[hider=Synopsis + Info]
Albert King is well-known throughout the city, both for his position as the owner of the classiest and most popular nightclub in town ─ The Silver Suit ─ as well as for his legacy of being the son to none other than the once-highly-sought-after leader behind the most notorious crime ring to ever sweep the streets of Aster Valley. It was with the widely celebrated arrest of his father, Jamal King ─ "King" of the Spades, rather ─ that Albie first made his appearance to the wider public, as he quickly acquired ownership of the establishment once serving as a front to the Spades, despite his young age at the time, and announced that he would be making [i]great changes[/i] in the years to come.
Now, nearly seven years later to the date, Albie continues his father's business, in more ways than one. As the new "King" to the thought to be long-since-disbanded Spades, Albie has made many changes among "both companies" bringing not just the Silver Suit into a new era, but the Spades as well. Things have never run more smoothly, nor more successfully, for either side of his family's generations-long "business" and the young proprietor rivals in his own success. Were it not for the constant harassment of the Aster Valley Police trying to pin him on the same crimes as his father, or the recent bout of murders connected to his Silver Suit performance workers ─ Three girls in less than as many weeks ─ Albie would say that his life was more than perfect. 
On the night of the seventh anniversary of his take over, Albert King hosts a gala within the Silver Suit to celebrate his reign as "King", little to the public's knowledge, of course. However, it is during this event that a sudden ─ and almost very successful ─ attempt is made on Albie's life, and after ordering his personal bodyguard, his [i]Joker[/i], to bring the attacker back alive, Albie's life only becomes more complicated as he decides to give the assassin a chance to right his wrong by becoming the King's second Joker.
Azrael is less than compliant, nor is he at all willing to work with either the King or his existing Joker, and would rather the "company" just do away with him if they can't simply let him go running off into hiding like he had originally planned to do after his job with Albie. Stubbornly, however, and to Azrael's dismay, Ablie refuses to let go of such a strong asset and instead continues to force Azrael through his [i]indoctrination[/i], as the assassin would put it.
Frustrated, terrified, and uncertain of his future, Albie resents himself for forcing the man into such a position, but as the numbers rise and the death toll among his Silver Suit performers grows ever larger and ever more frequent, the King knows he is more in need of a second Joker than he's ever been before. Willing or not, Azrael was there to stay, and Albie would just have to force his hand with a deck that was surely stacked against him...

[u][b]PLOT STUFF[/b][/u]
[list][*]The roleplay will begin sometime before the gala, setting up the relationship between Ablie and his initial Joker, as well as his troubles with the murders and the harassment from the police, before eventually getting to the gala and the attempted murder
[*] Following the attempted murder and the gala, the story will focus mainly on Azrael and the established Joker, as Azrael resists his new position and the Joker is forced to put him through training to ensure he can even serve as a proper Joker for their King
[*] A lot of this time will be used for building the relationship between the Joker and Azrael, but will also have moments of relationship building with Albie as well
[*] The story will slowly lead into the rising murders of the Silver Suit performance girls, and Albie will have both of his Jokers on the task of finding out what the cops are obviously incapable of doing
[*] As time goes on, more issues can arise, such as conflicts involving new crime rings copying the Spades' motif under a similar name (Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs); this city isn't big enough for four individual organizations, and the Spades were the originals, after all
[*] Eventually I want Albie to find a lovey or two, possibly even a few, it hurt his heart to lose the girls from the Silver Suit, and the more girls he can protect, the happier he'll be
[*] At some point Albie will have to face his father again, a man he hasn't spoken to for seven years
[*] I even have plans for Albie losing his title at some point for a while, with someone else coming into power and forcing him down, and it takes the support of at least one of his love/ins to pep-talk him into being King again
[*] Yes, I see the potential of this being a small-group rp, but I have a separate... [i]AU[/i] version that's more specifically for group rp, see Better Suited if it's up yet; this story is specifically intended to be 1x1 due to the romance

[*][i][b]THE JOKER[/b][/i]
The king's protector and overall best man, does the greater deal of the dirty work, specializes in literally everything, and dedicated to protecting the king and his court at all costs, though the king's life always takes the greatest importance.

The general members of the group, ranked from 2-10, the higher one's number, the greater respect they earn and the greater power they hold.

