Evelyn de Winter placed the last out of order book on its shelf, nodding with mute satisfaction. She enjoyed organization. The other two girls working with her had already completed their end of the work day tasks, coats being pulled on and buttoned. Evelyn followed suit, covering her white day dress with a muted grey coat, fitted to her figure although not as tightly as a corset. She had her hair down with the very ends curled in ringlets, unlike the other two women, one who had a lacy hat tucking away her hair and the other who had hers in a studious bun. Evelyn had tried making friends with them, but they were quite the gossipers, and she had no interest in that. So, she simply nodded to the two, going out first and letting them lock the shop. Evelyn thought it a little silly to close everything in town just about so early, but she wasn’t going to argue. That only led to more undead talk.

Ms. De Winter bid adieu to the others who nodded politely back, but probably continued a conversation of the odd, quiet woman with haunting blue eyes and porcelain skin, speaking of how they’d heard she had arranged the accident causing her husband’s death. Evelyn had not had these false, brazen rumors herself, too caught up in more important matters to her than idle chatter. Like her own thoughts. Now those entertained her much more than the fact Mrs. Reinhart was having an affair with Monsieur Kane behind her husband’s back. In her thoughts currently she was speculating if vampires were indeed real. It was quite a romantic concept really. Living forever. Maybe even with the one you love. For true eternity. Evelyn pondered the endlessness of it while her heels clicked the cobblestone streets, her mind high above the earth, in the clouds.

Her feet knew where to take her though. Where she went at twilight or later almost every day. The graveyard. Sure it was lonely in a way, and she was trying to stop, but sometimes it felt good to talk to someone. No one here had yet to really understand her, or try to even. Just like her feet were trained, so were her hands to push open the metal gating just enough to slip in, pulling her coat a bit tighter as she walked through the soft ground that made up this hallowed plot of land.

no, you can leave it like that, its true that if you cut one sense, the others get stronger and I can see my char helping the others, trying to be the leader of this group of messed up people (messed up due to what has happened to them of course XD), wonder how far he might be able to do so XDperhaps I might even make 2 chars, also a young female ^^


Okie dokie, sounds good! ^_^

would it not be a problem if she cant see?just wondering ^^well I can see how it could be interesting what the others need to help her get around, but I wonder how it is going to be with keeping her eyes closed all the time...The one thing I do wonder about is with her past, I know there are people that can see ghosts and such, so I guess its a normal supernatural ability and not a super power?


Yeah it wasn't a previous super power, just an ability or mental illness depending on your beliefs of whether or not the supernatural exists.

I imagine her other senses getting stronger (especially hearing) in order to get around and hoped others would help now and again, but I can edit and make it so it works in connection with her emotions (like, if she gets angry or overwhelmed it shoots out of her eyes but when she's calm she can see fine) that was my backup plan if being blind was going to be too much of a handicap for the plot :)

Color me interested. I was in a similar RP once, but maybe 2 posted escaping and no one else ever posted again so it never really got off the ground. Crossing fingers for this one to go longer!
Name: Evelyn de Winter

Species (vamp, human, thrall, or human hunter): Human

Bio: Evelyn was born in London. She was raised by a wealthy family who wanted only the best for their daughter. She went to private school, then finishing school, and then to a normal college where she planned on learning to be a school teacher. While there she fell in love with one of her professors, Marcus de Winter. He taught English and took an interest in Evelyn’s poetry, sweeping her off her feet with his own. She married him, not completing university. Her parents weren’t sorely disappointed though, considering she married a wealthy man who took good care of her. Soon they wanted to start a family though, and Evelyn was concerned about the state London was in and whether it was the best environment for a child. Marcus agreed and found a teaching position in a small school in Ipswich. They moved but during the move Marcus was run over by a carriage with a horse that went mad, running him down. Evelyn was heartbroken, unsure of what to do with herself. She was forced to make decisions though, decisions she thought she and Marcus had years to discuss. She had Marcus buried in the graveyard of Ipswich, going ahead and moving into a smaller home than they had picked out together in the village since she was by herself now. She still has a grand inheritance from his death, but she is not one to squander. She also needed something to do with her time besides mourn her love, and took a job in the local bookstore. There she encourages others to read and sometimes just sits outside with her husband’s favorite poetry book and reads. Many nights she will visit the graveyard at dusk or even at night, telling Marcus about her day. Her visits have gotten less frequent as she’s dealt with her grieving. When some of the friends she made at the bookstore found out about her evening visits to the graves they warned her about the vampires, but Evelyn doesn’t believe in such nonsense.

Personality: Evelyn is very proper. She is not a lady taken to encouraging the morally corrupt or extreme passions. She loves tea and a good book, a fireplace and a comfy chair. She often hums sad hymns to herself without noticing and rarely makes a grand expression like a full-fledged smile or horrible frown, more like smirks and nods, slightly furrowed brows and shaking her head. She is quieter but has never been pushed to the extreme by anything. The hardest thing she’s had to deal with was her husband’s passing, and that she dealt with like a lady as well, not throwing herself into depression but working through it and coming out stronger.

Appearance:





She stands 5’6” with a slight frame. She seems very delicate to others, though she has muscle and spirit to fight off any would be attackers.

Powers (vamps only, max of 2 other than the default super speed and super strength, and a rating 1-10):



Age: 24

Other: I don't care who changes her in the RP, just give me a heads up prior!
I vote for the kitty!
Female Rogue
Faris groaned when Venny told her the Mr. D guy who Erin had been babbling about not wanting to piss off was the god of wine. ”Well, just because he’s a drunk and the head of the camp doesn’t mean he has to be greedy right? I’m sure I could charm him out of something. I did it enough with my mom and her credit card, or guys and their cars before,” she shrugged, looking away from the cabin as Venny explained it was Athena’s. She nodded when he said Aphrodite’s kids were probably going to love a party, turning away from him to go find this, God of wine and not seeing Venny never even make it to Cabin 10.

Faris walked around and found a group of the newbies she’d been touring with earlier, grabbing one by their shirt collar so all of them paid attention. ”Hey, you guys want to come to a party tonight?” They tentatively nodded. ”Then invite everyone you think won’t shut it down, got it? And then free drinks on me for you. Tell them it's at the arena,” she smiled sweetly. The newbies kind of shrugged and went off to do Faris’ dirty work, while she quickly found the head of camp’s cabin. She hesitantly stepped up to the door, running her fingers through her long thick hair, adjusting her shorts and top before taking a deep breath and putting on innocent eyes and a cute smile. No one would guess her father was Ares with that expression. She knocked before taking a falsely meek step inside. “Mr. D?” she asked.
