----- Intro to the setting
Time is a precious thing. It is limited, and can not be regained once it is lost. While the past may repeat itself, nothing will ever truly be the same- only similar. Hence why the world is ruled by time. Everyone spends their life trying to make the most of their time or trying to find a way to preserve it-or themselves. Many long for the elusive immortality, but none have succeeded....or so we thought.
Immortals do live among us, in human forms. They live as vampires- powerful, immortal creatures who feast on the blood of the living. All these years they kept to the shadows, hiding in our midst without us ever knowing. It was only in the last decade that they've revealed themselves. Over the years humanity has obsessed over and romanticized vampires- and a few finally decided to behave in such a way. This led to more and more of them revealing themselves, and eventually to the integration of their species into our society. Their population is smaller than ours, but their abilities make them far superior. Yet the mice live among the snakes as if there was nothing to fear.....for the most part. As when every predator lives beside its prey, incidents are bound to occur- and they do. frequently. But there's no going back to how things were before, not anymore. There's merely precautions that can be taken. Keep doors and windows locked. Avoid being outside at night. So on a so forth. None the less, with the fact that immortality is now obtainable, there are some who hunt for it. Then there are those who frequent the clubs. These 'clubs; are much like those gone to for dancing- only there's more danger involved. These specific clubs were made for vampires to find those who are willing to be fed upon.Others are addicted to the danger much like some people are to adrenaline, or just acting out. A very few are simply curious as to what vampires are truly like. After all, most people don't see the true natures of vampires. It's illegal for them to drink blood publicly, even from a bottle. Even more so, it's strictly forbidden for a vampire to feed from the source. It helps to prevent the creation of new vampires, according to the authorities. Not like that really stops them- they can't really be controlled, after all. Since when has the wolf ever listened to the sheep? They're merely coexisting to make their lives easier- they could easily overthrow us if they truly wanted to. Anyways, these forbidden actions is why these clubs are so hard to find- because they're illegal. If they are discovered, they're shut down immediately, but it doesn't take long for a new one to pop right up.
Despite all this, time moves ever forward. Some People try to live life as normally as they can. A few try to return things to how they used to be. Some try for immortality. Others want the danger. None the less, the streets aren't safe. The world is changing by the day. The reign of humanity is spiraling towards the end. The only questions that remain are, what will you do with the time you have left, and what will the future bring?
Spoiler: ---plot----
It's 20XX, about fifteen years after the integration of vampires into society. Society has relatively adapted to their presence, but there's still plenty of issues. A group of friends from a vampire-less region have decided to travel hours away from home for summer break to a big city thriving with both the undead and the living, in order to check out what it's like to live around vampires. Curiousity, as fate would have it, lead them to hear of a rumored club: Scarlet Ice- one of the biggest vampire clubs around, but also one of the most well hidden. Authorities have tried to find it, but none have succeeded.
What will happen to this group once they reach their destination? Will they live? die? turn? anything is possible. Will they remain friends, or go their separate ways? All remains to be seen as their story begins, the threads of fate unraveling as they race torwards their destiny.

[color=#800000]In terms of strengths and weaknesses----
The strength of each area varies from one to another. Some will heal quicker then others, but may not be as strong. Another might have more speed but not as nice reflexes. All are possessed, but like anyone else, talents vary. Simply put, however, they all retain enhanced speed- reflexes- senses- and healing. Users may also give their vamps one other ability of their choice. (ex. fire, ice, telekinesis, shadow-travel, etc.).
As for weaknesses, a hawthorn or rosewood stake to the heart can kill them- sunlight- and decapitation can only kill them if the body is then burned.
Older vampires can develop more sun resistance, but even then can only be out in the sunlight so long. Younger vamps, at most, can bear a few minutes before they begin to burn. New vamps can not be in the sun without the proper protection- though they tend to be out mostly at night as a precaution.
Meanwhile, rosewood/hawthorn wood and wild roses can help ward them off, but it can not entirely stop them. ( unless the wood, as earlier stated, is in the form of a stake.
And in terms of the turning process----
On occasion, vampiric blood will enter the human bloodstream, causing a human to develop a sickness. This sickness is known as ' The Kiss of Death". It can be recovered from, but few do. It can take up to eighty days for the human body to rid itself of the toxins. In the meanwhile, it will be increasingly harder for the victim to restrain from consuming human blood. As long as said victim doesn't taste human blood, however, they can recover. If tasted, death can occur within an hour, and they can return as a vampire as quickly as fifteen minutes or as late as a day later. There are a few stages prior to the consumption of human blood, and they progress to stage four as quickly as 24 to 48 hours. However, it does not matter at what stage human blood is tasted- even if the victim tastes it in stage one, they will still become a vampire. The only way to avoid becoming a vampire is to restrain from tasting human blood until the illness is completely out of the victims system.
stage one- you will noticed your senses are sharper, and you can run faster than most. Likely you are at this stage currently. In stage two you will notice your pupils have become more cat-like, and your canines sharpe enough to pierce skin but not yet fangs.
. In stage three you will begin to be able to smell blood and tell when someone is bleeding. Every now and then you might cling to someone who is bleeding, out of vampiric instinct. Self control goes in and out at this point.
Stage four is where you will begin to desire blood, and will likely attack anyone who is bleeding. At this point self control is very rare, and very limited.

