Rules are simple
1) Follow and adhere to site rules
2) Have fun

Please allow your posts to be at least 25 words each or more.

Humans, Vampires, Hunters and Slayers....where do you fit in? In a world where no mortal is safe, where Vampires good or bad are not treated with respect, who will be the dominating race? Will one rise above the others, or will they come together surviving in a world that has no rules? Will Vampires and human act as one against the Hunters and Slayers? Will slayers turn on one another or fight alongside humans against all the undead? Can vampires really masquerade as a human to fit in?

The story last left off when Dracius was after absolute power. He would stop at nothing to kill any human, Vampire, or slayer alike to succeed in what he was doing. Working together; Alaric, Zeke, and Miyu were able to ward him off. Thinking they had defeated him, they tried to return to a normal life. Or as normal would have it. Meanwhile, Dracius regained his power slowly and is seeking to extract revenge on those that thought to have sealed him away for good. When he destroys them and all they stand for, he plans to take on the human race and become the dominating ruler of all races left on the world.

How will this unstoppable force be taken down? Can he be taken down again? When will he make himself known to everyone once he completely regains his old former glory and what are his plans for Alaric, Zeke, Miyu, and anyone who joins their side?

Races in this world are simple. Human, Vampire, or Slayer. Humans have no power and are like you and me. Vampires have different powers, no two vampires are exactly alike. Some may have the ability of flight, while others, a form of magic that are balls of energy used in fighting. Many vampires have the ability of healing, but with any gift a Vampire has, it will also drain them of energy. They must use their abilities sparingly. Slayers are humans that have banned together and learning what they can from books and various source of knowledge how to slay vampires. Using tools they make, find, or buy. A very very rare occurrence however has triggered a genetic disorder and created a uniquely rare slayer known as a Hunter. Hunters can easily track and sense Vampires. They are born into a world of fighting. Only 1 has come into existence thus far. If you wish to be a Hunter, please ask in this casting call. I Only need two and one has been made and is awaiting someone to take contol oh him.


Now, it is time. Whose side will you fight on?

Characters can be good, evil, or neutral. Does not have to be specified in profile, but will become known as the story moves along

You may choose below for one of the important roles in the rp. If you do not wish to be one of them, or if they are all taken, then you may make your own character. We will start when all the roles are filled and then some. If there are any questions regarding this rp, please IM me thank you.
______________________________

Cast of Existing Characters: *note these have to be filled for the rp to begin. Once these roles are taken, we may start the rp. If you do not like the roles here, feel free to make your own character up. Also note, yours doens't have to be as detailed as these ones are, I jus made them this way since I have thought hard about the rp itself. The last two characters posted, Miyu and Giddian, are the two I shall be playing. The remaing ones are the ones I need to be filled. Thanks!

Name: Alaric
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Race: Hunter
Weapons: Two Holy guns crafted by himself and a silver switchblade with intricate designs.
History: Alaric has hunted vampires since his family was brutally slaughtered by the Master Vampire, Dracius, and his vampire comrades. Enraged that they left him alive out of everyone, Alaric sought revenge by eliminating troublesome vampires of the city. Though the problem was… he couldn’t remember that Dracius was the murderer. Alaric’s long term memories have been blocked off by a mysterious mental wall in his cerebral cortex. He can only remember a glimpse of the murder scene. Otherwise, he can recall all events from the past ten years. It was not enough to help him, though. So he lived day by day as a Hunter, killing vampires and not thinking twice about it… until he came face to face with Dracius himself.
Personality: On the outside, Alaric looks like a cold hearted killer… which he really is when you think about it. But he also has a more kind and gentle side to him. He hates killing needlessly and prefers to be threatened before drawing his guns. Though he has 'tunnel vision' when fighting (if it involves a worthy opponent) and will not stop until someone is dead… even if it’s him. Otherwise he is quiet natured, stern, and very protective towards Miyu and Zeke.
Appearance: Tall (approximately 6’2”) with a lean build. His skin is not pale for being a night owl… rather a light tan. Jet black hair falls past his ears, but not quite to his shoulders. However it is long enough to be pulled back in a small ponytail. Alaric’s eyes are a deep brown with an occasional glint of blue (which often appears as a slight glow). He wears black pants with a white shirt under a knee length black jacket. His Holy guns are usually in two black, leather holsters attached to a belt around his waist. There is hardly ever a smile on his face, unless he is with his comrades.
Weaknesses: Being a true blooded Hunter, Alaric is often preyed on by numerous vampires… vampires that seek the immense power only to be obtained by draining a Hunter dry. He was also bitten twice by Dracius, but did not 'turn.' The affects of these bites, however, are still unknown.
_____________________________________
Name: Zeke *note, there is a small love intest between him and Miyu*
Gender: Male
Age: 35
Race: Ex-Dryad
Bio: Was sent to a village at a certain time to watch over a child as he grew. The child was a Hunter by birth, and Zeke was supposed to protect him. Dracius came along one night and fighting Zeke, caused him to fail. The childs entire family was killed, but the boy survived. His name was Alaric. Feeling guilty at having been defeated, Zeke ran off for many years. When he heard Alaric was a young man now, He left his people, The Dryads, which at the time were a very powerful type of wizard, and became mortal. He found Alaric and after having followed him and staying with him, Zeke finally broke down and reviled what happened. Now he pledges his allegiance to Alaric and is standing by his side forever.
Appearance: Zeke is a bit on the short side. 5'5. He has short Brown Hair that hangs below his ears slightly indicating a haircut might be in need. He keeps it combed though but not slicked back or anything so it constantly drifts in the wind. He has vivid blue eyes that are always a clear color like that of ice. He wears a leather jacket that covers a black shirt. The shirt has a design on it that has all but worn off and looks to be a skull and crossbones. He wears jeans with frayed ends, and black and white sneakers.
Weapons: A long sword.
Personality: He blames himself still for Alaric’s loss and is a very kind person who is loyal to his friends. He would sacrifice himself if he could to set things right. Although troubled by the past, he is a decent fighter. Sometimes though he is quick to upset and that throws rage into his fights making his skills lessen in a battle. When this happens, he doesn't realize it and will continue to fight until critically injured.
___________________________________________

