Introduction

Character Name: Sienna Jones
Gender: Female
Orientation: Bisexual
Age: 33
Height: 5' 6''
Weight: Rude
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Species: Human

Personal

Personality: Addictive | Follower | Depressed | Spiritual | Artful | Destructive | Loyal

Sin has always had this follower mentality and it has led to her getting into a lot of trouble. Depression was a struggle growing up, and as she grew older it got harder to hide. Her friend group was small, and she liked it that way. They made it easier to survive in the world so she would give anything to take care of them. Even if they wouldn't do the same for her. She enjoys looking for the next rush, and aches for a thrill or a high that will last longer than the last. Even if they never do.

Hobbies: Drawing| Graffiti| Dancing | Baking | Cake decorating

History: It wasn't easy being the oldest in their family. Jojo had it easy, with her parents constant doting and eagerness to allow her sister to grow into the bright bubbly woman she is now. She wasn't jealous of her sister growing up, at least not all of the time. The pressure on Sin was suffocating and only grew worse as the years went on. It was Jr. High the first time she was brought home by the police. Having been caught with several cans of paint, she'd created quite the caricature of their school principal with horns and fangs. Furious, she had been grounded for a month, but that didn't stop her from sneaking out and finding ways to get hands on more "art supplies".

High School was no different, she had spent most of it skipping class and driving her parents mad. When it came to Jojo she always tried to do her best to be there, even after her parents kicked her out at 20. They thought she'd fail, crash and burn and eventually come crawling back ready to accept that they were right. She proved them wrong. Sienna did crash and burn, her addiction growing worse and worse over the years until finally she hit rock bottom. It was her sister that convinced her to get help. Her sister who helped her get clean, but then she started to see someone. A mystery man who seemed to have charmed the pants off of her and recently she has been much more spiritual and open about her journey to get clean.

Specialties

❖ Artsy - She has always been great with art. Most mediums, though painting and drawing are her favorite

❖ Friends in Low Places - Sin has met with some shady characters, and has a reputation for being loyal, and sometimes an easy target. But she knows people who will itch her back if she itches theirs.


Outside Jobs: Sells pieces of her art on the street at times, and works a boring job at a boring corner mart.

Weaknesses and Flaws:
❖ I am Squishy - Sienna is human. Nothing more.
❖ Addict - She's an addict, she will always be one, but so far she has been clean for 5 years, 34 days and 16hours....
❖ Depression - "My depression is chronic, but this ass is...nonexistent...." She suffers frequent moments of depression and it can be hard to claw her way back from it alone.

Extras:

Additional Information
❖ She loves her baby sister, and sees her as the one who saved her.
❖ Her current boyfriend seems to be a man who has her heart, and at times her mind. In reality he is convincing her to think for herself...for once.

Not sure if you guys are interested in anything like villains in this game, but I did have an idea for a pack of roving biker werewolves, cult-like, thinking like the War Boys from Mad Max, run by Josh Brolin as a FC.

Villainous, yes. Storyline antagonist, no. We have lots of characters who are questionable in morals and treatment of others, but no one is an outright villain of the story. This is more sandbox play than a full on storyline game, so antagonists don't really play well into that, in my opinion. PvP is not really a thing in here, save for some talk about a Fighting Ring, which will mostly be PC vs NPC.

Just placing my claim on Alexander Skarsgard, Joel Kinnaman and would like to request Tashi Rodriguez and Kelly Palcy. ^_^

Can do. Look forward to seeing what you come up with. ^^

Introduction

Character Name: Cydney Macklin, née Hirsch
Gender: Cisfemale
Orientation: Demisexual
Age: 29
Height: 5’5”
Weight: 115 lbs
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Darkest brown
Species: Witch | Bloodwitch



Personal

Personality: Calculating | Calm | Creative | Cynical | Dedicated | Incisive | Judgemental | Reticent | Versatile

Perpetually calm and cool, Cydney shows as much emotion as the Moai of Easter Island. Sharp tongued with a dialect that is composed of a great many expletives, she is nothing if not straight talking. Feelings are kept behind a barricade locked down tighter than Fort Knox but there is both a warmth and die hard loyalty there for those who somehow manage to prove their trustworthiness.  There is a well of rage and thirst for savage violence held in her slight form but, much like any other emotional display, it takes a great deal to bring it to the surface. Humour is most definitely used as further armour, and she’s a natural bartender that can listen to anyone’s woes, celebrations or straight out prattle for days, and administer brutally honest but rock solid advice.

