@NerdyFox I'll try to get an oc up some time tonight. I won't be in town tomorrow, so hopefully I can get it done before I go to bed.

My thoughts would be an almost packlike structure. A leader, possibly a coleader, second is command, third, a few normal ranked members, and that one guy that everyone shits on. Possibly a newbie vamp or just the youngest.
My idea for the coven history was that, about a decade ago, they fell prey to an attack by hunters. The attack weakened their numbers and killed off their leader, and they were forced to move. They came to the town to settle, and had a short spat with Father Waltet before they came to an agreement. Some of the vamps are ok with coexisting with humans, others aren't so ok. But they do it for the good of the coven.

You can make as many characters as you can handle.
@dann: those look great. I'm pretty open as far as weapons go.

Several, hopefully :)
Either one of those sounds good. If you go with the legacy guy, perhaps he could have personally known Father Walter. And as such, he can better appreciate what a disappointment Luca is to hunterkind.
I'm super pumped about all the interest this is getting! So here's a few more details that I've been working out in my head. Let me know what you guys think!
So I've been set on doing something a little more religion heavy than your typical modern vampire tale. Back in day, vampires' weaknesses were essentially anything holy, and I'd like to play on that. Not all of our hunters will be particularly religious, but some may be trained by a special section of the Catholic church that specializes in demon exorcising, vampires, and the like.
Here's a brief rundown of a couple of my character ideas.
There will be Father Walter, the late priest of the town's old as dirt Catholic church. He was once a founding member of the guild that the hunters all belong to, and a major influence on those who partake in the more religious take on vampire hunting. He retired and settled down at the church were he spent his boyhood. He knew about the vampire coven in the town, but over the years, he had gotten a bit soft. He made a deal with them that, as long as they never harmed humans, he wouldn't sick the guild on them. Now that humans are supposedly dying, that deal is off.
Father Walter has recently passed prior to the start of the RP. He went out late one night, not telling anyone where he was going, and just never came home. His old, beat up car was found parked along one of the rural roadsides in the town, empty.
Then there's Father Luca, the young, rather unfortunate protégé of Father Walter who has inherited the elder priest's vampire hunting legacy now that there's trouble brewing in town. Until recently, the meek Father Luca didn't know vampires were even a thing. Upon being given a large, dusty book that was addressed to him after Father Walter's death, he discovered that it was a detailed manual on how to exorcise demons, vampires, run the church and keep the town safe. In it, Father Walter describes his old vampire hunting guild, and suggests that, if Father Luca needs help, he call them. Needless to say, the young priest, who only recently got out of seminary, inherited an entire church, just found out that vampires may be hunting people in his town, and is decisively a pacifist who couldn't hurt a fly needs help. He will remain torn on whether or not these vampires are even evil to begin with. His major conflict throughout this RP will be whether he should side with the hunters because his mentor told him to, or whether or not he should call them off and believe the vampires when they say they aren't to blame.
Lastly, I have an idea for a hunter character who is also technically a priest, but one who is specially trained to hunt evil creatures rather than preach and hold down a church. I don't have a lot of the details worked out for him yet.
Thoughts, ideas, concerns?

A small town on the East Coast has slowly been growing. As it loses it's 'small time' vibe, more and more strange drifters come wandering in. For centuries, this town has been home to a vampire coven. They have lived in relative peace with their human neighbors, decisively only living on the blood of animals. However, humans have recently begun to die, and it looks as though some sort of blood drinking creature is to blame.
Enter the vampire hunters. They're caught wind of the mysterious deaths in the town and have come to put an end to it. They, of course, assume the coven is to blame. Will a war break out before the true culprit can be caught?

I would like to leave this RP. If you guys could stop tagging me in every post, that would be great.
How did we go from talking in the cafeteria to walking around outside?

Sasha nodded to the Commander as he came over. The hulking man was just scraping up the last of his soup as Harley spoke. He perked up a little at the mention of the doors being opened again. Being stuck in here for the last few days hadn't been very fun. Sasha had spent a lot of that time sleeping, but during his waking hours, he had been bored out of his mind. He didn't really know anyone here well enough to waste time with them.
"Maybe we should organize a hunting party," He suggested, "The soup's getting a little thin." Sasha demonstrated by swirling the last watery drops of broth in his bowl. "If we could kill one of those mutated animals out there, we could have a couple hundred pounds of meat."
During his three days out in the wild, Sasha had encountered several of the new fauna. Among them were roaches the size of cats, wolves that traveled in packs and easily out weighed a pony, and deer with massive antlers and thick muscles.
