[Christalnightshade]

The blue is the history of the RPG... Dark blue is the current story... Red is for Haru Hashi the oracle.

This is like the second time I'm trying to start a vampire RPG, all I need is the character Name, Bio, Rank if you have one, Power if your a vampire and Weapons.

History of story:

This all began on earth...

Vampires lurked in darkness and when their full power was restored and their master claimed the world as his own, so did his children who could run amuck in the sun spreading dread. (yes, the sun) While all seems in their control there are rebellions forming underground to overthrow the evil master. Should the evil master know of these rebellions he would have done nothing to stop them for he had the upper hand. As the rebellion marched onward killing any fiend they set their eyes on. It changed the evil master’s mind; the humans were slaughtering his precious children.

Petronius was the leader of the rebellion and he led them to victory, the war was all but forgotten and the tenuous pact that they made years ago with the vampires ceased to exist. For a year they have waged war against vampires and the revolution has just begun…

***

“He must be stopped at all costs even if it means losing a few soldiers!” Crash shouted above the gathering crowd.

A woman screamed, “By now he has killed a million people and brought them to his side, we must flee to another country”

Crash yelled back at the idiotic option, “Where will you go, they took over the world!”

Petronius bellowed, “Silence!” He fixed his gloves on his hands and looked at Meria and Crash who was about to hit each other. “Settle down. The vampires do not know where we are currently located. We have nothing to fear from them,” He continued, “We have an army who has been trained for years in war. Plus, there is no way we can move to another country without being spotted, Meria.”

“It’s the year 2028, who of you will join us in this fight for survival?” He looked at each and every face. He bent down and looked at a little girl holding onto a teddy bear and smiled warmly.

Out the crowd Shouted a man, “Down with vampires!” and another started chanting with him. There was uproar of people shouting out rude comments. Then a boy the age of seventeen stuck his hand in the air and shouted “I will!” His mother shouted, “No, your to young!” and she clung onto him. The boy pulled away from his mother and stood next Petronius and said, “I will join. I’ve been training for this day for a long time”

***

Hoshi haru the oracle controls the light and dark, neither the vampires nor humans understand where her power source comes from, but her insight to the future was to every detail. Long ago the last living oracle (she) fell in love with a human. They loved each other very much. Or so she thought. The oracle got a premenision of the human with another woman. Heart broken the oracle joined the vampire ruler to destroy the human. She later discovered that the vampire had plans to destroy her as well. Completely betrayed by both human and vampire the oracle wanders telling her premenissions only to those who they involve.

Hope you have fun...

I'd be interested, but I only have time to participate infrequently at the present.

If that's okay, then it would help if we had more background to work with but here's my idea at present.

Name: Karie Long

Bio: Karie's parents survived the war by not taking sides and avoiding conflict. They were concientious people who helped those in need whenever they could. Karie's father died of a heart attackabout five years ago and her mother succumbed to depression and illness soon afterwards. Karie lives a solitary life on the fringes of no-man's-land. Experience has made her cautious around strangers and she avoids developing close relationships, but like her parents she feels compelled to help those in need, especially children. Karie is apolitical, and will steal what she needs form either side if she thinks she can get away with it. She tries to remain outside the awareness of both groups, but has numerious contacts among the other neutrals who are just trying to survive.

Rank: N/A (Human Survivor not aligned with the resistance)

Weapons: Main weapon is a Crossbow with a scope. It's quite and you can reuse/make ammunition. Has a sawed off shotgun and handgun for big problems. carries a hatchet and knife which can be used as tools or weapons as needed.

[Christalnightshade]

That'll do just fine blue. Just need to know where no-man's-land is? ^_^ Well... It is in At Oz (Australia) where it all happens. The vampires rules the U.K by now and is on it's way to bring other followers to it's side. The U.k isn't destroyed, but ruled by different types of Vampires you can think of.

The most vampire race you can get around the U.k is the Vamps. Around Oz at the surface you can scarcely find a Vampire around, but if you do travel alone - don't. So if you were ever to end up at U.K you'd have a bad time trying to hide your heartbeat. At Oz is where the biggest rebellion is currently hidden; Under the Tundora caravan park(less obvious for the rebellion to be hiding at a park.)

