Goodbye everyone! Thank you for playing, but the thread has died. Maybe I'll make a new and improved one in the future, but for now, see you later!
Also, I'm sorry, but I will not give individual permission to another user for remaking, as I am still in ownership of the book this is based off of.

Namyre, Meredith (Mere) Gold

  Username: Namyre
  Vamp's Name: Meredith Gold
  Gender: female
  Backstory: I had a good life. Middle-class money, loving family, good friends; I didn't ask for much. But I lost everything the night I got jumped. He slit my throat, I thought, as my vision went dark, until I woke up in a castle-like building; tired, sore, and starving hungry.

AsterTheBeastmaster, Annie Ashwood

• Spoiler

  Username: AsterTheBeastmaster
  Vamp's Name: Annie Ashwood
  Gender: Female
  Backstory: "I don't want to be a vampire." I told him that over and over again. He wouldn't listen. He never listened. He was selfish, manipulative... Controlling. If I had known that he wanted to keep me forever, and if I had known what he really was, I would've run. I should've run. But I had nowhere else to go.
  I... Did terrible things, after turning. It isn't glamorous, being a vampire. It isn't fun to starve for blood I never wanted. There's no thrill or glory in watching life fade from someone's eyes. It wasn't a satisfying revenge when I killed the man who turned me and skulked about the world, wondering if I was to be hunted down and slaughtered.
  And I feel no safety or kinship in my fellow vampires now. We are savage beasts. We hunt. We kill. We hide ourselves away from our own predators...
  I don't want to live like this. I don't want to die like this.
  I just want my humanity back.

FearlessFlight, Ezekiel (Zeke) Miles

• Spoiler

  Username: FearlessFlight
  Vamp's Name: Ezekiel (Zeke) Miles
  Gender: Male
  Backstory: My life hasn't been perfect, I was raised by a low income family and got a crappy education. Me and my twin sister stuck it out though, we had each other and though I started working in the kitchen at a local cafe while my sister waitressed because our parents couldn't afford everything we needed on their own at the age of thirteen I was happy for the most part. I had my family, most importantly my sister, Olivia (I called her Boo) she was my other half of me and I felt confident we could make it through anything so long as we had each other. That changed when she was murdered. She was coming home from an extra shift she had picked up and just never made it home. The police found her body three days later in an abandoned complex, no one was ever arrested. This event caused me to pick up on some unhealthy drinking habits. It was as I stumbled home from a bar that I was mugged and beaten, left for dead. The vampire who turned me took me in. He helped a lot the first few days with acclimating me to my new life but he had enemies of his own. We were ambushed while sleeping and he was killed while I was drug taken. I spent what seemed like an eternity on his torturing table. He sliced me open every chance he got, relishing in my screams. Had I been there any longer I would have lost any sense of humanity I had left. Luckily for me I was rescued and attempts at rehabilitation were made but I have never fully recovered. I scream during the night and am depressed a lot. It is tough for me to talk and I wear long sleeved shirts and jackets so people can't see my scars. I miss Olivia every day and every now and then the sadness drives me to have fits of rage. I guess you could call me damaged goods.

ParadiseSeeker, Elian

  Username: ParadiseSeeker
  Vamp's Name: Elian
  Gender: Male
  Backstory: I am older then I let on, so Ive been through a lot. I had lived a simple childhood, in the medieval times actually. I grew in the house of a king, I was spoiled and foolish until I turned thirteen. That was when I began training for war that we all knew was coming. By the time I was nineteen I had finished training and met a girl named Rosemary. We fell in love, so I promised her the riches of the castle when I came back from war.
  But that night, I discovered the real her. She was a vampire, and using her tricks she made me one too. My fathers knights had heard my struggles and came to my aid but it was too late I was bitten. No one knew, so I struggled for a long time. Then I took the throne, it was a terrible decision but I had no choice.
  Lets just say, a year later the kingdom had been destryord, I had killed many and the ones that lived were vampires who killed with me. I am now in the history books of schools, known as "the great killer" vampires are not meant to be on this word. If you meet one I pray for your life.
  Appearance: Elian stands 6'3 with scars across his body.

alyssawillome, Emillia Riene

• Spoiler

  Username: alyssawillome
  Vamp's Name: Emillia Riene
  Gender: female
  Backstory: Emillia was born blind in Scotland during the dark ages, being blind during this time was obviously not something you wanted to be. She was unable to marry then and was cast on the streets to be a beggar when she was old enough to be married, which was much younger than. During her time on the street she met an older gentleman in need of help, despite her state she aided him best as she could before he left.
  A few weeks later she became ill and was surprised when he returned and promised to help her, once he changed her into a vampire she found being blind easy, her hearing is as powerful as a bats and she gets around without the help of a cane.
  Appearance:
  Her pupils are a milky grey color since she is infact blind.

