On Virgin Grounds (by Ivy_Mariani and charismaxxx)

The first vampires awoke from their graves in the times between 3rd century BC and 4th century AD. All of them having died a violent death, they rose up again as creatures of the night, feeding on blood to sustain their life and replenish their youth, very strong and fast and possessing unique magic-like abilities. Roaming the darkness, they discovered how to turn humans into vampires, as well as the ability to procreate the usual way. Some of these vampires died, others left a legacy – legacy known today as the Old Bloodlines.

In the first few centuries AD vampires roamed the world, establishing contacts among themselves as well as getting to know the other side – the community of feral half-humans half-beasts known as lycans or werewolves. Sometime around late 8th century the Elders of the six bloodlines arranged a meeting, at which the future of a secluded and solitary vampire community was decided:

The vampires are an enclosed society with strict rules. Among themselves, they call it the Community.

There are three covens in the world: the oldest one is near Prague in the Czech Republic. The second one is near the city of Lanzhou in Central China, and the third is a very secluded one deep in rural Manitoba, Canada.
The coven near Prague is a huge old mansion on a hill several miles out of the city, more a castle than anything, with several underground levels.
The coven in China is an enclosed quarter consisting of a dozen large buildings, behind solid walls.
The coven in Canada is a huge farm, with one main mansion and a dozen surrounding buildings, away from the main road.
There are vampires in both the Czech Republic and in China who live outside the coven, but are considered a part of it. The seclusion of the Canadian coven suggests that its members stay within the limits of the farm.

Each bloodline is ruled by an Elder. Below the Elder are the Borne vampires, ranked in accordance with age and the influence and rank of their parents, with Sired vampires at the bottom, again ranked in accordance with their age and with the influence and rank of their Sire.

Each coven has 12 pets. Pets are humans who live within the coven grounds and donate blood and sex services to the vampires. Pets have only been admitted into the covens 10 years ago, at the Senate’s previous meeting. Pets are young people – in their late teens to early twenties, that will live as pets for about a decade until eventually being Sired. According to the Senate’s will, there's to be 12 pets in a Coven. If one dies or gets Sired, it is to be replaced by a new pet within a short time. The number 12 should be kept at all times.

Once every decade, the Elders hold a meeting called the Senate – an assembly which discusses and decides important matters for the vampire community. The vampires are a tight community – currently, only 249 vampires roam the entire world. Of course, outside of that numbers are the few Rogues – vampires Sired or Borne outside a coven or such who decided to split up from a coven and from their bloodline and go their separate ways. These Rogues aren’t many, and the Community usually executes them on sight.

Siring doesn’t follow any particular pattern. Bloodlines can Sire a new member no matter of gender, skin color, religion, or other traits. However, Siring is usually very careful – not all humans can become vampires, and not all would want to live within the Community, so mostly vampires are very careful who they Sire and Siring only occurs four to five times a century apart from the Sired pets.

Vampires can not only be Sired but also Borne, since vampires can get pregnant the traditional way. This is how the five Young Bloodlines came to life – by a communion between two members of different bloodlines. The members of the Young Bloodlines are as strong and fast as any member of the Old Bloodlines, but they have no unique abilities.

Vampires are notably stronger and faster than a normal human (though not blurring fast and not able to lift up a truck), they heal very fast and are immune to poison, disease, radiation, etc. There’s only four ways a vampire can be killed – sunlight, fire, decapitation, and stake through the heart. Garlic and crosses slow down and weaken a vampire, but cannot kill them. Vampires age at the speed of a normal human, and they grow weaker and fatigued very fast, resulting in comma, death, and withering; but drinking blood replenishes them and turns back their youth and strength. The average vampire requires blood once every 3 weeks in average to sustain their life and power without growing too weaker. By the 6th week without blood the vampire will be barely able to move. By the 8th they’ll die.

Vampires are not nice. They are cold-blooded, efficient killers, predatory by nature, and they think little of humans or humanity beyond the pets which are more or less accepted into the Community. Remorse, compassion, moral dilemmas are hardly in the repertoire of an Undead bloodsucker. Bloodline ties and companionship within the Community are the exception to that rule - but even within a coven, or sometimes even within a bloodline quarrels and conflicts are likely to emerge.

