The Midnight Hour OOC read before posting
 
The Midnight Hour

[Banner coming]

The night is dark and there is nothing more than the soft breeze drifting through the trees that surround you. Not far off you can hear the sounds of the forest. All is peaceful. In the heat of the moment, you run off into the darkness; the unknown. There are many creatures that creep in the darkness. Some are not what they may seem. Even the small rabbit that darts from your path may become something else in the blink of an eye. This is the mystery of the Midnight hour; a time when nothing is truly certain.

This will be an RP that will outline the lives of the creatures that lurk in the night. Most are not bad at all and just want to keep their secret in a world where so many people are shunned from society on the little things that make them different from the majority.

This is an OOC thread for this new Role play to begin. Also we’ll be looking for other characters. At the moment our characters are all in one crazy mixed up pack of shifters/lycanthropes/were____. Any one is welcome to make a character. All we ask is that you follow a few rules/guidelines that we’ll list later in this thread. All new characters that are not created by us must be rp’ed into the pack if we choose to do so. This could change but we’ll stick with this for a while.

Creators:
Master Wild Mage and Edana Little Flame

We both have the majority of the characters with 4 each. Some may be fazed out at later date and some are here to stay. People may recognize some of these characters from other RPs that we’ve moved them here or changed them a little bit to fit into the realm of this RP.

With that said I’ll have to tell you the bad news. We both have busy lives. Sometimes it may possibly be a couple days until we’re able to post. This is rare but it does happen. It’s the cruel truth of things and we’d be lying if we said anything other than this. If you don’t like it don’t bother to apply. Complain and we’ll ask you to leave.

For character profiles please fill out this form and post it here. (not in the RP thread once it is created.) We’ll OK it or we may ask you to change a little something.

Guidelines when creating Shifter/Werecreature characters.

Simple rules to go by so we can avoid the confusion of characters that with completely different abilities but are the same race.
  • -3 forms(some exceptions)The size/age of the person reflects in their other forms. large anthro, slightly larger than natural forms, and human form.
  • -can change at any time
  • -changing on full moon is mandatory
  • -Partial changing comes with time, training and control.
  • -can be born with lycanthropy/shifting is infected though it is very hard to catch the virus. Very violent bites or blood to blood transfer to catch.
  • -When unplanned change happens, resisting may work but can be painful. The newer to the life: the more painful to achieve. The lower their control makes it less likely that resisting the change will work. (Most likely to still change.)
Info on creating a Non-shifter/Werecreature
  • -For people that chose to be non-shifters/lycanthropes there will be no written rules (with the exception of Riley's abilities.) PM us about abilities before using and we'll give the Ok or not. We'll be very lenient.
  • -Any abilities we Ok will be made into rules.
  • -If you would like to "break" on of the rules and you give us a very good reason we'll more than likely Ok it.

Master Wild Mage 12-26-2007 07:15 AM

Scale for a shifter/Werecreature's control of their abilities.
This is a kind of guideline. There are always things that don't follow the norm. This is to keep everyone from being extremely over powerful and take over the rest.

Control:
-Complete Newbie to the Fur Life
  • Change when angered or other extreme emotion (high stress level)
  • Unable to change easily, may cause pain
  • Often unable to stop once change starts
  • Change can be triggered by others changing within sight of another changing as well.
-Young kid to teen or a few months to around a year infected
  • Can change at will. It would be more painful than full moon changes and take concentration.
  • Able to hold onto humanity in stressful situations to a point. They're still not really good but they can function well in normal life.
-Older teen or around 2 years being infected.
  • Changing at anytime isn't a problem.
  • Emotion effects mannerisms but not force a change. This means they will sometimes growl and do animal posturing without thinking instead of going to full fur.
-Early 20s or around 4 years infected
  • Can hold onto humanity without any problems
  • Nothing can force a change and they are able to change to any extent they wish. (partial changes-one part at a time)
  • If they change or use any animal ability it is by choice and not because they are unable not to.
Bitten versus Born With
There are some differences from werecreatures and shifters that have been bitten and infected with the abilities and senses instead of one that has had it passed down through their families. Here we'll lay these out for you.
Born with it:
  • -Control is usually more defined due to the fact that they never had to relearn the fundamentals of living as an animal like those that have to learn it after they've lived as a human.
  • -Can have more than one species or a mixed species animal form. Comes from having mixed bloodlines. When bitten by a mixed breed, The animal most predominant will be the one that is passed on.
  • -When you're born with the ability/disease you are immune to contracting any other strain of it.
Infected with:
  • -Everything must be learned in your animal form. It's almost as if you're animal form is a baby. (not in body) Everything from how to use senses properly to walking.
  • -you can have only one animal counterpart. No cross breeds from being infected. Once you've been bitten by one you're immune to all others.