The story of Lilith, our Mother.

• Spoiler

  Read closely, for this is a true story. You may learn something that could change your views.
  
  In the beginning, God created two beings from the earth: Adam, and Lilith. God insisted that Lilith should be inferior to Adam, but she disagreed. She refused to be subservient to Adam, reasoning that they both came from the same place and therefore they should be treated as equals. Lilith was then cast from Eden, and this is why God created Eve From Adam's rib, so she, and therefore the female population, would be subordinate to him, the man. This made Lilith angry, so she began feeding on God's precious humans and turning them into her own children in defiance.
  
  Lilith is the true Mother of vampires, but no, she did not Turn every one of them. The Turned have their family tree, and then they have their vampire bloodline from who Turned them. Sometimes they don't always know who Turned them at first, but there is a "residue" in their blood that does identify who Turned them.
  
  Lilith was not a demon, she was just depicted as such since she believed in gender equality(sound familiar?). Many people do not know the whole story, and thus they shun those who believe men and women should be equals, because "God said otherwise."
  
  Lilith is a symbol of anti-patriarchy. To men, she is perceived as the Succubus, a female demon believed to have sexual intercourse with sleeping men. To women, she may be presented as the "devourer of children", since she stole away babies to make them her own children of the night.
  
  In modern times, the story of Adam's unjustifiable dominance is reinforced by the ad and fashion industries' efforts to increase competition and deep-seat insecurity among women.
  
  Did anything here surprise you? It's okay if you didn't know; society disregards this side of the story on purpose. Go forth and do not discriminate, for Lilith is not evil, and you are loved not matter what's between your legs.

What is a Hunter?

• Spoiler

  The vampire hunter is the enemy. Do not engage if at all possible. If engaged, use defensive moves only. Do not kill, or more will come in his place. Their weapon of choice is a silver-tipped wooden stake.

Fact or Fiction?

• Spoiler

  PM with more suggestions.
  
  Fact:
  • Adrenaline-filled blood tastes better.
  • Sick/ drunk people taste bad.
  • Animal blood does not taste good, vamps can't live off of it forever.
  • Fangs grow from the canines.
  • Strong sunlight hurts vamps' eyes.
  • Cat-like night vision.
  • Vamps age at a rate of 10 human years = 1 vamp year.
  • Cats are inexplicably attracted to vamps.
  • Holy symbols block entryways/ guard buildings and burn to the touch.
  • Pure silver does burn the skin painfully.
  
  Fiction:
  • Vamps are not immortal; just very resilient.
  • Garlic is not poison.
  • Holy water is not poison.
  • Vamps do not need to be invited into homes.

Username: AsterTheBeastmaster

Gender: Female
Backstory: "I don't want to be a vampire." I told him that over and over again. He wouldn't listen. He never listened. He was selfish, manipulative... Controlling. If I had known that he wanted to keep me forever, and if I had known what he really was, I would've run. I should've run. But I had nowhere else to go.

I don't want to live like this. I don't want to die like this.

I just want my humanity back.
Appearance: I'm a redhead. I guess my hair resembles copper or bronze, except it isn't shiny or all that impressive to look at. I keep it short. Last thing I need is trying to run away from some hunters and getting pulled back by my hair or getting it caught in something.

My eyes used to be pretty--dark green like pine needles--but now they're just a faded, milky jade. If there was anything I miss about how I looked when I was human, it's my eyes. I still have the freckles I've always hated. Why couldn't those just fade away?

My body is average, I guess. My hips are kind of wide, but my boobs aren't all that big. I think I'm okay to look at all around, but I'd be better if I wasn't a vampire.

Subject: Blood Red (Vampire RP)

Elian liked to cause trouble, when you've lived for centuries that's all you can really do. But this time Elian might have gone too far, what was supposed to be just a simple kill and run turned into this. Elain was being attacker by four vampires, the friends and Elian wasn't at his strongest at the moment he needed to escaped. The fight had not gone on long so far, a few cuts and such but the fight was getting more heated. The vampires were using anything they could find to stab Elian, so he needed to act fast.

(I'll leave this here, while Elian gets beat up.)

I'm curious, are you aiming to be an antagonistic character? Or will you make friends at the academy?