The Old Bloodlines

Aurelius bloodline - originates from Ancient Rome. Forefather - Augustus Aurelius (male), a Roman soldier captured and lynched by rioting Hebrews after attempting to hide in a cave. Unique ability – Blend with the Shadows (the vampire kind of "spreads out" becoming very difficult to spot in the dark even if you know where to look); current Elder - Cassandra Aurelia (female). Current members - 27.

Chun Lao bloodline - originates from Ancient China. Forefather - Chun Lao Jingfei (female), a young wife killed by her husband after he caught her cheating. Unique ability – Disorientation (the vampire's willpower strikes, making the target dizzy and impossible to focus and think straight for a few minutes); current Elder - Chun Lao Bo (male). Current members - 31.

DelaCourt bloodline - Originates from Canada. Forefather - Flynn DelaCourt, a man killed by superstitious aboriginal people after being accused of witchery. Unique ability - Aura Visualization and Absorption (the vampire absorbs the aura of their victim, further replenishing their youth and strength, the victim’s corpse withers in the process); Current Elder - Flynn DelaCourt III (male). Current members - 30.

Fabiani bloodline - originates from Ancient Venice. Forefather - Juliana Fabiani (female), a merchant’s daughter who committed suicide very young after a broken heart. Unique ability – Seduction of Body and Mind (the target becomes very attracted to the vampire sexually, regardless of age or gender); current Elder - Maria Francesca Fabiani (female). Current members - 36.

Morrigan bloodline - originates from the British Isles. Forefather - Conall Morrigan (male), a warrior who survived a fight at impossible odds only to be bitten by a rabid dog on his way home. Unique ability – Enraging Burst (the vampire goes berserk, getting a short burst of extra speed and power). Current Elder – Sarah-Anne Morrigan (female). Current members - 19.

Visigoth bloodline - originates from the Goth tribes in Southwestern Europe. Forefather – Dietrich von den Gotten, an old noble crucified by the Romans. Unique ability – Survive and Preserve (the vampire falls into a meditative state, allowing them to survive for a long time without feeding). Current Elder – Theodor Benjamin Markus von Visigoth (male). Current members - 24.

The Young bloodlines:

Rossanera bloodline – Forefather – Corrado Rossanera (male), Borne to an Aurelius father and a Fabiani mother. Current Elder – still Corrado Rossanera. Current members - 28.

Blanc bloodline – Forefather Sebastiana Blanc (female), Borne to a DelaCourt mother and a Fabiani father. Current Elder – Simon Blanc (male). Current members - 18.

Macabri bloodline – Forefather Mei Lin Macabri (female), Borne to a Chun Lao mother and a Visigoth father. Current Elder – still Mei Lin Macabri. Current members - 11.

Connor bloodline – Forefather Aidan Connor (male), Borne to a DelaCourt mother and a Morrigan father. Current Elder – still Aidan Connor. Current members - 16.

Reinhardt bloodline – Forefather Tina Reinhardt (female), Borne to a Morrigan father and a Visigoth mother. Current Elder – still Tina Reinhardt. Current members - 9.

***

The werewolves have a society of their own. They are not necessarily at war with the vampires, and some are even friendly or at least not hostile. But generally, vampires and werewolves consider the other a rival predator, so long and bloody conflicts in the past have been common, and even in modern days mostly they would fight each other. Luckily, these accidents are rather rare since the vampires rarely venture outside of their covens and the lycans have learned to stay out of these areas.

Werewolves are humans that can take the form of a large wolf at will. They are not common wolves, however – much faster and stronger than the average animal, and almost impossible to kill due to their very fast healing rate. They are not immortal like the vampires, but they spread quickly because it’s easier for them to conceal their kills – it’s simply animal attacks, right? So there are significantly more werewolves than there are vampires – a rough estimation puts their number around the 1,000 marker in all of the world.

Lycans usually live in small packs of 6-12 members, though exceptions have been noticed. They usually feed on animals and prefer to live in rural areas, away from civilization. Though again – not necessarily. Lycans aren’t nice, though, and almost every single werewolf that ever existed has tasted human flesh occasionally.

Biting or scratching a human doesn’t turn them into werewolves. Werewolves are born to at least one lycan parent, most commonly both parents are lycans.

They have no known special powers apart from their ability to shapeshift. 

***

The story takes place after a Senate meeting in January 2011. The Community has grown significantly in the last century, and with the upcoming Siring of pets living space is about to become a pressing matter; and with too tightly packed covens there is now the matter with too many quarrels and conflicts between members within a coven.

