Welcome to Rousseau's Academy for Vampire Hunters.

Plot/setting: In a modern day city, in a renovated old monastery, is Rousseau's Academy for Vampire Hunters. Children from all over the country come to the Academy to learn how to hunt the supernatural. From 13 onwards they train with weapons, magic and other things-including claws and fangs.

During the day they study hard, train and enjoy the city--it's during the night that they go out seeking the supernatural, practicing the skills they learn by day.

You are one of these children attending the Academy. Like all things, there are good and bad. Conflict has been escalating between the Academy and Declan's coven.

(Working)

Name: Roya Markham (Real name: Ligia Lanheim)

Age: Looks 25 in human years, but body's age is 247 years. (Soul age: 3041 years)

Gender: Female

Race: Vampire

Skills: Weapons

Magical or Non-magical: Magical, because she can reincarnate.

Appearance: (Describe your characters in words if possible, and No Anime or Scene pictures)

Personality: Roya has two personalities; one is the dominant Ligia, who is usually on most of the time and is the personality that 'took over', and Roya, who is the 'original' personality of the body. Ligia is calm, deceptive and very underhanded. She prefers talking around things to tackling them head on, but she will attack if aggravated. Roya is a kind girl with anger issues that often emerge when she regains control of her body.

Likes/Dislikes: Ligia likes blood. Lots of it. She also likes roses, novels and playing around with peoples' minds. However, she hates kids to a fault, and will often crack down on students too harshly for a minor problem. Roya likes being free and will do anything to maintain her body's control, even threaten to cut off her arm if Ligia tries to emerge.

Flaw/s: As said before, there are two personalities in one body. Often, they fight for dominance at inconvenient times, leaving the body open to attacks and what not.

History: Ligia Lanheim was born over 3000 years ago in the poorest family of a small village located in Old Germany. The baby of the family, Ligia was cherished by her family - until the night they were attacked by a bloodthirsty vampire. With all her family dead and herself infected, Ligia stopped the pain of the transformation by forgetting her human side, and has been a vampire wholly ever since. Given the power to reincarnate until her soul was destroyed, Ligia has gone through centuries doing whatever she wanted and getting killed over and over again, until she reached Roya's body. Content with what she had done so far, she possessed the newborn Roya, surpressed her original soul, took control of the body, and has been in it ever since. She is now currently the weapons combat teacher in Rousseau's Academy.

Up for love? Er, probably.

Other: (for anything we haven't mentioned, like pets, weapons, etc)

Place claimer.

Edit: Profiles.

Dhampir:

Name: Amber Sullivan.

Age: Looks 17, actual age is around 107.

Gender: Female.

Race: Dhampir.

Skills: Weapons/combat and survival (of the vampire kind), vampiric abilities, knowledge of historic hunter/vampire events for the last hundred years or more and knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses of several supernatural creatures.

Magical or Non-magical: Non-Magical, unless you count vampiric abilities.

Appearance: Amber is tall, around 5'7 with long, dark brown hair and sky blue eyes. Her skin is pale-ish and she's deceptively skinny. She's lean and strong, even though she doesn't look it. Tends to wear earthy/darker colours and always has sunglasses on hand. Also never seen without her necklace; she's been collecting the pendants since she was seventeen.


Personality: Amber appears the sweet, kind and innocent girl, but she's really fierce with a fiery temper and much older than she looks. Although her temper has a shot fuse, she doesn't lose it often....unless you mention, well, the enemy...or vampires... Or werewolves. She really doesn't not like either one. She's also incredible loyal to those she likes, especially her friends. She highly dislike seeing anyone she likes and/or cares for hurt and will do pretty much anything in her power to help them.

Amber can be deceptive and maniplutive, but very loyal and trustworthy. She tends to terrorize the enemey with her vampiric side, and though her eyes are blue, they turn red or almost black when she's angry, upset, vamping out or using her vampiric powers. It's enough to scare people sometimes, which is why she often wears sunglasses to hide her eyes. She is currently under Declan's 'protection', despite what he's done to torment her in the past.

Likes/Dislikes: Highly dislikes anyone trying to kill her (in other words, the enemy), vampires, the cold and too much water, sun or fire. Her strengthes are in her vampire side and powers, for obvious reasons. She can defend herself without relying on her abilities and likes anything with claws (aka, cats), warm places, warm things and her friends.

Flaw/s: Doesn't trust vampires or werewolves at all. Has a habit of correcting the Study teacher during classes. Sometimes forgets that she probably shouldn't be carrying a sword around--or a knife or dagger. Can over reaction to insults thrown her way. And though she likes Declan, doesn't trust him nor Adrian and Isidor--those two locked her up in a cellar when she was in her twenties (She still hasn't forgiven them for that--she had to eat rats, and she didn't like it).

History: Amber was born somewhere in Europe in 1904 to a vampire and his human lover. She grew up being used as a 'toy' or 'pet' and being feed from by every vampire within a hundred mile radius of her father's mansion--with his blessings of all things. It sickened her when she was old enough to understand and realize that what she was going through was not what she wanted. By this time, she was about seventeen.

