I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you so much, when I'm done there'll be nothing left of you.

He wouldn't stop telling me, yearning for me to know he loved me. Even as he clawed and tore and ripped at me. Beyond the pain that seared from limb to limb, I was in awe of something as beautiful and horrible as he. There shouldn't be any creature like him allowed to live, I know that. But there's only one way to kill them, you know, the guardian monsters... I am his life. It doesn't matter how weak I am nor that he thrives off my bloodshed. His strength does not depend on me. It's why we call them that - guardian monsters. If their bonded human dies, so does the spectre. Spectres are what the race is really called. They appear just as humans do which is why it's so difficult to discern a wolf in sheep's skin. This side of him isn't what is usually shown, my spectre wears his mask rather well. He is kind, he is gentle, he is sweet - but that's all a front. He tells me he loves me when he gets in his bloodlust and it's not that I doubt he loves me, I know he does. But it's not like the kind of thing that lovers share. It's more primal than that. He loves the broken things, the meat, the taste of my own monster lurking within. The chosen humans are always given the choice - suffer yourself or allow the suffering of others. The spectres don't have to kill their victims, but mine enjoys squeezing the life out of others... I know this because of my weakness - It's funny what I call a weakness he calls a strength. The first time he let me choose, I watched him rip the life out of a classmate. Because he can't kill me, it's been me ever since. I don't want my hands soaked in blood. I don't want to be the monster he is.

I hate you, I tell him. His eyes soften and he nuzzles his nose into my neck, his lips are warm and wet with my blood but he kisses me. I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.

I love you, he murmurs, sinking teeth down.

Hello and welcome. This is a game about monsters. Though the intention of this game is not to focus on gore, it is intended to be a bit fucked up. So, if you're squeamish, this might not be the best game for you. But, if you're into the dark and twisted, estranged romance and psychologically dynamic themes, then this might be the game for you. Feel free to read on, and if you've any questions, you're more than welcome to ask.

About the game:
-Modern setting.
-At least 2 paragraphs preferred.
-Needing about 6 - 8 characters and looking to expand the game further in the future depending on how well it does.
-Any pairing is allowed, i.e. spectre x spectre, human x spectre, human x human. A bonded human can be involved with a spectre that is not their bonded. Anything goes here.
-Any gender (or non-gender) orientation, any sexual orientation.
-Please be respectful of others and enjoy!

About the Spectres:
-A 'monster' race that is indistinguishable from humans with the exception of their strength, power and bloodlust.
-They feed from human suffering, pain and anguish. That means they could feed off the flesh of humans, they could feed off physical torment of humans, they could feed off mental/emotional turmoil of humans. Their appetite and indulgence is up to you.
-They are each bonded to a human and this human they protect fiercely, as if their human dies, so do they.
-Typically they are distrusting of other spectres and can count other spectres as enemies, however, the number one threat to the spectres will always be humans, so destroying themselves would be mad.
-Spectres are thought to be mutations, but the real cause of their manifestation is yet unknown. It does seem however, that any coupling can result in the birth of a spectre. While it is most common for a spectre coupling to result in spectre offspring, a human and spectre coupling can result in spectre offspring as can, though much more rare, a human and human coupling.
-While spectres can feel other emotions and feelings other than the hunger, the hunger is always the dominating drive/emotion/feeling.
-Spectres can survive quite well off of only one or two feedings a month.
-Spectres usually have hunting grounds that they compete for.
-All spectres have different preferences as to their favored victims.

About bonded Humans:
-A human cannot choose whether or not to be bonded with a spectre.
-Humans are given a choice - the Spectre can feed off themselves or the Spectre can feed off of other humans. They make this choice every time. A spectre can override this if their bloodlust is too intense (due to starvation or mental breakdown) or if their human is already too weak to handle a feeding.
-Bonded humans have regenerative properties due to their bond with the spectre. The closer they are to the spectre the faster they are able to regenerate.
-Humans cannot identify other spectres unless said spectre is in some way revealed to them.

Below is the character skeleton, please fill this out and submit for review. Please submit an image representative of your character along with the skeleton.

Name: The character's name (just first name or full name is fine) and any nicknames.
Race: Human or spectre?
Bonded: Who is the character's bonded spectre/human? It's okay to leave it blank for now, this can be determined later!
Age: Self explanatory, I should hope!
Gender: Female? Male? Trans-person? Non-binary?
Sexuality: Heterosexual? Homosexual? Bisexual? Pansexual? Asexual? [Or any other form of sexuality yet to be listed.]
Theme song: Give me your characters theme song!
Personality Traits: You can just use keywords here, like... Charming, irritable, naive, excitable, crabby.
Brief Bio: This is where you let us know as much about your character as you'd like us to. Don't feel like revealing their past? That's fine! You can write about who or what they seem to be, the type of life they seem to lead now, etc. If there is anything you would like to discuss with me as far as plot ideas, feel free to approach! And of course, I think you can also plot among yourselves, so feel free to do that as well!

Stats: You have 25 points to spend! Your character can change as the story progresses and they can earn more points! A spectre's physical abilities will always be more powerful than a human's, i.e. if a spectre has a strength of 3 and a human a strength of 3, the spectre's strength of 3 is double that of the human's 3, so for the human to match the spectre's strength of 3, they would need a strength of 6.

Race: Spectre
Bonded: Lily
Age: Early twenties.
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexual with a female lean.
Theme Song: An Aurora by Tomoko Death
Personality: Temperamental, insightful, manipulative, charming, ornery, perverted.
Brief Bio: Kasper has little issue blending in with humans. He attends university and holds a part time job to keep up with appearances. His hunting grounds are the university and areas around the university, lately however there have been a few competing for his prime feeding grounds due to an insurgence of spectres in the area. While some spectres band together to avoid chaos, Kasper is a lone wolf. Areas outside his are known for being ruled by spectre gangs but his territory has yet to be snatched away from him - not that attempts haven't been made. He is annoyed by having to protect a weaker being and sees his bonded as a burden.

Name: Nigiri (pronounced knee-gear-ree), nickname Eerie (play on of the last part of his name)
Race: Human
Bonded: Kai
Age: Late teens.
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexual, male-oriented lean
Theme Song: Where Is My Mind by The Pixies
Personality: Playful, eclectic, curious, naive, stubborn, unstable.
Brief Bio: Nigiri is a drifter. He seems to have little to no ambition as far as his future, instead preferring to play than work or study. Unlike most, he is very friendly towards his bonded spectre and has a close companionship to them. He doesn't seem to take notice of his surroundings or the intentions of other people. For now he works at a small coffee and sweet shop. He enjoys change as indicated by his nomad type lifestyle and his ever changing hair color and styles.

