@Ragnaroc,

I can live with eartbound angels^^ So Angels as a earth specie. Born on earth. That way the heaven part is removed and Angels become creatures like any other. With that I can live with.
And what would they do that makes hunters hunt them? Vamps drink blood, wherewolfs rip people in tiny pieces etc.
What do angels do? And are there differnt types Like with wherewolves?

Also my demons do not eat angels. Just so we are clear. (Well maybe one underspecie or another who do it as some sort of tradition or ritual, not to survive thoug because the demons are enemies to humans in this, not angels. At best they could be rivals or just have a huge dislike for eachother. Also There are many different demons sub species. They don't have 1 commen kind. They vary much, but most can be taken down the same way. My character will have them as her speciality. )


And one last thing about witches. Witches are to commen, to well known, in this type of fiction to not include them. But there are many ways one can portray a witch. There are like 100 different versions of witches. We could limit it to 4.
1 Humans who can use magic. They can be evil or good, but hunters usualy do not hunt those. The good witches deal with the evil ones so hunters barely have any contact with that.
2 Those creepy looking ones, who are after children. They are always evil and hunted. But can mask their ugly faces with magic and appear human.
3 (you can make something up As long as the witch is not human)
4 (same as 3 though I am fine with only the first 2 options but you might want your input of witches there as well)

If you guys really do not want witches, I can make witch number 2 a subspecie of demons who are nicknamed witches because they can use magic. But that would not feel real because Witches are so popular/huge part of this fandom. And if some form of angels can be a main specie when angels are rarely used in that fandom, It would not make sense for witches not to be there... It would be like leaving the vampire out..)

Shapeshifters would have different ones as well.
Level D The weaker ones who turn into only one kind of normal animal.
Level C The stronger ones who can turn in many different normal animals
Level B Can turn into animals and mix animal parts (Wolf with swan wings, Horse with lion claws etc.)
Level A Can turn into animals, mix their parts, and have one animal specie they can turn into a huge much stronger version. (Think twilight wolves, huge wolves) This of course could also be a bear or a mouse (if the shifter is unlucky xp)

But Are shapeshifters human? Or do they just look like humans the same way vampires do? Or are some human and some not? (I vote for option 3, like with wherewolves. If I understood correctly anyhow. There are human wherewolves and not so human wherewolves right?)

To make it believable our characters have a specie they are master in, they would have to fight that specie on a ragular basis.
As for running out of creatures: We will not. Because we all have a main specie to take down, and a bunch of main villains we will play as well, our characters would be very busy with their own specie and sometimes the species of others. We are more in danger of making to MUCH species then to few. If we have to many different species things will get messy because people will not be able to memorise all those species. I think that what we have to do now is only work out the main species. If we feel those main species are not enough during the rp we can always add new ones. Let's not start with to much to soon.

During the rp we can always come back here to discuss what new specie will make the next cameo appearence before we move on back to hunting our own species.



So we are now covering Wherewolves.

Maybe an idea is to make a creature book.
What I mean with that: We open another thread somewhere (don't know what would be the right place for that)
and post per post a specie with it's strenghts weaknesses forms, etc. (And if you find a smaller picture on internet that fits our discription we post that as well.)

If a new specie is added during the rp we can update the creature book and just post it there. This way, if we forget about something concerning a specie we can go to that thread and freshen up our memories by reading it, instead of having to look here between all the other comments.

An idea?

A question, So the hunters will not be from the same organisation? Or did I misunderstand? Do we have one organisation but that org has several schools and you carry the collors of the school you graduated from?

Hmm If that last part is the case I am not so sure. I think that once you graduate your all mature enough to know you have to take down evil creatures and what matters is that you all work together to make a safer world. It doesn't really matter what school you came from. And I can see the schools teaching basics about all species, and having a few master classes for those who are exceptional in a sertain specie, but I don't think there would be school for one specie, there simply being to much species. (And I like to dress my character in any way I want lol)

I just think that huntin is such a serieus matter, they couldn't care less about what collours they would wear. (Except maybe the ones who care a lot about how they look.)

You are so mean! I did say we should make a bestiary! Bet you didn't read that!! XDDDDD (JK no hard feelings!! XD)



Oh yeah, same question... Do we have same organization because I see there are different schools, like vampire hunter, werewolf hunter, etc.

But I think it's the same organization but different division, what do you guys think?

You did? How weird, I did read everything...... Maybe this is what happens when I try to read everything to fast to early in the morning with a headache... I really should go to sleep sooner lol

edit part:

Ok I felt so bad I reread everything you posted until I found it. And I did.




Sorry I overread it. !! Look at it this way. Your idea is a good one if others come up with it as well! Lol

Ugh, I have those morning headaches once! That day was not the best day all year! Better get your health sleep (not beauty) everyday! DX




Well, it does make me a feel happy! (I'm such a simple person... >///< )
But really, no worries! The posts were a lot yesterday! I'm not surprised or felt bad you missed one small detail! XD

A bestiary is a good plan.

