[OOC] ✹☽ Vampires of Redhaven ☾✹

[unicorgi]

Yeah my character is going through extreme editing. I’m actually cutting a lot of stuff out. They’re also not really multiple people so much as different parts of one person.

[Kidd]

I'm still debating on the type of character I want to play, lol. I'll wait for a couple more sheets and throw in something to add to the variety--I'm leaning towards werewolf?

[unicorgi]

Did you mean sexist or sexiest which you wrote?

[Eviledd1984]

Sorry i meant to write sexist.

[Kinjaav]

@Kidd We have a lawful evil werewolf, so why not a chaotic good werewolf as well? If you're looking for inspiration

[Kinjaav]

@yoyohayli I may change a few minor things yet, and I maaaaaay still make one more character just because I really want a straight up villain? Maybe Maybe not, but here are my two guys as it stands.

Beck

Name or Nickname: Hannelore Beck
Sex and preferred gender: ♀
Species: human
Factional Alignment: explorer

Beck is technically a slayer, but her goal isn’t killing; she likes to record supernatural history & culture and deliver justice. She’s basically a nerd that might shoot you.

Abilities: combat trained, proficient with guns
Strengths: steady under pressure, good listener
Weaknesses: stubborn, reticent, prone to isolation
Age: 22
Physical Description: Beck is an African-American woman with a neutral mocha complexion. Her shoulder length hair is styled in Senegalese twists. She wears simple rimless glasses. Beck has a small but somewhat short nose, full shapely lips, and heavy-lidded dark brown eyes. She has a slender, muscular figure; arms noticeably toned, bust slim, posterior taught, shoulders a bit on the broad side. She dresses a touch masculine out of her sheer utilitarianism, opting for baseball tees and mom jeans for everyday wear, but in more contentious situations may wear plain combat clothes and tactical rigs. She’s just about 5’7”
Alignment: chaotic good
Personality in a nutshell: To the average individual, Beck likely comes across as a militant conspiracy theorist with a lot of weaponry. However, for a homeless vigilante, it must be said that Beck acts remarkably sane. She’s very calm and kind, perhaps a bit bold. She’s very open about her interest in the supernatural, despite the consequence of being outcast in human society and a very visible target to violent vampires. She’s very independent, not fond of being helped by others, including well-intentioned researchers. Beck is exceptionally focused and studious, and committed to her self-appointed role as a vigilante and historian among the shadowy creatures of the world.
Any Important Backstory: Beck was raised by her parents and grandparents in a neighborhood of Boston. As a teenager she grew fascinated with all things supernatural, stalking the urban neighborhoods with friends at night in search of trouble; when she got older she found it, happening upon a small coven of new vampires feasting on the local homeless. As a young woman she joined the army, but received a medical discharge just after her second deployment for reasons she’s not been open about. Since then she’s been gallivanting around New England in an electric VW bus, breaking up covens and keeping extensive notes on lycanthropic and vampiric culture.
Her parents still live in the family home in Boston, somewhat worried about her nomadic lifestyle. They call her “Loree.”

Evren

Name or Nickname: Evren
Sex and preferred gender: ♂
Species: vampire
Factional Alignment: the old hiders

Vampires like Evren are generally very old and secretive, living completely separate from human society.

Abilities: shape-shifting

Evren can transform into nearly anything, though there aren’t many forms he can hold for long. He can remain shifted as a humanoid indefinitely as long as he’s unhurt, while taking less human forms is much less sustainable; generally, the further from human a form is the harder it is to stay shifted, though he’s strong enough to hold most shapes for at least a few minutes.