Hobbies: loves collecting macabre trinkets: taxidermy, knives, memento mori items and carnivorous plants | hunting down new, old and unlearned ways to expand and deepen her knowledge of her craft | hoarding hard, heavy and obnoxiously loud music | attending live music events and spending way too much on merch | keeping current on names, faces, places and events within the community | fighting the patriarchy | hurting cishet white men’s feelings

History:
Cydney was a teenage runaway that no one was looking for. She left her birthplace, Danville, Illinois, after an evening of her stepfather exploding one too many times. There’s a body with twenty seven stab wounds, folded up in the back of a decaying sedan, in a field filled with abandoned cars and a mother who refuses to speak about her only child and the major withdrawal of her life savings but there’s no missing person’s report filed for her anywhere.

The chunk of change in her pocket managed to pay for a bus, a train and then a shitty fleabag motel for just over a month. The kind of job a fourteen year old kid could get in NYC was nothing she wanted to get involved with, and the dreams of her dearly departed step-father’s blood arcing from his body to swirl in a gory vortex around her as if she were the eye of the storm suggested that it might be a good idea to not come into contact with anyone that might stoke that same flavour of ire again. It was whilst she was squatting with a handful of other miscreants in the abandoned 19th century homes once occupied by naval officers on Admiral's Row in Brooklyn, that she was discovered by The Medusae Phalanx. In a sweep of the area during location scouting, a member had sensed an aura crackling with power and rage. Curious to find out who held such a deadly combination, the young Cydney was found, ready, with a blade, her palm open and the glistening claret of her vitae whirling in a grisly helix.

It was relatively easy to convince the youth into joining their ranks. Along with shelter, three square meals a day, education for both the mundane and magical, she  was given the one thing that had always been absent in her life, a purpose. The righteous work with the Phalanx filled a need in the young woman, chaos and destruction was encouraged alongside cunning and covert means. Her taste of independence made living under the care of others brought about feelings of containment and dependency, even though she knew it was all provided with the very best of intentions. The need to strike out on her own found her an under the table and entirely underaged job at a rundown bar. The owner, Nigel Davidson,  was a regular piece of shit, his portfolio didn’t just include the bar but a rash of dilapidated buildings from storefronts to tenements, all of which he charged just enough and whipped up tenancy agreements that were cripplingly binding enough to keep it’s renters in a vicious cycle of poverty. Nigel was just the kind of person the Phalanx would take interest in: slumlord with a taste for exploitation as he pulled in city money grants to line his pockets with funds his renters would never see. The plan had been all Cydney’s. The notion was thrown out to the Phalanx and the leader of a local were-pack of misfits, former renegades and the forgotten, and the two factions formed an alliance, and eventually a marriage, that’s still strong to this day. The housing and store fronts would go to the Phalanx to regenerate for those that had been victims of Davidson, the empty properties to the pack and she would take the bar and change it into something Brooklyn didn’t have, a safe haven for all of the citizens who were not as they seemed. A place where rivalries and differences were left at the door in favour of loud music, cheap booze and not having to worry about hiding what you truly were. Entirely renovated, obfuscated and protected with iron clad charms, seals and wards, The Slaughtered Lamb has been operating for seven years, welcoming members from the supernatural community from across all five boroughs. Open twenty-four seven to accommodate everyone’s schedule, there are only two rules of the house: don’t start shit and don’t be a dick.