I would rather not include witches at all. Like I said-- I'm a Wiccan, and witch-hunting would make me a bit uncomfortable. I don't think it would be the same as leaving vampires out; I've never seen witches having a big part in modern fantasy-- Which the 'monster hunter' genre is. Unless they're goodguys, like Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. However, if everyone else wants them, and they aren't human at all, I can probably deal with it.

The hunters would all be the same guild, but have separate divisions. Those divisions are what I meant by 'schools,' not an actual school. Each division would have an emblem and a set of colors. Some of the more extreme members might get tattoos of their emblem, or tally marks for each of their kills, but it's up to them, I would think.

Wearing the colors does not mean you have to dress a certain way. Ruinia suggested having costumes to protect our identities when we're hunting. Those costumes would be in the colors of your division. There would be a small brooch depicting the emblem of your division, but that's entirely optional.

Werewolves are humans, but they have a full-shift wolf form or a half-shift wolfman form. The half-shift is a result of keeping the wolf and human minds separate, and the human not letting the wolf take over during the change. The wolf form is a werewolf that is willing to be a wolf, and thus makes a smooth transition.

Me too, tbh I still don't see witches as monsters... DX Sorry guise... I would rather leave them out of the RP or like Alenaria said, as good guys (NPCs).



I still think combinations of dark royal colors is pretty good, they are concealable, therefore attracts less attention. So much for my expectations of pastel colored cloak. LOL.



So to wrap it up, we certainly agree on vampires and werewolves as monsters and they should be in the RP. But what about birdman (angel-like creatures without their virtue) and horned people (devil-like people without their evilness)?

@Amber

I have an idea for a reconstructed earthbound angel sort of creature that we will be hunting(I will explain why if this passes first). I can describe them in great detail but it will take a bit so I want to clear a few things first, just to make sure you approve. The creatures are descends of angels, like heavenly angel. Heavenly angels are currently urban myth only present the way people view angels today, possibly there but not about to pop up or get involved more or less a concept of thought for moments of despair(if this hurts anyone sorry), these things and what they become are a product of earth only. It only needs to be noted that there ancestors were angels, like real otherworldly angels at one point. We will never get in contact nor will angels from other world ever appear unless the admin says so. The creatures can become something closer to what we view an angel as but ultimately they aren't, they are earthbound and born try though they might to be something more....is okay? You want more information on them?

Witches. Does anyone know the anime Puella Madoka Magica? Here is another interpretation of a witch in a very good short anime.

Subbed(English subtitles, spoken in Japanses):http://zeroanime.net/puella-magi-madoka-magica-episode-1/

If you haven't seen it even if you aren't into anime or witches watch it.

Shifters

Why are they only turning into animals?

Book and Stuff

A compendium or bestiary sounds nice

I think we should have a central academy and then have branches and division, divisions divide the kind of profession branches are our sub locations

That post just got Rui's seal of approval! They were bird-like people but viewed just because they resembles 'angel'! What do you guys think? I am eager to hear more about this! OUO



Yep! I do, but I don't like that anime! It's too cutesy! XD



Hmm... I think it's much more common for shifters to turn to animals than the one turns into humans. I have no explanation on this, but I'm kind of against shifter changing into another human or something else other than animals.

Probably we should just stick to werewolves for a specific shifter in this RP. OuO



Ah... this is nice idea too, we have something like an HQ and then a place for each divisions on different locations.

I am ok with this version of angels. And can live with their background.

I have seen that anime, but those witches might be to strong for this rp because you have to basicly jump into their relm to defeat them.

Shifters into animals just seems best, otherwise they get to much shifting options. Though I don't mind having the strongest shifters being able to shift into other people, I think it would make their ablities to evolved compared to other species...maybe.
And I think shifters should be human. The shifters that abuse their shifting power and go evil and hurt people with it are allowed to be hunted down because they don't play by the human rules, but the monster rules, ergo they can be taken down by monster hunters. Shifters that are evil will be taken down when in shifted form.


Wherwolfs are not shifters. Shifters can shift at will. Wherewolves can not. They do not turn in normal wolves but in a stronger (uglyer) mutation mix that goes berserk in the full moon (and those that control it do not go berserk unless they like going berserk lol). If they where to turn into normal wolves they would be not so hard to defeat. Shifter are always human in mind, and never lose control, but they are usualy weaker then wherewolves. When they change into an animal they take over their strengths and weaknesses. Lets say they turn onto a mouse, they can die by a mouse trap or an owl or a Cat if they aren't carefull.
Exceptions would be Level A. They would be about the same strenght as wherewolves during full moon. (Depending on what they have shifted into that is.)


And then Vampires: What kind of vampires do we have? Or do we have more kinds of those as well?
