Introduction
" It's gonna be fun think about it a whole summer in the peace and tranquility of nature. " you mother says to you and your siblings as you enter the small town of Oakhill in southern Ohio, its an almost nothing town and those who have seen it think of it nothing more than a breeding ground of rednecks. Your mother says that her older brother has a son who is willing to take the two of you for the summer while your mom and dad go on a summerlong cruise but you don't want to leave your civilized Concord home. You have seen this cousin before whenever theres a family reunion and even then he is silent and always looking around. Hes very strange but very friendly when you talk to him. He is always seen with a pistol or a hunting knife on his belt when you see him. You start to doze off as you get closer and try to think about what your friends are doing.
In reality the town is home to more than humans. It is housed to demons and other 'monsters '. He is the keeper so to speak of these creatures and one of the few humans in the town. He is in charge of keeping them in the town and out of trouble with the other residents. He works with two assistants but they aren't human either. His job is getting harder and he fears of himself getting hurt or killed and if so he wants to train them to do the work if he gets hurt but they don't know that yet.
There are four main types of monsters they each have a type of skill and a weakness. They are powerful but still mortal. Any shot to the head will kill them instantly. Their powers will affect any normal human but it will have less to no effect on a Keeper.
Vampires are the basic monsters of the bunch. They are weak when it comes to sunlight making them slow and weak. They feed not on blood but extremly rare meat. They will kill something just for a snack but it is frowned upon to kill a fellow monster or human. They have the powers of hypnosis but it can be prevented and broken by the scent of garlic. They are prone to often challenge others when angered and will become docile if they lose.
Shapeshifters are a strange race of monster that other than their ability to change into the forms of a large animal which varies from bloodlines. They have superhuman abilities when in their animal form and can preform amazing feats. Their weakness is if they are exposed to silver or gold when in animal forms.
The succubus is a wild and seductive creature. They feed on the souls of humans and do so through seduction. Their clear difference between them and humans are the devils tail and large bat wings. They are clever and will get a human into a private place to eat their soul. They only have to eat monthly but like to eat as much as they can. Their weakness is to get a mirror infront of them while they try to seduce a human.
Goblins are extremely strange and somewhat brutish. They are spilt into two subtypes. The first and most common is a small, thin, pale creature. They are extremely smart and are the main shopkeepers in the town. The like to con people and will sell them objects or food that has gone bad unless they are confronted about it. The second type is a strong tall brutish creature capable of destroying a house with little effort. They have a bad temper and like to hurt humans ans creatures alike. The weakness for both types is a well placed bullet. They have no true weakness like humans but their skin is too hard to penetrate with a melee weapon.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 7 authors
"Since ever," he concluded after a few more moments. "And if you can see the future, then when are they gonna die? Ya know, just so I can get an estimate so I know what to bet." He was actually doubting himself now, but he didn't want to let her know that. He preferred to come off as the confident and classy type. At least, as classy as a goblin could get. Needless to say, he wasn't going to back down just yet.
"Afternoon, ladies. To what do I owe this wondrous meeting?"
"Please, James. Save the flattery for when you get hungry. Or do you still live off of bugs and plants out of 'sympathy'?" The rest of the group cackled at the insult.
"Kind as ever I see. Now look, I don't care that much, but if you get any closer to those cousins of Lucas', Sumi is gonna kill you."
"Oh, we just want to say hello, right girls?" James shivered at the thought. Seeing as they would not leave without some show of force, James quickly whipped out his revolver and shot at the crowd. The bullet did not hit anyone, of course, but whizzed past the heads of two of them, and made a large crater in a nearby tree. "Whoops, I missed." James said in a robotically sarcastic voice, and with that the voracious pack left. Hope nobody else heard that...

June crawled on top of the roof and laid down at the edge. Carefully, she lowered her head to peek through the window. No one. Pulling her body back up, she continued to crawl around with ease. "Humans..." She mumbled and she sighs. "....." Finding a more suitable place to observe, she sat down and hid against an elevated part of the rooftop. With her animalistic eyes, she stared at the humans and began to observe. The Female was careless, but sweet. Her hair was neatly brushed, meaning she was happy to arrive to this town. Anxious maybe. Her clothing were loose and child like, probably determining her innocence. Though The male seemed to be the bi-polor opposite, he was tall and intimidating in human standards. His hair was the same color as the girl obviously, meaning they're siblings. He appears to be bored and reluctant to be here, and from the sight of his body, he is strong and is able to put up quiet a fight. 'That is the one to look out for...' June noted cautiously, and started to crawl against the roof top again. 'Troublesome...'
