{ OOC } Subspecies Registration for Enrolled Students

[WE ARE HALLOWEEN]

Subspecies Registration

Got your character enrolled and want to add their species to the main species list? You've come to the right place! While you don't HAVE to add your species to the list, it's really beneficial just in case another person has the same species as your character and gives them completely different lore. While we're a-okay with characters from different clans, we would like to keep a basic description that applies to ALL members of the same race.

Clans:
While in Halloween there are many citizens that share the same species, they may have different practices and natural abilities. These are called "clans." For example, all werewolves have the ability to turn into wolves. Some werewolves turn into the regular four-legged variety, whereas other werewolves can only turn into a mixture of half-man, half-wolf. Thus, there are two different "clans" of werewolves.

When creating your character, your character's natural ability determines their clan. You may only have ONE starting natural ability per character.

In addition, just because two characters share the same natural ability does not mean they are from the same clan. Different clans can have the same abilities, but still have different practices. In addition, if you want to have two people be from the same clan, they can have different natural abilities! It's really your call as the player as to what sort of background you'd like your own character to have.

Natural Abilities:
If your character has a natural ability that isn't working out for you (ie it makes no sense to RP it or you have difficulties doing so), please head over to this thread! We will work with you to tweak it, or assist you in coming up with an entirely new one!

How to add:
To add a race to the subspecies lists, please use the following form. Keep it short -- one paragraph long at best. The admin reserve all rights to edit your species list into a more manageable size OR change information around to fit the setting.

PLEASE DO NOT POST HERE UNLESS YOUR CHARACTER IS ENROLLED!
At this time we are only interested in adding ENROLLED student subspecies to our lists, thank you!

TO ADD:
Simply edit and post this form!

B::

- Bhoot::
xxxxxCommon Desc: Attention seekers at their core, Bhoots enjoy practical jokes and pulling pranks. They dislike direct confrontation, seeking only to enjoy themselves. However, Bhoots are rather restless and dislike to stay in one place for long.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Chameleon: Bhoots are quite fond of changing their color and shape to match whatever prank they are trying to achieve. While the transformation is instantaneous, a Bhoot can only maintain this form for less than five seconds. Every second counts! smell.

If you have any questions, please ask!

F::

- FUTAKUCHI-ONNA::
xxxxxCommon Desc: Literally meaning "two-mouthed woman", they are an all female species of monster. They are always female, there are no male Futakuchi-onna, no exceptions. They are characterized by a second mouth in the back of her head with an insatiable appetite that is able to speak, usually in a manner threatening toward its host, and their living hair. Despite its downfalls, a futakuchi-onna's most prized feature is their long hair. To cut their hair would be like cutting off a vital limb; a futakuchi-onna with short hair might as well just be dead or human.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Living Hair: Their second mouth controls their hair and is able to move it freely as they wish (For example, it can be used as 'hands' to grab and pick up things). The Futakuchi-onna is also able to control her hair, but this takes practice and concentration because of the interference of the second mouth's will, though it will occasionally react to the futakuchi-onna's emotions if they are strong enough.

I::

- IGOR::
xxxxxCommon Desc: The classic accessory to any self respecting mad scientist, Igors aren't usually built "fresh" but recycled from parts of old ones, so young/fresh Igors are usually very rare. Unlike other patchwork minions, Igors are built to loom and lurk and assist without asking questions. It is a standard for them to be hunchbacked and created from "bottom of the barrel" Parts after all the "good" parts have been taken for more important patchwork projects. They are usually dim and almost dog-like in mentality with an obsessive need to serve. An Igor without a Master is a dangerous thing. When young, Igors are usually subjected to rigorous "training" to separate any notion of Self to replace it with love of their Master. Traditionally, they have a penchant for kidnapping beautiful girls.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Interchangeable Parts: Just like any Patchwork, Igors are able to swap out their limbs and other parts. This is usually most useful because they are used as guinea-pigs and minions for more dangerous activities like pulling that other Igor corpse out of that vat of acid.