Name: Dracius
Age: Unknown
Race: Master Vampire
Appearance: Once thought to be handsome, his appearance took a turn for the worse after he fought Zeke, Alaric, and Miyu. His grey hair is straggly and falls in waves to his mid back. The skin of his face is tight and stretches over his skull like worn leather. His body is inhuman and thin. The only thing that remains the same is his glowing, yellow eyes. Fear the eyes that shine in the darkness…
Personality: An arrogant, power craving mad-man that cares nothing for the living. He will kill anyone and anything that stands in his way. He is a born fighter and has only lost one battle. He intends to rise again and bring vampires to rule over any remaining humans that survive the uproar and enslave all the opposing vampires. A ruthless vampire, he is often called the midnight Plauge as that is his favorite hour in which he hunts.
History: Since he first roamed the earth, Dracius has craved one thing. Power. As a Master Vampire, he is already a high-status figure in the world of evil. He has a large legion of followers that are nothing more than his puppets. What power he had then was not enough. He wanted more. Upon hearing that Hunters can bring immense power, Dracius began his own 'hunt.' He targeted Alaric, but faced many difficulties in obtaining the Hunter's blood (some nearly cost him his life). He is waiting now. Waiting for the 'defenders' to make their next move… waiting to see who will join them… he knows vampires, slayers, and hunters alike could band together. Meanwhile, he will spread evil in his own ways…

Here are my two!

Name: Giddian. *played by CountryTwilight83*
Gender: Male
Age: 29
Race: Slayer
Bio: Many years ago, he had followed a set of vampires to a village. There he was able to kill one of them. The second, A female managed to get away . She glared at him with eyes full of hate and revenge. He heard her sore on her Lifemates grave that he would die by her hands. He now is in search of her for a new trophy....her fangs.
Apperance: Giddian is a very tall person. He has broad shoulders that make him seem a bit more intimidating than most people his size. His red hair sticks out aginst the dark night and he is easy to spot and many vampires already know this so they know how to avoid him as best as they can. His eyes stick out aginst the color of his hair and are like almost an emerald green. He wears a white t-shirt that always seems to be white, almost as if it never gets stained. It also bulges where his muscles show through. He wears a pair of black pants. That seem almost as dark as the midnight hour itself. He also wears sneakers.
Weapons: Silver sword with crosses etched in the blade
Personality: A very ruthless person. He has killed many people and although he doens't brag, he might let it be know to the person who he is going to kill that he is a big time slayer. He will never give up in a battle unless it looks like there might be a chance he could lose. Then he would go all out and fight dirty just to make sure he would win. He will fight till death without thinking of the consequnces though, even if a crowd has surrounded him and the fighter where a stander by might could get hurt he would not even stop then. He often goes and looks for fights. He will provoke people into fights as well.
____________________________________

