#26
Name:  Alexandria Smithson.  (Current name.)  True name is Lilith, named after her mother.
Gender:  Female
Age:  Born a week after the fall of Pompeii.  Even she lost track of her age after a while.  Her current ID says she's 36 however...
Brief Background:  Settling down in LA, at least for now, Alexandria Smithson as she calls herself now opened up a talent agency with the rather vast fortune she had accumulated over the centuries.  The true talent she seeks however involves the good side of the magical community, able to tell with some ease who she can do business without fear of them being involved with dark forces due to her own connection to the dark side of the universe.  Still, while it can be a bit difficult to separate her two lives, Alexandria has met a good man recently with a rather unique daughter tagging along behind him.  While she can't keep a monogamous relationship going with anyone, if she was human, Lilith would have definitely considered it all the same.  When she's not acting as her current human counterpart, Lilith often sneaks off to do her own part in stopping whatever evil happens to be trying to destroy the world in this part of the US.
Personality:  When acting the part of her succubus half, Lilith can be whatever her current target wishes her to be.  The innocent schoolgirl, the sultry seducer, the naive 'virgin', and everything in between if they know what she is already of course.  The ones that don't get whatever she feels would have the best positive effect in getting them into her bed whenever she needs to feed but otherwise, Lilith is a lonely old soul that is tired of being torn in two given her hybrid nature.  Even so, she still knows how to enjoy life and while she's done things she isn't proud of in the least, she balances that side of her with the fact she fights in her own way against the dark forces that threaten the world on a regular daily basis.  Currently she's fallen for a human male and while she can't risk just sleeping with him alone, she does her best to keep him happy since it helps her feel human to some degree, something she needs a lot more than she wishes to admit...ever.
Ambitions:  Other than trying to destroy every evil son of a bitch she can, Lilith just wants to be either a full demon or a normal human instead of stuck in between as she is now.  Being torn in two as she has been hasn't exactly been fun.
Sexual Preference:  Bi.  She can't afford to be picky.
Title: Rival, friendly but most people find it hard to trust a demon, half or otherwise.
Details: While she's able to shape shift into any human female form she can imagine( as long as she has a dark skin tone and is actually female ), Lilith is still part demon and thus is subject to being summoned and bound as a normal demon.  Her half nature also makes it so that while she has vast magical knowledge and reserves to put them to use, she takes longer to recover.  Even so, Lilith isn't one to be trifled with regardless since she's the perfect actress when the need calls for it, able to manipulate her enemies with ease unless they catch onto her true game.
Fighting Style/tactics;  She's not hands on.  Close quarters combat is not her thing at all.  Even so, her magical knowledge is vast and potent to boot, making her a dangerous adversary if she's allowed enough time to prepare the appropriate spells for a given situation and she has the correct components to cast them to begin with.  On top of that, if her enemy doesn't know she's on the side of the humans and the light in general, Lilith is able to 'blend' in with the dark forces and manipulate them as she sees fit, unless they catch onto her true intentions.  Sending them into traps, passing along information to her allies are just two examples of how she's managed to thwart the dark.
Physical Description:
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Standing at five foot seven inches normally in either form, Lilith prefers to disguise herself when she's not on the hunt for a fresh bed partner to feed her hunger.  She's disguised herself as any woman a man or woman could possibly imagine, but her tastes change as time goes by.  Currently she's taken to making herself appear as a late 30s black woman with long black raven colored hair and deep sea green, albeit haunted eyes which even she can't perfectly hide all the time when with those she's grown fond of.  Long dexterous fingers, usually well manicured, full cheeks, heart shaped face, and a DD breast size that is not easy to ignore with her currently older figure she favors that leans on the well formed.
other information:  No matter the occasion, Lilith always takes the time to look her best.  It wouldn't do to appear as if she just crawled out of a fresh grave now would it?  She has a vast fortune to her 'name' as well which helps those she trusts which is virtually no one save for the Watchers Council perhaps, and not even all of them either since some simply see her as a demon and nothing more.

IMPORTANT UPDATE as of October 6th 2016 in A/A page

Starlequin


Name: Leon Jameson Brentwood
Gender: Male
Age: 25

Brief Background: Leon got his start in hunting when he was seventeen. His parents died in a car accident when he was still a toddler, and he was sent to live with his father's brother Daniel, who raised him in Los Angeles. Childhood was normal, if a little difficult without a mother or a real father. Daniel owned a small grocery store, and when Leon turned fourteen his uncle put him to work after school. It wasn't too bad; the hours were easy, and pulling a paycheck kicked ass over having an allowance. And that's how most of high school passed -- or at least, how it would have, if not for one bad night during the summer before his senior year. That was when, in the immortal words of Socrates, shit got real.

Leon was working late one night stocking the shelves, when he heard a scream from Daniel's office. He raced to the back of the store and arrived just in time to see his uncle's exsanguinated corpse drop to the floor at the feet of...well, Leon had no idea what it was, but it definitely wasn't human. Sure, it had human features, but it also had...more. Soulless black eyes, reptilian looking skin, a mouth full of razor blades and blood-drenched claws on the tips of long, spidery fingers. Leon stood frozen in shock and terror, and the thing slammed him into the wall on its way out.

