"History tells of Grimoire, the powerful magik texts that master witches and wizards learn from, the texts from which magic itself sprang forth. These books are things of incredible power and will easily corrupt weak minds, bending them to the will of the book before eventually destroying them entirely. What history doesn't tell us is where these books came from, and for that we must turn to legend. Upon creation the gods opened their Grimoire, blank, and began to write. The world as we know it is governed by those Grimoire that no living thing has ever laid eyes on. The Grimoire we know of belong to the angels, the servants of the gods. The angels for the most part served happily until a coven of angels rose up and fused their power, creating a bastard grimoire. Jealous of the gods ability to create and no longer content with merely serving, they sought to rise up, join as a single entity, and take their place among the gods by force. The battles became known, on earth as the dark ages. The entity was cast out, and her book sealed. The gods in their ignorance thought furs incapable of wielding magic, and they were right. Full blooded mortals cannot use magic, but the wars had a host of supernatural creatures fight among the living, and they bred. The holy knights saw the evil of the darkest Grimoire and formed the knights templar to keep it from any who would seek to use it. They took the book to the new world, burying it far from the reach of evil and dissolving over the years. Supernatural blood has trickled down over the centuries, seeping itself into all furkind, and now magik is limited only by the choice to practice, the availability of materials and the ability of the student. Magik permeates society as much as technology these days, though mostly only as ameteur work. True, powerful magicians are as rare as billionaires." A bell rings shrilly and some of the students jump in surprise. "Ok class, I want you to read chapter 17 and do a two page essay on how the salem witch trials actually benefited the magical community, turned in by monday, have a nice weekend"
This is a magic based RP
Setting is modern world, but with magic added to ease some modern inconveniences.
You may play as supernatural creatures (restrictions apply) but do your research carefully, werewolves still don't like silver, fairies still can't stand cold iron.
Standard furtopia rules apply
my rules
-my word (and my AGM should I choose one) are law
-no godmodding, I decide what godmodding is.
-all players will speak in the same POV and in past tense "Jared went over to the chest and opened it"
-players will make an attempt at proper spelling and grammar (if spell check would catch it and you didn't, then you are not attempting.)
-auto hits are a no, this includes automatically assuming you can pick lock a locked door without me saying you succeed.
-realism, it's great.
-No breaking the fourth wall...if you as a player know someone is following you that doesn't mean your character knows it.

Fire-control over fire, create fire, burn stuff, augment physical attacks.
Water-control over water, drench, create torrents, drown people, augment your swimming
Earth-control over earth, mud sand, rocks, throw them at people, augment defence by coating yourself in rock armor. you can also make rather nice pottery.
Lightning-Zap everything, cook it to a nice crisp, the attacks take longer to charge, but boy are they strong. Augment speed.
Wind-Blast people away, suffocate them, create debris whirlwinds to pummel enemies. augment agility.
Smoke-choke your enemies, sting their eyes, reduce their visibility. a thin smog surrounds you.
Lava-melt stuff, lotsa stuff. you put off enough body heat at this point to make being near isc golems dangerous...for the golem.
Wood-Vines, fungus, food shelter...mother nature is great isn't it? plants seem to grow better around you. You are followed by a light wind.
Storm-like smoke reduces visibility, but also provides a buffer against some other powers. small clouds may follow you.
Crystal-You can grow nice pointy weapons from nothing...in seconds! You skin (or fur) and claws become more crystalline in appearance.
Dust-Wear your enemies down over time, with your defence and knockback you ain't moving.You can now also create earth. sand and dust trails after you faintly on the ground.
Steel-you can change the form of metals you are touching, the extent depends on the metal. your claws, teeth and bones become more metallic.
Blaze-Heat without a heat source, you can control heat. You also emit as much as a lava, but a small will-o-wisp follows you.
Combustion- Blowing stuff up is fun. Your fur or skin takes on a scorched appearance.
Ice-Lotsa problems stop when you freeze them to death! The area around you feels normal to you but is actually as low as 35*F.
Shadow-TBA

But now both his mother and father are dead(Cancer). How he became a werewolf was when his father died, he took a long walk on one of the forest paths he took to forget about things, and was attacked by something then he woke up with a large slash on his arm that faded away after awhile, and soon had random transformations, he almost killed one of his friends, he knew something was up after that.

