Third person POV

Mun Junghyun has been alive for 300 years. Or alive might be the wrong word to use. Junghyun’s a vampire. Has been for 282 years. He was bitten and turned when he was 18 years old. When he was first turned, he had to hide in the shadows, doing everything he could to not be found out. In today’s day and age, though, humans are a rarity while mystical supernatural creatures are the common norm. Through the years the supernatural creatures took over the world, with them becoming more and more common soon humans and supernaturals began falling in love and as the supernatural creatures' DNAs were stronger most children were born as supernatural creatures. Because of this, Junghyun didn’t have to worry about moving around or hiding anymore whenever it would become suspicious as to why he wasn’t aging.

Throughout his 300 years of being alive, Junghyun has never once been in love. Not even when he was still a human. All around him, he saw people falling in love left and right. He yearned to find someone who would make him feel as happy as the fairies who danced in the sky or the wolves who roamed the forest at night. He hoped and wished that he would soon stumble upon the person who would let him know how it felt to be in love and to be loved.

In the heart of Crestwood High, a place where the bustling halls echoed with teenage chatter and the scent of youth hung in the air, Junghyun found his immortal existence forever changed. His eyes met the shy gaze of an unassuming girl named (Y/n). In the midst of the bustling student body, her quiet presence was a beacon of calm amidst the storm. Her timid smile held a depth of kindness that intrigued him, and her eyes, though often cast downward, shone with an inner light that pulled at something deep within him. As he observed her from afar, he felt an inexplicable pull, an unseen force that drew him closer with each passing day.

Every stolen glance, every accidental meeting in the school library, fueled the burgeoning emotions in his undead heart. Junghyun, the three centuries-old vampire, was falling helplessly and irrevocably in love with the quiet girl who, unbeknownst to her, had rekindled the long-lost warmth in his frozen veins.

Junghyun walked into the library searching for the girl he longed to hold, though he had never truly spoken to her, he always had a deep desire to be close to her. He easily found her as his heightened senses allowed him to find her scent entangled with the scent of the books and the 78 other people in the library. As he walked into the aisle where (Y/n) stood, Junghyun smiled as he finally had a chance to speak with her. (Y/n) stood on her tiptoes trying to reach for a certain book, yet no matter how hard she tried to stretch herself, she could not reach the book. Junghyun approached her quietly, he gently reached over her head and put his hand on the book she was trying to reach.

“Is this the book that you need?” His silky voice sent a shiver down (Y/n)’s spine, yet it also brought her comfort as it was filled with warmth and care. (Y/n) turned her head and looked up at the boy who was standing behind her, she internally gasped at how beautiful the boy was. “Yes, thank you,” She whispered. Junghyun only gave her a warm smile in response as he brought the book down and handed it to the girl whose heart was beating just a little bit quicker than before. “Here you go, need any other book?” (Y/n) looked down at the floor.

(Y/n) recognized the boy in front of her now that she had a clear view of him. Mun Junghyun. A vampire. Often found around Lee Jeonghyeon, a fellow vampire, and Park Hanbin, a werewolf. (Y/n) had noticed that Junghyun often appeared at places where she would hang out, the library, and the rose garden a little east of the school’s backyard. Truth be told. She didn’t mind his company, (Y/n) often felt uneasy around most people it didn’t matter if they were human, fairy, vampire, werewolf, or anything else, but Junghyun never once made her feel scared or unsettled.

“Actually,” (Y/n) began but she stopped as she didn’t want to burden Junghyun, he probably offered out of courtesy, she thought. “Yes?” Junghyun encouraged her to continue, his smile ever so friendly. “I do have two more books I need for my literature essay. But you don’t have to help me get them, I don’t want to burden you,” “Nonsense, now which ones do you need?” Junghyun’s smile widened a bit more, happy that he found the perfect opportunity to finally speak with the girl he was so intrigued by.

(Y/n) allowed Junghyun to help her out after he gave her another persuading smile and a wink. Junghyun insisted on holding the books for her as they walked around the library searching for the books that she needed. This interaction led to the two speaking a bit more frequently, every once in a while when Junghyun showed up at the library he would sit and read beside (Y/n), or the times when he was in the rose garden when (Y/n) walked over there, they would sit by the fountain just talking about their days. Before they knew it, the two had become friends.

Junghyun yearned for an even deeper connection. He wished he could hold (Y/n) in his arms, hug her, kiss her, protect her, and show her parts of the world she didn’t know existed. Throughout his 300 years of living, he had never once felt this way about someone. He recognized some feelings as possessiveness, the feelings that told him to swoop her up and hide her away from everyone else. Junghyun never wanted to act on these feelings, though that proved to be harder than he thought.

Junghyun, despite his outgoing and kind demeanor, grappled with the innate instincts that came with his vampire nature. He was well aware of the darkness that lurked within him, the primal urges that occasionally clawed at the surface. Yet, his love for (Y/n) was a beacon of light that kept those instincts at bay. He tried his best to hold them back, fearing that if he ever let his guard down, she would be frightened by the depths of his true nature. He cherished their friendship and the connection they shared, cherishing the moments of laughter and understanding they found in each other. Every day, he fought his vampiric urges, determined to be the person she saw - the sweet, outgoing boy who made her smile. It was a constant battle, one he faced for the sake of their friendship and the burgeoning love he felt for (Y/n). And in those moments when his dark side threatened to consume him, it was the thought of her that kept him anchored, reminding him of the importance of control and the strength of their bond.

