[INFORMATION]

Character Suggestions/Ideas; Master Vampires generally have two or three master abilities, usually based on what run through their vampire bloodline, some vampires have an animal to call, and can summon those animals and there were-counterparts to his aid. (obivously you arent going to be able to call an animal if it isnt there, such as real leopards or wolves in the city). My point being our Master of the City could have either the werewolves or the wereleopard pard at his call. Also, you can make wereleopards in the pack or werewolves in the pack, theres vampires in the coven and humans.. D: Also, the leopard pard needs a Nimir-Rah (which is a female wereleopard who is Sebastians match; though screening for this character will be harsh because they would be completely bonded to eachother)

I found information about wereanimals and shifting and such;

Pyrites Greyback
RACE: Alpha Werewolf
AGE: 23
HEIGHT: 6'2"
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Ambiguous
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Due to the violent attack that caused him to become a werewolf, Pyrites has two jagged lined scars across the side of his left cheek as well as several other scars hidden beneath his clothing.
WEAPON: Crossbow with a silver arrow, his own teeth and claws during the Full Moon.
LOCATION: Philadelphia.
PERSONALITY: After Pyrites' attack when he was young and his parents abandoned him, he has difficulty trusting those around him as well as controlling his anger and bitterness. He is capable of surviving on his own and does not show any sign of needing a companion or loneliness. He is quick-tempered, and even when it is not Full Moon, the need to be the Alpha Male is evident in Pyrites' demeanor. While he keeps to himself, he is also extremely protective of those in his pack.
BIOGRAPHY: Pyrites' life before he was bitten was very orderly and simple. His parents were kind-hearted, but often did not show the compassion and tender love and care that a child needs while growing up since they were very conservative and distant. While growing up, Pyrites was an only child and did not have a lot of friends since he was not good at sharing and often had negative opinions of his playmates. After being bitten when he was only eight-years-old, his parents had felt defeated over controlling and bringing up their child and abandoned him.
Since then, Pyrites has struggled with being a werewolf, but has managed to survive despite his problems. He wishes to help preserve the safety of others who are also werewolves, but he does it in a very enigmatic and nonchalant way as Pyrites loathes all contact with others.
Appearance: Pyrites' appearance is extremely odd, yet striking. His skin is slightly sun-kissed and clear as night sky despite the two jagged scars across his left cheek. His dark hair is shoulder-length and has a slight curl that intensifies as the Full Moon approaches. Pyrites wears slightly old fashioned long sleeved shirts and pants all of the time to cover body hair that also grows thick and curly the closer it gets to the time in which he transforms. While a werewolf, Pyrites is larger than the normal wolf due to being the Alpha male. His fur is dark and long and his eyes are clear and blue.  

[un de plus pamplemousse]

Anise De Follet
● Race: Human (cursed; is forced at certain times to take the form of a swan)
● Age: Unknown
● Appears: mid-twenties
● Height: 5'1"
● Sexuality: open
● Distinguishing features: Very piercing blue eyes
● Weapon: None.
● Personality: Generally very friendly and caring, but can be sarcastic and moody. She tries to find the good in every situation, and takes her work at the hospital very seriously, though she isn't overly staunch about things. She is very focussed in her work and usually puts everyone before herself, sometimes at the risk of her own health, and becomes attached to staff and patients very easily.
● Appearance: [x] Anise is a petite woman, almost fragile-looking, with long, dark brown hair, porcelain-pale skin and piercing blue eyes, a subtle mark of her curse. Her clothing is always fashionable, albeit a little old-fashioned for how young she appears. However, ever since being cursed, her hair seems to be made of very fine, long feathers, and she appears to have a fringe of small, almost translucent feathers around the rim of her eyes. She looks to be in her mid-twenties, but is actually much older, though she has never told anyone this.
● Location: Philidelphia, the Black Cross Hospital.