The OZ rebellion was the first to destory 120000 vampires in one year, so they are known well that they can't move from their hiding spot. Other rebellions is hidden very well so that the vampires don't know where it is.

The deal the humans made with the vampires a long time ago weakened the vampires, but over the years the vampires got the power to stand within the sun light, by the use of werewolves immune system, some vampires died trying to make it work, but in the end, they became stronger and less releable and so humans were forced back into caves and dark corners,just to make a living.

Humans were taken from each other, and used like a bloodbank... The children were hidden away from the vampires, becuase their youth was what fueled the vamps, so the vampires weren't at their strongest that is what made it possible to kill so many within one year.

(I'm not sure, but I can probably make a few character's that become a werewolf, that be cool for the story...since vampires exist in this story it'll go well with the plot, I guess they'd be introduced later into the story.)

[shy_blu_eyes]

By no-man's-land I was referring to anywhere that neither side has constant control. Since it's in Australia, it seems that there'd be plenty of wilderness that one or both sides claim, but isn't worth leaving soldiers at. Karie survives by living in the cracks and margins between the two, and staying mobile. I'll admit that traveling alone probably isn't smart, but can we just say that so far Karie's been lucky enough to get away with it?

[Christalnightshade]

That sounds about right. ^_^ Do you want to introduce your character? (I'm sure you'd enjoy starting)

[shy_blu_eyes]

Karie cursed at the battered motorcycle and then stood, wiping the grease from her hands onto a dirty rag. She had only planned to stop for a few hours rest, but now the decrepit machine refused to start. Karie knew that every second she stayed increased her chances of an unpleasent encounter, but she was reluctent to abandon the bike and continue on foot. Kneeling back down she made a few more desperate adjustments. The engine sparked, came to life momentarily, and then sputtered to a halt. Cursing, Karie went back to her tools, skillfully stripping the engine for parts based on their value and portability. Squeezing what she could save into her pack, she paused for a moment to contemplate her helmet.

"Just a waste of weight and space now," she thought as she discarded it. She had no idea how soon she would regret the decision...

Karie thought about destroying what was left of the bike, to keep it out of the wrong hands, but changed her mind. Spare parts abandoned by others had saved her life more than once, and it was only fair to return the favor.

Karie gazed longingly at the fuel tank, wishing she had some way to transport the precious gasoline within it. Out here, the fuel alone was probably worth the value of a replacement bike, but there was nothing to be done.

Shouldering her pack, Karie left the road, traveling north...

[Christalnightshade]

Karrie as you carry on walking down the road you hear someone shouting, "Help!" the voice echoeing. And a few gravely voices laughing, but you don't see anyone anywhere...

[shy_blu_eyes]

"S :censored: t."

Stashing her backpack in the bushes, Karie quickly loaded her crossbow and crept carefully and quietly in the direction of the voices...

(I'm not surehow much free reign you want the players to have here, is this more structured like "the Barony of Wyndshire" or more freeform like "the city of Ishante"?)

[Christalnightshade]

OOC: Oh, you have enough freedom, much like 'barony of wyndshire', but you can have more by creating your own people in the rpg and having fun with it, by using your creative juices, plus you got to handle the character's I throw on your journey to wherever your going... But don't god mod other people who jioned's characters, you can god mod a bit of the characters I create, but don't thorw in like the person treis to molest you unless I give permission. ^_^

As you (Karrie) creep forward you hear the cry for help again. As you came up to a trap door in the ground you see a hand holding onto the handle of it seeing someone well camoflaged with army clothing connected to the hand holding onto the trap door. Next him was an injured man clinging onto his leg. His leg had cratch marks from which looked like that came from a werewolf. It didn't look like it bit him.

Both men looked to be the age of thirty. "Stop! Hold your breath, Duffy, you lucky bastard!" the camoflaged man continued to talk as his friend writhed in pain. Duffy screamed, "There is someone here! Carlos!"

Carlos turned to look straight at you seeing you with the crossbow he stuck up his hands in defeat, "Don't... If your friends with the vampires - look we're unarmed..."

