I'm suprised anyone knew what I was talking about. Lol. Okay then my next question would be what is the vampire to human ratio?

As far as the safety of the recruits would be concerned, in the way I mean at least, would be like a MP in the military, or added security of sorts. A well seasoned warrior

Its pretty much 50/50 at this point.

As for that, I'm asking the GM now. Although its highly likely your idea will be rejected.

Highly depends. Ive allowed people that are active and decently skilled be officers or instructors. So I dont know what to tell you exactly
 
It's fine if it gets rejected, I'd understand. Hm.....it seems your more trusted members are the "instructors". So if I could ask the. What is it I could fill a spot for? Recruit? Medical?

You can make another recruit. A human that focuses on healing and whatnot. Vamps cannot do magic. Period.
 
Recruit it is:). Thanks for helping me out, I prefer to ask questions so I can make a character to better fit the rps. I look forward to our first encounter. But if it's okay I'd prefer a vampire :)

Whatever floats your boat. I'm looking forward to your character draft.
 
Took me a while but I finished
Where to start.....
For starters, too old for a recruit. They are aged between 17 to 21 so.... too old.
Next, red eyes are features in only two pureblood families so that falls under shadowz1995 shadowz1995 's judgement.
Also the history could use more work but other than that, its alright I guess.

But be warned, his personality would mean that he would Frenzy easily and that means, you lose all control of him as the GM controls him as he attacks anything and everything in sight. So please put more thought into his personality and history even as it affects his stats.
 
Scarlett-Wulf Scarlett-Wulf Well, its better. But there are some problems. The last human-vamp war is literally centuries ago and anti-vamp sentiments are at an all time low now thanks to the Rotten.

I would suggest you see the lore in the different pages first.
 
So much detail, you did a great job. Okay so I changed up his history but I'm still in the process of proof reading it....I'd love some more input.
shadowz1995 shadowz1995
Both Grim and Shadowz are afk atm, but they should be back in a few :D

Also just for a little advice, take a look at everyone's character sheets; usually as a roleplayer I at least try to match the amount of detail others have put into their character sheets, bbcode or not. But that's just me~! Scarlett-Wulf Scarlett-Wulf
 
To be honest I just got out of the hospital today so I'm still a lil fuzzy from the meds. I usually can match others but I'm having trouble gathering my thoughts

I mean take it easy of course, just realize this is a pretty detailed RP so if you can handle that then it's all gravy
 
I know I can match the posts, the more detail or report I'm given the easier it is for me to give a good post with detail. Even though I'm medicated that's about the best I can do. The last time I did a character profile as detailed as everyone else's it took me a whole day to get it how I wanted it.

It's actually a good idea to spend an entire day on your CS, if you want I can supply a bbcode template for a vampire or Human and walk you through how to get some of the images. But yeah all of us have spent a great deal of time on our CS so if it's time you're worried about, don't be. The first lesson is over and we're moving to the evening time today, there isn't anything super important to establish during this time but would help with your characters relation to other's, but if you don't plan on having a partner or getting close to anyone at first I'd say you have quite a bit of time on your hands to put something together that you're really proud of! :)
 
I know I could use help. The history alone I could turn into a biography, I have gaps in it and other problems with just that. but I'm having problems with the other info as well....The ideas aren't flowing ya know

Completely understandable, if you're making a vampire and like music to draw inspiration/motivation from I would suggest something like this:

They will have a Blood Level and a proficiency level.

[I]What is the proficiency level?[/I]

The proficiency level is how experienced a vampire is in a specific physical trait. The higher the level, the less blood per post (BPP) it costs to enhance that ability along with an increase in the scale of the feats (i.e. going from being able to run at 100 mph to 200 mph).

[I]What determines how high my Blood Level is?[/I]

The size of your character's initial Blood Level will be decided by your character sheet. On that subject, I will personally be the one to determine your character's proficiency level and Blood Level according to what YOU give me on the CS of your character.

[I]Is there anyway to make you increase the proficiency levels I would like?[/I]

Kind of. The reason why your character is only allowed to start with 1-3 traits is because everyone has different talents. You are essentially choosing what your character is naturally talented at. If you choose three talents, your proficiency level for those three won't be high but your Blood Level will be higher and BPP will be less due to the variety.

If you choose to focus one trait, your proficiency will be much higher in that one trait. (e.g. only trait being in speed) though your Blood Level will be smaller.

[I]Does that mean I'm stuck to those three traits?[/I]

Of course not. The whole point of this early start in this RP is so your characters can "safely" become stronger as it goes. Whether that means you become stronger in your character's natural talents or you start moving into other traits for a wider array of combat possibilities.

[I]Do I gotta sit my ass through classes to increase my proficiency? Boiiiii you got me fu-"[/I]

Chill bih. The classes are for world building and lore along with some fun combat roleplay. Time skips will be a regular thing in this roleplay and will usually be weeks to months. During this time you can tell me what your character was learning in their classes and I will up their proficiency levels and Blood Level accordingly. They can only learn so much in the time I allotted for them. So don't try and power level yourself or something.

Oh! Your character levels up their natural talents faster than anything. So choose wisely.

