"It's a dark world out there, everyone else is blind to the problem, I'm just trying to fix it."
-Captian Hawkes

The world

Everything is much the same since the disease broke out in the 1970's. Many people still feign themselves into believing it isn't real, but we know. We, the hunters, know. It's 2016 now and the disease has spread across the world, it's common place to find someone dead on the streets in many of the bigger cities. People say it's murder, the murder rates have gone up. We know better though. It's the infected that do this to us, they are the ones that kill. I suppose it's better that their victims are dead though, it's hard to imagine what personal hell it's like to be one of them.
One day, maybe we'll be able to fix this problem.

As far as the disease goes, we call it vamparism. This is due to its... unfortunate side effects. I'm not saying the infected have totally lost it, but they need to be killed or else they'll kill us. It gives them a craving for blood, human to be specific. If they don't eat human blood or flesh, they'll starve. Or team says it takes about three days on average but some can last up to a week, there's really no telling why. The bloody beasts are cannibals to their own as well, to the disease they still count as humans and so vampires will sometimes eat other vampires.

They die just like everyone else does, sunlight only seems to deter them. A bullet through the head or a knife in the through is a good way to go, the real problem is that you can't have mercy. They might look human but they aren't. This is all we can do to save our earth.

The Plot

We are the hunters, the great ones of knowledge, under captain Hawkes and captain Galen before, may he rest in peace. We are among the few who know of the vamparism that plagues our society, and we are going to try and bring it to an end. We risk our lives to kill those who are disease, to purify the world, to make it a better, safer place. What do you say, are you in?

"They took everything from me. Now it's my turn to take it all back!"
About

Name: Saoirse Clarke (her first name is pronounced see-er-sha)

Age: 25

Gender: female

Sexuality: heterosexual

Physical description: Saoirse stands at 5'4" and weighs 118lbs. She has a small thin frame. She wears a red noodle strap camisole, a pair of skinny jeans, a black hoodie, and black leather boots. Her hair is a wavy deep auburn that goes down to her mid torso and has bright blue eyes.

Personality: Saoirse is a kind, warm and gentle woman, at least towards her fellow humans she is. However towards vampires or when she's on the job, she is a cold blooded killer. That doesn't mean that she doesn't know when it's okay to relax. She doesn't like to open up much about herself and tends to keep to herself, even towards humans.

Background: Saoirse had a good childhood. She had a close knit group of friends and two loving parents that adored her. She couldn't have been more happy then when she was a child.

Of course, not all fairytale have happy endings. One day after school, on her way home, Saoirse's fairytale ended and her nightmares began. Blood. It drenched the destroyed rooms her home and on the corpses of her dead parents. What had perhapse terrified her the most was the human looking monster that loomed over her parent's bodies, it's face ans clothes smeared with their blood and it's eyes burned red. It was about to make her it's next meal, when suddenly, she was saved by the hunters. It was those same hunters that took her in and trained her to become a successful hunter.

At the age of 13, she had killed her first vampire. Over the years her names had become well known to both the hunters... And the vampires.

Skills

Talents: +agility: she is a very fast runner and has a high level of stamina

+acrobatics: she is pretty advanced in gymnastics and can do much more than a few cartwheels and back flips

+is a good shot: she can handle and is a really good shot with a large variety of firearms.

+tracking: she has sharp instincts and senses, it doesn't take long for her to get on the trail of her next target

+self defense: she is a very skilled fighter, even without a weapon on hand

Weapon(s):



Extra

+She lives a small apartment by herself (gentlemen ;) )
+she draws in her spare time (ironically they're mainly sketches of vampires)

What? The disease began in the 1970's? That's like... a single lifetime ago. I would expect the scope of the infection to be very very limited, like, to one country at most. There also hasn't been enough time for vampires to be established as a species, with any intriguing history, or with even any infected individuals having amassed any kind of social order, self-identification, or financial security. They'd basically be animals in the woods, struggling to survive, and it would be nearly impossible to run into another vampire to befriend them. I find that very frustrating for creating a good background for my vampire.

Perhaps you could say that vampirism was only 'discovered' in the 70's, in this country. Maybe one vampire decided to break code and let himself and his children get discovered or something.

@Wraithblade6 this isn't a type of disease that you are born with. From what I understand, the disease seems to have begun with a sudden DNA mutation or one that developed in the body over time as the first vampire was born human and got older. Which then spread via bite. You have to have been bitten in order to get infected. You can't expect to have such a powerful disease to have spanned out for hundreds of years and expect the human race to still be in existence. It's simply not possible. You can have your character be bitten but they can't be born with the disease. That's simply not how it works in this thread, or at least by my understanding.

What I'm asking, is can the character be a few centuries old? I really do think your type of vampires could have been living in secret, transmitting by bite, since long ago. It could have all started from some genetic mutation, as you say, but did that event have to happen so incredibly recently?

I personally don't see the problem with it being recent. +Hundred year old vampires seem way over done to me. Besides, this thread is identified as modern meaning recent, not historical meaning that it happened over a long period of time.

It's still a modern thread either way, due to the current events being in modern times.

It wouldn't be modern it'd be historical because it would something that is going on in history then. It's recent outbreak because it is a modern themed thread. If it was a historical thread then the out break would have occurred centuries ago. Besides if this had been happening for years why would a vampire suddenly reveal themselves if they know that humans would hunt them down? That's a really dumb move and it would be a lame way for vampires to be discovered. If all of the sudden some person were to just say that they were a blood sucking monster by interrupting like a news crew, people would just label the guy as mental and make fun of them online. Nobody would take them seriously and the hunters wouldn't even be created over one delusional idiot or would be viewed as some weird religious cult. What would be the point of having hunters then?

She looks great you can go ahead and move her over.

@Wraithblade6
Like ace was saying its a disease, it spreads much in the way a virus does which is very rapidly. ;>
Sorry we don't have any century old vampires, in this rp vampires die just like regular people, except that they need to eat human(or vampire) flesh to satisfy the disease(other wise the disease would kill them).

Considering murder rates its believable people would just brush this sort of thing off as murder.

If you want to join that's fine, but I'd appreciate it if you were perhaps a bit more respectful of your fellow rpers, they're trying to help.

@Classpet

Quick question: are vampires affected by holy icons (crucifixes, etc.) and need some sort of special weapons (i.e., silver-plated blades) to be destroyed or can hunters use normal weapons (guns, blades and so forth) to deal with them?

@shaitarn
Nope, the only traditional vampire thing they retained was that they're harmed by sunlight, even that isn't as bad as traditional vampires.