Specialties

❖ You say “Witch” like it’s a bad thing - with an incredible education given by the fellow members of The Medusae Phalanx and a strong, natural attumet to magic, Cydney’s skill reaches over spell casting, conjuration, incantations, channelling, potion brewing, divination, and all that those areas provide
❖ Naturally Attuned - Blood Magic - the murder of her step-father awakened a lineage long since forgotten. The enthusiastic spilling of the man’s blood, swathing her young body in his iron rich life essence revealed her affinity for darker arts and attracted the attention of beings, best left hidden in the shadows, to her existence.
 ❖ Blood Charged - Any spell, rite, hex, charm, scry or curse can be further charged with the spilling of her blood and a few carefully chosen words.
❖ You Scratch My Back, I’ll Scratch Yours - As with all those who practise blood magic, malevolent beings can be summoned through rites to undertake her bidding via the sacrifice of living things. Her natural attunement also makes it easier to enter into contract with Spiritual Demons, she currently has an ongoing contract with Hayden that has resulted in providing him a full time symbiosis with a member of the Medusae Phalanx.
❖ Hemokinesis - the ability to warp, bend and shape blood into a variety of uses. Has been mostly utilised in an offensive manner, by taking the shape of blades, blunt force objects and small projectiles but has been used on the rare occasion as small shields, an extra limb or small tools for lock picking.


Life Skills - Non-Magical

❖ I’ve Seen Worse - resistant to shock and physical repulsion from the disgusting and morbid - witnessing blood, bodily fluids, gore, injury and exotic biology - nothing turns her stomach.
❖ Cheaper Than a Therapist - has an uncanny knack to get anyone to open up and talk, and instinctively gives the best damned advice in town…if she feels like it.
❖ I Know a Guy -holds a near encyclopaedic memory of her clients and their lives, meaning she always knows exactly who to hit up when it’s time to call in a favour.
❖ Don’t Fuck With Me -  can hold her own in a physical altercation, no really, she’ll fuck your shit up, street rat style.
❖Perpetual Student - she is continuously learning, pushing her abilities and finding new ways to wield her craft.

Weaknesses and Flaws:
❖ Grisly Materials - blood is messy, arterial spray is a bitch and the energies it leaves behind are even more difficult to shift. Decanted blood can be used in a pinch but packs nowhere near the arcane punch it does when tapped straight from the source.
❖ Tighter than Fort Knox - trust is a rare beast. Her boundaries and defences run high and tight. Not many have made it all the way past either and once you are frozen out, it’s nigh on impossible to get anywhere near again.
❖ Eight Pints - with her natural attunement, the easiest way to get the blood she needs is to use her own, she’s only technically human and blood is a finite source for a living being. Cydney can bleed out and has come close to it several times. The more of her own blood she uses for magic the more fatigued she becomes, there needs to be a period of rest in order to recoup, both physically and magically. Cydney is covered in the scars of her craft.
❖ Dark Past - she’s done things that need to stay in the past but, we all know how the past has a habit of catching up with a soul…eventually.
❖ Career Terrorist - active member of The Medusae Phalanx, the group has and still currently is, considered a terrorist group by certain, mostly unsavoury factions.
❖ Just as Soon Stab You, as Blink - likes violence, really really likes violence.
❖ Such a Cosy Shell - the otherside of the blade of blood magic is her vulnerability to nonconsensual possession. Usually armed to the teeth with amulets, charms and sigils to prevent such an occurrence but she needs to open herself to a certain degree in order to work with the beings she summons.
❖ Seeing Red - fully embracing her natural attunement has led not only to a taste for bloody violence but the heady properties of blood mixing with her magic, whether she gets lost in her craft or in the eye of a storm of carnage, she can be thrown into a literal frenzy. Over the years she has begun to recognise the triggers and symptoms but sometimes overconfidence or pride can let her coping mechanisms slip.

Extras:

Additional Information
❖  Has a spacious but maximalist apartment above The Lamb that is protected under the same charms as the bar that she shares with the love of her life and husband, Caden “Mac” Macklin.
❖ Speaking of “The Mutt”, the pair has been together for as long as The Lamb has been in her name but they only recently got married a little over a year ago.
❖  Cyd is ridiculously proud of the carefully curated jukebox in The Slaughtered Lamb. There was once a suggestion box on the bar that allowed patrons to request certain songs, artists or albums, that has since been removed after it being packed to the gills for three months, with requests for any and all things Nickelback, in the same scrawled chicken scratch. It was Mac, Mac has an unfortunate weakness for Nickelback and ruined the fun for everyone.
❖  A plethora of various “self defence” items are kept behind the bar for herself and her staff: from a baseball bat haunted by an old mob goomba to holy water and rock salt, and there just might be a common or garden variety taser or two there, every eventuality is covered within grabbing distance.
❖  Does in fact give zero fucks for your shit.
❖  Doesn’t drink alcohol but does like to have frosty cold PBR at the end of a long shift with the Mutt, and still thinks it tastes like dog shit. Sometimes she’ll be nice and pull a shot of the good shit whisky down if he’s had a particularly bad night…that shit’s even nastier.