Name: Penelope
Race: Spectre
Bonded: Russell
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual, though will shamelessly flirt with anything around her
Personality Traits: Seductive,Smooth talker, Bubbly, Courageous, Fake, Inner torment, Unable to cope well
Brief Bio: Penelope's history is a bit hard to quite pin point, in the regard she doesn't freely give information out about herself to begin with.That if any are able to get through the heavy mask of deception and flirtatious mannerisms they would find a woman with a bitter past that she does all that she can to keep hidden away. The fast talker will spin a various sort of lies and facades of her younger life, each one varying from being a professional model who got tired of the business, to that of a gang leader's daughter who had to lay low in order to stay 'alive', each one is more fabricated than the last as many don't put forth the effort to try and learn the truth. In fact Penelope is quite content in making up stories of her life, the latest perhaps the first if not foremost truth as she is currently in the ranks of a gang of spectres who wish to give protection to others of their kind in a form of tryst of varying sorts. The so called recruiter has a natural gift of picking out those she sees as potential and is her job to bring them into the fold less there be any more territory battles and unnecessary blood shed when it could be put to better use. The organization is one of darkness and shadows, only going by one name; The Inked Swallow as Penelope bears the organization's embalm of a gentle swallow on a throne branch as a tattoo across the curve of her hip.

Name: Ken Long
Race: Spectre
Bonded: Iona
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme song:
Fairy Tail, Natsu Dragneel's theme

Personality Traits: Hot-tempered, quiet, strong-willed, cruel, stubborn, emotionally distant, vengeful, not very bright
Brief Bio: One of the very rare cases in which a spectre was born to two human parents.  He grew up not truly understanding what he was until late into his teenage years.  He was violent, cruel, and rebellious all throughout junior and high school.  He found it difficult to get along well with others and was constantly getting into fights.  He had been suspended multiple times and had to change schools twice due to expulsion.  Considering his poor academic performance, it was practically a miracle that he was able to graduate at all.  Perhaps the only reason why he even bothered with school in the first place would be his parents.  Though he often butt heads with his father, he still loves both of his parents.  He'll probably never realize much least admit to that, however.

Taken Role


Name: Russell Rolph Weyland
Race: Human
Bonded: Penelope
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme Song: "Victor & His Demons" by Fiddler's Green

Personality: Generous, Creative, Musical, Brooding, Temperamental, Passionate, Lost

Brief Bio: A musical prodigy beyond any doubt. From an early age, Russell demonstrated an ability to compose music and a knack for learning almost any instrument, the violin and piano being his favorites. In his high school years he was composing multi-symphonic pieces, and by the time he finished college he had been invited to join several different international orchestras. The money was good, too! When not touring, he would spend additional time composing and selling his work to musical publishers for a tidy sum. While not commonly famous or a household name by any measure, his work is well known and in demand by those in the industry. Only lately, he hasn't been producing much. For reasons of his own, Russell has moved out of the limelight. Friends don't hear much from him these days. At best, he remembers to send birthday cards to his sister's kids. Job offers and commissions have been turned down, and while he has plenty of cash thanks to prudent investments, he's been out busking on street corners and subway stations, or playing gigs in small bars and night clubs. Any pub that has a working piano even half in tune is fair game, and he doesn't even bother to put out a tip jar half of the time! And of late? He's been drinking. A lot. Russell Weyland might still be young yet, but by his unshaven face and the haunted look in his eye, he's seen better days.

Name: Charles Castex

Theme song: Broken Out of Love by Mark Crozer and The Rels
Personality Traits: Aloof, Cold, Manipulative, Playful, Secretly Perverted, Hard to describe in one word yet I would say kind of that Mad Hatterish gig, but the more serious version of it if that makes sense.
Brief Bio: When he was younger Charles own intelligence separated him form others, both by his own doing when he found his peers to be boring... and other times when they couldn't understand him. Overtime this would eventually separate him from them not just socially, but emotionally as well. Not that this really mattered when one was able to become a professor at a university at a younger age... such separation was needed. To be quiet honest it is this that creates his close ties to his Specter and whatever it wishes to do... amusing observation perhaps? Or maybe one of many other motivations could drive him? Who knows... at the end of this game after all the blood would only be on a proxy's hands.

Taken Role



Name: Ro (Short for Roach)
Played By: Amarlo
Race: Human
Bonded: Robert Black (Justric)
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme song: Meg Myers - Desire
Personality Traits: Paranoid, Guarded, Distant, Hostile, Irreverent, Animalistic, Sarcastic, Witty, Clever, Imaginative, Inquisitive, Improviser, Questionable, Somewhat Sadistic, Self-sadistic, Self-contradictory, Fearful, Angry.
Brief Bio: Truthfully not much is known about Ro. She keeps herself pretty distant from those around her despite her unquenchable thirst for companionship. Unfortunately it's because of this many have come to assume she's either a snob or shy. In all honesty it has a lot less to do with timidity or ego and a lot more to do with fear. After all, Ro is no ordinary oblivious, happy little human. Oh no, our little Ro didn't grow up blissfully unaware of those dark things that go bump in the night.  As a matter of fact her earliest memories aren't much like those of a typical human at all.

Ro didn't go to any schools growing up, nor did she have many - if any - friends either. No one tucked her in or read her stories before bed, no one took care of her when she was sick or soothed away her fears after a nightmare, no one celebrated her birthday or hid presents beneath a Christmas tree, and you can bet no one took time from their day to teach her how to read or write. As a matter of fact, Ro doesn't even remember her parents, and as far as she knows they are long dead. You see, she wasn't anyone's precious little girl - not like the typical precious little girl at least. What made her precious wasn't any of her actual merits, after all. What made her precious was her capacity to feed those around her.

After all, what was more pure than the terror and pain of a child? Even better yet, she didn't know any better either. This was her life, it had been so since she could remember. Day after day she was terrorized and fed upon by these wolves in sheep's clothing, and day after day she thought little of the fact her life was anything but ordinary. Not that she particularly enjoyed her life either, but in her world.. This was how everyone like her was treated. Oh...Did you think she was the only one? Of course not! There were others. Some were even packed into the same little room as she was. Sometimes they were even pitted against one another for their captors' entertainment - something Ro would think painfully cliche later on. It didn't really matter at the time, however. None of them seemed to last as long as her though. None had ever been captured so young as she and because of this they fought back -but that was the problem, wasn't it? They always fought back, and when they fought back it always got worse. Many didn't even survive the first night.

