Ancient Enemies and Forbidden Feelings [Numbers + Rikaya][M]

[Numbers]

In Medieval times, the balance between the human world and the fey world was equal. Humans were aware of the fey and the fey, for the most part, left the humans alone. However, due to rising population among the humans, so did certain tribes among the fey world in response. As the fey tribes grew in power to match the humans, the humans started to fear the fey world more and more. Eventually leading to the establishment of a holy order among the humans. This order began to gather rare materials from both the human and fey world in order to craft weapons that were infused with the souls of the fey. These unique powerful weapons allowed them to weaken the growing fey tribes in different ways. When these weapons were created, the fey tribes retaliated declaring war on the holy order. The war waged for a hundred years before the fey finally defeated the order. However, in order to prevent the fey tribes from getting the weapons and returning their powers back to them, a lone high ranking officer in the order was sent to leave for Asia where he could hide the weapons. As hundreds of years go on, the different tribes settle back down, thinking that the enemy is destroyed as they learn to live with their new weaknesses. All the while, the remaining order officer passes down the teachings of the order through the family, working to eventually rebuild different connections, resources, and contracts with the different nations of the world.

Now after hundreds of years the order has returned and began the hunt once again to destroy the fey world. Will the tribes that stood against the order before reunite against the ancient enemy? Or will the problems of a new world stop pacts of the old world from surviving?

[Numbers]

Name: Valeria Zurbank
Age: 1572 (appears to be 25)
Sex: Female
Appearance: https://static.zerochan.net/Krul.Tepes.full.1888042.jpg
History: Valeria was born before the human crusade against the fey but does not remember much of the events before the war. She mainly grew up in the war and as part of the royal family, her job was to fight in the war as one of the generals. As she learned to fight and survive she eventually switched from being a general to the commander of a special forces team that would be sent on the close to impossible missions. Because of these missions, she earned a nickname among the enemies and allies of being the vampire queen. Partially because she was the princess and expected to become the queen of the clan eventually.

After the war ended she was trained to rule instead of to fight. However, switching her way of living wasn't something that she would be able to do overnight. Because of this, she continued to take on the job as an agent of the clan, taking out any target that was assigned to her, and completing the different jobs that came across her table.

As the era of man came into the modern era she started to train to become the heir of the company that the clan had formed. For now, though, she continues to work as an agent. Sometimes that requires her to intervene in a human war to help make sure the war goes in certain directions, other times it requires her to start a war. Some days she kills innocent people simply because they saw too much, and other times she killed the guilty who knew too much.

Other: Since she was raised before the war and primarily trained and taught during the war, she is an exception combatant when it comes to war. She's a natural killer compared to her clansmen. She is ready to fight whether the battle is psychological, emotional, or physical. She isn't afraid to use her looks to trap people or to use the other gifts or abilities that naturally come from being rich and being an immortal noble vampire. Despite serving as an agent of the clan, is allowed to remain among the royal family class since she became an agent through the hunter war.

History of the Vampire Clan:

For a long time, the clan of the vampires was broken into many different smaller clans known as the noble families. Each noble family would have around ten noble family members, and anywhere from twenty to a hundred lesser members. As the human threat started to grow though, the twelve noble families came together to make one clan. The strongest clan of the twelve became known as the royal family, while the other eleven families stayed as noble families.

With this new merge and newfound strength, the clan was ready for war as they now stood united. However, they knew that they would need allies so they made alliances with the other major clans at the time. When the war was over, the alliance broke between the different major clans. To the vampires though, the war was never really over, however. Like the other clans, they had learned of the magical artifacts that the fairies were forced to create for the hunters. In order to someday find the artifacts, with the hope of finding them before the other clans, they decided that it was time for the age of vampires to become a myth. As they did so, so did the other nonhumans follow. It was the last major agreement between the clans that in order to prevent a dangerous war from coming back to their doorstep, they would need to disappear.

