Feathers to Ashes Discussion & Sign Up http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/role-playing-and-communal-story-building/threads/50062 EpiskeyMe It’s evidently hard to tell the difference between the divine; angels seemingly harbour no desire to commit sin, and demons craftily blend with the innocent. Why is it they can hide so well? The humans are a great source of information, it turns out. Their instincts, though often irrational, hold a great potential for unveiling the truth. They are often used as indicators. Once suspicions are at a high, the family will move. It is not uncommon for a clan of lighter or darker creatures to regularly settle from one community to the next, often leaving no trace of existence, only memories, which in time always fade into the past. But this story is not one of the past. It is one of the present, and the inevitable future which accompanies it. A story that involves love, lust, friendship, and death. Two families have chosen sanctuary in the sleepy little town of Halifax, Virginia. A rainy, next to always overcast slow-paced town where each clan hopes to guard their secrets. With a population of approximately 1300, there may be less prying eyes, but more of a forced closeness. But how close is too close? The Sullivan Family: An alluring family of demons, each member crafty, and very charming. The family has learned to ignore most destructive urges, but every now and then, when desires flare or tempers explode, sparks have been known to fly in the heat of the moment. Demons are naturally protective of their territory and see humans as little more than tools for survival. Will this other family of outsiders be welcome to these beasts? The LaBelle Family:A stunning family of angels who are very gentle, and all round beautiful. The family is almost too caring, to the brink of being naive. If there is a need for a helping hand, one of the LaBelle’s will certainly offer their assistance. Angels are a naturally peaceful race that only take what is needed from the land they live on, and they only ever eat the fruits of nature, never the flesh of an animal, unlike demons who prefer meat over plants. Will they be able to tame the Sullivans, or will they have to face their own demons? Character: Name: Gender: Age: Unique Ability: (all abilities should have a "weakness" as characters are less likely to become a "God" that way.) Personality: Appearance: Notes: Rules: 1. Be detailed in each post. Please write at least three sentences, it isn’t that difficult. 2. No god-modding. Seriously. Why would you? 3. Your character will not have a ‘second form’. They will risk banishment from the clan if they so much as show a feather of their wings or the tips of their horns to another being. 4. To abide by the NaNoWriMo rules, please keep things PG-13.

Actually, it doesn't help much at all, since this naturally pushes everyone away from him, and makes it hard for anyone to trust what he says. His subtle skills in persuasion and his way with words earned him quite the reputation of a silver tongue. Personality: Polite and skilled with words, Visere can charm information out of almost anyone. He uses his skills in lying to persuade himself that what he is doing - <em>whatever</em> he is doing - is right. Thus, with almost no conscience, and with a cold and merciless mind, armed with his tongue and his wrath, he is a dangerous enemy indeed. Luckily, most people won't know he's made them an enemy til they find a knife sticking in their ribcage. But there is another side to him, too. His silver tongue and smooth flowing words leads to natural leadership skills, wonderful in persuasion. There is a light in his eyes that cannot be doused, and he is fiercely protective of the few he loves. His polite, charming side can make a good first impression, allowing him to pull all the connections he needs. He is almost never angry, preferring instead to hold grudges and plot revenge, but will be occasionally known to snap if you push the right buttons. Appearance: With enigmatic green eyes and a cold, chiselled face, Visere is not any ordinary man. Tall and lean, with curled light-brown hair and precise features, he has the ability to be handsome and charming when he wants to. And yet his smile can turn cruel and cold, and a dangerous light can flicker in his eyes. For those who don't know him, it's easy enough to mistake one expression for the other. Notes: It would be totally awesome if he could fall in love with an angel. ...Just putting it out there :) Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:17:34 -0500 http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/role-playing-and-communal-story-building/threads/50062?page=1#forum_thread_comment_1128549 http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/role-playing-and-communal-story-building/threads/50062?page=1#forum_thread_comment_1128549 Katherine Jane Name: James Marston Gender: Male Age: 16 Unique Ability: He can create illusions. Personality: Quite and withdrawn James rarely speaks, preferring to show others what he is thinking although he will become more active if someone coaxes him out of his shell. One of the gentler demons James can sometimes be mistaken for harmless but his illusions make people wary of confronting him. He prefer books to humans. Appearance: Small with dark hair and eyes James is sticking but often overlooked. Name: Daniela Abbot Gender: Female Age: 18 Unique Ability: Daniel can step into the dreams of others and gain a sense of what they feel about certain situations and what troubles them as well as what they want from life that way. However dreams being suggestive at the best of times this is not an entirely accurate ability although it comes in handy sometimes to spot truth from lies. Personality: Daniela loves the world around her for what it is although in her navity she is easy to shock with the harsher aspects. She tries to help others but does not always know how to go about it and becomes frustrated when her attempts fail. Since she’s hardly ever angry Daniela sometimes finds herself swept along into something she doesn’t want to do but whenever her anger manifests it is far more noticeable that it might otherwise have been for its scarcity. Appearance: Slight and delicate looking Daniela pale, near translucent skin like water and dark brown, wavy hair to mid back. She has one eye the colour of pale jade and one aquamarine. Notes: She loves animals and plants.