[hider=Synoopsis + Infos]
When a young woman is left stranded in the middle of a lake with the loss of her paddles, she soon finds herself rescued from her predicament by a strange young lad who seems to have no issue in towing her boat back with nothing other than his own strength of swimming. He introduces himself as Kion Lake, and it isn't long before the two meet again as the woman finds herself sitting in the middle of the lake once more, though at least still with her paddles. The two hit it off almost immediately, as strange as Kion is about some of the things they talk about, and it suddenly becomes a routine for them. Her in her boat, and Kion in the water despite the cold season, it isn't long before the woman reveals to Kion her fear of water, or rather, drowning. Wanting to help her in what she calls "desensitization therapy", Kion offers to give the woman swimming lessons, and though hesitant, initially, she ultimately agrees to his offer, and they set up to meet once more.
Unfortunately, the morning of their planned lessons, the news is filled with the tragic incident of a chemical spill contaminating theirs and many other lakes in the nearby area through the river system. Worried for her friend, whom she had yet to see out of the water, the woman hurries to the lake in search of Kion, worried he may be foolish enough to swim in the contaminated waters. To her surprise though, and the surprise of many around the lake as well, the lake could never have looked so clean, looking fresher than even days before. Were it not for the masses of dead fish washed up on the surrounding shore, one may have thought that the lake was never hit with the chemicals to begin with. It isn't until she finds another, much larger body among those of the fish that the woman finds her fears confirmed, as Kion lies barely conscious on the rocky shore. Her cries for help are cut off, however, as Kion weakly begs her not to involve official doctors, pleading that she and she alone be the one to help him, if he was to receive help at all.
Refusing to leave her new friend to surely die, the woman takes Kion back to her cabin, and frantically works to find what the actual problem with him may be. As his condition becomes worse, Kion proves to be more strange than the woman could ever have thought, as he reveals to her his secret:
He is a guardian spirit of water...and he has made a grave mistake...

[/hider]

[hider=Notes]
[b][u]PLOT STUFF[/u][/b]
[list][*] After quite literally absorbing all of the toxins from the spill into his form, Kion becomes gravely ill, something not exactly common among spirits, and his body and entirety begin to rapidly change
[*] Upon a visit from the great spirit of all spirits, they learn that Kion's actions have caused the weakening of his spiritual nature, essentially rendering him human, and it's only further stressed that if they don't find a way to reverse it, his condition will only get worse, and he, will eventually die
[*] Kion must learn to come to terms with his new state of being, at least for the time being as he and his human savior race against the clock to find a cure for his "condition"
[*] Along the way, the woman finds herself pulled deeper and deeper into the spirits' world, learning that there is much more to the world she thought she knew
[*] They make some other friends along the way, both spirit and human, though come across some enemies as well in the form of those who would want to hurt a weakened spirit like Kion
[*] Ryder is friend of the woman's who has a romantic interest in her and becomes greatly jealous of the relationship between her and Kion, though where this jealousy will lead him is up for debate
[*] The woman's uncle has known about the existence of spirits for some time, though what his feelings toward them of his intentions would be with them is uncertain, especially regarding Kion[/list]

[b][u]STUFF ABOUT SPIRITS[/u][/b]
[list][*] There is a spirit for just about every element of nature, and all of them are connected to one degree or another (such as the spirits of storms and ice knowing [i]immediately[/i] that something is wrong with Kion)
[*] Spirits are not born but rather created by the spirit of life. They [i]can[/i] die, and when they do, they are simply replaced with a newly appointed soul
[*] The souls for spirits come from humans who have passed on and are entering a new life
[*] It is common for a spirit to remember their past life, but not uncommon for them to have no memory at all
[*] The human souls used to make spirits typically come from humans who have done something remarkable in their lives, or who faced some kind of challenge involving the element they represent
[*] Spirits do not need to eat, drink, sleep, or any of that, and need only to be in their element to receive their strength. This can mean two things:
[list][*] They simply live in a place surrounded by their element, such as Kion at the lake
[*] They revert to an elemental state and exist [i]as[/i] their element on a literal level; they can keep to this form for centuries while still performing their duties, and do not need to take on a physical, humanoid form[/list]
[*] Spirits [i]can[/i] get sick naturally, though it's usually just a reaction to their element suffering in one way or another, and is easily remedied by their attention to fix the overlying issue (such as encouraging humans to clean up polluted areas
[*] Spirits exist for all elements, be they seen as good or bad, but while not all spirits are exactly friendly, they are inherently good, regardless of their element (spirits of sickness, death, pollution, etc. are no less morally standing than any other spirit)
[*] Spirits are ageless and remain the physical age of when the human their soul comes from initially died, placing some spirits as appearing as mere children, despite their ancient existence

