- This will be over AIM, no exceptions.
- I'm advanced and looking for a partner who is as well.
- I'm looking for someone who is willing to play a male vampire.

Now, if you're still here; great! But let me explain to you what I expect in a role play partner, just in case "advanced" wasn't explanatory enough. When I say advanced what I mean is: Someone who can not only write long posts, but likes to. Someone who uses proper punctuation, grammar, and spelling. Someone who will contribute to the plot, not just go with it. Someone who can play their main character and background characters that help move the plot along. And most of all, someone creative who really loves to write. Because if you don't love to write, you're probably not what I'm looking for. If one of these things does not describe you, please leave now.

Also, if you haven't the time to role play please do not contact me. I understand real life but I'm looking for someone who can write with me a few times a week or at very least once a week.

Now, on to my plot. If you haven't guessed already my plot has to do with vampires. But not only that; werewolves, slayers, and secret organizations that protect the human public by keeping them in the dark about all this. Sounds cliche right? Well maybe a little, but it's deeper then that. Please read all I have to say about it, I promise you wont be disappointed.

-PLOT-

The plot is set in modern times, we have electricity and cars and guns and TV. Most of the human public doesn't know, but vampires and werewolves are real. Real and out for blood. The Guild is a secret organization that's been around for thousands of years, keeping the beasts in check and shielding the human public from their existence. It's comprised of not only humans, but vampires and werewolves as well; elite soldiers trained in combat against these beasts to take them down quickly and quietly. Not only that but The Guild has it's hands in everything. Soldiers stationed in the army, police forces, hospitals, government; everywhere all around the world. They are everywhere and see everything. They have to be, if they want to keep the public unaware. Now, they don't go around just killing off every vampire or werewolf they come across. Just the ones that stir up trouble.

While most humans are unaware of anything of the supernatural sort just speak the name Guild to anyone else and it'll make the hairs on the back of their neck stand up. Everyone knows who they are and what they stand for, everyone knows they are watching. Your best friend could be Guild and you wouldn't even know until the day he shot you in the back. All it takes is one flash of the symbol and perpetrators usually turn themselves in for hopes of a more lenient sentence then death. Every Guild member has this symbol burned into their skin somewhere on their body to mark them and it's engraved into the guns they carry. As you well guess people do try to forge this symbol on occasion. They are swiftly dealt with in the harshest of ways. Being a member of The Guild is no small matter. Once you're in; you're in for life. And if you want out early, your life ends early. This is because The Guild has many secrets they can't afford to have leaked. So forgeries and fakes are not tolerated.

The creator and leader of The Guild is a very old and very powerful vampire. The only people who know of his identity are his three understudies who carry out his orders. They are known as The Keepers, and they run The Guild in his shadow. One is a human, one a vampire, and the other a werewolf. This is to keep things fair and balanced between the races. Every 100 years, new Keepers are chosen.

The first Keeper, Cornelius, is a human. He was a soldier in the Spanish army and was stationed with the famous Ponce De Leon. Contrary to popular belief these men did find the fountain of youth and of the ones that drank from it Cornelius is the only one left. And because the others are long gone he is also the only person still alive who knows of the fountain's whereabouts. Many would like to share of this information but that is something he will take to his grave. After all, what kind of world would this be if anyone who wanted to could live forever? He's a tall, thick man with long white hair, matching beard, and deep winkles. He wears a silver suit of armor with an imposing broadsword at his side. His looks have been frozen this way for over 500 years.

The second Keeper, Valrick, is a vampire. He has pale white skin, paler then what you would normally expect of a vampire, this is due to the already fair complection he had when alive; and haunting acidic green eyes. His dark hair is always slicked back and he dresses in the garb of the Victorian Era. Being nearly 300 years old he has grown tired of consorting with what he would call "common folk" and rarely shows his face around unless something peaks his curiosity. When alive he was a noble so he enjoys the finer things in life. Nice clothes, servants, and when he was alive; wine. Now that he's dead he can be seen sipping his blood meals from a handsome silver chalice as he can not be bothered to touch his lips to a commoner's flesh. He may be snobby and it might not look like he's pulling his weight as a Keeper but the work he does behind the scenes is invaluable.

The third Keeper, Cefrem, is a werewolf. He is quite young compared to the others as he is only in his forties. He's ambitious, opinionated, headstrong, and is known for disagreeing with a lot of the "old ways" that The Guild tends to follow. Many of the members question why he was picked as a Keeper in the first place. He has long unkempt brown hair and a little more then stubble on his face; giving him a wild, almost crazy look. His teeth are sharp and he loves to show them off, just to remind people of what he is, and he has such light colored eyes that they seem almost colorless and clear. He has very strong opinions about his race and feels they've been given a bad rep. Anyone who says anything bad about his kind better be looking for a fight because that's what they'll get.

