Vampire Wars (Revival)

Vampire Wars (Revival)

0 INK

Since the last one fell apart...here it is again!

1,821 readers have visited Vampire Wars (Revival) since Crystal Flamedance created it.

Introduction

This city is fairly new. Founded only a hundred or two years ago. It has a rather large population, and everything seems normal. To the humans, anyway. Most of the population, unknowingly, is made up of vampires. Most humans don't even realize there is such a huge war going on. But the vampires are fighting to claim the city as hunting grounds, and trying to get rid of the rival vampires to have more peace as they sleep. There is a lot of hatred in this little city...or maybe not so little, really. With one of the largest populations of any city, and so full of humans unaware of the existance of vampires, this city is a wonderful hunting grounds for vampires.

And me? I'm nothing but a peaceful vampire...until feeding time, anyway. But, aside from that, I'm just a simple healer. If you are inured, I am your best bet to a faster heal. And, because at about three thousand, I am by far the oldest vampire, I will give wisdom and answer the questions of younger vampires. After all, there is some information that should be passed down to younger vampires in case anything were to happen to me...or in case I decide I've had enough. And you don't want me as an enemy; vampires grow stronger as they age, especially their magical energies.

If you ever have any questions, or problems you aren't comfortable speaking with your fellow gang-mambers, I do not speak of anything to anyone else. Even if it's something as simple as a crush on another vampire...or even a human...I'm here to listen, not fight. In fact, I do not allow fighting on my territory in the cemetary. ...Yes, the entire cemetary is my territory, though I choose to remain on the far side, away from the city. I will not, however, give inside information on other gangs; I'm not a spy, and I will not reduce myself to it! But I'm here to help with injuries...or, if you don't want to end up with a gang; if, like me, you don't want to take part in fighting, I will alow vampires to follow me, and to practice healing. So...go have you war. Just keep it on your side of the cemetary, okay?

Needed:
two gang leaders
gang memebers
...not a very long list, is it?

Toggle Rules

1) No godmodding; allow others time to react. Give them a chance to dodge; but no one can dodge everything.

2) Vampires have sensitive eyes; they must be protected if they intend to go out during the day.

3) Vampires have keen senses. They can smell the differences in individuals easily, so they can't be snuck up on by humans or other vampires. Their hearing isn't quite as good; they can hear humans, but not vampires as easily.

4) After a vampire feeds, their sense of smell is dulled. They can hear as well as normal, but smelling becomes hard for an hour after.

5) Vampires can supplement food for blood, though you have to eat three times as much as a human to be an effective supplement.

6) You can start as a human, but, sooner or later, you will be turned. ...That, or get caught up in the craziness of the vampires. Either way, you can't be sheltered from them forever.

7) You can have special abilities, though keep it to two or three. And they cannot kill instantly; give others a chance to react, or to ty to fight, or to decide to give in. And each ability takes energy; and no vampire has unlimited energy. You will tire eventually.

8) A vampire cannot be killed alone; you must have help, because the vampire has to be ripped apart. And, if the pieces are not burned, they will pull themselves together; literally.

9) No half-vampires, please. Only pure vampires.

10) Romance is allowed, but pg only, please.

11) Vampires are immortal, and will live forever. So there can be a bit of fast-forwarding, as long as it makes sense and does not interrupt someone else's "moment." Humans, being mortal, can die in this rp by old age. Vampires can die, too; just not of age.

12) Vampires can sleep, but they sleep so lightly even a tiny breeze or movement can wake them. Another par of this war; trying to get rid of more vampires to have more peace.

13) This is set in some time in the past. There are no flamethrowers, guns, etc.

14) Vampires only have to feed on blood once every week. If they are trying to supplement with food, they pretty much have to constantly eat.

15) Vampires can control their venom as a snake can; they choose whether or not to inject any venom at all, and how much. Vampire venom is what changes a human into a vampire.

16) Vampires can tell when another vampire is either younger or older than they are, and when another one is close to the same age.

17) A vampires eyes will start to show bits of red when it comes close to them needing blood. If the vampire starves itself, or refuses blood and supplements with food, the eyes will turn completely red.

18) The methods humans have come up with to kill vampires are inneffective; amy cause slight wounds, or weaken the vampire to make them more vulnerable to other vampires.

19) If you create a character, please make sure to jump in at some point. I don't want characters that aren't going to be able to play.

