Allen Hathaway, Witchspawn
24 / Aquarius / 6'8" / Blonde, Blue Eyes
Gender-Complicated Transfemme / She/Theirs/His

"Don't look too long, don't you know he's the witchspawn?
He'll be playing tricks on your eyes, long after he's gone"

TW: Parental abuse, homicide, drug use, addiction

Melissa Hathaway wanted only the best for herself. She was, unfortunately, the societal stereotype of a witch- A genuinely cruel and selfish woman practicing the dark arts for the sake of self-gratification. She spent many years living in a small town, refining her magic day in and day out; She made herself appear eternally youthful, transformed inedible refuse into fine food, and even learned how to manipulate small creatures to do her bidding, among other things.

When it came time that she decided she was to have a child, she wanted the best for them, as well; Though only to serve as a reflection of herself that would suit her vanity.

She quickly crossed out any idea of having a child with a normal human being. She considered all of humanity to be her adversary; A network of ignorance which serves to snuff those of 'true power' out, so they may continue to toddle about their meaningless lives without fear of what could be better, smarter, stronger than them. She ultimately decided to summon a powerful spirit and bear it's child.

She was foolhardy enough to do this because she assumed that any spirit would understand her worthiness and strength as she did; What she did not realize is that her wreckless use of magic was creating such an imbalance that the material plane in her town was growing indented; Left unattended, this dent threatened to rupture several planes and mix them. This threatened a headache for everyone involved- Several spirits included.

So when Melissa summoned a spirit and demanded a child, "So marvelous that all it's visions become reality, that it's every dream becomes real", this request was taken disastrously literal.

At first, when Allen was only a newborn, the disturbances were small. Bottles would float into their crib as they dreamt, the lights would switch on, the carpet would ruffle as though an invisible infant were crawling around on the floor. But as he grew older, and his dreams complexified, chaos would ensue every night that he slept. Melissa had to bolt and screw furniture down throughout the entire house when she became old enough to walk, for bookshelves began to topple over in the night.
Rather than offer Allen ways to cope or attempting to provide some meaningful solution, Melissa's rage and denial of responsibility in the situation goaded her into punishing Allen for unintentionally causing havoc in the night; When her spells had no effect on Allen, she turned to shouting and isolation.
Allen's peculiarity remained a secret to the town- Before she hit puberty. The chaos and loneliness of her upbringing manifested dreams of absolute turmoil closer and closer to every night that she slept, which grew ever sparser. Dreams of great storms would conjure freak winds of upwards of 100 miles per hour and douse the landscape in a layer of water despite the lack of rain or clouds; People would wake up to the furniture in their house mysteriously and sloppily rearranged with no sign of forced entry.

This drove the cycle ever further, with their mother's reactions worsening as the nature and influence of their dreams did, which drove the situation further to it's breaking point.

Allen dreamt of her aged mother strangled at her hands.
Allen awoke to this reality.

Allen dreamt that she awoke to an empty town.
Allen awoke to this reality.

Allen spent a couple years living without a home, wandering alone between forests and small towns, keeping himself safe at night through the web of chaos manifested by his dreams.

Eventually, she joined a community of homeless supernaturals living in a secluded area of forest twenty minutes away from a minor city. While these people showed her more kindness than she'd ever known in her sixteen years, they also exposed her to the world of substances.

Admittedly, many of them were helpful, if only because they either helped her stay awake or wiped out her ability to dream, but her heavy use did her no favors emotionally or psychologically. Though she managed, through some miracle and through controlled moments of dream magic, to function just enough to eventually move into her own apartment and make an income, she struggles with virtually every aspect of her life. She frequently goes for days without eating or sleeping and oscillates between intense depressions and periods of technicolor tornado-conjuring glory.

Despite the whirlwinds of struggle she's entrenched in, Allen is remarkably kind and caring. Though not always in the right mind to be attentive to others, she's nearly maternal when she is. Because she also has the uncanny ability to visually perceive others as they perceive themselves, she can find opportunities to connect with others that most could not.

Allen enjoys long periods of alone time, stimulants, creating artwork, fashion, birds, thunderstorms, and bugs. Allen dislikes crowds, sleeping close to people, bars, and the inner city in general. She is phobic of mold and sleeping on clear nights.

𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓲𝓼 𝓗𝓪𝓿𝓮𝓷 𝓛𝓸𝓻𝓻𝓪𝓲𝓷𝓮

Halo | "DAMAGE" | Demonic Symbiote

Girl/She/Her(s) | 25yrs | Lesbian | Former Actor turned Activist
6'1" | 175lbs | Silver Hair |Ice Blue Eyes | Muscular Build | Caucasian/Latina
​

𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓗𝓪𝓵𝓸...

Appearance:

Halo is a big girl complete with muscles, moxie, and a murderers aura about her. The scowl on her face seems permanently engraved there. The only makeup she wears is the kohl and black mascara around her piercing icy blue eyes but some times she will wear dark lipstick or lipliner. She has tattoos that nearly cover her back and legs. In particular, she has a tattoo on the back of her neck that becomes a swirling pool of glowing hellish orange and lets out black yet odourless smoke when she uses her powers. Her right arm has several ribbons of Demon's Shadow Steel writhing underneath her skin (sometimes even breaking open) and thus she covers it up with a sleeve or a wrap of some kind.​

She is normally seen wearing pseudo-military outfits, tight muscle-revealing clothes or just plain ol' badass denim, white tee, skater kicks and a red bandanna somewhere on her person. Normally Halo has some kind of weapon on her person (not that she really needs it). It is a comfort item from her days as an activist (extremist). Right before she shifts into her Devastator form she will hold the weapon to her temple or neck in a motion of self-harm.​

---​

When she shifts into her alternate form, blackened steel ribbons erupt from her body, consume her and she grows into the supernatural monster known as "The Devastator. This demonic form is a solid mass of black writhing steel ribbons; a giant humanoid with a massive tail over 10ft tall and 1000lbs. She has blazing hellfire orange eyes and casts no shadow. Those who are sensitive to the supernatural will hear the screams and wails of countless souls the Devastator has claimed over the millenia as she rages onward.​

There was a time when she was all smiles, laughs and hugs. Then came the nicer clothes and new look set for stardom. The smiles they shone and poses were sweet for the cameras. But those times have ended. Now people see her only as she wants them to; a force to be recokoned with. And sadly this is not an act nor facade. She has made union with the sinister dark that resides within.​

---

DAMAGE'S Powers :

Super strong, super fast, and she can fly too. Supernatural pitch black energy eminates from her. The mortals all have reason to fear her and that monster of which she can no longer live without. The pact is complete and the union between the two cannot be separated. The Devastator is as muich she as it is Halo.​

​

Demon's Shadow Steel​

These are the multitudes of writhing midnight steel ribbons that make up the body of the Devastator form. Its entirety is a weapon in a fight: blades, tendrils, spikes line her kicks, punches, slashes, tail slaps, body slams. The material is not of this world and if one is actually able to get close enough and has a supernatural affinity may be able to see that each ribbon has runes and symbols on it. There are theories that Halo may take on other forms other than the tailed demon form but so far she is limited to this form. This material casts no shadow and in the dark she melts into the blackness and all you will see is her hellish orange eyes.​

Otherworldly Energy​

She is a supernatural powersource all her own and needs no refuelling. In her human form she may fly, see in the dark and may unleash Shadow Steel ribbons to whip, strike or wrap up opponents up to 100 ft away. The Devastator form has no need for long range and she would rather get a rush from chasing down and rending opponents lifeless up close. In this form she does have a proper Demonic Soul Gaze that allows her to see in any kind of Darkness and such a gaze strikes unbearable fear in regular mortals and weak willed opponents causing them to panic and flee.​

Combat Mastery​

She is an accopmlished close-combat fighter who has sought out particular individuals to train with. But all in all she is a vicious striker with a killer ground game. In her demon form, it all comes together as her whole body becomes a juggernaut weapon.​

​

Weaknesses: ​

- | Language Barrier - can only speak Hellish language in Devastator form. Even if screaming as loud as possible, non-supernatual sensitives will only hear a soft whisper.​

