THIS IS NOT ACCEPTING CHARACTERS! [i]It was three months ago that two of your fellow pack members were caught murdering humans for fun. At first, it was believed that an animal was committing these crimes. Then, a rumor began to circulate around the small town. A rumor of a wolf who had changed into a man. Most laughed this off as a silly story, one that couldn't possibly be true. However, there were some that did not. These people burnt your home to the ground, along with some of your pack members. They gave no mercy, and your home was gone in a puff of smoke. The two who had started this were put to death, but this did not give your pack somewhere to go. You have now left your home in the mountains and moved to the city until a new location can be decided upon. So far, it has been slow going, and no one is happy about this arrangement. Something is coming, something worse than what has already befallen the pack the healer, Kiara, continues to warn. What will you do when it comes?[/i] Okay, so. That's a brief intro into this roleplay. You will be a member of a pack of werewolves who have lost their home and are now making due in the city. I will not be naming a specific one because it honestly doesn't matter, and I don't want any specific landmarks in this RP. If you'd like, we can decide on a name for it together. This will be very player driven. There will be an overarching plot which will be introduced slowly throughout the story. The players have the option to follow after this right away, or save it until another part of this plot is introduced. This will be a modern day, modern world RP. So yes, there are cell phones, cars, and computers. There may be some mature themes, such as violence or romance and extreme loss. However, though gore doesn't bother me, keep in mind that it might offend some of your fellow roleplayers. Also, obviously, keep smut out of this roleplay. [hider=Werewolf Facts] - They shift into real wolves, though slightly bigger. This would not be noticeable to a normal human. - On a full moon, a shift is involuntary, and will happen no matter how much you try not to. - Stronger and faster than humans without trying, but not enough that it is extremely noticeable. - Silver is poison to them when in the bloodstream, but not when touching the skin. - They heal about 5x faster than humans, but the more wounds there are, the longer it will take. - When shifting, clothes tend to tear, so you'll want to remove them first. - (May never come up) Mates will mark each other with a bite to the skin. Werewolves mate for life. - Anyone can challenge for Alpha in a fight, but the most likely competitor is the Beta. It is almost always a fight to the death. [/hider] [hider= Pack Information] This is everything the pack should know. Those excluded will be listed in each fact. - Kiara lost her mother (Josie) and her younger sister (Becca) in the fire. - Erica was bit by the two renegades. <- Erica does not know this. - The two renegades were Jason and David. They were put to death for their crimes. - Kiara can feel when one of the pack is hurt, and the Alpha can feel when someone leaves or joins the pack. This would include death. - It is against pack law to tell a human what they are. - Any child born of a werewolf, even if with a human, is always a werewolf. They will have the same abilities as any other.

Wolf: [img=http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk462/StormlessChaos/redwolf.jpg] History: Kiara was trained to be pack healer all of her life by her mother. However, she had not expected to take over so soon. When her mother and younger sister died in the fire, Kiara was forced to look after all of the wounded on her own with the incomplete training she had received. Since moving to the city, she has been having nightmares. Some of these tell of things to come, and some show her what has already happened. One thing is clear though, there is something evil out there. Not many know that Kiara found her mother before her home burned to the ground, and that stricken with grief she had just laid there about to let the fire take her. They do know, however, that someone pulled her from the burning building even if the reason remains a secret. As a spiritual leader, it can not be known that she almost gave up. Personality: Kiara is not soft-spoken, but not loud either. Her presence commands respect from most people, as without her, they would not be able to survive. However, she never expects this from anyone and is always looking out for the pack. She is kind and willing to help anyone in need, even if they might not exactly be friendly. The one thing she loves more than her pack, though, is dancing. Kiara feels as if she can express herself through it more easily than through her words. Because of this, and the way she was raised, Kiara tends to be what you would call "spiritual," especially because she is one of the very few in the pack who are in touch with what some call magic. Goal in Life: To keep the pack out of harms way, at all costs. Other: Her left thigh has a large burn scar from the fire which can also be seen in her wolf form, she has become increasingly self conscious about this.[/hider] ADDED: WARNING YOUR CHARACTERS WILL GET ATTACKED IN THIS RP. That being said I will never kill them or seriously harm them. At least not to the point of not recovering. I will always warn you first, and discuss the extent of the attack with you before I do this, but it is part of the plot. They will be ambushed, which is why I will discuss it with you first and possibly collaborate a post with you. But in some cases there will be nothing your character can do but take it.
