Ragnaroc, I called dubs on playing the shapeshifter bad guy, my character however will not be a shapeshifter specialist. I do not wan't to play my own characters villain. Somebody else would play the shapshifter specialist.

Also, I vote no for Angels sorry. Angels are not monsters. Like I said earlyer, there would be a list of main type of monsters. Other monsters can also appear but they will not be a main specie. I can't see angels happening because they are usualy not evil. No of course there can be the rare stray/fallen one, but that would be more of an exception than a whole specie.
Aliëns also big no. Aliëns are from other worlds. That would make this rp to big, same with angels really, who are messagers of god. I prefer to keep other planets and gods (or creatures connected to gods) out of this. With demons I do not mean those from hell btw. I just mean monsters who have different collours, scales, tales, horns etc. (Think Buffy the vampire slayer type of demons)
I also vote no for Fea. When googeling those I find fairys and other friendly fantasy type creatures, Those are not monsters. I am fine with them excisting. A world with bad monsters should also have a few good other creatures. But not as a main villain specie we hunt down. A stray gone evil Fea as an exception sure, but I can't see this working otherwise.

As for the zombie thing, if you have evolved clever zombies they would not be very different from vampires except they eat people instead of drinking blood, they can stand sunlight but are more fragile than vampires are. And unlike vampires, they do not have that super speed.

Also all hunters can hunt all species, it's just that they have 1 they are better at then others.

For main species I am sticking to what we know in monster world: Vampires, Wherewolves (those in control and that are more feral and those who are more human but lose all control during the moon, Zombies (mummies are in fact zombies too) and you can have the clever evolved ones and the not so clever stereo type ones, Shapeshifters, Witches, Demons and all other less known species can still show up, they just will not have the biggest populations, like banshees, slime monsters, ghosts (could be a main one seeing they are also popular), and anything monster like you can think off.


And my hunter Era will have demons as speciality if people dont mind.

So my main bad guy: Shapeshifter (strongest shapeshifter)
My secondary badguy: Witch (second strongest witch/ not the strongest)
My main hunter: hunts demons (the expert)
My secondary hunter: hunts wherewolves (there is one hunter who is better than he is in wherewolves, and that would be the person that want's to play the character that has wherewolves as it's main specie)

As for wherewolves: I think there should be 2 types: 1 half wolf half man almost all the time, and in full moon they become more wolf, but still keep their human/wolf mix monster look. 2 Full human all the time with the exception of full moon and the day before and after, with full moon also a human/wolf monster mix but those that are full human usualy do not control their wherewolf part while those who are half wolf half human all the time do. The half wolf half human ones should have advanced strength even when not in full moon.
The wherewolves should not be able to transform at will, only at full moon and the day before and the day after. Otherwise they become like shapeshifter and that takes the strenght of the shifters away. So wherewolves depend on the moon. But during the moon they are one of the strongest species out there.

@ Ruinia

Okay I get what you are saying, I can groove with that. I think it should be possible for non creatures to tap into that primal part and judge that we have probably killed most if not all of the ferals but I am fine with what you stated.

@ Amber

Fairies are very very dangerous there are lighter kinds (true pixies tend to be playful but non lethal)of fae but a good deal of them are here to steal you children and or eat you, Kelpies and merfolk as an example. They will all die with iron but if someone were to undertake them they would need to learn a lot of different combat styles because obviously you will not fight a troll and a mermaid the same way.

As for angels. God does not rules the angel society I have built for this rp and I have no intention of hunting good angels(unless the below stamen applies and then it's self-defense). I agree gods are much to large a concept for one person to deal with, there maybe mentions of god(s) but one does not rules the Heaven I have built, I wanted to veer away from offending religious people so I completely rewrote the system. My character on rare occasion may come in contact or be given a mission to deal with a fallen angels. That is not why he has chosen this rather odd profession. He has decided that inevitably angels will decide people have destroyed this world and rain down arch angels to kill us all and restart the planet, essential he wants to win Armageddon. This sounds a bit crazy yes he knows he can't fight them all he still believes that at least one person should try. This will also make WORLDS more sense when you figure out were he is getting his information from. I believe that even though Fallen Angels are minor that our academy would have a course for specializing in angels because we are a rather large organization why wouldn't we have a course for all kind of creatures we have been operating for centuries. Fallen angels are generally evil, few people take the course but if you want to well they only need one or two angel hunters he's probably the only on in dispatch and he's taking the course for personal reasons not because he expects to be raking in the fallen angel kills. But that doesn't change the fact that the organization would probably offer an angel course and we would take it. Also if he can specialize in a rarely found creature it means he can be or medic/repair/pack mule/ whatever we need. That back up support with repairs character that was mentioned before.

As for werewolves I believe there should be four species or variations.

Half-Shift Uncontrolled: Takes on a man wolf hybrid must shift at full moon may or may not be human before then cannot remember or control themselves during shift.

Half-Shift Controlled: Takes on a man human hybrid form can remember and control themselves during wolftime.

Full Shift Uncontrolled: Takes on a full wolf transformation must shift at full moon(full moon includes the days before and after) cannot control or remember the events of wolftime.

Full-shift controlled: Takes on full shift at full moon and can remember and control self-during this time.

I advise ether we allow the controlled races to transform at will or if we find allies in werewolves; have a business arrangements ect. it be will the Half-Shifted Controlled because we kind of need to talk to them and it would be problematic if we need there help and we can't. Al be it disturbing wolftime would probably be a very bad thing but it would cause drama if we had an emergency that required it.

