@Danvers Ahhhh I see. Yeah, I would add all of that to her CS, that way you can refer back to it if need be!
I'm thinking that her telepathy can probably better bypass a mind that has been made vulnerable or stripped of it's barriers. So maybe these instances would occur when someone would drink a potion or something like that. This way she's still well within the playing field!
@Danvers Great character! Just a reminder: Lexie is still a very young vampire, which I'm sure you already know since you made her and allheheh. To clarify, is she 43 in age or is she 23? If she's 43, her thirst for blood won't be as apparent, but if she's 23 and only been a vampire for 3 years, she'll have a lot of adversities to face, i.e: the hard-to-resist thirst for blood, the ability to blend in with the humans and seem 'normal', her empowered strength/agility, as well as her new-found telepathy.
With her telepathy, I'll set some boundaries so that you know the boundaries and whatnot of them, that way you'll understand how to write it out better. So, this is very dependent on her age and her experiences. Regardless if she's 43 or 23, those ages will experience similar difficulty, the only changes probably being upon humans instead of supernatural beings. There will be a vast variety of minds that she's exposed to. Most of the thoughts she hears are people that don't have 'protected minds'. I would say that this is a common trait for hunters, but I think I should add variance and make it among regular people as well--so if they're just cautious people or guarded people, they'd have a certain resistance. The hunters, though, know all-too-well about the supernatural realm and it's different capabilities, so they will have resistances just below that of supernaturals themselves. With mastery she could hear the deeper turmoils/fears/desires of people and approaching on hearing them of lesser supernatural beings. With Mastery (if she gets there) the powers require great concentration on vampires of equal or higher footing (she can be detected by them), cannot be used against witches, and can be used on wolves but not the pack (while the pack is communicating through telepathy)
@sempis I believe I had Hoekage PM you about the changes to make!
ALSO~ I would like to formally announce in the OOC that @Hoekage is a Co-GM for this RP!
I still have yet to receive CSes from you all! I will be starting the IC, but if you guys are able to create your characters by the end of the week, I will gladly look over your characters and see to it that we get you in! If your interest has changed, please let me know! Thank you for your initial interest! <3
The IC is finally up! Thank you all for your patience as I try to set everything up! I hope you enjoy the introduction as I tried my best to make it as appealing as possible but not a cluster fuck/wall of text to read.
If you haven't already, please try to establish relations between other characters! I know that we have a lot of characters that are new to Salem, so relations are not as crucial for them. I'm guilty of this as well, I need to create relations between other characters heheh. BUT, I figured I could start things up to save from anymore time being wasted trying to establish everything right away.
ALSO! I have been working on the NPCs which is located in the Char tab! I still have two more sets of NPCs to work through, but I found that it might not be necessary to create them all just yet since everyone will just be working on an introductory post this round!
Keep in mind that an eerie presence has taken over Salem, and each character, will no doubt, be able to sense this. Each character has potentially been sensing weird things that indicate some sort of imbalance. You, as a player, have free reign to create any omens or bad symbols that help to add to this idea, appropriately written based on your character and their perception of things. If your character has the ability to see the future or receive visions, you'll be receiving a PM from me shortly about information that your character has seen.
@smarty0114Shawn will always be accepted into any roleplay that I-
Quinton looks lovely! He seems like a very solid character and I'm excited to see how he does within the RP! He is accepted.
@Wistful Dreams Wonderful character! I love the different dimensions of Chris. Accepted gurl.
Also! These two characters will definitely have an established relationship since Chris is the high warlock of the coven and Quinton joined during this time.
• Inform everyone, or at least the GMs, if you're unable to post in respects to the pace of the roleplay. • Be sure to read everyone's post before posting your own. Collab posts are definitely encouraged. • If you want something drastic to happen within the story, or whatever, please let the GMs know your idea via PM. • Please use the header given below for organizational purposes!