Username;owl0430 Character species; human Character name;Akemi Shiko Character Age;18 Character Gender;female Character Sexuality;straight
Positive traits;agile, giving, and intelligent. Negative traits;overlycautious, and a slight pushover. Personality; Despite her frail appearance, she is rather agile, and she's rather intelligent. Well, to some extent anyways. She's better at observing things and solving puzzles of sort rather then an all-around intelligence. However, she's overly cautious, and has trouble speaking her mind and opinions.
Background;
[i] Life is a fleeting thing- it begins one moment, and is ending in the next. One's whole existence goes by in a flash. One night, however, everything changed. When she was three, the vampires were integrated into every day society. They were everywhere on TV- from lifestyle shows to reality TV, and attacks all over the news. She, however, had never seen a vampire. While the majority of places had their fair share of vampires, there were a few places that remained vamp-free for whatever reason. Mainly it was sunnier, hotter places like Florida and Texas, but there were other places as well. Her and her group's home town had happened to be one of those places. However, for summer break, they all decided to travel far from home to a big city, filled to the brim with vampires and humans alike. Personally, she just wanted to see one in person, to see if they really had the scarlet red eyes that television portrayed. None the less, she was a little scared. After all, they say curiosity killed the cat. crush
Username;owl0430 Character species; vampire?? Character name;Adrian " Duality" Himura Character Age;18 Character Gender;male Character Sexuality;straight Positive traits;clever, witty, logical, sweet, Negative traits;clever, sly, mischievious, two-sided, flirtatious, dangerous. Personality/background;
It was many years ago that he was turned into a vampire. He had been out for a night on the town with the guys, all trying to impress the ladies of town. When the group split for the night, however, he heard a scream pierce through the silence, and quickly ran after it. Upon reaching the source, he saw the body of a woman, lying listless on the ground. Above her was a man he appeared to be around his age, blood coating his face and clothing. Next thing he knew, the man lunged at him. He awoke around twelve hours later back at his home, thinking everything had just been a dream. When he looked in the mirror, all hopes of it having been a dream were gone. His pupils were cat-like, and he sported a set of fangs where is upper canines should have been. It was about a day after that when he consumed human blood, and an hour after that when he died. He wasn't sure how long it took for him to wake back up, but when he did, the man from the night everything happened was there. That man became his mentor, teaching him how to adapt into this new life. Once he was able to take care of himself, they parted ways. Now he lives in the city, spending most of his time solvings puzzles or at the local clubs. Though the change he went through years ago affected more than just his apetite- it affected his personality too. He used to be rather sweet, quite the charmer with a hint of naivety and shyness. Then he was turned, and his personality changed to being bolder, more confident, and a heck of a lot more flirtatious and mischievous. Sometimes during the daylight hours, his old personality can show through, but at night it's almost completely the new personality.

▽ history;; Ruhail's parents were born in Jeddah, and moved to America when they had their first kid. Ruhail was born into a Muslim family, so he's used to at least getting weird looks. Ruhail did reasonably weel enough in school, and after he graduated high school, he got a job in the mail room of a local office building. He got into a car wreck, resulting in his leg scar.

While it looks intimidating the story behind it is unfortunately mundane, an accident. ▽ tattoos;; Nothing but a eastern European Pagan originating from the early medieval Poland region. A reminder of his heritage and who he really is. It is centered over his heart.
▽ + traits;; Confident and ambitious. He is well educated. He is handsome, slender but clearly does some toning exercises. ▽ - traits;; Can be deceitful if it suits him, lustful women are his weakness, can be arrogant, and he smokes. ▽ likes;; He is a man of many interests. His favorite indoor activities are reading and building computers. His favorite going out activities are anything involving good music. His major vices are drinking beer and smoking, that is if you don’t count his lustful side. If you are then you can add dancing and other activities with the ladies to the top of that list. ▽ dislikes;; Getting stuck in traffic. People disrespecting his friends. ▽ history;; He comes from a long line of wealth people who have just gotten more wealthy as the years have passed. He falls under the resented category of people who has very few worries in life past, present, and hopefully future. He doesn’t flash his wealth as much as possible, though he isn’t opposed to sharing the wealth with his friends. For the most part as long as he doesn’t do to anything off the rails his family leaves him to his own devices. It isn’t that they don’t expect anything from him merely that he has never given them any reason to doubt him.

all accepted~ Once i get my forms up, I think we'll try for one more person to join before starting the rp.
And the vampires are essentially stuck at a certain age ( the one at which they died), so feel free to make them a few centuries old if you wish, or they could also be people who were just turned. up to you.

Not worried about it either way. If you think waiting will make for a better RP I don't mind waiting.
Did anyone want to have any crushes or anything at the start with either two of my characters?

I believe the rp will be fine either way.
Romance wise I believe I am going to simply see how the different characters interact before deciding on a potential partner.
On that note, who wants to start? Should it be me, a proper response won't be up till after 2:50pm EST.
