exactly have any sort of goal in his mind other than protecting what is already around him - his city, or at least, what he can. He settled down into his usual normal life. He would often be one of the first people to greet a newcomer and even give them a tour of the place. He doesn't do much and people wonder where he gets the food and the money to buy clothes, but he only responds that it was because of his work with Volber and also because he gets tips from the ones he gives tours to.
William had a history with one of the witches of Salem - a young woman named Jamie. They were the best of friends that soon became lovers when he was eighteen. They would often be seen together. They were overall a sweet couple who doesn't show much affection in public, or even in private. Jamie had always invited him over and they would watch some scary shows just because, and then laugh at those movies that depicted them wrong. Nothing much had changed between them being best friends and them being lovers. This lasted for a year before they eventually broke up, thinking that it would be best if they simply stayed as best friends. They do admit that it had been quite a ride and everything had been going on well - but they just don't think they're right for each other. Jamie had since moved on to another boyfriend but still keeps William close to her heart as her "bestest friend" and he completely accepts it.
William never cared much for the hierarchy of their current pack. He is somewhere around the "Subordinate Class" - something that is in between the Beta and the Omega. However, he doesn't really care much for ranks. When their alpha challenged the new werewolf - a woman named Blaine Moore who he felt was admittedly dominant - he expected that it would like any other time. But Blaine had won and took over the supremacy. However, like before, there isn't much difference since she generally keeps to herself. William does tend to visit her every now and then - as he does with all of the werewolves in Salem and sometimes even other supernaturals who reside there, depending on his standing with them. Despite rivalries before, William never felt any sort of hostility towards or from the vampires so he became acquaintances with the lot of them.
With the shifts and the mysterious symbols coming up, William becomes more and more worried. He didn't know what was happening and he was hoping that it wouldn't be too bad.
| {Extra} |- He can apparently hold his liquor and has a very high tolerance to it.
- He struggles with learning new languages, so he often resorts to reading body languages when it comes the time for when he needs to listen to someone who speaks another language.
Wow. Seems like the wolves are filling up fast.
@Lionhearted @HushedWhispers
I have two questions about vampires.
1. When it comes to sunlight, are we talking about direct skin contact? Could a 'heavily dressed' vampire walk a block or three with minimum to no damage from the sun? Or will the vampire burn despite the clothing?
2. Can vampires ingest regular food/drink to appear more human?
@HushedWhispers @Lionhearted
Starting to work on my character...possible two :) it might take me a while to get the cs' up. Due to how long and detailed they are :)
Not sure about the dead-lines for it to be submitted
If I join officially, it will be after everyone makes their selection, and then to fill whatever role is understaffed.

| {Relationship Status} |Divorced

| {Face Claim} |Steven Chevrin
| {Dialogue Color} |9966CC
| {Appearance} |Most might say that Dante is materialistic and a trend follower, but its just not true. He likes to look nice and be comfortable in what he wears despite the price tag it came with. He stands at six foot, two inches, with a muscular build. He has two tattoos both on his wrist and both are black. The one on his right wrist is a flower tattoo he got because of a bet he lost, and the left one is a feather. Dante enjoys wearing jewelry, like watches, necklaces, and piercings (both earlobe). There is always little things you can find in his out fits, whether it be in his hats, shirts, shoes, or even the backpack he has on.
Dante's style is random and sporadic but for some reason it always works. On a day to day basis he can be seen wearing designer print outfits - to a cotton hoodie and some jeans, always accompanied by his Jansport bag filled with drugs, water, lighters, his mix tapes (if he has one), wallet, and his phone. His head can either be seen styled up or covered by some kind of hat/beanie. When he is out working in some club or another he sticks to a simple joggers or jeans, t-shirt and a hoodie. In the feet department he likes his kicks to be fresh, Jordans, Nikes, the works but on a lazy day can been seen in some sandals.
| {Habits & Quirks} |When he is in a corner, flustered, nervous, or annoyed, he messes with his hair a lot. The more negative emotions cause him to pull and tug lightly, while being flustered or nervous he tends to run through multiple times to calm himself. He will also hair pull as a way to help him get through a long day, close friends and family know that sometimes (if its not shown otherwise) that this is a sign he has had a long day and is just trying to find his bed.
Date also likes to bite his lip. its not because of arousal but more so deep thought and when he is in pain. Its an unconscious action that he gets called out for on a daily but he still does it, something he picked up from his dead husband. It started with sec but grew into something more and soon became apart of him, whether he was doing drug math in his head or making sure he got everything on the grocery list, Dante would be caught biting one side (right or left) of his bottom lip.
When he holds his blunts it is usually with the thumb and index finger and not in between the index and middle finger. For some reason he just can't hold it as most cigarette smokers do because he feels like he is one of them. Even before his husbands death it was still something he could not do and it always felt weird when he tired.