- | Angellic Powers - she is still very durable but this opposing force is capable of harming her. Her eyes are particularly vulnerable to Radiant light.​

- | Tunnel Vision - in her Devastator form she will focus in on a sole target and will damage or destroy things, harm or even kill living beings around her without realizing... or caring.​

- | Blood Lust - the entity that she has made a pact with demands that souls must be taken or her own soul burns instead.​

- | Battle for control - This is a symbiotic relationship and the Devastator cannot help but also cow to Halo's emotional needs and may falter in fights due to Halo's thoughts and feelings.​

​

---

Persona:​

+ | Badass - Big, strong, and has that imposing presence. There are those that have that kind of gaze that can shoot daggers with the best of them; this girl's gaze shoots mortar shells. She does as she says and will always follow through. Not necessarily the most graceful but the execution of her acts will raise eyebrows and even drop jaws. The twinkle in the ice blue eyes and the smirk means its about to go down.​

+ | Work-Ethics - Whatever she does, she gives it her all and will do the job well and get it done. She does more than chastize lazy people; you best get off your ass and do some hardwork too. She has been training all her life to have her star rise higher than her mom and dad. And what she aims for now is for real and for keeps.​

+ | Dependable - she says she gonna do something, you best believe she will. You ask a favour, the girl comes through, no doubt. No matter what whether, what the danger, whatever the hell may come she will come through. This is not about loyalty. Loyalty can be bought. This is about pride. And respect.​

​

- | Damaged - Big girl, big heart, big hurt. Being like a huge puppy and with a streak of aiming to please, she had always gotten hurt by others when younger. But that has all changed. Bad people made bad things happen to a good girl. Now she is the one who will do bad things back to the bad people. You hurt her, it comes back on you 1000% [/I][/B]​

- | Mother's Daughter - she was following the pattern set by her mother and her mother's mother before her. Strive for excellence as an actor in 'the Industry' no matter the cost. Push forward, but push others away. Never lose your place in line as your star rises, no matter even if you lose yourself along the way. Halo has lost herself. Damage is there to make it better.​

- | Weight of the World - Not necessarily that she took on the responsibility of all that she did to positively affect others, but she did get crushed by the weight of feeling like she should never, ever let anyone down. So when things go wrong for her, she is lain flat and it is hard to pull her out from a downward spiral. So she turns to the one thing that has helped her so many times now; violence.​

​

​

Backstory (All the extremist group stuff will be revealed IC'ly):

​

Damage is the 'miracle daughter' of the Lowry-Linden family. No matter the treatment or technique, it took years for her parents to conceive. But finally they got their wish. And they would make all their darling 'miracle daughter's' dreams come true... whether or not she wanted those dreams or not.​

~Haven Lorraine Lowry-Linden. Dad was an out-of-work stunt co-ordinator and mom was a struggling aging actress in Wollyhood. But by combining their skills and using their industry connections, they both knew they could build a childhood star. It started off of course with marketablility. And so the girl only went by her first 2 names and dropped the last name that associated her to her D-list parents. Soon enough, the girl caught fire after her first big break as the face of the anti-virus software that flooded all the ToBeYou commercials as the demon-fighter 'Angelcakes.' She became a meme and suddenly after discovering her name was Haven-Lorraine, people went full ham and started calling her 'Halo.'​

In the other half of her 'dreams coming true,' her size and skill started to show out as a young MMA athlete and caught on in some tourneys and circuits. The wins began to rack up, and albeit only in a cluster of nearby cities, the wins were turning heads. People that knew her but wanted to cut her down started to chant out 'Damaged.' In highschool it was a derogatory term due to her rep and 'highlight reel' of her greatest fails on social media. Her classmates knew her as 'Damaged Goods.' But there were those who cared for her and loved her and would never let her down when she needed her the most. They took that negative and made it into a positive. They were the ones that had the whole arenas chanting: "Let's go DAMAGE! Let's go DAMAGE!" to support their girl. She would never forget them for that highlight moment in her life.​

Never forget them... but she could leave them behind.​

Her mother and father pushed her hard to raise her stock and make her a Wollyhood star and then came the day she got the call. She was casted for the full first season of a Nexflit show. She and her family booked a flight for the coast and never looked back. They never even came back to pack up the rest of their things when their house sold; Halo was running up so much bank they even gave away their car.​

Then came the day of the scandal. Halo was outed as a Supernatural. Rumours had it that her parents made a deal-- a daemon pact-- and bought fame and fortune for their daughter. But regardless, Halo went into hiding. And Halo did some very bad things during that time. She did Damage. And a lot of it too.​

And it is only now that she has resurfaced years later seeking out her childhood friends. They were the ones that she swore, upon the afterlife itself, that she would always be there for them. They were the ones that made her feel worthy of being more than the name Damage and never once did they make her feel like damaged goods. They were the ones she swore that she would never forget.. but the very same ones she could leave behind.​

She looks nothing like the movie-star wannabe like she did back then; she looks like a wicked girl possessed. But still... Halo is here now. She needs them now like how she did back then but even more than she knows.​

She seeks a better world where the rights of 'her kind' will no longer be trampled upon.​

But for this better world to exist, a revolution must take place. As it always was with Halo, it is all about Pride and Respect.​

Then again, pride and respect can only take Halo so far to change this world. It takes Damage to break down the barriers set before her kind. She can only bring violence for the revolution and blood will be shed. She is but a weapon without aim and the proper kind of ammo.​

​

Her childhood friends can bring her that target to aim at proper and load that weapon with something more powerful than violence.​

​

Hope.​

𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓲𝓼 𝓥𝓮𝓻𝓸𝓷𝓲𝓬𝓪 𝓗𝓮𝓻𝓷𝓪𝓷𝓭𝓮𝔃

Ronni | "Gripper" | Cured Demon Vessel

Girl/She/Her(s) | 28yrs | Lesbian | "PS Hounder" - Special Agent Hernandez
5'7" | 130lbs | Chestnut Hair |Hazel Eyes | Toned Build | Latina/Caucasian​

𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓡𝓸𝓷𝓷𝓲...

Appearance:

Ronni is a sleek girl whose body movements reflect her inner being. Smooth, silky and catlike with big eyes taking in her surroundings without much head bobbing. Or when anxious, angry or suspicious she is sneering, glowering and body wound up and ready to pounce. She has a casual 'meh-pretty-enough' look that errs on the side of natural coloured make-up, if she wears any at all. Long chestnut hair is always brushed, braided or blowing free in the wind. She has ears, tongue, navel and hood pierced but only one tattoo. Ronni's lone tattoo is on the back of her neck yet it is covered up with a luminous disc made of strange, rippling stone.​

Clothes are just functional to her and only meant to keep a body covered and warm. And so she does not care for wearing the latest trends or fashion. Sweats, workout gear, plain tees will do. If anything, she'd rather strut around in her flashy riding gear or in just underwear only really. The only items she is constantly collecting is eyewear. Whether glassess, VR goggles or AR HUD helms, she loves to switch it up and is always found wearing some kind of eyewear during downtimes. As a law enforcer, she wears the normal body armour and armaments of a moto-riding PS Hounder.​

---​

There was a time when she manifested her Supernatural powers and the tattoo on the back of her neck began to bubble black and burn, lighting up like lava as it flowed across her back and shoulders. Smoke rose from the spreading amorphous mass and gave off an odour of burning rock. When transforming into her alternate form, the blackened lava flow from her neck would finally erupt and fully engulf Ronni. Her wails and screams would intertwine with this inner demon and the lava flow continued to rush and grow, consuming her whole and shaping into the hulking and horned demon known as "The Renderer". Once unleashed, the horned demon is a charging four-armed, lava-fleshed monster 8.5 feet tall and over 700 pounds. It stomped around leaving a trail of molten lava in its wake.​

Spoiler: But that Demon is now containted.