[i]Modern - Supernatural - Crime - Mystery[/i]
[hider=Synopsis + Infos]
Daizen Moore is a detective working for the Silver Lake Police Department, transferred over to the department to assist in a rise of brutal and vicious murders. At least...that's the story that most are told. In actuality, Daizen is a demon, long since contracted to the city from the very first settlement. Throughout the centuries, he has been called on by the city officials, summoned time and time again to help when things get a little too...supernatural for the city's liking, before being sent away for the next century to come. But with the ever-growing state of humanity, Daizen has only found himself called to the more and more frequently, with problems becoming increasingly worse all the while. Now, being called back for the fifth time in the same generation of mankind, Daizen is becoming drained from the increased work, and as though the string of murders connected to what can only be some kind of leak in the veil weren't enough, Daizen finds himself suddenly being targeted by a huntress in town investigating the same mystery as he and his human partner. This huntress is certain that Daizen has some connection to the crimes taking place, and is Hellbent on proving it, and taking the detective down in the process, but when circumstances lead to the two having to work together, it doesn't take long for her to realize that the powerful demon she seeks to destroy is her best bet at putting an end to the case once and for all.

[b][u]PLOT STUFF[/u][/b]
[list][*] Daizen and the huntress should clash for a good bit before actually joining forces
[*] Daizen will be the first to make a move toward a truce with the huntress, but it'll be shakey at first
[*] The police chief and current mayor of Silver Lake absolutely hate Daizen and treat him like an animal
[*] Other than the chief and the mayor, and anyone entrusted by them, no one knows of Daizen's true existence and knows him only as an out-of-state detective called in to help with the current case
[*] When they do finally start working together, Daizen becomes very protective of the huntress, to the point that it could be mistaken that he's developed a romantic attraction to her, which he hasn't
[*] Together, Daizen and the huntress work out that somebody is summoning the demons which are responsible for the string of violent deaths raging the city, and they work together to try and track down where the summonings are taking place
[*] During their search, they find another demon, Toris, one of Daizen's good friends, who the huntress suspects is their culprit. When she insists on the matter to Daizen, he refuses it outright and accuses her of returning to her judgemental views of his kind, which upsets their budding relationship
[*] When their relationship becomes rocky, Daizen goes off on his own in search of the summoner
[*] From there, Daizen could find the summoner and end up in trouble through a number of ways:
[list][*] The summoner captures him and aims to kill him
[*] The summoner toys with Daizen and escapes
[*] The summoner sets it up to look as though Daizen has been the one summoning all along, thus ruining his reputation[/list][/list]

[b][u]WORLDBUILDING[/u][/b]
[list][*] Demons are classed in different levels ranging from low-level underlings that are no more than little soot-ball imps of creatures, to monstrous beasts which act on nothing but animal instinct. Higher demons are less animalistic, with the most powerful being able to blend in with humans quite flawlessly.
[*] Demon abilities range depending on level and type, but the higher the level a demon is, the more powerful their abilities would be, with the most powerful of them having nigh-god-like powers.
[*] Demons are weak to some materials that hunters use against them, including metals like silver and iron, various types of plants, and of course, holy water. Lower-level demons are more sensitive to these materials than the higher ones, but even the highest level of demons can be affected to some degree.
[*] Contracted demons require a higher energy intake than other demons, as a lot of their magic is sapped through the contract binding them. This can show in a few different ways, from needing to feed on flesh or blood, to simply favoring a certain food. As luck would have it, Daizen simply requires a higher saturation of junk food (which he has extremely ambivalent feelings about)

[b]Sin's Host[/b]
[i]Time-jumpy, mostly Modern - Supernatural - Adventure[/i]
[hider=Synopis + Infos]
Once every other century, a Vessel is born; a child who hosts the soul of the First Fallen, Ölüm, also known as the Bringer of Darkness. Through this child, it is said that Ölüm may rise again, and finally finish what was started in snuffing out mankind. For millennia, this has been avoided through the sacrifice of each Vessel before the First Fallen could wake. With every appearance of a Vessel, a Guardian has been chosen to find them, and inevitably, eliminate them. For millennia, this has been the workings of Pyraedai, forever protecting mankind and the world from the danger that exists.