The Senate decides that a small scouting party should be sent to “colonize” new grounds – go in, settle in, evaluate the situation, and prepare for the establishment of a fourth coven.
A few vampires from different bloodlines, rank, and qualities are chosen as the ones to take up the task. The chosen location is the suburban area around Chicago, Illinois in the USA.

***
So, this is a small group RP revolving around of 3-4 vampires (could have a pet, too) sent to Chicago to move in, evaluate the grounds, explore possible feeding patterns (homeless people, prostitutes, etc. – what types of humans, what areas, what times of night are best for feeding), see if there’s hostility in the vicinity (most notably werewolves), find an appropriate place for a coven – a large mansion or a secluded apartment building, or whatever.

The game will begin with the group being notified by the Senate to go to Chicago and subsequently with them getting together and settling in, with relationships between them evolving (both positive and negative), as well as the before mentioned evaluation of the area and the likes. A bit later werewolves should come in, we’ll see if any vampire hunters or other form of hostile humans show up. The game is freeform. NC will not be possible in this RP, only consensual sex – and sex is not the point. If sex scenes emerge between two characters or a character and a NPC, that’s fine; but we’re mostly looking for a long detailed story.

Anyone interested please post here: since this is a mutual project of charismaxxx and Ivy_Mariani, working out interested parties and details via PM will take too much PMing back and forth.

You’re free to choose your bloodline, gender, age, whether you’re Borne or Sired, and some basic characteristics. Ivy and Ris will set up an example by posting their characters below.

There is the possibility of accepting one pet into the RP, as well.


Ivy Mariani

The character I'll be playing. Anything else you'd like to know about her feel free to ask here or in PMs I'll answer the best I can :).

Name: Ana-Lucia DelaCourt.

Ana is a borne vampire brought up in old money. She's one of the oldest bloodlines and basically heir to the enormous DelaCourt fortune and everything that goes along with it. Her father is a member of the vampiric senate and her mother has been deceased for a decade. Due to her heritage the 28 year old Ana is rather arrogate and at the best of times comes off as a bratty little child. If those fail her, her sarcasm comes into play. Though she can be a sweet girl to those who get on her better side Ana DelaCourt holds a very powerful secret of her own, an ability she's had since birth. All members of her family have it, making them one of the stronger and longest surviving blood lines in vampire history.

With her ability she can see the Auras of her victims and during her feedings can take an Aura effectively killing the victim with devastating results. Once their Aura is taken from their body, her victims wither making it near impossible for them to be identified later on. Though most would consider her a spoiled brat, Ana does work for everything she gains, wanting to make a name for herself rather than live with her name alone. She knows well that names and legacies can be built quickly, but they can be torn down and destroyed even quicker.

This is the character I will be playing:

Name: Galen Arthur Connor



Sired in his late 20s by one of the lower ranked vampires of the Connor bloodline. He's a street fighter in a suit, smart but a bit of an over-achiever, pushy, and a show-off with a weird sense of humor. He hates the fact that he's Sired and not Borne, and to a poor Sire in a poor bloodline, at that. He has no special powers, he only has the general speed and strength of a vampire, but he's a bit of a brawler with a taste for fighting and has survived a few encounters with less friendly lycans. His Sire has desperately tried to pour some of her manners into him, only with modest success, though.

Ahhh! Sounds interesting....May I be a human that's aligned with a werewolf clan? When the vampires come to Chicago, they could make me a "pet". That'd make the story a tad more exciting, don't you think?

Well in our idea pets are more... mutual property, so to speak. Though they are treated as humans, not property. Well, not entirely as property. That said, I wouldn't mind having jobe's character as a pet, though.

Aye, if jobe wants me I'm signing up to take her character as Galen's pet ^_^

Sure, I'd be happy to be Galen's pet!  O:) Erm, well, his future pet.

:D My profile's almost done!
Shall we be starting soon? Or are we going to wait for a little more interest?

Raphael

I was thinking to wait for at least one more person :-) But we can start a bit sooner, and we'll make sure to leave it open for others to join in later, if there's interested. So... I'm probably giving it a few more hours, and then I'll do the entry post? Does that work for you, Jobe?

Ivy Mariani

For some reason I'm having a Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy moment here..

"It has the words 'Don't Panic.' in large friendly letters.."

Yeah think it's just anxiety about getting to RP what I know best.. YAY vampires! *booty dances*
"Put your hands all over me."

