It's a Fae World

[padfoot]

Outline

 

Fae. Magical creatures that have walked among humans for as long as history has been recorded. They get their classification as creatures, humanoid or not, that can use magic to appear human. This magical disguise is also known as a glamor. It hides the less human parts of a Fae via magical metamorphosis. Most Fae already appear human but must use this spell to hid minor things like extra eyes, fangs, strange skin tone, wings, tails, so on and so forth. Within the Fae group, there are species and sub species. This is any creature that has managed to weasel their way into human legend and stories. This laziness in the Fae community back then is now why they are in hiding in present day.

 

plot overview

You are a Fae living in Detroit, Michigan. Everything is going normal in your Fae lives. You have a job, you buy groceries, or watch tv, you zone out on the computer. Everything is fine until this new drug starts surfacing on the Fae Black Market. Some pieces of pink rock dealers are calling Fae Crack, Gems, Twisted Crystals and what it is more traditionally know as, Shards. Fae begin to get reckless, showing their selves in public, leaving sloppy kills, and general havoc. IT's your choice to either join the madness or try to keep the peace.

 

Important stuff

 

The Hollow Small on the outside, bigger on the inside tavern where all kinda of Fae can go to socialize, drink, and be safe from human eyes. It is owned by a man named Zee who is older than anyone cares to measure. What people do know is that he has ears all over the bar and works with the Grey Lords. The Hollow is protected from human eyes by a very powerful spell that makes it look like a misused pawn shop. Those selling Shards or using the drug is forbidden to enter the tavern.

 

Grey Lords A undisclosed number of very old, very powerful Fae that regulate what goes on in the Fae world. Each Fae populated city as a few members that watch over it. They cover up Fae sightings, clean up strange kills for the police, execute problematic Fae and anything else to keep their kind safe from exposure.

 

Shards Strange, fragments of pink rock that can be "shot up" by passing a small charge of magic through it. After a charge, the stone turns to dust and the user experiences a surge of power and euphoria. Heavy use can result in: Loss of magical potency, inability to use a glamor, amnesia, fits of rage, temporary super strength, feral state, and nausea. The origin of the drug is currently unknown.

 

rules

-no godmoding

-no power playing

-no Mary Sue/ Garry Sues

-no hypochondriacs

-no werewolves, vampires,or experimental humans. I will allow demons and angels but it has to be a specific lesser angel or demon.

-really don't want any animal shifters at all. Getting pretty tired of seeing those

-take being hidden seriously. I am playing the Grey Lords so if your character starts threatening the secret, they will be warned then killed

-Magical artifacts are allowed, just don't make them crazy powerful or combat centered (example, a sword that shoots fire)

-have fun

Appearance: (reaper) Twilight is a frail-looking woman with an average height but small size. Her hair reaches roughly to her hips, and seems to be made out of smoke. Her skin is a pale grey, her eyes are a solid blue, which sometimes flicker to red if she is upset. Twilight wears a strapless black dress that reaches four inches above her thighs, and walks barefoot.

Appearance: Twilight's appearence as a human changes only slightly. The paranormal look to her is gone when she chooses to make herself visible.

Background:(Can be Rped)

Personality: Twilight is a generally calm and quiet creature, and doesn't talk much. It is hard to upset her, but she is downright leathal if threatened. The reaper comes off as innocent and shy, but really is anything but. She just prefers not to talk to people.

Other: Because she is a reaper, most people can't see her unless she chooses to be seen. Fae are this exception. She has a "scythe", which she can change to other weapons at will.

Question - How old are Fae suppose to be, and what do they eat/kill?

Edit - Do they help the human race, neutral, or fight against it?

Edited August 12, 2013 by car340

[padfoot]

some Fae are as old as the medieval times but most are born from the 1930's to present

Most Fae feed off humans in one way our another.

The Fae are hiding from the humans but still need them to survive.

Styles shoved the drawer back into the body cabinet and locked it. He just finished his last autopsy and was cleaning up for the night. He checked the chart sitting on his desk, "That's the third Shard related death this week. What is this stuff", he wondered out loud. He shrugged and tossed the clipboard in his paperwork pile and grabbed his coat from the back of his chair. He locked the morgue's door and head off for the Hollow for some hunting and a drink.

 

Styles walked through the threshold and felt the familiar tingle of passing through a Glamor. The interior looked as though it was decorated by Hobbits in the Shire. Every piece of furniture was iron work and deeply stained wood. He took a seat at the bar and motioned to Zee, "One", he said and the man placed a ale in front of him. He took a swig of his drink and looked at the man, "So Zee. Whats the word lately?", he asked like he always did.

"Most of it is none of your business", he answered like usual, "But there have been an increase of Shard circulation lately. It's becoming quite a popular commodity"

Styles nodded, "There has been an increase of Fae deaths related to it too", he said grimly, "How long until the Grey Lords decide that this is worth looking in to?"

The Fae only shrugged and went back to cleaning a mug. Styles sighed and rotated around on his bar stool, he was hungry and needed to find a willing donor.

 

[shadow_claw]

((Hello! I'm wondering if I would be able to make a Reaper character, since you allow Angels and Demons.))

[padfoot]

((Why the hell not What kind of reaper did you have in mind?))

[shadow_claw]

((Just your good-old reaper assigned to Detroit. You know, reaping people, cleaning up messes, preventing wrongly-timed deaths. Basically a huge threat to Fae if she catches one.))