Cornelius, Valrick, and Cefrem are a little more then just background characters since they are authority figures in the plot but they will only be played as needed and I don't mind sharing them with my partner. In fact, I would hope that you would be okay with playing at least one of these as I have four other characters that will be around much more often. Let me tell you a little about them.

Alice is my main character. She's a 26 year old human and has been with The Guild since she was very young, she was actually the youngest member ever to be accepted. Though she had been with The Guild since she was about 6 her first kill wasn't until age 11. She was thrown into a locked room with a young werewolf (though young it was still bigger and stronger then her) and told she either came out alive as an accepted member or died. Ever since then Alice has hated werewolves more then anything. In the back of her mind she fears them but will not admit it, instead she explain her dislike as "They can turn you with just one bite, whereas with a vampire it takes much more then that." Alice has long black hair and pale ice blue eyes, they look almost inhuman and sometimes seem to have a glow about them. She can often be seen with a cigarette dangling from her lips and is never seen without her trademark leather jacket or her twin, flat black desert eagles. Her marksmanship is unequaled, she's able to calculate things like distance from target, bullet arc, wind, target movement, and other variables in her head to ensure a perfect shot every time. Basically, she was raised to be an assassin and is very good at her job.

Harvey is a human, he's 29 and is a native to Australia. He and Alice used to be partners before he got promoted and given his own team. Not wanting to work under his authority Alice did not become part of that team. His team consists of a child vampire telepath, an experiment of the government gone terribly wrong, and himself; an explosives expert. He's a cocky smooth talker with an appetite for danger.

Winifred is a vampire. She was crippled at birth and has never been able to use her legs. She was turned at the age of 12 but is over 800 years old, forever trapped in a tiny crippled body. But do not judge a book by its cover, although tiny and crippled Winifred is extremely powerful; her 800 years on this Earth have not been wasted. She has telepathic and telekinetic powers, meaning she can move objects and speak with just the use of her mind. She can even levitate herself but instead of wasting energy she has her teammate Gaunk carry her from place to place, they share a special connection that no one really understands. Besides her tele powers Winifred has one other little talent. She can summon flames from the depths of Hell. These flames burn so hot they not only effectively cremate you, they incinerate your very soul; ensuring you can never be brought back in any way or form, you'll no longer exist at all. She doesn't speak and she rarely even moves. If you talk to her she'll listen and if you're lucky you may hear a one word response echo through your head. The only people she's comfortable holding any kind of conversation with are Gaunk, Valrick, Alice, and Harvey. Though Harvey has a nasty habit of calling her Winnie which she hates.

Gaunk is a giant beast of a man. No one knows who he used to be but whoever it was there's absolutely no trace left. All he is now is a monster, an experiment left over from a darker time in human history. He stands nine feet tall with bulging muscles threatening to tear through the clothes he wears. His face is a mangled mess, hardly recognizable as human; so he wears an old potato sack to cover it. Gaunk is pure muscle, the definition of a tank, his brain was damaged in the experiments that were done on him so he's not very smart but extremely violent. The only person that can control him is Winifred, and no one is sure why.

-THE SYMBOL-

The Guild symbol is actually the Om symbol.

From Wiki:
Hindus believe that as creation began, the divine, all-encompassing consciousness took the form of the first and original vibration manifesting as sound "OM". The vibration of "OM" symbolizes the manifestation of God in form. "OM" is the reflection of the absolute reality, it is said to be without beginning or end and embracing all that exists. The mantra "OM" is the name of God, the vibration of the Supreme.

That is why when some people meditate that make that noise, the "OM" sound. They are inviting God into themselves, essentially becoming God for that moment. But anyway, that is not my point. My point is, I decided to use this symbol because it is essentially marking The Guild as God, the supreme entity. And that's sort of what they are, they watch over everything and control everything. Also, The Guild is a place where humans vampires and werewolves come together in harmony, the goal of The Guild is to bring this harmony to the rest of the world so that it is commonplace, they embrace all that exists by believing no one race should be on top and all races should have the right to live and prosper.

-PICTURES-

Yes, I have a lot of pictures. I know some people dislike this but when you find a picture that looks exactly like or very close to what you had in mind it's hard to turn that down. I like the pictures, this way people are absolutely sure of what my characters are suppose to look like.

-YOUR PLACE-

I know this is a lot to take in, believe me I know. I have been developing this plot for over three years and it still overwhelms me.
Now as I said before I am looking for someone to play as a male vampire, but that doesn't mean you can't have other characters as well.
You can be a part of The Guild, or an ex member on the run, an enemy, or a neutral party. The choice is yours.

-CONTACT ME-