Then again... Maybe, just maybe, it was due to her strange regenerative qualities? Who knows. She certainly didn't at the time. All she knew was they bled out faster or their skin seemed to be more squishy and pliable. Eventually the people that had her screwed up one way or another. She never knew the details of what happened but from what she remembered of the operation she honestly suspects that one of their group had been caught by someone that hunted their kind. It was likely after some sort of interrogation that they were all revealed and because of that she was eventually saved.. If you could even call it that. The first time she saw the light of the sun unhindered was painful to the say the least and to this day her vision suffers from her life spent in darkness. The people that saved her didn't provide much guidance either. They just eventually dropped her off at a police station and before she knew it she was dubbed mentally unstable, institutionalize and eventually transferred into a group home for mentally unfit adults - which is where she still currently resides today.

Her recovery, if you could call it that, was hard. It was a journey that taught her to most she was insane and to many she was just as disgusting as those that held her. Apparently killing other people just to save your own neck was more morally complicated than she'd originally anticipated, but well... That's people for you. They all had different opinions, many of which she found she didn't agree with. Sure, these people weren't torturing her in the same manner her captors had.. but just like those spectres these humans held her captive against her will. Just like those spectres these humans told her what they wanted her to think and made her do what they thought was acceptable. Just like those spectres these humans made her feel just as every bit as isolated and vulnerable as she had all her life. The only difference was they hid it behind this masked facade they called 'therapy' and 'help'.

The only person even remotely redeemable among them was perhaps the weirdest of them all. Robert Black was a very, very strange man indeed. The first time she'd seen him she honestly thought he was some manner of demon. Who actually thought that clowns looked funny was messed up in the head, because he looked utterly horrific to her. He was persistent though. He was the first to introduce her to flowers, and the first to accompany her on her first official adventure into the outside world. He helped her learn to read - Even if he'd left many of their 'classes' with bruises and ripped up books. That didn't stop him though, and he was the only one. Everyone else had long ago given up on her but not him. He'd been there from day one, from the first day they moved her from the police station to the hospital - but did any of this actually make him trust worthy? Did that make him safe..?

Notes

Ro is no longer illiterate but her reading level is barely half that of the average person.
Yes, Ro was abducted by a family/group of spectres as a very young child.
When entering the general game this is actually only a short few months after she was originally freed.
Ro hates spectres. As a matter of fact, Ro is currently struggling with a sort of misanthrope and lack in faith in humanity as well.
Ro sometimes actively hunts spectres.

Taken Role


Name: Robert “Mr. Floppyshoes” Black
Race: Specter
Bonded: Ro
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme Song: ”Roustabout” by Beats Antique

Personality: Kind, Outgoing, Empathetic, Focused, Artistic, Spontaneous

Brief Bio: 

"Because if I weren't a clown, I'd be a murderer.” - from The Last Circus

Rob was born of Specter parents. He was raised a Specter, knew his heritage, was taught fully what he was... And he hated it. He saw his mother and father treated their bonded humans, abusing them and manipulating them again and again to feast; the overflow of emotions and physical pain from those encounters was what sustained him in his earliest days. When he was older, he was encouraged to do much the same to his classmates and the neighborhood kids. He did so. And then he hated himself for it. These were his friends! People he was growing up with! While their misery sated his appetite, it rode on what was becoming a burgeoning guilt for what he was doing. Rob just wanted to be a normal kid and not cause such suffering! What was the point in living such a life? He couldn't see it!

Adding to his guilt? His own bonded human. Rob knew perfectly well where she was and what she was enduring, but he was helpless to do anything about it. His parents were reluctant to intercede for fear of trespassing on other Specter's territory. As a child and a teen, he was simply wasn't powerful or influential enough to do anything. He'd dream about her, feel the anguish through the shared connection, and become all the more guilt-ridden and frustrated by his lack of ability to do anything. There was only one thing that Rob could find refuge in – clowning.

His parents despaired of his fascination, unable to comprehend his desire to make humans smile in some small repayment for the miseries he had to inflict upon them to survive. The whole of it became something short of an obsession! Rob studied the history, culture, and traditions of clowning, even going so far as to attend clowning camps and seminars. He created his own character, Mr. Floppyshoes, built an act, and eventually began attending classes at various clown colleges around the country. Initially, he was horrified to discover that he could feed off of people's fear of clowns. Granted, it was the same as more or less eating gruel, but it would sustain him. There was always one in every crowd, at all the parties, and each street corner, a human who was deathly afraid of the grease-painted face and outrageous clothing. Once over his shock, he managed to accept it as a sad fact of life... one that he wanted to change.

Therapy clowning. A way of helping people through difficult times be it in hospitals or hospices, and he was sure to take as many seminars as he could to become great at it. Because Ro? She was going to need it. Rob hadn't just been bouncing around the country during his teenage years and early twenties just to become an entertainer. He had been forging connections and finding people who agreed with him that the Specters who had his human had to be dealt with before they became a problem. Her captors had taken other humans, after all. Sooner or later, the human authorities were going to find them, and then the jig would be up for all of them.

Rob was there. He took part in the raid. Ro might have seen his face among the others, but he doubted it. She was a mental and emotional wreck. All agreed it was better to hand her over to the mortal authorities to deal with, and at least he had the comfort of knowing where she was, right?

It wasn't enough. Rob began visiting Ro in the hospital and then in her group home as Mr. Floppyshoes. He did his best to help in any way that he could, trying to make up for years of not being able to protect her. Helping her read? Showing her flowers? Taking her out on walks? Whatever it took. Including whenever she needs to vent her rage physically. And, on an occasion when she really needed it, he would give her whatever pain she asked for. But never while wearing his clowning gear. Never. Somethings... somethings just weren't done.

Rob has become incredibly supportive of Ro, but also incredibly protective. He's joined the Inked Swallow in part to fulfill some of the promises that he's made, and also to better ensure Ro from other Specters' predations. He's not aware that she's been hunting Specters; if he discovers that little fact, he'll be horrified, because there's only one way to kill one of his kind: by killing the human bonded to it. In the end, however, if anyone tries to hurt her for any reason, he will kill them.  Because behind the painted on smile and silly voice?

He's still a monster.

