Well I was gonna wait on Shiinen before posting, but I guess I'll just go ahead and go for it. I think it's pretty safe to say Viridian, myself, Len, Redwing, and Angel are all that's left.


Yup.

I guess I could put up a thread in the interest check to see if I can get new people to join. Or we could introduce more characters ourselves.

We don't celebrate Halloween here, but that's a shame, because we had a country-wide blackout (still going on) and it would've made for some spoopy moments. XD

For a moment there, I read that as Oregano, and I was wondering why you'd be a herb...

Yes. I am Oregano. I am everywhere. I am in your pasta. I am on your pizza. You cannot escape me. My chloroplasts have slowly spread themselves out, I have seeded sequences of my genes in every plant in the world, like prions, we remain dormant until we strike. No one will see it coming. No one will be prepared. And no one will survive.

Hey I'm a Californian! I have a butt ton of relatives in Oregon so my family drives up at least once a year. Which part of Oregon do you live in?

I'm Californian as well.

I asked about the Australian because I know SO MANY F*CKING AUSTRALIANS on this site.

EDIT: Yuen handles stress well. Also DarkAngel, Marie called Gin Marie.

I'm pretty sure Bend is the weird hippy town. Last time we were there, some really high people were having a party in the middle of the street.

My relatives are pretty much all in Redmond.

We have really high people having parties in the street all the time. One time I gave a taco to a homeless dude, and he whips out this briefcase, opens it up, and there are like, twelve rainbow glass bongs in there. He offers me one, but I turned it down, because A, I'm too young for drugs, and B, I don't trust myself to lug something that pretty and fragile down Main Street without tripping (heh) and breaking it.

And yes, spawning, Yuen has an amazing stress handling ability. Don't worry, what would have blinded or drowned a normal person, he'll brush off in a couple hours. Hopefully. Byakko are the strongest and second sturdiest, I'm pretty sure Black Tortoise is the only one heartier.

Dead Cruiser Dishonour Before Death / Better You Than Me

Member Seen 25 days ago

Name: Ketsuryu Shinobu

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Role: Bodyguard

Apartment No: 3A



Race: Dhampir

Abilities: As an essentially half-blooded vampire, Shin retains many of the abilities of his full-blooded preginators. His strength, speed and regeneration are all superhuman, but increase to the level of any "true" vampire if he consumes blood. When night falls, he can take command over nocturnal beasts or assume their forms (wholly or in part). His movements are unnaturally stealthy, and Shin is capable of moving in absolute silence if he so chooses. His power amplifies with the more blood that he drinks, depending on the "potency" of the blood. He has yet do drink the blood of a vampire (considered the most concentrated form of blood), but strange rumors exist of what happens to a dhampir that drinks the blood of a "true" vampire.

Strengths/Weaknesses: Given that he is only half vampire, Shin has access to only "baseline" vampiric abilities, and only after consuming blood. Granted that these are fantastic powers well beyond the ability of any normal human, they pale in comparison to what a normal vampire is capable of. His abilities cannot extend beyond that which he is currently capable of, though he can increase his skill in their use. His human blood does come with its advantages, however, as he can easily stand in the sun (though prolonged exposure will give him a particularly nasty sunburn), crosses and other such symbolic banes do not affect him, and he has only a mild allergic reaction to garlic. He ages, though still very slowly, and requires normal human sustenance, such as food, water, sleep and air, though he does not suffer as much from deprivation. Shin has an intense phobia of fire, and burn wounds take far longer for him to heal compared to "normal" wounds. As he consumes more blood to increase his power, his weaknesses also become intensified, and he runs the risk of falling into a beastial, mindless frenzy wherein he can only comprehend feeding and his own survival. When empowering himself with blood, he also loses his ability to swim; sinking like a rock when submerged in running water.

Bio: The bastard offspring of a high-blooded vampire noble and a Japanese jazz musician, Shin was cast out of vampire society at the age of two for being an "half-blooded abomination." While not raising him out of fear of losing their standing within the court of nobles, Shin's vampiric parent hid him away in his home country to protect him. Never coming to know either of his parents or his true lineage, he was raised in a Tokyo orphanage until the age of thirteen, whereupon he was cast out from fear of his strange abilities. Shin was then taken in by a bosozoku gang, where he was valued for his strength and skill on a bike and in a fight. He spent his teenage years as a punk and petty criminal, eventually coming to perform minor jobs for the yakuza.

He was eventually approached by the being known as the Landlord, and then learned of his true nature. He was extended an offer to live among his kind and earn his living honestly; by protecting his own against the beings that shunned and hoped to kill him. Finding identity among the youkai, Shin accepted his offer, and has come to work as a bodyguard at Primrose Terrace.

Other: He has an avid interest in motorcycles, combat sports and video games. His favorite food is golden chocolate doughnuts.

Dead Cruiser, just a warning. You mentioned one of your character's interests was martial arts. I am a martial artist, one who has been taking it for over half her life. I am a black belt and can be considered an expert on the subject. If you decide to use martial arts during the roleplay or have your character talking about it and don't know what you're talking about, along with virtually punching you in the face, I'll also be going into a lengthy detailed correction on what its really suppose to be like.

Martial arts is my life and my career, right now I have the honor of passing my skills on to other people in the form of teaching them. There's nothing I hate more than people who talk about something they don't know anything about.

Of course if you are a martial artist just ignore everything I've just said.