Name: Miyu Jade *played by CountryTwilight83*
Race: Half Vampire-Half Human
Age: Unknown, but appears 22
Gender: Female
weapons: a kitana and battle spheres. The battle spheres are small balls of energy ranging in a variety of color. She does not rely on them often, and uses her kitana most of the time.
History: Miyu Jade was born a half vampire, Miyu faced many trials not only from humans and hunters, but from her own kind as well. A half-breed, Miyu almost ended her life a few times unsuccessfully till she met Lucien. A life mate at last, Miyu settled back into life. Years would pass till one day a hunter had come and killed Lucien. Miyu escaped barely and hide out in a small compound. Alaric then came into her life as a Hunter. Wanting to destroy her as she was a vampire, he found she was not what he had expected and learned that she was not a killer. Making friends, Miyu and him set out to destroy Dracius as he attempted to take control. Together with the help of Zeke they defeated him once.
Personality: Quiet, Miyu is hard to anger unless some one brings up the past. She is still looking for the slayer that killed Lucien, but at the same time had took a vow not to kill humans. It was a promise she made to Lucien as he lay dying in her hands. The only reason she would kill anyone is if it was Dracius or one of his minions. She has however, become determined that if she does see the one slayer he will die.
Appearance: Miyu is a very tall and slender person. She is often seen wearing a dark black robe that covers her entirly and drifts the the ground. The only part it doesn't cover are her sandled feet as if it where to go anyfurther, she would trip. She keeps the hood up on it constantly so her face remains hidden most of the time. Her skin is pale so it pops out aginst the dark fabric of her robes. Her vivid green eyes often change color. When she is extremely happy they would turn a blue color and when enraged, they turn a firece red color. Her hair is midnight black, it almost matches the color of the robe she wears but the difference is the robe is actually one shade lighter. Her lips are a pale red color that match the dullness of her pale face.
Weakness: She can not stand cold temperatures, and like many vampires, crosses and holy water.

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have!
 
yes you may! No more hunters can be made now. So its first come first serve on Alaric as he is the only remaining hunter left!
 
Interesting!! Would like to participate if it is okey. How bout a Hume. A vamp thats trying hard to be human but without the weaknesses of vamps. Sort of an odd woman out? I can develope the character and post the stats here or if you prefer in a private message .
 
ooc: is their anything specific for a hunter you want? likedo you have a name or can i do it all myself?
 
Mystic, that sounds really cool. Have fun creating it, and you cn post here as this is for the characters and plot twists we might want to use.

rengadeirishman, Nope, you can either take the premade one I have named Alaric, or you may completly make your own up. Just be sure to include his stengths and weaknesses.

Note to all Any character will alwyas have at least one weakness and at least one strength without them, your character is either to weak or to strong. If you are having trouble, please feel free to ask for help!
 
Hey, I thought this story sounded like alot of fun. If there's something wrong with the bio I made, please let me know.

Name: Gabriel
Gender: Male
Age: 235
Race: Vampire
Bio: By all standards Gabriel was raised in a normal environment. A loving family, a nice house in a nice little town, and a promising future as a farmer. It all changed, however, on one fateful night when his family farm was attacked by a group of blood-hungry vampires. Gabriel watched scared and angry as his family was slaughtered one by one, his mother, father, brother and sisters. They were all killed in front of him, but when the lead vampire came to finish off Gabriel, he struck out against his attacker. The vampire was impressed with Gabriel's courage and dedication. Because of the bravery he'd shown the vampire turned Gabriel instead of simply killing him. Gabriel soon came to find that this was no ordinary vampire. His name was Dracius and he had plans for this world. Plans of domination, a reign of blood terror that only he could controll. For many years Gabriel stood by Dracius' side as his right hand. But soon Gabriel began to see Dracius for what he truly was, and what his plans REALLY entailed. Gabriel began to see that the power that Dracius wanted was too much. Gabriel broke away from Dracius and turned to the one man he knew could help him defeat Dracius. The one man he had, for so many years, been taught to hate. Alaric.
Appearance: Gabriel stands at 6,4" with a muscular build. His hair is a dark brown andon the longish side that goes past his ears . Gabriel has piercing ice-blue eyes that seem to almost glow at night. Although he is over 2 centuries old Gabriel only has the appearance of a 26 year old man. He wears all black with a long black overcoat. His skin pale, due to the lack of sunlight. Gabriel's trade mark physical feature is the tattoo of a large Angel across his back.
Weapons: Gabriel rely's on his superhuman vampire strenght for the most part, but he carries a spring loaded silver blade that shoots out from under his sleeve.
Personality: Gabriel had been a fun-loving, funny, charming man before he was turned into a vampire. Now he is serious and is a man of few words. His face rarely showing any emotion. Gabriel is a smart and ruthless man, almost never showing mercy. His cunning wit and apptitude for fighting is what has kept him alive for so long.
 