Over the course of a year, (Y/n) found herself drawn to Junghyun's kindness and gentle demeanor, his dark eyes hiding a depth of understanding that resonated with her in ways she couldn't explain. As their friendship deepened, she couldn't help but fall in love with him, captivated not just by his supernatural allure but also by the genuine connection they shared. In the library, amidst the scent of old books and the soft whisper of turning pages, their love story quietly bloomed, transcending the boundaries of their worlds. Despite their differences, they formed an unlikely friendship, bonding over their shared passion for stories and quiet moments.

One afternoon, as Junghyun and (Y/n) were about to meet in the serene rose garden behind the school, an ominous shiver crept down Junghyun's spine. His instincts, finely attuned to the darkness that lurked in the shadows, screamed at him to act immediately, warning that (Y/n) was in imminent danger. His heart raced as he felt a sense of foreboding wash over him. Without a second thought, he turned on his heels and sprinted towards the garden, propelled by an urgency he couldn't explain but dared not ignore. Every fiber of his being told him that he had to reach (Y/n) in time, to shield her from whatever sinister threat loomed ahead.

(Y/n) felt a sudden, inexplicable pang of dread grip her heart. It was as though the air had grown heavy with an unseen menace, making it hard to breathe. A shiver danced down her spine, raising goosebumps on her skin, and a sense of impending danger washed over her like a tidal wave. Confusion and fear clouded her thoughts, and her senses heightened, making every rustle of leaves and distant sound seem magnified, intensifying her anxiety. Instinctively, she clutched at her chest, her eyes widening with alarm as she scanned the garden, searching for Junghyun. The world around her seemed to blur as her eyes fell on a dark figure approaching her. She didn’t know who it was, all she knew was that it wasn’t Junghyun. A knot of unease tightened in her stomach, leaving her paralyzed with fear, unknowingly mirroring the danger Junghyun felt rushing towards her.

As Junghyun dashed into the rose garden, his heart pounded in his chest like a drum of war, each beat echoing the dread and determination that surged through him. His breath came in ragged gasps, and his eyes, normally warm and inviting, blazed with a fierce protectiveness. The sight that met his eyes struck him like a lightning bolt. There, under the fading light of the afternoon sun, (Y/n) lay unconscious, a frail figure amidst the vibrant roses. His eyes narrowed with a mix of fear and anger as he took in the scene – an unknown vampire standing over her, a sinister smirk playing on his lips.

Rage, pure and unbridled, coursed through Junghyun's veins, eclipsing his usual calm demeanor. The realization that someone dared to harm the person he cherished most awakened the primal instincts he fought so hard to control. His fangs elongated, and his nails sharpened into deadly claws. The world around him seemed to blur, his focus narrowing to the threat before him. With a feral growl, he lunged at the intruder, his movements swift and precise. Every fiber of his being screamed for retribution, demanding justice for the innocent girl lying defenseless at his feet. Junghyun's protectiveness transformed into a ferocious determination, vowing to vanquish the menace and shield (Y/n) from any harm, his love for her fueling his unwavering resolve.

Time seemed to stop as he fought the vampire who had dared harm (Y/n). Junghyun couldn’t tell how long they fought for, all he knew was that he would kill that man. He scratched, hit, kicked, and bit the man with every chance he had. The man did a number on Junghyun too, but he felt no pain, adrenaline coursing through his cold veins, all to keep (Y/n) safe. The sun had set, casting the sky into a dark blue hue as the stars began showing themselves to the world. At that time, the man finally fell without getting back up. Junghyun kneeled beside (Y/n), panting, out of breath from the fight and from the fear of losing the only girl he had ever loved.

With trembling hands and a heart heavy with fear, he gently cradled her in his arms, her fragile form a stark contrast to the fierce determination that had just fueled his fight. Tears welled in his eyes, spilling down his cheeks unchecked, as he looked down at her pale face, willing her to wake up, to be okay.

His voice broke into desperate, whispered pleas, his words a fervent prayer to whatever forces governed life and death. "Please, (Y/n), stay with me," he choked out, his voice raw with emotion. He pressed his lips to her forehead, his tears mingling with her skin, a silent testimony to his anguish. His grip on her tightened as if he could will his strength into her, his love and desperation pouring into her unconscious form. The world around him faded into insignificance, the only thing that mattered was the fragile heartbeat he clung to, the proof that she was still with him.

At that moment, Junghyun was no longer the supernatural being with centuries of existence; he was just a young man, pleading for the life of the girl he loved, willing to give anything, even his own existence, to ensure she would open her eyes and smile at him once more.

The world stood still for Junghyun as he held (Y/n) in his arms, his desperate pleas hanging in the air like a silent prayer. And then, just when hope seemed like a flickering candle in the dark, a faint tremor coursed through her arm, so subtle that only he, with his heightened senses, could perceive it. His heart skipped a beat as he felt the movement, his eyes widening with a mixture of disbelief and overwhelming relief.

"(Y/n)?" he whispered, his voice barely audible, his eyes fixed on her face. He gently brushed a strand of hair from her forehead, his touch light and tender as he searched for any sign of her returning to consciousness. The seconds felt like an eternity as he waited, his entire being hanging on the precipice of uncertainty.