She has been awakened as the vessel for the Renderer since the age of puberty, but Ronni has fully taken control over the demon with the help of the enchanted disc melded onto the back of her neck. When she does shift, she is encased in Angellic HeartStone to keep the demon from wreaking its havoc. The hell monster's power is harvested and turned into an energy source for the four-armed HeartStone armour to go to work; she is transformed into "The Sentinel"​

---

GRIPPER'S Powers :

As a law enforcer for the XTC Sector, Ronni has dual Special Agent sidearms, and standard issue: taser, baton, and body armour. Her bike is completely tricked out enhanced armoured chassis and wheels. XTC Sector dual SuperBumbleBee Engines with nitrous boosts. It is armed with regualar ballistic turrets, crowd control grenades and sonic ray weaponry. But it is her HeartStone plate that covers her demonic pact tattoo that gives her her street name: "Gripper"​

​

Angellic HeartStone​

In her human form, the Heartstone disc on her neck allows her to channel the power of the Renderer and make her skin resistant to attacks. She is at least 4 times as strong as a woman of her size and build. She also regenerates at an extremely accelerated rate too.​

​

When enough is enough, she will grow into her Sentinel form; a 8.5 foot tall stone-armoured monster with a glowing green eye. She is nigh indestructable to mortal weapons and resistant to demonic weaponry. Two more stone arms grow from her sides and she becomes an instant grappling beast with a near unbreakable grip. Tireless and superhumanly strong, she is a whirlwind of attacks, parries and counterstrikes in battle.​

Eye of the Earth Mother​

The power of the HeartStone is not from Heaven as many are mistaken; the stone is in fact from the oldest of earth's stone at the very core of the planet. Conflicting studies to the norm show that the energy drawn from the heart of Gaia is antithesis to certain demons of "Hell." Some studies even claim that the HeartStone is produced by Angels trapped(thriving?) in the planet's core. Regardless this Angellic power is the harnessed by the Sentinel and fired out from her singular eye in a Radiant, green-hued blast of energy.​

​

Weaknesses: ​

- | Language Barrier - can only speak Hellish or Angellic Earth language in Sentinel form. Even if screaming as loud as possible, non-supernatual sensitives will only hear a soft whisper (Hellish) or the grinding of stones (Angellic Earth).​

- | Demonic Sabotage - Even though she is in control of the Renderer, it still speaks to her when she uses the powers of the Angellic HeartStone taunting, teasing her trying to break her concentration or to give in to her more violent/wild side.​

​

---

Persona:​

+ | Level-Headed - think first. Always. It's hard to knock this woman off her game. She is a cool stone in the lake regardless of the infernal forest-fire that is her job as a Hounder. No panic, no drama even if everything is falling apart, burning down around her.​

+ | Tenacious Bitch - there is no 'game over' as far as she is concerned. As long as she is still breathing, she will see the game through to the end. How can you not especially when you believe you are the game.​

+ | Public Servant - she wears her badge with pride. It is an honour and duty to be on the side of the law to make sure that people are protected, perps get served and preters get the cure they need and deserve.​

- | Workaholic - all her friends wear badges or are connected to those with the Agency. She is barely seen elsewhere other than the Agency tower. She's there so often that her colleages call her office 'Home Quarters.' Social life: **crickets-crickets** Love life: "Hold my beer..."​

- | My Way or the Highway - yes, she is highly decorated, but is a little too particular on how she likes to have things done. Too much of a lone wolf, the Agency has seen her rotate through partners like a revolving door. Thank everything they finally found someone who can deal with her; a rookie.​

- | Reads Between the Lines - for someone who is held in such high regard by the agency, she is definitely not a by-the-book Agent. Her methods of hounding perps usually have some kind of internal investigation and lots of paperwork to deal with. They have even set aside a budget for fines and legal fees for her 'handling' of Agency code and guidelines. She's not a dirty cop by any stretch but she is quite liberal with the law interpretation game. She believes she is the game afterall.​

​

---

​

Backstory:

Thinking Special Agent Hernandez / Grippers Backstory is best revealed slowly throughout the RP. She and the Agency might end up being big antagonists really...​

​

XTC Sector - Xenomorphic Terrrorist Counter-measures Sector. The Agents are hand picked to deal with Preter-sapients that are known to be dangerous and/or unregistered perpetrators at large.​

So lots of rumours but main catchphrases are things like:
Restructured - basically to "cure" preter-sapients of their "afflictions"
Relocation - this is when apprehended preter-sapients (PS) are usually never seen again in the municipality
Repurposed - when PS's are re-integrated back into society
Restitution - the sentence and how to better serve society for whatever PS's have been convicted.

The tech in this setting is like Westworld and Maniac series so like thinking there is a looooooot of downright bad n invasive mind-bending going on in the XTC Sector. So yeah.... kinda not good to be 'investigated' by Ronni and the Agency (still need a name for the larger body of the Agency that departments like XTC is from).

𝓣𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓲𝓼 𝓞𝓴𝓼𝓬𝓪𝓷𝓪 𝓥.

Oxi | Okscana V. | Repressed Angel

Girl/She/Her(s) | 22yrs | Demisexual | Former Junkie / Dishwasher at Spark the Dark Bar n' Grill
5'5" | 115lbs | Red Hair|Blue Eyes | Normal Build | Mixed Eastern European / SE Asian
​

𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓞𝔁𝓲...

Appearance:

Oxi would be prettier if she was not so withdrawn. She normally wears little make up save for some eyeliner and lip gloss. Some say that she has that 'exotic' face and would look amazing if done up nicely... that and if she smiled with her eyes too. The young woman has a bit of a vampy overbite that is rather cute but she hates it so rarely does she smile with her teeth. Her red hair is closer in shade to brown, but still has amazing highlights that usually show up during summer seasons. Normally she keeps it just past shoulder in length and more often than not she wears a hat with the brim pulled down low.​

She has a decent enough figure but she rarely wears clothes that would even attempt to flatter her modest curves. Baggy and comfy is the key. The only time she really likes to show skin is when she knows certain people she trusts enjoy seeing her tattoo sleeves. But normally she keeps her arms covered to hide the 'tracks' that line them.​

---​

Without her wings, one would be hard pressed to tell that she is an angellic being. She has had them surgically removed and used to inject certain drug concoctions to keep them from growing back and to especially surpress her Radiance. Her disposition and posture also help hide her true nature. Yet small 'familiar' type supernatural creatures still cannot help but be attracted to her due to her parents lineage. So she is normally seen with strays following her or perched somewhere on her body.​

---

Oxi'S Powers :

She has suppressed her Angellic powers in all manner, shape and form.

The only semblance of power she has is the residual effect she has on animals, especially small supernatural ones. They seem to be calm and trust her easily. This does not mean that she can control them or befriend them, however, animals (even wild ones) are much, much less hostile to her in comparison to the others she is with.​

---

Persona:​

+ | Watchful - She likes to know her surroundings and situations she gets into. Its hard for her to be surprised; she does not scare easily and is quite logical in high-tension situations. Being so perceptive keeps her quite even keel and rarely does she freak out.​

+ | Loyal - A good friend that got lost along the way but always kept tabs of whose back she would have. Yes, she is picky about who she trusts, but once she does have your trust, you best know she is one your side. She never asks to be paid back for loyalty but can only hope you have her back too.​

+ | Polite - yes Oxi has been through a lot, but she still remembers to say her pleases and thank yous. She is a believer of paying it forward and good deeds begetting good deeds. Just try to be considerate is her bottom line.​

​

- | Withdrawn - She had been on drugs since her young teen years. She's dropped out of highschool and been on the streets ever since Damage left. To survive, she has taken on crappy situation after crappy situation and became a junkie to cope. It has affected her negatively and she has a very skewed POV on people and the world and so she remains withdrawn. She also does not know how damage she has done to her mental health by suppressing her Preter-Sapient side too.​

- | Uneducated - street smart yes, but that's as far as it goes. Mix that with her always trying to be a nice gal and being a bit dense, she has been scammed and led astray way too many times.​

- | Ends Justify the Means - being a survivor means making decisions that will hurt others despite your best intentions. Sometimes she does not consider what is happening around her, nor does she feel she needs to care, when a goal must be met. Being a survivor means thinking of number one's best interests too​

​

Backstory (NPC so more will be revealed IC'ly):

​

Halo/Allen Backstory Tie-in with Oxi

Halo had already done the whole 'terrorist act' with the extremist group and was laying low. She flees to the city where the homeless group had taken Allen into their forest combine. She goes there because she was tipped off that her close childhood friend Oxi is there. Oxi is on the streets and homeless now.

