xxxxxxxxxx✦
xxxxxPeople looking for a new home buy property and move out into a rural village in a northern mountainous region. They are greeted by a small community of locals that call the town home. Little do they know is that the locals are creatures hiding from something, or keeping something hidden...

xxxxxLocal town legend suggests a curse was placed on the town. Villagers long ago believed their town was distraught with bad luck. Many tragedies and unexpected events were happening, and the ignorant villagers put the blame on the outcasts. Calling these innocents "witches," they demanded to know why these events were happening. They wondered if any other "witches" were at work behind their accused, so they preformed a ritual to summon all of the "monsters" out of the wilderness. The ritual surprisingly worked- creatures from all walks of life were drawn to the town even though none were behind the falsely accused outcasts. The villagers, frightened, abandoned their small town and traveled elsewhere. However, when the creatures tried to leave, something blocked them from leaving- or, if they ever did escape, they would disappear afterwords without a trace. It seems they were trapped inside of the village, and the ritual put a curse on them. A darker force had seemed to been drawn up that rose above the creatures.

xxxxxAs time went on, the curse seemed to lighten even though the descendants of the creatures- and some themselves- still live in the town. But, with more humans moving in, the creatures feel the dark force reawakening and fear their lives and their new neighbors' may be at risk. Can they put an end to the curse, or will it reawaken for good?

✦ - the creatures

The Witch
✦ Armani Grace Logan | Feminine Non-binary | 19
xxxxxThe witch came to the small town years following the hysteria. They moved here not knowing there were other creatures, but soon came to discover the town is teaming with them. They are not familiar first-hand with the legend, but they do know the history of the town, perhaps from some of the residents who have seen the events or from the local library. The witch has animal familiar who they call their pet. They can communicate with animals, can make spells (just not over-powered ones), and can become invisible.

The Vampire
✦ Julius Oscar Morgan | Cis Male | 126 - appears 26
xxxxxLike the witch, the vampire hasn't experienced the town's history for themselves. They moved here from another town teaming with creatures. They're a typical vampire with fangs and are sensitive to sun. They're kinda conceited and can transform into a bat and are stronger than the average person.

The Werewolf --- reserved
✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age
xxxxxThe werewolf moved to the town after its history. The werewolf shifts into wolf when angry, shifts at full moon, and is the leader of pack (npcs), which members that have or have not known the werewolf before they moved here. The werewolf is physically strong and fit, and can communicate with carnivore animals.

The Siren --- reserved
✦ Name Surname | Female | Age
xxxxxThe siren is a fierce female creature that initially came from the lake long ago. She grows a mermaid tail in water and can breathe underwater. She has charm that allows her to convince other characters into following her easily (if role-player allows for). She saw the legendary events of the town, and it was then that she was drawn from the lake to the town and lived in the town since.

The Fallen Angel
✦ Theodore Ray Scott | Male | Appears 25
xxxxxThe fallen angel fell from the sky when the ritual occurred, and has lived in the town ever since. The angel can grow feathery wings and fly but their wings grow tired before they are able to leave the town. It as if a force makes them grow tired. They also have an ability to sense one's emotions and can see into one's past (if role-player allows for).

The Zombie --- reserved
✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age
xxxxxThe zombie never sleeps but has endless energy although they look tired all the time. They have great stamina and they're a fast runner but not very strong. They're probably the most "human" out of the creatures, as they once were human a long time ago. They traveled to the town and weren't necessarily there for the hysteria.

The Gorgon --- reserved
✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age
xxxxxThe gorgon has power over snakes and their hair can turn into them. When their hair becomes snakes they can "freeze" a person into stone (if role-player allows for) for a short period of time, which is a good mechanism if they need to escape a dangerous situation. They traveled to the town years after the events occurred.

The Demon
✦ Wolfgang "Aaron" Adams | Cis Male | Centuries Old - appears late 20's to early 30's
xxxxxThe demon lived in the town years before the hysteria even occurred. They were running away from a bad past and got caught in the situation. They've been trying to confront their own demons but have a hard time doing so trapped in the town. They can control or turn into shadows of different kinds and can manipulate fire or make it when they're mad. The demon is short-tempered and can get upset easily.

The Siblings
✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- reserved
xxxxx✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- reserved
xxxxxTwo siblings moved here and bought a home together. They act like very close friends- they're the closest family can get. They came here because they wanted a break from their normal lives, or because of complications at home.

The Braves
✦ Aubrey Gabriel Knox | Cis Male | 24
xxxxx✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- open
xxxxxxxx✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- open
xxxxxxxxxx✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- open
xxxxxx✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- open
✦ Name Surname | Gender | Age --- open
xxxxxEach came here separately, buying a small home or apartment. They may have some past ties or have come here together, but they do not all know each other. These characters are more open to imagination than the others; for example, instead of it being predetermined that two are siblings (like above), you get to choose whether you want one to be a sibling or not, or close friends, etc. You may talk to other role-players on the discussion thread about this!

Histories
xxxxxThese are histories between the creatures so relationships in the role-play can already have been started, and to help guide the characters' interactions. They are not paired romantically with the characters and the characters are free to explore relationships with other characters, but they do have pre-established relationships with other characters they recognize (and may continue). The "pre-determined" relationships are flexible, so the role-player may add more detail to it- that's why the descriptions are brief!

The Witch & Gorgon
xxxxxThe witch met the gorgon after the gorgon moved to town. The witch comforted the gorgon when they felt troubled first moving into the town. The witch was the first to discover the gorgon was, in fact, a gorgon with snakes as hair. The witch used potions and spells to help the gorgon control his powers of turning his hair into snakes. The two trust each other. The witch is credited as to have aided the gorgon or to have comforted them because of their past. They share the traits of being to communicate to animals.

The Zombie & Siren
xxxxxThe zombie is the closest creature to a human in this town, perhaps because they once were human. The zombie was attracted to the siren's song, and the siren used her song to her advantage. She used the zombie, whether it be for friendship or more, and convinced the zombie they were close. However, after a while of doing this, the siren realized she was wrong and broke contact with the zombie. They're still friendly, but the zombie still doesn't know all of what happened.

The Werewolf & Vampire
xxxxxThe vampire and werewolf became support figures for one another when they first moved to the town. The werewolf was unstable with his shape-shifting powers, so the vampire took the responsibility to look out for the werewolf. However, the werewolf is adopting more members into its pack, and the vampire is afraid that the werewolf will also adopt more feral characteristics, which have, in the past, proven harm to some members in the town, including the vampire himself.

The Fallen Angel & Demon
xxxxxThe demon made some mistakes before he came to the town, which he initially traveled to so he could start with a clean slate and away from his painful history. However, when he wanted to leave and confront his past, the hysteria began and prevented him to do so. The town kept him trapped whenever he tried to leave. However, when the fallen angel fell from the sky, the angel sensed tension in the demon and saw a little bit into the past. The angel is curious about the demon and wants to help him confront his own demons, even though he is now reluctant.

Character Decided Relationships
xxxxxCurrently none.