Age: 250 (lived through French Revolution.)
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 115

Clothing: typically wears black jeans, black converse, and a black hoodie. Also has access to nice dresses and the like.

Background: raised in an upper middle class family fairly well off before the revolution, which she fought for the lower class in. She was turned at 19 by a man who had forced herself upon her and was finished with her. She was forced to cope with her simptoms alone. Invested in the startup of Benelli arms At one point, and has been pretty well set for life since(though they believe her to be the descendant of the original investor.) has mostly been concerned with the affairs of those around her(the revolution), then the advancement of the company she'd invested in, and as such has just now decided to learn magic.
Magical affinity: wind and ice (storm later, if approved)
Grimoire:
Other: has mostly managed to nullify her accent, though it tends to become particularly strong whenever she's upset, or has had a few.

I decided to get rid of blaze as I only want two at the moment.
-
I decided to get rid of blaze as I only want two at the moment.
blaze is a combination of the two, not a truly separate affinity
aka. You can't get rid of it but it doesn't count against you.(unless you end up with a tertiary later on)
-
I will give this until tonight (or when sledge finishes his card, whichever happens last) then put the IC up, people can join late
As a side note, magik can be cast multiple ways, how it is cast can affect the strength of the spell, here is how they rank
Having a circle with crystal or gem spell focuses and using the full incantation is the most potent method very useful for healing.recommended for enchanting.
Next comes full incantation with crystal or gem spell focuses. Don't bother non-combat warding without using this method or better.
After that comes full incantation, it can be used in battle but is difficult.
Second weakest will be keyword casting, in which the user mainly only states the affinity and name of the spell, most commonly used in combat for the speed and ease of casting it provides.
The weakest method is silent casting, you won't blow anyone away like this, but it may be just enough to get you out of sticky situations.
As for the incantations, I want you guys to write those, you won't need them often, but I want you to have fun with them.
Also, this is important, I noticed that Mustang and Shard share an affinity. With proper timing two wizards who share the same affinity may work together to empower one another (extremely difficult, if you attempt this in the beginning your spells will simply clash and fizzle) Or they may manipulate each others attacks. However since Shard controls two affinities and Mustang one, Mustang's lightning will be stronger, his silent casting would be just as powerful as Shards keyword casting. This means that mustang can easily block, deflect, or absorb Shards lightning, while shard can only partially absorb,block, or deflect Mustangs lightning. This would force shard to fall back on to Fire magik.

Oh ok I understand now, also I'm very excited about this rp.
-
Oh how intriguing. i think i get/understand the power balance system you have set in play here.
-
It is a system of checks and balances
mythical creatures have inherent weaknesses so they are more magikally inclined
but if you split your time between multiple natures you also split your strength
If you play the game correctly these checks and balances make it so that you can win almost any battle
Btw multiple characters are allowed
I do have to say though, I accidentally gave earth a pretty large situational advantage if you can find it
It isn't written in here, but read between the lines and remember your mythos lore and it'll become apparent
Oh one last thing, you don't start with a grimoire, in fact you probably won't get it until much later, you can still cast magik though
This will start out mainly as a slice of life/ college type RP
one more thing...somewhere, maybe under affinity put your next affinity (the one that will come later in the game) in parenthesis

-
I forgot to put gender into the character sheet...
-
Updated it,also tweaked my physical looks a little
-
Just a question not trying to rush or anything take as long as you need, will the IC be starting later tonight or tommorow possibly?
-
I will give this until tonight (or when sledge finishes his card, whichever happens last) then put the IC up, people can join late
waiting on sledge
-
Oh ok
-
Sorry. Got busy with other things, and when I finally got on, my Internet was being wierd.
-
it's cool...I only just created the OOC two days ago
three is when I start to get impatient
-
oops...I didn't mean to actually click post
-
Sledge, you can't choose gravity, only the basic elements are things you can choose
In order to get any of the secondaries or tertiaries you have to have the basic elements they are made up of
If you were to pick water and wind you would automatically get ice
This also means that tertiaries (for now) are only open to supernaturals
If you want a tertiary I suggest being a supernatural, going with your prior idea reasoning being something about a technology preference until recently

I believe I've finished my card.