Zahkariel was the Chosen Guardian, the next in line for destroying the Vessel, and had trained his whole life to complete the task decided for him, but nothing could have truly prepared him for the full weight of the job. When Zahkariel was unable to bring himself to kill a child, he instead decided to protect the Vessel, and took them somewhere safe in hopes of finding another way of preventing the Bringer of Darkness from awaking. Marked a traitor to Pyraedai and the world, Zahkariel was cursed with the black wings of a Fallen Guardian, but still fought to prove his loyalty to mankind. Unfortunately, as hard as he tried to keep Ölüm from rising, the Vessel was just not strong enough to keep the First Fallen sealed, and both Zahkariel and the Vessel were destroyed by Pyraedai’s Guardians, sent to finish the task.

Typhaelion was stripped of his title as a Guardian when a fatal mistake cost his brother his life. Willing to do anything to be a Guardian once more, Typhaelion volunteers to be the Chosen Guardian and take out the Vessel to prove his right. However, the job proves to be harder than he thought it would be when he falls in love with the Vessel’s older sister. The last thing he wants to do is hurt her, but that becomes difficult to avoid the more Typhaelion tries to complete his mission. Things only get harder for Typhaelion when he’s told to also eliminate a new Fallen who, despite suffering from severe amnesia, proves to be an extremely powerful target, and when the assumed enemy takes up the role of helping the Vessel’s sister in protecting her brother, it seems the whole universe is trying to keep Typhaelion from regaining his title.

(tbn) has been taking care of her younger brother, Lucien since he was just a baby, having to take on major responsibilities at a young age when their mother fell deathly ill, their father long since having abandoned them. Lucien is all (tbn) has left, and the same for her being all Lucien has. When a Guardian of Pyraedai arrives, claiming that Lucien is Ölüm’s Vessel and must be destroyed, Zeyna Alinari does all she can to protect the only family she has remaining. It becomes a constant battle as the Guardian shows up everywhere they go, and only worsens when the Guardian claims to only be wanting to protect her. A close call introduces the siblings to an amnesiac man preferring to go by the title, Nameless, who saves Lucien from the Guardian, however, when Nameless is revealed to be a Fallen, (tbn) wants absolutely nothing to do with him. At first. After finding Nameless trying to break into their shed in search of a place to sleep for the night, (tbn) decides to take him in and give him a chance...with a little persuasion from her brother.

A young man holds no memory of who he is after waking in a city park, covered in cuts and burns. The only clues to his identity he has are nightmarish flashes and a small silver locket that won’t open. Adopting the title of Nameless, the man sets out in search of who he is and what happened to him. Along the way, however, he runs in with a man who claims Nameless is a Fallen and must be killed. Refusing to believe the man, Nameless fights him off and continues on his quest. However, it isn’t long before Nameless finds the man again, attacking an innocent child. He steps in to protect the child, and in the battle, finds that there may be more truth to what the man said than he originally thought. Still refusing to believe in what he is, however, Nameless continues to search for his answers, though coincidentally finds himself running in with the kid again, and the kid’s sister, when he attempts to find shelter in a shed in their backyard. When the siblings offer to shelter him, Nameless promises to protect the boy from the madman in exchange for their hospitality, even if it means having to put a pause on his search.

Stories intertwine, lives connect in the most unusual of ways, and secrets lay all around, all while the threat of the Bringer of Darkness, Ölüm, rising once again lays at the center of it all.

[b][u]PLOT STUFF[/u][/b]
[list][*] A lot going on in this story, and it's gonna have a lot of time jumping, both in the form of flashbacks and generally just jumping ahead in time to when Lucien is older
[*] Story will focus on the connections between the characters and how their individual tales have come to intertwine
[*] You as the sister are welcome to choose between Ty and Zahk as your love interest, as both are intended to be such, though originally, Ty's feelings toward the sister were never meant to be reciprocated, and Zahk was never meant to reciprocate any feelings had towards him. In the end, there could easily be a new character introduced who becomes an official love interest for the sister, or she can simply stay single if she wishes
[*] Lucien is not intended to die, even as he grows older and Ölüm awakes, rather, he is to gain strength and control over the dark entity, managing to harness the being's power as his own
[*] Ty eventually supports the idea of letting Lucien live, but this does NOT render him fallen
[*] Zahk eventually starts to recover his memories and it is discovered that he was forced into Ölüm's servitude, making him loyal not only to the entity, but to Lucien as well
[*] Sister could eventually learn magic if you want
[*] Demons will be allies with the group as they follow Ölüm
[*] Maybe there's an ambitious demon or group of demons who think killing Lucien and destroying Ölüm in his weak state will give them control over his kingdom

