I started this rp a long time ago and I am reposting it with some updates. I know there looks like a bunch of writing, but please take the time to read it because this took a lot of time.

PLot:Rose Flynn has always been interested in reading about the Salem Witch Hunts. And everytime she learns something new, she always wonders how those people could be so stupid as to believe that witches were actually real. Soon she discovers, they weren't that far off.

In a modern day society, the creatures of the night are still hidden so close to the human society that it is amazing no one has yet discovered them. But these are dark times for all creatures of the earth because a small group of scientists, researchers, historians, and many other people have taken much interest in the old witch hunts. They are the ones who finally succeed in capturing witches, werewolves, vampires, and the lot. Now with proof that these dark creatures exist, the world slowly falls back into a new era of dark ages.

Where does that leave Rose? Locked up at home most of the time. School has all but been demolished as they are no longer 'safe' enough. Her small five room, cement brick house is a far cry from her old home. Security has a new meaning. Silver and garlic painted into the walls, wolfbane gardens surrond everyhouse. Rose's father has become a hunter, capturing anyone who is at all suspesious and taking them to trial. Rose's mother is part of the grand jury, watching the inhuman tortures of finding out who is evil and who is human by the High Council. But in this mess, all Rose wants is things to go back to normal.

But she can never go back to the way life was when she meets an escaped convicted vampire and is caught by a member of the High Counsel. And Rose soon finds herself a convict too, presecuted of helping a dark creature. Now Rose is faced with new struggles of this once thought mythical world. How can one hold on to their humanity in this dark world without becoming one of them herself?

Information on Dark Creatures (There are a lot of myths for a lot of creatures, but these are the myths we will be playing by. You don't have to read them all but if you have one of these creatures, please read theirs.)

Werewolves: The best definition of a werewolf that I can give is they are humans that have the power to turn into a larger and stronger version of the common day wolf. There fore, they are not immortal, they live to about 120 years though that is very old even for a werewolf, and live by human years. They are stronger than normal humans in there human form. They can only become full wolves in the light of Moon, but can change part way or one body part during the day time and cannot change at all during a New Moon. They must change on the three nights of the full moon. They can range from very human to very savage, depending mostly on pack or non-pack life. They are also blood thirsty, though not in the literal sense as vampires, and some control it better than others. There is a ten thousand year old war between vampires and werewolves, so they natually don't get along, but of course there are a few exceptions. The only things that can kill them are silver, fire, or another werewolf. A werewolf can be formed by a human being bitten by a werewolf, being born from two werewolves, or drinking a specail potion from a witch.

Vampires: Vampires were all once human, but were tranformed by another vampire somewhere along the lines. Since the moment that the poison stopped their heart, that person was frozen in time, dead but somehow still here. They are immortal. Time and space doesn't have any effect on them meaning the can literally disappear into thin air when they run at the top of their speeds. They have a natural thirst for human blood, any magical blood is a speacilty to them. Their skin is pale white and ice cold. The only natural things that effect them is garlic, iron, crosses, holy water, and fire. They cannot reproduce other than poisoning a human.

Witches:There are two types of wicthes. The Wicka are hardly evil at all. They are just very advanced chemists with a bit of added magic. They are mostly potion makers and healers, but can do a small but of magic with their barehands. The Sorcerors and Sorceresses are the witches that can become very powerful and somethimes very evil. They are very talents with their ability to use energy from the air and control it how ever they want. To master this talent takes a lot of practice. All wicthes have a connection with the Other World and can seems psychic to humans. Witches can be of both gender, obviously I hope. They also posses a certain magical gene that gives them powers, so a human cannot become a wicth.

Blood Wolves: These are werewolves that have been tranformed by a vampire. It cannot be the other way around! There are very few blood wolves because it is so hard to make one. Vampire venom can be deadly to werewolves, so too much will kill. But werewolves also have a very good immune system, so too little will not affect them at all. Of the few that are made, they are the most out-of-control dark creaure. They have the natural longing to hunt mixed with the thirst for human blood. They are very powerful, but easily killed by dark creatures and humans alike because the things that can kill a vampire and werewolf can kill a blood wolf. And sometimes they are even more deadly to them.

Animagus: Probably the most human of all the dark creatures, animagi can be discribed as shapeshifters. These creatures do not need a full moon to change into their animal, and they keep their full human intelligence while in their animal form. They can be of animal, and when an animagus is in their human form, they tend to carry out some of their animal habits with them the more they spend time in their animal form. Because they are the most human of all the dark creatures, the High Council has captured some to track, hunt, kill, ect... Animagus aren't anymore powerful than a normal version of their animals, so they can't do much damage.