As such the vampires worked tirelessly to become a recognizable and powerful human family over the ages. Eventually, as the modern age took over, the vampires had built themselves a major company in the world of man. Their company would research and produce different forms of medicine for the humans to use. Acquisition and scouting of new forms of plants were easy for the vampires since they were able to survive a considerable amount of dangerous stuff compared to the humans. All workers in their company were lesser vampires while the noble families lived off of the money of the company as board shareholders. The royal family was considered the main ones in charge as the leader of the royal family was called the king or queen and was recognized as the CEO of the company. In order to ensure that one family member could rule as the CEO past a normal human lifespan, the CEO, and the board members faces were kept hidden from the public and only the names would be published, with new names coming up as time went on.

The Order of Michael (Hunters)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name: Etmere Roloft

Age: 26

Sex: Male

Appearance: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/df/7e/72/df7e72e6a3c909853a701ac6e950c1e8--warehouse--attractive-men.jpg

https://i.redd.it/oote4yg6srxz.jpg

History: Etmere was born to an ancient secret order of humans who hunt down the different mythical creatures called nonhumans. Since birth, he has been raised to fight these creatures but to also blend in. Taught how to live a double life as both a normal person and an agent of the order of the Michael. When he was born he was given to a family who knows nothing of the order so that he could be raised in a normal life. Once he turned five his family was approached by hunters posing to be priests who wanted Etmere to go to a Catholic school. His parents agreed, seeing it as an excellent opportunity to get a Catholic education but also a free private quality education.

At the school though, he was not only trained in the same thing as the other normal students but he was also enrolled in the special classes that taught him the truth of the world, and how to serve the order. When he turned ten he was given a test that would decide which path in the order he would take. The results of the test moved him to the area of being a hunter, which was considered one of the greater paths. Since the test he was trained in combat, how to fight the nonhumans as well as how to fight humans. His education shifted to turn into someone who would be suited to become a federal agent of the united states.

When he turned 18, he joined the FBI and was trained to be a field agent. The division he joined was a special division that was only filled with and led by hunters. Once he turned twenty-three and finished his five years of advanced training he was assigned to spend three years working as a normal FBI agent with practice on his advance training so that he could get used to the job and establish proper lies and covers to give to his normal friends and family.

Now that he is 26, he has been assigned his first partner, to begin the missions of scouting and hunting nonhuman creatures.

Other: As a hunter, he has been trained to use both a ranged weapon and a close-range weapon. His ranged weapon of choice is a long-distance sniper rifle, while his close-range weapon is a standard issued silver sword. His parents were originally hunters but were killed fairly recently after he was born, leading him to be adopted by a family who know nothing of the order.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

History of the Order of Michael: The Order of Michael which was founded with the name of the Arch Angel Michael, the Arch Angel of Protection. They were given this name by the current Pope at the time. They were founded in the year 592 AD. Their purpose was to protect humanity and her interests from the monsters of nonhumans. In order to do so, The Order of Michael spent hundreds of years as holy warriors gathering resources for the church and working with the fairies to create items of power that could help to subdue the other races if they ever decided to attack humanity.

The fairies convinced that the items of power were simply tools for defense, agreed to make the tools and finished the construction of the tools for each of the most dangerous races in 1052. With the items of power, The Order of Michael set out on their secret plan. They activated the items of power in the year 1095 and started the extermination of the major nonhuman races. In order to justify why they were killing people, the pope saw it as the perfect time to also attack an enemy of the church and called upon soldiers to initiate the Crusades. Upon the initiation of the war, The Order of Michael was made known to humanity and fought the nonhumans while the Crusades were underway. The war between the humans and nonhumans lasted 157 years, ending in 1252 with the defeat of The Order of Michael. Seeing that the defeat was coming, the order sent one of its high-ranking soldiers to the east, to hide and reform the order.