[*] About Guardians
[list][*] Essentially angels
[*] Human-looking, for the most part aside from wings
[*] Wings are typically white, though High Guardians have an iridescence to them which causes them to let off refracted light in every color of the rainbow like a sparkling gem
[*] They are born and grow over time, aging slowly at about one year to every five, though live for several centuries, aging ceasing some time after their first century, and do not die of old age; while most appear fairly young, some choose to appear older, with mid-40's typically being about the oldest they'll go
[*] While in Pyraedai, they do not require food, water, sleep or other human needs, but when on the mortal plane they may find they need these things every so often, if not daily, depending on their power; this need only increases should they ever find themselves Iphornei

[*] Like Guardians, they are born and age slowly before becoming ageless around their first century
[*] Depending on the species, they do not have the same needs as humans, similarly to Guardians, complete with the need increasing while on the mortal plane or in Pyraedai; this excludes vampiric, flesh-eating, and soul-feasting species who need to regularly "feed" regardless of the plane they currently reside
[*] So too, are stronger users of magic, typically restricted to that which has to do with all things dark and damned
[*] Tolerance against pain and death varies among species, but all can be hurt or killed one way or another[/list]
[*] About Mages
[list][*] Humans who have studied magicks
[*] They can harness both light and dark, as well as combine them
[*] Age no differently than any other human
[*] Appear no different than any other human
[*] The only thing that gives them away is their "burning aura", which can typically only be seen by Guardians, Sentinels, and fellow Mages
[*] Same tolerance to pain and death as any other human, but they can use magic to heal and protect themself[/list][/list]

[*] They do eventually find the crime lord, but how that encounter goes is dependent on where the wife and bounty hunter are in their relationship

[b]All's Fair in Wrath and War[/b]
[i]Modern - Supernatural - Romance[/i]
[hider=Synopis + Infos]
Synopsis
Some may say that war and rage come hand and hand, but for rising musicians, Andrew Bates and Isaac Allard, it really just depends on how you look at it. Andrew is a descendant of one of the Four Horsemen, War, and he's living out his days as a reporter for the local newspaper by day, and the drummer for the small-town band, Party til' the Apocalypse, by night. Meanwhile, Isaac is the descendant of one of the Seven Deadly Sins, Wrath, and he's living out his days on the steady income of his smart investments while playing keyboard for his own little band, Hellbrake.
Just being apart, the two can be a real handful, as their individual anger often gets the best of them, and often, more, gets them into trouble in their social surroundings. Put them together, however, and you may as well be starting a true war. When energies crash to the extreme and both men find themselves arrested for public disturbance and various accounts of assault, their irritation only grows as they are sentenced to community service, as well as forced to attend court-mandated anger management. Getting suspended from their respective bands they play in with the others of their kind is only icing on the cake, and tensions only grow stronger yet when they wind up stuck in the same class for their anger management. The only thing keeping these two violent men from destroying everything in their path is a volunteer they both meet at the community center where their classes are being held. When the beautiful young woman seems to have a knack for keeping the two calm, Isaac and Andrew both find themselves drawn ever closer to her. But with both men pining after the same woman, how long can it really last, and will Isaac and Andrew ever truly be able to control their anger?

[b][u]PLOT STUFF[/u][/b]
[list][*] So yes, it's a love triangle romance, but I kinda wanna make it so it ends up becoming a polyam thing where both men can settle their differences over their mutual love for this woman
[*] Very slice of life-y as Andrew and Isaac hide what they are while fighting over the same woman who will have absolutely none of their arguing
[*] Eventually it would come out that the men are basically demons, but idk where to go from there, would love to hear your thoughts!!
[*] Most importantly, if you wanna change the woman to a guy, the story can still work in technicolor gay[/list]