20) If you, for some reason or other, are leaving the rp or will not be able to post for a while, pm me to let me know. We'll have something done to your character to fit whether you are leaving for good or temporarily.

21) I will send a pm to let you know when and if your character is accepted.

22) Before we actually start, I would like to get things settled in OOC; decide who's a part of which gang, their position, etc.
23) Have fun!!

24) If there are questions that belong here and I forgot, they will make their way here

"Hmmm...." The man started. "I'd love to hear one of your tales, Miss Songrose....but I wonder..." He stopped, rubbing his forearms, his fingers brushing over the marks that had been left there. "Have there been any other humans like myself? Too stupid to stay away from the vampiric race?" He asked, bearing that trademark smirk. "Or perhaps, one about a man whom fancied himself to be a vampire slayer, only to realize her was screwed by the fact that he's outmatched both physically and mentally?" He asked, rolling his shoulders.

"And perhaps....after you share a tale of your own, I'll share a tale...." He claimed, while taking a seat next to her.

I nodded. "There are always humans like that. Ignore instinct and focus on other things. They don't usually last long because the vampires they get close too kill them." Because the vampire is so willing to take a free meal. As always. "And there are always a lot more who think themselves to be vampire killers. Of course, just to be mean, the vampire won't kill them, but turn them into vampires. So then the vampire hunters are the very creatures they hate and think they're destined to kill." I shrugged. "I've never had much patience with vampire hunters; they assume the old-fashioned view of vampires; disgusting creatures that live only to drink blood. I let them live as humans, but that doesn't mean I don't give them a bit of a scare. I'll bite them, but I won't release the venom to turn them." They often tried to kill me after that for revenge for turning them, but they were always surprised when they didn't want blood, and realized they weren't vampires. So easy to laugh at. "Now...as for a tale...what sort of tale? As I said, there aren't many fight, more wandering and hiding." Though I wondered, if he asked about how I was turned, what details could be left out.

"Oh, Songrose! I'd not want to hear of a fight between you and someone. Because frankly, I'd make me want to dig them up and hit them for you!" He said with a laugh. "I'm actually interested in how you became a vampire? Was it some sort of sickness? And also, what could you tell me about the leaders of the two 'gangs'. Any information on them you could spare is more than enough for me!" He said with his growing smile.

"And don't worry. My tale will not be about fighting either. Rather, my past. And after the misery. I'd rather not go into said detail again. It's not so much of a tale as it a question.... Well, It's kind of both. But you go first!" He said, leaning forward, and propping his elbows on his knees.

Of course...how I became a vampire. I leaned back. "It's kind of a long tale, you know. This might take a while, but again, it's been a while since I've had company to talk to.

"Now...three thousand years ago we didn't quite have houses; more like huts. I lived with only my parents and older brother until he married and moved out. He did still come to visit me; quite often, actually. Now, this is a while before I was turned, but I like to go a bit farther back, you know? Well, one day every man in our little village was sent off to fight a war; which is the reason why I wasn't married when I came of age, and was supposed to be. A year or two after that, the enemy army raided the village. They were evil creatures, really. A lot of what was left of our village were killed, my mother included. I was left for dead after..." Ah, I should have laft that part out, I thought. ...Well...I supposed it would explain the mother part. I shrugged. "After they raped me. Which did leave me with a child, one that I had to try to care for on my own, too. There were really only a few of us left after that, and we tried to leave." Ah, the part I did hate so much... "I kinda took command of our tiny band of women, and a couple of them were in the exact same position I was in; a child they had to care for by themselves. I went off on my own, and that vampire...he's the one that I killed; the only one. He killed the child, and changed me, and that's the only reason I killed him."

I reached back, pulling out the sketch. I glanced at it before showing it to him. "He was only a year old, too..." I shook my head. "Asking me to give information on the leaders...what kind of information, and why? I'm not a spy; I won't relay information that will end up to any of those...trouble-makers, for lack of a better term." I wasn't going to give out information that would do anything to help the war along. They were just fine sitting at a stalemate.

Asher nodded to Song, and responded to her tale events in order she told him. It was going to be a long, long chat.... "A family? I suppose after nearly three-thousand years, you miss them ever so greatly. As for the war, my father grew up a mecenary, because he couldn't handle the life that wasn't a soldier's. So he simply became a soldier of fortune... I'm sorry that you did not wed, and even moreso that you were raped. It's a terrible feeling, that I've shared, I assure you. The feeling of their presense never comes off, no matter how hot the water, or how furiously you scrub. However, you were left a child, as I was not. I suppose that must've been a great burden for someone like you to bear. And the pressure of command is a burden as well. I'm sure you did everything in your power. And I'm glad you resolved that vampire problem...if that can be called solving." He stated in one big breath.