Gabriel D'Aubigne
● Race: Vampire
● Age: 353
● Appears: early twenties
● Height: 6'0"
● Sexuality: Gay
● Distinguishing features: the graceful, aristocratic air about him
● Weapon: Gun
● Personality: Quiet and, at times, reserved; an introvert most of the time, but very caring--a rare trait among vampires, who become less human with age. Although he is very powerful because of his age, he does not like to flaunt his power; on the contrary, he rarely uses it unless in danger or if he becomes very angered. He's every bit the romanticist, and can't seem to shake what his bretheren call his "human feelings." He enjoys playing piano or harpsichord, especially when he is feeling particularly morose or introspective.
● Appearance: [x] Gabriel is tall and slender; lithe of build, with long, supple fingers and elegant wrists. As he was of aristocratic birth, he moves with the easy, ethereal grace those of noble birth seem to possess. He has long, silvery blonde hair, the pale, milky skin inherent of vampires, and expressive, slighty slanted grey eyes. He wears very tailored suits almost all of the time, very much keeping up the appearance of being a French aristocrat. He became a vampire in his late twenties, so his apparent age reflects that.
● Location: Philidelphia; member of the city's coven.

Bran Weir
(pronounced "Brahn")
● Race: Wereleopard
● Age: late twenties
● Height: 5'10"
● Sexuality: ambiguous
● Distinguishing features: He seems to have an obsession with the letter nine, having tattooed it above his right brow and on his right middle finger.
● Personality: Bran is an egotist; however, he's not extremely rude. Although he seems arrogant and aloof, inwardly, he' cares for others much more than what he gives off. Having raised himself since he was very young, he's grown accustomed to caring only about what is good for himself, and it takes a long time to melt the icy defenses he's built up over time. He became a wereleopard when he was a young boy, and ever since he learnt about what had happened to him, he has been trying to control his inner beast.
● Appearance: [x] Bran is very much the "tall, dark, and handsome" type. He has long black hair, fair skin, and distinct hazel eyes that always seem to have a façade of haughtiness securely in place. He wears stylish, current clothing that accentuates his slim, sinewy frame. He looks to be in his early twenties. When in animal form, he still retains his slim and sinewy physique, looking rather small for his size, but is in actuality very powerful when backed into a corner.
 

[Freak Show Excess]

Dorian Cromwell
RACE: Elf
AGE: 56
APPEARS: 19
HEIGHT: 6'3"
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Homosexual
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Dorian has the large, expressive, almond-shaped eyes and pointed ears typical of his race. He is also very sexually ambiguous, since he had always been an androgenous boy.
WEAPON: Although Dorian detests combat and likes to avoid it if at all possible, he is a very skilled fencer and can be lethal with a rapier.
LOCATION: Philadelphia
PERSONALITY: Dorian is the kind of person who lights up a room upon entering. He is bubbly, witty, charasimatic and humourous. He generally has an easy time entertaining a large number of people and finds it easy to get along with almost anyone. Even if the situation is rather awkward, he can always think of something to say that'll make people laugh or ease the tension and get conversation started. He's pretty accepting and trusting, which can sometimes yeild bad results for him. However, once his trust is broken, it's very difficult to regain.

Even though it's rather hard to make him angry, Dorian can get annoyed easily if he thinks you're being ignorant. If you get him mad, you'll find he has a sharp tongue and stinging wit. Since he tends to bottle up his anger towards people until he can't hold it in, he can sometimes get a little scary to deal with. However, since it is generally hard to get him so angry, few people have actually seen him blow up at someone, and many tend to view him as a pushover.

Dorian is a very intellectual person who enjoys a good book. He's the kind of person who learns just to learn. People often find him in the library researching or just curled up with a good book whenever he's alone. Dorian is indeed very well-educated, but his sheltered lifestyle has caused him to become very naive. He has yet to learn that knowledge differs entirely from experience.
BIOGRAPHY: Dorian grew up in the suburbs of Philly. His entire neighbourhood was basically elven, just like his family. Because of his elven heritage, he went to a private school in the neighbourhood that admitted only those of elven descent. It was in freshman year that he realised he was attracted to men. He came out to his parents during the summer between freshman and sophomore years. They were surprisingly accepting, probably due to the fact that he was so androgenous.