Personality: Jaded, blunt, compassionate, reserved, perceptive, dependable, trustworthy.
Brief Bio: Percy has recently lost her family due to an automobile incident. She attends high school and seems an ordinary student, however, in order to support herself she has turned to making a living by dancing at a night club run by spectres. Rumor has it that she will 'provide services on the side' for a fee. She is unaware that she has a bonded spectre somewhere out there but she is aware of spectres. Her mother was a human, her father a spectre and they had a pair of twins - Percy and her brother Dakota. Though Percy was human, her brother was a spectre. From both her father and brother, she's had a lot of insight to the spectre realm that most humans are unaware of. When she tragically lost her family, one of her brother's friends had offered a helping hand to pick her back up off her feet. She now has close connections to many members of the Inked Swell gang, their base being the night club she dances at.

Gender: CIS-Female
Sexuality: Demisexual
Theme Song: Cookie Thumper by Die Antwood
Personality Traits: Yandere As Fuck | Easily Amused | Lover of All Things Pink & Sparkly | Highly Intelligent | Can Survive Anything | Monster on a Leash

Brief Bio: Ma was a spectre. Ma was also a whore. Not so much by trade as by the way things shook out. Rasha wouldn't hold it against her if it hadn't meant being the literal and metaphoric punching bag. But Ma died and things got better because now there was only one other person in the world to blame for the shitty existence Rasha'd found herself in. Along the way to murder Daddy Dearest she found Andrei.

Whom she stalked. Lovingly.

They ended up bonding. Which didn't make her less a monster. Just made her a monster on a leash. She'll still commit all kinds of mischief and murder given the chance which is what Daddy Dearest found out. Andrei used his inheritance to get them both out of the country and to someplace much nicer. Well, he also used it to spoil her rotten. Just as it should be since she's his baby princess girl. And if anyone thinks they can change that...well, she'll rip that person's throat out. With her teeth.

Personality Traits: Condescending, posh, materialistic, manipulative, hood, crazy, sadistic, dysphoric mania (bipolar disorder where manic episodes are experienced much more than depression), exciting, playful.
Brief Bio: Hailing from a third world country that’s plagued with extreme poverty, his home country is rife with violence and crime. Despite Andrei coming from one of the few wealthy families, it’s inescapable to avoid the violence, resulting in Andrei being a strange mix of posh and hood. He lived fairly normally until he found himself with a crazy little stalker. At first he was a little put off by it, but it didn't take long before he became lovestruck. He doesn't care for anything but his baby girl and it's clear that he'll do anything to make his princess smile. Which is exactly why they are where they are now, in a land foreign to them.

Brief Bio: Originally, Iona was enrolled in a student transfer program, she had only arrived in the area recently. But rumors circulated that the student transfer story is a cover up and that more stories how she's here on asylum from a wartorn country, or that she was in witness protection. When confronted with these allegation she would only smirk and leave the conversation entirely, letting people choose whatever story suits them.

She enrolled in college only a few months ago, now living in one of the nearby campus houses alone. It became pretty clear moving to the area was to become embroiled in the new power struggle created by the accumulated spectres. The arrangements had been made prior to her moving to the area that she learned recently who she was bonded with.

Socially, she doesn't appear to have a lot of friends, not even with her own age group. The only connection she only seems to have with other people is professional. Other students on the campus had attempted to invite her out to social events but she her answer would insist that she would attempt to make an effort but never show or never call.

As a student she is exceptionally gifted. But more shocking is that she appears to be able to know half of the material before it was even given to her. It was discovered by only a few of the campus faculty that possesses a type of eidetic memory, or photographic memory. But this news only lead to more gossips that she is autistic. A claim she doesn't refute either.

I would imagine either wouldn't hurt, I'm planning on making a human as well so the choice is up to you really.

Heh. I wish I had the time to play 2 characters! I'd do both!

But give me a bit to debate with myself, and let me see what I can come up with. I have ideas both ways.

Sounds good to me! And emotional capacity refers to the ability of most 'human' emotions, or the warmer more positive emotions, empathy being one of those, yes. However, they can feel pleasure or glee, but of course that's normally derived from sinister implications. Hope that makes sense.

And a stat number can go to 0.

Fairy Tail, Natsu Dragneel's theme

Personality Traits: Hot-tempered, quiet, strong-willed, cruel, stubborn, emotionally distant, vengeful, not very bright
Brief Bio: One of the very rare cases in which a spectre was born to two human parents.  He grew up not truly understanding what he was until late into his teenage years.  He was violent, cruel, and rebellious all throughout junior and high school.  He found it difficult to get along well with others and was constantly getting into fights.  He had been suspended multiple times and had to change schools twice due to expulsion.  Considering his poor academic performance, it was practically a miracle that he was able to graduate at all.  Perhaps the only reason why he even bothered with school in the first place would be his parents.  Though he often butt heads with his father, he still loves both of his parents.  He'll probably never realize much least admit to that, however.

Theme Song: "Victor & His Demons" by Fiddler's Green

Personality: Generous, Creative, Musical, Brooding, Temperamental, Passionate, Lost

Brief Bio: A musical prodigy beyond any doubt. From an early age, Russell demonstrated an ability to compose music and a knack for learning almost any instrument, the violin and piano being his favorites. In his high school years he was composing multi-symphonic pieces, and by the time he finished college he had been invited to join several different international orchestras. The money was good, too! When not touring, he would spend additional time composing and selling his work to musical publishers for a tidy sum. While not commonly famous or a household name by any measure, his work is well known and in demand by those in the industry. Only lately, he hasn't been producing much. For reasons of his own, Russell has moved out of the limelight. Friends don't hear much from him these days. At best, he remembers to send birthday cards to his sister's kids. Job offers and commissions have been turned down, and while he has plenty of cash thanks to prudent investments, he's been out busking on street corners and subway stations, or playing gigs in small bars and night clubs. Any pub that has a working piano even half in tune is fair game, and he doesn't even bother to put out a tip jar half of the time! And of late? He's been drinking. A lot. Russell Weyland might still be young yet, but by his unshaven face and the haunted look in his eye, he's seen better days.

I've been peeking at this one, my only worry is with a game that is so tied to partners what happens when your characters partner POOFS from the rp?

Another question.  When does the spectres' powers first manifest?  Are they born with their powers?  How do they generally find out what they are?

Yo, Kitten. Well, hopefully we won't encounter that but these things happen. So, in that case, it would be up to whatever remaining half of the partnership wishes. We could open that exact role or possibly a similar role for somebody else to take on, if that doesn't happen, we could create a kind of loophole that works all around - maybe say, if a spectre abandons his/her own bonded human (for whatever reason, maybe the spectre is suicidal, maybe it has no interest in caring for a human even if that could result in death for themself) then another spectre is able to pick up that bond, given his/her own bonded human is on the verge of death. I don't leave people behind in my games and try to make sure everybody is included.