[I]The hell is a Blood Level and BPP?[/I]

Glad you asked. The Blood Level is the maximum amount of blood your character can absorb from feeding. BPP stands for blood per post. Whenever your character uses blood to enhance something, they pay an activation cost and then a certain amount of blood every following post that it is active. I'll show you an example:

[B]Tyler was deadlocked with his older brother and he was losing out in the contest of strength. His brother was much stronger but Tyler was the faster one. The younger vampire decided to kick it up a notch and show his brother that he wasn't a little kid anymore! He grit his teeth and instantaneously felt the blood surging through his body, granting him the speed he was asking for. (-10)

Blood Level 80 / 90

Next post:

(-5) Tyler wasted no time in blowing his brother out of the water, overwhelming him with blinding, near super sonic speeds, landing blow after blow on the older vampire. It was a flurry of fists and blood that the elder sibling simply could not keep up with. All his strength was for naught and he could only cover up and try to protect himself from the torrent of blows.[/B]

[I]So what do I do when I run out of blood? Just attack everyone?[/I]

PRAY to every god you know that you don't run out of blood and Frenzy.

[I]......Ooooookay. What if I have low blood but stopped enhancing my abilities. Do I still Frenzy?[/I]

I will always be monitoring everything closely and it honestly depends on the situation. If your character's life is in jeopardy, he's low on blood, and scared....

Chances are he is going to Frenzy in a last ditch effort for survival. It also depends on whether or not he is injured. The last time he fed is also important. The frequency of feeding could save you in a low blood situation. A vampire that starves himself and is low on blood is a guaranteed Frenzy. One that feeds regularly and is low on blood might be able to resist the Frenzy.

[I]Does anything else influence vampire stuff?[/I]

Yes, actually. There are 3 types of vampires. Purebloods, Median Vamps, and Thinbloods:

[B]Purebloods[/B] are vampires that have only bred with other vampires all the way back to their oldest ancestor (who is probably still alive somewhere). Purebloods tend to have larger Blood Levels, a moderate BPP, and a high chance to Frenzy due to the fact that they must feed more often than the others.

[B]Median Vampires[/B] are vampires that have bred with humans and vampires with roughly equal frequency. These types of vampires have a moderate Blood Level, moderate to high BPP, and a moderate resistance to Frenzy due to frequency of feeding. These vampires are what make up the modern average.

[B]Thinbloods[/B] are vamps who have bred with humans for many generations and rarely produce another vampire child. The standard for these is a low Blood Level, a high BPP, and an extremely low chance of experiencing a Frenzy due to rarely needing to feed.

[I]Okay, I got all this. What I have more questions?[/I]

Ask away. I have a small staff that should be able to help out. Very rare that none of us will be on.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT][/CENTER][/bg]{/slide}{slide=[bg=white][border=2px dotted #300300][bg=white][CENTER][FONT=Old Standard TT][COLOR=#5E0500][SIZE=4]**//You can rename this//** The Beast[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT][/CENTER][/bg][/border][/bg]}[bg=white][CENTER][FONT=Old Standard TT][COLOR=black][SIZE=3]Vampires are naturally physically superior to human beings in almost every way. This is while the vampires are in a relaxed and natural state. These beings are the natural predators of humans and as such, need to drink human blood as their main form of sustenance. Studies have shown that the recommended diet for the average modern vampire is about two to three pints of blood each day. This number can fluctuate from individual to individual.

Blood is needed for the vampire to remain healthy, just like a human must eat to do so. But blood drinking has two added effects: enhancing the vampires talents and keeping the vampire sane.

Within all vampires exists an alter ego commonly referred to as "The Beast." The Beast is what gives the vampires their supernatural physical abilities. By burning the blood they have consumed, they are able to vastly enhance some of their physical traits, such as speed or strength. Doing this, as previously stated, uses up the blood they had consumed that day and would need to drink more in order to refuel.

The Beast is an insatiable instinct within vampires that can never be quelled. They can only temporarily dull the pull that The Beast has on their mind by engaging in some of the urges it desires. Whether that be consuming blood, sexual activity, contained violence, or other means. Things that aggravate it and strengthen the pull are injury, stress, starvation, combat, and blood enhancement.

Should, for some reason, a vampire choose not to curb the desires of The Beast or find themselves unable to, their mind will start to deteriorate. They become emotional, irritable, and violent. The longer they go without feeding, the stronger their physical abilities become. While it varies between individuals, the vampire will eventually succumb to a Frenzy. The Frenzy is when The Beast takes complete control of the consciousness of the vampire and will cause the vampire to go on an uncontrollable rampage, attacking everything in sight. During the Frenzy, the vampire uses all enhancements available to them to the fullest capability they are capable of. The Frenzy lasts longer depending on the overall strength of vampire. This is why the more powerful and experienced vampires are usually killed on sight rather than attempted to be restrained.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT][/CENTER][/bg]{/slide}[/accordion][/bg]

In Addition to providing the template for the code it also holds any valuable or important information regarding the Vampire you should include in the character sheet. There will be places that say "**//You can rename this//** where u can just make the slide say whatever you like and will give you a cleaner more organized place to put your history if you want to :)

I hope some of this helps! Scarlett-Wulf Scarlett-Wulf