Since she disliked her current lifestyle, she ran away, skipping town and the country, travelling to Italy, where she met Isidor and Adrian during the 1920s; the pair locked her up in a wine cellar for over a week. While in the cellar, she found her cat and somehow ended up turning it--she still has no idea how that happened. When she escaped the cellar, she took the cat, which she named Pandora, and stowed away on a ship, fleeing across the ocean to America. She spent the next seventy or so years travelling around the country, where she met many strange characters, vampires, faerie and werewolf alike.

Eventually, she settled down in New York and met Declan. She has been under his 'protection' since the 1990s, after ten or so years of torment. She met Isidor and Adrian again in New York, where they had 'settled down' with Declan and his coven. Seeing the pair was quite a shock. Today, she helps the Study teacher with her class and participates in Combat classes to keep up her 'training' at Rousseau's. She also tries to avoid Declan as much as possible, despite his so-called lessons in Vampiric abilities.

Up for love? Yes, both.

Other: Currently the Teacher's Assistant for Study classes and participating in Combat classes to keep up her 'training'. Currently taking lessons from Declan so she can harness her vampiric side--she's been suppressing it for years.

Has a pet cat called Pandora;

Weapons; she has an array of weapons, but is more talented with her sword and a dagger or knife than anything else. Almost always carries a silver knife or dagger with her.

Sword;


Knife/dagger;

Werewolf:

Name: Alec West.

Age: Looks about 18-ish, but his real age is close to 200.

Gender: Male.

Race: Werewolf.

Skills: Since his father was a mage, Alec has some latent magical ability, which he has yet to tap into. Combat skills--with weapons or claws and fangs; he's not Lance's second for no reason.

Magical or Non-magical: Magical; father was a mage.

Appearance: Alec is tall, about 6' with dark brown hair and dark brown, almost black eyes. His skin is lightly tanned and he's slim yet well muscled and stronger than he looks. He is often seen wearing a grey leather jacket and prefers to fade into the background, which is a handy tool for a werewolf, but has a reputation for being the 'Bad Boy' at Rousseau's Academy--a reputation he hates, but doesn't discourage. He has a natural grace that seems almost inhuman (which it obviously is) and likes to toy with people.

Personality: Alec, as he prefers to be known, seems like one of those nice jerks with a nasty side hidden deep within. He likes to pretend to be nice and sweet at first but then turns on you once he has your trust, or so you think. While on the grounds of Rousseau's Academy, he often shows the students and teachers a playful but nice little 'boy'. He loves being a hero and saving people, but hates having to pretend to be even sort of mean when he's really nice.

He has a tendency to manipulation people and overuse his so-called skills on occasion. He 'likes' pain and destruction, but only when directed at the enemy, and wants to see vampires--the very things that ruined his father--gone for good. He likes to toy with others, yet he knows that it isn't exactly a 'nice' or 'good' thing. Tends to end up in a lot of trouble at Rousseau's because of his really short temper--a temper he loses often.

As part of Lance's pack, he takes orders very seriously--but only those from Lance, his Alpha. Currently, his alpha has him acting like a real jerk. He's not sure why, but he has his suspicions--not that he'd ever tell Lance that. But it's true; he does normally act like a jerk, yet underneath it all, he's actually kind and caring, loving, full of kind smiles and extremely loyal. He's Lance's Second, but he doesn't let people know that. He prefers to act as his alpha's little errand boy--an enforcer, violent and fierce. Of course, he doesn't always like it, but he is very talented in a fight.

Likes/Dislikes: Likes women, the day, the sun, the night, the moon, hunting, playing games, putting on different masks/acts, dancing and acting as Lance's Second. He likes to direct all his anger at what happened to his father into a fight, usually when it's against the enemy, but sometimes not. Dislikes anything to do with vampires, too much violence, drama queens, harming or killing innocents (they really don't deserve that), feeling unable to do anything and feeling lost.

Flaw/s: Short temper, hates to pretend to be 'bad' or 'mean'. Recently starting getting 'nastier' in everything he does and doesn't think he can keep it up much longer. (Why did Lance even bother to ask him to did so?) He's not always inclined to give mercy when it's pleaded for.

History: Alec was born in London (England) on April 14th, 1793 to an infamous Lord who was also a mage and his wife. His childhood was fairly normal--for a Londoner and a mage's son, if you could ignore all the unusual characters that visited. His father was always busy, his mother quiet and composed, and never seeming to pay him much attention. Despite this, he still managed to get into trouble and angered both his parents.

Two weeks after his 18th birthday, a pack of werewolves attacked his home. His was upstairs when the Alpha came in, talking about something to do with his father cheating him out of something. Alec listened to their conversation for a long time. What he heard made him rethink the whole Mage thing. He didn't want that--apparently his father's magic, his lifestyle was eating him....or so the werewolves said. Then he heard the sounds of fighting--growling and snarling, his father's voice and things breaking.