[sorry for how choppy the post is. as well as the last one. I only have access to an ipad, and my computar just doesn't let me get to this certain rp link.]
He looked at Sumi and spoke rushed. "Sumi take them to the house I'm gonna check up on what happened." he said then ran over and went to where the gunshot was. He saw James and a group of succubus shocked. He shot his own rifle causing a tree to lose its branch and it cam crashing down. "James might miss but I don't know get out of here before I'm tempted to blow your brains out and if you get near them, I won't think twice." he said in a menacing matter fueled by adrenaline.
James watched in awe as the furious and fuming Lucas charged in and blasted his rifle at the succubi, well, near them anyways. Jesus Christ! Do you hate my kind that much? The nervous ladies looked at each other, and one of them spoke up, "Well then. Let's go girls. Bye James." James responded in a lethargic manner, "So long, see you at the reunions." and with that they dissipated into the grove.
"Hey Lucas, you OK? Kind of went crazy there." Something was definitely up. If James, who usually does not think things through at all, thought that his warning shot was a bad idea, then what the hell was what Lucas did? Usually, he was calm and collected, cautiously working things out and always formulating a plan. This time, he just went yippie-kay-yay on those winged cretins. The only answer James could fathom was overwork. Things had been getting pretty busy in Oakhill; there were a lot more attacks and troublemakers, as well as overall civil unrest. James and Sumi (mostly Sumi) help out as much as they can but, it just is not enough. "Maybe you need a vacation or something. You know, hang out with the cousins, sleep in, let Sumi handle all the work while I... Uh... Well, I'll find something to do."
This wasn't quite fair. Two new humans to the neighbourhood could attract a whole swarm of vampires, and yet they had left it down to just her to watch over them. What did they think she was? Some kind of beast? She didn't show these worries through her body language. However, on the inside she was a little bit terrified at what could jump out at them at any second.
He smiled at her politely. "Well I guess he is. Let's just go to the house for now." He said waving Alice to come along to the house. "So Sumi, what do you usually do around here for fun?" He asked kindly.
However...
It could be said that she had fun. Being Lucas' assistant did have a few perks. The chase was always a bit of a thrill. And if anyone in this town knew her, they knew that every so often, she got her little bursts of thirst for blood. "Well, you know, the usual..." Using her trustworthy friend Charlie the Chainsaw to fend off foes. "Walks around the lovely countryside..." Being able to eat meat fresh, especially when it was the meat of someone she hated. "Being able to buy handmade items by the locals..." Having the chase of a new fight everyday. "I'm sure that at first, this place will feel a lot like your home... Just with less of a city life feel to it and more of a... countryside aura..." Her calm and gentle voice managed to remain through all segments of speech, her gentle, but slightly calming slow voice probably helping to keep the innocent feel around her.
Sumi gave a pleasant smile to Raymond. "I'm sure that a handsome man like yourself will not be able to get bored in a place like this." she commented, knowing that it would be a mere compliment to him, but it could mean so much more...
She stepped out from under the shade, wincing a bit at the stinging sensation the light caused to her delicate skin. She noticed Alice struggling a bit and walked over to her as the little group of misfits continued down the road to where Lucas resided. "Do you need any help with your bags Alice?" she offered, hoping the sun wouldn't weaken her too much. She glanced at Sumi and smiled kindly, letting her know that she'd help her through this until her boss returned.
He didn't epect anything but he knew if there was he could probably just shoot before the creature would even know it. Infact he aoot down most anything given his current adrenaline levels and him protecting his cousins. He knew it wasn't smart to have them here but there wasn't much now so the best bet would be to have someone with them and NOT HAVE THEM SCREW AROUND.
She noticed Lucas rejoin the group, "That's what he's on edge about." She pulled her head back, slide over the counter and stared out the window. "He was worried about... siblings?" She shook her head. "No, they don't look enough like him." She rubbed her chin. "Friends, no too young." She noticed Sumi and Cylene. "Oh hey, look it's Cylene." She pointed to her. "Cylene's lovely, wonder why she's out this early." She rubbed her chin again. "What was I talking about again?" She looked over to Kane, a look of confusion on her face.
