Fantasy Down and Out in Dark World Character Sheets

[Gravitational Force]

Name: Your character's name. Your character can keep their Human name or come up with a Dark World name. Or have both. Whether or not one or the other will cause a positive, negative, or neutral reaction from those you interact with will vary depending on who they are. What really matters is if you can gain a reputation that makes your name matter.
Species: Their new species (Vampire, Werebeast, Demon, Witchkin, or Undead/Forsaken/Lost) and any subcategories they belong to (Bloodline/ Werebeast Breed/Type of Undead/Forsaken/Lost (Demon and Witchkin don't have subcategories)). For example if your character was a Werecrocodile Werebeast you'd list both here. Please reach out to me about this beforehand and I'll help explain the details. Keep in mind each player has to choose a different race, so decide amongst yourselves who's picking which one.
Image (or Description if you can't find an image you like): What your character currently looks like (and if you want what they looked like when they were a Human). If your character has more than one form (like how a Werebeast has a Human and Werebeast form) post both. If you need help finding an image for your character please reach out to me, I am very good at finding specific images.

Age: Please ensure your character acts their age.
Gender:
Sexuality:
Background: This doesn't have to be too long but should give us an idea of your character's past. It would be a good idea to include events that motivate them here. Keep in mind your character was a normal (for a given value of 'normal') Human from an Earth like our own before coming to the Dark World. Unless their background involved them messing with the occult which resulted in them ending up in the Dark World, in which case message me to come up with the details.
Rebirth: How they picked which Darklord they'd join and which species they'd become (or were forced into it). Describe the scene a bit. In your message to me I'll lay out some options for how your transformation could have gone.

Personality: This is more about showing than telling, so you don't have to put much into here if you can roleplay them to show it.
Quirks: What makes your character stand out? Nervous tics, distinguishing features, speech habits, etc.
Likes:
Dislikes:

Motivation: What does your character hope to accomplish? Escape back to Earth, find a cure for their condition, carve out their own power base, live in luxury, just survive, find adventure, or some combination of the above? What more do they want beyond that?

Skills: What is your character good at? Whether it's musical talent, mechanic skills, or just being able to memorize lyrics to songs easily post it here. Keep in mind skills aren't universal and you can't be good at everything. Being able to play the cello won't help you with a clarinet (and muscle memory may work against you) and not every machine can be handled the same way.

Powers: Please send me a private message about what powers you want your character to have and post it here if it's approved. The more specific and well defined your power and its limitations are the better. Keep in mind the more powers your character has and the more powerful those powers are the more drawbacks and limitations there will be on them.

Song: A song that fits the character. This isn't mandatory, but can be fun and helpful when figuring out how to play your character.

 

[Tattletale]

Name
Human - Sabien Price
Dark World - Red
Species: Weretiger Werebeast
Image

Spoiler: Human Form

Spoiler: Hybrid Form

Age: 23
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Background: A child from a broken home, his father was abusive and his mother left them long ago. Sabien found a family in a gang: brothers and sisters who would be there for him no matter what. This helped somewhat, but what Sabien always wanted was, for once, to be in control of his own life. This need grew through the years, and slowly warped into a volatile and aggressive outlook: "if you are not with me, you are against me". Sabien values camaraderie and the bonds he forms with his companions, which clashes with his need for independence and is the source of a great deal of internal conflict. His pride, born from his sense of inferiority, is what started the turf war that cost him everything.
Rebirth: As he lay in an alley, his body broken after a brutal brawl, an eerie individual approached him, and offered him a choice: to stay in the ground, and die like lowly prey, or become the hunter for once in his life, and rise in a new hunting ground. The choice was easy, what else did he have to lose? He muttered an agreement through bloodied lips. The last thing Sabien remembers is the man's sharp-toothed grin. The world became a hazy whirlwind of blood and screams. When he woke up, he felt whole, stronger than ever before. His hands were covered in fresh gore and he could feel the sweetness of raw meat in his mouth. It tasted like freedom.

Personality: Reckless and aggressive, fiercely loyal.
Quirks: When he is in a relaxed situation, among trusted allies, his demeanor changes completely, relaxing so much that he seems another person. His ears move like a cat's even in human form.
Likes: A simple man with simple tastes: fuzzy blankets for napping, the thrill of the hunt, deer meat, sushi, and beer. He adores cats.
Dislikes: Bureaucrats, bullies (which he understands as cowards who only hunt those weaker than themselves), child abuse.

Motivation: Strength and family are his only goals: Strength to carve a place for himself in this new, strange world, to find and fight anyone who might be a worthy opponent, and, though he doesn't want to admit it, to find a home and a true family.

Skills:
- Excellent spatial intelligence, rarely gets lost.
- Knows how to navigate hostile social environments, posturing and threats come naturally to him. A surprisingly good actor.
- Can drive well enough, though he isn't particularly good at it.
- Can brawl with the best of them, but he isn't a trained martial artist or anything.