Or it's just an anxiety to find a SO and a pet... lol. You'll be um... sandwiched. Between posts, that is. Yup yup.

Ivy Mariani

*Chuckling* Yeah but one or the other at this point won't necessarily be a bad thing *shrugs*. Mean isn't a MUST have for me or nothin though.
"Put your hands all over me."
Ivy's O & Os

Raphael

Well... Alright. Hey, if Jobe wasn't a heterosexual female, I'd have shared my pet with you. It's written in the Bible somewhere: "If thou shalt have a pet, thou shalt share it with thou buddies" or something along these lines.

Ivy Mariani

Yeah... But my character isn't into the fairer sex as it were. She's more of a find a nice little male, make him vulnerable and nom on him. Just part of who she is :P plays into her personality.
"Put your hands all over me."
Ivy's O & Os

Raphael

Of course! I'll wait until tomorrow and then I'll start the thread. I'll make sure I write the entry post in a way that allows volunteers to join in after it has already begun.

Ivy Mariani

*Nods* Sounds like a good idea to me. We've had a lot of hits to this thread so maybe once it's actually up and running some more people will jump in if they know what they want to jump in as etc.
"Put your hands all over me."
Ivy's O & Os

Raphael

Sounds reasonable to me. I hope Jobe can wait that long, she had expressed her desire to start soon...

Ivy Mariani

LOL! You dork, tomorrow isn't that far off. Besides gives the three of us a chance to finish tweaking the final touches on our characters. How they are going to be around certain people. What they'll dress like. How the sound of their voice is going to play out and influence another person. *shrugs* Ya know... Thinks like that.

Somehow I think the page long character sheet might have just done that... lol! Mine is what I posted in the first page of the thread, and then whatever else I come up with in my head tonight.

Hm, explanation: the page-long character sheet is for my private use. I do that with all my characters. It explains everything I as a writer need to know about him, from biography to eating habits. It's just how I function as a writer. Nobody but me will ever see the most part of that stuff... lol.

Ivy Mariani

Yeah but it's the admitting it part ;). Can see it now... 'Oh noes!! I didn't build a character sheet that's five miles long!! *sobs*'

*grins and giggles* And yes ris, I am totally picking on you ;) as always.

jobe352

Yup, I can certainly wait until tomorrow! :D Sorries, I'm just excited--I can't help myself. :P

I've got class in the morn, but I'll be on...'bout three. Where are our characters beginning? In the streets of Chicago?

Raphael

Our story begins with the Senate debating, making the decision to prepare the grounds for a new coven. That's the entry post, possibly ending with each vampire character receiving the message that they've been selected to go to Chicago. So the first post for each player will be the way they prepare to go to Chicago and stuff, and subsequently their arrival and their first meeting.

Since you're playing a pet being adopted in Chicago, Jobe, you can start off earlier with your own character's actions and life and whatever you feel like writing about prior to the vampire's arrival, so that you don't have to wait to join in :-)

On Virgin Grounds Thread

Have fun! The game is open for anyone who wants to join in from this point forward.

Ivy Mariani

You want me to intro Ana now or wait a moment until the official "word" is sent out for them to meet with the Senate?
"Put your hands all over me."
Ivy's O & Os

Raphael

No the entry post were written this way so that each player can describe in their first or second post how they were notified - each by their own Elder, with some reasoning behind. I left it so open so that if more people join in later, they can write a post telling how they arrived into the Chicago coven later cos blah blah Senate blah blah... lol.

Ivy Mariani

Okies wanted to be sure before I went ahead and typed up my entry :). Didn't want to F it up from the get go lmao. Would be very very bad.
"Put your hands all over me."

Haha, hey no worries, if I wanted to add a subsequent post but you wrote yours, we would have worked around it. Like copy the text, delete your post, and then add it later. So please, go ahead and eff whatever you feel like... rofl

Diabolus Lupus

Ok, out of curiosity, would it be possible to play a werewolf for this game? If not that's cool, I can still play a vampire or a pet. Either way, are there any particular characters being looked for?

Raphael

Hello, Diabolus! It's an open small group RP idea. Meaning we are looking for people to have fun, not so much for particular characters. So I should say - a werewolf would be a good addition to the group, also a vampire of pretty much any bloodline and personal traits. Just hit us with your desired role :-) I'm quite sure it's gonna fit nicely, right away or with some minor adjustments. :-)

Diabolus Lupus

All righty I shall send you something as soon as I get back from grabbing my sister from work.