Master Wild Mage's Characters

Some of these are my personal art work so if you'd like to use them for anything please ask first. I detest art thieves.


Tera:
Appearance:[x]
Gender: Female
Age: 20 yrs
Race: Werewolf (gold/orange)
General Personality: Tera is the kind of person that must always have a plan and is very afraid of her feelings for other due to things in her past that have shown her that the ties she makes with people, no matter how strong, can be broken in an instant. She has a love for Mateus that she doesn't understand. If asked she'll respond she loves him as a brother. She won't even admit the love as something more to herself. When Tera becomes angry everyone better look out. There are few that she won't lash out at. When she attacks someone in anger it will most likely be with teeth and claws/fist. (Many have scars that match her bite marks...Lycan.
Other:Adapted from my character, Amaterasu, from Devil’s Playground and Changing Times.


Riley:
Appearance: Human form Wolf form
Gender:female
Age:22 yrs
Race:Half Werewolf and Half Vampire [white/gray wolf form no anthro due to vampire blood]
General Personality:Though Riley isn't the oldest of the little pack she is the one that acts as a mother figure. Though she's fighting a loosing battle she tries her hardest to keep the others from hurting herself too badly. When others threaten anyone she cares about they are in for a very rude awakening. She may be small but they will definitely regret whatever they had done.
One sad things is that because he her hybrid status she can never have children. Riley also had a twin brother that she had gotten separated from after they were both exiled from their pack.
Other: Riley has always been very pale because of her Vampire half. Sunscreen is this girl's friend.


Kade:
Appearance: Kade's horse form
Gender: Male
Age: 24yrs
Race:Horse shifter (has only human and horse form)
General Personality:coming


Jermayan:
Appearance: human anthro
Gender: Male
Age: 23yrs
Race:Wereleopard (snow leopard)
General Personality:Coming


Keiyi:
Appearance: Keiyi's human formPale skin and light features with eyes that are always red no matter her form. It can be very unnerving and most will not look her in the eye for more than a few moments. On the back of her neck just under her hairline is a patch of white scales that trail down her spine to a point right between her shoulder blades. It's a side effect of being in her snake form too long and often.
Gender: Female
Age: 16yrs
Race:White Were-Cobra (has only human and snake form.)
General Personality:Keiyi can be considered a typical teenager. She is normally fun loving and loves to joke around and flirt shamelessly. There are times when can be very emotional as well. Beware if you really piss her off though because in her cobra form her venom is just as poisonous as the real thing. One of her favorite past times is dancing. She has been compared to a charmed snake while in a dance induced trance. While doing everyday things Keiyi often makes every movement look like a graceful dance as well.
Other: Because her other half is a cold blooded creature her body temp is always very low when compared to a normal humans'. She will often cuddle with others when she's feeling particularly chilly. It falls into her being very flirtatious.

He is actually shy though and tends to keep to himself and Tera only. He does however feel a little comfier around the rest of the 'pack'.