Orientation: Heteroflexible

Height: 6' 2''
Weight: 200 lbs
Hair Color: Light brown
Eye Color: Green-Hazel
Species: Werewolf

Personal

Personality: Loyal | Patient | Hard working |Good under pressure |Street Smart| Stubborn

Mac has always been the type of wolf to protect those he views as part of his pack. It never mattered to him whether they were human or not. His loyalty is ironclad as long as it is returned. He has patience, and an easy going view of life, but when he digs his heels in he's nearly impossible to budge. He hates PBR but as per tradition he sits down at the end of the night to drink one with his wife while she closes up shop.

Hobbies: Fighting| Bikes | Driving Cyd Crazy|

History: Being the one to take over your fathers pack isn't exactly the brag you think it is. His father was by no means weak and there were a few times that what his old man did was indeed for the pack and not his own selfish gains. He raised Mac to think with his fists and honestly that was the old wolfs biggest downfall. Mac learned how to fight and fight dirty, he was thrown into the ring with wolves bigger and deadlier than he was, and brought to the brink more than a few times. The pits were no place for a young pup, but Mac loved them and the more involved he got in them the more he saw the fault in his father. More often than not the people in the pits weren't willing fighters but wolves and people fighting for their lives. Those who had pissed the old man off or dared to step a toe in their territory were forced to earn their freedom. It sickened Mac and he eventually started to rebel in small ways against his dad.

Usually a "fighter" would find themselves in their own territory away from the carnage that awaited them. Mac would volunteer to fight and slowly the more his fathers pack saw him in and out of the ring the more support he garnered. Especially from those wolves that had family members that were released. The confrontation came to a head the night Mac was caught, and his old man sent him to the Pits. Cocky as hell the old man challenged his own son, claiming that sons were a dime a plenty, if he wanted more then he would have them after killing this one.

Neither wolf fought clean, cheap shots and nearly killing blows were exchanged until at last Mac had his fathers throat in his maw, and if he moved even an inch both knew it would be the end of the now former leader. By rights and customs Mac took over with that final exchange and upon his release Joseph Macklin was forced from the pack and promised that if he returned it would be in a casket.

There were deserters and those who feared his father more than they respected the laws of the pack. Mac let them leave, with the promise that if they came to their senses they would be allowed back so long as they showed their neck. The youngest to ever take over, he worked hard to build the pack into what it is today. Not just wolves but other species that have lost their homes and families over the years. He has no beef with the other packs in New York, and his treaty with Phalanx, a coven of witches that run in Brooklyn allows them the safety of being out of danger of territory fights with other packs.


Specialties

❖ Street Fighting - Mac grew up street fighting from a young age. His dad made sure his son, in his own words, "Wasn't a pussy" and Mac was quite adept at fighting and brawling.

❖ Enhanced Senses - Like all wolves he has enhanced senses as well as speed and agility. Though he has worked hard to improve the last two further

❖ Advanced Healing - He's a quick healer. Nothing like his wounds disappear in an instant but wounds that would usually take weeks take days.

Weaknesses and Flaws:
❖ Typical Werewolf weaknesses - Silver, Wolfsbane etc....
❖ Too trusting - At times Mac can be too trusting. He is often willing to give the benefit of the doubt, within reason.
❖ Forced Transformation - Like all wolves Mac has no choice but to shift on the night of a full moon.


Extras:

Additional Information
❖ Leader of the Pack: Mac is the leader of one of the Brooklyn packs. It is not only wolves. Any lone creature seeking shelter is allowed within the pack and taken in. He knows many people in Brooklyn and can often help members find jobs, or get them involved in the fights.

❖ Rules of the Pack:
  ☾ The Pack is Family - You look after your brothers and sisters. If one of us falls we all fall.
  ☾ Be Respectful - When in another packs territory you do not cause problems. The Pits are where fights are to take place.
  ☾ Full Moon - You do not have to gather together on the nights of a full moon, however it is asked that you find some place secluded. There is a piece of land that he bought a ways outside of the City where his pack can gather together.

