@The OneAs far as this mythos goes the term 'ghost' refers to the concept described in the ghost section above, spirit of a deceased person that appears as the deceased person in the clothes that they died in, that is generally only visible to those of a supernatural nature, and that can interact with the physical world with some concentration, and with greater focus exhibit some kind of mild telepathic ability.

It's not a very noticeable place. A small, terraced house in a fairly unassuming street. A small, rather unkempt garden sits at the back with an unruly hedge trying to clamber over the back fence. A rusted looking barbecue sits against the back wall, serving as home to a large puddle and several dead leaves. Inside the house is a kitchen, living room, and several upstairs rooms that have long been bare of much but some bed frames and some dusty boxes. Beyond that lies the attic, wreathed in spiderwebs and the nests of whatever urban wildlife managed to get in during the winter months.
23 Queen's Road was a rather unremarkable place to glance at. The only thing that might set this place apart would be the stories. Many of the tenants that had taken up the rental on it in recent years had left with claims of strange noises and ghostly apparitions. All nonsense, the letting agent hastened to tell those viewing. Things are about to change however, as some tenants are about to move in...tenants who can only be described as extraordinary.
A vampire, a werewolf, and a ghost.
This RP is inspired by the BBC series Being Human. You don't need to know about it, but you need to make an effort to stick to the the general idea of the series, which is that the supernatural creatures are trying their best to be ordinary people, rather than save the world or kill people or anything along those lines.
My current plan is to take up the role of the werewolf, who is female and in her late thirties, as well as said werewolf's seven year old son. The other housemates, that is, the vampire also wanting the place and the ghost who has been haunting the house for some years, are both up for grabs, and am open to suggestions regarding other potential roles, but need the housemates initially!

"Clearly you don;t know much about mage families huh." Dinah responded to Yoko's remark, rolling her eyes.
There was no telling some people, and she lacked the patience or the interest to attempt to explain it.
She then turned her attentions to Larke. He was, at least, relatively sociable, which made things easier...even if their conversation hadn't even really gotten past the pleasantries when he found he had something else to do.
"It's cool, Sterling. You don't have to talk to me if you don't want to." Dinah responded, sinking her hands into her pockets.
"Wouldn't have bothered even showing up if I had a thin skin about it."
Or, possibly in some way she did, as she was taking the fairly sincere attempt on his part as the young Sterling's way of trying to back away from the bloodline dumpster fire that was the Fox daughter without potentially offending her.
"I gotta go drop my bags anyway. If you do actually mean it about looking round, I'll probably be hanging round here in a bit, if not, nice taking to ya, no hard feelings."
She made her way out toward her room, shrugged her backpack off onto the bed, and closed the door.
She did, with any luck, have a little while before whoever her roommate was showed up, so she had a bit of a grace period to hide everything that was contraband before she was found.
Ventilation grille would work pretty well.

Full Name: Hari
Aliases:
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Rank: Trainee
Appearance (Human) :
Skills:
Witch Mutation/s (If Character is a Witch): Aside from when he's donning a large trapper hat, it's pretty easy to work out what Hari's mutation is. Out from his skull curl a pair of horns, like those of a ram, however they appear to be made of something jet black, and criss-crossed with jagged cracks and fissures. Despite the apparently fractured appearance of them, the horns have appeared to be extremely strong and resistant to damage.
When Hari becomes angry the fissures can be seen to glow, as if something deep inside them has become red hot. More alarmingly, the horns will sometimes drip boiling blood from the cracks, though it's yet unknown what triggers it.
Preferred Equipment: Whilst his mentor is more comfortable with firearms, it was quickly recognised that Hari's impressive level of strength and speed left him better suited for more close-quarter

@Cherrywitch I might go on a tagging spree in the interest check in hope of reminding people.
Darn, that's leaving a serious shortage of people.
@Cherrywitch Daww, looks great, approved! Workin' on mytrainee guy so she'll have a classmate soon!
Adopted Name: Unknown
Aliases: The Red Beast
Apparent Age: Early to Mid Thirties
Gender: Female
Classification: Class VI
Appearance (Human) : Red's human form resembles an adult woman, possibly somewhere in her thirties, quite tall and athletic-looking. She has wild, wavy ginger hair reaching halfway down her neck and a squarish jaw. Neither especially pretty-looking nor noticeably ugly.
She stands rather unusually tall, nearly six and a half foot high, something that makes her more than a little intimidating, even without the addition of her monstrous guise.
As with any Fragment, she possesses flaws. Aside from her unnatural height, she possesses scar-like fracture-marks across the skin on her arms and torso that look like fissures or cracks. These, in addition to her eyes, may begin to glow a red colour when she is angered or gearing up to fight. Possibly most unsettlingly, Red will cry tears of superheated blood.
Appearance (Monster): Red's Beast form is a large, hulking thing well suited to the name. Semi-bipedal but able to run on all-fours due to the grotesquely elongated forearms, the thing stands around ten foot high with a crooked posture. Its covered in a sort of wiry, matted fur that is interspersed with large, glowing cracks, cracks that emit a huge amount of heat and drip white-hot molten liquid onto the ground around the thing.
The head is elongated, almost canid-like, with two sets of sharp, very hard horns that are often used for butting and goring.
In addition to teeth, its jaw is serrated to create an additional set for biting.
Smoke and steam seem to perpetually rise from its body.
Skills: -Red is quite strong and has a great deal of endurance in her human form. In her monstrous form, even moreso. She has an impressive ability to keep fighting with damage that would have already killed most people.
- While her monster form is big, it is also surprisingly fast, able to run, jump, and chase down prey. A charge from The Red Beast is very hard to escape.
Special Ability: Combustion. Red can increase her body temperature to superheated levels, enough that she can cause most flammable material to combust at her touch. Additionally, Red is capable of unleashing a colossal wave of heat and force, like a small explosion, out in a wave in front of her, flattening obstacles and causing severe burns to those standing in the way.
Weaknesses: -Red is not the most tactical or strategic fighter. She pours all her effort into brute force and pure aggression, meaning that she is easily trapped or fooled.
- Red's blood is very hot, especially in monster form. Cold is potentially very hazardous to it. Cold water ingested by the creature will create bursts of steam that can blast holes in its body.
Other Fragments Consumed (If Known):
Around 5 as-yet unidentified Fragments around the time of the destruction of Saltmaw.
Persona: Red is infamous as a highly aggressive fragment with a burning hatred for Hounds. She is possessed by a burning resentment for the Wilde Jagd that seems to stem from her imprisonment, and has driven her actions up til that point, to the degree that that seems to subsume most everything else.
Known History: The Fragment known amongst Wilde Jagd as The Red Beast, or Red, was a major threat to hounds during the early days of the hunt.
An extremely physically strong and extremely aggressive manifestation, Red seemed to have some enormous degree of animosity towards the hounds, and would deliberately target them in her attacks.
During the destruction of Saltmaw she was known to have killed a large number of the guards and people present, before managing to escape to the mainland in human form. From there she left a considerable trail of destruction in her wake for two years. She killed hounds without a second thought, and seemed capable of absorbing massive amounts of damage. The continued harrying of all their patrols by this creature drove the organization almost to the edge.
That was until they gathered together some of their best and set out to trap the thing for good.
They were able to use Red's lack of foresight to its advantage and make use of its weakness, blasting a hole in the side of the Fragment before driving it back into a freezing river. From there they were able to catch it.
Since then, Red has been contained underneath Hunter's Court. Her hostility hasn't changed, but the researchers have worked out ways to turn the Fragment's colossal capacity for heat generation to their own advantage.
@ihinka sweet! I better get to work on my trainee and hound.