Strengths: He heals quite quickly, even for a vampire, but only when in his true form.
Weaknesses: If hurt, Evren must take his vulnerable true form until he can heal.
Age: He’s not totally sure, but he’s at least 900 years old.
Physical Description: Evren’s true form hasn’t aged well, though few have seen it. His skin is tawny brown but uneven and spotted with age, but seems pallid as if lifeless despite it’s tone; it’s papery and wrinkled, clinging to his bony form. The sclera of his eyes are jet black while his irises and pupils are shocking crimson. His teeth are uneven and fanged, frighteningly large and often stained from when he last fed. His nails are long and yellowed, curled in towards his palm and sharp like an animals talons.
He doesn’t have a “usual” form, shifting his appearance frequently without sticking to any shape for very long.
Alignment: lawful Neutral
Personality in a nutshell: Melancholy hangs heavy on Evren’s shoulders. He’s very somber and can come across a bit cold at times, but he loves conversation and is quite protective of young people. His favorite thing in the world is ginger wine.
Any Important Backstory: Evren was born to a Romani family what is now Turkey nearly a thousand years ago. He spent most of his life living nomadically across Europe, and travelled to America with English Puritans to find some solitude in the wilderness. These days he mostly keeps to himself, feeding rarely and reading voraciously.

[Kidd]

@Kidd We have a lawful evil werewolf, so why not a chaotic good werewolf as well? If you're looking for inspiration

@Kinjaav

Ooh, honestly, that does give me an idea. Have a character in mind that could clash nicely with Hayato lol.

[Kinjaav]

More generally I really want to set some clans in stone, and I can't sleep so I'm going to go brainstorm and comeback with some ideas later.

[Cio]

All the characters are looking good, I'm very excited for this!

[Kinjaav]

These are half ripped-off from what I remember about Vampire The Masquerade and they’re by no means complete. Please help! Add more! And don’t feel like you have to conform because CONFORMING IS FOR NERDS!

Veneni
Alignment: Any Lawful

The Veneni are an ancient order of vampires who can trace their roots to early Christianity within the Roman Empire. They believe that vampirism is a sickness, requiring quarantine from the rest of humanity, due to a person's natural cruelty and sinful nature making it inevitable that they’ll hurt innocent people.
To identify themselves they wear agate pendants; this came about in the middle ages, when agate was believed to cure poisoning.
In modern times the order is hierarchical and rigid, but often beliefs and behavior vary widely between members, due to the age and large size of the order. The more authority you have, the more pressure you’re under..

Sardius
Alignment: Any Evil

An offshoot of the Veneni, Sardions believe their cultic order will give rise to the antichrist and trigger the end times. Therefore they behave as chaotically and cruelly as possible, in an attempt to end all suffering for good. This group split from the Veneni around the fall of Rome.

Úlfurstjórinn
Alignment: typically Chaotic Neutral

A philosophical lifestyle pursued by some werewolves, originating in Scandinavia and being formalized by a small but long lived pack in Iceland. Úlfurstjórinn, or “wolf wanderer,” is the practice of pack hunting and a nomadic lifestyle, learning to survive in any environment by forming unbreakable brotherly bonds with one's kin.

[Pie Flavor]

Just here to announce my interest, I'll have a character sheet finished soon

Vincent Hasan Sayef

Species ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ' Mage ' Magic itself is a phenomenon primordial to the world just like gravity or magnetism once natural to humans yet became aberrant in nature, over the course of humanity's existence. Coming as punishment for the hubris of mages who sought godhood by dominating magic and thus control over reality itself, causing a civil war between themselves. With the Resistance winning, these tyrants were took down from power but at the damage afterwards caused the sundering of what the magical world is today. Individuals who have the capability to tap into the force of magic are known as mages. But besides that designation, they are split into two major groups that branch out into numerous paths which explain how they are able to acquire their ability to tap into that power. Those who study the art of magic from the fundamentals and up are known under many names, being the scientists of magic as they use their knowledge to manipulate it. They lack the instinctual ability to control magic and instead use pre-established methods as their foundation before building upon it with their own experience over time. From witches to wizards, priests to warlocks, these mages have many names for themselves around the world but the fact still remains true that they can use magic. With Vincent finding himself in this group. There are also those who naturally possess the affinity to utilize it within their blood. These individuals are known as sorcerers who possess that inborn talent that comes from their ancestors who were supernatural. They are able to use magic with just their instincts and they do not have to learn the fundamentals of magic but rather what drives their ability to use it instead. Faction Alignment ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ Freedom, Secrecy, Self Interest. Vincent himself doesn't care much for the politics of the mundane or supernatural so long as they do not forcefully impose themselves on him. A privilege one could say for a mage who can mostly go undetected in normal society, but that doesn't mean he is apathetic to what they are doing. As he himself values the secrets hidden within the dark, there are skeletons in the closet that are better left in the dark rather than exposing them to the light. As there are already enough problems as is with the world now publicly aware of the existence of 'supernaturals' both for the mundane and supernatural, but what has happen is already a fact for their reality. It is now up to them to take their situation and make the most out of it.