Okscana manifested as a supernatural during puberty. But sadly to suppress the manifestation, she had her wings surgically removed and went in for 'Restructuring Treatments.' When Halo left, she dropped out of highschool and ran away from treatments. On the streets she fully turned to drugs and became an addict that had to pay to get her fix by turning tricks. Halo managed to track her down and found her in the homeless combine in the woods where Allen once lived too.

Halo took her friend off the streets and in talking with her, Halo learned that Oxi was all about 'Preter-Sapient' Civil rights and the conversation turned to empathy and POV. Change was necessary but it took a Preter-Sapient ability to get such empathy and re-adjust POV to the masses. And this is where the talk of Allen came in.

To persuade Oxi to get off the street Halo proposed that they find this Allen, this 'empathic witch' and figure out how to get them to use their power to make haters, bigots and public officials to change their ways and policies regarding the Supernatural world. Now whether or not Halo meant that, Oxi bought it and they proceeded to track down Allen.

Halo got what she wanted; her friend out of a homeless situation. So instead of finding Allen she was using her connections to find their old friends. But on a search to see how much heat Halo still had, she actually discovered Allen's location. Against better judgement she decided to check in on Allen to get a better sense about Oxi's contact.

They finally meet and what is only meant to be a day or two of recon before moving on, turns into months of hanging out and becoming friends. It's tough because Halo finds it hard sometimes to read Allen and find the lucid moments, but regardless she sticks it out there, if only for her friends sake. Okscana and Halo are roommates in a complex near Allen's building. And they begin to chat about Supernatural Civil rights; there is something about this talk about Civil rights that has her hooked.

But the truth of the matter is that Halo has a secret. When she was searching to see how much heat she still had on her she discovered that Allen's name is on the sweep for 'Preter-Sapients of Interest.' And Allen is a friend. Halo left her friends behind and lost them once upon a time. She will not let that happen again.​

WIP

• Designation: The Twins
• The Siren
• The Naiad
• Four

• 
  
  
  
  Designation: The Twins
  Asset no. 8 and no. 13 form the duo the technicians in D Wing have dubbed "the twins". They are not, in any, genetically related way but the two assets are so eerily similar it is difficult to tell them apart without identification. For the purposes of the following lab tests we will refer to the duo by their asset names; Asset No. 8 = The Naiad, Asset No. 13 = The Siren.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Lab test no. 42
  
  Equipment: asset no. 8, asset no. 13
  
  Variables: Moonlight, water; 3.5% salinity
  
  Results: Today's lab tests with The Twins resulted in no new findings: introduction of water and moonlight to expose both assets' true caste yielded fewer results when only asset no. 8s' true caste in test no. 38. Test ended after 5 minutes of neither asset responding.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Lab test no. 49
  
  Equipment: asset no. 8, asset no. 13
  
  Variables: Water; 3.5% salinity, male lab tech, age 38 equipped with wrench crafted from iron & directed to attack asset no. 8 after two minutes of the test starting, and not to speak to either asset.
  
  Results: No response from either asset no. 8 or 13 until the two minute marker. When male tech started to approach asset no. 8 and raise the wrench to attack asset no. 8 intervene. The Siren spoke but no words were clear; the sound was shrill and high pitched. The male responded to The Siren simply "yes". He turned and walked to the far end of the experimental room and started to hit himself with the wrench methodically without any acknowledgement of pain. Test was ended immediately, asset no. 8 and 13 disabled via spinal chips, however even being disabled The Siren's Voice did not dissipate and the male continued to attach himself. He was apprehended and disarmed, then later placed in a medically induced coma until our medical officers can come up with a treatment to end The Siren's hold.
  
  Further Findings: New sound-proofing in the experimental labs prevented The Siren's Voice from reaching beyond the walls. The Siren's Voice does not carry through recordings or electronics; it cannot be recorded and harnessed in this capacity.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Field test no. 196
  
  Purpose: The Twins first test outside of lab control. First real world test. The Twins are directed to Break and Enter into Vorgol Corps lab and retrieve secret documents regarding new implant technologies from their research division.
  
  Assets: asset no. 8, asset no. 13
  
  Results: The Naiad successfully navigated through the research buildings water pipes in order to determine and exact location for The Siren conduct her search. Time twenty one minutes, no alarms raised. The Siren followed The Naiad's directions to the research lab that most likely contained the research we were seeking. After three minutes of data-mining, the Siren located the required materials, downloaded and exited the research lab. No alarms raised.
  
  Both assets returned to site for debriefing.
  
  Field test later closed as success.

  Special abilities:
  Diomis can use her Voice to compel an individual or group of people to kill themselves. Her Voice cannot be recorded for later use, projected electronically or go beyond the scope of normal human voices.
  
  Background
  Diomis was born to a perfectly human couple, the youngest child of six. The couple were not particularly wealthy and when Diomis came to the age where it was expected of human children to say their first words she was simply mute. They did not have the funds to address their concerns to the couple continued to work with her as much as possible while caring for her older siblings and working full time employment. A year passed, then another and now Diomis was nearing three and still had not spoken a single word. The couple finally found the funds to pay for medical tests to determine if something was wrong with their daughter and have it corrected.
  
  Tests were returned without results, there was nothing physical preventing her from speaking, as far as they could determine but it quickly came to light that Diomis was something more than a simple human child. The parents were quickly led to a consulting room, free of charge by a foundation run by Demsonic Holdings, a Charity program through the hospital for victims of the Supernatural. The parents weren't prepared for what they were told, that their pregnancy had been high-jacked by the fae; that their underhanded and cunning ways had managed to slip this by them a way for the fae to continue their own species. The Charity soon offered a solution for the inconsolable parents: they could turn over the guardian ship of Diomis to the Charity and she would be taken to The Sanctum, Institute for the Humanity Impaired; a wonderful school for the children of fae who had been abandoned by their parents. Here they would be raised and and taught the rights and wrongs of the world and find a decent place in human society where they would be a service to everything.
  
  Her parents signed, tearfully, as they mourned the loss of their child and while they may have had some regrets about not keeping her within their own home these regrets were quickly dismissed as Diomis cried for the first time and the nurses that were ushering the parents out dispatched themselves with whatever they had in their pockets.
  
  Personality
  Diomis is thoughtful and observant however has a short trigger for her temper. Not a great combination for what power she has, she has learned overtime to quell her inner rage and consider her options carefully.

  Background
  Orasea was abandon as a child within days of being born, she did not know who here parents were nor if they are still living. She was first sent to a human orphanage but she was only there for a few days before testing came back and determined that she was not, in fact, human. At this point Desmonic Holdings Charity stepped in and took over custody, bringing her live at The Sanctum, Institute for the Humanity Impaired.
  
  For the first few years of her life she was educated, fed and sheltered at The Sanctum, first living in their nursery before moved to the girls dormitory with dozens of other children like herself. She grew up knowing only this and the other girls but found herself a soulmate and sister in Diomis. The pair were inseparable that the staff at The Sanctum simply referred to them as "The Twins" a nomenclature that remained as they were recruited into working for Desmonic Holdings as operatives. They were first tested to join the operative program when she was eight years old and qualified; at this time they were removed from the girl dormitories and provided with their own private apartments as they started their training in full.
  
  Their education could be considered on par with the elite of the outside world, if she knew what to compare it to, multiple languages, mathematics, politics and problem solving. They were bring groomed to work for Desmonic holdings indefinitely. At least that was until the company went bankrupt and they were released into the world with nothing but what they had learned and what they were wearing.
  
  Personality
  Orasea is quite outgoing, she is quick to love and curious about everything. This often is perceived as her being naive but that is far from the case.