By the time he got downstairs, his parents were dead and at least two of the werewolves were as well. But the Alpha was alive and furious. He mauled Alec badly, bit him several times and then dragged him away from the house. For fifty years, Alec was forced to stay with the pack, until eventually another werewolf killed the Alpha--Lance. He took Alec under his wing and killed most of the pack for disloyalty. Then he moved the remnants of the pack to America, and New York. Lance made peace with Declan and the head of Rousseau's Academy and then set up his pack's headquarters in Queens, claiming everything North of the Academy and east of Declan's Territory as his own. With this move, Lance made Alec his second.

Over the next hundred and fifty years, the pair set to work on solidifying their territory and cleaning it of vampires. And making a name for themselves. Between Lance and Alec, they own several clubs, several warehouses and a large chunk of housing in and around Queens. Lance also suggested to the Headmistress of Rousseau's at the time to let him teach there. Alec and Lance have been teaching or learning at the Academy ever since.

Today, the pair take the students out hunting at night whenever that can and try to avoid Declan's vampires.

Up for love? Yes, straight.

Other: A collection of 'applewood' stakes. Apparently vamps can't handle the forbidden fruit. Alec's tests so far have failed, ending with him missing the staking and ending up killing the vampire the old fashioned way--with claws and fangs.

Name: Ellie Moore

Age: 120 (Only looks about 17-18)

Gender: Female

Race: Vampire

Skills:

Magical or Non-magical: Non-magical

Appearance:

Personality: Ellie is rather quiet and reserved. She's always on task and works best alone. She's not much of a social butterfly. In fact she's quiet the opposite, socially awkward. She never really knows what to say.

She's a wanderer, and it's hard to keep track of her. One moment she could be right beside you and the next she's already fifty feet away. Some people call her a ghost because of this particular skill.

Her self control is excellent, and it's been ten years since she's killed one of her victems. There is the occational slip-up where she drains someone more then she means to, but she always manages to pull away before she kills them.

Likes/Dislikes: She likes the night, light rain, quiet and focus. She doesn't like loud people, beaches, the sun, heat or getting headaches.

Flaw/s: Easily manipulated, can't swim, not as strong physcially as other Vampires, take your pick.

History: She doesn't remember her human life. If she did she would know that her parents died trying to protect her. Unfortunatly, they were no match for a coven of vampires. Luckily for Ellie, one of the vampires took a particular interest in her. Perhaps it was her pure will power. Even though odds were against her she fought back.

The vampire drained her and filled her with his own blood. The change was slow and painful, but Ellie survived it. As soon as she woke up in her newborn state she knew she didn't belong there. She panicked and attacked the vampire who changed her, she didn't manage to kill him but she did manage to knock him unconcious long enough for her to escape.

For the first few years of her undead life, Ellie just savagly attacked whoever could satisfy her thirst. But everyone's guilty concious catches up with them eventually. She felt horrible for killing innocent people, and for the longest time starved herself.

She slowly trained herself to control her blood lust, and many years later found herself capable of doing so. She's never really been part of a coven, or socialized with other Vampires.

Up for love: Sure

Other:

Name: Seth Hamilton

Age: 512 looks to be 17

Gender: Male

Race: Half Elf

Skills: Is a empath that can see peoples emotions through the aura that surronds them. Through touch he can highten his reading abilty by absorbing this aura, allowing him to both feel the emotion and get a small portion of the persons thoughts attached to the emotion. He has mastered changing his own aura so to better use his second abilty which is the inverse of the first. He can push his aura onto others allowing them to feel his emotions and thoughts. If he does it right he can make them believe that it was their own emotions and thoughts. This is a sublte case of mind controle.He has been told by his father; who is full elf, that if he truly masters it he can do all this without touch but even in his old age he has not mastered it. His main method of using this ability is through a kiss. Needless to say he mainly uses it to get closer to people he finds to be interesting .

Magical or Non-magical: Magical.

Appearance:

Seth stands at 6 ft and has a lean toned body with zero body fat, thanks to his picky eating and constant exercise. He has evenly toned skin color with a few freckles. His brown hair falls around his face and he has bright green eyes. He prides himself on having a symetrical face. His ears are slightly pointed.



Personality: Seth loves beauty in all of its forms. Nature fascinates him as does beautiful people. He thinks that no one should be restricted to only one relationship, so he likes to sample around. This makes him very flirtatious and even if not flirting he is sizing up a peoples beauty. Because of his attention to detail he likes things organized and finds symmetry and patterns to be preferable to disorder. He likes to take these traits to draw and paint.

Seth is also very arrogant, he considers himself to be perfect in his looks and cannot be told otherwise. Those that disagree with him, he suspects are just jealous. This arrogance does not connect to his art since he rarely shows anybody his work. This is one of the few areas in which he has low opinions about himself.

Despite his rather abrasive personality he suffers the delusion that everyone likes him. Someone not liking him is a concept he does not understand. He also has the odd habit of mentally making any imperfection he may gain into a vain positive. For instance, If he gets cut and gets a scar, he will simply say it makes him look “dangerous and hot.” Such delusions of grandeur are common for him. Due to his magical ability he has learned to contole his overall emotions by manipulating his own aura. Because of this he rarely gets angry or sad. He has even put a stop to true feeling of affection for people.


