Background
Let's travel back in time to the Medieval Period. Yes the time where there are knights and kings and queens and no electronics
It's really just kinda old style times, Renaissance Times, not as modern. The main place is like a alter universe England but you can be a person of any ethnicity. Humans lived on earth no duh. And among them are shifters. But not just regular animal shifters. These are mythical creature shifters, or myth shifters. They look completely human, with normal hair, eyes, everything. They blend in completely with the human race, there is almost no way to distinguish if a person is shifter or not.
One distinguishing factor is that on the full moon, all myth shifters take their true form and must remain so for one day. During this day is when they are able to be identified by humans. Otherwise they just blend in with human society, some trying to live peacefully while some try to kill off humans.
Each shifter is very unique and different, and some may even control elemental powers if they are the strongest of their kind. Such as the strongest phoenix shifter can control fire or the strongest centaur may control earth. (if you have a question on what element your creatures controls, send me a note)
Myth shifters may be strong and they live for centuries, but they do die and they can be harmed by certain things. Mostly all myth shifters are weak against iron. If they are shackled with iron shackles, their powers fade and they are as helpless as a human. But depending on what your creature is, weaknesses may differ, but not by much. Mostly iron or beheading.
Your Role
The humans are living, oblivious to who they even say hi to sometimes. But there are some humans who have caught glimpses of the myth shifters and are out to kill them. You can choose between a human, a hunter, or a myth shifter. A hunter is a human who knows about myth shifters and constantly tries to chase them down to kill them. Regular humans are just your average person who is innocent and know nothing about the myth shifters to begin with. As a myth shifter, you can choose any kind of myth shifter you want, I really don't care as long as you can find a picture of it or describe it to where I can pretty much imagine what it looks like.
Chose your creature carefully.
Since it's the medieval times, there is more space in the land and therefore if your creature is a large animal, at least you'll be able to hide more. But yeah, use common sense and chose wisely. Remember you're trying to survive, might be better to chose a smaller creature.
if you have questions, write your question in your post or something so I can get back to you
don't be afraid to ask, I don't bite
Regis Characters
Reminder: Regis are those myth shifters who are the strongest of their species. They can manipulate one elemental power to the fullest. You can ask me to have a Regis Character, please only make one Regis character unless I give you the okay to make another, let other people make theirs too. I will keep a list of the Regis as I see them. If you have a Regis character but is not on the list, PM me or give me a note in your post. If you need help with knowing what element your creature can control, give me a note in your post. There can only be one Regis for each species. So if you see there is already a Regis for a creature, unless that character dies, you can't make a Regis for the particular kind of myth shifter.
*Kelpie Regis: Jae-Sun (played by me) - element Water (all forms)
*Cynogriffon Regis: Kass (played by me) - element Darkness
*Phoenix Regis: Rainesa (played by Tigersong) - element Fire
*Winged wolf Regis: Annabeth Maquis (played by Tigersong)- element Wind
*Elf Regis: Sparrow (played by Midtime) - element Earth

Listen up everyone!
I'm allowing 3 people to create wizard characters (if they want) for the major plot line.
These three wizards (or witches) will be known as the 3 Scions and are last of the sorcerers remaining, the rest were either eaten by Abaddon or hiding. Now these 3 wizards are the strongest wizards of their time. They are super strong and they are extra cautious because Abaddon is after them to kill and eat them and gain their powers. You definitely don't want that to happen.
Each wizard has their own special power:
Wizard #1 will have what is called Mirror: this powers allows the wizard to backfire a physical or elemental attack back on the original user with 3 times the power. Really deadly.
Scion of Mirror shall be Rain Vanfield played by FMA pwns
Wizard #2 will have what is called Vacuum: this power is the absolute defense against anyone. It literally nullifies and negates anything. For example a blast of fire is coming at the wizard, the wizard holds up his hand, activates his Vacuum power and poof, the blast of fire simply disappears, gone through a black hole, through a vacuum. Nothing can harm the wizard.
Wizard #3 will have what is called Bane: this is the most terrifying single power given to one wizard. It is the power to become the weakness or fear of anything. Say the wizard is up against a shifter, the wizard could literally turn his/her hand into iron or some other weakness and use it on his/her foe. It's a terrifying power.
Scion of Bane will be Ward Grenfell played by Midtime
If you wish to be one of these three wizards, please make a complete character bio and a roleplaying sample so that I may chose the winners. Try hard guys, these three wizards are gonna be a major part of this RP (if you do win I'll explain your roles to you in PMs) So if you want to try out, go get making those bios.

