Witches and Lycans and Vamps, Oh My! « Thread Started on Dec 24, 2007, 7:27am »
To help you made a richer, more informed decision on what your character will be and why. I've made up a handy, dandy reference on all the major types here at Dusk. These are in reference to Dusk specifically so something a vampire can do here may not apply to all other sites.

Witches Double, double, boil and trouble- Lets admit it, Macbeth's witches were ugly as sin and had as much hex appeal as your great aunt Bubbi. The witches here are beautiful, smart and sexy. You wont find a wart on their pretty noses. On Dusk, the witches run in a coven (or group) system rarely will you find a solitary practitioner. They normally stick to one type of magic. For instance: Blood, Earth, Dark. Again, most of the witches here run on the good side of things. No wands are needed for them but you can use one if you'd like. These girls (and potentially boys) arent trapped in a Harry Potter World.

Lycan/ Were
Come and howl at the moon. Since the war started, all the packs of Lycans (or werewovles) have been exterminated. Those who are left behind run in a team, less formal than the traditional pack. Although they can transform at any time they choose after they survive their first change, most of them save it for the full moon. The change takes incredible amounts of energy. Weres don't have flashy powers but they all share a few things in common. They have strength beyond that of a normal human and, maybe its just our special Dusky lycans, they tend to be stubborn and mischievous.

Vampire
Everything a creature of the night should be: dark, mysterious, sexy- These are the vampires of Dusk. They perform on a feed to survive/ please basis and their... victims normally survive the encounter. They have super strength and some mind control abilities.

The Elementals
The Elementals are a fun bunch that really know how to party. They cover the four Elements and much more (light, dark, shadows). They are generally the ones to use their abilities to their advantage by using them to teleport, change clothing, creating special currency (Valley Elementals only for that one), and even cook food. The Valley immortals are the most dangerous because their powers works at a distance. Get a group of them together and you're looking for a good time.

Elves/ Fey/ Dryads
You wont find these elves in tights- Or at least, we'd hope not. Looking mortal with the exception of their pointy ears, they blend in well in both worlds. They are not allowed to hurt humans- making them a mortal favorite. Beware though- Just because they are normally passive, doesnt mean they're pushovers.
Fey Picture children with wings? Well think again. The Fey are an ancient line that look like everyone else- Until they reveal their monarch wings. Mischievous and high energy, they like to be the life of the party. They also are very in touch with nature but can contain other gifts too. They traditionally live in courts, very much like those of the medieval times. It breeds a certain amount of snobbery into them.
Shy and passive, Dryads not try and stand out. Like their leafy homes, they try and remain part of the mores and not the trees. Their groves were destroyed during the war and a lot of them passed on but some trees were saved and moved into Gaia.

Humans
Muggles, mortals, snacks- They're called different things depending who you ask. The adversary in this war they've gotten a less than stellar reputation among the mortals. Some are good though, just like immortals and others are bad. They come with a range of talents and gifts.
Just so that everyone is aware, this cbox is gernally in character.
This means, things happen and people argue and people don't- don't get offended and don't get silly....
Advertising is the only thing thats NOT put up with here. We have a forum for such - play fair.