Powers:
- Weak regeneration, flesh wounds heal over the course of a fight, but more serious injuries require rest.
- At times of extreme stress he loses control and shifts into hybrid form gaining strength, speed, and heightened senses. He still hasn't learned to control his power and cannot do it at will.
- While on hybrid form, he finds it harder to control his impulses and reason clearly, also due to his lack of control over his power.
- Catnip makes him act like a junkie (but he still doesn't know it).

Spoiler: Smell of the Game

 

[_Chrysanthemum_]

Name: Vael (pronounced Vale)
Human name: (she doesn’t go by this anymore, but she sometimes still calls herself this in her head. Just to remember a slice of her former self.)
Valerie Reida
Species: Vampire

Image

Age: 21
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Lesbian
Background: She came from a nice family with good connections. She's never had it hard, never gone hungry, never had to sleep on a hard bed. She was, for lack of a better word, spoiled. She was the only child of two well-known citizens. Her mother was the daughter of the vice president, and her father was a famous author with millions of dollars.
Rebirth: She was wandering around the city square, waiting for anything in one of the shops' windows to catch her eye. Finally, something did, a beauty shop with a sign saying; "We can make you beautiful!". It sparked her interest, to say the least. As she approached the shop she started to feel like she couldn't turn back, even if she wanted to. Something was pulling her in and she was pretty sure she didn't like it. As soon as she touched the door handle she heard a screaming androgynous voice and felt herself being warped into another dimension. When she next could see anything other than darkness she was in the Dark World. But they didn't lie. They could make her beautiful. It just happened to cost her her life.

Personality: She is sometimes kind of distant, thinking about her former life. But she pushes back those thoughts to pursue her ambitious front. That was, after all, the only way to make it in this world. She is also very dedicated.

Quirks: She developed this unnerving, blank stare in her first few days in the Dark World. Her eyes change from the normal reddish-brown to bright red when she is feeling a strong emotion.

Likes:
-Theatre/ Acting
-The taste and consistency of fresh blood
-Music, listening to it and making it

Dislikes:
-Arrogant or ignorant people
-mirrors
-(normal) restaurants

Motivation: She mainly wants to reverse time, go back home, and be human again. But since she doubts that's gonna happen she occupies herself with becoming a well-respected vampire with power and riches. She does kind of like the thought of being able to control people with her eyes and turn into a bat, and thinking of one day being able to do that motivates her to become stronger and more adapt to her vampirism.

Skills:
- She's a good liar
- Can play the guitar
- Smart, though she may not seem it when you first meet her. She likes to play dumb in front of new people she's never met until she can get an idea of who she's up against.

Powers:
- Quick reaction speed
- Is almost completely silent when walking and very fast
- Can heal small wounds

Song:
Death Bed

 

[GrieveWriter]

Name: Penance (AKA The 'Penitent' One)
Species: Demon

Age: Thirty Six
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Background: Penance was once a young boy from a lower middle class family who once melted into the background. Neither him or his relatives did much to warrant being known to the wider public, and the young lad probably would've continued subsisting in the realm of the unknown. All that changed when a crime took place nearby, a neighbor was murdered. Now the boy had gone to funerals before, but these were mostly family members who his relatives talked about all the time. When this neighbor died, the boy found it odd how quickly those around him stopped talking about him. The neighbor's family was only around for the funeral, and soon the house would have a new family in it. This was when the boy realized just how irrelevant many people were to the mass consciousness of the world, and soon his greatest fear became being forgotten in a similar manner. The solution for this was clear, irreversibly plant himself in the minds of so many people that his life would undoubtedly find a way into the history books.

The greatest way to reach that goal in his mind was money, those who ran businesses and industries were known by name by millions of people who barely even seemed to question that tidbit of knowledge. With passion many would consider inhuman, the boy dedicated the rest of his life to amassing social status and wealth. He learned, he networked, he invested, he did everything and more in order to become a financial powerhouse in the economy. He refused to look back, crushing enemies and allies alike in his mindless strive to the top of the economic food chain. And after twenty years of nigh ruthless ambition, making enemies in almost every corner of society in order to stand above all else, his karmic retribution finally caught up with him.

Rebirth: A less than legal business deal was nothing new to this man. He'd gone farther than dipping his toes into the criminal underworld, as everything up to his chest was probably stained by his ambitions. The primary difference between this deal and all the others was that it was a kind of trap he couldn't prepare for. He'd prepped for law enforcement, double-crossing business partners and even the wrath of nature itself. But instead he found himself being tricked into a demonic bargain with his very life on the line. Unlike many, the decision was clear to him as soon as the stakes of the matter were established.

Personality: Self-Obsessed Bravado to an extreme, Self-Made Man who staunchly denies the possibility of failure even against sheer overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Corrupt Business Mogul who's made an insurmountable fortune off of dealings on both sides of the law.
Quirks: He spoke with lots of over the top hand gestures as a human, and now that he's got four hands the effect has only been multiplied.
Likes: Notoriety, Money, Private Islands, Grifting
Dislikes: Oversight, Lack of Impression, Giving Up

Motivation: Accumulate as much success and Notoriety as possible, no matter how long it takes to get it.

Skills:
Mercantilism
Negotiation
Public-Speaking

Powers:
Small Scale Regeneration
Superior Physiology compared to humans
Ageless
Immortal