My Characters
Name: Jae-Sun (or just Jae for short)
Gender: Male
Age: 450 years old, looks in his 20's
Race: Myth shifter - Kelpie
Occupation: Mercenary
Personality:
Quiet, cool, stoic. He usually has a cold and emotionless look on his face but he does get angry and ticked off. It's rare for him to smile, so don't expect him to smile. But he smirks at people and scowls. The guy is rather a loner and usually only talks to people to get job offers. As a mercenary, as long as he's paid, he'll kill what he has too. Usually though he refrains from killing innocent people or myth shifters. He hates troublemakers and the bad kind of folks. He speaks quietly but his voice has a sense of authority and power in it. He uses his eyes and voice to show his emotions. Hates people standing at his back and doesn't like people touching him.
History:
His family was captured by shifters and stripped of their powers. He watched his parents get shackled with iron for so long that they could not take human form anymore. His siblings were killed for trying to run away. His parents have now become mere horses to pull the human's carts and wagons. He escaped successfully and has been able to pass as a mercenary with his extrodinary swordsmanship skills. Though he dislikes humans, he doesn't go around killing them. Rather he takes out the bad trash. Since he is a kelpie, he eats raw meat, usually animals, but sometimes humans too. But only the dead and the bad ones.
Appearance (picture optional): He is 5'11ft tall with short midnight purple-bluish hair. He has pale blue eyes and is usually seen wearing a mixture of Western and Asian clothing. Always carries two swords with him.
Human form: http://i189.photobucket.com/al…engumi%20Kitan/382580.jpg

Strengths and Weaknesses:
In human form he has unparalleled swordsmanship skills, he uses two swords, sometimes one, to fight and is also a really strong hand-to-hand fighter, martial arts master. Can manipulate water in his human form too.
In kelpie form, since he is the strongest kelpie, he can use the power of water, all three forms of water too (gas, liquid and solid forms). His horse form is that of a larger than average pure black horse with black eyes. Strong and muscular, his horse form is beautiful and he can walk on water or swim in water. Also if he wants, he can make his body like water and if anything hits him, it goes right through him. He can also dissolve his body into water and reform somewhere else. Weakness against electricity, iron, and of course, cutting off his head.
----------------------------------------------

Gender: Female
Age: 22
Race: Human

Personality:
Cold and calculating but still has some compassion. She understands and shares of her father's hatred for shifters but doesn't kill all the time. She actually only kills those she finds that are threatening humans or are doing bad deeds. If she sees shifters that are harmless, she might leave them alone. She really dislikes shifters that eat human flesh. She's a strong lady and is annoyed at men who think that she's weaker. Tough and independent, she can take down shifter and humans alike. Shows kindness to those to deserve and need it. Selfless she protects the innocent from evil shifters and humans too. At times she's questioned her father's obsessive hatred of shifters. She wants to understand the shifters more.
History:
Her family was attacked by myth shifters once and only her and her father survived. She was only 10 years old at the time and her father is still recovering. He taught her that myth shifters were evil and had to be killed. She's been trained to distinguish some shifters from humans and kills them mercilessly though sometimes hesitates. Her father is a hater of shifters and will kill them at all costs.
Appearance (picture optional): She is a tall lady at 5'7ft with white blonde hair that comes to her shoulders. Dresses in clothing that she can easily move in. She has lovely green eyes a short broad sword with her and some throwing needles.

Is very skilled in combat. Can use a sword like a man and is very accurate at her throwing needles. At times will use a bow and arrow. Is trained by her dad to fight hand to hand and can beat a man easily. Quiet and stealthy, she can pounce on a person from behind and they wouldn't know it. Unafraid but not stupid either, she's cunning and intelligent.
She's got a soft spot for kids and kindhearted women, no matter human or shifter. She hates people breathing on her neck and has a very sensitive nose.

And he sometimes eats humans too. He terrorizes the towns and people at night and in the daytime, talks around and bothers people too, scouting out who to kill next. He laughs at people's pain, a sadist and cares for no one but himself. He's quick to anger and might just bite your head off if pissed off enough. Rude and unmannered.