And then, like the gradual dawn after a long, dark night, her eyelids fluttered open. Junghyun held his breath, his eyes locking onto hers, his heart swelling with a profound sense of gratitude. "(Y/n), you're back," he breathed, his voice breaking with emotion. At that moment, the weight of the world lifted from his shoulders, replaced by an overwhelming flood of joy and love. He cradled her face in his hands, his thumb gently brushing away the remnants of tears on her cheeks. Relief washed over him, knowing that she was awake, alive, and safe in his arms.

As (Y/n) blinked away the haze of unconsciousness, she found herself enveloped in Junghyun's warm, protective embrace. The pain, both physical and emotional, surged through her body, making her acutely aware of her fragile mortality. Despite the agony, there was a strange comfort in the fact that the boy she loved was by her side, holding her close as if he could shield her from the pain itself.

As Junghyun held (Y/n) in his arms, his grip tightened instinctively, as if trying to anchor her to the world. The weight of his emotions bore down on him, and he found himself unable to keep the words inside any longer. His voice, usually calm and composed, trembled with the intensity of his feelings.

"(Y/n)," he began, his voice soft, barely audible above the rush of his own heartbeat. He gazed into her eyes, his dark orbs reflecting a storm of emotions. "I love you," he confessed, the words hanging in the air, heavy with vulnerability. "I've loved you from the moment we met in that library. You've become my world, my reason for existing. The thought of losing you... it terrifies me beyond words. You're not just a friend to me. You're the beating of my heart, the light in my darkness. Every smile you've given me, every moment we've shared, they've become the most precious treasures of my existence."

His fingers traced the outline of her face, his touch tender as he continued, "I've been afraid to admit it, afraid that my feelings might burden you. But now, in this moment, with the possibility of losing you looming over us, I can't hold back any longer. I love you, (Y/n), with every fiber of my being. I would give anything to keep you safe, to see you smile, to hold you close. Please, stay with me. Choose to live, not just for me, but for the love that binds us, for the future we could have together. I can't imagine my eternity without you in it." His eyes, filled with unshed tears, pleaded with her, hoping she could see the depth of his love, his fear, and his desperate need for her to stay. “Let me turn you, that way, we can be together forever,”

In that moment, she gazed into Junghyun's eyes, seeing a mixture of relief, love, and an underlying sadness. His proposal hung in the air like a fragile thread, the possibility of a new life as a vampire. It was a choice that carried immense weight and consequence, and (Y/n) felt her heart race with uncertainty. The idea of immortality, of being with Junghyun forever, tugged at the corners of her mind, tempting her with the promise of eternal love.

As she considered the proposition, she realized the depth of Junghyun's devotion. In his eyes, she saw not just the fear of losing her but also a profound desire to share eternity together, to protect her from the passage of time and the inevitable pains of mortal life. It was a choice that would bind them in ways she could scarcely comprehend, a decision that held both the allure of everlasting love and the weight of a life irrevocably changed. In that moment of pain and love, (Y/n) found herself torn between the life she knew and the unknown, the boy she loved, and the unending night that lay ahead.

With her remaining strength, (Y/n) mustered the energy to look into Junghyun's eyes, her own filled with a mixture of love, fear, and acceptance. Every fiber of her being screamed in protest, her body growing numb as her lungs fought for air. Despite the overwhelming pain, she summoned the last ounces of her strength, her lips trembling as she whispered, "Junghyun, I love you too."

The words, though weak, carried a weight of determination and affection that resonated in the quiet space between them. It was a declaration of love, a promise of eternity, and a plea for him to understand the depth of her feelings. In that moment, she clung to the love they shared, using it as a lifeline, a beacon of hope in the darkness that threatened to consume her. With her final breath, she poured all her love into those words, hoping he would carry her love with him, even as she faced the unknown.

With (Y/n)'s heartfelt declaration of love hanging in the air, Junghyun's eyes glimmered with a mixture of determination and desperation. At that moment, he felt the weight of her words, the depth of their connection, and the urgency of the situation. Without a second thought, he bared his fangs, his vampiric instincts taking over as he pressed his lips to her neck.

He bit down, his fangs sinking into her skin. As her life essence flowed into him, he closed his eyes, focusing all his strength and willpower on the transformation. Time seemed to stretch, every second feeling like an eternity as he willed the process to be successful. He murmured words of love against her skin, his breath mingling with the scent of her blood, a fervent prayer for the universe to grant them this chance at eternity.

He wished with every fiber of his being that he had managed to turn her in time, to bind her fate to his and grant her the immortality he possessed. He held onto the hope that their love, pure and unwavering, would be enough to guide her through the threshold between life and undeath, forever intertwining their destinies in the darkness.

The transformation would take hours until it was fully complete, Junghyun gently lifted (Y/n) into his arms as he began walking to his apartment. He couldn’t keep her out there in the cold night to heal, no it would be better for her to be somewhere comfortable.

With great care, Junghyun cradled the unconscious (Y/n) in his arms, her fragile form a stark contrast to his supernatural strength. With determined steps, he carried her to his apartment, a place where he felt the most secure, hoping it would offer her the comfort and safety she needed to heal.

Entering his apartment, he laid her down on a soft, plush couch, gently arranging her limbs to ensure she was as comfortable as possible. The dim light cast a soft glow over the room, creating a serene atmosphere amidst the shadows. Junghyun moved quietly, his every action careful and deliberate, his focus entirely on her well-being.

