Every fable, or legend is based on some sort of fact... But some of these make believe stories have more fact in them than others. For example: Vampires. Bloodsucking immortal creatures of the night, who burst in to flames in sunlight, die when they catch a scent of garlic, and can turn in to bats... And only a few people know that these creatures are very very real, and very very different.
Vampires can easily blend in to society by assuming their human form. They look just like everyone else. Contrary to popular belief, Vampires can survive in the sunlight, their skin gets used to the sun with their years of being one, but their eyes never adjust. Their true appearance, however is completely different. Their eyes are nothing but the darkest black, their skin so white and pale that you can see the black unnatural veins underneath. Their teeth turns to rows of fangs, and their hands long sharp claws.
Vampires are immortal, but they age in different ways. With time they can be strong enough to lift a train cart. So fast and agile that they can leap distances, and dodge nearly everything. Their only true weakness is silver, nothing else will cause them harm. Vampires can fight one another, but they can never kill each other.
These creatures have infected the world, and usually tend to live quietly, and peaceful with the humans... But one town is known for its constant struggle against them. Brooksfield Colorado is a small, friendly town deep in Rocky Mountains. Ever since it was founded in the 1800s, there has been a constant, invisible war. The people assigned to fight them have mastered the skill of vampire hunting. They realized that garlic and holy water doesn't work, and the dense trees hide the creatures from sunlight. Silver weapons, stakes, and flares are their only weapons, as well as technique. The hunters who had heritage in the family have a sixth sense, the ability to tell if a person is a vampire, or human.... They are called The Protectors. Over the century of fighting, there are only a select few who are Protectors, and for the safety and well being of the citizens, they keep it secret. The Protectors and vampires have come to an agreement long ago that the Vampires keep to the forest outside the town, and the humans keep the town and roads... If either cross the borders without a reason, they will be executed.
There are exceptions, of course. Vampires can be registered, and they can live with the town, to try and cope with their new abilities, and help the town in any way they can.... But as the silent war of Protectors vs Vampires continues, the protectors have a conflict themselves. The current sheriff believes in the old traditions, that people and vampires can live in harmony, and without killing one another unless needed, and some of the younger generations believe that Vampires can't be trusted, and that they should hunt them all down.
The town seems quiet, and it is friendly, and a nice place to live... But its filled with danger and mystery. How will you spend your stay?
RULES:
1) You can be a Protector (Vampire hunter), civilian (store owner, state cop, mayor, etc), Vampire, or ID'd vampire (Friendly who lives in the town) if you have a question on what you want to be, and how you want to play, please send me a PM and i'll be more than happy to help out!
2) Don't always start chaos and action! This will be a RP full of romance, drama, action, adventure, and other stuff as well!
3) Keep it to one CS for now
4) Don't be OP, and NO ONE SENTENCED POSTS! i understand writers block, and i prefer quality over quantity, but saying "he entered the room" just adds clutter, and doesn't help the story what so ever.
5) be creative! i love seeing how you guys make characters and how you make them unique!

Name: Benjamin Ford
Age: 39
Appearance: A strong, tall man.Benjamin Ford is a man who has done everything on his own, and has the hand and body to prove it. Although a bit older, Ben is still quite attractive. Has a full head of black hair with a touch of gray on the sides. Usually has a stubble, but nothing more. Steel gray eyes, and a scar across his cheek and eyebrow. Usually wears the sheriff's trench coat with the badge, jeans, and an old cowboy hat handed down from generations.
Faction: Protector
Job: County Sheriff, also in charge of the Protectors
Bio: The Ford family is extremely notorious in this town. Ever since the very first Protectors, my family ran the league of Vampire Hunters. And generations passed. I lived with my father. He never told me what happened to my mother, but i didn't mind. Growing up i learned the honest work the do out here in the middle of nowhere. I helped my dad at the sheriff's office, helped him with chores, and he made me help the other people in the town with their's. I always knew my father was keeping something from me though. And as a young teenager i would follow him around, or try to stop crimes in the town. And every time i would get yelled at, and be told many times that no matter what i do, never ever go in to the forest... I learned about the life of the Protectors when i heard crying late one night when i was 17. It was a young woman, racing through the streets, yelling at someone to leave them alone, that she wasn't one of them... my curiosity and my hunger for justice got the best of me.
I followed her, trying to help her, she told me to stay away, or I'll be hurt. Not thinking, i rushed after her in the forest... where i was immediately welcomed with laughter, demonic hissing, and being thrown in to a tree before i even knew it. I came to to see the most evil thing i have ever seen in my life. Now i know its a vampire, but back then, i thought i was staring at death itself. Before i met my death, or worse, my father and a few other deputies came rushing in... I got out alive, but with a few scars, and a big one across my cheek. My father had no choice but to tell me. I eagerly joined when he asked me. I fought alongside my father for a few years, helping him with shifts, learning how to fight with my own weapon of choice. I chose a wood axe laced with a hard silver coating, and i became an expert. I learned the techniques of what to look for, how to fight those creatures, and that some of the closest friends of our family were vampires who swore peace with the town long long ago...
One night though, there was a riot with the vampires. A group of young, rebellious ones attacked the town... it was terrible, with casualties from both sides... one being my father. After my father passed, the Protectors didn't even have to ask, or have a discussion. I was his successor. Dawning his hat, and badge, i kept the town from danger. And for decades i have been doing just that, losing some close friends, and fellow Protectors from deaths, or from them moving away. I married (IF ANYONE WANTS TO BE MY SON/DAUGHTER, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!), but she left me when she found out about the secret of this place... Most people think I'm too old for this job now... and they are usually knocked on their asses before they can finish the sentence. I have spent most of my life keeping this town safe, and i will do that to my dying breath.
Personality: Has a very strong sense of loyalty, Justice, pride, and courage, but not stupidity. Learned at a young age to not rush in to a situation. Always willing to help anyone in need. Is the father figure of the town, very humble and kind. Also knows to not hold grudges, but will get furious if anyone disobeys orders.
Family/Relationships?: Anyone interested in a romantic, or family relationship, let me know!
Weapon(s) : A old, silver axe, an old revolver with silver bullets, and some mini flares to blind the vampires just in case.
Other: there is said to be a Ford family curse... every one of my grandfathers have died from fighting off vampires before they reached the age of 40... Also very strictly enforces curfew, and not going in the woods at all times.