I've tweaked looks http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Ffc04.deviantart.net%2Ffs50%2Fi%2F2011%2F130%2F2%2F0%2F1305043181_werewolf_fight_by_sugarpoultry-d2ar40p.png&imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fsugarpoultry.deviantart.com%2Fart%2FWerewolf-Fight-138993433&h=900&w=900&tbnid=WyoEOILHnyxD-M%3A&zoom=1&docid=wKXCb5zNcZbukM&hl=en&ei=kNaOVLHaCYK3oQTFnILYCg&tbm=isch&ved=0CB0QMygBMAE&iact=rc&uact=3&dur=574&page=1&start=0&ndsp=18 he will look like this but with different colors also art by sugarpoultry.
-
Okay sledge, looks great just a couple tweaks
Weaknesses-no you don't need to worry about silver, but add in holy water and religious artifacts
Magikal affinity- you can't take Ice directly, but if you take water and wind you get it automatically
-

added this, also nice to see we have another rper :)
-
I saw it
if you went with water, wind, and later lightning, you'd end up with storm steel and ice...talk about a blade storm
now that is an AOE
-
Fixed. I think. Also added a few more weaknesses I forgot.
-
You are approved
Also you are AGM
-
Awesome. Is it daytime in the IC thread right now?
-
Note: Edited species to human to try and give a little balance. (and partially because i forgot you can be human)
-
Awesome. Is it daytime in the IC thread right now?
evening, starting to get dark
-
I think I can work with that.
-
Toned down werewolf height to 8'9(10'7 seemed to tall :P)
-
Ok, so another question... What is the relationship like between vampires and werewolves as species?
-
Ok, so another question... What is the relationship like between vampires and werewolves as species?
it'd either be really really good, or really really bad.
Either way, 55 gallon drums of passion
-
And you're not just saying that because you're playing an incubus?
-
And you're not just saying that because you're playing an incubus?
i'm saying it because they are typically natural enemies
or werewolves are slaves to vampires
or vampires are attempting to eradicate werewolves
trust me, incubi and vampires don't mix well being that they compete for the same prey and are very similar
they can be friends, but seldom lovers
-
Where does the very very good part of that come in, though? I'm merely trying to figure out how to interact with Shard's character if we have to.
-
that's up to you, I can't tell you how they would interact cause I don't fully know your character
-
Good point. Surely the relationships as a species would effect that to a degree, though. I guess we'll go with them being bad? What do you think, Shard?
-
Sounds good to me, maybe a little conflict here and there but not like a lot.
-
Well, as a species, their relationship would very very bad, then. Luckily for you, Shade isn't extremely concerned with others. There may be points where she asserts what has been ingrained in her as superiority, but for the most part there won't be conflict.
-
vampire lore differs on the details of how someone is turned...I will therefore go with my preferred method (not necessarily in this order)
1-victim must be fully drained of human blood
2-human must have ingested vampire blood within the past 2 hours
3-victim must not undergo the change in any environment detrimental to a vampire
this means that while risky and frowned upon, vampires can feed on other students provided they have a degree of self control
-
Sounds good to me.
-
I'll be out for a few hours, maybe a lot more, installing a new OS
If everyone is present and timeskip ready, Then make it so number Sledge.
Describe it how you wish, but keep in mind, for a fair fight all 5 elements will be present in the arena and it will be virtually indestructible via magic
after all...even the soon to be masters train here.
matchups are
Sven V.s. lightning, earth, crystal
Altius V.s. wind
Shade V.s. fire, earth, lava
Jacoby V.s. fire, earth, lava
Holly V.s. Lightning
Edit: nevermind...my computer is a piece of crap and won't install windows 10
-
I do want to clear a few things up
First, the circle I made mid fight was as an example, while you may manage to pull this off in the assessment, almost any other fight will be to the death
if you are supernatural, they WILL be prepared and they will maliciously exploit your weaknesses, that is the reason that supernatural creatures get a second nature.
Second, chances of pulling off a full power spell in a real fight are next to none. The primary use of full power spells are wards, enchantment, healing, and other non-combat magic.
Third and lastly, A circle can have any number of points and runes, the one I used was the simplest possible. The more ornate the circle, the stronger the spell.
-
Are the new students supposed to know some magic already? If not, the fights might be a bit one sided. If so, I guess they did research?
-
I could fight my self...i would know all my moves! It would be like the enemy is living inside my head. Magicception.
-
Are the new students supposed to know some magic already? If not, the fights might be a bit one sided. If so, I guess they did research?
well the fights are based by year
1st vs 1st 2nd vs 2nd...you get the idea
not only that but this is the biggest magical university in the country and one of the largest in the world
One does not simply walk into mor- i mean Merlin U...without knowing magic fircs
-
Well the orcs simply walk into mordor...so did Golumn
-
Lighting is electricity, plain and simple. Our bodies move and processes things using electrical impulses. Increase the number and speed of said electrical impulses and you increase reaction time and movement. It's essentially akin to self administering an Adrenaline shot, which we know increases movement, strength, and reaction time. however instead of it affecting the whole body, It's more of a directed Adrenaline shot.
-
which is why lightning has an innate speed increase
increasing it further than it's current level is risking nerve damage, nerve failure or worse, violent spasms
keep trying
I encourage creative thinking
-
It really depends on the amps. He could have thousands of volts and still be fine; the same idea is behind tazers and such. If he could focus the volts correctly with the minimum amount of amps, it would be possible to do so without so much as harming himself.
-
I never said it wasn't adversely affecting him, but i'm not going to point out, hey look his heart's beating faster than it should.
-
...so you WANT your character to have permanent and crippling nerve damage
i'm not allowing it under that method
I'd like you to keep your character playable, and that means not doing this...you are already default faster than any non lightning user, and they only get bursts of speed, if you can find a different way to justify it, maybe
@sledge you'd have to be a master magician in order to have that much control, we are students.
-
So... A couple more questions:
1. Is werewolf blood poisonous to vampires(if ingested)?
2. In some lore, vampire bites inject endorphins... Is that applicable?
-
I looked up lore and it said if a vampire bites a werewolf out of form, they can become a werewolf-vampire( can also transform) hybrid. if the werewolf is in form and the vampire ingested the blood, they become more aggressive and have a aversion to moonlight. So not really poisonous but just changes the vampire's actions and possibly even turn them into a werewolf hybrid.
-
That's one source of lore. There's many sources out there. I'd rather get the thoughts of the GM on which lore we're using.
-
True dat I guess we wait for GM. Also some lore also states that both of them would die if blood was exchanged, or one of them would die (the vampire would).
-
A vampire bite does contain endorphins, as well as a weak muscle relaxant
The muscle relaxant is too weak to work on most non supernaturals, which is why their blood is considered a delicacy
while vampire blood can be ingested by werewolves, it isn't advised, the two viri affect similar organs and hormones, creating a medical disorder known as the moonsick.
A werewolf with moonsick will be unable to shift, their feral side will fight them and they will either become insane, or become a feral unshifted. either way the patient is terminal and usually lasts a maximum of 3 years.
Theoretical crosses of vampires and werewolves are possible, however the individuals immune system would have to lack protein receptors for both viri and have each virus artificially introduced into their system, There is only one case in recorded history that has not used this method and survived.