He fetched clean, soft blankets, covering her with a gentle touch, tucking her in as if shielding her from the world's harsh realities. Nearby, he set up a chair, vowing to keep a vigilant watch over her as she rested. The air in the apartment was filled with a mix of anticipation and worry, Junghyun's eyes never leaving her face as he waited for any sign of her awakening.

When (Y/n) finally stirred, her eyes fluttering open in the soft light of Junghyun's apartment, his heart leaped with relief. The exhaustion that had etched lines of worry on his face instantly melted away, replaced by a profound sense of gratitude and joy. His eyes, normally so composed, glimmered with emotion as he watched her regain consciousness.

"(Y/n)," he breathed, his voice barely more than a whisper, filled with a mixture of tenderness and awe. He reached out, his fingers brushing against her cheek as if assuring himself that she was truly awake and safe. "You're awake," he said, a soft smile playing on his lips, his voice filled with overwhelming relief. He carefully helped her sit up, his touch gentle yet reassuring, his eyes never leaving her face.

"You had me so worried," he admitted, his voice laced with vulnerability. "I thought I had lost you. I'm just... I'm so glad you're okay." His words were filled with sincerity, his relief palpable as he held her hand in his as if grounding himself in the reality of her presence. The depth of his feelings for her was laid bare, his love shining through his eyes like a beacon in the dark.

Confusion flickered in (Y/n)’s eyes as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. The last thing she remembered was the pain, the darkness closing in, and now she found herself in this unfamiliar yet strangely comforting place.

"Where... where am I?" she murmured, her voice barely audible, her gaze shifting around the room before finally settling on Junghyun. His face, etched with relief and worry, came into focus, and her eyes widened with recognition. There was a flicker of familiarity, a sense of trust that made her heart race.

"You're in my apartment," Junghyun said gently, his voice a soothing balm to her disoriented mind. "You passed out, and I brought you here to help you heal."

She instinctively touched her neck, expecting to feel pain, but there was only a dull ache. Confusion clouded her eyes as she spoke, her voice laced with a mix of awe and bewilderment, "But... how am I here? I remember... I remember feeling like I was dying."

Junghyun hesitated for a moment before he took a deep breath, his eyes searching hers. "I turned you," he confessed, his tone soft but laden with a weighty truth. "I couldn't bear to lose you. I wanted to save you."

(Y/n)'s eyes widened in astonishment, her hand trembling as she tried to comprehend the enormity of his revelation. The realization dawned on her that she was no longer human, that she had crossed a threshold into a life she hadn't chosen. A whirlwind of emotions – fear, curiosity, and gratitude – surged within her. She looked at Junghyun, a mix of confusion and acceptance in her eyes, as she whispered, "Thank you... for saving me."

In the days that followed, (Y/n) remained in Junghyun's apartment, her new sanctuary and training ground as she adjusted to her newfound existence. Under Junghyun's patient guidance, she learned the intricacies of being a vampire: the heightened senses, the strength that now flowed through her veins, and the insatiable thirst for blood that required delicate control. It was a challenging journey, filled with moments of frustration and temptation, but Junghyun was there every step of the way, offering his wisdom and support.

Junghyun taught her the importance of restraint, helping her hone her abilities and keep her instincts in check. As the days passed, (Y/n) grew stronger and more confident, her bond with Junghyun deepening with each shared experience.

Yet, amid the challenges, there were moments of unexpected beauty. Junghyun showed her the wonders of the night, the hidden corners of the city where vampires roamed freely, unseen by prying eyes. They explored the world together, embracing the darkness as their shared realm, finding solace in the understanding that only they could truly comprehend.

In those quiet moments, (Y/n) also discovered the depth of Junghyun's love. He was not just her mentor but her confidant, her rock in the storm of her new life. His unwavering belief in her, his ability to see the human within her vampire form, reassured her in ways she couldn't explain. Their connection became a source of strength, a testament to the power of love in the face of the unknown.

As the nights turned into weeks, (Y/n) found herself not just surviving but thriving in her new existence, with Junghyun by her side, guiding her with a steady hand and a heart full of devotion. Together, they embraced the eternal night, finding comfort and purpose in the shared journey of two souls bound by an immortal love.

The night was quiet, the world outside Junghyun's apartment shrouded in a gentle darkness. A soft, silvery glow from the moon spilled into the room, casting intricate patterns across the walls. (Y/n) and Junghyun stood facing each other, their eyes locked in a moment that felt suspended in time. The air was charged with an unspoken intensity, a mingling of anticipation and nervous energy.

Junghyun's fingers brushed against (Y/n)'s cheek, his touch feather-light, as if he was afraid she might vanish if he pressed too hard. His eyes, deep and intense, searched hers for permission, for a sign that she was ready for this next step in their relationship. (Y/n) met his gaze with a mixture of curiosity and affection, her heart fluttering in her chest like a caged bird yearning to be set free.

With a barely audible sigh, Junghyun closed the distance between them, his lips soft and warm as they met hers in a tender, hesitant kiss. It was a moment of exquisite vulnerability, a shared exploration of unspoken emotions. Their lips moved together, a gentle dance of longing and affection, conveying what words could not.

Time seemed to stand still as they kissed, the world outside fading into insignificance. It was their first taste of intimacy, a moment of connection that transcended the boundaries of the physical world. In that kiss, they shared not just their passion but the depth of their emotions, a silent promise of love and understanding that would guide them through the eternity that lay ahead.