[shy_blu_eyes]

Cautiously, Karie raised the crossbow and slowly lowered herself to a knee. Still alert for danger she carefully leaned close to the man's ear and whispered the words "are they still out there?"

[Christalnightshade]

Carlos nodded and took out band aids, starting to turn it around the wound on Duffy's leg, "They left a few moments ago..." he whispered, sitting down on the trap door, "They're going to return... They left their pet werewolf under the trap door" Duffy cried in a whisper, "Thank heavens your on our side!"

[shy_blu_eyes]

"A Werewolf?"

Karie was starting to believe that things couldn't get much worse. She quickly examined the trapdoor to see if there was away to latch it from the outside. Suddenly she got an idea.

"Wait right here, I'll be back."

After a moments thought she handed Carlos her pistol, "just in case." heading back to the road, Karie struggled to roll the crippled bike over the rough ground and back to the others. The weight might be enough to pin down the trapdoor, and if not there was still a half a tank of gasoline...

[Christalnightshade]

Carlos could see from a distance Karie coming with a motorbike. He shouted, "That might just work! If not we have to use something silver, we can see if there is anything made out of a bit of silver on the bike." Duffy whispered, "I'm not sure, but it was a few hours ago when the moon as still up, maybe it's human now." Carlos said, "Well it isn't everyday you get a werewolf around here... I guess we can take a look see..." Carlos moved off the trap door while Karie was still pushing the motorbike...

[shy_blu_eyes]

"Don't!"

Karie was close enough to see what was about to happen, but too far away to stop it. Her heart pounded in her chest as the world shrunk to slow motion.

Dropping the bike, her hand flew to her empty holster. The begining of a curse formed on her lips just as the trapdoor swung open...

[Christalnightshade]

Silence was there, the trap door was open and Carlos couldn't see anything only black and brown wooden floorboards. Duffy said, "Oh Shit! Do you hear that!"

A girl's voice shouted, "You made a big mistake!" and suddenly a woman jumped out from under the trapdoor. She was holding two guns in her hands, her eyes had a tint of red in them and her clothes was a bit torn from something and she had teeth marks on her shoulder.

She turned the guns toward the hole in the ground. She looked over to the two men sitting next her, "You left me in there! You Jerks!" Duffy said, "Budgey! You were dead when we found you" Budgey started shooting at the creature that was about to climb out of the hole, "I-don't-think-you-cared"

The bullets hit the human's shoulder as he reached for the foot of Budgey. He Bent his legs and jumped out of the hole. Staring at bugey he ran over to her, kicking her legs and pinning Budgey to the ground. he said, "I'll kill you and your friends"

He looked at the two men that was scared out of their wits and said, "I can change willingly, so don't try anything stupid!" He looked at the struggling woman under him, looking at the werewolf bite mark, the wound of the vampires made and said, "You were dead earlier, why are you alive?"

Then he looked at Karie that wasn't to far away from them, he lifted his hand, pointing toward Karie, "Come here!"...

And then I kick down the door and draw my sword and orient on the guy holding budgey down

[Christalnightshade]

(OOC: not sure if you want to do it, or if it was a joke...)Black hawk, after pointing that sword toward the werewolf, he laughed and got up. "You sure that sword can kill me?"

[Black Hawk]

Confused I said "Well maybe not but I think this will" and I reach down and draw my magnum.


(are werwolves killed by silver bullets in this RPG if not I just lower my sword a bit.)

[Christalnightshade]

(OOC: werewolfs are still killed by silver or a certain type of black and yellow daimand, unless that sword and gun is silver or made out of aurakalkum *hoping I spelled correctly* heck you can kill em with it.)

The werewolf looks at you, "Take your best shot, try and shoot me down, your hands is occupied with two things, a sword and a gun." As he stares at you you see his shirt has the name Gara on it. "Come shoot me"

You see a girl standing over at a fallen bike and suddenly you see people grabbing hold of her arms and their laughing.

Gara spoke, “Looks like their here!”

***Throw a dice! look at the number and throw again, if it is lower than normal number, you get to do whatever killing technique you want with this new enemy, remember he can stop the fight and you have a choice in not hearing him out or just killing him. Or you can leave the dice throwing. ^_^