"ugh..." She mumbles, struggling to lift the heavy thing, her steps awkward and unprecise. "Do you need any help with your bags Alice?" Alice blinks and turns, noticing Cylene. A little smile graced her lips, and she shook her head. "No, no its okay.." She huffed, lifting the bag even more. "I can...do it!" Determined, she continued to walk, and continued to talk. "Besides i need....some strength in my arms..so this is...perfect training!" She breathed out harshly. "I lack upper body strength..so yeah.." Alice fixed her attention towards Cylene's umbrella. " and you seem kinda tired...are you alright..?" Alice asked, finally noticing some sort of strain in Cylene's body. Maybe it was just her imagination. " but thanks for asking though." She smiles gratefully at her, and as she did, she began to scan her appearance. "You're really pretty you know that Ms.Sae?" Alice bluntly asked, as she admired her beauty, and with realization she stopped. "Ah Im running my mouth again... sorry haha.."

To make matters worse, James might have to do more mediating. To avoid unnecessary conflict, James and Sumi often went to try and make deals with their respective races. James was not sure how Sumi felt about that, but James hated to have to talk with his kind. All of them were arrogant leeches who look at people like smoothies. After giving a empathetic stare at the two, he walked back over to Sumi and asked, "Calmed down yet?"
"Anything happen?" Sumi jumped at Lucas' sudden appearance and then let out a gentle sigh, shaking her head. "No, no it didn't. Next time though, don't suddenly leave me on my own with the cousins." She let out a small quiet sigh and then turned to James when he had followed along behind. For once, she kinda appreciated him being there. Sure, he was as annoying as the kind he had come from. But at least now, she wasn't the only one trying to protect the trio of humans. Though Lucas didn't need protecting as such. Just help. "Sort of, James..." She said quietly, looking to the floor and then tucking her long hair behind her ear, closing her eyes a moment and then opening them again. "Well, calm enough not to rip your head off at any second anyway." She said, smirking a little as she looked straight ahead.

Cylene smiled a bit as Alice refused help, arguing that she needed the exercise. She chuckled a bit. The brunette turned and looked at the young girl then, a bit distressed. Given that they were human and not to be told what exactly their new neighbors were, she was a bit at a loss of what to say. "I've been awake for a bit. My family owns an orchard and I help out sometimes." She smiled sincerely, noticing that Sumi seemed confused again. Cylene had missed her previous comment to Ray as she'd been paying attention to Alice.
She smiled back as her as Alice commented on how pretty she was. Cylene herself thought that she was quite ordinary compared to others in the town, but it was always nice to hear a compliment from a stranger. "Why thank you and might I say the same for you and your brother."
She turned to see Lucas and James had joined them. She waved a bit, as James was not her favourite type of species. But he seemed honest and loyal enough which was why she didn't bother to try and pick a fight with him as she normally would with succubi.
"Do you have a boyfriend, Alice?" she asked, partially out of curiosity and partially for her own benefit of knowing how to protect her. "And what about you Raymond? Is there anyone from your town whom you fancy?"
"I'm getting too stressed." he said under his breath then continued trying to calm his nerves without shooting something. He needed to go hunting without the pressure of the prey possibly being able to kill you. The last time he actually killed a deer was about a year ago which was a shame since venison is really good.
He took a breath and saw his house right over the hill. "There she is." he said happily pointing at the two story house. It could comfortably fit twenty people and seven if each needed their own room. It was a simple style, white with a few windows and a little deck on the front porch. It had been and was his home but it did hold the secret of the weapon's locker and Lucas' lab in the basement which he made sure no one but him, Sumi, or James entered. "Let's hurry and get ya inside." he said cheerily walking a bit faster.

Re: Cousin
SORRY! >////<
EDIT: Upon looking over the characters... oh my... we have a LOT of girls. Does anyone want me to create a boy instead? And if we need him to be old enough to be a romantic interest, perhaps the brothers could be twins? I don't mind all that much, though. We could just go with the younger sister, and have some people convert genders if they need to. (of course we could always do nothing if nobody cares all that much)