[b][u]WORLDBUILDING[/u][/b]
[list][*] Our world but with demons and angels
[*] Horsemen and Sins are considered a type of demon
[*] There are also angels, specifically the four angels of the apocalypse: rebirth, liberance, abundance, and peace
[*] Of course there's also the virtues: chastity, kindness, charity, patience, diligence, temperance, and humility
[*] Both virtues and angels clash heavily with the sins and horsemen
[*] There's also two more bands in the city, one of the angels, and the other of virtues, named Countdown Saviors and Divine Connection, respectively; they can come into the story or not, it's really just what we feel
[*] Horsemen, Sins, Angels, and Virtues all can be "corrupted" and turned into the opposite of their aspect; this is more common with Angels and Virtues though as many demons make a game out of causing a Virtue/Angel to corrupt
[*] All are weak to standard demon weaknesses: religious artifacts, pure metals and minerals, etc
[*] Despite being considered demons, Sins and Horsemen are very much human and have normal human needs; the only thing making them inhumane is their aura which allows them to influence the thoughts, actions, beliefs, and lifestyles of the human populace
[*] It's these auras that cause Isaac and Andrew to clash so hard as their energies constantly fuel each other, sending the men into a blind rage
[*] Sins and Virtues don't typically get along in general, though, as both claim to be better and more important than the other, as the Sins hold on to the fact that they were created first, and the Horsemen make claim to the fact that they are destined to end it all
[*] The situation is further less helped by the fact that Hellbrake and PTA are [i]rival[/i] bands and have been fighting each other over gig spots for years[/list]

When (tbn) receives a package from a distant, deceased relative, everything they ever knew about the world is suddenly flipped upside down. The reason being? Well, it's not every day you find a dismembered head in a box, let alone one that's [i]apparently[/i] still [i]speaking[/i]. As it is revealed that this head is that of a dullahan, a member of the faerie race, (tbn) also learns of the truth about their distant relatives, primarily that these relatives used to hunt creatures like the man they are now saddled with, and even more importantly, that their great-uncle from whom they received the package was apparently a sick, twisted bastard. Introducing himself as Arlen, the dullahan informs (tbn) that his body ran off at some point during his imprisonment with their great-uncle, and requests only that they assist him in getting in touch with others of his kind, so he may track down the rest of his being and get back to the life he once lived. Seeking to right the crimes of their family, however, (tbn) insists that they help him, personally, and quickly offers to be his legs and whatever else it is he'll need to find his rampant other half, after all, how hard could it be to find a body with no head?

[list][*] We can build demon rules together, but for the most part, they're strong, have a single magic they can use (like telekinesis or some elemental control or summoning creatures), and they're born and age just like humans, though slow down when they reach maturity
[*] They don't come from "hell" as people assume and are just a different breed of people that evolved separately; they require a diet high in meat and occasional intakes of raw flesh or blood
[*] Demons aren't a piece of common knowledge though, and aren't thought to exist
[*] Classic demon deterrents like holy water, magic circles, and other gimmicks mean nothing and the only things that truly work against them are things like silver, iron, salt, and certain herbs and spices, which they're more so just allergic to[/list]

[b]The Blood Lord[/b]
[i]Modern-ish - Supernatural - Dramatic Comedy - Slice of Life[/i]
[hider=Synopis + Infos]
Born without a proper immune system, Garrett Allard has spent his whole life under the care of constant medical staff, locked away in a specialized "bubble" to protect him from potential disease and infection. For as long as he can remember, people have poked and prodded him, taking blood sample after blood sample, and getting endless readings on every part of his everyday functioning, right down to how many times he'd go to the bathroom. So when a new team of researchers is brought on and begins asking for much larger blood samples than what Garrett is used to, he really doesn't question that much about it.
As the tests carry on, however, Garrett starts to note some...unusual behaviors surrounding these new researchers. For one thing, they only ever show up in the late evening, sometimes not even visiting until well into the night. For another, they never cross the threshold into his room without his explicit permission. Most strange of all, however, they always...[i]watch him[/i], but in a way that feels so different from the concerned gazes of the medical staff. If Garrett had to describe it, he'd say it felt almost...[i]predatory[/i]...
As an avid fan of classic horror and all things supernatural, Garrett is sure that he's just letting things get to his head, but there's a part of him that truly wonders...no...[i]hopes[/i] that his wild suspicions of this mysterious crew are true. After all, how cool would it be to say that you were being "milked" by [i]vampires[/i]?