✡ The Beginning
》 It has been some time in which nearly every individual taking place within the supernatural community has experienced omens or visions of a mysterious force that is hinting towards catastrophic events. This has stirred fear and panic — causing several covens, packs, and groups to close their doors and lock their gates. Here in Salem, Massachusetts, survival is hard when placed in the heart of the supernaturals' dwelling, thus, it is easy to become callous and selfish, shutting out the rest of society to ensure one's own safety. Though, it is now that these tendencies have been cast aside, and a door has been opened, inviting fellow creatures of the night to come and discuss their experiences and their fears to help inform the rest of the community. Perhaps the time has come to ignore all rivalries and centuries-long quarrels to allow for a chance at some kind of unity, regardless of how short-lived it may be, to discover what it is to come.
》 Founder's Day has come! A huge event for the people of Salem to gather within Washington Park in celebration of another year coming for the small city-town. Pop up shops, food trucks, and several booths open up to give several activities for the citizens to enjoy. The day begins with live music, celebration, drinking, and continues on until a fireworks show wraps up the night. The streets will be crowded, the park will be full, and the people will be lively — but what about the eerie presence of Salem's best guests?

► Sebastian simply wants purpose with his life, his main goal is to be able to make his mark on the world. Pushing to unfold his destiny, he tries to be careful as he treads through his life, making sure that he doesn’t turn a blind eye to any possible opportunities that are offered to him. His greatest aspiration was to become a man of bravery, honor, and valor. In doing so, he found himself joining the marines in hopes to maximize his strength and help make a change in the world. Sadly, he was stationed for awhile and was left disappointed and unfulfilled since he was never mobilized, nor called upon for any instruction. While many would prefer this, Sebastian never intended to join for rapacious reasons, but rather for the thrill and rewarding feeling that would come with the job. Since his return from being stationed, he’s left lost, becoming stagnant in his life. His aspiration still remains, but it is veiled by a thick fog.

life at ritman high
Sebastian came to the hierarchy much later than the rest of the students at Ritman High. Moving to the United States was a culture shock for him and he took a lot of time by himself to further learn the language and culture, as well as taking time for himself to properly cope with the events of his life. His father, a wealthy, mad scientist, and his mother, gone, had left him living in an unhealthy environment, exposed to the strange obscurities of his father’s work without any other family to call upon. In his own independence, Sebastian negotiated with his father and they agreed to allow him to move to the U.S. There, in the isolation of a large home with an unassertive, yielding nanny to care for him, he began anew. He lived with few rules and all the freedom he could’ve ever wanted, but never abused it for he has always had a dedicated complex embedded in his character. Sebastian had always lived headstrong, even when he resided in Germany, so his predicament had changed little. In spite of his private, undisclosed childhood, he found great distraction within Ritman High.
Upon entry, he was already given the indentifier as the ‘Hot Foreign Jock’, even before joining the varsity football team. In the beginning, he talked very little, paying more attention to his academics and his extracurricular activities that he signed up for. As time went on, his nerves calmed and he felt more comfortable within the atmosphere, and he began to cycle in with the hierarchy of Ritman high, becoming involuntarily placed at the high-end of the pyramid. Sebastian engaged more with his classmates and spent a lot of his time bonding with his teammates, but all-the-while still adopting his quiet demeanor. His increasing involvement had led him to joining the NHS and it further amplified his determination with his academics and his sports. As he maintained his respectful and calm attitude, he was known to be the nicest of the jocks and a well-liked person all around. Except nobody ever got close to him and he remained a mystery to the student body. He didn’t have a single relationship, nor did he grow fond of any particular individual. As his highschool years passed, he eventually befriended a group of classmates that he would still consider his closest friends, despite still leaving them distant enough to not feel the need to expose himself entirely. For Sebastian, they were like his saving grace to his increasingly bad mind set. Growing up is hard, and for Sebastian, he could only mask his loneliness.
Life for Sebastian during his time at Ritman High was all the things that it should’ve been—fun, eventful, productive—but he still felt the underlying emptiness that he tried so hard to fill with meager, teenage antics. Although such antics would be deemed as completion and accomplishment, he couldn’t deny the haunting feeling of his past that hung over his head like a dark, growing cloud of thunder. As he anticipated it’s strike, he fervently decided to join the marines for hope of purpose, assuming it would satisfy his aspirations and eliminate his self-hatred and developing feelings of worthlessness. And as he graduated with high hopes, he became recognized by his school for making this decision. His high school years were then seen as a huge success within his life, but such feelings are now swayed, believing he followed the wrong path for his life. Returning six years later, without any notable achievements during his time in the marines, his feelings of self-hatred and issues of self-worth resurfaced.
Sebastian possesses the power of Force-Field Manipulation.
Sebastian can create, shape, and manipulate force-fields, a field of energy without mass that acts as a barrier. Objects affected by the particular force relating to the field are unable to pass through the field and reach the other side.
Sebastians most common usage is forming shields, barriers, and bubbles around things he wishes to encase or protect. In combat, he can also be seen creating strong force-fields around his arms, fists, or legs to increase the power of his strikes. He is moving on to being able to move/lift objects that he encases within his force-fields. As he progresses with his powers, he has the potential to unlock several more aspects and usages with the power.