Quote from: Deathnote on March 18, 2016, 02:01:43 PM
Another question.  When does the spectres' powers first manifest?  Are they born with their powers?  How do they generally find out what they are?

The spectres are born slightly more advanced but they develop as much as they challenge themselves. Spectres are much more instinctual than humans, their bond to their human is instinctual as is their need to feed. But as some may be raised as human, then truly finding out can vary for each. They don't need human food to survive, so that could be one way but adults may assume that they are simply picky eaters. The spectres could begin to notice in school once they are around many other human children. They are likely to be ostracized or disliked by other children and will often get into trouble at school - not always but given their more violent disposition, I'd think that would be the case. And in rare cases, some may not know even until later in life. Perhaps they think their 'appetite' just a psychological flaw, then I'd say they could find out by their apparent immortality. Most are born to spectre parents who will be able to identify and properly raise a spectre child. Some humans may even be able to identify their child is a spectre - which could be for better or worse, all depending on the human parents' reaction. Hope that gives some ideas and helps clear things. Also, a note about the spectre powers because I'm not certain I mentioned it or not, but later on the spectres will be able to develop other powers beyond advanced physical abilities.

Oh, well... okay then, that actually fits perfectly with Ken's backstory.  In fact, I think I'll have him starting out not even knowing what a Spectre is.  ^_^

Name: Charles Castex
Race: Human
Bonded: TBD
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexual
Theme song: Live in Fear by Mark Crozer
Personality Traits: Aloof, Cold, Manipulative, Playful, Secretly Perverted, Hard to describe in one word yet I would say kind of that Mad Hatterish gig, but the more serious version of it if that makes sense.
Brief Bio: When he was younger Charles own intelligence separated him form others, both by his own doing when he found his peers to be boring... and other times when they couldn't understand him. Overtime this would eventually separate him from them not just socially, but emotionally as well. Not that this really mattered when one was able to become a professor at a university at a younger age... such separation was needed. To be quiet honest it is this that creates his close ties to his Specter and whatever it wishes to do... amusing observation perhaps? Or maybe one of many other motivations could drive him? Who knows... at the end of this game after all the blood would only be on a proxy's hands.

Added your character, Andol.

At this point I think we actually do need more characters, specifically female to even things out a bit as right now it's particularly heavy on the male side.

We should also start considering how we would like to pair off the bonds. Feel free to talk about this among yourselves and let us know if there are any preferences. We'll try to get everyone added up as best as possible and please keep in mind that the bonds are not or do not have to be the most 'significant' relationship between characters.

NO LOOSE ENDS; LET NONE BE THE NOOSE.

I have a female maybe two in the works, not sure yet. Just didn't get them done before sleep called me last night LOL. I was dealing a head ache though so I doubt they would have gotten done yesterday anyway hehe. But I'm good today and plan on getting stuff done on E :)

kasper

Heh, I get that, Kitten, so that's fine! Can't wait to see what you have.

Boo are you still gonna make another character? If so I think that might really even things out.

I'm also thinking about playing the role of Percy if nobody is interested in that and then debating on another character I really want to add. I can never seem to start a game with just 2 characters. It is my weakness.

Hob

Nice, Kitten!

Kasper, if you do Percy and Boo brings in another human, I'll see what I can do about a male specter. I have a few ideas there, but I don't want to unbalance anything.

In the meantime, I think I'll leave Russell unbonded and unawares...

kasper

Hey Kitten, the only issue I saw was with Inara and her bonded human - it creates conflict with the whole premises of the story. The spectres die if their bonded human dies. I am open to making a loophole as I said earlier, but mostly only if a writer drops and another writer's character is left without anywhere to go. We could try and do a loophole for the purpose of the backstory where Inara finds a replacement bond essentially within moments her bonded human dies, but I would prefer if the human died of a natural cause or was suicidal, in other words beyond the spectre's protection. If the spectre was unable to protect the human that means they failed and results in death for the spectre. I just don't want the spectres to be invincible!

I think I should try and explain the bond a little better because there seems to be a little confusion which is understandable since it's kind of a weird concept.

Essentially, the spectre cannot live without the bond. No bond = dead. A bond is ingrained at birth. Spectres do not choose their bond. Spectres cannot go their whole childhood without having a bond until suddenly forming one at adulthood. That is not to say that the spectre must be a part of the human's life. The spectre can decide to basically live a separate life though most spectres are driven to be involved with their bonded humans lives, feeling the need to protect the human, thus protecting themselves. So, it is possible that the humans are unaware of their bonds, however spectres will always be drawn towards their bonded human.

Every human and every spectre must have a bond. I would rather you all have some input in the expectations of your desired bond. i.e. If you want a bond where the human is unaware and the spectre doesn't approach until recently or if you want a human and their spectre to be very familiar with each other. If you want a crazy spectre or a more stable spectre. If you'd have any preference to whether your spectre is male or female (even though as stated before, the bonded human and spectre are not expected to be romantic). If you'd rather your spectre feed on your human or other humans. And all this is vice versa for those with spectre characters of course.

So, for example...

For my spectre Kasper, I want him to have a close but tense relationship with his bonded human. I do not have a preference to whether the human is male or female. My spectre has a very strong and violent bloodlust, I would like if the human were disturbed by that. I would like the human to sway between having Kasper feed on themselves and feed on others.

For my human Nigiri. I want him to have an extremely close relationship with his spectre almost like an older protective brother type role. I would prefer the spectre to be a more mature and stable male. The spectre would usually feed on other humans.

I hope this helps some. If there are any questions, let me know! I know this can be a little confusing.

NO LOOSE ENDS; LET NONE BE THE NOOSE.

Hob

Ahhhh.... Starting to see!

So, who wants a successful musician set on a self-destructive path?

(On a side note, seeing as how we have the minimum 4 humans and 4 specters, perhaps an OOC thread is in order so we might plan out relationships and the like without cluttering the recruitment thread? Just a thought.)

CurvyKitten

In that case I will simply have to hold of on my specter, at least until I find a concept that interests me more than the one I came up with. Sorry wasting your time in that regard.

Hob

If I may, why not just keep Nick and not have him bonded to her? From what I've read of Kasper's presented material, specters can feed off of other people; they just need the bond itself to survive. Nick could remain just as important to your specter as a grounding agent (and possibly lover), and his death loses none of the drama or emotional impact upon your character.