With the war over, the soldier started the work of gathering the resources to rebuild the order in secret. Upon hearing the news that the nonhumans races were going to disappear from the memory of existence and allow themselves to simply become myths, the order decided to do the same thing for the human memory as well, only allowing their existence to be known by the pope, who locked all evidence of their existence in his ever increasing library beneath his holy church, a library only the pope could access, allowing each pope to know the true threat and the weapon that he possesses.

Upon the year 1932, the order adopted what is now considered its standard practice and procedures. In the year 2012, the order began the hunting of nonhumans. However, they worked in a way that allowed them to continue to operate in secret and under the radar of the major nonhuman races, making it look like the kills were either accidental or the person simply went missing (and leaving a note saying the member actually left to go live in new lands to explain why they disappeared.)

Side Terms/Explanations of the Order:

-Children born between two hunters are raised by the hunters and the order. If there isn’t enough hunters or children being born to the hunters, children are recruited from a young age by giving parents the chance to send their children to a private Catholic school for free. Sometimes, if a hunter’s child's parents are killed, they will be adopted as a baby by people who know nothing of the hunters.

-Large weapons that would cause confusion or concern among the general public are hidden by special fairy magic that was taught to the order during their original formation and passed down through the reconstruction of the order. This hides anything from large weapons (assault rifles, bows, sniper rifles, swords, battle axes, etc.) to large tools (axes, drills, hunting gear, etc.). The gear is still carried on the hunter, but they’re invisible and incorporeal until the hunter grabs it and pulls it from its location.

-Age 5 is when a child starts going to the Catholic schools. Whether they were recruited secretly from an ordinary family, implanted in a family, or already a part of the order with its hunter parents. There they are taught like regular children while taking special elective classes/clubs to teach them about how the world truly is and how to keep it secret from anyone who isn’t in the order. At age 10, they are given a test to determine their role in the order. This can be anything from being a simple scribe to a soldier, to a priest. Depending on which role they are given, they spend 8 years learning normal education, plus the education needed for their role. At 18, they go and start work in a job that fits the role they were given. Whether it’s working for a company that is secretly run by the church or working for the church itself, they then receive further training at the job.

-Advanced training is the training they receive to help them progress and prepare them to work their role to an efficient standard. Each role and job have different amounts of training that are needed, different needs, and different timetables before the person of the order are ready to serve. Whether they serve independently with someone checking up on them to make sure they are okay and to hand out new tasks, or working in tight groups with other people, is dependent on the experience and the job.

More information to come as characters are made and the roleplay progresses.

=>Werewolf<=

Name: Kaden Walker
Age: Was turned at the age 26, real age to be revealed
Sex: Male
Status: Recently became alpha in his pack
Appearance:
https://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af240/bamarre1/89bb5487-cc8a-422b-903b-f63b41986081_zpshr3gub7n.jpg
History: Kaden has a complicated past which he prefers not to talk about. There was a lot of loss in his personal life and one particular tragedy led him to become a werewolf. For the first several years after his transition, Kaden remained a lone wolf by choice. He held a lot of resentment towards the alpha male that turned him and refused to join the pack. Grieving his own loss of humanity and the other tragedies which have struck his life, changed Kaden, and some may say that it changed him for the worst. After spending several years alone, the alpha that turned him seeked him out and offered him his spot as the new alpha male. Kaden’s natural reaction was to resist but eventually he decided to take his offer, not because the dying wolf has asked him to, but for his own personal reasons.

Being new to the pack and in a leadership position, Kaden has his work cut out for him and a power struggle to control. Not exactly being leadership material, Kaden is glad to have Denver, his beta, to help coach him through it. That is….when Denver doesn’t try to take the alpha position for himself, or at least when he makes jokes about doing it. For now, Denver is the only one in the pack Kaden trusts enough.

Other: Ever since he became a werewolf, he has been determined to uncover the secrets that seemed to linger around his family’s past. Kaden has hunter blood in him but the hunter instincts are suppressed by his werewolf side and he has no knowledge of him being part hunter. His family was able to get their hands on parts of a map which can help determine the location of one of the ancient artifacts, given time, Kaden will discover this information.


