I just _____ in the _____. Posts: 2,881 Group: Moderators Member #18 Joined: Jan 8, 2008	Some of you have been asking for a vampire, werewolf, etc type RP and I suppose I'm here to deliver! While this is set in medieval times, I don't think it will be cannon with our current fantasy timeline. I'm too lazy to tell you what might be to come, so here's a first post to distract you while I get away in my happy-powered boatomobile! ~~~ The night was bitter and cold in the small town known as Pascal. Frost grew lightly on the grass, pools of water closed off with but the thinnest stretch of ice. Winter was just beginning to wrap its gentle, white cloak over everything as a small dusting of snow. Lord Romain Antonin looked down on the young man’s mauled body, his glazed over eyes still wide with shock. Snow melted against the still warm blood. Romain shook his head slowly, pulled his heavy cloak closer to him for warmth, and left to alert the authorities. ~ “People of Pascal!” the elder cried to the villagers the next morning, his breath coming out in a puff of fog. The villagers halted their goings-on and looked at him, curious about the newcomer in the cloak beside their elder. “One of our own has been murdered!” There was a murmur of surprise amongst everyone and the elder let it go on for several minutes before continuing. “A body was found last night by a traveler who’s been staying here. Lord Antonin, please explain further.” Romain tightened the gloves on his hands. Hearing the leather creak gave him the resolve to speak to the crowd. “What you have here is a supernatural attack, a creature of unnatural origin. I have seen other signs as well, you, farmer, have you not lost some of your sheep?” The man jumped, realizing he was being singled out, “Y-yes sir. Two dozen o’ dem since the last moon, sir. Thought they was caused by wolves.” “You’re close, but I believe we may actually have a problem of werewolves on our hands. The tracks in the snow near your grazing pastures are too inconsistent in size and shape. I do believe that I came close to a den of werewolves in coming here. However,” he held up a hand for silence before the murmur could begin again, “They could simply be curious as to what’s going on. In reality, it could be witches, or even fairies living in your forest and causing harm to your village. The elder barked out a harsh laugh, “I am not unfamiliar with the fae in our stretch of forest. I once loved such a creature in my younger days. She, however, betrayed me. She decided to grant me a wish for my heartache. I wished never to see her again so she simply plucked out my eyes and ate them.” He stroked a finger over a silk bandage tied across his eyes. Romain felt a moment’s pity for the elder. The fairy having taken him for a fool twice. He then turned back to the villagers. “Fair people of Pascal, I propose we take the fight to whoever has done this misdeed, before any other evil can happen again. I want a small party of strong people to come with me into the Forest of Sorrow. There we will track them down and end them!” There was a chorus of excitement. ~~~ Okay, so that actually does manage to sum of a few things but there's more. If you decide to RP a werewolf or vampire or whatever, you can choose to be one of the people in the party, disguised as human, or even be someone in the forest, who the party will eventually track down, possibly leading to a fight or diplomacy, depending on how things play out during the confrontation, after you innocence is proved one way or another, you could even join the party (as I'm sure someone causing trouble and murdering villagers is no good for you peace-seeking abominations against God). I already know what is going to be the cause of it, by the way, so it's going to be kind of a mystery. How about it? Up for some wintery intrigue?

Ing Freak Posts: 693 Group: Roleplayer Member #10 Joined: Jan 8, 2008	I'm definitely interested. I'll probably chose to play as a vampire/witch/general abomination hunter or some form of demonic thingy based on ol' Zhard (though since we haven't really decided any on the demons or such I figure I should wait with introducing him.) Oh, and I'm going to catch up in whatever I'm behind in before I join this of course, been holding off on posting in Haybrid for too long...

I don't know that they have any strengths or weaknesses in particular, or diets, or halfbreeds. Demons are pretty widespread in the idea of what they are.

Ing Freak Posts: 693 Group: Roleplayer Member #10 Joined: Jan 8, 2008	Perhaps, but I think that demons should, in general, be fairly weak in the 'mortal' realm unless they have either a host or a contractor/source of power to draw on, due to normally not being physical in the same sense (atleast, thats my view on it, might be good to discuss a basic outline at some point xD)