Likes/Dislikes:

Likes: Working out, eating healthy, drawing, beautiful people, anything beautiful, nautre, animals.

Dislikes: Ugly people, curse words, junk food, mess, inclosed places, negative people.

Flaw/s: Manipulative and arrogant

History: Seth is not immortal as regular elf are, but he is still long lived. His father was a elf and his mother a human. His father was a a king amongst his people and often took on human brides for short periods of time. The kings wife and queen became jealous and had Seth's mother killed. She then tried to kill Seth as a baby, but he attempts failed. Over the years she has tried several times.

Seth married a young woman named Cassandra in the 1679. They had two children and lived a happy life. The Queen of course found his existence to be an abomination and hired a group of vampires to hurt him. His youngest daughter was turned into a vampire. Children vampires are considered dangerous due to the lack of brain development making them more prone to simply giving into their instincts. Seth was forced to kill his own daughter. His wife could not forgive him and left with his older son. Seth kept a eye on them and watched them age until soon they died. He found other loves over the years, but one by one they died from old age as he forever stayed young.

Tired of it he returned to the the elves where his father had apparently lost power and now the Queen ruled. Upon entrance she had him locked away in the dungeons. He stayed there for 40 years. The young elf he met that brought him food would sit and talk to her and he fell in love with her. Being as that she was a elf he could see a long life with her. The girl cared for Seth too and tried to break him out. The Queen found out and punished her. She was pelted with large chunks of silver, while Seth was forced to watch. He was thrown back into the dungeon and stayed there for another 60 years. His father came into his cell one day and Seth looked on with surprised as he had figured his father to bed dead. His father told him that everything up to this point had been a test to make him stronger. The elf king told him that one day he would like Seth to take over the kingdom and he had to harden the boys heart first. Seth agreed to sit by his fathers side for many years and eventually had him and the Queen killed. When he was about to be hailed as the new king he broke the crown and said that the kingdom was disbanded.

He left and has traveled the world since. It was about 1924 that he discovered his daughter was still alive as a vampire. He vowed to kill her and joined Rousseau's Academy. He like Amber is a Student Assistant. In his long life he has run into Declan several times before entering the Academy.


Up for love? Yes. If the person is beautiful in his eyes he does not care what gender.

Other:
His real name is not Seth and his last name is not Hamilton. They are simply names he picked up that he found to be trendy for to 21st century. He has often changed his name to keep up with the times, or simply when he gets bored of it.

Name: Elijah Derso

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Race: Mage of the City (Neon Avenger)

Skills: Born with the unnatural ability to talk to Spirits of the City, Can manipulate the "energy" of cities into spells (Bringing Graffiti to life, throwing the force of a car in a single hand gesture, control over electricity, etc)

Magical or Non-magical: Magical

Appearance: Elijah is on the shorter side of the height spectrum, though it's only noticeable when your'e standing close to him. His eyes are his strangest quality, as they glow with a neon orange color. His hair is raven-black, with several bright red streaks in it. His skin is deathly pale, and on more than one occasion he has been mistaken for a vampire.

Personality: Elijah was more of the shy kid, lingering on the fringes of conversation, always a wisp of a presence showing only the side of his face and saying only barely legible murmurs. He doesn't tend to avoid people, just not interact with them as much. He generally just is there, and leaves it up to the other person to view it as awkward or comfortable. He detests selfishness and false charity, and strives to be free of manipulation. He fights it with a defiant silence, sort of testing people; do they subscribe him to a label or do they try to get to know him first?

Strengths: Strong connection with the City Spirits, strong sense of self

Weaknesses: Is deathly allergic to pollen, bees and grass, not many people bother to notice him

Likes: The City Spirits, silence

Dislikes: The Outdoors, people who judge others

Flaws: Is virtually powerless outside of the city, is allergic to bees, pollen and grass, sort of asocial

History: Elijah was born to a single father, as his mother died in child birth. His father worked part-time jobs, and for a great deal of his life Elijah lived on the streets. He was the dirty child on the curb you tried to avoid eye-contact with. If poverty wasn't tragic enough, he began to see things. A shopping cart filled with broken mirrors, being pushed by a lady with two faces. A stone gargoyle yawning and scratching his back. A bronze statue hopping of a pedestal and taking a whizz in the bushes.

When Elijah was 15 he finally approached one of the anomalies, (the lady with the cart) and demanded an explantation. The cart lady revealed herself as a City Spirit (The spirit of What if? she was called Kendra) and told Elijah that his rare gift qualified him to become the next Mage of the City.

After several weeks of fumbling through his new found power, Kendra dubbed him the "Neon Avenger" due to his weird eyes. The same day, a clan of vampires viciously murdered his father, and despite his best efforts Elijah wasn't able to save him. Since that day, Elijah has had a grudge against the blood-suckers, and for a year tracked them though the city.

His magical talent and his hate for the species qualified him for a position at the Academy, which he accepted. He has been with them for almost a year.