Again, just a suggestion, diffidently given.

Andol

Awww well hold on I have a helpful idea... I mean if we are going with a Charles and Inara as a bonded pair... maybe it could be worked out. Charles could have been there when Nick died... given his personality he would have enjoyed putting down those people if it was people that did it. X(




CurvyKitten

But that still leaves her unbounded and losing the person she is bound to when he dies, which with the way it is described kills her as well. So in the end it make my whole back story not possible. It's not just nick, its her mother's death as well, and then the years of bouncing around. With the way things are set, it just isn't possible. Unless I am simply utterly misunderstand the whole setting.

So I'd have to change her whole back ground, and at this point I don't know how to do that.

Andol

What do you mean by unbound... her mother and Nick don't have to be the person she is bounded to in order for them to play a large role in her life from what I understand at least about the Specters, given that the person they are bonded to is decided at birth... sort of a predetermined thing I guess. Her bounded can be her bonded, but she not figure that out till she actually meets them... at least I am pretty sure this is how it goes.




Hob

And her mother could still have known that her daughter was a Specter (or at least suspected it.) Perhaps her absent father was one, a Specter who conceived a child with a human woman but then followed his bond elsewhere? She tried to kill her daughter and failed either because a) she was ignorant of how to go about killing a Specter or b) she relented at the last... but either way, she could still have killed her mother in hunger/self-defense.

Kasper - clarification, please? Can Specters die by other means than their bonded human dying? Or only by the death of their bonded human?

kasper

Talking to Kitten about creating a solution so that she might be able to keep Inara if she is happy and comfortable with doing so, which is why I haven't responded to any of this, guys.

But to answer Justric:

Spectres can only die by the death of their bonded human.

Thanks for putting the revised character up, Kitten, I'll go ahead and adjust.

Ladies and gents, please check out Kitten's revised bio, in short she has made Inara confuse Nick for her bonded human, when really her bonded human was Nick's identical twin. So if any of you wanna adjust your backstory a bit and make your character an identical brother...

Also we only need one more spectre, so I'm going to go ahead and make Nigiri's spectre and put that up.

Yes I have exchanged few pms with Andol and am still trying to figure out if they would be a good fit. I also had someone else ask if Inara was paired and wanted to give both a fair chance to say what their idea was before picking. Seems only fair you know, as I don't want anyone thinking I just ignored them or their possible plotting.

So I'll probably try and start the game tomorrow, guys. Work killed me today.

Does anybody need to figure out their bond still?

NO LOOSE ENDS; LET NONE BE THE NOOSE.

Hob

I believe bonds are still being worked out between a few of us, but that all should hopefully be resolved shortly. (laughing) Maybe we should have just done a random assignment sort of thing. "Pick a number between 1 and 10..."

Why not go ahead and make the opening post to set the scene? This way it sets the tone, gets the story underway, and gives us slackers more motivation to get stuff resolved. Just make a ruling that says no unbonded characters can start play or something.

Are you still looking for players? I'm very much interested in this :) I'd like to play a hetero female, are there any spots needed for this? I could play spectre or human, doesn't really matter to much to me with that. Although I would honestly prefer to play a human if that's available :3 Especially if I can be bonded with a spectre that's interested in my character. (Details about said character is totally open for discussion, I'm pretty flexible and enjoy writing many types, shapes and personalities.)

Yo, what's up?

We'll have to find you a bond, but you can go ahead and get started on a character sheet if you want! You can play whatever you want or there is a pre-made character (Percy) which is open. Whichever you prefer!

We have a pretty equal blend of spectres and humans right now, so you can be whatever you want.

That's great to hear! I'd honestly prefer to create my own character though. Thank you ^^

As for finding me a bond, is there anyone one currently interested in doing a bonded pair with me? If so, please feel free to pm me. I am very pm friendly, and just friendly in general!

ith that said, I think I will hold off from creating a character until I find someone to partner up with though. :) It'll be easier for me to create a character with my partners general interests in mind anyways. x3

Do you have a general idea of what you'd like your character to be like? That might help generate ideas for those potentially interested in making a character to be bonded w/ yours.

Amarlo

I could honestly play Spectre or human, but I am more interested in playing a human. I'd like her to be a heterosexual female and I'd really love a lengthy, building, dark romantic thing to go on between my character and whomever she ends up eing bonded with. Said bond doesn't have to start out romantic at all, the pair can even originally hate each other.  I love me some angst and turmoil  >:)

As for any little details... Well, looks are definitely flexible. Personality wise I'm relatively flexible too. In all honesty I'm not really to sure on what exactly I want to play, which is why I'm hoping someone will raise their hand and give me a character to peek at or something of their own personal interest. I do know my lady will definitely have some sort of dark, and possibly sorbib, past. They tend to be some of my favorite types to play xD

Oh no, our little Ro didn't grow up blissfully unaware of those dark things that go bump in the night.  As a matter of fact her earliest memories aren't much like those of a typical child either.

Ro didn't go to any schools growing up, nor did she have many friends let alone any that were her own age. No one tucked her in or read her stories before bed. No one celebrated her birthday or hid presents beneath a Christmas tree. Nor did anyone take the time to teach her how to read or write. Ro doesn't even remember her parents, and as far as she knows they are long dead. You see, she wasn't anyone's precious little girl - not like the typical precious little girl at least. What made her precious wasn't any of her actual merits, after all. What made her precious was her capacity to feed those around her.

What was more pure than the terror and pain of a child? Even better yet, she didn't know any better. This was her life, it had been so since she could remember. Day after day she was terrorized and fed upon by these wolves in sheep's clothing, and day after day she thought little of the fact her life was anything but ordinary. Not that she particularly enjoyed her life either, but in her world.. This was how everyone like her was treated. Oh...Did you think she was the only one? Of course not! There were others. Some were even packed into the same little room as she was. Sometimes they were even pitted against one another for their captors' entertainment - something she would think painfully cliche later on. It didn't really matter at the time, however. None of them seemed to last as long as her though. None had ever been captured so young as she and because of this they fought back -but that was the problem, wasn't it? They always fought back, and when they fought back it always got worse. Many didn't even survive the first night.