► Sebastian can protect himself and others easily. The strong density of the force-fields can withstand heavy blows dependent on his concentration. He is also capable of forming force-fields around his body for combat use or more immediate self-protection. As Sebastian grows with his abilities, he’ll be able to make makeshift force-fields to use as platforms.

► Too much usage of the power can cause instability, especially when he is required to deposit increased concentration. The power is best utilized with a quick reaction time, requiring Sebastian to be light on his feet when the time calls for it. To be able to conjure makeshift force-fields that are more complex than an average barrier or shield requires a more complex concentration.

psyche
Growing up, Sebastian has always had a determined, independent, and impenetrable personality. He is as productive as he is independent, finding himself to prefer doing things on his own. This leads to his introversion and his avoidance of help when it comes to tasks he is required to do. Even from working as a team when he played football, even from learning cooperation and alliance from the marines, he still remains independent, but thanks to the two, it is much less extreme. On the contrary, he is a man that keeps to his word and doesn’t make promises unless he is sure to keep to them. In the small instances where he has failed someone or not seen a task to its completion, he is very hard on himself and generally doesn’t let go of his mistake. This aside, he is very productive and chooses to fill his time with things that will better him rather than fill it with enjoyment. Sebastian is often found thinking a lot, and he is more perceptive than judging. He tries to see things from all angles, regardless of how small the scenario may be.
Sebastian tries to treat others the way he wishes to be treated. He doesn’t treat others with distaste and he is always respectful as can be. A lot of people call him old-school for his strong feelings towards respect and responsibility, but he appreciates this aspect of himself. Sebastian is also very observant and curious. He tries to learn as much as he can, ranging from the most minimal events to the biggest lectures of his life.
Ritman High has taught Sebastian to enjoy life and friendship and happiness. But his character flaw is that if he invests too much time into enjoyment, he will have nothing to show for himself than the temporary feelings he creates in those instances. As of recent, he has been lost in a vortex of emotions, social constructs, and philosophy—he more commonly struggles with his views of himself more than he has in the past, unable to find the balance. And as time continues, his tired mind juggles more than it can handle.
Sebastian doesn’t smile often, but when he does, it as genuine as ever. The majority of the time, he keeps a straight face and it is near impossible to determine what he’s thinking, for his mind is generally scattered with thoughts. The close friends he has made at Ritman High are what pull him away from his solitude and uplift him to a place where he feels the warmth of happiness, but he struggles to hold onto it. Sebastian values them strongly and there isn’t anything he wouldn’t do to ensure their safety and sanity.
@smarty0114 Sure thing! I'm still waiting on a few character sheets so I haven't set a deadline yet. Go ahead and start creating!
To everyone, I'm sorry for how long this is taking to get started. I'm pretty busy IRL so I've been only working on this in bits and pieces. I'd like to formally introduce @Severance as our official Co-GM for the RP! If you have any questions or concerns, you may go to him as well!
@sweetlikesugar Awesome character! Before she's accepted, I would ask that you place in the correct color coding and insert spaces between the paragraphs if you're able to. Also, there's a little bit of a coding error in her personality where you didn't list her traits off corresponding to the sheet.
@sempis I'm still waiting on a few more CSes and I don't want to rush everyone. I think at the start of this week I'll set a deadline for those that put in interest but have not yet created a character.
