Anyone alive out here?

Another comparison is our witch-hunter, who is defined as a master with the rapier as one of his skills, amongst others
Well, we all have to be good at something. I can tone it down, I suppose.
Name: Lucien le Croix
Age: 123 (24)
Gender: Male
Race: Vurkolak
Appearance: Handsome and young. Dark hair, red eyes. Fairly tall (5' 10") and extremely slender.
Clothes/Armour: Lucien's clothing is typically quite formal and middle class. Whilst neat and clean, it is far from the finest.
Weapons:
Atropos - The Holy Sword of Ostrheinsburg, this silver rapier is steeped in history. It is still as sharp as the day it was forged.
Dagger - A simple dagger. Useful for stabbing or slashing, nothing really special about it.
Talisman of the Pure Soul - less a weapon than a charm, this ancient device gives Lucien some resistance to light and dark based magic.
Skills/Abilities:
Superior Demonhunting/Witchunting - As a demonhunter, Lucien has studied supernatural creatures like ghosts, demons and angels to great extent, and even has some personal experience with them. If you ever need to learn about such creatures, Lucien's your guy
Inside Pockets - Lucien keeps his valuables (Keys, ring and money) inside pockets on the inside of his coat, rather than the outside. Good for stopping thieves, bad for getting them out in a hurry.
Ambidexterous - Lucien can use either hand with ease
Weakness to magic - Lucien suffers more than normal if struck by magic. Enchantments do not affect him as badly as pure magic but still have greater effect than normal.
Weapons training - None: He has never officially been trained. Any concept of swordfighting other than "Hit foe with sharp end" is beyond him.
Magic:
Exorcism - It's Lucien's job to exorcise demons and aggresive spirits, so it's only natural he'd know how to do it.
Mermet du Vec - Through any form of contact, clothed or unclothed, Lucien can drain energy - whether magical or stamina - from his victims at will. This process is extremely painful for both parties, but causes no lasting damage on its own.
Inventory:
1500 or so total Gold, only carries about 10 at a time.
Key to De Croix Household
3x Health potions
2x Cure illness potions
Holy water
Bone charms to help ward away demons
Ring of the Void - decorative, but valuable. Given to the head of the Le Croix household.
Backstory: Lucien was born into a refugee caravan escaping homeland troubles. In this caravan, everyone older was "mother" or "father", as they all relied on each other for support, and all the children he played with and talked to were his "brothers" and "sisters". As such, he does not know who his real mother and father were.
As he got (relatively) older, he eventually left the caravan to live in a city called Ostrheinsberg. He studied the dark arts and purification under the close eye of the priests of the local temple, with hopes of becoming a priest himself, so he could help the ill and misguided.
But Lucien knew the only way to defeat evil was to understand it entirely. For every healing spell he learned, he learned its curse. For every ritual of light he conducted, he performed its darker cousin. Eventually, he became renowned as something both the angels and demons feared.
One day, whilst out walking, he came across a public execution. The victim was little more than a child but she had supposedly assaulted officers of the law, placed hexes on other children and threatened to burn down the city.They called her a witch, but Lucien knew the truth. She was possessed.
Being a monk-in-training, the young Vurkolak stepped forwards and asked to grant the girl her last rites. The executioner accepted, and Lucien went onto the stage. The demon inside the girl spat a string of profanities at the monk as he lay his hand on her exposed belly.
The effect was immediate. Both monk and child gasped in pain as Lucien performed the Mermet du Vec. The demon inside the girl weakened, its power quickly draining.
"Now, demon... BEGONE!"
The crowd gasped as the shadowy aura that surrounded the girl dissapaited. An inhuman roar of agony could be heard as Lucien sent the malevolent spirit back to the other realm. There was silence for a few seconds when it ended.
It was here, on the hangmans gallows, that Lucien met Rosa, admidst the cheers of the crowds and the grateful tears of the executioner - he did not want to kill a child. Realising she had nothing, he took her in, originally as her mentor, but later as her father.
The Temple seemed happy with Le Croix's work, but they warned him that a true priest could not have a family, adopted or otherwise. Rather than give up Rosa, Lucien decided not to join the priesthood. There was no hard feelings as he said his goodbyes - the clergy thought it was a wonderful thing he was doing and he knew he couldn't devote himself to both Rosa and the temple. In fact, the high priestess even gave him a holy sword, Atropos and asked that Lucien continued to exorcise demons in the temple's name. He took her words to heart and forged a living out of saving the possessed and executing demons.
They left Ostreinsberg and began to look for somewhere new, but nowhere seemed right. Eventually, they settled down in Estermere, Rosa now in her teenage years (by human comparison), where the duo live a decent lifestyle due to Lucien's profession.
Name: Rosa le Croix
Age: 76 (15)
Gender: Female
Race: Cambion
Appearance: Looks younger than she is. Very attractive by human standards, though more people say she looks "cute" or "pretty" than "beautiful" or "gorgeous". Ginger hair, usually tied into her trademark "drill" pigtails. Bright green eyes. Fairly short (5' 4"). Almost totally flat chested.