Name:Joseph Richardson
Age (18-30):20
Gender:Male
Role:Bodyguard
Apartment No: 1A

Appearance:
Human Form:


Yokai Form:


Race: Basan

Abilities: Joseph is able to use "Ghost fire", a special type of fire that does not burn or produce heat the way normal flames do. It is extremely precise and orderly (only burning the selected target), can not be seen by most eyes, and produces no heat whatsoever, making it extremely effective when catching enemies off guard, though like a normal fire it can be extinguished by the same things such as water or high speed winds. Another special ability that he poses is invisibility, though this most often only affects humans, some half-humans who are weak against magic can also fall victim to this ability.

Strengths/Weaknesses: When in normal human form Joseph is mostly a one trick pony, and is unable to use his invisibility, though his flames are just as powerful as if he was in his Yokia form. The major side effect to using "Ghost fire" while in human form is that it leaves him extremely tired and cold, so much so that he may end up unable to move, the only way to prevent this is the consumption of coal, charcoal, or chard wood. While in his Yokai form he is able to use both of his abilities to their fullest without the major side effects of his human form (though he still needs to feed on coal or other flammable objects occasionally). When he is in his Yokai form he does have the ability to use his sharp talons (able to cut through steal with enough force) to attack enemies as a last resort, but it isn't exactly an effective strategy due to its ability to leave him stuck and unable to move, and the awkward maneuvers he would have to preform in order to even attack with them. Lastly, though he is not completely immune to fire, his body is extremely resistant to it, often able to survive in temperatures three times that of a normal human, and is unable to survive in cold environments (anything below freezing temperature has a high chance of killing him).

Bio: Joseph never knew his real parents, and thus was raised by a small time king pin based in New York, named Tino Richardson. His father from what Joseph understood, was a close friend of Tino, and felt that he could be trusted. Though Tino often used Joseph's abilities for malicious gain, they grew a strong bond, sadly though being the person Tino was it wasn't a lasting relationship. At the age of eighteen Tino went missing and was later presumed dead. Soon after Joseph quickly gathered what little money he could from Tino's home, and quickly left New York City. After years of constantly traveling, Joseph eventually stumbled across The Landlord, who offered him a home in exchange for his services as a bodyguard. Having little else left for him in the world Joseph accepted, hoping to finally have found a new home.

Other: He often wears multiple lairs of clothing even in warm temperatures

Name: Claire Lorcan
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Role: Bodyguard
Apartment No: 5A
Race: Dullahan
Appearance:



Abilities

Most of Claire’s magic is shown in the connection her head has to her body, being the fact they’re not connected at all. She still has to breathe and eat, but it’s very obvious that magic connects the two body parts, both in the fact that food doesn’t just fall out the bottom of her head as well as a dark and unnatural smoke that covers what would otherwise be grotesque openings. Other than that she, like all Dullahan, possesses her own steed who has the ability to be summoned in darkness and night. Having bonded with Thanatos long ago after his death her fae magic now binds his soul to her. It’s not unusual to find them together whenever Claire is otherwise alone or even in the company of others such as herself. Aside from Thanatos Claire possesses an unnaturally deadly precision with whips, at her height being able to strike a fly from the air, as well as the ability to have locks and gates open to her approach – with effort.

Strengths/Weaknesses

If anyone were to ask Claire would state immediately that her greatest strength is Thanatos, and it’s not far from the truth. While she may be able to hold her own, as well as have the unfair escape advantage for herself and her charge in locks not being able to contain her, her best mobility comes from her horse, and their combined prowess is frightening. Yet Dullahan are said to have terrible vision, but make up for it by being able to see for miles and right into the house of those they seek merely by lifting their severed heads to the sky. Unfortunately for Claire that little trick only makes her look like an idiot by holding her head in the air for no reason, with her vision still being horrid. In truth Claire has a horrible time seeing long distance, and jokingly says she can only see as far as her whip.

As a direct result of this whenever she’s not in her human form she is terribly protective of keeping her head close, afraid of not being able to find her body once separated. Since, as mentioned, she’ s still alive despite the separation of head and body this would leave the Dullahan completely vulnerable – even just smothering her head without her body there to defend it would end in both perishing. This isn’t the only drawback to her separation however, as Claire can only speak when in her human form with magic binding her head to her body once more – at least for a time. That’s not to say she can’t speak ever, but she’s only spoken one word with her head separated. Last, Claire has a fear of gold and it burns her severely – it can be nearby, but god help the person who brings it closer to her.

Oh, and she also has to deal with Thanatos’ pouting whenever she comes home from riding her motorcycle.



Other: Due to being unable to ride Thanatos in the city streets and hating not having the wind in her hair, when Claire first came to the city she used her funds to purchase a motorcycle, and promptly named it Luciana. Thanatos is intensely jealous she rides that poor excuse for a metal horse around. Claire can also never stop grinning and finds the range of emotions others can use fascinating. She doesn’t like saying peoples’ names and will refer to them by nicknames often. Claire’s also so far in the closet she’s visiting Narnia.
There we go. I slipped a few puns in the bio there.

I realize it’s a bit of an oddity, but I got the idea while reading up more on Dullahans and wanted to at least try it! If you don’t think the character is a good fit for the RP I can write another up however, I’m flexible. :) I might also fiddle with the bio later, but it’s late and I wish to sleep – just wanted to get this up.

And, uh, sorry for the long bio. I really like writing them. I'll compress it later if you don't feel like reading it.