  NOTE:

  "It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another."
• PERSONALITY:
  

  Perun is quiet by nature, he speaks few words but the words he does speak hold much meaning to him and carry a lot of weight to them. For this very reason, he keeps his promises more than others, as if breaking a promise might break a piece of him. Normally he might appear cold and uncaring but that might be because of his expressionless face, for his true self is a caring man who always lends his shoulder for whoever needs it. He lives by a few simple rules that he expresses in many ways, one of which is “Blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family.” which he holds dear to his heart for he does not have any real family, and the few people he can call friends are like a family to him.
  

  
  BIOGRAPHY:
  

  
  Perun Renee is a special case, to say the least for there is no information about him prior to his reawakening at Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela during the Catatumbo lightning storm.
  The only thing he told us after waking up was his full name and what he thought was his age, which was impossible for us to figure out even with blood and DNA tests since according to them it was like Perun was born just a few days ago. He spent a total of three years with us near the lake where he was found going on the lake each night in a tiny boat during the storms, he would get hit by thunder many many times but he would soon return.
  With no injuries to be seen each time, only his hair would change shape into one of an afro. After forging him some IDs and other necessary documents we finalized the studies on this man, lend him some money and he went his own way. Every once in a while I see in the news information about him “Man causes city-wide blackout” or “Man empties all one-armed bandits in the biggest casino in Las Vegas.”
  He even send me a letter this year saying something about “ Buying up a whole building and setting up an internet cafe downstairs, finally decided to settle down. ”
  

  
  SPECIAL ABILITIES:
  

  Electricity absorption, storage, and release. Poison resistance and slowed aging via the use of stored electricity.
  Because of his weird constitution, he cannot be harmed via electricity, being able to even withstand lighting bolts.
  If not enough electricity is stored in his body he will get tired faster and may freeze up at times.

This is what I have for now :

Tobias Morrison

• Age : TBA
• Gender and/or Pronouns : Male
• Sexual and romantic orientation : Bisexual
• Species : Undead
• Appearance (hair, eyes, clothes, height, build, etc) :
  • White, almost translucent hair
  • Dead black eyes
  • Wears a huge coat and large, baggy pants in an attempt to hide as much skin as possible. He also sports gloves and a paper bag that covers his whole head.
  • Fairly short, all things considered
  • Spindly and bony (literally)
• Special abilities (if applicable)
  • Is an undead creature, essentially making him immortal, though he is unable to heal from wounds and consistently rots and decomposes. His only way to repair his own body is to incorporate biomass into himself, one way or another. One way for him to prevent decomposition is to expose himself to an extremely cold environment.
  • Any physical contact with Toby’s body results in infection for any vertebrate - which will typically kill the victim after some time, during which their bodily fluids will be contagious. After the infected die, they are risen once again as Thrawls, which have varying levels of intelligence. Once an infected person has turned into a Thrawl, their biomass can be freely manipulated by Toby, allowing him to use them in order to regenerate while also being able to create abominations of flesh.
  • Toby has a subconscious urge to infect creatures with his virus and spread the virus across as much biomass as possible. The urge functions like a terrible addiction, with physical contact being the drug.
• Background
  • Toby was a normal person living a perfectly average life - when, one day, he died from a car crash. While he was deceased, something strange activated within his own body - a virus of sorts that took over his whole form and reanimated him while he was six feet under the ground. After much struggle, he managed to claw his way to the surface. Fatigued and starving, he had essentially lost his mind, reverting to the state of a mindless monster. Upon infecting a passerby in the streets, consuming their blood, and turning them into a Thrawl, he immediately regained his consciousness, much to his own horror. After properly disposing of the Thrawl in order to prevent further infection, Toby went on the run from the authorities, eventually finding his way to the group.
• Personality
  • Toby is extremely melancholic about his entire existence, mainly due to the ever-present urge to feast on human blood and spread the plague that lives within him. Every day is a constant struggle between his instincts and his conscience. While he hasn’t given in as of yet, his life is essentially devoid of any pleasure he could potentially find, causing him to undergo extreme mental fatigue and cynicism. Ultimately, however, Toby values the few human connections he has left very strongly and will do anything to protect them.

 

[Nightshade98]

Name: Rowan O’Shea
Age: 21
Gender and/or Pronouns: Genderfluid - Pronouns depend on presentation but generally she/they or he/they
Sexual and romantic orientation: Bisexual Panromantic
Species: Fae (Changeling)

Appearance: Rowan's appearance can change on a whim as an aspect of their natural abilities, but they generally don't change too much from a baseline form so that people they know can generally identify them. They generally stand around 5'5 and give themself quite a lithe, athletic buid. They usually have a very androgynous facial structure and frame, with their hair usually worn in a bob cut. While their hair and eye colours change often, they tend to stick to the same skin colour, being a quite pale caucasian. They generally stick to human characteristics but when they're around people they are cofortable with they often like to experiment with things like unnatural hair and eye colours or slightly pointed ears. Like all Changelings Rowan also has what is often known as their "true" form. This appearance is reminiscent of the one they prefer to present themself as but very obviously inhuman. Their skin in this form is unnaturally pale, to the point that it is almost snow white and their ears are fully pointed in the same manner as an Elf or Goblin. Their hair is also white in this form and their eyes are fully white, with no visible pupil or iris. This form has an unnatural, uncanny quality to it, to the point of it being slightly uncomfortable for people to look at, especially humans. Rowan's sense of style is pretty simple, usually sticking to colourful hoodies, graphic tees and jeans. They have a particular fondness for Converse shoes.

Special abilities: As a Changeling, Rowan is a shapeshifter, being able to change their appearance at will, within limits. They can't divert from the more typical humanoid form (bipedal with 1 head, 2 arms, 2 legs, etc.) and their height can only fluctuate by maximum of about a foot. As well as the ability to change their appearance, Rowan also has the baseline abilities common to all Fae, those being biological immortality (doesn't age but can be killed in other ways) and a natural affinity for Fae magic, although to actually cast spells they would still need to have training, which they haven't gone through yet. Their Fae nature comes with weaknesses, however, the main one being to iron. Iron is poisonous to all Fae, with exposure causing weakness and eventual death. The larger the quantity or purer the iron the more deadly it is, with the effect diminishing the more impurities are in the metal or the less percentage of iron is in an alloy. Another weakness, although significantly less deadly, is, ironically, the wood of the Rowan tree. Coming into contact with this particular wood will force a Changeling to transform into their "true" monstrous form.

Background: Rowan was raised by their single mother, their father having left at an early age, as is unsual for Changelings due to a natural distrust and dislike for other members of their own kind. When they were growing up, Rowan's mother held a simple job as a waitress, which wasn't a lot but provided the two of them with just enough to get by, although their mother held dreams of one day becoming a famous actress. Rowan was brought up as a human, without knowing their true nature, as their mother believed that it would be the best way to avoid discrimination and persecution. When Rowan was a teenager, their mother's acting career suddenly took off, and they were suddenly uprooted from their small town lifestyle and thrown into a world of big cities, flashing lights and celebrity. While Rowan was largely saved from the spotlight, a resentment still grew in them towards their mother and this, along with their mother's new frantic work schedule, caused the two's relationship to become increasingly strained. This was only further impounded when their mother eventually revealed their true nature, that they were not human and that their mother had been lying to them about that fact their whole life. This shattered the once close relationship the two had shared, with Rowan for a long time avoiding their mother on the rare occasions that she was home. Eventually however, Rowan saw the need to seek therapy to deal with the complex emotions they were feeling and gradually, with help from a specialist supernatural counsellor, they were able to largely forgive their mother and accept themself for who they were. Whilst they did forgive their mother, however, it was decided that it would be best for them to move out from the environment they were in, and thus they left home. They travelled to a brand new city, finding a nice enough apartment with decent rent and, for the moment, taking a job in a cafe while they figure out what they want to do with theself.
Personality: Rowan presents a face to the world that is very happy-go-lucky, kind and generous almost to a fault and highly naive. True to their Changeling nature however, this masks a deep internal angst and anxiety, constantly second-guessing and judging themself, although this is something they are trying to get over with therapy. Rowan is incredibly friendly and loyal, although they can't help being a little cowardly, far prefering to run and hide from any conflict rather than fighting back and easily giving in rather than standing up for themself. They also suffer from intense imposter syndrome, absolutely sure at times that the people who like them only like them for the fake persona they put on and not the real them. Probably has mommy issues.
Relationships: - Ciara O'Shea - Their mother, a fairly acomplished Hollywood actress who keeps her true nature as a Changeling a well guarded secret. Have been on bad terms for a long while but recently made up again just before Rowan moved out. Insists on sending them a monthly allowance.

