User ImageRules___________________________________________________

• Follow the TOS. Do I even have to say this?
• No Godmodding!
• I'm de baws. You have problem?
• This is a literate to semi-literate roleplay.
The occasional short post is acceptable but MOST should be about two paragraphs. Stretch your imagination! Be creative! Be descriptive!
• Check your work.
I'm NOT a grammar nazi, I make lots of mistakes. But basic punctuation, capitalization, and use of quotations and paragraphs is a must.
• Make the post pretty!
Place your characters name and pic in your post. But no animation, and the picture/decorations should not take up more than half your posting space. Some of us don't have lightning fast connections and this causes lag. And its just annoying too.
• No cybering!
I encourage romance, sexiness, and occasionally some naughtiness but anything below the belt must be taken to PMs or time skipped.
• Cussing is allowed.
Just don't overdo it.
• "" for talk, italics for thinking. Use a different color when you have other characters. use {{{}}, [[]], or (()) for OOC's
• This is a long-term RP. Try to post at least 2 times a week.
I understand the we all have other life outside gaia, but please don't post just once and leave.
• Try to keep a certain level of realism.
This is a paranormal/supernatural rp but lets not go overboard. No god powers and no building exploding and city leveling.
• No rushers! No ignoring posts. If someone is asking for update, give it to him!
• If you're going away for a long time PM me!

Don't just leave me and the others hanging!
• Two character limit.
I may consider allowing more as the plot is established.
• READ THE CREATURE LIST.
For the sake of consistency, I have created a creature list that gives rules and a brief description of the creatures/races allowed here. It is not absolute, and I will allow some exceptions at my discretion, but PLEASE at least skim through this before creating your character.
• PM all profiles to me. Title it "Hire me, please!" for workers and "I need a drink" for patrons and anyone else.
• No posting till I accept it. 'Kay?
• Last but not least, HAVE FUN!!

User Image Creatures and Races_____________________________________________

Here is a list of possible characters and races in this rp. It is not necessary that you read all of this as I realize it is rather long. However, please use this as a reference when creating your character. Thanks! Please make a note of the information in bold! ^.^

Vampires:
Are vulnerable to sunlight, silver, wooden stakes, holy water, holy ground, garlic and verbane. Sunlight death is not instantaneous unless the vampire is very weak or hungry. There are charms and lotions that can be purchased to lessen this vulnerability but they are rare. They must be invited into homes or residences. Vampires may consume human food, but it is rather tasteless and unsatisfying. They must have blood regularly to survive. Human blood is vastly superior as animal blood tastes foul and synthetic blood is tastless. If a human is bitten, one does not immediately turn. A human must be bitten several times or be nearly drained completely to become a vampire and/or they must exchange blood with the vampire*. Once turned, the vampire is at first very weak and must be obedient to their sire until they are released.

If your character is a vampire, they are naturally immortal, super strong, incredibly fast, and have enhanced senses. They can glamor/hypnotize most humans and a few other creatures. Some can transform into an animal or mist for stalking their victims. You will be allowed 1 additional power besides what vampires naturally have.

*You can not turn another person's character without their express permission.

Dhampirs:
Are half-vampires; the child of a vampire father and a human mother. These are extremely rare as it is difficult for vampires to reproduce this way. They have the same abilities as a vampire without the weaknesses. Blood makes them stronger and allows them to heal more quickly, but they will not die without it. However, they are not immortal and have only a slightly longer lifespan than a human. They are said to be very adept at sensing and hunting vampires.

If your character is a Dhampir, they will have no special powers in addition to what they have naturally.


Werewolves/Lycanthropes:
For the purposes of this RP, Werewolves will largely be born, not made. You cannot turn into a werewolf by being bitten by one. There is, however, the exception of one who has been cursed by a witch or other magical being. This is rare though, and the resulting transformation is completely uncontrollable and more monstrous than the born Lycanthropes.