Introduction

Character Name: Augustine Lawrence
Gender: Male
Orientation: Straight
Age: 458
Height: 6’ 4’’
Weight: Around 200lbs
Hair Color: Sandy Blond
Eye Color: Blue
Species: Vampire

Personal

Personality: Calm| Collected | Loyal | Principled | Stoic | Discreet | Insightful

August has always been the one to turn to in a crisis. He is overly observant at times, and feels as though he can get a good read on people by simply watching them. Thus far his loyalty to those above him is unwavering, he has his concerns and opinions about coming out to the world, but keeps it to himself. For now.

Hobbies: Hunting | Reading | Collects Historical Artifacts

History:
In the 1500’s there weren’t a great many jobs for someone of Augustine's class to do. He had been raised in a poor family, and it was indeed a struggle to put food on the table. He joined the military at a young age, seeking to raise himself up for the betterment of his family. He indeed had an exceptional military record, and eventually was chosen to join the crew bound for the Americas. He wasn’t naive. He knew the chances of returning, and knew that his family would live well off the wages he’d left them.

The journey had indeed been rough, and when they landed things had felt off to a rocky start. Even as they established themselves, they knew that the supplies they had would not last. They would need more, and when John White returned to England to bring back supplies they were left to do what they could with the resources at hand.

The stories of Roanoke aren’t what people today believe. It always amused him to hear the rumors, and watch the wheels turn behind the eyes of scholars who have long studied the possibilities behind the “lost colony”. When in fact he knew the truth, and had been a part of ensuring the safety of the women and children who survived her Their deal had been struck, that he would take them to the safety of a friendly tribe nearby, and he would return.

Unfortunately for Augustine, on his way to keep his end of the bargain he was ambushed. The tribesmen who attacked showed little mercy in the way they fed, and when they were done with him, he was buried as was their custom. Embraced in the arms of the vampiress who’d become his sire.. His awakening the next night had him starving, and desperate for sustenance. Clawing his way from the earth, he hunted for his first meal alongside his new family and after he was released, given his freedom and willingly he took it.

His journey back to Astrid didn’t take long after, and something of a friendship had sparked between the two. One that has spanned the centuries. A great deal of his time has been spent building up friendships with tribes and trying to help with cutting down the casualties. He’s been a secret weapon over the centuries. Helping slaves escape, and feeding on their would be “masters”. Among other things. When he eventually found himself in New York he caught the eye of the Vampire King and began to work for him. Always accustomed to working his way up, Augustine eventually found himself with the title of Sheriff and has served loyally ever since.



Specialties

❖ Supernatural Speed, Agility, and Strength - Like most of his kin he has exceptional reflexes and strength.

❖ Glamour - He is quite adept with this particular skill. Especially in a profession where needing to gain information in a multitude of ways is a necessity. He has worked hard to improve this ability and still works towards perfecting to this day.

Introduction

Character Name: Sofia Agular
Gender: Female
Orientation: Omnisexual
Age: 27
Height: 5’ 7”
Weight: Rude
Hair Color: Dark Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Species: Human

Personal

Personality: Bright | Open | Joyful | Curious | Impulsive | Blunt | Stubborn | Can be Snarky

Sof is a soft girl. She likes flowers, and scents, and warm baths with all her favorite smells and salts. She loves to laugh and enjoy light, but she can be a bit impulsive and find herself in over her head. Especially when it comes to standing up to bullies. She tells it how it is, and doesn’t hold back, but usually she’s pretty sweet and caring. Life is too short to spend it bitching about every little thing, or letting your past dictate who you should be. At least that’s what she tells herself.

Hobbies: Hiking| Crochet | Reading| Journaling | Making homemade teas | Gardening

History: Sof had grown up in a fairly large family in Arizona. Her dad was a migrant worker, and her mother did what she could while raising five children. As one of the middle children, she had a little more freedom than her older siblings, but was often in charge of the two younger. Homeschooled, she learned a lot from her mother that you couldn't learn in the public education system. Along with the basic Reading, writing, math and science her mother taught her how to cook, keep track of expenses and best of all Sof had learned every single one of her mothers recipes for tea and other special remedies.