Up for love? If you can get to him, Yes. Heterosexual

Other: The City Spirits who help him are:

Kendra: Spirit of Questioning Choices (What If?) Looks like an old lady with two faces.

Robb: Spirit of Failed Drummers (Bad Beat) Looks like a stone gargoyle with a chipped mohawk

Finn: Spirit of Addicted Gamers (Computer Geek) Looks like a fat face and appears only in electrical items (iPod, Laptop, TV)

Name: Katie Blue

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Skills: Weapons

Magical or Non-magical: Non-magical

Appearance: Katie stands at exactly six feet and one inch. She is of average weight, but due to her height, she appears thin. Her skin is rather pale, but not in a bad way. She has full, naturally red lips and rosy cheeks. She has jet black hair that curls in tight little ringlets, which go just passed her shoulder blades. She has big, bright blue eyes that are framed by thick black lashes. She also has a faded scar of teeth marks on the right side of her neck.

Personality: Katie is a girl who usually has a big smile on her face, no matter what the circumstance. She often tends to just say nothing and watch everything around her so she can learn. Katie is a pyro and it physically pains her to tell a lie. She takes pleasure in fighting and will never back down from one - she goes by a rule of always smiling while fighting, even when hurt, because it freaks the opponent out.

Likes/Dislikes: Likes: girls, guys, good vampires, drawing, art, swords, sharp objects, fire, fighting
Dislikes: Lying, being defenseless, having to back away from a fight, bad vampires

Flaw/s: She's kind of spacey - as in she'll get a glazed look in her eyes and she won't hear or see anything until someone either yells, shakes her, or she just snaps out of it. She also doesn't lie - more like can't.

History: Katie is an only child of the extremely wealthy and high class Mr. and Mrs. Blue. She was raised being taught to only speak when spoken to, to never bother Mommy and Daddy and to go her Nanny instead, and she was also taught that there was only one right way of life - including being straight. At the age of eight, Katie's Nanny had to leave due to the fact that her daughter got into a car accident and she had to take care of her and be around her more. Once Nanny took her leave, Mr. and Mrs. Blue decided to just let Katie do her own thing, because she was "old enough to take care of herself"

Time passed and Katie occupied herself with the "fantasy" world of vampires, werewolves, elves, etc. Katie full-heartedly believed that these creatures were real and, on occasion, even went out hunting for them late at night while her parents were at social gatherings. One night, when Katie was about eleven, Katie was walking in an alley, on the other side of town from where she lived, and a hungry vampire picked up on her scent. The vampire tracked her down and found her, started talking to her, getting some information out of her about her family and her life.

Then, he knelt down and wrapped his arms around her in a tight embrace. Katie found it strange and wanted to run, but there was something about him that made her want to be there in his arms, and even wrap her arms around his neck. He smiled at her, his teeth gleaming. With a gentle touch, he pushed back Katie's hair and then bit down on her neck. For a minute, Katie struggled, but he held her tightly and kept his mouth clamped down on her skin until she stopped struggling. Then and only then, he stood, took Katie's hand, and then walked out of the alley with her where he called a cab. He gave the driver money and told him Katie's address, and leaned down to Katie and said, "I'll see you soon" and then disappeared. For days Katie spent her time sketching him on scrap paper and on the pages of her books - in fact, her bedroom walls were and are covered in pictures of him. She never saw him again like he said she would, but she is constantly and sometimes mindlessly drawing him on any available paper.

A few years later, at fifteen, Katie began to notice something, something she knew her parents would hate - she liked girls. She was able to keep it hidden for half a year, but finally she just couldn't do it anymore and told her parents. Her parents were practically disgusted with her and talk to her less than they used to, which was already bare minimum. So, Katie came to Rousseau's Academy

Up for love? Yes - Bi

Other: Twin dual blade swords...


Dagger...

Hey Is this okay? If not, tell me what to fix



Name: Cherelle Dalton

Age:17

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Skills: Hand to hand combat

Magical/Non Magical: Non magical

Appearance: Blonde, and pretty. People misjudge her by her appearance so she surprises them with her strength


Personality: Friendly, flirty, bright and bubbly. Not shy in the least, very outgoing. She trusts people whole-heartedly which generally has her heartbroken. Many think her as a bimbo, but she is surprisingly intelligent. She is extremely flirty and loves boys that are dangerous and exciting.

Likes/Dislikes: Hates vampires, likes fighting, flirting and talking with people. She loves using her gorgeous appearance to her advantage.

Flaws: She is very strong and muscular so it gives her broad shoulders and not a slender physique. Also, she puts herself out too much and gets hurt.

History: Her mother was killed by a vampire when she was only little, and the vampire was close to killing Cherelle as well, but her father intervened just in time. Her father is a dedicated vampire hunter, but was absent for much of her growing up, as he travelled constantly. She swore from a young age that she would grow to be just like her father. Because her father was away a lot, she lived with her mother only, and they had little money.

Up for love: Yes, definitely. Straight.

Other: Hates animals but not as much as she hates vampires.

