This looks cool. I'd like to hear some more of the ins and outs of supernatural beings and their communities.

interested! is there any specific type of magic the witches and wizards would specialise in, or would we have some wiggle room for unique spells within reason?

Interested, might do Jinn if that would be allowed.

This sounds cool. Putting my interest forward

Interested. I'm thinking of a Warlock character with an eldritch patron.

Would multiple characters be allowed?

Maybe~

Tentative interest.

How did you envision vampires working? People aren’t really born Vampires, so the whole waiting for a vampire to turn 18 for them to attend a college doesn’t really work considering most vampires would be older than 18 when turned.

@Sanity43217 There was this book series I used to read when I was a teenager that had 2 types of vampires. 1 was the usual kind, turned and frozen in time. The other was born.

I just found a wiki for this old series. Wow.

Multiple characters sounds interesting. Lets me flex a little bit with my ideas. I wonder if a character that's a psychic rather than a wizard would be permitted?

i'm in bro this looks tight

i am now contractually obligated

>This gives me The Magicians vibes. My main question here though is since this takes place in an alternate Earth for all intents and purposes, can we also perform magic that has been attempted in real life? Things like the rituals in Thelema perhaps? Or Enochian? Maybe not exactly the same but similar.

Happy for rituals and real-life equivalents to be used as inspiration.

This could be possible, yep. In our world, Wizards/Witches use wands to channel and control their magic - but a very, very select few may not require wands to do this. This does not mean they are more powerful necessarily, and madness will be a very real consequence of those born with powers of telekinesis or clairvoyance, for example. I think ‘psychic’ characters would be exceptionally rare, and likely treated as outcasts by all groups - seen as untrustworthy folk who’re as likely to go mad as they are to finish their studies. But yeah, very very rare, so whether or not we’d even have one in the roleplay is up in the air.

I think this could work, but I’ll have to think on it a little. You’re certainly welcome to run character ideas by me when the discord is up later this week.

Great to see all of the interest! I expect an OOC and Discord will be made this week, and I’ll tag all the folks here when that’s done.

I will try not to apply merfolk. No promises.

Just to be absolutely clear: Vamps, Witches and Werewolves are just the most common students, right? Not the only choices?

Also before I get my hopes up: what's the expected posting rate?

Correct, not the only choices - but they represent the vast majority. Other species can exist on a case by case basis, as long as they fit with the 'grounded' approach we're trying to craft. Merfolk for example, are fine - but an interpretation where they appear human on land. Something like that.

Posting rate will be very relaxed. I'd ideally like this to be a long term, relaxed commitment. We'll have a discord, and so long as we keep active there, I'm not worried much about posting rate. I'll be the one with most of the deadlines, setting up narrative events for our characters to opt into.