=>Werewolf background/Other information<=

History
The werewolf race is one of the oldest species to walk the Earth, dating back as far as the Middle Ages. The origin of werewolves has been speculated for centuries, but the most common tale that is told, is that the Original Alpha was created when a man committed a hanious crime and was punished for his sins by being made a slave to the moon. Cursed and alone, the Original Alpha began to expand his lineage and create more werewolves. This expansion has gone on for centuries since and well into the modern era. No one knows if the Original Alpha is still alive.

Classes
Pureblood Werewolves - originate from two werewolves having an offspring

The Bitten - become werewolves once bitten by another werewolf

Factions
Industrialists - wolves who try to blend into society.

Usually stay in one place once they settle.
Run in smaller packs
Better maintained/better trained
Alphas get tattooed to show their status but only when the status has been earned through special rituals



The Nomads - wolves who tend to migrate from place to place.

Are more vicious and dangerous
Run in larger packs
Great survivalists
Nomadic Alphas undergo scarification to show their status also when the status has been earned



Transformation Phases
The controlled phases
Phase 1 - eye color changes to yellow. Some eye color variations are possible depending on gene mutations. Typically a sign of anger or frustration.
Phase 2 - eye color change and fangs appear
Phase 3 - eye color change, fangs, claws. Third phase gives them a boost in their abilities.

Non-Cntrolled Phase
Full human to werewolf transformation. Werewolves take on the form of a wolf which is much larger than a normal wolf. This transformation is painful and can last for hours if the werewolf lacks experience or is a new werewolf. Happens every full moon. Loss of control over inhibitions and emotions. Industrialists have protocols in place to help them get through a full moon without hurting anyone. This phase is when a werewolf is the strongest. Can withstand certain injuries and harder to put down.

Other Information
Werewolves are most known for holding down physically demanding jobs. The two most popular industries for werewolves are the lumber industry and construction. Not only were werewolves good at handling activities that required high stamina, the physical aspects of their work kept them distracted from their emotions. Especially on an encroaching full moon. With the artifacts of power being activated, the werewolves had little control over their transformations. The moon was their king and the wolves were his servants. A werewolf was dangerous on a full moon because one, they did not have a choice but to transform and two controlling their emotions was difficult. A werewolf that you knew as a person may be entirely different in their werewolf forms.
Thus, their line of work kept them focused on something else other than thirst to kill.




`~The Hunter~`
Name: Katja Ivanova
Age: 25
Sex: Female
Appearance: https://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af240/bamarre1/1b9e0845-b075-44f6-853a-3deee4009d73_zps6cd1f8ga.jpg
History: Katja was born in Rostov, a small town outside of Moscow. She had a good childhood and was raised by two normal parents. Growing up she was a fairly athletic child. She could climb trees and fences easily and could outrun most of her friends in races they had in their neighborhoods. Her parents knew from an early age that Katja needed to go to a school where she would excel.

At the age of 5 Katja's parents discovered a Catholic School which promised the result of exceptional students and the school itself seemed to take an interest in the girl. Once her talents were realized, Katja rose through the ranks in her combat skills, learning different fighting styles and wha suited her best. Close/hand-to-hand combat became her specialty. Since Katja was smaller and more agile she grew into someone who was well suited for assassination missions and upon completion of her Catholic School studies, she moved on to work for private contractors who hired her as a hit-woman. She spent years of perfecting her assassination techniques, how to blend in with society, and move quickly and quietly. Working as an assassin gave Katja the ability to visit many different countries and pick up a few languages along the way.

Eventually her work took her out of Russia and into America where her services were required in another field. The field of hunting nonhumans.

Other: Her weapons of choice are hand held blades and a crossbow. Sometimes uses hand guns but chooses her weapons depending on the mission.