As they finally broke the kiss, their eyes met once more, a silent acknowledgment passing between them. It was more than a kiss; it was a declaration of their love, a promise to stand by each other in the endless nights to come. In that quiet moment, their hearts spoke volumes, sealing their bond in a way that words could never capture. Bloodbound for eternity.

so true. glad someone finally said it.

like, maybe all ur friends r human, but don't lump the rest of us in w u. like me? i got plenty of immortal friends. now, "friends" isn't exactly the word i'd use — it's hard to define someone you've known for a millennia and have mutually attempted to murder a friend — but we're something, i assure you. (ichabod if ur reading this: u owe me $50. give it to me or i'm killing ur bf again)

as for my human relations, well. dying is the price of living, isn't it? even i, immortal that i am, will eventually pay my dues. now, whether i die by choice, murder or circumstance is yet to be seen (and will remain unseen for some time, if i have anything to say about it. don't even think about it, ichabod), but death is an eventuality. no use crying over spilled milk, is there?

and personally, i'm glad to forget who i was. i'm not sure what possessed me, but i was a fashion disaster during the renaissance — perhaps a holdover from drinking so much plague infested blood? — and it is best that that abomination is left in the past. the me now is much more stylistically inclined.

so yes: immortality is a skill that, based on the fledglings i've had the misfortune of meeting recently, few of you possess. i suggest taking a walk in the sun to remedy this situation :)

(ichabod im not kidding. it's been 300 years, and u KNOW i'm adjusting the amount for inflation. u have until sundown three days hence, or i'm going to put brian's head on a spike. throw in a sheet of brownies, and i'll do it anyway to save us both from having to endure his constant, never ending instagram stories.)

"immortality sucks because all your friends die" all your friends die anyway. those we do not mourn are those who mourn us.

"immortality sucks because you forget who you are" we always forget who we are. do you remember who you were at four years of age? who you were at fourteen? "who i am" is a shadow cast on the wall.

"immortality sucks because" skill issue. skill issue. skill issue. give me your liver

At this point I can confidently say I like Unseen immortal of 300 years more than Panguan. Gosh I miss these feelings I had when reading Copper coins for the first time. Very refreshing, and very engrossing. A bit of a slower start than Copper coins but this one is quite longer and more complex and intricate in terms of plot so... But I'm still only half way in, hope the other half won't disappoint me!

#not saying Panguan is bad though it just isn't to my taste #i dislike the cages solving part and the romance isn't my cup of tea #while shangxian's mysteries are more interesting to me and the main cp's dynamic just slowly grow on me as well #they are very cute together aww!#shangxian #unseen immortal of three hundred years #mu su li #不见上仙三百年 #danmei #also first and foremost i'm very partial to xianxia and wuxia #and quite lukewarm to modern/contemporary setting hehe

so y’all know im a huge fan of Mu Su Li (木苏里)’s works (incl Global Examination, Copper Coins, etc)

Well, she’s been updating her newest novel on jjwxc, 不见上仙三百年 (Unseen Immortal of 300 Years)

This is a cultivation xianxia setting!! With immortals and ghosts and cultivators! Ship is powerful immortal (上仙) x dangerous ghost (魔头), & starts off with a transmigration premise: think svsss type setup, but tgcf type ship

Synopsis: Tens of thousands of demons in this world roam; half call the city of Zhaoye home. As for the other half, they’ve all died in Canglang North Territory, controlled by the Tiansu Immortal Xiao Fuxuan. Only one demon has been imprisoned for twenty-five years and still lives— the chief of Zhaoye City, Wu Xingxue.

I’ve been really loving it so far, so I thought I’d give the translation a shot (no promises tho shebwkwlwl)

Chapter 1 is up!

SPECIES - PART ONE.

fables - and the city of st. ostara - is home to twenty-nine species, all inspired by myths and folklore from multiple cultures and countries. these are the first eleven.

GENERAL INFO.

species within the city are categorized into different groups based on shared characteristics. these species are so commonly associated together, that over time, they have shared reputations, class ranking, and social mobility within the city.

characters of each species can have any and all powers listed under their species info, in addition to one power of their writer’s choosing. characters do not need to have all the listed powers and do not need to have the allotted extra power if it is unwanted. the application has a section to list and detail your character’s powers. descriptions for powers are purposely loose and open to interpretation, feel free to be as creative with the presentation of what is listed.

hybrids (half one species, half another) typically identify with one species more than the other - usually the species they more physically resemble - and that is the species that will go on their profile. they may have half of both species' listed powers as well as one unique power. hybrids will have an average of their parent’s lifespans - immortal hybrids may span thousands of years, but will never know true immortality. some species cannot reproduce or do not reproduce through normal means, and cannot be part of a hybrid. this list will be posted once all the species are revealed, but we will answer questions on this as needed.

BEASTS

beasts are those in the city who stick out against mortal life forms like sore thumbs - horns, tails, and fangs giving away their true nature. although well respected for not losing their own odd form of magic over the years of human influence, beasts are wondrous and strange, and not everyone is always sure how to regard them.

FAMILIARS

familiars began as animals who were considered spirit guides - creatures who held the power to assist other beings of magic and amplify their powers. over time, to show gratitude for their help, the other species helped them develop the ability to have a human form as well. while once they were merely used as companions, familiars have become highly independent, to mixed reviews from their st. ostara peers. familiars have the unique ability to bond with a non-familiar, that links them physically and psychologically. familiars can change into any non-extinct animal up until they form a bond, in which they will settle on a form that matches both them and their partner’s personality and needs.