List of character not created by thread-masters

Age: 17
Race: Werewolf

She is fighting to understand what is going on and tends to like to pretend like theres nothing wrong, that she really dosent at times turn into a big wolf or werewolf


USERNAME:Herkamyrh
Character Name:Xolin Y'zendurk

Defining traits/abilities: As a changeling, Xolin has the ability to take on the appearnce of several different humanoids ranging in height from 3 1/2 feet clear up to 7 feet. Any more or less and Xolin runs the risk of straining his control and revealing his true nature as a shapeshifter.

Master Wild Mage 12-27-2007 08:45 AM

Setting:
We seem to have forgotten that when we invite other people we sorta have to tell them about what exactly our rp is. We're sorry to those that are completely thrown for a loop with our rambunctious oddities. Hopefully this will clear some things up.

In short it's just how the non humans of the world would live in a human world. Edana's and my charcters are all living in an old hotel. Each has their own room that they selected by simply choosing a key from behind the reception desk. They all share the kitchens that are in the first floor. Use the elevator at your own risk. Though our little pack is kind of established you can bring your characters in if you'd like. Beware that some may not make you feel very welcome. You can chose to insinuate your characters in, in anyway you please. A pack that wants to take over their little home for their own, fellow employees, friends from outside the pack are all positions you're welcome to take. This is where other creatures like vampires and humans is you'd like to be come into our scenario.

If anyone doesn't really understand or you have an idea that you're not sure fits in our rp all you need to do is ask. We don't bite. That's just our more violent characters.
Tera: I'm not violent. I'm just very irritable.

Herkamyrh 12-28-2007 12:36 AM

so, anyone else plan on playing?

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 07:47 AM

One would hope!

Master Wild Mage 12-28-2007 07:47 AM

That's what this thread is for really. though it's kinda still just a chatting place about the plot since I haven't gotten to post all of our profiles.

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 08:09 AM

Yeah she is so lazy she did not post them yet! Jeez girl! :D

Master Wild Mage 12-28-2007 08:12 AM

Says the one that is waiting for me to post so she can copy and repost them in the rp thread itself.

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 08:16 AM

Exactly! That is the way to do it! By the way the event shop is closed!

Master Wild Mage 12-28-2007 08:17 AM

I know but the items are still available at double the price in the regular shops. I just have to save up a hell'a'lot more now.

oh and please reply to the other rp so I can reply and go to bed so I can get my new car in my name early in the morning.

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 08:37 AM

Which one? I have replied to them! And have fun with the car! We want granny!

And I meant because you still had the whole "before the event shop closes" thing up!

Master Wild Mage 12-28-2007 08:48 AM

I meant in Halloween everyday. I'm shortening it to HED from now on. So much easier to write. I've replied now as well and if you reply before I finish this I'll most likely will again. I'm addicted to this now and I don't want to be left behind again.

Money first chicklet

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 08:52 AM

Duh dimmy! I knew that I was only telling you that we did!

I have and I do agree! Yeah me and Star made a deal for this to happen!

Master Wild Mage 12-28-2007 08:59 AM

I do love how you and I don't care what we do with each others character. We just go with it. >.< Don't kill me please! We can have fun saving her we just won't be successful.

Edana Little Flame 12-28-2007 09:20 AM

Sounds good! Just don't kill my other character!

Herkamyrh 12-28-2007 03:52 PM

I was wandering, do i have to be a were-whatever? I was hoping I could be a changeling (race descended from dopplegangers and humans). They aren't particularly powerful like normal dopplegangers. I can pm you my characters profile if you want.

Edana Little Flame 12-29-2007 01:42 AM

PM it to me and I will talk it over with wild and we will decide. I really don't see a problem with it, cause the whole idea is just "special" people trying to make a way in the real world.

Just as a heads up we both know what changelings are!

Herkamyrh 12-29-2007 03:59 AM

well u know, I feel the need to specify since a changeling can be a kind of doppleganger while others can be faeries. Just trying to avoid any confusion.

Edana Little Flame 12-29-2007 07:32 AM

Oh no no no, thats cool. I am sorry if that sounded mean I just meant it as informative!