Name: Hannibal Bates
Species: Polar Bear
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Height: 6'11''
Weight: 180lbs
Physical looks: Appears older than he is, well groomed with clean pearly white fur. Has bright blue eyes. He is well built with size in proportion to his height.
Clothing: Black shirt, tucked into black trousers, with black shoes. When outside in the cold, a long dark trench coat.
Personality & Background: Born into a wealthy family with a long line of magicians, he was quickly introduced to magic from an early age. However growing up, he persistently failed to match the skill of his siblings, and the ambitiously high expectations of his parents. This caused his parents to become emotionally distant from him, barely seeing his father especially, seeing him as more of a boss, and he an employee, rather than father and son. Due to this he is instilled with an obstinate drive to achieve and succeed. This drive allowing him to easily gain entry to the University, but still leaving him not good enough for his parents. It is his 1st year at the University and there he comes across as calculating, cold, shy, and fairly quiet, but also kind and polite in his own way. He often appears tired, as though he has been up all night.
Magical affinity: Wind, water later? O.o
Grimoire: N/A
-
Yay! Another person has joined :) now we wait for GM approval.
-
Or AGM approval. The only thing I don't know about is the gravity thing later on...
-
It.....interests me greatly >_>
But seeing as later spells come into play later on, It won't matter too much for now right? O.o
-
A non magical creature can't learn a tertiary It's strictly for game balance.
look at the chart, lightning+earth= crystal which means you need both of those to get crystal
which means you need lightning, fire, and wind to get gravity. Only supernatural creatures and some very special individuals are capable of more than two natures.
Good to see you bear.
-
That's unfortunate, I wanna be special :'(
I'm sure I'll deal with it, it just piqued my curiosity greatly ^-^
And good to see you too!
-
if you played a supernatural creature you could pick it up later game
-
A few more questions... Or rather, 2 questions and an idea I'd like to bounce off of you before I actually put it to use.
First, when it comes to sunlight, can a vamp wear kings leaves and gloves and such and be fine, or will it burn them through the clothes?
Second, where is this school? What state, I mean...
And third, the idea: can students(maybe just later year students even) have a sort of mirror or wardrobe they can walk through to go home and visit if they are from somewhere distant?
-
Kings leaves? what's that?
you can be burned through most normal clothing, however there are enchantments to counter this... as you will learn soon
Sedona, Arizona
no...but I suppose you could get something made....though it wouldn't be easy...ask the right questions, right people.
-
I believe kings leaves are something autocorrect came up with. It was supposed to be long sleeves.
And affirmative to all three answers.
-
As a side note, when you magical creatures take a tertiary affinity your secondaries will become true affinities, right now you are combining (example) Earth and water magics to produce wood, but if you were to end up with a tertiary you'd be able to directly produce wood magic without ever breathing a word of water or earth
On another note, later when you get access to a new magic you may decide to double up on your current affinity to become even more powerful, at that point if you are of a singular element you would be the equivalent in power of a pure elemental
also, there are affinities that are not listed, play well and you may find a page of this lost magic, will you be able to cast it though? who knows?l
Lastly the later affinities you listed on your character sheet are not final, you may change your mind at any point up until you receive your next affinity, you do not need to edit your character sheet to reflect these changes, nor do you need to notify me or sledge, I actually only asked for this because I wanted to make sure you understood the way affinities interact
-
Alright, so, another question(these'll likely keep occurring...): can vampires eat normal food/drink normal drinks? If so, can they get anything from it, or would it be more of a social thing?
-
They can, but it's empty calories. Normal food (aside from things like rare steak, liver, blood pudding) won't process properly in their body, it's like how humans can't process cellulose.
-
Actually! Humans can process cellulose. it acts as a hydrophilic bulking agent, more commonly referred to as Dietary Fiber, which get's broken down via cellulolysis. (i knew my biology class had to be good for something) Are systems however are very limited in their ability to break it down.