| {Fears} |🔸Dante fears responsibility. He fears the responsibility he has to his people and his family as well. Dante has great fear for the responsibility that comes with being a warlock and what others might think of him if he does not accept that responsibility.
🔸Dante fears love, well falling in love again. He does not want to chance experiencing that pain and hardship all over again (no matter how good it feels). So you can assume he has a fear of commitment as well, but this boy falls hard and fast so he plays into this fear more than any other. He fears not just the word love but all that it means, not just to him but the other persona as well.
🔸Dante has a fear of Death. He fears what dying actually is and what it holds. While most do not recognize the fear of death that they have, Dante does and that drives him to be selfish sometimes. His fear of death, what it can bring, and how it comes about, can drive him up the roof.
| {Secrets} |🗨Dante, unlike most of his kind, actually likes "normal" witches.
🗨It's only know by a few important people, but his husband was a "normal" witch.
🗨No longer believes in love, after the death he just does one night stands and superficial dates set up by his friends.
🗨He once went on a perma-high back in high school.
🗨He has 3 siblings that are hunters.
| {Abilities} |Dante specializes in illusion magic and simulacrums. He uses special pouches filled with dust, the dust is a mixture of different plants that when mixed together have a different affect. The spells he uses when preparing the pouches along with the base ingredients can have many different effects. He can cause you to see your fears, nightmares, happiest hopes, make you think your experiencing great pain, etc. Dante cannot directly control what you see (what fears you have or what might make your character happy), he just simply uses his magic to manipulate what is already there and amplifies the image. His voodoo dolls are of high quality and when prepared correctly can have different effects. Some act as a totem and bring good or bad fortune to the focus of the simulacrum, while others directly control or affect them. Due to the nature of his spells is well versed in alchemy and potions.
| {Limitations} |Due to the power of his magic, both take extensive preparation and time. His illusions are literally in the size of those pouches you put wedding rings in, so he mostly carries 5 around at a time,
plus they don't always work. His intended target has to come ingest the powder inside and hear the words for the spell to work. The target can smell, drink, or ingest it but the magic words still have to be heard clearly in order for it to work, half hearing the spell means half ass illusion.
The simulacrums, or voodoo dolls, have to have specific ingredients. If your making one to enhance someones love life, you would need them to sacrifice something they love to the doll for it to take effect. For the more concrete dolls, Dante would require actual pieces of their body, you want to control an arm, I need bone, muscle tissue, fresh blood, from that part of the body to make it work. Full control voodoo dolls are hard to make and take time, plus if you don't have the popper materials or it won't work.
| {Personality} |♦ Attentive ♦ Pessimistic ♦ Chill ♦ Selfish ♦Dante is negative Nancy at heart, he is always look at he dark side first and expecting the worst so that he can be surprised when something good actually happens. He is friendly and never turns down the opportunity for companionship, but puts himself first in any situation. He takes care of himself first before worrying about the issues and problems of others. Most of the time will be the first to remind you of your faults, is it because he wants to push you to do better, or is he just an ass like that? Who knows, but above all else he is not one to hold his tongue and make you "feel good".
Dante can be seen as mean but and uninterested but he really is paying attention and makes sure to understand all side. He is a good listener and pays attention to those surrounding him. He is laid back above all else, not one to lose his temper or shed tears over the dead (anymore), most can be greeted with a lazy smile and words that (if in the right situation) cut like a burning knife. Dante is not some cold bastard, he is just the chill turtle who understands that your not always gonna beat the hare.
| {Place of Origin} |New York City
| {Background} |Dante's early life begins with his birth in New York and going to grades school there. His mother was a creole woman who was raised in New Orleans. She was the voodoo witch who taught him everything he knows and moved to New York to branch out on her own. Unbeknownst to her she would fall in love with Martin Anani, and soon after their year long relationship they would merry and start trying to have a family. Dante was born and he would be the only one his mother could carry. This only made him a spoiled child that grew up with his mothers love times ten. With all the love and joy of his childhood mixed with two strong parents, he was growing up to be a bright young man.
Things got rough for his family when he started middle school, his parents where arguing, his father was never home always away on long trips. Dante was his mothers best friend, so when she started to think that he might be cheating and was in great pain, Dante sneaked into his mothers library and found her spell book. He easily put her under a joy filled illusion and when she exited it hours later she was surprised he could do such strong magic with ease and began teach him everything about voodoo witches and magic. His learning period would be all through out middle school, and it was the only moments of he and his mother had that were filled with happiness and not the pain of betrayal. He was overjoyed to find out about his heritage and gifts (or at least one part of it), he was a sponge for knowledge and wanted to learn more and more so that he could hopefully find a way to help his mom.