Name: Noah Porter (More commonly known as Noah Samuels)

Age: 15, looks 19-21

Gender: Male

Race: Werewolf

Skills: Brawling, tracking, being distracting

Magical or Non-magical: Non-magical, unless you count transformation as magic.

Appearance: Noah's hair is a rich reddish-brown color, and it's pretty curly. It's a mess, usually, but a dignified one. Like a wolf, he's lean, very much so, and long-limbed. He walks with a sort of stride - it's almost awkward, but not quite there, and pretty much reeks of confidence. He's not too thin, and stands at the respectable height of 6'1". He dresses in the most comfortable of clothes, usually board shorts if possible, and is more likely than not playing with a stress ball, tossing it around, catching it, etc.

As a werewolf, he's utterly terrifying. Forget the werewolves of Twilight and those who fall for girls. This werewolf is huge, clocking in at a massive eight and a half feet and just under four hundred pounds. His fur is pitch-black, and his teeth (and claws) are razor sharp, ready to wound at the slightest touch. His fur is coarse and long, and the blue iris of his eyes drowns out everything else, turning the entire eye into an unnatural sheen of blue.



Personality: Noah is mischief condensed into a single living creature. He's wild, rowdy, loud, and brutally honest. Cocky and perhaps a tad overconfident, he charges into things without really thinking them through. Carpe Diem. Seize the day. Live for the moment. Nothing but the present and the present alone matters to this wild child, and he's not going to let anything get in the way of his having fun.

You'll never hear an apology from this boy, nor will he ever ask for permission. It's difficult to get him angry, and most of the time he often provokes people just to get a reaction from them. He's cheeky and sarcastic, and pays little to no attention of others' opinions of him.

Like most other werewolves, Noah is extremely loyal, and will die for the pack if needed. Not that he has a pack, but you get the meaning. He's not afraid of a fight and will never back down. Once an idea gets into his head, he's not likely to let it go until he's figured it out.

Despite the endless amount of energy, he's not exactly a terrible student, and actually gets pretty good grades. In addition to that, despite the extroversion he exhibits in limitless amounts, no one really knows anything about him. He isn't quick to talk about himself, and would always change the topic. He has no close friends, and only maintains a wide group of acquaintances who gravitate towards him thanks to his charisma.

Likes/Dislikes: Dislikes vegetables, staying in one place for too long, and orders (as he hasn't yet found anyone he deems a worthy alpha). Likes fights, hunting, and generally anything that involves physical activity. Also likes clubs, places practically pounding with energy, and surrounding himself with people. Dislikes personal questions.

Flaw/s: ...Listed above? He's reckless, cannot take orders, and stubborn. Doesn't know his limits. Kind of insensitive, and pretty oblivious at times. Impatient, and careless at best. Overconfident and never heeds advice.

History: Noah's the second of three boys, and the scion of a politically powerful clan. He's lived a pretty clean cut life - white picket fence, family dog, average grades, good at sports, and the occasional sibling fight all come with the package.

He was thirteen when he was bitten by a werewolf. It wasn't a personal vendetta against his family or anything; they just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Noah was jogging through Central Park with his brothers one night when, as a joke, they decided to race each other. Noah and his older brother pulled ahead of the younger one, who was less athletic. The two older Porter siblings were attacked. Mathias, his older brother, went to a military school, and was thus able to fend off the wolves. Noah wasn't quite as lucky, and got bitten. Several times. Luckily, bodyguards came up in time and shot the rogue wolves dead.

Noah was in the ICU for a week, and when he left it they encountered another problem - Noah would sometimes wake up naked in the middle of nowhere, confused, dazed, and most definitely lost, with no recollection of what happened hours before. Wolf attacks were rampant, and evidence against Noah piled.

It was eventually agreed that perhaps some time at a boarding school would teach him discipline. Mathias voted for military school; the rest of the family agreed Noah should go to Rousseau's.

No one at Rousseau knows his past, nor of his real family name. He's taken on his mother's maiden name for his stay there, and he's kept mum about his secret for the longest time.

Since his entrance into the academy, Noah has noticed something that terrifies him, pretty much. He's physically aging much faster than the average human, and it's obvious. In the two years he's spent as a werewolf, his human form's physically aged by six years, and this freaks him out. He realizes the clock is ticking, and he has even less time than the average human does to live his life. Even worse, the older he gets, the faster he seems to age. He's since made up his mind to do what he wants.

He probably won't live long enough to suffer too many consequences anyway.

Up for love? Yes, I think. Bi

Other: No weapons but fists/claws. He's being eyed as a future second-in-command for Lance's pack when Lance dies, but this is a hot topic, considering exactly how terrible at planning for the future Noah is. On the other hand, he's not a bad leader...?
_________________________________________________________________________________________

(This is copied from the old SB, so if it doesn't exactly fit with the current profile, I'm sorry. I think stuff here are clear, though, but I'll add the flaws, just in case.)

Name: Declan van Alstyne (Human name during the 1400s, and technically still his legal name. His original name is Aristodemus, but no one knows that.)