He didn't realise that he was different from most people until he finally graduated from high school and went out to make his way in the world. Finding out the hard way that humans weren't as accepting of those of a different race was difficult for someone with such a fragile personality. He took his first job as a model for various equality-supporting magazines, but he had never become very famous, as "monsters" have never actually been fully accepted into the mainstream.
APPEARANCE: Dorian

Lily Baptiste
RACE: Vampire
AGE: 104
APPEARS: 18
HEIGHT: 5'6"
SEXUALITY: Heterosexual
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Lily always very intricately-detailed clothing.
WEAPON: Kwandao
LOCATION: Philadelphia, member of the city's coven.
PERSONALITY: Lily's impeccable breeding brought about a very aesthetic, charming, curteous, and slightly pompous personality and a very sarcastic sense of humour. A little on the narcissistic side, she can sometimes seem a bit overbearing, but it's all in good fun. Even though it's rather hard to make her angry, Lily can get annoyed easily if she thinks you're being ignorant. If you get her mad, you'll find she has a sharp tongue and stinging wit. Boredom also does not sit well with Lily. Her upbringing has caused her to be rather short-tempered when it comes to being entertained, and if she finds herself in a situation bereft of entertainment, she can become moody and sulky. Perhaps her biggest flaw, however, is the fact that she finds it difficult to become attached to people.
BIOGRAPHY: Lily was born into nobility as an only child. Since childhood, she has been subjected to constant rigourous training aimed to 'shape and build an elegant character worthy of the Baptiste name.' Her mother was the daughter of a prominent nobleman, and her father was heir to quite a large fortune. Although her parents weren't often around, they were a loving family. As a child, her main entertainment was the house servants. Since she was mainly around adults her whole life, she grew to gain a sense of wisdom and self beyond her years.

One evening when Lily was walking home from the park, she came across a very enchanting young man. He lured her into his arms and turned her. Ever since that fateful night, she has been a member of the city's coven. She had learnt much from him in the short time they spent after she was turned, but fate is cruel, and her master was slaughtered by a werewolf only a year later. She has held contempt for weres of all kinds since.
APPEARANCE: Lily

Bertrand Yule
RACE: Werewolf
AGE: 23
HEIGHT: 5'11"
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Ambiguous
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Various tattoos and piercings.
WEAPON: None
LOCATION: Philadelphia, recurring patient at the Black Cross Hospital
PERSONALITY: Bertrand is a rather aloof individual. He has a strange temperament, usually wearing a characteristic s**t-eating grin, while at the same time managing to keep to himself and avoiding conflict if at all possible, with the effect that he often finds himself in trouble. However, once he feels comfortable with a person, he can be very charitable and tends to be very possessive of loved ones. Not much is known about this mysterious character.
BIOGRAPHY: Bertrand was bitten at a very young age. When his parents found out he had been turned, they were ashamed to have him in their house, so they gave him to the local orphanage known for its care of 'monsters'. He was raised among outcasts, knowing as far back as he could remember that he would never be socially accepted.

As soon as he was old enough to leave the orphanage, he moved into the centre of the city with one of his friends and joined the city's werewolf pack. Ever since he left, he has always been treated with kindness and care at the Black Cross Hospital, and he owes his immense gratitude to the staff there.
APPEARANCE: Bertrand

 

[Maze]