One day after school, Dante came home fro school and found his house in ruin, and his two bloodied parents with scratches bruises and large open wounds sitting on what used to be their living room couch but was just springs and loose fabric. His father got up, and went into their destroyed bedroom packed a bag and hugged Dante and said saying "Goodbye." After the incident, Dante and his mom moved to Salem, Massachusetts to live with his grandmother (who was also a voodoo witch). His mom never spoke about what happened until he graduated, and would not answer any questions or inquiries, so Dante learned to just drop it.
He would start high school in Salem, trying to make new friends while finding his place in the towns already confusing dynamic, between the "normal" witches, vampires, werewolves, and hunters he had a lot to look out for, back in NY his mom shielded all of this stuff form him but now it was out in the open. Because of his sheltered upbringing he did not carry a planted hated for the "normies" (normal witches) like his grandmother had, and even though his mom said she was not judgmental she still turned he nose up at them when she got the chance.
Though he did it in secret, he fell in love with one, Marco Blackwell. Their relationship was only known by the boys' mothers and it stayed that way all throughout high school and college. They were both madly in love and even went to NYC for college after their high school graduation marriage. Everything was going well, until Marco's father found out about them and demanded they break up, and when they refused Dante's grandmother got involved (via Blackwell Seniors request). She worked his his father to do a spell that would kill their "love", and make one of them lose all feelings for the other. The spell worked and Marco filed for divorce soon after they graduated and immediately moved back to Salem. Dante on the other hand was the one left with the pain and feelings, his mother tried to warn him, but it was to late. Dante graduated with his degree, Bachelors in Plant Science, and went to work around the world.
He returned to Salem a year ago when the woman who ruined everything fell ill. His grandmother is due to die soon and he wants to be there when it happens. So he has been playing hide and go seek with Marco since he got back while praying day after day that the old woman finally kicks it. Dante's "love" was murdered in front of his eyes, so he came back to watch the grand author of its death get what she deserves.
| {Extra} |Anastasia Maganti (his mother), told Dante what happened to her and Martin Anani (his father):
When they both started to date, they were hiding big secrets. Dante's mother was a voodoo witch, and his father was from the famous Anani hunter family from Italy. They both hid things from each other, and it caught up to them in the worst way. Martin was given a job to kill Dante's grandmother (who he had met more than once) and brought it home to confront his wife. They decided to fight to the death and whichever one was left alive when Dante got home from school had the responsibility to take care of him, but by the time he was due home they had only succeeded in wounding each other and wrecking every room in their condo. So he spilled the beans about how his life was not a secret and her and Dante were his real "secret." He went on to confess that he had three other children, all older than Dante, who were hunter, and about how he was already married too. So they decided to split, she would take Dante back to Salem and he would go stay with his "real" family and only ever come back if he wanted to help his son.
@Lionhearted My question about mixing regular and voodoo magic was never answered. I recall that Hushed said no, but you might have a different view from her.
So trading strength for flexibility. Got it. I'll have a regular witch up sometime tomorrow.
@Lionhearted I did a thing, hopefully it's something.

Her heart shaped face ends with her cleft chin, lips plump and usually bearing some sort of lipstick with a smile, cheeks always blushed, dazzling blue eyes with long eyelashes and perfectly plucked eyebrows completing her look. Her hair is blonde, its length easily sweeping the middle of her back, her bangs usually swept to the side.
Her outfits are feminine, sometimes frilly, and always fashionable. They tend to accentuate her body, though she loves the gazes she gets from them as clothes do make the woman. She prefers short skirts and dresses that show off her long legs, though admittedly, they're a hell of a lot easier for her to run and jump around in. She's almost always wearing a pair of heels, favoring those with either a sharp end (easier to stab an enemy with) or a clunkier heel (gives a little more force to her kicks). She actually doesn't like to wear too much jewelry, though she does have her ears pierced and does like to wear bracelets. She has a very cliche tattoo of a tiny pair of wings on her shoulder blades, though they're usually covered by her hair.
| {Habits & Quirks} |♥ Licks her lips a lot, even when she isn't trying to seduce anyone.
♥ Crosses her arms in such a way that always pushes up her chest.
♥ Peppers french phrases into her speech. Yes, it's as pretentious as it sounds. She loves it.
♥ Has a minor gambling addiction due to a mobile phone game that she constantly pours money into.
| {Hobbies} |♥ Loves playing dress up games.
♥ Can sing nicely.
♥ Studies etymology, and practices the romance languages.
♥ Used to kickbox to get into shape, practices to keep herself on her toes.
| {Likes} |♥ Kisses, making out, massages, any physical contact...sex could be thrown in there as well.
♥ Flirting and teasing, even if not reciprocated.
♥ Nature is actually nice to look at, with a particular fondness for flowers.
♥ The sea and its vast mysteriousness.
♥ Stargazing.
♥ Blood, finding an odd beauty in it besides using it to feed her thirst.
