Post from last night was edited to include Valla in it. :) Just a heads up so you don't miss anything!

Rise of The Inhuman {INVITE ONLY}

Aldrai Kaelmorhn

The Kaelmorhn shifted in her throne, her muscles tight. Most would be unaware of the apprehension that resided in her, but those that knew her on a more personal level, such as the other faction heads, and her servants would know that she was anticipating something.

She could feel it in her bones.

However, just as her thoughts were about to devour her, there was a disturbance within the ballroom. People seemed to be parting around another individual. This caused the demoness to pay more attention to the group of people on the floor below her, attempting to find the individual for which droves were moving. When she caught sight of him, it was only because another person had gotten in his way. For a moment, the Kaelmorhn regarded the two men before her ruby eyes fell upon the male garbed in deep blue robes whom she regarded with an auspicious smile.

The Magewright had answered her summons.

It seemed as though the individual who had stopped in the mage's path did not intend to move. The demoness couldn't help but find herself chuckling at the spectacle. Her enhanced senses allowed her to hear the conversation which had passed between the two for a few moments, causing a full blown laugh to escape her throat.

Tonight might just end up being enjoyable after all.

An obvious look of intrigue on her face, the woman signaled for her guards to let the Magewright ascend the stairs. "Mordiir. It's been a while, has it not? How have you been, dearest Magewright?" The Kaelmorhn's voice was soft, body facing the male as he entered the balcony. Her head was tilted as she regarded him, a warm smile residing on her lips.

Soon the others would be arriving as well. She could only hope that their entrances would be as eventful as Mordiir's had been. That would serve for a good deal of amusement, as well as help her not to focus on the people who intended her kin harm.

Valla Craestiir

Click. Clack. Click. The sound of high heels connecting with the polished granite flooring echoed through the nearly empty hallway just outside of the ballroom's intimidating mahogany double doors. The two servants tasked with standing outside the doors watched with confused and worried expressions as a woman of average height paced back and forth in front of the doors. She was clearly upset about something, muttering to herself incoherently. Frankly, it was unsettling.

The two servants exchanged a pleading look before one of them finally spoke. "Ah, ma'am? Is there something we can do for you?" The anxious male voice halted the woman almost immediately, causing her to turn and face him. Chestnut tresses draped over her shoulders, bangs shadowing her eyes in the dim light of the hall. At first, she simply seemed to stare at him, which seemed to unnerve him more because he couldn't make out the expression she was wearing.

After several heartbeats of silence, a smile broke through her mask, and a pale hand slowly moved up from her side to brush her bangs out of her eyes. Striking purple orbs greeted the two servants as she glanced at them both for a few moments each. For the second time in less than an hour, the two men exchanged glances, eyes wide. They didn't know why, but they had an intense urge to run as far and as fast as they could.

Then, as if pitying the fear-filled thoughts that had begun to plague their minds, the woman let out a gentle--seemingly sorrowful--sigh. "Mm. I'm unsure if you can help or not, gentlemen." The purple-eyed woman paused, her hands clasping behind her back as she leaned her torso toward the men, head inclined slightly to the side. "You see, I'm looking for someone."

"Are they attending the event, madam? Perhaps if you give us a name we could see if they're here for you..." The second servant swallowed the lump in his throat before he managed to speak, though his voice was still shaky even then. Why were they so afraid? It was just a woman. A small, nearly 5'1" woman who didn't seem to be very imposing visually. In fact, if the servant had allowed himself to see her more clearly, he would've been greeted by the soft round flesh of cleavage that was visible due to her posture.

The woman's ample bosom aside, she was clearly there for a reason, and the men needed to figure out what it was. However, just as the first servant was about to speak in order to inquire further on what she needed, the woman smiled a wide tooth-filled grin. It was in that moment that she allowed the identifier of her species to be visible.

Long, sharp cuspids gleamed a bright white beneath the soft pink of her lips.

She was a vampire.

"Mm.. I'm not sure if they're here yet..." She finally responded to the servant who had asked her if they could check the event for the person whom she was looking for. "But, their name is Naevine. The Lord Naevine." The woman spoke the name with a soft, almost lighthearted chuckle.

The servants, however, were flabbergasted. This woman knew the lord Naevine? How?

It was the first servant who spoke up this time, "Well, ma'am, if you'll wait but a moment I'll go in a see if the lord is here. If he isn't would you like to wait here until he arrives, or would you prefer to enter the ballroom?"

The woman nodded in response, "I'll wait inside the ballroom if you wouldn't mind."

After hearing her answer, the first servant slipped into the ballroom, catching the tail-end of the spectacle that the Magewright had caused. As the mage and his master began to converse, the servant set about making his inquiry throughout the room. When he came up empty, a sigh left his lips and returned to the hall where the woman waited silently with his partner. "Unfortunately, I was unable to find the lord, ma'am. If you'd be so kind as to give me your name so that I can come and get you should he arrive and enter through this door." The servant's voice was timid as he spoke, his hand reaching out toward one of the door's handles.

Before he opened it, the vampire responded with a coy grin, "Valla. Valla Craestiir." As she spoke her last name, the door was fully opened, and she found herself on the other side of the threshold, surrounded by throngs of people of all races and walks of life. She couldn't help but smile.

Tonight would be interesting.