D'Allesandro
RACE: Used to be human, is now a vampire.
OCCUPATION: Master Vampire.
AGE: 440 (415 if you just count his unyears.)
APPEARS: 25
HEIGHT: 5'7"
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Mainly heterosexual. While he is not entirely unopen to the idea of same-sex partners, he's a bit oldfashioned that way. He does approve of aesthetically pleasing individuals, however, and may change his mind about things in the future.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: He is somewhat small compared to the average male nowadays, but then, it's hardly his fault his growth was stunted when he died.
APPEARANCE: His face isn't nearly as aristocratic as his demeanor. His somewhat robust features, however, lend him a feral sort of grace, especially when he's focussing intensely on something in particular. He's aided in this, in part, by the fact that he's a blood-leeching kind of undead who's had four-hundred and then some years to perfect the look. He tends to come across as a quiet yet confident young man on the surface, but there's an undeniable current of power that makes most intelligent people, at least, think twice before crossing him intentionally.

He has short dark brown hair, which curls naturally, and possibly even more so due to its lack of length. He can pull it back into a pig-tail, but he doesn't do so very often, as strands will still escape anyway.

Of its own, his skin is unnaturally pale, but he is no stranger to the artful appliance of make-up.

His clothing varies as he is no mere anime character, but he favours stylish, if practical outfits. More often than not, though, this does still mean he wears suits. Benotti, not Armani. Armani is so last year..

Has a fondness for the colour maroon.

WEAPONS: His tongue. He knows how to use guns, swords, as well as his fists and his fangs. While he is naturally more capable than any mortal, he isn't necessarily the best undead with any of them.

It should, perhaps, be noted that he doesn't fight fairly if there is no pressing reason for him to do so. He does have a specific brand of honour and respect, but it may not, at all times, .. blend well with the going version.

He's a natural diplomat, though, and may prefer other means of settling a dispute over the one that requires actual physical effort.

Besides, doesn't he have underlings for that?

ABILITIES:
Telepathy: Can communicate with others (be they vampire, werewolf/pard or regular human and probably also with vampiric elves as a result of this) through non-verbal means.
Bonds-of-the-Father: Can compell younger vampires to do as he pleases. Because.. well.. he's not the Master for no reason.
Animal-on-call: He can call on (were-)wolves and compell them to do as he pleases, too. But not if they're too powerful. Curses. Ah well, we take what we can get.

LOCATION: Philadelphia.

PERSONALITY: D'Allesandro is a quiet, calm, and confident young (.. well.. young.. ) man (.. well.. man..) who, over these long, long years, has acquired a patience that seems as vast as the sand in the Gobi desert.

Seems. While he is patient, and he is no longer just human, he has his limits. His long fuse, however, does not stop him from dealing with problems when and as they arise. After all, letting trouble get out of hand is just bad for business, and he's too much his father's son to let that continue.

His methods for dealing with trouble tends to range from unusually mild to unusually cruel, although, if there is a lack of malicious intent, surely it can't really be called cruel.. Either way, he has no qualms about ordering someone's death, if this is the quickest, most cost-efficient and best manner of dealing with the trouble.

If long arduous torture as a precursor to a slow and drawn-out death is more effective for the goal, then so be it.

BIOGRAPHY: Born in the same year that Andrea Palladio started his masterpiece Villa Almerico (later Villa Almerico-Capra), or "La Rotonda" as it is known today, and the same year that the Royal Exchange was founded in England (Wikipedia gives different years in different articles, so while I will accept corrections, I'm going to ignore them for this bit XD) to a succesful merchant in Rome, young D'Allessandro - who's first name is no longer uttered nor used - seemed made for success.

While he was not, himself, of noble birth, there was an inherent cunning to the young boy's actions, that were often written off as coincidental and unintentional by those who witnessed the results, but his father saw in him the makings of a great man.

Young D'Allesandro had a head for numbers and politics. His father made sure he got the best education his money could buy, and couldn't wait for his young son to upstage him. It could, then, be said, that D'Allesandro Senior was very proud of his son.

But as the young boy grew into a young man, and his presence and confidence, along with his natural ability for diplomacy curried favour in a seemingly unintentional manner with most he met, he was noticed by more men than just his father. Women, too, but, well, that's a different matter alltogether, one must admit.

