lmao yoyohayli beat me to the punch with the same resource

Another page on this site further breaks down the alignment system if it still feels a little alien to anyone, though. I really like how they illustrated each step of their thought process.

I actually really like those factions and the vampire I'm making would fit well into that first one as a Progenitor. I might steal those and stick them up in the OP along with some others just to solidify the worldbuilding lol


Oh, cool!

@unicorgi If Móran is human, how is she able to have telekinesis, "fire", and "energy manipulation"? Is she a mage or is she somehow supernatural beyond being a human with a curse (which she got from... somewhere? :D)
Playing a character like her could be super interesting, it's just bound to bring up some curious questions for the other players, haha ;P

Ohh okay I thought you had an explanation ready, sorry *hides face* :--D Maybe work on an explanation for those, I believe people would enjoy having more info on how the curse works and what specifically makes a human able to do supernatural stuff?

Edit: oh yeah obviously you dont have to reveal it all if it's something you want to keep confidential! I still think it's better to have a mostly fleched out character to start rp'ing with instead of having to make things up along the way

I'm contemplating on making another character since I've had this idea of a Näkki/Nøkken inspired character (a mythological water spirit/creature that is present in Nordic (≈Scandinavian) mythology and also appears as a similar creature named Kappa in Japanese mythology)

I just think it could be an interesting character for a setting with supernatural deities like arcangels and such :> (Plus I'm Finnish and that was like the one mythical creature that was a big part of my childhood so I have nostalgia value lol)

Woohoo! Yas :>

This is less related to Norse gods and such and more a part of folk lores, like in my country (and other Nordic countries too I assume) kids are often told not to swim too deep into lakes "so that the Näkki living in the lake/river won't take you away". Kind of sinister when I put it like that but at least it was a cool story to hear as a child and I think I actually feared the mythical creature because of it. Didn't drown tho, so I guess it worked lol
ps. I say Nordic because if you nitpick, Scandinavia only includes three Nordic countries but you get the jist xD

@Cio AAAH I was going to have that be part of Evren's backstory! You mindreader!! AAHH!

He's a shapeshifter so an idea I had was that for a while he lived in and around Scandinavia and preyed upon people by taking shape of various mythological creatures so that he could kill and feed from them. For some time he was a Nøkken in a pond with a violin, he remembers it bittersweetly as he took innocent lives but he felt feared and beautiful.

OMG?????? THATS TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE LOL
But also a great bridge for the two characters, dont you think? Mine wouldnt seem so out of place and she'd have someone who knew who and what she was!

@Cio Perhaps they knew each other back then? It's recent enough that Evren will remember her but she might not recognize him, as he shifts form basically every day. Could be interesting :>

@Kinjaav I say lets do it! It's too much of a coincidence not to explore tbh xD Like really, Näkki's aren't super well known, even the Japanese variant is much more known lol.
Maybe Evren and Aava met a really long time ago? I'm planning on making Aava really old because she's basically a drowned spirit lol

@Cio I really like that because the myths I drew from to create Evren include Albanian legends about the Dhampir, a vampire created basically by a werewolf and a watery ghost (because old European myth is WILD). He doesn't remember that, necessarily, but her nature may be so familiar to him that he feels a connection or protectiveness toward her.

Here's a little summary that might make some more sense, but honestly it probably won't really come up and definitely won't be this literal. Still fascinating, though.

Here's a new faction that covers Evren and I think a few others, too.

The Old Owls, “Orloks”
Alignment: any neutral
Most old vampires are old for a reason; they avoid human society as much as possible, feed inconspicuously and infrequently, and generally lead lonely existences of isolation in the wilderness. They’re generally very civil but don’t like to be bothered by outsiders. Occasionally they form small covens but more often live alone.
This is largely a label placed upon them by outsiders; younger, socialized vampires teasingly perpetuate the names for the most part (particularly Orlok, referencing the 1922 silent film Nosferatu), some take pride in being peaceable old owls.