[list][*] A virus has spread among humans, having no effect on them physically, but rendering their blood toxic to vampires
[*] Very few humans in the world can still be fed on safely, and the number steadily shrinks as the virus continues to silently spread
[*] Researchers among the vampires come across the "bubble boy" Garrett with no immune system who has been locked away from the unknown virus, making him the perfect, healthy source of blood they need
[*] Using samples of Garrett's blood, they hope not just to feed themselves, but to find a cure for whatever is making humans inedible, thinking that his weakened blood may be the answer
[*] Garrett eventually figures out what's going on, at least the fact that the new researchers are vampires, and he begins constantly asking them to turn him, thinking that immortality could be his escape from his bubbled life
[*] The researcher vampires, of course, lie to Garrett and tell him that there's no telling if turning him would only kill him given his lack of immune system; really though they just don't want to lose the one pure source of blood they have
[*] Other vampires not associated with the researchers could find out about Garrett too and want him as nothing more than a blood cow, and maybe they trick him into trusting them by promising to turn him
[*] Eventually the researchers do promise him the same, but only after they've had a chance to study further to see if he truly is the key to stopping the virus[/list]

[b][u]WORLDBUILDING[/u][/b]
[list][*] We can come up with the rules for vampires together, but I like to think they have weaknesses to silver, iron, salt, various plants like sage and wolfsbane, and "corpse blood" which is the blood from a three-day-old corpse and can be used as a sedative on them, rendering them immobile and hardly conscious; I feeling like they don't need to eat, but can, and often do because it helps in times where blood is unavailable. They can feed on animals in place of humans when needed, but it doesn't give them the nutrients they need and is more like eating nothing but candy and snacks. Surely, they'd be strong, fast, and resilient, and maybe they'd have additional powers too like telekinesis and telepathy and shit
[*] The virus affecting human blood does not affect humans at all, merely only changing their blood in regards to vampire consumption. When consumed, tainted blood causes extreme sickness in a vampire, weakening them and killing them from the inside out. In small doses, the toxin can be expelled from the system and has often been described as feeling like an acid burn; in larger consumptions, however, it is highly deadly and results in a gruesome end for any vampire as it is said that their bodies are melted from the inside out
[*] Garrett's blood is not just pure from the virus, but different from other humans overall with its lack of white blood cells, and it is often described as rich and sweet. It is also noted to have an almost addictive quality to it, which is what has so many vampires going crazy over him[/list]

Every week he's left under the watchful eye of Officer (tbn). And every week, he treats the situation like the most memorable date there ever was.

With both parties seeking to make things right for their mutual connection, they soon find themselves tripping over each other in their attempts to solve the case behind the scenes.

[*] This opening episode will introduce our main characters, Jude and your own, and set up their weird relationship of going from hateful strangers to best friends and work partners
[*] Episodes after this will further their relationship and introduce new faces
[*] All the while these guys are technically acting illegally since they aren't licensed detectives, but they get away with it because they're lucky (well, Jude is)
[*] I haven't determined who the killer is for this first episode, I figure we can write that together, but I have plans for future episodes that are a little more written out, including one episode where Teaghan is nearly killed, and another with a wannabe "vampire"[/list]

[list][*] Superbred are basically humans, just slightly more evolved
[list][*] They are most notable by their "unnatural" appearances, having strange hair/eye colors
[*] The thing that makes them "superbred" though is their ability
[*] Every superbred has ONE power, and those powers are usually simple things like telepathy, low-level telekinesis, accelerated healing, or Jude's "luck" power
[*] Powers don't include anything "drastic" like shapeshifting, flying, or anything "godly"
[*] EVERY POWER has a drawback of some kind, be it headaches, exhaustion, higher nutrient intake, or anything else; every power has some major drawback in addition to its standard limits and weaknesses[/list]
[*] Superbred are a known element in the world, and are often discriminated against for being different
[list][*] Law requires that all superbred must register as such and have a file containing information on their power
[*] Some superbred get away with hiding that they were superbred, and thus go unrecorded
[*] Cavan is recorded, while Jude is not, as too could be the case for (tbn) if you'd like, seeing as that would make them as a team even more in the "we're doing illegal shit"
[*] The reason superbred have to register is because they are thought to be more violent than humans and their file is meant to be a means of keeping them under control, as well as a key as to how to take them out of commission should they act out; this is why Jude is unrecorded, he doesn't want them to have that power over him[/list]
[*] Jude's luck works naturally, and he puts no actual effort into making it work, things just naturally work out for him, one way or another. However, this isn't to say that his life is one big fortunate play of events, as his power, like all powers, comes with a drawback: the more his luck saves him, the more a concentration of negative karma builds up, until finally, it all comes out in one explosion of bad luck, resulting in what Jude calls "Bad Days". On these days, it is known that all the forces of nature suddenly conspire against him and Jude is in danger of dying simply by getting out of bed in the morning
[*] As for (tbn)'s [url=https://powerlisting.fandom.com/wiki/Psychometry?so=search]Psychometry[/url], do what you will, interpret as you wish, I'm excited to hear your input!
[*] I'm unsure if Angie was superbred. On the one hand, I can see her having had persuasion as her power, on the other, I like the idea of Cavan being the only one in the family who is superbred, and thus being a black sheep because it[/list]

