Black Market Witch
Survive school, graduate, join the monotonous adult world until you eventually die. This was the plan for a group of friends living in Bellua City. A normal life. In a normal city. But going home late from school one night, they stumble across a murder. And the culprit. A vampire?
Fortunately, they’re saved. But they’re saved by other monsters. And after witnessing what they did, their “saviors” aren’t willing to let them go just like that. Now they have two choices. Die and take this secret to the grave. Or get dragged into the world of monsters, magic and mafiosos that secretly control their city.

The story begins with a group of human teenagers who, going home late from school one night, come across a vampire killing someone. Seeing them, the vampire turns on the teens, chasing them down until it's stopped by a couple of other supernatural creatures. But since they've already witnessed the vampire, the ones who saved them can't just let them go. Instead, the teens are given a choice. To either die to preserve the secret or give up any hope of a normal life.
The humans are now at the mercy of these monsters, who end up pulling them into this supernatural world. They go on adventures, discover more about the secret side of their city and some of the darker parts as well.

Setting: The roleplay takes place in Bellua City, a large city I imagine is similar to London (but not London so that I don’t have to worry about inaccuracies), set in England. On the surface, it’s your average city, but in reality, everything is controlled by 3 supernatural mafia families, the Walpurgis. Smaller gangs are numerous but the city is only really run by the big three that not only control a major aspect of the supernatural society but also human society, such as security, media, medicine, etc. Most smaller gangs pledge allegiance to one of the main 3.
Walpurgis: (if you want to make a mafia family that maybe serves under the Walpurgis then please pm me)
- Ashtrum - (demons) The Ashtrums, on the surface, run Polaris, an international security company that deals in everything from alarm and security systems to trained body guards. But in the underworld, they're a demonic family of assassins usually tasked with killing those who prove to be problems to the underworld to pretty much anyone if you can pay enough. They're most known for their brutality and lack of concern for the well being of anyone they deem weak.
- Draculesti - (vampires) To the outside world, the Draculesti run the largest hospital in Bellua City and a chain of pharmaceutical companies, researching medical innovations. After dark, it's not much different. The Draculesti continue to research, but rather than regular medicine, they look into drugs and innovations to help supernaturals blend into human society or things to help neutralize rogue threats. Such things include a specialized sunscreen for vampires or pills to help monsters swallow human food if need be. They also control the blood and human meat supply for monsters who require such diets. These usually come from the donors or recently deceased from their hospitals. Mess with them and you may find yourself a test subject for their experimentation.
- Kassem - (dragons) The Kassem family run the banks in Bellua City and are best known for bringing the city from crippling debt to a prosperous economy in the past, being the family with the most history here. In the underworld, they run the black market and auction house, selling things from antiques and magic artifacts to rare creatures and even humans and other supernaturals, to be either slaves or food. Those who've crossed the Kassems have often found themselves either on the auction stage or a ship to their new owners.

Character Roles:
- Humans (3-4 total) - A group of regular teenagers, friends, who stumble upon a supernatural scene and now can either get killed to protect this secret world or pretty much become slaves (not literal slaves) to this world and their “saviors”.They must be completely human with no supernatural blood, abilities or experiences. This can change with the rp but if you want your character to become something supernatural or gain abilities, then please discuss this with me first so we can work something out if it’s possible.
- Supernaturals (2-4 total) - Supernatural creatures that are tasked with keeping an eye on the humans to make sure they don’t reveal the supernatural world to the human one, and to kill them if they do. They can belong to one of the Walpurgis families but do not have to.