Then again... Maybe, just maybe, it was due to her strange regenerative qualities? Who knows. She certainly didn't at the time. All she knew was they bled out faster or their skin seemed to be more squishy and pliable.  It wasn't until her early teens that someone that would become very special to her was tossed into her pit with her. He was a boy... Well, perhaps not a boy, but he was only a handful of years older than her. He was smarter than the rest too. He knew how to tread carefully and he appeased these monsters that held them, all in the name of survival. It was him who made her aware of the truth. It was he who revealed how her life had been stolen from her, and it was he who planted the seeds of enlightenment and fury within her.

Eventually the people that had her screwed up one way or another. She never knew the details of what happened but from what she remembered of the operation she honestly suspects that one of their group had been caught by someone that hunted their kind. It was likely after some sort of interrogation that they were all revealed and because of that she was eventually saved.. If you could even call it that. The first time she saw the light of the sun unhindered was painful to the say the least and to this day her vision suffers from her life spent in darkness. The people that saved her didn't provide much guidance either. They just eventually dropped her off at a police station and before she knew it she was dubbed mentally unstable, institutionalize and eventually transferred into a group home for mentally unfit adults.

Also a WIP

Name: Robert “Mr. Floppyshoes” Black
Race: Specter
Bonded: Ro
Age: A little less than a year from her DOB
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme Song: TBD

Personality: Kind, Outgoing, Empathetic, Focused, Artistic, Spontaneous, Guilt-Ridden, Determined

Brief Bio:  It is not uncommon for children to rebel against their parents. For the child of two Specters, what better way to rebel than to become a clown? 

He knew where she was. He just couldn't get to her. There was only one of him against a whole household, and young as he was there was no way that he was going to be able to break in without getting caught or be able to fight them all. But there were other Specters out there, ones who didn't appreciate “sloppy” work. And there were those who weren't all that different from him! It was a total affront to the traditional understanding between Specters of respecting one another's territory to at least some degree, but this pack was out of control. Something had to be done before human authorities got involved.

Rob was probably just a passing face to her, someone she saw in the crowd of those who raided the house.

She was safe as she could be in the hospital. It gave him time to learn his passion, a passion that could both help and at least sustain him. Physical pain was far, far more filling, but he could at least some small nourishment from people's uneasy fears; there was always at least one in every crowd, at every party, or just walking along the street. Some people were just deathly afraid of clowns.

A therapy clown in addition to his other skills, he was able to visit her. He could watch over her, and when the time came for her to finally be released back into the world, Rob was right there with her. Helping her, guiding her, caring for her... feeding off of her as much as he hated it. While she might not realize what he is, there is no missing that there is some connection between them. And when she needs it... when she needs anything, be it a hug of his arms or the kiss of the lash, Rob is there for her.

A complex man. He might “snack” while he's wearing his clownface, but he'll never wear the grease paint while he's feeding proper. Some things just aren't done.

I have a question for Kasper. It may have been mentioned before but it's honestly easier just to ask rather than try to sift through all this ooc xD Anyways!

Can the humans tell who they're bonded too? Can they feel it? I'm guessing if they can it wouldn't typically be something they really recognize without the guidance of their spectre or someone else they may just happen to know?

kasper

Not really. They probably get a kind of sense if they were around their bonded spectre (before knowing what or who they are). The human and spectre pair are born with the bond, the spectres can identify who they are bonded with but it's less obvious to the humans though there is a kind of draw to their bonded spectre. Hope that makes sense!

NO LOOSE ENDS; LET NONE BE THE NOOSE.

Amarlo

Makes perfect sense to me! Thank you ^^

Ro


Name: Ro (Short for Roach)
Played By: Amarlo
Race: Human
Bonded: Robert Black (Justric)
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Personality Traits: Paranoid, Guarded, Distant, Hostile, Irreverent, Animalistic, Sarcastic, Witty, Clever, Imaginative, Inquisitive, Improviser, Questionable, Somewhat Sadistic, Self-sadistic, Self-contradictory, Fearful, Angry.
Brief Bio: Truthfully not much is known about Ro. She keeps herself pretty distant from those around her despite her unquenchable thirst for companionship. Unfortunately it's because of this many have come to assume she's either a snob or shy. In all honesty it has a lot less to do with timidity or ego and a lot more to do with fear. After all, Ro is no ordinary oblivious, happy little human. Oh no, our little Ro didn't grow up blissfully unaware of those dark things that go bump in the night.  As a matter of fact her earliest memories aren't much like those of a typical human at all.

Ro didn't go to any schools growing up, nor did she have many - if any - friends either. No one tucked her in or read her stories before bed, no one took care of her when she was sick or soothed away her fears after a nightmare, no one celebrated her birthday or hid presents beneath a Christmas tree, and you can bet no one took time from their day to teach her how to read or write. As a matter of fact, Ro doesn't even remember her parents, and as far as she knows they are long dead. You see, she wasn't anyone's precious little girl - not like the typical precious little girl at least. What made her precious wasn't any of her actual merits, after all. What made her precious was her capacity to feed those around her.

After all, what was more pure than the terror and pain of a child? Even better yet, she didn't know any better either. This was her life, it had been so since she could remember. Day after day she was terrorized and fed upon by these wolves in sheep's clothing, and day after day she thought little of the fact her life was anything but ordinary. Not that she particularly enjoyed her life either, but in her world.. This was how everyone like her was treated. Oh...Did you think she was the only one? Of course not! There were others. Some were even packed into the same little room as she was. Sometimes they were even pitted against one another for their captors' entertainment - something Ro would think painfully cliche later on. It didn't really matter at the time, however. None of them seemed to last as long as her though. None had ever been captured so young as she and because of this they fought back -but that was the problem, wasn't it? They always fought back, and when they fought back it always got worse. Many didn't even survive the first night.

Then again... Maybe, just maybe, it was due to her strange regenerative qualities? Who knows. She certainly didn't at the time. All she knew was they bled out faster or their skin seemed to be more squishy and pliable. Eventually the people that had her screwed up one way or another. She never knew the details of what happened but from what she remembered of the operation she honestly suspects that one of their group had been caught by someone that hunted their kind. It was likely after some sort of interrogation that they were all revealed and because of that she was eventually saved.. If you could even call it that. The first time she saw the light of the sun unhindered was painful to the say the least and to this day her vision suffers from her life spent in darkness. The people that saved her didn't provide much guidance either. They just eventually dropped her off at a police station and before she knew it she was dubbed mentally unstable, institutionalize and eventually transferred into a group home for mentally unfit adults - which is where she still currently resides today.

