@Cio eh Beck would deal with it; Aava tries to eat her, just hit her with the butt of a gun and ask "What did we learn?"
Probably the wildest thing Beck has dealt with but she's pretty seasoned.
I see what you mean about Nessa, tho, oil and water.

Evren may be a perfect fit, then; he more or less knows what's going on, he just doesn't like it and wants no part of it lol.
Beck might even be helpful because she just wants to know about history and stuff from supernatural perspectives... she could show Aava what the world is like in exchange for stories about her life, get a little trade going?

Ooooh she's going to have an interesting time. Literally talk about a fish out of water (i know you already made that joke but it's a good one)

Here's a new faction that covers Evren and I think a few others, too.

The Old Owls, “Orloks”
Alignment: any neutral

Most old vampires are old for a reason; they avoid human society as much as possible, feed inconspicuously and infrequently, and generally lead lonely existences of isolation in the wilderness. They’re generally very civil but don’t like to be bothered by outsiders. Occasionally they form small covens but more often live alone.
This is largely a label placed upon them by outsiders; younger, socialized vampires teasingly perpetuate the names for the most part (particularly Orlok, referencing the 1922 silent film Nosferatu), some take pride in being peaceable old owls.

@Cio I really like that because the myths I drew from to create Evren include Albanian legends about the Dhampir, a vampire created basically by a werewolf and a watery ghost (because old European myth is WILD). He doesn't remember that, necessarily, but her nature may be so familiar to him that he feels a connection or protectiveness toward her.

Here's a little summary that might make some more sense, but honestly it probably won't really come up and definitely won't be this literal. Still fascinating, though.

@Cio Perhaps they knew each other back then? It's recent enough that Evren will remember her but she might not recognize him, as he shifts form basically every day. Could be interesting :>

@Cio AAAH I was going to have that be part of Evren's backstory! You mindreader!! AAHH!

He's a shapeshifter so an idea I had was that for a while he lived in and around Scandinavia and preyed upon people by taking shape of various mythological creatures so that he could kill and feed from them. For some time he was a Nøkken in a pond with a violin, he remembers it bittersweetly as he took innocent lives but he felt feared and beautiful.

I actually really like those factions and the vampire I'm making would fit well into that first one as a Progenitor. I might steal those and stick them up in the OP along with some others just to solidify the worldbuilding lol

@yoyohayli

Oh, cool!

lmao yoyohayli beat me to the punch with the same resource

Another page on this site further breaks down the alignment system if it still feels a little alien to anyone, though. I really like how they illustrated each step of their thought process.

@yoyohayli Thanks for approving my weirdos! What do you think of the little post I made about factions? I was mostly just brainstorming something that might be fun for the RP to see if anyone would bite or be interested, but I may have gone to rigid? It seems like most everyone here is more or less independent, which honestly is even better.

also UM @Pie Flavor how did you get your CS to look that cool??