Clothes: Her normal clothes are very scant, typically consisting of some combination of a corset, skirt and thigh-highs.
However, her formal attire is very different, usually a long dress made from silk. Both styles of clothing are commonly highlighted with roses or pearls and both styles are made from the finest materials.
Weapons: Blessed Stiletto - A small, silver stiletto blessed by Ostriensburg Priests.
Skills:
Cute Charm - Some call her eye candy, others say jailbait. But none can deny Rosa is a very attractive girl.
Keep it in your Corset - Rosa stores her valuables in her corset, bodice or bra. It stops most thieves from trying to take them, but looks a little strange when she takes them out
Street Rat - Rosa lived her entire life in squalor, and quickly learned how to survive with nothing. Rosa is a fast runner, expert climber and decent pickpocket
Street Fighting - With Rosa, anything goes. She knows how to use concealed and improvised weapons, but is an expert with a knife or stiletto. She's also fairly skilled with her hands, but better with a knife
Apprentice Demonhunter: Learning from Lucien has its perks. Whilst her personal experience is limited at best, she knows most things about supernatural creatures on paper.
Nyctophobic: Rosa has an extreme fear of the dark. She can't stand being in a dark room without either a lamp or trusted adult. Any dark-based spells also have a Fear effect on Rosa, even if the spell itself is beneficial. The longer she's kept in darkness, the more distressed she becomes
Too Trusting: Rosa would happily get into the back of a stranger's wagon if promised candy, and tends to trust people most others would stay away from.
Magic:
Lamashu's Blessing - Lamashu, Demon of Lust, once controlled Rosa. Rosa is capable of learning Demonic magic at a far faster rate than normal, but she is incapable of using or benefitting from Angelic magic
Lust of Babylon - Demonic magic. Rosa becomes surrounded by flames, increasing Fire and Dark resistance whilst dealing Fire and Dark damage to anyone who gets close. The spell does not discriminate between friends and foes and increases weakness to Light and Water.
Fall of Gomorrah - Demonic magic. A storm of fiery stones rushes from Rosa's hand to strike the foe.
Pride of Sodom - Demonic magic. A targeted ally's pain is dulled whilst near Rosa during this spell and their wounds will start to heal quicker.
Inventory:
Key to Le Croix House
Notepad
Bone Charm
Some Gold for the Astronomers Guild, where she studies magic.
Effigy of Lamashu, the demon who possessed her.
History: Pending
Name: Vurkolak
Appearance: Fairly humanoid, though notably paler and thinner. Eye colour is also different, with yellows, reds and purples replace blue, green and brown. They all have a natural aversion to light
Natural abilities:
Night vision - all Vurkolaks can see clearly even in absolute darkness. On the other hand, they hate extreme levels of light
Cold resistance - Vurkolaks feel the cold less than most races
Hatred to Light - Vurkolaks hate light. Even a sunny summer day can force a Vurkolak to stay indoors.
Lifespan: About 350 years (Age one year for every five Human years)
Relations with other races: Like elves, dwarves and gnomes.
Suspicious of humans and orks
Hate Demons and Angels
Affiliation: Many are considered evil for their hatred of light and Angels. However, they are mostly neutral, tending to only get involved in things that affect them personally
Name: Cambion
Appearance: Appear as physically attractive humanoids, with pale skin and big eyes. Males are often seen as looking feminine. About a head shorter than humans.
Abilities: Venom? What Venom? - Cambions have a natural resistance to venoms and poisons. This does not include tranquillisers.
Lightweight - Cambions are naturally lightweight. They can move faster than humans and walk along weak structures, but are knocked down more easily, sleep for longer if tranquillised or hypnotised and can be lifted up easier.
Demonic affinity - Cambions and Demons are distantly related. Thus, demons are less likely to attack a Cambion and will deal less damage if they do. On the other hand, Angels take a dislike to Cambions and deal more damage.
Pacifist - Cambions have a strong distaste for fighting and will avoid it at all costs, unless their or someone they care about's life is on the line
Lifespan: Up to and over 500 years, if they keep healthy
Relations to other races: Friendly with Demons and Demonic creatures
Disliked, but tolerated by Angels
Affiliation: Considered Evil by some, but most are too naive and friendly to be anything less than Neutral. They can be manipulated easily, though.

There's an OOC?
"I... Wait, huh?"
What in God's name was going on? First Nikita, then Tala and now Daniel had all managed to find Weisse after he had stopped looking for them. And Daniel was claiming that the first period had ended already?
"I... must have zoned out. Did you say that..? Oh, never mind. Coffee sounds good right now. Anyone else want to join us?"
Weisse hesitated for a moment, then facepalmed. How could he be so rude?
"Forgive me. Daniel, this young gentleman is Clarius. Clarius, this is Daniel."

I'm here...
Role call! I need to know who's still in this!
Keep that list. We can strike those who lose interest out.
Come along now. We should leave out the far future until we've dealt with the past.
Yeah. Like the magic system.