Loves/Likes:
- Sweets - especially bubblegum and lolipops
- Animals - anything furry, feathery or scaly will immediately have all of their attention
- Music - genres like hyperpop and pop-punk in particular
- Bright colours - purples and pinks are their favourites
- Tabletop RPGs - constantly trying to get their friends to try D&D
- Dice (the TTRPG kind) - absolute dice goblin
- Trading Card Games - has a natural instinct to collect and will often be collecting multiple different TCGs at the same time before getting bored and moving onto a new one

Hates/Dislikes:
- Bugs - dislikes anything creepy and/or crawly
- Not presenting as their authentic self - understands the need to often not show off their abilities but quickly becomes uncomfortable if they are unable to change on a whim
- Spicey food - absolutely cannot handle it
- Horror movies - not into being scared
- Iron - it hurts, man!
- Bigots - 'nuff said

 

[quinnissocool]

Name
Jon Smith (originally John Jacob Beston).​

He doesn’t mind being called Johnny by people close to him and community members he was raised alongside, but he doesn’t like it when anyone else outside of that does it. Back in his hometown, he was also nicknamed “Johnny Smartass” because he was always getting the top grades in his studies.

Age
33

Gender and/or Pronouns
Male

Sexual and romantic orientation
Straight

Hometown (thought I’d add this):​

He's from a town called Ford Belfort (named after the two founders of the town Job Ford and Michael Belfort) - a town that’s considered by some to be the most anti-supernatural civil rights in the country. This is a title often seen as a bragging right by the town officials.

Species
Werewolf

Appearance (hair, eyes, clothes, height, build, etc)​

He has a tattoo that he can't remove he doesn't want people to see. It's a tattoo on his upper arm he and his brother got at a charity event sponsored by his father's political campaign. It's the logo of the anti-supernatural taskforce put together by his father (A vicious lion with the country flag as its background with the words 'Purity - Honour - Power' in Latin ("Puritas - Honori - Potestas") on a scroll wrapped around the bottom). The outline of the tattoo is shaped like a shield. It would be the equivalent of someone getting a white supremacist tattoo. He's able to cover it by wearing long-sleeved shirts and only rolls them up to his elbows. He likes to think that people might forgive him upon seeing it after demonstrating his change of heart but understands that not everyone will be so forgiving, especially those who may have been driven out of his hometown by him or by his friends or family.

He's also quite tall, standing at 6'4. The scratch that changed him crosses from just under his left nipple to his navel. If he has to explain it, he simply says that he got it in a knife fight after getting mugged. He has a bit of a dad bod and is physically unfit. He's started running to improve that.

Even though he looks the most like his father, he's been able to avoid suspicion. He still attributes that to his appearance that he describes as 'aggressively and impressively normal and boring'. He just looks like...a guy that you wouldn't take a second glance at.

The fact also helps that he’s technically supposed to be “dead” (that’s explained below).

Special abilities (if applicable)​

Ability to turn into a werewolf (haha). Looks like the werewolf from Doctor Who vvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

He has enhanced senses (sight, smell, hearing etc) which heighten even more before and after a transformation, and he can lift slightly more than the average person.

During a transformation, it is incredibly painful. He is aware of what is going on during the transformation but has no control over what it does but he will witness every single moment on it. It's kinda like being in the driver's seat of a car that has a mind of its own and will go wherever it wants no matter how much you try to take control of the wheel.

I suppose he has the ability of enhanced healing? (since a regular human couldn't possibly survive what happens to Jon during a transformation - heart failure, liver failure, kidney failure, a failure of all his human-sized internal organs that have to shrink in order to accommodate a werewolf body, his pituitary gland becoming useless as pain relief, the breaking of every bone, everything in order for the body to shift into werewolf form, most of which is occurring at the same time).

Background
​

He was turned into a werewolf when he was 24. He went on a trip to the countryside with his soon-to-be wife, Danielle (whom he met in college. She was studying to become a vet), who was pregnant with a boy whom they were planning to name Karl. With her, he had never been happier in his life. They planned to go to a local fairground, and he decided to take a shortcut through the forest. Even though the sun had already set, he convinced Danielle to go with him through the forest. It wasn't a long journey. It was a shortcut after all. Unfortunately that night, a werewolf was nearby. They were attacked by it. Only he survived, killing it with his gun (when police decided to look for the body of the werewolf Jon killed, it had disappeared). He was left covered in blood and scratches, with the most prominent (and the one that has remained) being a long slash across his chest and a broken arm. Despite the pain, he took her body, ran to the fairground and begged the paramedics, who were stationed there, to help her. Sadly they weren't able to.

While he was recovering in hospital, he was informed that he was to be arrested on suspicion of her murder but was later exonerated due to lack of evidence. Due to him having not had the first transformation yet, they weren't able to detect any indication that he was a werewolf. The werewolf gene hadn't taken over yet.

After her funeral (he also had a small funeral for his unborn son), he struggled to move on. He kept Danielle’s engagement ring (and also an ultrasound photo of his son). Later on, he attached the ring to a chain to make a necklace. The month after, he transformed for the first time days after his birthday. Thankfully, at the time, he was at his small cabin near the woods during a solo vacation, away from civilisation so the wolf could roam freely. He panicked, knowing how werewolves are viewed generally, and tried to put a new life together, faked his death (he forged a suicide note, and then set everything up so that a body could not possibly be found), and left his hometown and moved to a city far away, changing his name by deed poll. He picked Jon Smith for an obvious reason to avoid anyone from ever finding him. He managed to transfer the money he had in his bank account, transfer it to a newly made bank account under his new name and then close the previous account once the money had been entirely moved over. Until he was able to afford a basic apartment and get a steady job, he was homeless for a short period of time, living in his car for only a couple of weeks.

He hasn't seen his family since. He works in a dead-end job at a Passport Register Office to avoid suspicion (of all places to find a werewolf, in a little cubicle, in a big office, in a large building, in the middle of the city might be the last place you find one). He thought about working as a hospital porter but then thought otherwise. If someone were to look for him, perhaps a hospital (since he was studying to be a doctor) might be the first place they’d look.

He had to figure out his werewolf side on his own. He only discovered his inability to eat anything but meat a day after his first transformation when he ordered pizza. He instantly threw it up. He tried a yoghurt but he threw that up. He tried with other foodstuffs until all he had left to try was some frozen steaks. He defrosted it and cooked it. Yet...this made him throw up. He, hoping this wouldn't work, opened up another frozen steak, defrosted it, and then ate it raw. It all went down and he even seemed to enjoy it. He concluded that that was the werewolf side liking it and not him. After transformation, if his wolf side had managed to get into the woods and then hunted and ate an animal, he would throw it up later since a “human” stomach can’t deal and digest as well as a werewolf one (as almost the entire animal would have been consumed which would include the rest of the animal and not just the meat his “human stomach” is only able to consume and digest). He repeated the same process but with drinks but was only able to drink water (this excludes flavoured and sparkling water).

He misses beer, coffee, any Grape and Apple flavoured soda and Gatorade. As for food, he misses pizza, burgers, fries, cheese, ice cream (watermelon, mint, cookie dough and salted caramel), eggs, cooked meat, cake, doughnuts, ramen, bread, burritos and nachos. Especially burritos and nachos. Sometimes he tries to pretend that the raw meat is things he used to eat. (“First course: goats cheese with honey and balsamic drizzle on a bed of rocket salad with water chestnuts (meat with a bit of blood on it). Second course: Bacon Double Cheeseburger with large fries (meat sandwiched between slices of meat with a side of meat) smothered in ketchup and mayonnaise (a bit of blood) with bottomless drinks (water from the tap). Dessert: Doughnuts, and three scoops of ice cream” (Meat cut and shaped like a doughnut and a bowl of meat))

Before this whole thing, he was just an average human with a normal childhood, did very well in school, went to college to become a qualified doctor, but gave that up after the incident.