Smugglers: Simply put, a human or creature that helps convicts escape persuacution and to somewhere the High Council rarely look. They are a dangerious job but some are very efficent at there jobs, the punishment is death if caught but you can normally tell how good one is by how long they've lived, though those are more expencive. They typically have weapons capable of disasembling a Golem and othe Dark Creatures, though they are not considered a Dark Creature themselves. They almost always charge money. (Godzila)

Golems: Golem's are beings made of rock or other materials, brought to life by being pocessed by a heavenly soul to serve their master. All Golems are inheirtly good, but their views can vary on exactly what good is. They vary in size from 5 feet to 20, though commonly they stand 7. Theses massive creatures are used as a police force and guardians of peoples houses as they are impervious to most weapons and are considered light monsters due to them being from Jewish mythology as good creatures. Most are created by use of a holy item that can bring them to life but some can be created by nature for certain reasons, though they are connected to a person that can aid them on their mission. Their power only lasts for roughly two years before they return to the earth but they can be resummoned, thus they have a physical age and a soul age. They can be killed by having a sword or other object driven into their heart and they can be blasted apart, which stuns them for about an hour before they reform. If their summoner is killed, they die as well. Most have very simple names and are unintellgent, a longer name indicates a Golem of above avrage (for a Golem) intellgence or one that in a past body has completed a great task. (Godzilla)

Jersey Devils: A strange species that change depending on the envirnment they're raised in. One raised in a good atomosphere evolves into a beutiful, gentle being. However, one raised in a chaotic atmosphere develps into a viscious, demonic beast. This devolpment occurs in their 'larval' stage, which resembles a small bipedel dear with arms in place of front legs. They enter a caccoon of energy, red if raised in a chaotic area and blue if in a peaceful one. Their 'imago' form share some basic traits, a horse-like head, antlars/horns, wings, and hooves for hind legs and having arms as well. The cryptid known as the Jersey Devil is one of these beasts, thus the name for the entire species. They are all hated by humans, however. The two subspecie have diffrent powers, both depending on how much energy they absorb from positive or negative energy, evil ones have the power to destroy crops with their breath while their polar opposites can do the opposite. They can also effect rain clouds, the evil one disappating them while the good can create them. They're quite physcially powerful and durable but can be destroyed by an overload of energy, making tasers extremely effective on them. Not fearing or having negative energy around an evil one can weaken it and having positive energy can kill one. (Godzilla)


New creatures are welcome, but nothing to out there like an alien or something. If you add a new species, please provide a profile similar to the ones above. Also, if you have any complaints or suggestion about these, please tell me.

Godzilla - There have been some slight changes to the rp from the last still, like Dayla is not Rose's mother anymore. After you update your bios, I'll accept you,

Done! BTW, new character! Thought an extremist on the other side of the war would add to the chaos. This also requires a new creature.

Jersey Devils- A strange species that change depending on the envirnment they're raised in. One raised in a good atomosphere evolves into a beutiful, gentle being. However, one raised in a chaotic atmosphere develps into a viscious, demonic beast. This devolpment occurs in their 'larval' stage, which resembles a small bipedel dear with arms in place of front legs. They enter a caccoon of energy, red if raised in a chaotic area and blue if in a peaceful one.

Not fearing or having negative energy around an evil one can weaken it and having positive energy can kill one.

I'll post my character after you tell me what you think. I thought up the famine and drought thing because it would be a useful plot element in the 'dark ages' thing. Up to you though.

Sounds awesome! Go ahead and post your other characters bio.

Thanks! I'll add two actually. Oh and please add this to the Jersey Devil's bio

'If they're destroyed, their energy becomes an egg with no memory of their former life. They'll also be able to create an egg if they absorb enough energy. Infants are also telepathic but lose this ability upon growing into their 'imago' form.'

I needed a way they reproduce.

History: A creature born during the time the war on Dark Creatures began. The negative energy of the hunts have collected within him, making him basically the incarnation of the sins commited from the begining and he proudly views himself as such. He's extremely destructive and plots to begin an all out war to feed on the negative energy that would result. He wants to kill Rose to stop her medling.
Extra: The more negative things get, the more powerful he becomes.

Thought the being an incarnation of that made sense. Other character.
