[Slypheed]

Hmm.
After rattling my brain, I've found a good idea for a character.
She should be up some time tomorrow.

[BlackPanther]

@Slypheed
Alright awesome
Looking forward to reading it over :)

So I need to ask.

I am considering make another scientist, but this guy is younger, a new grad, if you will, yet he has been working with either/and/or Hal and Eric for a few years at most. Does he know that the Dark Fairy is working with Eric? or is that a big secret?

I'm thinking of having him specialize in supernatural detection technology. He'd be involved in some field work, maybe borrowing a few of Hal's shapeshifters to aim his special cameras at. He could be part of a team that hunts and captures supernaturals maybe?

[BlackPanther]

@Wraithblade6
All scientists would know of Mr.Right as he's used to finish up a job if the humans can't finish it. Werewolf won't turn? Call in the dark fairy who can make the werewolf believe it is the full moon.(course this wouldn't be done to any player controlled characters) Scales not coming off? Call in the dark fairy who can pull them out with his claws or use multiple tools at once.
Very useful he is. Basically like a back up tool to get their ingredients while he gets the bonus of food and such.

Shorter answer: no he isn't a secret.

As for being with the shape shifters I see no problem with it as long as you discuss the details with the person whom owns Hal first.

I mentioned Edge in my CS I hope that was ok? If not I can totally remove it :)

@Theodora_21

It's great. It's always great when people mention each other or reference other people's events in RP's. It makes everything come alive and shows that everything happens in the same world.

I'll get my characters up tomorrow :)

@Wraithblade6

I think Hal could spare both shapeshifters that have been experimented on for the dangerous and and more challenging experiments and his lab assistants for more harmless experiments.

I assume that Hal is the leading shapeshifter specialist, that he, Graham or Mal/other trusted staff are the people to see for anything shapeshifter related and that Hal or Graham run the main storage facility for Shapeshifters.

Should I make two more character sheets for both Mal and Graham? If I can then what would be the natural form for shapeshifters, a blob or some rather horrifying creature?

[BlackPanther]

@Orlan
That sounds fine just keep in mind any character scientist wise would answer to the head scientist. So they would be like a tier or two under Eric if that makes sense.

As for natural form usually it is human. At least any form I've seen has had a natural form of human, it's the type of shifting that is different.
You can have it be easy like a werewolf or horrifying where they shed blobs of their previous form. Along with that you can either do human shifting or animal shifting.

Edit: also yes make a sheet if they will be used often.

[Orlan]

Alright, I had Hal in mind as the person who would directly answer to the head scientist with anything and everything involving shapeshifters.

The sheets:

Mal

Name: Mal

Nickname: The Shadow

Age: 23 years old

Type: Deformed shapeshifter.

Affiliation: The scientists (Hal and Graham really)

Appearance: When he is in his natural form Mal is a rather tall and lean human form, that almost seems to be made out of shadows, he can be touched and is physical but he almost looks like mists gathering into the spectre, the figure of an almost unnaturally lean and around seven foot tall man. No discernible features apart from clothes, clearly defined: A coat that spans from Mal's heel to his neck, under that coat is some form of shirt with some very ordinary trousers, the clothes are a shade or two brighter then the rest of Mal.

Personality: Mal normally doesn't interact with new people, he is very cautious but when he eventually talks to people he thinks are safe he is kind and thoughtful but very brief, so he is shy but kind and reasonable after a while.

History: Found by Hal just after being born, Mal immediately found a lifelong friend, Graham at first didn't want his son mingling with a creature that might be deadly, so after a very long discussion between the rapidly developing Mal and Graham Mal was allowed to grow up with Hal, both acting as brothers to each other. That has continued on ever since, Mal and Graham recently succeeded in getting more reliable shapeshifter staff.

Abilities: Blending into the shadows (Literally becoming a part of any shadow he wishes for up to a full day), almost masterfully shapeshifting and he can eat people... by converting them into shadowlike remains and then merging these said remains into him.

Weakness/weaknesses: Not much in the way of physical strength, only has training in the tools used for experimentation and research, hates bright lights to the extent that blinding light weakens him drastically, fondness for his adoptive family to a fault, he tends to get extremely hungry after being exposed to blinding lights and any other weaknesses shapeshifters inherently have.

Other: He tends to hiss from time to time, he normally takes time to embrace his surroundings... by becoming a part of them. His version of a bedroom is a small room with one candle in it and many objects that create many different shadows, normally with Mal's meal in the middle of the room, normally being the offal parts of supernatural creatures other scientists don't need anymore, alive or dead.

Graham Silas

Name: Graham James Silas

Nickname: The Shapeshifter's Consigliere

Age: 42

Type: Human

Affiliation: Scientists (One of the first to discover supernatural beings)

Appearance: A man of an average build and around six foot tall, his attire is similar to that of his son's, minus the labcoat and add a few scars to his waistcoat and the big overcoat he wears instead. He has multiple scars from when he helped discover many supernatural beings and a very thick beard and the first signs of balding, his eyes almost the same shade as his hair; a deep and luxurious brown.

Personality: A very formal, sophisticated and respectable man, he is much like his son on supernatural beings, except that he only respects shapeshifters, not admires them. He seems to be formal and presentable to new people, to more familiar faces he is a lot more informal and more relatable, but overall a bit more dull then either Hal or Mal.

History: A man of a very respectable and ordinary upbringing, his desire to discover new life and attempt to gain something from them were the two passions that drove him to working in the same animal testing laboratory that he, Eric McConnel and a few others first found a supernatural being, from then onwards Graham, his wife and infant boy went across the world in search of other supernatural beings, where his son found the shapeshifters... Miss Silas died to the father of Mal, in return Graham orphaned Mal and took the deformed shapeshifter out of rage, revenge and want of studying the shapeshifters. Graham and his only surviving specimen became more then just studier and subject, more adoptive father and son. Graham saw how the shapeshifters didn't harm Hal and after a year allowed Mal and Hal to grow up together under his watchful eye. Until Hal became 19 and had finished his formal education alongside his supernatural research education Graham had very little success studying shapeshifters alone, when the trio began working on research they managed to make studying and using shapeshifters very profitable and useful in many ways. Now he manages the paperwork and helps other scientists as much as he can while allowing Hal, Mal and the rest of the shapeshifters to actually research and use shapeshifters.

Abilities: He is second to none in the study of shapeshifting and form manipulating in general and a good shot with a revolver.

Weakness/weaknesses: He is slightly afraid of most supernatural beings, obviously excluding shapeshifters, not very agile, less then average when it comes to strength, bit rusty on his research of any other supernatural being that doesn't normally manipulate it's form.

Other: He always keeps the revolver he killed Mal's family with on him, he respects Mal but is slightly scared of the deformed shapeshifter, his old laboratory is part of an old family estate he inherited, he tries to keep in contact with the other original discoverers of supernatural beings.

Only just realised the fact that I've made a slower version of the Vashta Nerada with Mal... can't blame Graham for being scared.

[BlackPanther]

@Orlan
Interesting take on the shapeshifter. Seems more shadow being less shapeshifter, but I really like it.

Believe having that type should a rarity so Mal will be one of few like him.

Anyway I really like both, they are both accepted

[Orlan]

I had Richard the Third in mind weirdly, a hunchback ruling Britain, a shadow of a shapeshifter helping scientists rule over supernatural beings. It is the same principle.