His father, Francis Beston, is quite a prominent figure who opposes the supernatural civil rights movement. Since he admired his father from a young age, he fell for the bigotry and echoed his same opinions. He would join his brother, Nathaniel "Nat", and his sister Carrie when bullying any supernatural they came across.
As they grew older, Jon, Nat and Carrie became a lot more radical, supporting their father's efforts, joining protests and mobs to scare supernaturals out of their towns. One incident Jon took part in occurred when he and his siblings intimidated a supernatural family into leaving by waiting by their home every day, yelling at them, shouting anti-supernatural epithets. They didn’t hurt them, vandalise anything or go onto their property. They had a policy of not actively harming those with young families. Because of their father’s ties with the local police department, they were never charged with harassment and went unpunished. Eventually, the family did leave to the sound of cheering by Jon’s family and friends. This is why he is worried about whether he may, one day, be recognised and confronted by a supernatural who had been chased out of his hometown by Jon and his family.

His father particularly hates werewolves as his grandfather was murdered by one, and even advocates the death penalty for anyone who is one. Another proposal included: "Anyone who reports a werewolf to the authorities will be given a $100 dollar reward for doing their patriotic duty". Naturally, Jon didn’t want to have to confront his father who remains a prominent proponent against supernatural civil rights. Jon's mother, Miriam, was also the granddaughter of a prominent supernatural hunter, Wallace Graupner. Despite all that they stand for, Jon still misses his parents and siblings and feels immense guilt for the pain he caused them, thinking that their son had committed suicide.

Personality​

He very much keeps to himself but he will help others if it won't potentially expose him (like helping an old lady cross the road, helping with directions, reaching out if someone can't reach something high up type stuff). He will be nice when he needs to be. He often has a short temper, especially when nearing a transformation, but has learnt to meditate and do other breathing exercises to keep his emotions at bay. He will however be aggressive towards anyone who insists on being in his company and isn't afraid to threaten people. He feels tremendous guilt for how he had treated supernaturals in the past which is another reason he prefers to avoid other supernaturals. He wouldn’t really blame them though if they decided to shun him or shame him publicly to warn other supernaturals, telling them to avoid him. He only hoped they’d appreciate that he’s no longer for that life.

Relationships:​

He has no interest in romantic relationships. Danielle was the only woman for him, and he promised himself that he would never go out with another woman if Danielle left him or had died before him. He doesn’t mind having female friends but he doesn't expect anything to go beyond that. You could say that he made a lifelong commitment to friend-zone any woman who shows an interest in him.

Although he’s still a red-blooded guy after all. He’s not a robot. He’d be lying if he said, since he arrived at the city, that he has never felt tempted by a woman - whenever he tried to make the effort to go out to enjoy the nightlife - or to sleep with a woman every now and then. Even if it’s just a one night stand thing. But he stops himself from doing so - it would feel as if Danielle was still alive and he was cheating on her.

Loves/Likes​

Chess, cats, reading, hiking, meditating, hunting (his enhanced senses of smell and sight are incredibly useful), working out (only just started recently), running, raw meat, gardening (he has an allotment nearby), video games, watching football and going to a football game. He makes sure to stick to the back of the stadium where no cameras would bother to zoom in on. He becomes as passionate as any fan. He could go on for hours talking about football. His favourite shirt is his football jersey. He has a tv but only has the news and the sports channel installed.

Hates/Dislikes​

Any other food, dogs, talking about politics, his job, talking about his family. He even hates werewolves to a degree 1) because of how he was raised and 2) because ultimately it was a werewolf who killed his fiancee and unborn son. Even though he has separated himself from his family and feels sympathy for other supernaturals, he still struggles to shake off his own animosity towards werewolves. He would feel quite uncomfortable if one decided to sit near or next to him, even if the werewolf was a welcoming and friendly person.

Any other details you feel it important to include​

1. Whenever a transformation is nearing, he often looks ill and his senses are heightened. Spurts of pain tingle through his body. He is easy to irritate. Even someone accidentally bumping into him on the street is enough to enrage him. He would leave a few hours before the transformation where he owns a small bunker in the middle of the forest. This would be where he transforms. He would take off his clothes (otherwise the transformation would tear his clothes apart), put it in a bag, hide the bag somewhere, drag a raw chicken around the room and then hide it, and then chain himself up to prevent escape. However, if he did break the chains, his senses would be too busy "following" the heavy scent of meat he smeared around the room (by dragging raw chicken about the room to leave the scent). It would distract the werewolf and cause it to follow the scent, thus keeping him busy until the transformation ends. Thankfully, somehow, he has managed to avoid detection or suspicion, even in this world of constant surveillance. He doesn’t take his phone with him or any electronic device one might use to track anyone, takes the evening bus to a place near the bunker location, then walks there. He often has nightmares of waking up from a transformation to find hunters, his father and/or police officers standing over his naked body as he woke up, being arrested and tortured and being unable to fight back or even transform due to some technology they placed on him beforehand if such technology existed. Nightmares of his execution by hanging while his family watched; his father telling him that Jon was dead to him.
2. He can only eat raw meat (this extends to fish) and drink water. Any other food he eats he will just throw up. This extends to the meat that has been cooked. When at work during lunchtime, he'll quickly eat in a restroom cubicle. Outside of the typical times a transformation occurs, it can be triggered early in moments of intense stress or anger. That said, he often cries a lot when at home. He has thoughts of suicide but his wolf side somehow has managed to prevent him from acting on them, even if it's at the last moment when he has a noose around his neck while standing on a stool.
3. He's very good at helping people with anxiety, PTSD and panic attacks. As part of his college studies (before he left), one course spent a significant amount of time studying anxiety, panic attacks, depression and similar mental illnesses, and so he knows how to help on that front. He spent a couple of weeks volunteering at a psychiatric ward as part of his work experience credit.
4. He has since watched the civil rights movement for supernaturals from a distance, refusing to step out and publicly declare himself as one, preferring to lay low and not have to deal with the stress of potentially losing his job and being kicked out of his apartment, and also potentially being recognised by someone back in his hometown. He refuses to register himself on any kind of supernatural registry. While he knows he is technically a dangerous creature (he is a werewolf after all who he cannot control), he believes he has put means in place to make sure he does not hurt anyone. He doesn't want to become like that werewolf who destroyed his life and destroy someone else's.
5. If someone were to tell him that they can cure him, he will beg them to cure his lycanthropy because of how much it has destroyed his life. If he is indeed cured, he has planned to kill himself for real to be with Danielle again. Since the werewolf side has, as mentioned, prevented him from being able to kill himself.
6. He regularly has the main newspaper (The Protector) of his local town delivered to him to see what is happening there and to see how his family are getting on. He cuts out newspaper stories that mention his family in any way and puts them in a separate album.
7. He has a photo album with all his family pictures - his father, mother, siblings, and him with his fiance with pictures of their ultrasound, along with one of his never to be used wedding invitations. He keeps it hidden away in a desk under lock and key. Otherwise, he has no photographs or pictures hanging in his apartment.
8. When he is having dinner, sometimes he has "conversations" with his wife, as if nothing bad had happened, putting a framed photo of her in front of him as he eats. Deep down, he recognises that he needs to stop doing this and move on, but, on really bad days when he needs an escape (and when reading, watching TV and doing anything else won't satisfy him), he can't help but do it. He knows that his wife would tell him to move on, but struggles to do so.
9. When it comes to connections he has with the other characters, due to his commitment to social isolation outside of the basic stuff he needs to live (going to work, talking to colleagues, going to the store, going to the bank), maybe some supernatural people can tell who isn't a werewolf and who is?
10. I also like the idea of Jon being the equivalent of someone in real life who used to be an absolute bigot, having been raised in a bigoted family, but managed to get themselves away from that. With Jon, it was still technically because of something catastrophic happening to him (It wasn’t exactly due to having a gradual realisation of the error of his ways. Perhaps he would have still be as bigoted if he had never been turned), but it has still changed him nonetheless.
11. His favourite colour is purple.