P::

- PRICOLICI::
xxxxxCommon Desc: It is said when a werewolf is killed prematurely and their head is not removed, they rise again as a monstrous vampire with wolf-like tendencies. Pricolici are considered to be mostly aggressive males simply because the more demure ones, as well as the females, are smart enough to stay out of sight and hide up their presence as well as possible. They favor attacking lone targets rather than groups and may, in some cases, suffer a milder form of the bloodlust that vampires do. Pricolici cannot be born from a pumpkin because of their origins. Their children are always born as live werewolves.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Shapeshift: As in life, the Pricolici is able to transform between a human form and a monstrous wolf form. Unlike a werewolf, however, their transformations outside of Halloween are unpredictable and can't be counted on to only happen by moonlight alone.

A::

Arctic Gryphon::
xxxxxCommon Desc: Arctic gryphons are a rarer northern breed of gryphon. They don't differ much from their cousin except in size and fur fluff. Arctic gryphons are a little bigger and fluffier then a regular gryphon and have a wider wing span. Their heavier white fur makes for living in snow with ease and comfort.
The also tend to be very good at treasure hunting and treasure guarding. You do not want to try to steal from them.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Healing Feather: The feathers from arctic gryphons can be used to help heal an injury a little faster then it would on its own, however each feather can only be used once.

P::

- PLAGUE DOCTOR::
xxxxxCommon Desc: Plague doctors have been denizens of Halloween since the time of the human Black Plague. They always wear beaked masks on their faces, which they are unable to remove without severe consequences. They may also posses other avian features. Beneath their clothing and bandages, plague doctor bodies exist in varying states of decay. Unless they have artificially or magically augmented themselves, plague doctors are physically gender-neutral - though, naturally, individuals may mentally possess any gender identity they wish. Plague doctors usually live in tightly-knit clans referred to as Houses (or Casas, or any translation of the word 'house' in a European language). As a race, they are inclined towards the study of medicine, disease, and the sciences; it is not impossible for a plague doctor to wish to be a musician, but it is unlikely.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Immunity: Plague doctors are immune to the effects of any germ, pathogen, or illness, whether spawned from the Human World or from Halloween Town itself.

Monster

H::

- Hellhound::
xxxxxCommon Desc: The hellhound has been considered a demon dog or hounds of bad omens for many centuries because of their appearance. Dark black medium long fur and glowing eyes, normally red or yellow. Some breeds are much closer to ghosts based on their phantom-like limbs. They tend to congregate at less trafficked ominous areas such as graveyards, and cemeteries and abandoned towns. While they are a very elusive breed of creature to find, it is considered an omen of death to meet one and stare into its eyes.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Shapeshift: As a method of hiding, the hellhound is able to shift between their animal form and human form with the exception that the human form must retain an animal aspect to them. ( Retaining their ears or tail, or even fur on their bodies. ) Their method of transformation is not limited by the moon cycle however it is random outside of Halloween's boundaries.

Monster

T::

- Tatzelwurm(wyrm)::
xxxxxCommon Desc: In archaic times, the Tatzelwurm was described as a huge dragon which watched over the woodlands it inhabited. Later, it was said to live in holes, waiting for unwary prey to wander by, and then spring out for an attack. One thing always remained constant, however: once the Tatzelwurm saw someone, it launched a snarling, whistling, flying attack of both fang and claw. Most commonly described as a sort of reptile with the face of a cat, it is described varying in the number of clawed legs it possesses, if any. As to the type of skin, its long body can be smooth, scaly, wart or fur-covered. Some accounts also give it the mane of a horse.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • High Jump: Tatzelwurms lacking wings have still been credited to fly but, truly, this is just their innate leaping ability at work. They can jump great distances.

xxxxxCommon Desc: Południca are known as "noon demons," their appearances linked with field bounds and the sun. They are the harbingers of madness and heatstroke. They are a female-only species, producing offspring by a pairing with any other type of demon. Most all południca have fairer hair, white skin, a set of sharp, fine teeth, and pale eyes; the size of their horns changes as they mature in their capabilities. As a family group, they are generally matriarchal.
xxxxxNatural Ability:
xxxxxxxxxx • Shapeshift: A południca has three forms: a child's form (the only form that growth is seen in, peaking during their early teens), a woman's form (giving the poludnica an appearance of a woman in their mid-twenties), and a hag's form (wrinkled and hunched over). Certain body parts can be chosen to be shifted (i.e. hag's hands on the child's body).