_{Abilities
^{▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔}}

_{// Magic:}

Magic itself is a phenomenon that can be broken down into simpler components, elements which control the more esoteric or abstract and those which control the material or physical. With the former are known as the 'subtle' arcana and the later identified as the 'gross' arcana due to the nature of how they work.

Alexander is trained in the art of manipulating spaces and boundaries, capable of preforming a myriad of things such as setting up barriers of various properties, warping space to make the inside bigger, teleportation and much more. With knowledge and experience of a person who has solidified their craft, while he is no grand master or archmage, he has considerable mastery. Being a very versatile individual than what others may expect, he is a force not to be taken likely by any supernatural.

_{Mage Characteristics
^{▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔}}

_{// Strengths:}

-Vincent possesses the versatility and power of magic and can easily overwhelm a supernatural in terms of capability, in the some situations they can handle a handful of them.

-Vincent is indistinguishable on the visible level from mundane humans, allowing him to avoid prosecution from humanity and underestimated from the supernatural.

_{// Weaknesses:}

-His physicality is normally like a regular human and is vulnerable to the variety of the supernatural creatures who are deadly

_{Backstory
^{▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔}}

_{// Details:}

Vincent has been a member of the community for only a brief moment, owner of the biggest library of Redhaven and is known as the ever so interesting 'High Librarian'.

[Cio]

Yall have to forgive me for being lazy, I've tried to draw Nessa for the past 3 hours in vain so I decided to simply edit the drawing of Mera I made last week xD Art block sucks

[yoyohayli]

@Eviledd1984 Hayato is approved. I like morally bad characters to create social conflict 😈
@Kinjaav Beck and Evren: APPROVED
@Pie Flavor Magical Mage-y boi APPROVED
@Cio That's okay. I'm super lazy and I gotta actually make my characters lol

[vertigh0st]

@yoyohayli

Thanks for the approval! I'll probably add some info in his background later today. I'm really looking forward to this thread! Such a great cast of characters~!

[Kinjaav]

@yoyohayli Thanks for approving my weirdos! What do you think of the little post I made about factions? I was mostly just brainstorming something that might be fun for the RP to see if anyone would bite or be interested, but I may have gone to rigid? It seems like most everyone here is more or less independent, which honestly is even better.

also UM @Pie Flavor how did you get your CS to look that cool??

[unicorgi]

What does true neutral mean?

[Eviledd1984]

@yoyohayli

Thanks although I am not sure if I wanna make him a anti hero or a baddie.

[Cio]

What does true neutral mean?

@unicorgi

All the explanations (in which Neutral stands for True Neutral)

[yoyohayli]

@vertigh0st I'm excited too!
@Kinjaav I somehow scrolled right past it before! Jeez...

I actually really like those factions and the vampire I'm making would fit well into that first one as a Progenitor. I might steal those and stick them up in the OP along with some others just to solidify the worldbuilding lol

@unicorgi Honestly, I have trouble sometimes figuring out what a certain character's moral alignment best fits into, but this website might help (it's what I use): easydamus.com/trueneutral.html