All werewolves transform on the full moon. They can control their transformation at other times, except perhaps for when they are enraged. They have an intense desire to hunt and a craving for raw meat when transformed and only a shaky hold on their sanity. They are weak to silver and wolfsbane but can be injured by other means. When in a passive (human) form, they have enhanced hearing, smell, and reflexes. There sight is pretty normal, however. You are allowed 1 special ability to what they have normally. It should suit a werewolf, though.
I mean, I just don't want any flying or firebreathing werewolves or anything like that, right?

Demons:
This is the most varied race group, and it would be impossible to cover all the specifics. Incubi, Succubi, Youkai, Djinn, and Familiars all fall into this category. They can range from animal like to appearing completely human. They are the most populous race in Otherworld, but the least organised. They all have a somewhat predatory nature and feed off of the human populous in some way, either directly or indirectly. Each class type/class of demon has their own characteristics and weaknesses, so you will have to specify in your profile. However, all demons will die from beheading and are weak against holy powers. As a demon, since there are no powers automatically associated with the race, you will be allowed 3 special abilities.

The Fair Folk (Faye, Sprites, and Other Nature Spirits):
This too, is a populous and varied race. You will have to specify what type of fairy as well as their characteristics in your skeleton.

The Faye folk are spirits of nature and magic. A proud people, they generally despise the other races of Otherworld and live in a separate part of it called simply "The Vale." There is a king and queen, but they will not feature in the RP at this time. They are fond of beautiful things and the arts, especially music. Mortals are generally regarded as amusements and playthings among the populace. Although there are some who outright despise them, or love them...like a glutton loves a fine steak.

They cannot directly lie, but will twist words to suit their needs. They also cannot break a bargain, but are only required to fulfill it to the letter and not necessarily the meaning or intent. All fay folk are weak against iron, witch hazel, and some holy and dark powers.


Special Humans:
All humans, gifted or otherwise, are born in the Mortal World.

Exorcists, Hunters, and Slayers:
•Exorcists:
Are any humans who use holy powers to banish or slay supernatural creatures. They are most typically of a religious nature. They will be allowed 1 special ability which should suit their profession.
•Hunters and Slayers:
These terms are used interchangeably to refer to any human that hunts supernatural creatures. Some are from families that specialize in this, others are born with special abilities pre-ordain them for this profession, and still others are ordinary humans that took it upon themselves to become a hunter. As a hunter or a slayer, you will be allowed 1 ability to aid you in your hunt.


Witches, Warlocks, and Psychics:
Psychics:
Humans who have been born, for whatever reason, with supernatural senses or abilities that they control with their minds. Telepaths, Precogs, Pyrokinetics, Mediums, and Clairvoyants all fall into this category. They are quite human though, and cannot maintain the abilities in the way a demon or fay could. Overuse can have severe negative affects on their person, depending on their skill level. If you character is psychic, they may have 1 primary ability and 1 secondary ability that is slightly less developed than the other.


Witches and Warlocks:
Humans born with a spark of magic, who through study and practice have developed it into something greater. They have naturally a stronger perception of the supernatural and may even be able to see or create portals into Otherworld. Unlike psychics, they typically must use items, spells, or potions when using their abilities. While this is not always the case, attempting to use magic without a medium to channel it usually produces...well, less than satisfactory results. In this world magic does not come easy, it requires time, knowledge, focus, and preparation.

I am allowing those who choose to be witches the most freedom. Instead of an ability, you have 1 or 2 specialties. These will determine the type of magic you know. Possible specialties are Elementalist, Summoning, Herbalogy, Healing, Potions, Necromancy, etc. You get the idea. Just remember you are limited by the characters knowledge of spells, how much energy they have, and what items they have on them, and, well, their very human vulnerability.


Other:
If there is a race or type of human not listed and you wish to play it, PM me with the specifics and we will discuss it. I can't guarantee I will allow it, but I will try to be flexible. :3

Races that will NOT appear here:
Elves, Dwarves, Merfolk, Angels, Aliens, Robots, Cyborgs, and I think you get the idea.