So they've got the common powers of healing, and they can change the atmoshere of they're surroundings though it's very subtle. For instance, say Archangel was at the scene of a car accident. Everyone is frantic and crying because someone was killed. [S]he can create soothing feelings folr them, but no so much that everyone breaks out in joyous song or what have you. Guardian Angels are the same way, but they can also pick up on the thoughts of people if they choose to, if not they've learned to easily tune it out. Virtues, however, take on the powers of a certain aspect(virtue) of life. The virtue is usually some specific part of nature, i.e. fire, wind, water, flowers, etc. But others may have the virtue of kindness, or empathy or something.

Imma join. Name: Georgia Sulliven Gender: Female Age: 17/457 Unique Ability: She can conjure the black fire, an all consuming flame that cannot be put out by normal methods. Only the holy light of an angel can disperse the flames. However, this can only be created in moments of ultimate sexual pleasure, the kind that can only be acheived through an extremly rare angel/demon coupling. It has only happened once in her lifetime. Personality: Dark and deadly, she is not one you want to cross. Which is easier than you'd think. Appearance: She is extremly tall, towering over most other people, even of her own race. Her skin has a coppery sheen from much time spent in the sun training weaponry. Georgia has long red hair and green eyes with a red ring in the center. Her face is angular, and the rest of her body is muscular and well toned. Notes: She hasn't lived with the Sullivens forever, only about a hundred years. Also, she can play fiddle. Name: Johnny LaBelle Gender: Male Age: 17/493 Unique Ability: He can use music as a weapon, creating white flames from pure sound. However, this only works with a fiddle, as he can only resonate with this instrument. Personality: Kind, caring, and a music lover. His favorite band is the Charlie Daniels Band. Appearance: He's tall, muscular, and has good, rough looks. He's got sandy blonde hair, with blue eyes with gold flecks. He's got a nice, solid tan, and looks like he's been working a farm his whole life. Which he was, early on in his life.

It's just plain 'ole regular fire, but she can use it any time she pleases, although if she uses her talent for anything drawn out or crazy (like setting a warehouse on fire) she will get very faint and will sometimes black out for a minute or two. Personality: Deceptively polite. She will use her charm on anyone while she waits for the perfect time to devastate whomever she chooses. She is also smart, witty, and can hold her own in any argument or fight. Appearance: Assyria is average height with a petite build.

Appearance: Catcher's apperance, for some reason or another, very acurately depicts his personality. He has black shaggy hair that tends to fall in his eyes (which are also dark), a dark tan complexion, and sort of gives of a mysterious/dangerous vibe. _______________________________________________________________________________________ Name: Toma LaBelle Gender: Male Age: 22 Unique Ability: Being a Virtue gives him control over the wind and select animals.

She's cold and calculative, but tolerative enough if you're not on her bad side. Appearance: Thick, wavy, waistlength night black hair. Electric blue eyes that have a very slight violet tint.

If someone is mad at their boyfriend, she will feel anger and a blurry image of a guy. She mostly sees the bad things, and sometimes a little into the future, but she never knows how to prevent it.

When she finds a memory, she can read all the motives, thoughts, and feelings behind it, but she can only keep it up for so long. If she stays that it for too long, memories become jumbled together, for example, if there was a memory of getting a dog and a memory of going out for a party, the memory becomes one and she reads it as the person going out with their dog around town for a party, and thus, the memories are incredibly strange. She can tell the differeence between jumbled and real memories though. Personality: She's a generally happy person, although very emotional and dramatic, every emotion is nearly blown out of proportion with her.

She can see vision's though sometimes they are delayed. She does have ability over spirit, which involves both the dark and the light. Sometimes this can get out of control. Personality:A sweet tempered girl. She can be very sensitive though and does need to be protected by her elder sibling's. Appearance:She has long blonde hair past her shoulders and soft brown eyes that have a bit of a doe like look to them. Notes: The ability over spirit does allow her to conjure or call thing's up.

This gives her an uncanny knack for causing chaos, though on the days when she takes a break from trouble she can find it hard to control her own emotions, as the feelings of others are pressing in on her at all times. Personality: Abrasive, hot headed, and determined. Cherry will be brutally honest and terribly loud one minute, and cold and calculating the next. Her mood swings drive people away from her, and she's grown to be extremely manipulative, and is used to getting her way. Appearance: Pale and soft are the perfect words to describe Cherry. Her bright blue eyes are cold and sharp, often giving people the feeling that she is unimpressed with her. Jet black waves cascade down her slender back, and her small frame causes people to doubt her physical capabilities. However, she could probably take you in a fight. And win. Notes: Poppy can sometimes be very insecure, though you'd never know it. ---------- Name: Sybrina May LaBelle Gender: Female Age: 19 Unique Ability: Sybrina can tell the future, but only in short snippets. The visions come to her suddely- when she brushes against someone, locks eyes, day dreams- and are always hazy and hard to make out. Rarely do they ever make sense until whatever she saw happens. Personality: She's a dreamer. Sybrina would much rather be drawing in her sketchbook, or listening to classical music, than conversing with other people. She's somewhat sheltered, thanks to her angelic up bringing, and as a result can sometimes be very naive or innocent. Otherwise she plays the protective "big sister" role in the family (and to anyone else she meets.) Appearance: Tan and blonde. Sybrina is what you would imagine an angel to look like. She's slightly taller than average and has wonderful curves, though she dresses too modest for anyone to notice. Notes: She loves to sing, but not in front of other people.

Angels are given specific roles according to the sphere they're in, and that usually involves having one power. Some can control animals, some can heal, some have the Sight, some can understand all languages... But they're all relatively small, even if they're offensive powers.
