I would love to partake in this, but I'm not sure about my availability. @Remipa Awesome@BurningCold@Kurai Assassin

I'm going to try to put up some shorter posts to give people more of a chance for interaction and dialogue when rping with me. There will be an update on Drac and on the state of the world soon.

Name: Ellenora Baker goes by Nora

Image:

Age: 500 years looks about 17-19yrs old

Species: Dracula Vampire

Goals/Faction: As a Dracula vampire Nora pretty much just wants to fulfill her own goals at the moment.

Backstory: Ellie as she was called back then, had slipped out of the town festival and gone to meet her beau. They were going to run away together. She snuck home to get her things and leave. Unfortunately, when she got to the meeting place she found a very handsome vampire eating her boyfriend who was already dead. Too frightened to scream and not fast enough to escape. The vampire grabbed her and looked into her eyes. Her beautiful eyes. He decided to keep her as his own and he turned her instead of killing her. From the moment she woke up as a vampire she was known as Nora.

Her maker was not much older than she herself was at the time he turned her. At least she didn't think he looked very old. She was completely dependent on him and he taught her how to be a vampire. How to kill quiety, to turn someone and how to keep them alive to feed from repeatedly.

Over the ages she stayed in Europe travelling about at times. She wanted to see everything and do almost all that there was to do. Jarrod and she had a huge argument and parted ways. She took Leonardo DaVinci as a lover about the time he painted the Mona Lisa. Some said there was a resemblance even though she couldn't see it. In 1536 she went into hiding when King Henry VIII beheaded her close friend Anne Bolyn. She grieved in seclusion for a long time over her friend.

Nora felt the humanity while caring for those with the plague in London in 1665. Nora had seen many pandemics of illness and it was always hard to watch and try to comfort others who were dying. She felt bad in part because she remembered being human but bow this was her food that was dying from illness and it worried her.

Nora kept her eyes on the new world and swore that one day she would go there but she wanted it to be more civilized first so she made herself scarce and roamed through Europe. She avoided places that were fighting such as France.

She was quite thrilled with the new passenger trains in England in 1825. She loved riding in them and took many trips so she could enjoy them. Just as she had decided to go to the United States she heard they were starting a civil war so she settled for staying at home in Europe. She bought tickets under an assumed name on the Titanic it was supposed to be the biggest and the best ocean liner ever to be built. She was one of few who survived as the ship sank to the bottom of the sea.

Powers/Skills: Stronger than most vampires (2 tons) and quite possibly the fastest among vampire kind (75mph) in part due to her age and in part do to the exercising of her skill. Nora can shape shift into traditional Dracula forms: wolf, bat, mist. She can heal others if she lets them drink just a little of her blood. She takes pleasure in the bite, she has exceptional healing it is faster than most, sunlight is deadly to her, it burns her skin and starts to cook her alive. If she is taken out of the light quickly enough she can be regenerated over several minutes. She must be invited in by the owner before she can enter a human's home. Nora has acquired fighting skills over the years and can fight fairly well but she would normally stay out of things that would put her in that situation. She has learned to hide and change her identity easily and fashionable change her appearance often enough to keep who she really is a secret among humans.

Equipment/Weapons: She likes to carry a couple of daggers and oddly enough a few throwing stars on herself at all times.

@Wick I would like to approve this, but remove the part about not having a reflection in mirrors. If she can be seen, then so can her reflected light.

If @the grey dust approves, you're in.

Just remember, without a reflection, you can't possibly look this fabulous unless you have help with makeup and hair.

Just a few questions:

Please define "Uniquely strong and fast among vampire kind" what exactly does this mean? Clarify this as uniquely gives no relative gauge unless she is the weakest and slowest vampire ever. Which would be "uniquely strong and fast" as so would the other extreme of being the strongest and fastest. Please clarify how fast is "uniquely fast" and how strong is "uniquely strong."

Regarding Glamour and suggestion: We've got quite a few of these already, however you have not defined a methodology of using this ability. I'm assuming it is a vocal mesmerization/hypnosis, however please clarify if anything needs to happen e.g. touch/presence/range

The healing I'm going to assume is standard vampiric regeneration levels. But these two items need to be first addressed.

@The Grey Dust I made several changes. I don't want her to be just like everyone else and I want it to be kind of obvious why she has lasted this long.

Well, um, 10 tons is a if I recall essentially a busload of people and her speed is 200mph which is essentially a bullettrain and also can levitate up to 10 stories which reasons out to be around 100ft or so.

So essentially you are superman. But a vampire. I'm going to have to say the levitation is pointless when you can become a bat or mist and travel at 200 mph as you would fly to height of 10 stories in 0.5 seconds. Let me discuss with Wraith here about this since there is no drawback to your character other than sunlight, at which "weakens" is a relative term here since you haven't defined how much weaker the character would be in sunlight once you've defined the norm. This level of power does explain her age (which is another thing we must discuss since we need to establish exactly how old Drac is) the age sets her alive in the 1200's although you haven't quite placed a exact origin, her history as a vampire in activity or her recent events. Making it hard for me to accept a 700+ year old vampire with this level of power with absolutely zero world history other than a glimpse of when she was turned. Consider adding a bit to the character's background to get a better feel of just how "Old" the character is since you have to make up at least 700 years of life unless she just crawled underneath a rock and slept for 670 years.

Also I'm also this critical of others, so I'm not nitpicking, I've asked for similar requirements before when people have attempted to play old bloods so it's not just you :)

Was Dracula the father of vampires? I mean was he the first one? If he was there might be a problem as he was born in 1431 which was 585 years ago. No idea when he would have turned into one so I changed her to 500. I figured that gave her a little room not to have been his first victim. :)

Honestly I wouldn't mind the help, my main issue is I am no longer in high school, meaning I have to find income... SO! Trying to see if I can get writings to take off. If I can The Blood Compact would be a fun project! But difficult, but if it's a project people are interested in, I could try and host a project up and see where it goes from there?

@Remipa Awesome You know what we should do is get a titanpad or some site where we can collect our individual pieces of work. We could write sections about our characters in our best writing, and eventually mesh them into the book. Perhaps we could collaborate on individual scenes, like chapters, and coalesce them in some chronological fashion.

I really like that idea, but before anything like that can be done, we need to have a set in stone timeline. Things that must happen, and how, why, character interactions. Things like that. Then everything else just fits into it like a puzzle.

I sent you a softened copy in pm. I'm not used to doing CS that are this detailed. I don't require mine to be quite as much as this so it's weird for me you are asking for info about my charachter that I haven't even thought about. I like a little mystery in my charachters. Please let me know asap. If it's not accepted this time I'll go away and leave you alone. :)

I have already approved of it prior to your pm.
The suggestion to go look at other people's histories is for your own benefit as some of the old bloods may interact with your character a particular way given the character history. So don't be surprised if so and so's character does action X regarding your character. Remember these guys who have been walking around for centuries all probably either know each other somehow or are at least will ask what have you been doing in the last century...
