Would you like me to make a CS for the Vampire Emperor?

I would like that :) If you haven't read my latest characters, please do so that you can make him knowing that'll be his daughter :)

Kingdom of Xiantha

Vampire Princess

Role:Vampire Princess

Name: Vivere Lunam (Vivi)
Age: 37 (appears in late-teens)
Gender: Female
Race: Vampire

Appearance:

She is rather tall, by human standards; the Vampire Princess stands at about five feet and ten inches-- her hair is a light silver; almost white and it goes along with her naturally pale skin tone. In at calm state, her eyes remain a human-esque olive colour, but when emotionally or physically active or in direct moonlight, they become a glowing sapphire. They are sapphire, as opposed to crimson due to her natural birth into Vampire life. She, naturally, has high and sharp cheekbones, wide hips and a thin waste. This actually isn't her natural form-- it's one she uses as bait for prey. Being vein, she changes her form constantly to conform to her standards of beauty.

Personality: Vivi can, at the surface, be described in two words. Vein and Naive. A close runner-up, however is spoiled. She has no patience for people that she deems less then her standards of physical beauty. This is to the point that she refuses to feed on 'ugly' humans or elves. However, she is also admit-ably naive. She is gullable, and can often find herself falling for anything that anyone she listens to says. Which has almost lead to her death on more then one occasion. Lastly... she is spoiled. Being a princess to the Vampire kingdom, and her naturally self-obsessed persona, she feels entitled to whatever she desires and can find herself flying into the deep end at the slightest denial of anything, regardless how small..

History/ Background: One of the first natural Vampires, Vivere is the next heir to the Vampire royal bloodline. She was named as 'living moonlight' on account of her hair colour (truly, the shade was common; it was given special attention on her, given that she was the princess). After birth she was immediately taken from her parents and taken to learn. The first seven years of her life would be training how to be the best of what she was, it was the same for all recently born children of Vampires. Well, the same, yet different. They did not receive the same treatment. Most children were beaten if they failed, by one of their many instructors. Vivi was given vocal scoldings when making a mistake. She learned how to be a vampire; how to feed and how much stronger she was then humans, but she was also taught to believe she was better then everyone else. Perhaps it was the confidence that came with this arrogance that allowed her to become the strongest of the children and be worshiped even further all the way until she was returned to her family. This didn't really help her vein and quite negative personality. Other began to call her 'their highness' or 'princess' and she loved it. Most of the time. She despised it when some said it to her. People with the... weird faces. The faces she didn't approve of. The ugly people. Even as a princess, she didn't want to be tied to someone who looked like... *that*. Normally, this might just be annoying to one, but she instructed her first Lycan guard to rip the throat of anyone that she didn't find acceptable, and it was so.

This Lycan was the same age as her and had been created just to serve her. Zekeial. Her first birthday present. While she'd been off learning how to be a vampire, he'd been learning how to be her servant. He'd actually been very good at it. He was a strong warrior and followed her every command like a tamed dog. The two, Vivi and Zeke, actually became quite close (lucky Zeke is aesthetically pleasing, eh?). Beside her parents, he was the only person she'd been polite to of her own accord. Their relationship was never to blossom, however. When she turned seventeen, he was removed from her service and she was left alone. She never learned where he was sent, but she knew her life changed from there. She was being trained to live among Elves, and by the time she was 28, she was sent to the Elven Kingdom of Xiantha. She was to live there until the war was over and 'the human's came to discuss peace'. She was told from there, that she was to start a fire. The years among Elves, however, had made her a bit bitter towards her family-- the ones who'd sent her here. That was all they told her, too. She didn't know if they meant metaphorically, or... However, now the humans were coming, and the time to act was near.

Alright, after another day like this, if anyone would like to create a second role character please feel free :)

I don't think you need to change the lore to much, as far goes as the Elves and slaves, as it isn't an uncommon practice to imprison those that could throw a wrench in the war machine. The US did it during WWII with the internment camps, though they weren't slaves they were still prisoners of war. Looking back on it it is ridiculous and horrible to have ever been allowed to happen, but at the time it only made sense since we were in a two pronged war that we weren't sure we would win. Drawing parallels between real life and the Elven/Human War shows that during war time, especially when everything you've got is being pushed into the war effort, sometimes hard choices have to be made. Though I do disagree with the multitude of executions you hinted at happening the war was done. That seems like it'd be a horrible decision, as it would surely just reignite the war once more. Especially since King Erik would take it as blatant disrespect to himself, seeing as they would be his soldiers/citizens that were being executed after a peace treaty was signed between the two kingdoms. Just my $0.02 on the subject. Don't mean to add anymore work on your shoulders, being you are the GM after all.Also, as far goes as starting, I think the king/queen of each faction should be in place, since they'll be the ones pulling the major strings throughout the story. One RP I showed interest in is now starting to feel boring to me, so I wouldn't mind writing a CS up for the Vampire Emperor. I know you don't want one person writing for two spots on the major roles, but being that the vampires are working behind the scenes and are out to crush both the Elven and Human kingdoms, it wouldn't be that hard to write. I have experience controlling characters that are opposed to one another in other RP's, so it wouldn't be new for me to do. Though I understand your rules and will gladly wait for more people to show up to claim the roles. I'm just excited to get this one going is all.

Yes, I agree, and I've changed it so that they were more 'captives' then prisoners, and then were released after the war instead of hinting at death. Their child had to stay because she was born in the city.

I was thinking we might start another thread for each group (Human, Elves and Vampires. Integrate the Bastet in with one) and have each faction get to know each other, so when we start here it can be at the meeting of King/ Queen and the knights will really know who they're guarding and have some actual RP background with them :)

I'm SO happy you're excited for this, and yes, if we go a couple more days without filling all the roles feel free to fill another one. We'll do what we need to make it work. I know I'll fill atleast one roll too :)

This might be some help, that is if your into Elves.

Thanks :) I'll read that tomorrow and then I'll make another CS for either the Elven Queen or the Vampire Queen so we can get this thing going faster.

well... I had a whole memory strip of Elve info, and guess what.... I cant find it now. :(

That's to bad :/ I changed it a bit so that their capture was only during wartimes for strategic purposes. Temporary prisoners with benefits that were let-go after the war ended. Unfortunately, their child had to stay :)

Miss GM,Ordinarily Elves wouldnt keep slaves, Elves revere their freedom and to move about as they please, the thought of being kept in bondage to another is viewed as almost akin to death, and therefore would not subjugate others to bondage of slavery

For real? o.o Oh. Hmm... I'll rework that history then, thanks for letting me know!

Kingdom of Xiantha

I might change my mind about having all the roles filled before we can start.

Also, I added accepted CS's to the second post on the first page of the thread :)