Cecillia

Let me know if this is what ya want!

Name: Cecillia
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Race:Hume (a vampire trying to conceal herself as a human)
Strengths: Cecillia isnt your normal vamp. She has the ability to do a variety of things involving magic. Almost as if she were a sorceress. She has the same abilities as most vamps. She can levitate, has the ability to heal, she can also predict things that have or are going to happen.

Weaknesses: Normal vamp lore does not apply to her. She can walk in the sun, and loves going to confession. Her one weakness is her in ability to control her blood hunger.

Bio:Cecillia's parents worked for Dracius centuries ago and brought her into the world as a gift. She felt she could break away from the past hidden under her mind living normally. She had few friends and was often known to wander restlessly the world over. She is looking for completion but seeks to find it in the arms of humans and vampires alike. Her appearance is a little daring being 5'9 and a sleek 125 pounds. Her red hair is adorned with various ribbons of blonde and black and her green eyes allow her to see in the dark farther and better than most cats. She is a prowler. She hunts by sense and smell. She lives alone. Her fearlessness lets her do as she wishes, her weakness however, limits her ability to remain in control. She was blessed many many years ago by a wandering priest from Tibet and has been able to walk about in the day as well as at night. She smells others like her and has on occasion tasted their life. Most often she uses her female charms to feed. Her one goal in life? Finding the source.
 
Let me know if this works:

Name: Alexandria "Dria" St. James

Age: 155

Race: Vampire

Strengths: A skilled fighter she has kept up with modern weaponry and has deadly aim with knives or firearms. She can heal minor wounds and can produce small fireballs.

Weaknesses: All the usual for a vampire plus her ability to produce fireballs drains her of energy leaving her weak and in need of rest so she uses them only as a last ditch escape method.

Appearance: Tall and willowy, Dria has a body most ballet dancers would kill for and all the grace of a born hunter. Curly balck hair tumbles to the middle of her back and frames a face that is both haunting and beautiful. Violet eyes can mesmerize her prey, but only in the way that all beautiful women have, and are framed in long, thick lashes as dark as her hair. Her soft lips are a startlingly dark shade of red in her pale skin and the best description she's heard was that they reminded a poet of blood dripped on snow. If she dressed the part she would be the quintessential image of a female vampire except for the tatto of a pheonix wrapping around her right arm, the bright reds and golds of the ink a stark contrast to her alabaster flesh.

Bio: Born into an abusive household Dria began to develop her fighting skills long before she crossed paths with a vampire. She was already skilled with knives and had the instincts of a naturally born hunter when she was found. She never did catch the name of the vampire that turned her and that never bothered her. He'd given her the means to avenge herself on those that had hurt her and eternal life and youth to boot.

Personality: She's been around long enough to know that taking yourself too seriously leads to boredom and so she laughs often and lives to have fun. She has the grace and skill of a jungle cat when she hunts but she never kills except in self defense. Most of her prey simply go home feeling woozy and hung over but with no evidence of where her fangs sank into their bodies since she heals them all. Ultimately selfish and solitary by nature she lives to please herself and is less than happy with the rumors that do reach her of this Darius person seeking power only because it risks exposing her.

is someone playing alaric?

if not i'm interested.
 
Last edited:
Yes, Alaric is still open! Now we need to fill the roles of Draicus and Zeke. Just a small note, Zeke and Miyu like each other but have not admitted it to each other nor them selves.
 
I'd be interested in playing Dracius, but a word of warning, my work schedule is hellish and hectic. Thusly, I post when I can.
 
oh yeah does alaric have any other type of weapons that he's proficient with besides pistols?
 
Mantra, Thats ok. As long as you make posts, its cool.

Donsehan, when the charater was first made, no. However, you may give him another if you wish.
 
Hey all, thanks for the nod of approval country!! Like Mantra my work schedule is crazy but i try to at least check and post once or twice a week. Again cant wait to get started. :nana:
 
Me neither! Let's get started so I can take over the world and stuff! :D
 
Alright, I will post a new thread to begin. I'll get part of the setting set up, and just join in. There is still a sopt open for Zeke. But untill then, I will play him or if someone would rather have Giddian, thats kool to. I just don't know how well I can play three characters.

Anyway, Giddian or Zeke is up for grabs. Join in when you can, I hope you all have fun!
 
If nobody comes forward to play them, can I kill em instead???? :D :devil:
