Misfits? A RP inspired by The Vampire Diaries Universe

So I've got this idea for a Vampire Diaries style universe. I've never seen the show's episodes but I know that many of the main/important characters are witches, werewolves and vampires, also gods now. /shrug
So basically the premise for this role play is there's a hidden world of the supernatural out there that occasionally preys on the living and our misfits of reformed, or good supernatural characters are taking care of these threats. The role play takes place in the 2030's, and highly advanced technology has all but confirmed the existence of the supernatural, almost. The many villains and heroes working behind the scenes are going to explode in all out war.

You can choose to play dying/dead/depowered deities, witches, werewolves, Psychics, or vampires. If you want, some other form of character is possible, but you'd need to PM me.

Character Sheets:
Name:
Age:
Occupation:
Character Type: Witch, Werewolf, Vampire, Psychic, Deity, Other
Power Set: You don't have to list every power, but summarize what your character does.

On witches:
You can call your character a mage/etcetera, so the terminology doesn't matter. There are different styles of magic users, but there are core magic user types.

Student: Students just read books or learn magic from someone else.
Natural: Magic users that are born with powers are "naturals."
Channeler: Somehow using the magic of fairies, deities, demons, etcetera.

Re:Divinus VII

Eloreon
A child was found being chased by canine predators after the fatal mauling of his parents. The eight year old clang to his new born sister as he fought for his life against the wolf like animals with each labored, running step. The beasts would have the children cornered, at least for now, as they took refuge in a cave, futilly, and frantically searching a place to hide from their hunters. To no avail. The pack closed in, they circled the boy holding on to his infant sister and braced for one last time as the monstrous canine lept forward for the kill. Suddenly, a clawed, furry hand struck forward in the dark, separating the beast's head from it's body. The rest of the pack was just as easy to destroy. Eloreon would have smiled but smiling would have bared his fangs towards the small child. "Come with me, little one." Several miles later, Eloreon would bring the children to a Human proto-settlement.

The Lion god was not primarily a god of magic, but he saw that mortals were coming into the world now. So, as the god of virtue, he would decide that some sort of fall back for mortals to fight back against evil had to be created. Eloreon had decided to create a powerful form of magic called White Magic. White Magic could heal, ward against harm, such as diseases and possession, and even excorcize demons and evil spirits from people, animals or even locations. Lastly what White Magic would be most famous for would it's ability to cure diseases and heal grevious injuries. White Magic could be used by invoking the names of good deities, such as Eloreon, first and foremost, or by their own virtues. Powerful white mages often fasted and denied their bodies pleasure in exchange for power. Sometimes extra power could be given as a boon for being virtuous for long or just strongly enough to earn it. These boons didn't always seem to be based on white magic. Sometimes it was something like telekinesis, or even elemental powers like conjuring ice, lightning, fire, etcetera although these gifts were not particularly Eloreon's forte. Some people were gifted with White Magic at birth. Most others had to learn white magic through studying books or the oral traditions of elders. Eloreon seeks after Humans and other races that can choose between good and evil, and grants some of them the ability to cast many White Magic spells and teach them. Lastly, Eloreon grants the possibility for people across the world to just learn White Magic Spells through study. Great Masters of White Magic would eventually even learn how to transcend mortality. Due to Eloreon's Roar, the creation of White Magic, a large number of mortals would be born with White Magic and all their children would be born with White Magic as well.

Summary

Eloreon creates White Magic, a form of magic deriving from the power of virtue. Some people are born with White Magic naturally. Others just learn White Magic. All of the first generation after their White Mage parents would also know White Magic from birth. White Magic is used by hand gestures and speaking incantations. Power can be added to spells that are cast through rituals. Generally the more virtuous a person, the stronger the White Magic, although this is only a strong guideline, not an absolute rule.

Might And Aspect Costs

Might Cost: - 10 (-4 To create Magic, -4 to teach mortal kind, -2 to help Humans advance with White Magic in the children's protosettlement) = 0 Remaining Might
White Magic is created as a permanent energy source for mortal spell casters to derive power from. With White Magic, the mage can heal, fight evil spirits, ward off evil and eventually, through virtuous behavior and genuine devotion to Good, they can learn some magic outside White Magic's purview, except for evil things like necromancy.

Aspect: - 5 Many mortal people are learning and teach White Magic like wild fire. The first generation of all White Mages will be born a White Mage and Eloreon's teaching will likely begin many tribes and clans based on White Magic.

I am also in a position to pass judgement on some of the other submissions:

@Benzaiten @redraider1 Zhalia & Claire are intressting concepts, however looking at the balance of the current character roster, I think they would be difficult to fit in with everything else without seeming odd. Thanks for your interest though!

@ActRaiserTheReturned I am not sure how to say this without coming off as a bit of a douce, so I do apologise, as it isn't supposed to sound like that. However given the work that everyone has put into their characters, I don't think I would be able to accept someone like Jacob. I just don't feel the passion for it you know.

@Hedgehawk

That's totally a legitimate outcome. I really wanted to join but I wasn't feeling well. Since you're trying to be polite, at least I can pretend that I get an E for Effort. lol.

Re:Divinus VII

Name: Eloreon

Eloreon

Base Form:

Aspect: Virtue is the catch all term for all the forms of goodness, justice which is giving those what they deserve, both good and bad, benevolent use of power, honor, protecting the innocent from harm, and defending the weak/or weaker than yourself (Chivalry/Valor). Mercy, not giving those what they deserve, when it's bad. Lastly compassion, simply granting relief from suffering, or doing kind things to others. Consistency is key in virtue. Eloreon will grant succor to those who habitually live virtuous lives, and reward them. Also, unless Eloreon wishes to show mercy, someone who is just living in a positive way in order to get reward is unlikely to receive much attention from him.)

Virtue can also be seen as a reward, in some way, that's unto it'self. A genuinely honorable person is going to receive the rewards and boons of Eloreon far more often than just an opportunist who sometimes displays a few redeeming qualities.

His roar has a supersonic effect on all enemies. On evil enemies, his roar has the added effect of terror and worse damage.

Persona: Generally Eloreon is Good, maybe Lawful Good but more emphasis on just Good. He wants to encourage and grow a benevolent, honorable society throughout as much of creation as possible. Eloreon is highly philosophical, and he can be forgiving, but he's also stern. For example, if he feels an evil doer who is generally turning away from evil he may let them die/kill them, but cause them to arrive in a positive after life/or perhaps try to help them work their way out of a bad one.

Jacob Vincent Charleson

Name: Jacob Vincent Charleson
Gender Male
Age: 21 years old
Sexual Orientation: Gay
College Degree
Witch or Warlock: Witch
Schools of Magic: Invocation , Abjuration, And Conjuration

Abjuration: He can call forth magical shields to guard him from attack.
Conjuration: He can summon elementals, animals and even mythical creatures like Chimera, Manticore and Basilisks to fight for him.
Personality: He's "almost too gay to function". As a witch he has enormous powers for his age. However, he's almost exclusively good at offensive magic and healing magic, without learning the minutae of other seven magic schools. If he isn't studying he's day dreaming about someone else or playing either table top games or video games.
History/Bio:
Jacob Vincent Charleson was born twenty one years ago in Nevada. He did have an unusually good life for someone in his social class. Well supported by the extended family and charities, he eventually became very well respected as a magic user once he reached the age of nineteen. When he turned nineteen, he came to Washington to live in Tanner. He's been obsessing over men, and magic ever since. Also, he has no prejudiced against warlocks or non mages or anything like that. He's very laissez-faire in life, and generally leaves people alone unless they are being a menace.