Raphael

Take your time, Diabolus :-) Whatever character you're thinking about playing, it can join into the RP anytime, from anywhere... lol. So no rush :-)

jobe352

My response is almost done! If someone wants to play Dustan, my character's brother, they certainly can.

I can just play him myself, for as long as he is relevant to the storyline...Whatever.:-)

Raphael

Of course, Jobe :-)

I've posted the link to the RP thread a few posts up :-) It has already started, but so far we have three intro posts, so to speak. Anyone is welcome to join in with their own entry posts at anytime - now or later. The plot is constructed in such a way that it allows everyone to join in from the very start, or even 1 or 2 weeks into the game time :-)

jobe352

I left a little room for Galen to step in... >:)

Gah! I apologize if my introduction isn't satisfactory... :/ I was hard-pressed to thing of dialogue, etc.



Raphael


Raphael

Oh, one more thing though. It might be a couple of posts before Galen approaches Blaire. According to the plot, he'll probably just spot her and observe her, at first. In our storyworld, vampires are a very, veryyy tight community, as I'm sure you've read already, hehe :-)

Lol I'm posting about Galen's arrival in Chicago. But feel free to do yours anytime. Just so you know - it would fit best into the plot if our characters have received orders to meet up in a rented apartment on 5th street.

Ivy Mariani

Okay. See? This is why I ask these things :P helps me to figure out how to post things a little easier. Will wake myself up a bit and try to get another post cranked out.

Heh. I agree about all of it. Except she could have turned up on a motorbike like a Kate Beckinsale wannabe. Ooo that reminds me to throw in some vampire chick joke in one of my posts. Vampires watching vampire movies, haha. That's awesome.

I just imagined Ana and Galen sitting on a couch with Blaire in the middle watching Blade and going like: aw come on, don't go there! Don't go there Blade's waiting there! Aw crap :-( *tossing popcorn at the screen*

Diabolus Lupus

I'm throwing a werewolf in to the mix.  ;D

Name: Jaden Micheal O'Connell


Jaden was born and raised in northern Michigan by a single mom. His father knocked his mother up and left before he was born. The only thing his mom could, or would, tell him was that his father was handsome and that he'd inherited said looks. When he was about thirteen he found out that he'd inherited something else from his father. He was also a werewolf.

He concealed the transformations from his mother, until he moved to Chicago for school. He went to school for a few years, earning a degree before becoming a freelance artist. He has enough success to survive, but by no means is he wealthy.

Yay now we have a werewolf... We might wanna clarify how he fits into the story :-) Rival to the vampires? Curious neutral? Future ally?

jobe352

Awww...Jaden's adorable! I still haven't found a good picture for Blaire.  :-X

That's perfect! Our new werewolf can be Dustan's friend! Yay for friiiendddss...Because -cough- Dustan may be a wolfie.  O8)

Diabolus Lupus

I was figuring him as being neutral with the possibility of being an ally. He's a bit clueless about the supernatural stuff since he's never had anyone to explain the 'rules' and stuff to him.

Raphael

Sounds great! You're free to join anyway you like, of course! Ally, lover, foe... etc. etc. And of course, join in any time, as well! Welcome to the virgin grounds :P

*bares fangs and nods at Ivy* you take the left half, I take the right!

Left half and right? What... Is Galen and Ana splitting up jobe's character or something?? I hope not that could be rather messy  XD

Yeah that's my way of saying "What are you talking about man??"

I was talking about the strip club. You take one half of the strippers, I take the other, and we suck away. Jobe is to remain whole! She's my pet so keep your dirty hands away from her! :P

Ivy Mariani

Heeey.. My hands aren't dirty, I just washed them :( *sniff* lol

Oooooh okay. You get the females and I'll get the men ;)

Lol... um, okay! So you'll get sweaty working class guys with hairy armpits, and I'll be flossing stripper dust from my teeth for a week. YAY ^_^

Ivy Mariani

As long as I don't breathe I should be perfectly fine. Besides I'm sure there will be some very nice company execs there, or some bachelors there partying before one of them gets married. *grins*. Oh the possibilities. :P

Well, like Smiling Jack - the old vampire from the game Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines, once said - "Ever had a Ph.D., kid? Oh, that's good stuff!" Hehe... So, if we're to assault strip clubs we should make sure they're near business avenues and banks and courts and stuff. More suit, less hairy armpits. And juicer girls, yum.