[padfoot]

((Sure))

[67596]

Melody disappeared behind the stage with moderate disgust at the crowd she had just finished performing for. Yes she felt sorry for them to a certain extent as well, but their reactions were just pitiful. She entered the dressing room now reserved for the 'songbirds' all of whom consisted of sirens who couldn't manage to get a decent job. There were three of them: Chime, Rhythm, and Melody. Each night they dressed in shiny rhinestone encrusted dresses modeled after various colorful birds and sang for the mixed Fae and Human audience. It seemed that most of the club's patrons were simply enchanted no matter what species they were. That is, except for the ones with enough sense to bring some sort of artifact that nulled the effects of their siren song. Melody was a peacock dressed in glamorous blue and green feathers, makeup, and wearing her artifact, a necklace that hid her wings and overall more feral (if enticing) appearance. It smoothed out all of the sharp angles and made her into a regular woman for the most part. That is, except for her voice to which it strengthened and preserved despite constant use. She pulled the bright feather plume clip out of the sheet of reddish-brown hair she was currently sporting and set it on her makeup counter, looking in the mirror and contemplating how to best remove her eyeshadow.

 

Both of her 'sisters' entered the room, chatting away like larks. One was dressed in bright red, cherry colored lipstick and nails, then two black streaks over her eyelids creating a mask. The cardinal Rhythm. Then chime, her raven colored hair piled up with molten red and orange plumage that matched the breast of her costume which trailed off to charcoal in the back. She looked like a phoenix, though she was meant to be some kind of blackbird if Melody recalled the manager's conversations correctly. "Where are you going after this, Melody?" asked the blackbird. Melody looked over as she unfastened her heavy skirt of down, moving to place it on a wire Mannequin. "To the Hollow of course. I need a crowd that appreciates me every once in awhile, you know?" the other girl smiled at her kindly. "But the people here do appreciate you. They appreciate all of us. Just look at the beautiful flowers everywhere." the blackbird motioned to the vases of roses, carnations, marigolds, and the like. They were strewn all around the dated dressing room, heavily contrasting the baby blue wallpaper and dark wooden flooring. Some weren't even unwrapped and so just sat in heaps on stools, sofas, end tables, and anything else that could support them. Sometimes the maid came in and cleared them out or distributed them about the halls, but the influx of freshly cut blossoms never seemed to stop.

 

She just rolled her eyes. "I don't want humans fawning over me. The things can't even help it so that hardly counts." she removed her last bit of clothing which left her in nothing but her undergarments and a good layer of glitter as well as her face makeup. The cardinal simply shook her head. "It's hard to find jobs nowadays. Having people pay attention to you isn't the worst that could happen." Melody did acknowledge this but (very much like a disney princess) she just wanted to go out into the wild, find a scenic cliff or field, and sing to her heart's content. She pulled on her tan business skirt, green top, and a jacket. It always got a bit cold out at night. "I'm heading out now, girls."

 

They gave a brief farewell as she exited through the back door, grabbing her purse on the way. She avoided humans as much as possible when outside the club and thus hurried through what shadows she could find, moving steadily towards the hollow.

((Yay!

This "Hollow" was a place Twilight had scoped out on multiple occasions. She had no fear of any of the creatures inside, and had no need to enter until now. She had some clear warnings to state, and these were the kind of people who would get the word around. The heel of her boots clicked against solid ground, a sound she was not pleased of. Shoes were loud and made her clumsy, while walking barefoot allowed for better traction and kept you quiet. Twilight contemplated this as she stepped inside the tavern filled with Fae.

 

As soon as she entered, her form melted and re-adjusted to an obvious, non-human appearance. Normally this wasn't a big deal, but Twilight radiated a totally differet aura compared to Fae. Her very posture screamed Reaper. And she was glad this was the case. Reapers were much stronger than Fae, but could still be beaten by groups of then. The startling part was the fact Reapers rarely ever chose to adress Fae, as they were considered vermin. So Twilight's appearance was obviously for a purpose. There had been times where other reapers who worked in Detroit as well (one reaper couldn't cover a whole city) had stopped in to punish a Fae they had caught killing a human beore their time. These tended to end in death, which was cruelly ironic.

 

The chatter in the room faded at the sight of a Reaper. Some Fae grew hostile, and others shrank in their seats. Twilight calmly walked to the bar, and sat herself down in a seat beside a surpingly human-looking man. "I assume you are the owner, no?" Even her voice was eerily calm. It was more surreal than serene. "Zee, correct?" She treated everyone in a business-like manner, like most reapers did. All they tended to do was work.

[sairi123]

The petite woman hung up her apron and dusted the extra flour from her clothes. She’d finally finished listing and prepping the next day’s orders for her fae customers and was ready to close down for the night. Donning her overcoat, Maeve turned the lights off and locked the door as she left for the Hollow.

 

She entered the pub, located her favorite spot near the fireplace almost instantly, and placed her coat over the back of the chair. She poured herself a fresh cup of tea before seating herself in the comfy chair. Maeve looked over her to-do list and absently took a sip of her tea. She’d have to visit the mortician before the end of the week, as her supplies of human meats were running low, as well as call up her cousin about the order of blood bags that was due in the morning. She sighed and leaned back in the wooden chair, taking in the sounds of the Hollow as she thought.

The Hollow quieted suddenly and Maeve looked around, mildly alarmed. Her gaze fell upon a rather frail looking woman walking towards the bar and a chill ran up her spine. Instinctively, Maeve huddled closer to her table, though she kept her eyes on the Reaper.