Between keeping up with his studies, running a homework-help forum, and just trying to be a kid, Noah has always seen his life as fairly hectic. Though, he never knew quite how hectic his life could get until the night he spoke to...the stranger... All Noah remembers about that night is being sent a strange link, where he was immediately prompted to solve a series of puzzles to unlock a video file. Of course, Noah did what any kid in his position would do...he solved it! From there everything is a blank, and with his computer fried, his website destroyed with an untraceable virus, and all chat records deleted, he has no way of figuring out what the hell even happened. No way, that is...until a couple of government agents suddenly appear in his home. It doesn't take a genius like Noah to understand just what the hell is going on by that point, and while Noah's mom is instantly furious at the agents for threatening her baby, Noah only has questions and absolute intrigue as he suddenly finds himself knowing everything about these agents and more.

[list][*] So this genius kid is contacted by an unknown individual and sent a link to a video; this video contains a series of images and scenes and other visual information paired with various sounds that basically work as a means of implanting information into one's brain; in this case, Noah is receiving all of the government's secrets (yes this is inspired by the series, Chuck)
[*] The transfer wasn't completely untrackable as the unknown would have liked, and so Noah is approached by two separate divisions of the government. One is sent to kill, the other is sent to contain; the CIA and a specialty force called the Department of Unusual Proceeding, or DUP, which specializes in superbred matters, specifically
[*] Turns out Kelly and Noah's mom know each other, and they actually went to school together before Kelly suddenly "vanished" and abandoned (mom) {yes, they dated}
[*] Once they find out that the government secrets are in Noah's [i]head[/i] and not, y'know, stored on a hard drive, it becomes a matter of what should be done with the boy
[list][*] They can't kill him, because he's their only access to the information in his brain now
[*] (tbn) is against locking him away in a compound; as would be (mom)
[*] But they can't just leave him be because enemy agents would certainly use him
[*] Thus (tbn) and Kelly become Noah's handlers, keeping an eye on him as he continues through his normal life until the government can rebuild their database and something can be done to remove the information from Noah's mind[/list]
[*] Roleplay will involve episodic adventures of Noah using his intellect to help Kelly and (tbn) through various cases that rise up in the area

[*] Superbred are a known element in the world, and are often discriminated against for being different
[list][*] Law requires that all superbred must register as such and have a file containing information on their power
[*] Some superbred get away with hiding that they were superbred, and thus go unrecorded
[*] Kelly is recorded, while Noah is not
[*] The reason superbred have to register is because they are thought to be more violent than humans and their file is meant to be a means of keeping them under control, as well as a key as to how to take them out of commission should they act out
[*] The reason that Noah is unrecorded is because his mom simply hasn't realized he's superbred since he doesn't show any signs of it beyond his intelligence[/list]
[*] Kelly's reflexes work naturally, and he doesn't need to put much effort into it; his drawback comes in the form of occasional clumsiness, severe enough that he can get seriously injured just by taking two steps
[*] If you wanna make (tbn) superbred, feel free to give them whatever power you want so long as it's not crazy
[*] Ms. Simmons is not superbred and does not know that Kelly is either, just another reason why Noah is unrecorded; and yes, Ms. Simmons is fully aware that Kelly is the father, but she's not saying shit about it because she angy
[*] Fun Fact: This takes place in the same world as Lucky Ones, above, and Kelly is actually Jude's cousin. They grew up together in England, and even shared a place to live after moving to the US together, until Kelly disappeared and now all Jude knows is that Kelly works with "some very important people"[/list]
