Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Rules
arrow This is a LITERATE roleplay. If you do not know what literate means, do not plan to abide by this rule, or are a general annoyance, either do not enter at all or your posts will be deleted and you will be put on the blacklist.
arrow Violence is not only fine, but encouraged among characters. Everyone should not be friends - conflict is what keeps roleplays going, so feel free to control multiple characters on multiple sides if you wish.
arrow No godmodding. This means no magically dodging every attack thrown at you, no whipping a bazooka out of your pants unless you previously stated that you keep one down there, no having a list of powers that 20 pages long, etc. I think you get the idea.
arrow All profiles should be PMed to me with the subject "I will abide."
arrow Follow general ToS and be respectful to all other players unless they break one of the other rules, at which point, please, by all means, feel free to flame them. wink
arrow I reserve the right to edit/change these rules whenever I feel like it, so be sure to check back every now and then.

THE BLACKLIST
Nobody. Let's keep it that way.

The Characters
All players must fill out a form similar to this one. Please feel free to make alterations that you deem necessary or applicable. Also, please copy this code directly so I don't have to reformat PMs. Oh, and if you could be so kind as to delete the things in double parenthesis, that would be lovely since they're just to make the directions clearer and things ^^; Also, your text should go AFTER the bold tags. I just want the title things to be bold, not all of the text. Thanks ^^

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Username: Yamitate
Character name: Ren'uta
Gender of Character: female
Race: half-breed; her mother was human but her father was a wolf-demon who could change form into the animal -- that's how he met her mother...
Age: 16
Physical Appearance: Has startling emerald eyes with blond hair so dark that it's nearly doe brown, usually wears a black dress-shirt with simple dark slacks and always carries a belt with her swords and a gun in a sling-bag that hangs across her shoulder and chest. She tends to wear either no shoes when at home or sandals but when she has to dress up she wears lace-up crimson red boots and black military attire including a cropped military jacket with cream-colored buttons. She is quite fortunate because her father was able to completely hide his demonic features so she can as well. This is the only reason she can live in the city at all.
Preferred Weapons/Powers: a compact pistol, twin-swords, and a flute. She also has a wolf-companion that her father's soul now resides in.
Personality: is good at remaining quite and respectful on the outside / when in high-ranking company, but when she is around friends her true nature can reveal itself -- she has an extremely hot-temper and little respect for authority but she values the lives of those she trusts and values as friends more than her own.
Brief History: She was born in the house of an artisan in the city and strange things happened soon after she was born : the midwife that had helped her mother give birth was killed soon after the birthing and her mother spoke nothing of it. She never knew her father but when the wolf-dog sought her out and seemed familiar she began to understand that this was the only way she could ever be with her father. Her mother died only a year before this, when she was 15. Now she is respected for her ability to learn anything that is taught to her very quickly and her seemingly insatiable need for knowledge.
Location: lives in the city -- in the house that was once her mother's -- a cozy town-house that has two bedrooms, a full bath and a half-bath. The theme throughout the house is earthy, there is even a mural on the kitchen wall that depicts a fall scene in a sparse forest.
Employment: currently makes a living doing odd jobs for the government...though she does not like it -- it pays enough for her to live a decent life in the city.
Alliances: Works as a leader in the secret society of "The Brethren". This society is dedicated to forging friendships between humans and demons. There are many half-breeds that have joined over the years and Ren'uta is one of many.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Demons/Other:

Username: Anochaa
Character name: Amon
Gender of Character: Male
Race: Werewolf
Age: 19
Physical Appearance: Amon, when in human form, has saffron yellow eyes with messy ink black hair. His hair, when straight, falls down to around his mouth, but it is normally sticking up all over the place in messy spikes since he rarely has time to wash it. His skin is deeply tanned even though he rarely goes outside during the day time and he is on the verge of being unhealthily skinny. His cheeks are slightly sunken and his hip bones are usually visible over the top of his loose cargo pants. He is also normally seen wearing loose t-shirts featuring various bands, most of which people have never heard of. The corners of his mouth turn up slightly so it looks like he is always smiling.
In wolf form he has the exact same yellow eyes and his fur is completely black with the exception of his paws, eyebrows, a tuft on his chest, and the tip of his tall, all of which are a light silver-grey color.
Preferred Weapons/Powers: Being a werewolf, Amon changes into a wolf every full moon without any choice in the matter. However, he also possesses the power to transform into a half wolf-half man type monster when he is angered/upset about something. Since he has only been a wolf for a brief period of time, he is unable to control this and can only hold back his wolfish tendencies for a few minutes before they overtake him and he becomes a mindless killer. When in human form he usually keeps a switch blade with a silver blade wrapped in a piece of cloth in one of his pockets, just in case.
Personality: Very quiet and shy until you get to know him, but if you gain his trust, he'll be your friend forever. It must be the loyalty that comes with being part dog. However, when it is near a full moon or if he is about to change, he usually has an extreme personality change that makes him really temperamental, confident, and generally an a*****e.
Brief History: Amon originally came from a family that was high up on the social ladder of humans. His father was next in line to become mayor of the city, he went to an elitest all human school in the most prestigious district of the city and everything seemed to be going perfectly. That is, until he got bitten. Then his life changed forever. Two years earlier, when he was 17 years old, he and his friends took a trip down to the slums just to see what it was like. They got more than they bargained for. His friend was ripped limb from limb and although Amon managed to escape with only a few bites and scratches, during the next full moon, his parents saw him for what he truly was. They tried to hide it for a few months by locking him in a cage in the basement, but after he broke free one night, his parents disowned him. He was forced to live on his own down in the slums, completely cut off from contact and money from his family that used to support him completely. He's been living on his own, moving from job to job every couple months, ever since.
Location: One of the trashier districts of the slums, if that's possible. He lives in a tiny "duplex" even though his half of the house is in tatters, has a tiny bathroom with water that only works in good weather, a small living room, a closet of a bedroom, and a kitchen that is completely infested with various vermin. It's the southern end of Senai Street and a small laundromat and hardware store are a block away. Other than that, it's mostly condemned houses, squatters, homeless, and shady tattoo parlors.
Employment: He ocassionally takes jobs from organized crime leaders, mostly making deliveries of illegal drugs, generally of the magical nature. There are several types of such drugs that are popular among humans to give them the feeling of super natural powers, but usually have very grave consequences for their users. He occasionally takes samples of these drugs for his own use while doing his job and is shocked he hasn't been caught yet. He also works as a delivery boy at a pizza shop that's more towards the center of the demonic downtown.
Alliances: None at the moment.

Username: LanceCalvis
Character name: Lance
Gender of Character: Male
Race: Half-human a cross between a mortal and immortal
Age:
Physical Appearance: Lance is tall with black hair and green eyes. His build is lean and muscular.
Preferred Weapons/Powers: Exceptional strength and speed as well as Arcane, Elemental and Light magical abilities.
Personality A bit of a loner really. When he's around people Lance is rather laid back and calm. He detests meaningless violence and dislikes dishonest ones even more.
Brief History: He was raised by his father for most of his life. The town Lance grew up on was protected by a kind and benevolent ruler. His father was a knight in the service of this king. His job was to train the soldiers and Squires in training. Him and the King were good friends so our family was well taken care of financially. Now I'm stuck in this hell hole. When the king die his son took over the kingdom in an inexperienced and tyrannical rule. The kingdom was consumed by his greed by an old alliance of the past king The Watchers. This group lived as rogues watching over the land and occasionally stepping in to set things right.
Location: In the slums, I chose this living in arrangement instead of the city because of the large amount of government pressure there was to join there cause being half immortal and all. I lived there for a week and gave up on the city after the second government visit to my house, a bit much I thought. 517 South Barox Street was the street name. I lived in a run down apartment next to a gas station.
Employment: I work part time at that gas station and also do a bit of volunteer work from time to time.
Alliances: I'm currently not allied with any particular race. I find that many of the citizens of this place have given up hope and turned to less than honest living styles. In fact I try to avoid races whenever I can. Humans are seldom seen in this area and those that live here are either too frail to defend themselves or lack the common sense to get themselves out of sticky situations. What I mean by lack common sense is they will actually start insulting an armed robber instead of only carrying a set amount on them at all times.

