Please note that this character is NPC. She is already a full demon and will serve as our mentor/person who unseals our souls.

Character Skeleton

Name: Mabel Chester

Age: 426

Gender: Female

Sexual Orientation: Asexual

Physical Appearance: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5fZqL0wNsxk/T6xCSWIpXOI/AAAAAAAAAEc/ieBWpD9mnGw/s1600/vampire2.jpg

Personality: Mabel is a very dominate personality. She is loud and tough, to the point even a drill sergeant would raise an eyebrow. This probably comes from her experience in many militaries, at least before they started checking records. To the outside she is a no nonsense woman that can be a very difficult woman to work with. She does have a soft side, but only those very close to her will ever see it. Those she cares about can be assured her unquestioning devotion, though it may still be somewhat cold compared to others.

History: Born in 17th century England she was the daughter of a poor human woman, Abigale, and her Vampire class demon lover, George. Like most demon children her father was an active part in her life. Despite crippling poverty she and her family scraped out a meager life in the countryside. At age 16 her father unsealed her soul, ending the polio like symptoms she had grown up with.

As luck would have it her soul was also Vampire class, something that made both her parents very proud. Her life was blessed and happy for four more years before disaster struck. At age 20 the local clergy finally grew wind of this isolated family, and went to investigate. Father Robin, the priest assigned to the case, accompanied by a mob attacked the house at noon and set it ablaze. Abigale and George hid their unwilling beloved daughter in a secret celler and fled the house. George and Abigale were soon killed by the mob, their agonizing screams forever embedded into Mabel's ears.

It was weeks before she finally arose from the wreckage, and left England. A drifter she began impersonating a man and enlisting in the various militaries of Europe under different names. The monotony of a soldier's life was comforting to her and was her life for centuries, she was especially adept at finding units with demon officers and many demon enlisted that could accommodate her weaknesses.

After WWII however her time of service was over. Modern technology had made it impossible for her to serve because she had no documents and the uniforms/hygiene left her exposed to the sun (she had taken to coating her skin in dirt and rags for years and serving only in winter but modern facilities made this impossible). Finally exiled she joined the exodus to America and found comfort in cooking. She moved every few years to avoid people seeing her lack of aging and even studied and various cooking schools over the years.

Currently she is a head cook in a small restaurant, and is enjoying her tranquil life.

Since we already have three players I think we can go ahead and start. I'll still accept one more person but we have enough to do the RP.

Two things.
First, shouldn't the tag be apply? As opposed to 'Jump In'
Second, is there any information about the restaurant Ash works in that I can use for my post? All we've seen is the kitchen.
I kinda figure it might be a good idea for us to begin near each other.

1) I tried to change it to apply but for some reason it didn't take. Once I get off my iPad and to a computer I'll try it there. Good catch though.

2) I'm leaving that open so that we can all set the scene. So far all that has been established is that there is a break room, messy kitchen and the place is a little seedy

I tend to let everyone get a lot of say in setting the scenes when I can

If you need/want me to edit her description of your characters in my post please tell me. I would hate to feed you things about your own characters.

On another note I can't register this as "full" or "Apply" since I started as "jump in" so I'll just have to remember that for next time.

One: Should we worry about turn order? I won't be able to post a reply immediately, but if, when I'm able to reply, Mugin still isn't ready, should I wait for him to post? Or are we just going to do this in a post when you can thing, and just don't post TOO much so that others aren't left out.
Two: If you're going to be posting multiple characters, may I recommend writing the names of the characters you play as on the top as a heading? To make it completely clear what's going on? I kinda thought Mugin had been the one who'd posted the second one, and was very confused as to why there was mention of demons there.
Three: Ah hell, Zachary's screwed. He has no idea how to wait people.

1) don't worry about turn order. Just keep the time table current (no time jumps)

2)I'll be sure to do that. Mabel is an NPC but so your welcome to control her as well I'm just making sure she is progressing with the story for now

3) Ya I figured it would be funny
1x Thank Thank

I really don't think Zachary could be considered 'hard working' by anyone. Efficient, maybe - he'd have to be something in order to clean those plates so damn fast - but not hard working. Otherwise he'd have actually passed in school.

Working on my post, by the way. How long is this going to go on for, do you think? The hiding in a kitchen, waiting for stuff to go down.
Not that I have anything against character development and the like, but what drew me in was the secret demon society being bosses.

EDIT: Zach dun f*cked up!
:D
How do you guys feel about swearing, by the way? I put an uncensored f-word in my post, but if you want I can change it into a censored one. The swearing itself is necessary - the point was that there was a kid to hear it - but I'll keep it to a minimum if you don't want it in this RP.

I'm thinking a couple game days. Then some tragic incident to force Mabel's hand. But if y'all want it sooner I can arrange that. :)

I've got no problem with cussing. Mabel is going to be doing it a lot (former military)

I'll update the post after work then. Thanks

Bare in mind though, the transformations will take several months in game so we will be doing time jumps

I don't really want to rush anything, but the question is kind of 'what is there to rush'? We're in a restaurant doing our jobs, so we can see our daily lives already. We can show bits and pieces of our school lives and the like in the aforementioned time skips, if we need to at all.
If you have anything interesting planned here, keep doing this thing. It's admittedly a bit fun to watch Zachary get screwed over, and Ash and Eric are pretty interesting characters that I'd be interested in getting to know.
Exploring our characters can happen in the time-skips, though. Or in the actiony bits.

I don't want to pressure you too much, and I don't want this without unanimous approval (while I'd prefer a timeskip, I'm not so inclined that I'd ruin the fun for other people - and isn't that the point of roleplaying?), but my vote is on speeding up the tragedy, or whatever.

I'd imagine that a lot of the character development will happen during the transformation period. When I get off work I will start directing us towards that point unless anyone has any objections of course

Well, is it going to be due to mind-control stuff, or are you just going to God-Mod them?
If it's the former, I guess I could get behind it. But I'd really rather make sure it's IC for Zach before a post about him is made without my writing it.