+ enhanced senses sight, smell, touch, sound, and taste are all intensified.

+ animal form the ability to transform into their animal counterpart.

+ claw retraction the ability to extend and retract claws from one’s hands.

+ magic amplification the ability to strengthen the abilities of their bonded partner

familiars have mortal lifespans.

once bonded, they are ‘on call’ to the whims and beckonings of their partner.

breaking a bond, or their partner dying, can potentially result in the loss of their ability to shift.

WEAVERS

once primarily a cave-dwelling species, weavers are descended from an ancient breed of spiders that eventually gained a human form. commonly tall and slender, the only thing that gives their species away is their ability to generate multiple limbs and eyes. they excel at attracting others so that they may partake in their blood-based diet at their prey’s expense. being simply bitten by a weaver has no long-term negative health effects, but weavers can murder their prey - although most consider it overkill. weavers can turn humans into weavers, however, their bloodlines are connected - if the weaver that turned someone dies or is killed, any weaver they have turned will also die.

+ web generation the ability to create and place spider webbing.

+ pheromone generation the ability to consciously produce and release specific pheromones.

+ enhanced balance proficient ability to stay stable on small or uneven surfaces.

+ multiple limb generation the power to produce extra limbs from one’s body.

+ enhanced bite the ability to have an especially powerful, deep, or damaging bite.

weavers can live up to 500 years.

weavers get extremely sickly and weak when they go too long with sating their appetite.

DRAGONS

dragons, fearsome guardians in ancient lore, were once revered for their ability to secure and protect treasure for the old gods. over time, however, they have shed their loyalties and are now known to err on the side of neutrality, preferring to isolate themselves on the fringes of the city. but eons of having power and wealth at their claws draw these keen-eyed beasts from their faraway caverns towards thrones of glass and gold sitting tall in the heart of st. ostara - craving to even further their riches and power - although their poor impulse control and compulsive need to hoard usually get in the way of this.

+ social magnetism the ability to attract or repel others.

+ fear inducement the ability to provoke irrational fear in others.

+ wing manifestation the power to develop or form wings.

+ electricity OR ice manipulation the ability to control and generate electricity OR ice.

+ dragon physiology the ability to gain dragon-like features at will.

dragons can live upwards of 2,000 years.

dragons have an impulsive need to hoard.

FAE FOLK

high pitched giggles usually mark the entrance of one of the fair folk, and trouble is never far off from them, either. they are captivating creatures, lively and entertaining - and they know it. unlike many of the other categories in st. ostara, the fae folk are all incredibly close and regard each other as one and the same. is it well known that you do not wrong one of these sharp-tongued creatures, or else you’ll have to answer to hundreds of their ‘cousins’.

FAERIES

the most common of the fae, faeries are generally depicted as free-spirited, joyous creatures who overrun the city with their constant chattering. able to shrink down to just a few inches tall, many faeries prefer homes that fit this true size, and it’s easy to spot small doors around town that lead to equally small alcoves for them to live in. their cute demeanor and oftentimes flirty disposition are dangerous for the rest of the city, however, as faeries are generally self-serving and jump at the chance to trick others. even those of the sharpest wit that come to them with favors or demands will be left tongue-tied and somehow indebted to the fairy instead.

+ size manipulation the power to shrink in size as well as return to one’s normal size.

+ oath bestowal the ability to create oaths and promises that others must follow through on.

+ wing manifestation the ability to grow or manifest fairy wings.

+ flight the power to fly with the help of one’s wings.

+ conjuration the ability to cast spells that summon creatures, items, etc.

faeries can live up to 200 years.

GOBLINS

the black sheep of the fae family, goblins are chaotic, mischievous beings who were once thought to be created to punish the fae for their well-documented indecency when it came to human lovers and stealing human children. much to the world’s chagrin, however, the rest of the fae adored their cousins from the very beginning. considered a pest by anyone outside of the fae family, goblins tend to accept their reputation gleefully. their unique powers require an incredible amount of energy to keep up with, however and thus require a special diet - for goblins have the ability to devour the souls of both humans and monsters alike. not eating will turn them into horrific monsters over time - graying their skin, elongating the tips of their ears, and turning their eyes completely red.

+ bad luck inducement the ability to make bad fortune more likely.

+ enhanced dexterity the power to control one’s muscles, limbs, and overall body above normal capability.

+ invisibility the ability to make oneself unseen.

+ magical immunity the power to be unaffected by magic.

+ supernatural speed the ability to move at a highly enhanced speed.

goblins can live up to 200 years.

SPRIGGANS

boasting a slightly taller stature than most fae and able to grow leaves, flowers, and vines through their hair, spriggans are known as perhaps the most solemn of the fae. they came about as magical guardians of nature, and for this reason, they have a difficult history with st. ostara. with the construction of the city came the clearing of several forested areas to make room for more residents, and the native spriggans initially did not welcome this change. in modern times they are known for their collective conservation efforts and attempts to make the forest a more understood and respected part of st. ostara.

+ botanical communication the ability to communicate with plantlife.

+ plant manipulation the power to control and shape plantlife.

+ chlorokinetic scrying the ability to see, hear, or otherwise perceive things anywhere there are plants.

KNOCKERS

a common type of fae in the underbelly, knockers are renowned for their helpfulness to those working in the mines and cave systems. after years and years of mining resources out of the earth under st. ostara, knockers’ power to find and lead other species to precious minerals has proved invaluable. while they do enjoy serving and helping, they also well-known for being practical jokers, hiding in shadows and phasing through walls to spook the workers of the underbelly for fun.