Daniel's murder went on the books as gang violence, and a couple of local crackhead cholos went down for the deed, but Leon's eyes had been opened. There was weird, dangerous shit out there, filthy parasites and vicious predators that treated humanity like cattle...and they needed to die. Leon withdrew from his friends and buckled down on his studies during his last year in high school, then vanished after graduation. For the last six years he's been moving up and down the west coast, studying, training, practicing...and hunting.

Personality: Leon is an incorrigible, die-hard smart ass. He's brash, reckless, arrogant, and fights like he has a death wish. But he's got a right to be cocky, because he gets results. Bloodsuckers don't tend to last long in whatever city Leon finds them in. Because he's so acutely aware of the dangers that are out there, Leon has real trouble opening up to and genuinely counting on anyone; it's a real short list of people that have Leon's trust. Obviously, this puts some serious strain on any relationship more complicated than 'let's get drunk and fuck like weasels', but on the bright side those are really the only relationships Leon has any interest in.

Ambitions: All Leon really wants is a good drink, a good lay, and to make a whole lot of undead things dead again. Really, what more could a guy want in life?

Sexual Preference: Bisexual (prefers women)

Title: Rival Hunter

Details: Leon doesn't have any formal military training, but he does have several years of martial arts and firearms practice under his belt. In his travels, he's made a few interesting friends, from arms dealers to mystics, and in exchange for a little pest control now and then they keep him well stocked with plenty of dangerous toys for bad little boys.

Fighting Style: Leon prefers gunplay to hand-to-hand combat, and his go-to weapons are a pair of custom-crafted .45s with silver and ashwood-inlaid grips, usually loaded with hollow-point rounds packed with a small mixture of salt, silver nitrate and oak splinters in the tips. For backup, a sawed-off .12 gauge loaded with salt and silver buckshot and a Big Damn Knife serve to keep the nasties from getting too uppity. When close quarters is unavoidable, though, Leon goes to town with a pair of weighted gloves and fights using a bastardized blend of jiu jitsu and tae kwon do.

Other Information: Leon really, really doesn't like magic, but he'll work with it if there's no other choice.

no hurry.

@Starlequin.

Very very approved. At first, the guns in the photo turned me off, but I like the fact that Buffy's rival uses guns. You should PM me some more pictures that you feel like using for this character, so that I have some freedom when editing the Original post.

Woohoo, I got approved!  By the way to anyone who has read my character sheet, the cross weapon is being tweaked and toned down a bit, though still in discussion as to where to start.  All in all, I am very excited about this game, though.

I'm curious, what do you mean by the role of "The last piece?" The last piece of what, exactly - the ensemble? When I first saw the title I thought it might've been referring to something supernatural/artifact-related (akin to Dawn), but since you're trying to not set up characters in those pre-existing frameworks I'm guessing that's not the idea, so...just curious about what you're looking for on that.

Conversation is more useful than conversion.

Starlequin

I'm pretty sure its referring to character types like Oz, Wesley, Riley or Anya, who join the action and help save the day but aren't (or originally weren't) really part of the 'inner circle' for whatever reason.

After I get out of the shower here in a bit I'll finish up my character today, promise!  And I think Star has it right but I could be wrong lol.

@shjade
at this point in the development of the story and the characters. THE missing piece is a woman, more particularly, a character that Buffy can relax with. I think when i initially wrote the OP, the characters I had in mind as the last piece from the show were Oz, Anya, Tara, and Andrew. But, it is of course preferred if you thought of something original. :)

I must admit, I'm intrigued. If I may ask, what roles are still open for discussion? Does the "F characters needed" still apply?


Vergil1989

I believe it does Katida but talk to Photo to be sure.  As for what roles are still needed, I'm not sure to tell the truth lol.

That's why I asked. It was hard to tell. Thanks anyway!

Elias

Best Friend #2 - Male/Female - although nothing like Best Friend # !, this character will also be mistaken for a sidekick, also around the same age as Buffy, and also fairly capable in a fight.

The last piece - Male/Female - This character will likely be removed from the rest, not a member of the watcher's council or the school, involving themselves from an outside place on accident in order to do good in the world

the skeptic - Female - This character will doubt everything that the group comes up with, and likely run to them for help when it's never convenient.

The villain - You simply can't have a good story without a good villian.

The following roles are free I think

Vergil1989

No problem Katida and sorry I couldn't help more.  Thank Elias since he knows more than me apparently lol.  And Elias, I don't think I said it before but it's good to have ya back here again.

you too Vergil lets help get this game to IC as the local veterans alright?  ;D

@Katida

All roles are pretty well open. I mean to say that there aren't many rules, as far as character dynamic. That usually gets altered after the creation anyway. The list of needed "cast-members" is mostly for ideas. Keep in mind that the role of Buffy is up for grabs, as I'm becoming more and more akin to the idea of having a woman play her. Pm me if you are interested in that.

@Elias and Vergil
you two are so cute. :) thanks for the assistance fellas

What would the reaction be if I played a friend of Buffy that was not necessarily a rival but that just happened to be a  Dhampir?

Vergil1989

Unless you're an Ensouled vampire there is no good vampires, and I believe Photo already said no to that once before.