As for threads, I don't want to do any romance themes (when it comes to this character)

 

[SmallSailboat]

Name: Yerentai Qestir, but will only answer to Lance

Age: 24

Gender and/or Pronouns: Male, He/Him/They

Sexual and romantic orientation: Pansexual

Species: Au Ra, subtype Xaela

Normal form:



Glamoured form:


Special abilities:

Lightweaving- A form of magic that can manipulate light particles into specific wavelengths and directions, his hands often look like they're weaving or braiding something when he does it. He usually uses it to communicate, but it can also be used to make shields and other forms of defense, moving pictures, and other illusions. Can be used in healing, but only in the sense that laser therapy can help, i.e. cauterizing wounds, providing localized heat to an area, etc.

Cranial Horns- His horns are his ears, and the unique way they pick up vibrations makes him sensitive to sound. His kind belong in large open plains, so they evolved over time to hear better in that area against the large predators and nearby tribes that might attack. Makes city life a bit overwhelming for someone who can hear most of everything within a mile of him, but it's not like he can hear through walls or a pin drop across town. Most things block his hearing, but if left in forest or in nature, he would be better prepared than expected.

Scales are made from a material most similar to tooth enamel, which makes it stronger than steel but not everything. Another part of his species evolution, since the plains they came from were war torn for thousands of years before they were forced to adapt to the new era of technology.

Background (will likely expand later, would prefer to explore IC):

Raised by his human foster mother, he bears a painful past he can't yet face. He came into her house on the precipice of his teenage years, forming a strong bond with the woman he feels saved his life. After much trial and tribulation, he began culinary school with a specialization in confections and chocolate, though he is not yet a certified chocolatier. He doesn't have the money or the confidence to open his own place, but he hopes to build a customer base by offering his services to someone who does. You know when he's going to school because he was only permitted based on overwhelming talent as a self taught student, and on the condition that he wears a glamour to 'not distract' other students. It's a prism that sits on a necklace between his collar bones, tucked under his shirt, made and given to him by his foster mother.

He is particular about showing skin, keeping long sleeves pulled up, even in the warmer months. An odd habit for a chef, but the food is always good so no one could complain. When he can't use magic, he uses a feature on his phone to read things aloud for him, as his mutism is a physiological condition rather than a psychological one. He can also sign, but it's rare he meets someone who understands.

A surprising fact to those who know him, but not those who have seen him, is that he is trained in martial arts and likes working out. He teaches self defense classes at his local gym in his spare time, as well as an MMA class for children. Between that and spending time with his family, his schedule is usually full but he doesn't have friends. He appears imposing and intimidating, but he's largely just shy and awkward.

Relationships: His foster mother and his winged cats (Tressyms), Souffle the tabby and Ganache the brown one with white 'socks'. Sisters from the same litter, Lance couldn't bear to separate the two, so he took both. Both have green eyes.

Base stats: mute but not deaf, black hair and scales, greyed skin, silver eyes with gold limbal rings (for humans its the dark black ring around the iris, for Lance it’s a bright gold color that glows and dulls with emotion and vitality, specific to some Au Ra)

Build: 7ft, 300 lbs. Horns; scales on his face, neck, arms, back, the backs of his calves/feet, and hips. Small slender tail with points at the end.

Clothing Style: Loose fitting worn out clothes. Often have holes or don't fit right because of his size and scales. Generally prefers darker clothes because they hide stains better.

Likes: Spicy food, sweets, cooking, calm music, nighttime walks/runs, drawing, repetitive actions calm him down, animals (though they often don't like him in return), swimming (but only privately), reading.

Dislikes: Being the center of attention, salty foods, people touching him, malfunctioning technology, dishonesty especially of the sweet and swindling kind, showing skin.

 

[SmallSailboat]

Name: Cassandra Morgan, goes by Cassie or Cassandra with friends but Lance will only ever call her Miss Morgan, since she won't let him call her 'Mom'.

Age: Late 40s to early 50s, but if you ask her the answer will always be 29, no matter how many years in a row you ask her

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Pansexual

Relationship status: Single (don't remind her), loves her foster son but will not allow herself to be called a mother. Guardian, mentor, teacher; but she will always claim she's too young to be a mother (though secretly she hopes Lance will give her grandchildren someday)

Species: Human

Appearance:

5'2, though she'd sooner die than tell you how much she weighs

Stout, plump, stocky, always covered in various shades of purple, her favorite being her signature color of lipstick. Keeps her tattoos hidden, but each of them serve a magical purpose, primarily protection spells of some kind. piercings in her ears, the other ones from when she was younger have healed by now, though if someone got close enough, they could see where they closed up and some scarred. The clicks of her heels can be heard from a good distance away (think Mr. Krabs). Dresses professionally in most cases, but prefers frilly skirts and lavish clothes she conjures up for herself. Soft gentle hands, but the woman's aura and stance indicates she is quite experienced in battle and wild situations, lots of worldly experience she will share with you, whether you want her to or not. Chestnut eyes, mousy hair, a little frazzled from all the dyeing she used to do to it, but has since let it return to its natural color. If you're going to make a comment on her appearance, please be a compliment, it's in your own best interest (:

Personality: She loud af. Talkative, chirpy, oversharing, dramatic and playful. Will very easily go into a tangent on one of her adventures, though her charge will often not listen, as most of the stories she has to tell are ones he has heard from her a thousand times already. He won't stop her though, as the sound of her voice over a warm cup of tea is very relaxing to him, until the woman catches on that he's not paying attention, at least. Direct, assertive, jumps to conclusions rather quickly. Thinks of herself as perceptive, but in truth will often act before she has all the information available, which adds a lot of humor to the past adventures she will share.

History: Her travelling history is far too long to list in a CS (and I'm lazy, making it up as I go), so we'll start with most recent. In short, when she was a child, she and her sister were raised in a church together. Rebellious and independent, though she would look out for her sister, she never felt like she quite belonged in the church, especially beside her sister who was quite well behaved and a devout believer in whatever the adults told her. She wandered off into the woods one day to find a magical library, and soon began to study under the current Archmage of this library. She and her sister grew apart, but they would still write letters and keep up with each other. In her years, she has become quite experienced with different cultures, magics, and problems to solve when hunting down dangerous artifacts, tomes, and books deemed too unsafe to be kept among the public.

Abilities:

Creation magic- Can create nearly anything she can imagine from her magic, but it drains her life force. This has made her barren and sped up her aging process, despite all the cremes and potions she has tried to preserve her beauty. She is a mage, but a good natured one who isn't willing to cross certain lines for eternal beauty. She can only create what her life force will allow her to produce, so it's not like she could make clones of herself, but she does often use it for frivolous trinkets. A strong point of contention between her and her ward, since using it is something of an addiction for her that will eventually take her life if she doesn't regulate her usage of it.

Photographic memory- remembers almost everything in detail, no matter time or place; which made her study of magic go quite quickly

Aetherology- the study of elemental magicks and their combinations gives her control over specific types of energy, but not over the element itself. Mostly used in tandem with her other magic, including the lightning aspected energy she taught her son to use for his lightweaving. Without knowing their relationship, no one would guess she is familiar with lightweaving since she never uses it, but he had to learn from somewhere.

Enchantment- given enough time and the right grimoire, she can enchant items with a specific command. She usually uses it to make things float when they're too heavy to carry, or to enchant cleaning supplies into doing menial tasks for her. She could make more complex ones, but it requires the engravement of specific runes and the right ritual, detailed in grimoires she may or may not have access to.

Weaknesses: gossiper, speaks loudly, creation magic drains her life force (which gives her son quite a scare), memory gives her frequent migraines, oversharing personal details (not to be trusted with secrets she deems unimportant), hard headed/stubborn.