At 19 she had realized that she wanted to see the world. To travel and figure out what she wanted with her life. She loved her family but that freedom to wander was offered with her parents sacrifices and she didn't want to see it go to waste. The first couple of years she stayed on the Western coast of the States, and slowly began to make her way east. Odd jobs kept her gas tank full as well as her belly. By the time she'd hit New York it'd been three years, and instantly she fell in love with the busy nature of the city. She became addicted to the cultures and eventually found a job in a tea shop, and worked a few other side hussles to keep the bills paid and food in the fridge. These days she's still busting tail trying to make life happen, and she's loving every minute of it. In fact her boss has recently started selling her own special blend and giving her a cut.

She blogged heavily about her journey around the States, and even more now about her work within the tea shop as well as her book of the week recommendations. She's amassed quite a following, and as such fans have stopped by to give business where she works. Though it has resulted in a stalker, possibly two in recent years.

Specialties

❖ Homemade Teas - Sof loves to make special teas. Something for every ailment. She learned from her mother, who learned from her mother, etc…

❖ Journalist - Sof aspires to be a journalist. There is so much hatred and sad news in the world, with her blog she hopes to bring a little bit of joy and find the positive in everything.

❖ Crochet - She is a jack of many trades. She makes various baubles and pieces to sell at fairs in town, and has quite an outstanding trade going.

❖ Only Human - She's so damn squishy it isn't funny
❖ A Sweet Smile - If a certain someone is around, and offering one of their amazing smiles Sof finds herself melting.
❖ Seafood - Sof is terribly allergic to seafood. Doesn't really matter what kind. She always has an EpiPen on hand.

Introduction

Character Name: Safiya Makori

Looks good. Looks like she and my Merfolk-Shark have similar shops (though Cy is dumb and doesn't know how to run a shop at all, it's more of a hoard). ^^  Feel free to post in the Approved Characters Thread. ^^

Ack! I didn't realize her shop would be so similar to his, sorry. If you want, I can change that to something different so there isn't too much crossover. Or I could place her somewhere else in NYC instead of Staten Island (maybe Brooklyn)? Let me know!

No worries. I wrote him up after you posted your Selkie. I hadn't read her profile before making his. >.< New York is big, there is plenty of room for similar shops even in the same borough. ^^ Cy is mostly just a hoarder.

Ha! That's awesome. *hides hoard of all sorts of writing utensils* I have no idea what that's even like.

I'll post up the selkie soon. Thanks for the approval Jag!

Gender: Female
Orientation: Heteroflexible
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 2’’
Weight: A lady never tells
Hair Color: Black

Species: Werewolf

Personal

Personality: Straight Forward | Orderly  | Stubborn  | Serious  | Dedicated  | Insightful |  Loyal  |  Persuasive

Description: Camila is possibly one of Goro's most loyal packmates. She is steadfast and steady and her heart is full of love for the pack, even if she hasn't been involved in New York. She has a devotion and eagerness to build up and see Goro's dream come true as though it is her own. Practical she sometimes needs to be reminded to have fun, and in the past that was where Goro came in. He reminded her to have fun, and she would reign him in to ensure tasks were completed. She certainly needs to let loose and enjoy life a lot more.

Hobbies: Cooking | Dancing | Working on Bikes 

History: There wasn’t much that Salma wanted a lot of growing up. Her life was good, and her parents were doting and often spoiled her. Her father made sure she knew what she was worthy of and there was little that got in her way of getting what she wanted. She and Goro grew up together, old friends and teenage lovers. Their parents were close too. He often drove her crazy with his antics, but in truth she enjoyed the freedom he held in his spirit.

Her own heart wasn’t as free as his, and she often would find herself too bound by her duty as an only child and the care she felt was needed  for her aging parents. They moved  away, out west and out of obligation she followed. Taking care of them had been her life, and when they did eventually pass she was lost.

She’d moved away not long before Goro took over the pack, and reached out to ask him to give her something, anything to do. She fell in love with the ideas he had, the hope for sanctuary cities. She was eager to help build up those places and help convince packs around the states to join up, or even spread the word for those who were lost and neglected.

Most recently she was in Vegas, working with local weres to build up relations and convince packs to join the alliance. Maybe it was the news of the vampires coming out of the coffin, or the rumors that there were coalitions of weres and witches who were ready to protest that spurred her to return to New York. Whatever it was, she’s back home, and her first stop is to visit her old friend and catch up.