Asher took the sketch, and admired it. She was quite skilled at drawing, he thought, before she proceeded to semi-awnser his other question. " I suppose you're right, Songrose. This perpetual draw is by far the best choice. The war will last much longer, and there will be more casualities for each side. Husbands torn from wives, fathers from children, children from parrents. I don't believe that you need to give me any information on them." He turned back to her, eyeing her up and down. "Did you draw this from hand?" He asked her, flipping around the sketch.

"Of course I miss them; it's been a long time since I've even talked about them. No one comes around often enough to talk, let alone hear a story. Though, as I said before, maybe it was a good thing I was bitten before I had that chance. I don't mind that I never wed; just that I had the child to care for him on my own. And taking command like that...no one else was keeping a level head. I had no choice but to step up...and the child wasn't nearly as great a burden. ...And it wasn't like I killed the vampire on my own, you know. I've already told you that older vampires are stronger. I had to have help, or it wasn't going to get done." And I probably would have gotten myself killed. I was just lucky an older vampire had come along and was willing to help me, I thought. ...but, if this stalemate did continue for far too long...somone would be bund to lash out. "And yes, I did draw that myself; just something to give myself to do in spare time. I've got several copies of the exact same thing lying around here in various places. I've had too much time on my hands, you know. Why do you ask?"

"Because." He began. "It looks like the same style of the portriat of my mother, that my father kept in the den of our house. Have you drew another person?" He said, offering the photo. "The short, rapid strokes that seem to add demension- personality." He would say.

Asher smiled. "Well, anyhow, I suppose it's time for my end of the bargin. You see, my tale revolves around what I found out about my father after a few years of going through his things. He was not just a mercenary; but a "Slayer" too. One whom found mythical creatures, and killed them.... Usually, he had slim chances of actually finding one, much less killing one. But he had an edge." He said. "You are a vampire. You are skilled with magics, and have lived one hundred times my life. Surely you can identify his edge for me."

He reached behind him, and pulled the blade from it's scabbard on his back. He offered the weapon to her, the blade glowing a now wicked violet as it neared her. "Can you identify enchantments?"

I eyed the dagger cautiously. "Yes...I can identify some enchantments...that might actually hurt me, you know," I warned, leaning back a little. I didn't want that to touch me. "How did he manage to get a hold of something like this? I thought humans had lost all ability to use magics generations ago." For me to see this...it was a very old weapon. "I don't recognize the individual weapon...but I do recognize the enchantment. It was the one human used most often to keep my kind away. Sad thing was, it affected older vampires better than younger ones. Put it away, if you will." I took the picture back, though, and looked back at him. "I haven't drawn anyone else; only the same one since I lost him. ...Actually..." I thought about it. "Well...for a while, I was sketching a lot of people, trying to blend in, really. It was hard to convince people that I had to keep the curtains closed to do a proper sketch, but a lot of people didn't really care. I may have, but it was a while ago..." I couldn't even remember just how long ago anymore; it may have been a few generations, or a few years. "I don't keep track of time anymore, aside from day and night, and winter and summer. I don't count years anymore except to count my own age."

Asher nodded, and resheathed the blade. "Would you believe me if I said he said he found it? I wouldn't know exactly, but all since I can remember, he's had the blade. He told me that it was "Our Burden to bear" though, I'm still puzzled by what exactly he means. I'm sure it was something of value to know." He said, rubbing his head.

He smiled as he went on about her drawing. He rather liked for her to talk, moreso than to talk himself. He was still pent up about Songrose agreeing to walk with him when it stormed. He wanted to jump to the celling. But he controlled himself as best as the childish man could as he sat and listnened."I see.... Would you ever want to start doing that again, Songrose?" He asked her with a curious expression. She seemed to like to do it, and maybe he could put the last of his father's mercenary money to use. He had maybe enough for a medium sized house.... What was he thinking?! Asking Songrose to live with him! It was completely out of the question. He had known her for perhaps a week, if that. She would surely decline.

"Anywho, it is probably just my imagination." He would state, before looking around again. His eyes were now fully adjusted to his dark enviorments, and to someoen whom could see perfectly, his eyes were as large as dishes. He could make out nearly everything's vague forms and shapes.