Age (13-25, older for vampires): 2,019 years. Physically? 15 going on 16.

Gender: Male

Race: Vampire

Skills:

Physical:

Declan may not be the bulkiest guy out there (he's actually pretty lean) but years of being a vampire has given him preternatural speed, even when you take into account his being a vampire. He's so quick he actually seems to teleport from one place to another. As a human, he was pretty quick and would always win games of tag. As a vampire, you simply can't catch him anymore. His eyesight is also unbelievably sharp, allowing for perfect aim, even in absolute darkness.

These skills, combined, make Declan the human personification of a blitzkreig. Quick, precise attacks at the enemy's weak points leave his opponent dead within the first minute of the fight. This has allowed him to retain his position as the coven's leader even though bigger (and rarely, older), vampires have come and challenged his position.

He is, however, very frail and tires out quickly. He's not exactly the strongest of vampires either, and although he's on par with average humans, still doesn't like to exert himself that way.

Other:

Declan is skilled in both telepathy and telekinesis. Can read people's thoughts and intentions towards him. His telekinesis has gotten to the point where he could stop someone else's heart if he wanted to.

Magical or Non-magical: Magical, if being a vampire is magical. o0"

Personality:

Behind Declan's young appearance lies years of accumulated wisdom and craftiness. He's the guy with a contented look on his face and a calm aura about him. He's generally easy-going and tends to spend a lot of time with his "children" (although he doesn't truly like calling them that, he does nickname them). His humor is often dark and cynical, but he hardly ever worries about anything because he's seen a lot and can generally foresee the effects of most courses of actions. He does, however, keep in mind he hasn't seen everything yet and is willing to listen to others' opinions. He's rarely curious thanks to the sheer amount of things he's seen, but when he is he reverts to a child-like persona who's eager to learn everything.

Declan will never allow anything to hurt his coven, and anyone who does will be punished severely. He's vindictive when wronged. However, he's not the type to rush into a battle. He waits for the perfect moment and strikes with quick precision. He doesn't like being angry, as he says it eats him up on the inside, so he tends to warn people when they're about to cross the line.

Most of the time Declan is quiet and even speaks in a clipped voice. Doesn't speak unless he absolutely needs to. Also very secretive - he operates on a need-to-know basis, and in his opinion, no one needs to know anything.

Declan is a generous person by heart. He allows his children to leave the coven as they please and even entertains them when they come back to ask for favors.

He is, however, very picky as to who he grants eternal life to. He encourages his children to think carefully about it as well, but does not restrict them from sharing their gift.

Flaw/s: As mentioned, Declan is incredibly vindictive, and this could lead to his downfall. He can't simply move on when someone he loves is under attack, and in effect, meddles in the affairs of his children. Some of them hate him for this, and some of them love him for it. Similarly, he's unable to believe one of his children can turn against him, and this, combined with his generosity, is a weakness that has been exploited time and time again. Adrian has managed to keep Declan under wraps for the last four centuries, and before Adrian there was another.

Lastly, his protectiveness leads him into dangerous situations without telling his loved ones, for fear they'll get hurt trying to help him.

Appearance: Declan looks 15 and has never lost the vibrancy of his youth. He used to be pale-skinned, but as of recent he's discovered that he can go into the sun for as long as an hour before getting severe sunburns. These days he can pass for a fair-skinned human, except for his eyes. His eyes will forever remain an inhuman candy-apple red, but their color isn't the only thing disturbing about them. It's the weary wisdom and depth in them that often intimidate people.



Likes:

Declan enjoys running and playing such games, but since he often wins he's gotten bored. He only wishes to play against the quickest of his children, and only when they want to. He's not prone to forcing people. Declan enjoys horseback riding and other sports which don't rely heavily on strength. (Fencing, cycling, archery, etc.) He loves mammals and keeps two rottweilers (technically hell hounds now, since they've turned into vampires after a mishap with one of Declan's children - they were executed after almost murdering the dogs) in his coven. Declan also enjoys reading.

Also, he loves his sleep very, very much. Anyone who disturbs him for a bad reason will be better off hiding in hell.

Dislikes:

Declan hates insects. He will thwap any one that comes near him. He's also allergic to flowers, particularly sunflowers and daisies. Dislikes documentaries and history books, because he insists they're factually erroneous and tinted with bias. Is terrified of going into large bodies of water and always, always takes a shower, refusing to use even a tub, thanks to an experience when he was younger.

History: Aristodemus was born in Rome, little over a decade before Christ was crucified. His mother was the Greek concubine of a powerful Roman senator who had no wife. The senator took Aristodemus in as his own and gave him a good education, wanting Aristodemus to grow up to be a senator as well. Shortly before Christ was crucified, Aristodemus left his home for compulsory military training, but he and his escorts were blindsided by bandits before they ever got to the military camp.