Rise of The Inhuman {INVITE ONLY}

Elegant music played by a live orchestra wafted through the air of the a large and immaculate ballroom. Within the room there were chairs lining the walls save for in two places: where the tables of food were, and where the two glass doors leading out into the garden were. On the upper floor of the room there sat a balcony where a single red throne seated within it. Atop the throne sat a woman with a cold stare in her ruby colored eyes, deep brown tresses falling in waves about her rather dainty frame even as large black horns protruded from the sides of her skull.

She stared down at the empty ballroom floor with a look of contemplation before finally calling out to one of her servants. "Were the invites sent to the others?" The demoness asked as the servant made his way to her side.

"Yes, madam. Everyone was notified and said that they would be here. They are aware of the importance of this meeting." The servant responded to her, his body bowed low, eyes averted.

Silently, the Kaelmorhn waved the male demon off, her mind wandering to the Church, and their recently advancing numbers. Admittedly, she wasn't sure how long it would be until they knocked at her doorstep. She knew she had to prepare for war. She could not be left to sit on her laurels, and neither could the other houses.

Oh, right, I should probably mention that Humans are capable of magic.

This helped me with the Kaelmorhn

These characters aren't finalized yet. In the case of this RP, that means I haven't decided on their names, races, and/or roles yet.

Rise of The Inhuman {INVITE ONLY}

Important Information

Four factions. Vampires, Shifters, Humans, and Demons.

Four noble families. One from each faction. The House of Naevine (The Vampire Royals), The House of Astrizaeline (The Shifters' head clan leader), The House of Michael (Human Political figureheads), and The House of Kaelmorhn (The Demons head clan leader).

Shifters: Shifters are Humans who can turn into animals. There are many different kinds of shifters just as there are many different kinds of Humans. The one thing known about them, though is that they travel in large groups (usually if the people in the groups are of the same animal). Each group has a leader, but there is also a person recognized as the leader of all the groups. Shifters are born, and cannot be turned, and it is more likely that a shifter's genes will be dominant if they have a Human mate. Doubly so if they have another shifter for a mate. It is unknown whether the parents of a child affect its animal form.

Vampires: Vampires. Myth says they are dead Humans who made a deal with the devil. The reality is that they are another evolution to Humans. Vampires--while most are born--can turn Humans in to their own kind, however, by sharing their blood with the Human. The only stipulation is that the Human has to be ill, but cannot be dying. Vampires have many different powers, but there are a few that every vampire has:

• Telepathy with their sire (if turned), or with their family in general.
• Compulsion: Compulsion is the ability to make someone do something only by hearing your voice, or meeting your gaze. This ability only works on Humans.
• Venom or Pleasure: The ability to make their bite hurt, or pleasure someone.

VAMPIRES

Long ago, when times were much simpler, and history had just begun to be recorded, several small meteors fell to Earth’s surface in various locations. Many aboriginal peoples that discovered these meteors thought them signs from the gods of their coming. However, what it truly meant, was something far more sinister. Within the pieces of rock that the tribes would bring home to worship there were small, almost granular sized eggs. After a time those eggs hatched, releasing small spider-like creatures. These creatures were few in number, and many did not survive long after hatching, dying in the sun, or in extreme cold within a few hours to a day. Those that did survive, however, did so through attaching themselves to a Human body, almost like a tick. Once they were attached, they were nearly impossible to remove unless the part of the body they were on was severed.

Over time these “spiders” would slowly begin to move from their starting position on the Human’s body until they were able to get to the base of the neck. This process would take months, or even years due to how slow the creatures moved. Once they had reached the base of the neck they would root themselves to it, burying their bodies beneath the skin, and into the bone, until they finally reached the brainstem. Once they were within the brainstem they would release both eggs as well as a toxin that, while it didn’t affect the host, degraded their bodies and caused their DNA to fuse with the host’s. What this produces were Humans who shared similar traits to that of the parasites that infected them. They needed the blood of another being to survive, and they spread their infection through a bite.

Once the parasite was completely fused with their host’s DNA it also gave the host enhanced senses, speed, and strength. This process did not take as long as getting to the brainstem, usually lasting over a period of a month before it was complete. However, with their newfound strength came weaknesses as well. These… “enhanced” Humans were unable to stand in the sun for long periods of time, their skin being more sensitive to its heat. If they stood in it for too long their skin would begin to blister as if they had third degree burns. For a period of time after their transformation they could not ingest Human food without getting sick in some manner, usually throwing up.

Not only did the host’s capabilities increase, so too did its lifespan. Most of these creatures were able to live nearly quadruple (or more) the span that a normal Human could. The aging process for completely transitioned hosts is nearly two thousand times slower than that of a Human’s. However, after the length of an average Human lifespan had passed their body’s processes would slow down, until they finally came to a complete stop. The only thing that would function in them at this point would be the brain, for as long as they were capable of feeding. At a certain point, this would be impossible, however, causing an almost natural death.

Before their processes shut down they would be able to have children. These children would have no need of a living parasite as their DNA would already be altered. The one thing they would need the parasite for, would be to lay the eggs within them, once that job is done, the parasite would die off. Children born this way would quickly grow to the age of eighteen before their aging process would slow as their parents’ did.

GENERAL ABILITIES

Enhanced Physiology: A Vampire’s physiology is different. Stronger. They are faster, stronger, and have heightened senses.

Demons: Demons can be both Humanoid, and non-Humanoid in their forms. They have many different variations in both appearance as well abilities and are ruled by a single clan leader.

Post length doesn't matter as long as it's something to work with, and you don't have to fill out a CS unless you want to. Free reign baby!