He was looking around now. could he see anything? ...Probably. There was only a little light, but enough to probably make out forms. Colors, I was sure, would still be beyond him. Their burden to bear...of course. Though if he didn't understand, was that a good thing, or a bad thing. "The burden to bear...ever wonder why you're not bothered by vampire company? He wanted you to hunt vampires...maybe he though hunting vampires would be in the blood." I shrugged. ...He looked like he liked me talking, anyway...I looked at the sketch. "I suppose, if I could manage to do that and keep my being a vampire a secret, I wouldn't mind. Though it was hard enough to convince people once that I had to have the door closed. And what would I have people do; come here into the cemetary to have their portraits done? That alone would cause suspicion. Besides, it's hard enough to find the supplies for one without being able to buy them. How would I manage to get enough without others being suspicious?" It would be hard to get that going again; and I didn't have somewhere decent for them to go for something like that. They'd figure it out soon enough. ...But this man...something was going through his mind. I debated reading the thoughts going through his mind, but decided against it. He didn't need to be swamped with my own thoughts on top of his.

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

i never get bored of an rp...i just wait for someone else to post, cuz i'm usually either the last one to post, or don't have anything i can reply to, and wait for them...and it did seem to be just gthe 2 of us posting...though there were 3 other characters made...1 didn't even make 1 post...and the other 2 made 1 post each and then stopped...and which new one? the gang one? only 3 other characters so far, and i don't think any of them realize that i've even made a post there yet

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

Ah, well, I can start posting again. I just assumed you were bored of it. Although, I think we were the only ones that posted....

What about that new RP you made not too long ago? How's it working out so far?

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

...i hope this isn't dead, either...i was having fun with this one...actually, i just need something more to do...and this would have kept me busy, trying to come up with the long posts that seem to make up the entire rp...i think our shortest post here was 1 paragraph...

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

lol, yeah, i know...i think that's the longest conversation i've ever had with only one other person in a rp

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

CFd, I'm super impressed. We almost have two pages worth of banter.

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

umm...ok...but you need to submit the character normally...you submit the second character you make, if you choose to make one, here

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

This is my character.




Name: Inutero the Impaler
Age: 1000
Appearance: The tall, pale, and hansom type, his skin reflecting his personality of dungeon dwelling. His hair was obsidian black, long enough to reach his waist. He preferred to let his bangs fall over his face and to the sides with gravity. His eyes were an ice cold shade of sky blue, only complimenting his albino skin. His body was rather trim, almost starved. He was the perfect picture of beauty in the eyes of the modeling industry.
His clothing was rather unconventional however. His entire outfit was styled like a German raver in a scary dominatrix scene. Studded metal on his leather suspenders that accented his chest, pointing out his muscles, or slight lack of. They connected to a studded red belt attached to black leather chaps and a pink fanny pack, housing a few personal effects. Underneath, he hides his shame in red latex spankies, as it would be horrifying to let something so personal run free. Knowing that this all would horrify the average person, he covers his costume with a black trench coat, and a comfortable pair of red crocs.
History: Ever since the years of Christ, Inutero searched long and far for a place to rule over. He's always considered human's inferior to his race and culture. He would eventually conquer land in Israel. His infamy would start due to his sadistic qualities. He was also known for his lust, as at some point, every hour in his castle, there was lustful actions taking place.

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

that's okay...it's mostly been talking, anyway

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

Sorry, I'm taking so long with a post, I've been kind of distracted..

Will get on it as soon as I can.

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

just go ahead and sumbit your character, because it's your first; if i see anything wrong, i will send you a pm to ask you to change it...any characters you make after that first one should be posted here, and not actually submitted...still wait for the okay, though

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

Oh, good! Would you rather me post a character here in the OOC or just go ahead and submit a character?

Re: [OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

Well, this surely does sound a bit interesting! :) If it's all right, I'd gladly join this RP.

[OOC] Vampire Wars (Revival)

"Vampire Wars (Revival)"

Alright; the first kinda...died on me. so, any secondary characters you have should be posted here, not as a regular character; keeps me from getting all confused. :P And any questions you have should also be asked here. Also...before we start, I think we should use the OOC here to organize a little bit. Figure out who's in what gangs, and what they do in each gang, and who your leader is (unless you are leader, then it's figuring out who's under you).

I'll be looking at the OOC as often as possible to answer questions, but if I'm not getting to you fast enough, send a pm; I'll get to it as soon as possible. So...enjoy!