Left for dead and bleeding copiously, Aristodemus attracted a savage vampire who turned him in hopes for a companion. She disgusted Aristodemus to no end, and the fledgling fled as soon as he recovered from his injuries. He wandered alone for a few years, then joined a mid-sized coven. The coven grew, and the leader aged until one day, angered by an injustice, a faction of the coven revolted. Aristodemus was well-aware of the leader's injustice and took care to steer clear of the mess. The new leader proved just as terrible as the last, and was swiftly assassinated. Tired once more of the senseless violence, Aristodemus left.

He eventually sired another vampire (currently deceased - threw himself into the sun in the early 800s) and eventually, attracted a small group of friends. Later on the coven grew and his friends contested his leadership, but he'd already proven himself an able leader by then, and was able to garner enough support to overthrow the elders attempting to depose him.

After the middle ages he resurfaced in the world, introducing himself as the son of one of his vampire children. Up to this day, he passes himself off as one of his vampire children's sons in the human world, though he is the one managing the affairs of his "father".

He remains faithful to his Roman fiancee even after more than 2000 years, and watches over her descendants (not his) faithfully. Currently he's a good friend of her scion's latest generation.

Other: He's studied to be a doctor and is actually a practicing one, but under a different name. Also owns numerous properties under his name.

Up for love: (Yes or no) Frankly, no. Declan is not interested in any children. That's...pedophilia, sort of. o0"

Name: Marisol Alverez

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Race: Faerie

Magical or Non-magical: Magical

She is 5'9, weighing in at 160 pounds.

(Except with wings.)

Personality: She isn't the type of 'Happy, super pep, cheerleader, prom queen' girl. Marisol is very smart, though she doesn't talk much. She's very quite, making her almost invisble. When she does talk, however, it's to give her own opinion on something. Mari is a reader, reading anytime she can.

Likes/Dislikes:
Likes-Reading, being alone, playing with magic-dark magic
Dislikes- Weapons, study classes.

Flaw/s: She has zero socialization skills. She doesn't do well with people in large settings. She's very introversive. She's also self harming herself.

History: Marisol was born into a fairly rich family. She has two older sisters, named Valerie and Rosario. Rosario always teased her, Valerie always stood up for her. Both her parents acted like they didn't care about her, showing love for the brillant Valerie, and the stunning Rosario. Eventually, Mari became like the cinderella of the family, doing whatever she was told without complaint.
Marisol died when she was ten. She was killed by a maniac serieal killer. She was made into a faerie, however, and sent back to her parents. However, after that, her parents trusted and respected her even less then before. Rosario's teasing become more intense, sometimes hurting Mari to 'see if she could feel anything becuase she's dead'.
It slowly made Mari hate herself, and make her not feel worthy of herself, driving her to do self-harming activites. (Mainly cutting and burning herself) Eventually, her father sent her to Rousseau's Academy, to 'try and make her feel better'. She still has nightmares of Rosario's teasing, and her parents not caring.

Up for love? Yes, she is. She's is bisexual.

Other: She has a small gray Russian Blue kitten called Belle


Weapon
One dagger, not used

Name: Rory Calros

Age: 17(frozen age) 110(actual age)

Gender: Female

Race: Vampire

Skills: Fluid, agile fighter. Immense speed. She's very worldly; fluent in both Spanish and Italian.

Magical or Non-magical: Non-magical

Appearance: Dark edgy brown hair (cut short); solid clear, blue eyes; ivory skin; about 5'4"/115lbs, Menacingly beautiful smile. She's dainty in the eyes of most, but holds an overwhelming amount of strength behind the mask.

Personality: Generally relaxing. Is there for others who choose to befriend her. Quiet and very easygoing in nature. Charmingly witty. She takes in everything, although tending to give away not much in return. Her greatest weakness is the subject of her personal life and past, for she tries immensely hard to bury her unfulfilling past.

Likes/Dislikes: Likes friendly, genuine people. Dislikes the deceptive and ingenuine.

Flaw/s: Holds a very repressed personality. Does not entirely trust, but is one who can be trusted.

History: Born in 1901, turned in 1918, Rory, born out of wedlock, was adopted into an orphanage as a newborn. She holds no real roots with any past family. She was unsuspectedly adopted into a small coven of vampires at the prime age of seventeen, and turned to fulfill the role as mate to the leader of this coven. When things went sour and the coven got wrapped up in trouble during the roaring twenties, Rory went off on her own in search of something better (something to call her own/find her niche in the world), and has remained on her own ever since.

Up for love? Yes. Rory holds a relatively empty heart, but is in no way on the search -having known nothing more than her arranged mate. She's unaware that a beautiful thing such as love can exist in a world where monsters like herself exist.

Other: Rory has been successful in the past with money, and holds quite the impressive bank account for security purposes. She has owned many priceless possessions in the past, but her car in particular is always near. It almsot defines her. A gift from a handsome European man she once held an endearing, almost fatherly relationship with, until his recent passing. In respect, she also took his last name as he had so graciously turned over his will to her.

Appearance:[b]

Spoiler! :

She is very kind once you get to know her, and, even though she doesn't seem it, likes to party. She asks dumb questions a lot and isn't the smartest tool in the shed. She's also very weak.

Other: She transforms into this:

So, Scarlett...*cough cough* when are we starting? Just wondering.