♥ Her mobile phone game, even if it just takes away all her money.
| {Dislikes} |♥ Ugly things. They offend her senses.
♥ Not the biggest fan of werewolves or witches or hunters.
♥ Not a big fan of rodents.
♥ Mud, since her heels get stuck in it.
♥ While she doesn't mind prudes, she despises those that preach that sex is bad.
♥ Religion.
♥ Her mobile phone game, because it keeps taking away all her money and won't give her the characters she wants damn it!
| {Fears} |♥ Commitment is a bitch, isn't it?
♥ Growing old.
♥ Dying alone, with no one knowing or remembering her.
| {Secrets} |♥ She harbors a deep loneliness that can't be sated, using her lust as a way to fill it. Even if it's a lie, even if it's just for a night, sleeping around is a temporary release from that feeling of being alone.
| {Abilities} |Has the standard fare of all the vampire abilities, although she does focus more on the mental manipulation. Her specialty would probably be influencing her prey's mood to one she likes--an insatiable lust, forcing them to want her. She reads body language well, picking up quickly on those who have weaker wills. She's quite observant, though in a fight would rely more on strength than agility, believing that there's no need for speed when you can just bulldoze your opponents over.
| {Limitations} |She tends to tunnel-vision in a fight, and relies on brute force as opposed to having a plan. Sneaking around isn't her style,
as she prefers direct confrontation.
| {Personality} |♦ Plucky ♦ Vain ♦ Seductive ♦ Selfish ♦Aimee's pride is only second to her own vanity. She looks good, and she knows it; she believes that people should take advantage of everything they have, and she knows how to use her beauty as a weapon. She embodies the image of a temptress to the fullest, and enjoys seducing those to bend to her will. She'll use, abuse, and throw away a person once she's said and done. If she could marry her own reflection, she would. But of course, beyond the pretty face, there is a semblance of a personality that has nothing to do with the seductress.
Above all, she looks out for herself above all else. There's no point in relying on others so long as you can keep your own. She is on the quieter side, if she isn't looking for prey she does enjoy having pleasant conversations. While she isn't an intellect, she does enjoy listening to people explain things to her, and knows how to ask questions with genuine curiosity. She does keep to herself, always having a wall between her and whoever bothers trying to get to know her. Her trust issues run deep, though she's able to work with anyone and follows orders well enough.
| {Place of Origin} |Manhattan, New York
| {Background} |In her 'previous life', Aimee was born to a poor, but well meaning family. She had ambition and drive even when she was young, and so decided to work hard to make something of herself, and to make her parents proud. As she grew older and developed into a pretty girl, she began to use her wiles to help get what she wanted. She found it was so easy to string people along, and she was much too good at it. Her well intentions melted away, her ambition turning into greed as she climbed her way to the top, culminating in having an affair with an older, married man at the age of seventeen. Said man had much wealth, and she convinced him to give her a part of his fortune.
She did, however, make a mistake of targeting him; little did she know of his involvement in illegal trafficking, and when she tried to get more money out of him, she soon found herself at the end of a barrel pointed straight at her. All the money she had convinced the man to give her was taken away, and while she was told she was lucky to have gotten out of the situation with her life, she couldn't stand the thought of losing everything. In a fit of rage, she confronted him, though this time, she caught the attention of the man's wife, a vampire by the name of Giselle Benvenuto.
Giselle believed she had known too much, though she had taken a personal interest in her. Aimee had no belief in the supernatural before then, though found herself at Giselle's beck and call, and was turned against her will. In time, however, she would quickly begin to see the perks to vampirism. As she was turned at what she believed to be the peak of her youth and beauty, she would never have to worry about getting old, she would never have to worry about anyone threatening her. She stayed with Giselle for a long time, falling in love with her, though Giselle rejected her. Shortly afterwards, a confrontation between a group of witches and Giselle's coven resulted in many casualties, It was then Aimee decided to take her leave and abandon her old life, leaving her name behind, and starting over.
She wasn't quite sure where to go or what to do, though she ended up going over to Boston, Massachusetts after seeing them looking for models for a company named Brass Clothing. Seeing as how she felt the entire world should know her beauty, she signed a contract, and the whispers of Salem reached her shortly thereafter, cementing her new home.
| {Extra} |She used to be allergic to shellfish, and avoids it even though it doesn't do anything to her now.
Will try to get a vampire character up tomorrow.
@Lionhearted
Well since everyone seems to only care for themselves, I figured why not make an innocent guy and see what can happen to him in the span of the RP.
Weren't Weres supposed to either be able to fully shift fast, or partially shift?
@Lionhearted Yes, I meant for our new werewolf. I believe it was stated in a couple of places within the CS that he partially shifts. Personaly I'm not that opposed to Weres being able to shift both ways if one of the two is weaker and has significant drawbacks.