+ earth manipulation the power to control and shape earth.

+ mineral detection the ability to sense and pinpoint the location of minerals within one’s vicinity.

+ shadow mimicry the power to transform into a shadow.

+ phasing the ability to be move through solid objects.

knockers can live up to 200 years.

PURITIES

the physical embodiments of blinding white light and soft, harmonious music, purities are those in st. ostara whose powers serve a completely unselfish, greater purpose in the city. although they are perhaps the rarest species of the city, they are well sought out, and many keep their true identities secret.

UNICORNS

ethereal and delicate, unicorns are historically the most hunted species still holding ranks in the city, making crossing paths with one few and far between. in the days of old, unicorns would only appear before virgin maidens, pure of heart - nowadays, they are still skittish of who they reveal themselves to, but the requirements are decidedly more lax. over time, their horns have evolved down to a single, opaque gemstone on their foreheads - the likes of which are rumored to be the key to discovering the secrets to immortality, making them incredibly valuable to both monsters and humans alike.

+ healing kiss the ability to heal the wounds of others with a kiss.

+ fertility inducement the power to strengthen life-giving forces, causing growth and reproduction.

+ empathic healing the ability to heal others’ emotional wounds.

+ curse removal the power to permanently remove curses from those pure of heart.

if a unicorn's gem is shattered or otherwise broken, they lose all their powers.

unicorns can live up to 1,000 years.

ANGELS

appearing as though they were carved from stone, angels operate as st. ostara’s guardians and harbingers of justice. together, angels watch over the city, guiding and helping its citizens and punishing those who dare disturb its peace - karma doesn’t exist in st. ostara, but the angels sure do. they are methodical creatures who follow a strict moral code - but despite their tendency to reap sharp punishments, there is a softness to angels and an intense willingness to nurture and care for others.

+ light manipulation the ability to emit and create constructs out of light.

+ bond empowerment the power to gain strength from friendship and love.

+ illusion awareness the ability to detect illusory magic.

+ lie detection the ability to identify a lie.

+ elemental wing manifestation the ability to create wings out the elements, such as water, air, fire, etc.

angels can live up to 1,000 years.

PSYCHOPOMPS

st. ostara’s ‘clean up crew’, responsible for transporting the dead and keeping those that still linger in the afterlife in check. psychopomps are powerful beings, whose ability to have one foot in the land of the living and one in the beyond tends to frighten the rest of the city, leading to superstitions and protective charms to keep them at bay.

REAPERS

despite other species’ wariness around them, reapers are an essential part of the ecosystem of the city, and much of ostara’s medical field is composed of them.reapersscythe-wielding and cloaked in black fabric, reapers are the species the humans were the closest to getting right. they travel through shadows, and while they look no different from any other human, there is a ghastly aura about them, one that gives away their true nature and abilities. some reapers are no-nonsense, and simply swing their blade and move on, while others may take the time to care for the souls they reap, making sure to fill any last wishes.

+ mediumship the power to communicate with spirits in the afterlife.

+ weapon manifestation the ability to conjure and call a weapon out of thin air.

+ necromancy the power to raise and re-animate the bodies of the dead.

+ shadow manipulation the ability to manipulate and call forth shadows.

+ after-life transport the ability to send souls to the afterlife.

+ life-force absorption the power to steal life-force from those they reap and gain strength from it.

weaknesses: reapers are more aware of the prescence of the afterlife in the city, and the constant taunts of ghosts can be psychologically damming.

reapers can live up to 200 years.

HELLHOUNDS

once rabid, foaming beasts, hellhounds were imprisoned in the confines of the underbelly long ago. freedom at their grasp for the past century, hellhounds are still regarded as dangerous and unhinged. unlike the other psychopomps, they cannot transport souls from one side to another, but rather assist in the tracking of particularly troubling phantoms or predict death before it happens and nudge the process along. while they can be bred, anybody can become a hellhound by offering to take the place of someone who was supposed to die.

+ hellhound form the ability to transform into a hellhound - a large, menacing black beast.

+ death song the power to cause or call attention to death through howling.

+ vice inducement the power to compel people to give into their vices.

+ psychic navigation the ability to track people mentally.

+ death sense the ability to know when and where someone will die.

+ fire breath the ability to expel bursts of fire from their mouth.

weaknesses:

their power of death sense is highly emotionally taxing. additionally, if a person becomes a hellhound by saving another person, they cannot see that person or be physically near to them without becoming dangerously feral, unable to stop attacking until either the other person is dead or they grievously injure themselves.

hellhounds can live up to 200 years - these 200 years are set once someone becomes a hellhound.

VALKYRIES

frighteningly beautiful creatures who are proud of who they are. typically seen working in groups, valkyries thunder into the city on pegasi, makeup fashioned in the form of warpaint. while reapers clean things up and hellhounds sense death, valkyries are the psychopomps who cut the strings of fate. they decide who lives or dies, and they value strength and barbarism over all.

+ healing the ability to heal the wounds of oneself or others.

+ wing manifestation the ability to manifest wings at will.

+ death inducement the ability to choose who will die.

+ enhanced combat heightened battle skills.

+ probability manipulation the ability to manipulate the outcomes of situations.