A man approached his father one evening, and requested a chat regarding the current financial status of the family. While records of this no longer exists, young D'Allesandro's father seemed to have hit a brick wall of sorts with business.

While his son's favour increased, it seemed that his own only decreased, but never would there be a definite answers as to why or how. Young D'Allessandro had started an investigation, and it was taking quite some effort to uncover anything that even hinted at a conspiracy against his father, but there had to be something there. He was certain of it.

D'Allessandro would not find out in his lifetime, but he had been right. The man who had requested an audience with his father wished to discuss the bright future that lay ahead for this favoured son.

Which words were uttered would never be revealed to him, but the end result was inevitably that the young man would continue his studies under the guiding wing of this.. mentor.

Young D'Allessandro did not balk at this idea openly, but did attempt to discuss the matter, in private, with his father. It would only be later, once he had started to get a grip on his own powers of manipulation and suggestion, that he would understand the rather startling reaction his father had given him.

He didn't see his father again after that chat. At the time, he wasn't very much inclined to, anyway. The man and the rest of his family - his wife, and D'Allessandro's younger sister - removed themselves from the city life to live in relative peace and quiet there.

The mentor was not a vampire. But his master was.

D'Allessandro finished the education at the university he was following before said master took him as her child. He disappeared from the face of the earth. Or rather, he disappeared from the face of the earth where those who knew him would look for him.

He travelled the world, on this mission or that, putting his diplomatic skills and.. acquired abilities to good use for the betterment of his master. This continued for quite some time and account for a good deal of D'Allessandro's wordly knowledge.

Nobody knows - or at least, nobody who's saying anything - exactly, how it came to pass, but D'Allessandro's master did not survive until this day. D'Allessandro succeeded her as his own lord and master, and has since settled in Philadelphia. He has been here for quite some time, and has been 'taking care of business' for about as long as he did so.

Ambition was not something the vampire lacked, so some rumours in regards to the passing of his master were unavoidable, of course. But he made the best of it, and has proven himself a capable task-master.

And, certainly, Philadelphia could do worse than him.

--------------- UNDER CONSTRUCTION ---------------

NAME: "Cal/Hal" the rest is still up in the air. XD;
RACE: Human
OCCUPATION: Bounty Hunter
AGE: 29
APPEARS: early 30s
HEIGHT: 5'8"/9"
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Heterosexual.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: There's three or so lost little freckles on his upper left cheek. For the rest, the distinguishing feature could be that he's really rather unremarkable. Not handsome, not ugly. He's just a guy.
APPEARANCE: Dark brown hair that turns lighter depending on the amount of sunlight he's been getting. His skin is tanned, and as mentioned before, there's three or so freckles in his face. What you don't see are the freckles lining his arms, because he wears longsleeved shirts if he can help it. Nobody teasing him about his spots, thanks much.

His eyes are a light grey, but if he wears blue or green, some of the colour will get reflected by his eyes, causing some confusion as to his actual eye colour. The same works for purple as well, for some reason, but the effect is much weaker, and, come on, like anyone runs around with purple eyes? Not unless they're wearing lenses, man..

He's not as broad in the shoulders as they come, but his not-so-big frame definitely aids him well on his job. You fit behind more things when you're thin.

WEAPONS: Um. Guns. Sniper guns, and handguns, and.. things. Dude. I'll get back to you on this one. XD

.. Also, knives. o: Probably grenades too. A rocket launcher only if I can get away with it. But it'd be soooo sweet.. XD But yeah, I'm not holding my breath for that one..

ABILITIES: Knows several martial arts, was trained by the military was probably in the Rangers at some point, knows covert ops stuff, and is slightly less of a push over than your average human when going up against vampires and weres and witches.

But if he can take you out from a distance without fuss to himself, he promises he won't mind the lack of damage you do him.

LOCATION: It varies.