Her recovery, if you could call it that, was hard. It was a journey that taught her to most she was insane and to many she was just as disgusting as those that held her. Apparently killing other people just to save your own neck was more morally complicated than she'd originally anticipated, but well... That's people for you. They all had different opinions, many of which she found she didn't agree with. Sure, these people weren't torturing her in the same manner her captors had.. but just like those spectres these humans held her captive against her will. Just like those spectres these humans told her what they wanted her to think and made her do what they thought was acceptable. Just like those spectres these humans made her feel just as every bit as isolated and vulnerable as she had all her life. The only difference was they hid it behind this masked facade they called 'therapy' and 'help'.

The only person even remotely redeemable among them was perhaps the weirdest of them all. Robert Black was a very, very strange man indeed. The first time she'd seen him she honestly thought he was some manner of demon. Who actually thought that clowns looked funny was messed up in the head, because he looked utterly horrific to her. He was persistent though. He was the first to introduce her to flowers, and the first to accompany her on her first official adventure into the outside world. He helped her learn to read - Even if he'd left many of their 'classes' with bruises and ripped up books. That didn't stop him though, and he was the only one. Everyone else had long ago given up on her but not him. He'd been there from day one, from the first day they moved her from the police station to the hospital - but did any of this actually make him trust worthy? Did that make him safe..?

Final draft for my clown

Rob Black

Name: Robert “Mr. Floppyshoes” Black
Race: Specter
Bonded: Ro
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Theme Song: ”Roustabout” by Beats Antique

Personality: Kind, Outgoing, Empathetic, Focused, Artistic, Spontaneous

Brief Bio: 

"Because if I weren't a clown, I'd be a murderer.” - from The Last Circus

Rob was born of Specter parents. He was raised a Specter, knew his heritage, was taught fully what he was... And he hated it. He saw his mother and father treated their bonded humans, abusing them and manipulating them again and again to feast; the overflow of emotions and physical pain from those encounters was what sustained him in his earliest days. When he was older, he was encouraged to do much the same to his classmates and the neighborhood kids. He did so. And then he hated himself for it. These were his friends! People he was growing up with! While their misery sated his appetite, it rode on what was becoming a burgeoning guilt for what he was doing. Rob just wanted to be a normal kid and not cause such suffering! What was the point in living such a life? He couldn't see it!

Adding to his guilt? His own bonded human. Rob knew perfectly well where she was and what she was enduring, but he was helpless to do anything about it. His parents were reluctant to intercede for fear of trespassing on other Specter's territory. As a child and a teen, he was simply wasn't powerful or influential enough to do anything. He'd dream about her, feel the anguish through the shared connection, and become all the more guilt-ridden and frustrated by his lack of ability to do anything. There was only one thing that Rob could find refuge in – clowning.

His parents despaired of his fascination, unable to comprehend his desire to make humans smile in some small repayment for the miseries he had to inflict upon them to survive. The whole of it became something short of an obsession! Rob studied the history, culture, and traditions of clowning, even going so far as to attend clowning camps and seminars. He created his own character, Mr. Floppyshoes, built an act, and eventually began attending classes at various clown colleges around the country. Initially, he was horrified to discover that he could feed off of people's fear of clowns. Granted, it was the same as more or less eating gruel, but it would sustain him. There was always one in every crowd, at all the parties, and each street corner, a human who was deathly afraid of the grease-painted face and outrageous clothing. Once over his shock, he managed to accept it as a sad fact of life... one that he wanted to change.

Therapy clowning. A way of helping people through difficult times be it in hospitals or hospices, and he was sure to take as many seminars as he could to become great at it. Because Ro? She was going to need it. Rob hadn't just been bouncing around the country during his teenage years and early twenties just to become an entertainer. He had been forging connections and finding people who agreed with him that the Specters who had his human had to be dealt with before they became a problem. Her captors had taken other humans, after all. Sooner or later, the human authorities were going to find them, and then the jig would be up for all of them.

Rob was there. He took part in the raid. Ro might have seen his face among the others, but he doubted it. She was a mental and emotional wreck. All agreed it was better to hand her over to the mortal authorities to deal with, and at least he had the comfort of knowing where she was, right?

It wasn't enough. Rob began visiting Ro in the hospital and then in her group home as Mr. Floppyshoes. He did his best to help in any way that he could, trying to make up for years of not being able to protect her. Helping her read? Showing her flowers? Taking her out on walks? Whatever it took. Including whenever she needs to vent her rage physically. And, on an occasion when she really needed it, he would give her whatever pain she asked for. But never while wearing his clowning gear. Never. Somethings... somethings just weren't done.

Rob has become incredibly supportive of Ro, but also incredibly protective. He's joined the Inked Swallow in part to fulfill some of the promises that he's made, and also to better ensure Ro from other Specters' predations. He's not aware that she's been hunting Specters; if he discovers that little fact, he'll be horrified, because there's only one way to kill one of his kind: by killing the human bonded to it. In the end, however, if anyone tries to hurt her for any reason, he will kill them.  Because behind the painted on smile and silly voice?

He's still a monster.

Gender: CIS-Female
Sexuality: Demisexual
Theme Song: Cookie Thumper by Die Antwood
Personality Traits: Yandere As Fuck | Easily Amused | Lover of All Things Pink & Sparkly | Highly Intelligent | Can Survive Anything | Monster on a Leash

Brief Bio: Ma was a spectre. Ma was also a whore. Not so much by trade as by the way things shook out. Rasha wouldn't hold it against her if it hadn't meant being the literal and metaphoric punching bag. But Ma died and things got better because now there was only one other person in the world to blame for the shitty existence Rasha'd found herself in. Along the way to murder Daddy Dearest she found Andrei.

Whom she stalked. Lovingly.

They ended up bonding. Which didn't make her less a monster. Just made her a monster on a leash. She'll still commit all kinds of mischief and murder given the chance which is what Daddy Dearest found out. Andrei used his inheritance to get them both out of the country and to someplace much nicer. Well, he also used it to spoil her rotten. Just as it should be since she's his baby princess girl. And if anyone thinks they can change that...well, she'll rip that person's throat out. With her teeth.

Yessir!

I think we caught a pretty good group with each other here. For awhile there, I was anxious that the game wasn't going to pick up - thought maybe it was a little too out there - and then Boo came along and things started hoppin'. Weird game, weird cast of characters and I think we have a good foundation to build a nice little community among ourselves so... I'm pretty thrilled.

We do still need a human female for Ken, so still keeping it open. And Deathnote, again if you ever decide you wanna pair up with Percy you're welcome, but no pressure if you don't want to.

NO LOOSE ENDS; LET NONE BE THE NOOSE.
