[quote=@Vee] People without powers do exist. Though they live their lives primarily inside of Safe Zones without ever stepping foot outside. Those not in a clan tend to have jobs pertaining to the growth and prosperity of the safe zone. Primarily, powers are hereditary but that is not the only way to attain them. Through a Blood Tie Ritual you are able to access these Bloodline powers. But the ritual is very painful and it has a chance of killing the person, if they can't handle the strain it has on their body. Though you can only get this Blood Tie Ritual from a "True blood" (someone born into the bloodline). Uhmm.. Bloodline powers aren't exactly grown stronger by lineage. More so the number of people within the bloodline (Whether naturally or artificially). As it seems that the more members added into a clean their finite accessible power is fractionally increased. BUT, sheer clan numbers does not dictate the strength of a Clan Ability. It can simply be increased by adding more members. A lot of clans with inherently strong abilities will keep their numbers short. A way of keeping the bloodline pure and giving little chances of their lower members unbeknowningly sapping some of the finite power and leaving less for themselves while hunting. (I can go into much further detail on how powers work and how clans work if you'd like. Let me know if you have any specific questions :D ) Monsters at this point are very widely spread in appearance. I leave this entirely to your imagination. They can be as big or small, disgusting or sleek, etc as you'd like to create. Though the FIRST creatures to have attacked the earth were dark and grotesquely disfigured. Now they have infested wild life and altered their forms and attributes. Creatures could still retain more of their inherent physicality or be something entirely different. Let your imagination run wild. :) [/quote] Ah, okay, I think I understand the powers thing. Cool! And yay for wildly different monsters, my favorite >:D