Diabolus Lupus


Ivy Mariani

Honestly not sure, right now we've got the two vampires and the one pet. You could likely NPC someone until another wolf or human or something joins in that could be with him. Unless you know of someone who'd be willing to jump in now then, the more the merrier I always say ;)

Ivy's O & Os

Raphael

The way I see it, the werewolf character should be the one to spot the vampires long before they spot any werewolf presence. His nose is better :-) After that, we'll let you Diabolus decide if, when, and how he approaches! :-) Whether he follows and spies on them, presents himself, attacks them, etc. It will add a very nice twist to the story.

Diabolus Lupus

*nods* ok. My muse wasn't workin' last night, but I should hopefully have a post up tonight after I get home from work.

Raphael

There's no pushing here, Diabolus :-) We're all a lovely bunch and everyone is welcome to post whenever the muse hits them! No rush, no demands! Feel free :-)

jobe352

I ish back for now--but, sadly, I must leave soon!  :'(

So, how's everyone this fine day?

Ivy Mariani

I'm sick *mutters*, and so so sleepy. But am doing alrightish aside from all of that hehe. Hoping my brain is still working so I can crank out some replies.

Raphael

Heh, no rush silly Jobe! We're all cool and laid back ;D No worries!

jobe352

A tad wordy, but sufficient!

Can't wait to see your reply, Ris.  ;)

LucianLuna

Hey guys. Looks like you thought up another interesting one. Are you still looking for players? i have a couple possibilities.  Either Lucian and his Twin Damian as new vampires or my new character Damian Scott as a pet. Hope your still looking

Raphael

Hi Lucian! Yes, we welcome new players :-) We're hoping for another vampire or another werewolf, so you're welcome. The nature of the story world me and Ivy created suggests that more than one pet would be too much. However, more vampires to the group would be more than welcome, and a werewolf companion for Diabolus' character would be, too! So take your pick and welcome :-)

LucianLuna

How about two vampires for the price of one. the twins Lucian and Damian

Raphael

But of course :-) I don't see how two vampires would be anything other than welcome!

If you like, post your vision on the two vampires here - picture and a brief description, plus of course bloodline etc. :-)

LucianLuna

Name: Lucian and Damian Connor  (identical twins)



The twins were borne into the Connor family and turned 22 on Halloween. They have totally different personalities. Lucian is more outgoing and won't take shit from anyone. Damian is more timid and was bullied a lot growing up until Lucian took care of the bullies by beating them in a fight. Lucian will always protect his brother and his friends even if it led to him getting in trouble for what he did to protect them. He had toned down his attitude a bit now that he's older and has better control of his anger, but sometimes he still let's it get the best of him. The twins have never been separated and Damian has come to rely on his brother for a lot of things including companionship since Damian has no other friends.

Ivy Mariani

I think Ana just groaned a little about there being more Connors ;) but I'm sure she'll survive *chuckles*. That sounds good to me, and yep we got a good one again hehe. Always thinking and such.

This is a picture of the new coven in Chicago. It's a mansion with 12 rooms which should be enough to host a small coven considering that many vampires live together and share a room, some let pets sleep with them, and some pets share one room. The empty ground around gives the opportunity for at least three more similarly large buildings to be erect later. So in a year this place could easily host maybe 80 or more vampires and a dozen pets.

Daeroth (Dae) Fabiani



Dae is a borne vampire, borne 350 years ago though physically he is closer to 29 years of age and though he is not the richest of the fabiani family but he is wealthy in his own right. his father was in the senate before he died but Dae had decided not to take his seat when it had been offered, mainly because he didn't like politics. he inherited the sexual appeal of the fabiani coven had and at first he had thought it was great but as men started to hit on him he'd realized it was actually a curse of sorts. women he didn't mind seducing but men, they made his skin crawl as he got older an used to his powers he realized he could learn to contol it and direct the sexual attraction to women. he now lives in his old family home and has not taken a mate though he is not against it and though he has had his share of women, he has never taken one as a permanent though if he finds the right one then he will settle down and take a mate.

Lol this isn't god-modding, silly! You just wrote about our characters doing something that they were DEFINITELY going to do, without putting emotions or reactions or dialogue to my character. It's ALRIGHT! ;D

I suppose you're right...but what if Galen doesn't like Italian and wants to go somewhere else? -sobs-
