The cold bite of the Alaskan night air seemed to cut right through him despite him having a thick coat on. Jack pulled his coat tighter around himself and breathed into his hands. Torch had sent him all the way out here along with a hundred or so others to set up a FOB in the Alaskan wilds. No one was briefed yet on their objective but he could guess it had something to do with werewolves. Torch spared no expenses on this one, they had been working for days setting up this base, setting up fences and towers. This place was looking more and more like a fortress with each passing day. He waved at one of his buds standing guard near the armory “You got a smoke man?” Jacked asked. His buddy pulled a pack from his pocket and threw him a cig. He lit it up and took a long drag letting smoke fill his lungs before exhaling. “So you know why they stationed us all the way out here in the ass end of nowhere?” His buddy asked him as he shifted his rifle from one shoulder to the other. “One can only imagine, but I guess it has something to do with a pack of werewolves.” Jack said in his most sarcastic tone. “We’re going to find em and kill em all!” Rob joked. Jacked allowed himself to smirk for a moment then turned to watch as a heli flew over head. “Man why cant werewolves live in Hawaii, or some place warm?” Jack stated before flicking his half finished cig. When he got no answer he turned to face his friend again only to find him missing. “Rob, quit the shit man.” Jack said hoping this was just another prank. Something caught his attention, a gurgling sound coming from behind the armory. He grabbed his rifle instinctively and moved to the edge of the armory where his friend once stood. Peeking around the corner he saw it. Large teeth clamped shut around his friends throat and a hulking mass of black fur hovered above him. Fear gripped him and he froze in his place, this was the first time he saw a werewolf this close. The beast turned to look at him staring at him with cold dead eyes, then just as quickly steeled off into the night dragging his friend with him.
Plot:
Welcome to Alaska a haven for some and a war zone for others. For werewolves this wild frontier is one of the last places on earth where you are not hunted night and day simply for being different. Alaska is home for not one but many tribes of werewolves, some peaceful and some not. Recently things have started changing in your home. More and more people have been seen on the outskirts of the forest. These people are not just local hunters but dangerous invaders. News has reached your pack of a massacre not far from your territory. Werewolves are being systematically hunted and killed, some are even being taken alive for unknown reason. This is a dangerous time for werewolves and these events are only growing more severe. One night you awake to sounds of conflict, gunfire and heavy machinery are ringing in your ears as too are the cries of victims. Mankind has found your home and are slaughtering your pack. You watch in horror as family and friends are gunned down in the night. Fires spread through the forest and bodies litter nearly every inch of ground. Some fight and some flee but what you decide will change your life and not for the better. Somehow you survive the massacre, and find yourself wondering the woods. You happen across other survivors of not just your pack but other packs, all of whom share a similar story. You gather around these few survivors and together they endure. A new pack is made and for now mankind has yet to seek you out. You fear however that mankind will once again find you and continue their senseless slaughter of your race.
Playable races:
Humans: Not very strong on their own but they are quite dangerous in numbers. Members of Torchlight are highly trained individuals and have only the best equipment at their disposal. Armed with the latest in military firearms and gear they fight as a unit and are very dedicated to their work. Torchlight has three branches of power, Research and Development, Light Infantry Scouts, and the Mobilized Infantry. I will go into more detail about each branch in the ooc.
Werewolves/Lycans: Werewolves or Lycans whichever you prefer will be slightly different then what you may be used to. I understand some people like for there werewolves to be more like actual wolves, and others prefer the more bipedal horror movie type. As a compromise I will merge the two so everyone will be happy. Lycans have three forms to help them survive I will state them below.
Human Form: Let me first state that a human can be turned into a Lycan by ingesting their blood, this process is dangerous and there is no guarantee the person will survive. Secondly Lycans can have offspring if both parents are the same species. These offspring do not develop powers until their early teenage years. Now while a Lycan is in human form they will have increased strength and agility along with heightened senses. A Lycan in human form can easily overpower a human twice his size and run twice as fast and far as an Olympic gold medalist.
Wolf Form: While in this form the Lycan takes on the shape of a normal wolf. There size and shape is no different then Alaskan timber wolfs and thus allows them to hide effectively. Although in this form their strength only increases slightly. The senses such as smell and taste however are greatly increased. Lycans who bond with one another can talk telepathically with one another in any form, however in this form the distance a message can be sent to one another is increase further then the other two.
Beast Form/True Form: The Lycan will never be stronger or as deadly as he is in this form. The Lycan takes on the appearance of a bipedal wolf creature with savage claws and fangs. A Lycan will grow stronger the fuller the moon is but does not require a full moon to take on this form, in fact most prefer to stay in this form permanently.
Vampires: Vampires will be allowed in this RP but don't expect to make a lot of friends. Vampires are the most powerful race in this RP but are also the most hated. They are fewer in number then the Lycans and are enemies of both sides.
So who is interested?