No, we do not posses the enzymes to break down cellulose, there are however bacteria in our intestines that do produce that enzyme and contribute to our limited ability to indirectly process cellulose. This is also the reason why powerful antibiotics give many people diarrhea, the antibiotics pass through the system and kill the bacteria. There has yet to be a single vertebrate discovered that can independently process cellulose
I took a class on Biochem, I still rarely use it.
-
indirectly process cellulose: May be indirectly, but still being processed.
-
Are we going to argue about this? Really?

For talking out of turn!
No, i wouldn't call it an argument anyways. More or less a debate at this current point.
-

but by technicality it isn't so my statement is still correct.
Relax sledge, it's a debate, all in good fun.
-
Well i could also swing a technicality in the wording and make my statement true, bringing us to a stalemate....which is much more desirable than stale bread. or stale anything really.
-
stale bread is gross
speaking of stale, we might be fighting undead soon-ish
-
I probably will never meet a livelier group of stiffs, maybe we could ask them some questions about death. I hear dying is pretty much a deadend job.
-
Shard, can you wait for others to post? I get that you seem to like the RP, but you don't have to post every other post.
-
Sorry about that I will wait.
-
So are people even still active in this?
i'm pretty much waiting for responses from all three of you
-
I know, with midterms coming up i'm just getting in posts where i can, plus i feel a decent sized post is required for mine.