Username: xPaynex
Character name: Tarquinn Rosemont
Character nick name: Quinn
Gender of Character: Male
Race: LycanXShifter((as in a shape shifter))
Age: 19
Physical Appearance: Quinn is around 6'2 and has a slight , athletic build showing very little muscle deffinition any where on his body when in his humanoid form.
Human form: Link
Lycanthrope form: Link
Preferred Weapons/Powers: When in his humanoid form he usually carries two silver and gunmetal Glocks. He also has an affinity for pyromancy and shape shifting in either form. He usually relies upon brute strength when in Lycanthrope form.
Personality: Quinn is what many would call a shadowy figure , even where he lives. He is never in one place for very long due to his confrontational nature. But he would never go looking for a fight , he only reacts when someone pushes him to that point. He has never been a loner , having a few closer affiliates , and even fewer friends. When provoked he has a nasty temper that is not easily subdued. Most of the time he tries to avoid getting to this point though , hoping to not hurt anyone. He can be sweet too , if the mood catches him.
Brief History: Quinn was raised by only his mother , and as such was always the only man around. He was usually out on his own doing what he could to make enough money to survive. He lost his mother when he was in his mid-teens and this left him without a home and the other amenities that go with that. This contributed slightly to his quick temper because he mostly blamed himself for that. But he has gotten rid of that guilt over time , the temper just stayed.
A few years after that he snuck into the human controlled part of town a wreaked havoc there for a week before the cops got him. They proceeded to "teach him a lesson" while he was restrained. This cemented his hatred for humans , or atleast their government. He vowed on that day that he would do everything in his power to change the way the city was run , come hell or high water.
Location: He lives in the Slums , in a small flat on a road whos sign was lost long ago. It is right in the middle of one of the worst parts in the Slums.
Employment: He does odd jobs here and there to have something to live off of. Other than that he has no employment.

Lance spent most of his time pacing about outside. He had a way about him that both kept him out of trouble and kept him from meeting new people. Walking with his hands in his pockets he looked over at a nearby waist basket. There were soda cans, wrappers and other discarded objects formed in a sort of ring around the can. "He walked over to the basket taking one hand out from his jean pockets, "damn lazy hoodlums, "he said as he snapped his fingers and the trash was picked up by the wind then dropped in the worn plastic can". Lance continued on his way down the mostly dirt path that he had to walk on.

Lance looked down and saw the blob of spit on his shoe. "Shoot, "he pulled a rag out of his back pocket and wiped the spit off of his shoe. He then stood up starting to walk toward a nearby trash can. Lance flicked the item into the garbage can while still walking. He didn't pay the person that had spit on his shoe any notice. As far as he was concerned the man was nothing more than another street urchin.

(Just to clarify an Urchin is a small boy; especially a pert, mischievous boy of the streets). I'm spell checking with a dictionary so I figured I should give definitions for the seldom used words that I choose.

Lance stopped for a second, "I'm not mad because I'm used to this living in this run down part of town". I find it better to play it safe and smart than act like a civilian in a bad neighborhood and have to fight for my life every day. You don't seem to be a regular citizen of this slum though, what is your name?

a man with gold eyes and black hair wearing a kimono stands on a hill overlooking the city pity that humanity still feels so much better then the rest the man says a small child with white hair and gold eyes also wearing a kimono walks up behind him is something wrong papa the child says
no nothing the man replies as he lifts him up to sit on his shoulders as he starts to walk into town
(my first try at a literate sorry if it sucks)