[Le Papillon Pleurant]

[NPC]

Artorius Beckham

RACE: Vampire
AGE: 100
APPEARS: 25
HEIGHT: 6 ft.
SEXUALITY: Bisexual
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Artorius has been known to wear a silver mask, for majority of his face has been scarred by splatters of holy water.
WEAPON: Prefers a longsword, as well as various torture devices.
LOCATION: Philadelphia, member of the city's coven.
PERSONALITY: Artorius, for lack of a better term, is damned poetic and depressing. He has a very nostalgic personality and seems to be lost in time. His personality varies depending on what side you know of him. Friends would often call him courtly and a gentleman. Others who don't know him as friend or foe would refer to him as cold, distant, and falsely civil. And enemies, if they are able to escape his demented rage, would call him sadistic and dreadful. He has been known to enjoy inflicting pain on people, whether it be mental, physical, or sexual.

BIOGRAPHY: Artorius was born to a very devout Christian family. He resided in Constantine, and when he became of age he eventually participated in the Crusades as well. His mind was warped and corrupted by the bloodshed and torturous acts he witnessed and sometimes even took part in. He repented these acts of violence, but his mental stature would forever remain tarnished by the images that plagued him in his nightmares.

One one particular evening, Artorius went out to fetch some water from a stream and came across a woman staggering by the lake. He went to help her, but it turned out she was a vampire and night hag. She bit him and turned him right on the spot. He tried to flee back to his home, but when he arrived and the priests saw what had happened to him they tried to cleanse him with holy water. The side on his face and his forehead contain acid scars now, which he covers with the silver mask.

Abilities:
Telephathy - can communicate mentally.
Dream-seeing - can enter and manipulate one's dreams.
APPEARANCE: Artorius

Nero
RACE: Human/Vampire. One thing led to another.
AGE: 57 (25 if you just count his unyears.)
APPEARS: 32
HEIGHT: 6'
GENDER: Male
SEXUALITY: Nobody cares!
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Large, bulky man. Bald.
APPEARANCE: As said, Nero is a tall, large and bulky man. He's got well-defined muscles that he knows how to work. He's the type of no-nonsense guy that gets hired as bouncers. Tends to wear mostly black, to maximise his cool-ness factor. Wears a gold necklace under his t-shirt/sweater/whatever. The hanger is a nonsense thing. It's a weird shape, but nobody knows what it is. Nero likes it, and that's the important thing.

WEAPONS: Is an underlings who prefers settling a dispute with physical effort. He likes to hit things. Was a professional boxer for a while, so is pretty good at it. Was also in the army, so can work weaponry pretty darn well, sonny.

ABILITIES:
He's got the super speed and strength that comes with being a vampire. What more do you want? I don't think he needs anything else, really, so I'll leave it at that.

LOCATION: Philadelphia, member of the coven. Good boy.

PERSONALITY: Likes to intimidate people with his large bulk. Slightly vain. Immeasurably proud of his bald head. I didn't ask if he was a smoothie, because, frankly, I didn't care. He's a bit of a bully, but won't go against D'Allessandro's word, because he's a bit of a coward like that, too.

He's crude of mouth, and doesn't do all that fancy crap. He'll be good if you're important or something, but that doesn't mean he has to like it.

BIOGRAPHY: He got born, he grew up, he got bitten, he's here now! Okay, so that's a little too short, I suppose. How's this; He was in the army, because there were no jobs that required the precise amount of aggression that young Nero displayed. He got kicked out for disorderly conduct or some such nonsense.

Nero proved the world that they were wrong by getting s**t-bastarded for about a week straight, and moved into circles less reputable ever after. Someone made him an offer, he didn't refuse, bada bing, bada boom, BAM, instant body-guard 'show me where to hit 'em' man.

Is sometimes referred to as D'Allessandro's dog, because he accompanies the other from time to time on business trips (like the one involving Gerald Hayes earlier), but not generally in the vampire's face. He likes those business trips best where he does more than just look intimidating.
