I can't believe I've stuck myself with three girls for all of next year who think screaming, shrieking and making sex noises consists of banter. -_-

Posts will be delayed until wednesday, my dudes. Got some uni wori to catch up on.
Howdy all! I figured it was about time I spruced up my bio section. Or, y'know. Wrote something in it other than WIP.
So! Things to know about my mostly-good self:
I'm a 20 year old female, hailing from a not-so-small town in the north east of England. I'm currently about a third through my second year at Uni, and have made some awesome friends there so far. I also debate. That's always fun - arguing has always been an annoying trait (for others, that is) of mine, so putting it into something one can have on their CV is great. The competitions are super fun too. Anyway, roleplaying.
If you've known me for a short or long while, you'll likely know what an absolute slut for fantasy I am. High fantasy to low, I love those kind of roleplays and will nearly always be interested in new ones that crop up. The same applies for Sci-Fi, but at the moment, I'm not feeling inspiration for a good ol' spacefaring RP. Gotta get the Mass Effect out again, get me craving some Turian booty again. However, I won't go for only these ones. SoL can interest me if they're run properly, alongside horror, mystery, romance, etc. I won't ignore something simply because it doesn't have magic or flying bears in it or something. As for level, I like to consider my writing high-casual to low-advanced. Hopefully others will agree with me on that one, haha. Anyway, here's a list of specific fandoms I enjoy, kind of in order of preference:
Lord of the Rings Universe (Including The Hobbit)
Dragon Age series
Elder Scrolls
Mass Effect Trilogy
Star Trek (I'd love a Discovery one right now!)
Star Wars (Specifically the time around the Prequels; while I shan't get into the whole Prequel/Original war on which is better, roleplaying makes for more excitement in the prequel era. Clone Wars guys, c'mon!)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Fringe
Greek Mythology (PJO, but with the amount of Camp Half-Blood roleplays that have come and gone, I'd prefer one based more on the Original Mythologies)
Norse Mythology
Marvel
Left 4 Dead
The Walking Dead (Or any Post-Apocalypse Roleplay, really.)
'A Song of Ice and Fire' Series
House of Night Series
True Blood
Deus Ex
Blood Ties
The Vampire Diaries (I admittedly abandoned the show and books when the plot got too boring, but I still like the Universe. I'd join a roleplay based in it, if it had original characters, that is.)
Pacific Rim
Aaannndd I'll stop the list here before I go on forever. Basically there's a lot, particularly in the realm of fantasy. Hit me up if you want me in your roleplay, of if you'd like to do a 1x1 based around any of those areas, or even some additional ones if you think I'd be interested. I love original plots and Universes too, especially if they're done well.
Don't feel pressured to rush it or anything my friend. :) Also, I am retiring for the night, so I'll likely take a look in the morning (Or afternoon, which is when I'll likely wake up), if you decide to pop it on. :)
That sounds great - and thanks for taking it so well. I know a lot of people who don't take constructive criticism very well, and simply leave in a mood. You can go ahead and make an Angel character - just keep in mind that Heaven will most likely be aware of the fact that he/she will be down there helping out, so Heaven has got to be okay with it, otherwise he/she'd be killed off in no time. If you want to do an already established angelic character from the series, do ask me beforehand, because there are a few that are out-of-bounds, and I'd hate for you to waste time making a CS over it.
Otherwise, I'd say that work on Vladimir is a good idea - simply because it's a really cool concept being a hybrid. Also, he's a pirate. Pirates are cool. :D
First of all, a mistake on my part - they are known as Skinwalkers, not Skin-changers.
Overall, your sheet is just way too vague. For a High-Casual, borderline Advanced Roleplay, I'm going to need a lot more detail from you; I'm not looking for IC posts that are going to be of this standard, so it needs to be more in depth.
Starting from the top: "Old" As an age, doesn't really cut it for me. If it was an ancient creature like an Angel, I could sort of understand, but I'm going to need some sort of estimate.
Personality; going to need more than one line from you. No-one is that two-dimensional in real life. I mean, you've stated that one of his weaknesses is that he regrets his past, and it is 'debilitating'. Does it cause him depression? Crippling anxiety? Whatever it is, it contradicts the personality traits you've listed.
Backstory; I don't mind backstories being expressed IC'ly, but I still want something written down in the CS other than "it's a long story". If it were going to be relevant to the plot, then yeah, I could understand that you want some mystery in there - but the main plotline is stopping Seals being cracked open. And you've wiped out the mystery by saying what his tragedy is - a dead wife. That to me just looks like you can't be bothered writing out a decent backstory for this character until it becomes relevant in the IC - If you are really stuck on how to write this out, I don't mind waiting for something good, and you can always ask me for tips and the like on what to put.
My final issue is with the Hybrid nature - you haven't said how this has occurred. Now, Vampires are canonically sterile, so it can't be a Skinwalker Daddy/Vampire Mommy. I'm not sure if Skinwalkers can pass along their infection via genetics, but they turn people the same way as Werewolves usually. So, you need to decide which specie he was first when he was infected the second time, or if he was just unlucky enough to be attacked by these creatures on the same night; while still staying alive throughout it - which will also need to be explained, because they generally don't leave people alive.
You haven't mentioned anything of his diet - can he eat and digest human food? Is he still technically alive and functioning? I can't understand why you've put Iron as a weakness, when it doesn't affect either of the species he belongs to. Does sunlight affect him? Does silver affect him? Does Dead Man's blood affect him? And why is it so damn hard to kill him? There's no way he'd be harder to defeat than a Leviathan, and for them, all you have to do is separate the head from the body and keep it away from said body. All it takes to kill a regular Vampire is beheading them (And fire, I guess?), and for Skinwalkers, it's sustained damage, and/or silver to the heart/head.
So, yeah. Sorry man - this is going to need a lot of tweaking.
Hardison just makes the show for me. That one time where he shows up late and everyone nearly dies in a plane crash because he was up all night playing video games... the guy is my spirit animal. I also hardcore ship him with Parker.
As for mixed species... eh... it would really depend on your sign-up. If you make it a really good character, and a really good mixed-specie, I'll have no reason to say no. If it's just an excuse to do the whole Underworld thing where it's the best of both species without any of the weaknesses, then I'll have to say no.
So, yeah, just shoot me a CS and I shall judge it most fairly! :D