I do not believe that giving them shifting at will at will determines shifters because true shifters can literally become anything anytime which is a that massive feat compared to everything else's powers.

Note: Forgot to mention above.

I have no intention of every launching Armageddon! If the admin wants to use the heaven I have constructed I'm great with that(and there will be a proper set of rules posted presuming I'm allowed to do this) but I myself have no intention as ever introducinging it as a major thing, it's just there, maybe mentioned but never will I actively engage it useless requested for some reason. It's exists is just kind of essential to my characters, but that's all I need it for, background and reference.

Just wanted to make that clear. ^_^

Like I said, I'm cool with a non-religious take on angels and demons, with the two being closer to bird-people and dragon-people. I'm not sure how angels, usually portrayed as the Ultimate Good, are going to be worked into this. So I don't see them having a big part.

I would prefer a full-shift wolf body werewolf, but that's just what I'll stick to if people want to do the half-wolf form. I don't see either talking, as words are even less likely to be formed with that mangled muzzle, but thumbs are a plus, I'll admit.

I'd vote no for witches, they are not monster by nature, I see them as a person with magical abilities. I thought we did agree no magic ability from the beginning, well unless I understand that wrong or we want to change that. XD

I hope no one forgets that we are fighting monsters and mutants (I call them mutants because they are genetically different from normal people but their sanity are still intact) that kills other people or mutants. So it doesn't matter if they look like a fairy but as long as they don't kill other people, we do not hunt them.

That is also the reason why I suggested feral types for werewolves and vampires, because not all mutants and monsters had savage instinct, some just had a physical mutation.

When I say witches I don't mean humans with magical abilities.

I mean evil creatures who use magic or manipulate their surroundings. (Ever seen the movie The witches? Yeah they look like this:
If that ain't monster looking I don't know what is... lol Also almost every monster type tv show I have seen had witches, good and evil ones. The evil ones would look like this picture, Of course they can hide that appearence. And teh good ones would look like normal people but they are in fact a different race.

And I still vote no for Angels or Fea as a main specie. I am fine with them being there for an occasional hunt, but not as main, they just aren't monster enough or known enough, when you watch monster hunting type shows or movies you rarely if ever see them. So should they be in the RP? Sure why not, we do not only hunt main species. But should they be one of the main ones? No
If there is anything angel, they aren't angels just demons who look like humans with wings, or shapeshifters who only make wings or witches who made them appear by magic. And peopel confuse them for angels because of the wings. But even in these cases they would be exceptions, not rules.

OR, there is one specie with wings that I could live with as a main specie. Harpies. They could be confused for angels . But they are evil creatures most of the time. They could work a little like vamps. They can conceal their claws and wings like vamps can their teeth. And like with any specie they have clever hunters and those who just attack people not bothering to lure or trick them. And because peopel mistake them for angels they use that to their adventage, not only to attack humans, but to trick humans into doing thing for them, claiming it is gods will, etc.

And again demons are not the opposide of angels in this. Demons is just a collecter name for those creatures with horns, different skine tones (red,green,blue) who have skales or huge tongs, more then 2 arms etc. Again think Buffy the vampire slayer type demons. They really have nothing to do with heaven/hell struggles and stuff.

Angels and Demons in the form of hell demons should not be in this rp. They could however be the center of another rp. An rp about heaven/hell angels/demons/ gods dynamics etc. But for monster hunting they just don't fit.

As for wherewolves. I had those 4 in mind and even a few more, but I changed it to 2 on purpose. It becomes to big otherwise if you have to check which of the 4 (and in all truth there would be even more then 4 types) your dealing with. This makes things a bit simpler. We have the humand who can not control it and those who can. The humans who can not control it are those who are normal human usualy and they really aren't evil, they just can't control that part of themselves and so the hunters do not kill those, but knock them out with sleeping darts or something. (Think Remus Lupin from Harry potter)
And then we have those half wolf types who do control it, and shift and then harm people fully aware that they do. Those are the evil ones we need to take down. It is ok for there to be more types, but I think these 2 are the ones to focus on. Because otherwise the wherewolf world becomes a tad to big. And those halfwolf/halfhuman ones also have a lot of strength even when there is no full moon. (Think Fenrir Grayback of Harry potter.)

There are plenty good looking witches! Heck, in Harry Potter female wizards are called witches! Bewitched TV series and the movie had lots pretty witches too! XDDDD
That's the reason why I did not see them as monsters, but if you put it that way, I guess you can call them monsters.

But honestly, the thread has been going on and on about monster types! I'm going to wait for awhile for the boss (Alenaria) to come up with something!

On another note, Rag I did not recieve your ping. I think for a ping to work you have to place it in the top row of your post, just adding an @ infront of the name doesn't seem to work. (At least not wit me, I only recieve the pings that where placed at the top...)

Yes there are a lot of pretty witches in fiction world
But for monster hunting It would feel wrong to kill people even if they have magic or inhuman abilities. Of course these witches can exist as well, but not as the kind we would hunt down. Those monster type creepy ugly witches, those are good hunting material lol Also they go after kids. Double creepy. We have to protect kids from those things!!!! (Is Charging creepy witch)

Oh yeah here is an example of an Harpy male that could be confused for an angel.



They would be able to hide their claws (and horns if they have them) and only show their wings. People would believe them to be angels, and do things for them not knowing or believing they are doing something evil instead, having faith in their angels... How cruel!!
(Charges mean tricking Harpy!)