+ war empowerment to gain strength from conflict and battle.

weaknesses:

due to their role in st. ostara’s life cycle, ‘soft’ valkyries who form emotional bonds with non-immortals are often ostracized.

valkyries can live up to 200 years.

The Little Mermaid is always said to have the ending where she dies and turns to foam. However that isn’t actually the end. Only humans have souls in that universe, not mermaids, and that’s why she wanted to be human and the prince was her way of getting to be that. She thought she was turning into seafoam (which she was warned about) but air spirits (daughters of the air) took her and gave her a chance to gain a soul without being human. After 300 years of “service” she’d be able to gain an immortal soul.

“We fly to warm countries, and cool the sultry air that destroys mankind with the pestilence. We carry the perfume of the flowers to spread health and restoration. After we have striven for three hundred years to all the good in our power, we receive an immortal soul and take part in the happiness of mankind. You, poor little mermaid, have tried with your whole heart to do as we are doing; you have suffered and endured and raised yourself to the spirit-world by your good deeds; and now, by striving for three hundred years in the same way, you may obtain an immortal soul.”

So she’s given a chance and the story tells children to be good so that the Little Mermaid can gain a soul.

“After three hundred years, thus shall we float into the kingdom of heaven,” said she. “And we may even get there sooner,” whispered one of her companions. “Unseen we can enter the houses of men, where there are children, and for every day on which we find a good child, who is the joy of his parents and deserves their love, our time of probation is shortened. The child does not know, when we fly through the room, that we smile with joy at his good conduct, for we can count one year less of our three hundred years. But when we see a naughty or a wicked child, we shed tears of sorrow, and for every tear a day is added to our time of trial!”

lore book transcription: voidsent

for a poster on the RPC

I picked out passages from various sections that seemed relevant; apologies if I missed anything

Also there are, like, four pages of voidsent creatures in the Bestiary, I’m not transcribing all of them (sorry) but I’ll provide a list of their names in tiers and you can send me an ask if you want a specific creature’s profile. If someone offers you scans, they’re on pages 297 through 300.

...except Cuchulainn; I’ll transcribe him. You’ll see why.

Basic Aetherology - Life and Aether [ref: 008]

Within all beings - whether it be man, animal, or even plant - does aether flow. It is the spark which grants life to the lifeless. Conversely, death can be said to occur once aether has left a corporeal object. From this it is clear to see why many scholars use the words “life” and “aether” interchangeably. It can be assumed that a young man of sound mind and body will possess a high concentration of aetherial energy in his humours, whereas an older man, or one inflicted with corruption, will not. Some scholars have expanded on this hypothesis saying that the consumption of food serves not only to feed the belly, but to provide the body with aether lost through exertion.

Aether is not by any means static. It constantly flows through creation, forming currents through earth, water, and air which ensure that life is sustained throughout the world. The stoppage of these currents would be akin to the atrophication of a limb cut off from the heart. Aether is the lifeblood of Hydaelyn, and without it She - and Her children - would perish.

History - Victory in Meracydia [ref: 027]

[...]

In a breakthrough by the [Allagan] imperial mages, communion with voidsent was achieved, ultimately culminating in the signing of a pact between Emperor Xande and the self-proclaimed “ruler” of the void, the Cloud of Darkness. In exchange for an unlimited supply of vessels which would house the minions of the void, allowing them to remain in the corporeal realm, the emperor merely demanded that the voidsent fight for him on the shores of Meracydia. With each enemy slain, a new vessel would become available, allowing for the immediate summoning of a host and subsequent possession of the body. The more the undead army killed, the larger their ranks swelled, until not even the mighty Bahamut reborn could overcome their numbers.

[...]

History - Voidmagicks [ref: 031]

Although the Mhachi were known as masters of black magic, the extent of their powers was not limited to Shatotto’s school of spellcraft. Toward the autumn years of the Fifth Astral Era, the civilisation had begun perfecting voidmagicks - the summoning and manipulation of creatures known as “voidsent” from beyond the corporeal realm.

A report by the scholars of the Nominated Observers of Artifacts Historical defines the “void” as “An otherworld parallel to the one in which man dwells. Abnormal events can weaken the veil between world,s tearing it asunder and allowing the voidsent to invade the material realm. These fiends have a depraved appetite, and seek our world merely to consume the aether it contains, allowing neither beast nor man to stand in their way.”

The mages of the Allagan Empire had previously experimented in forging covenants with the demons of the void in hopes of harnessing the creatures’ powers. The Mhachi expanded on this endeavour, adding extra protections to their experiments so as not to invite the same fate that befell the Allagans. To this end, the mages developed an occult device - the Nullstone - to preserve themselves and their city should a pact be broken. If a summoned voidsent refused to obey the master, a voidmage could smite the feral being using the Nullstone to sever its ties to the corporeal realm. It was in mastering this power that Mhachi came to believe in their civilisation’s supremacy over all others, eventually driving them into war.

Powerful voidsent were brought to heel via the Nullstone, reducing them to naught more than strategic weapons for the Mhachi military. A mage by the name of Calofisteri combined the power of an aether-infused crystal with the ritual consumption of voidsent blood to achieve a twisted form of immortality, that she might guard this artefact from those who might seek to destroy it.

Creatures categorised in the upper rungs of the twelve-tiered voidsent hierarchy cannot pass through dimensional borders by way of an artificial tear. They instead require a willing vessel from the corporeal side, possessing their soul and entering the world by way of a “summoning”. The Nullstone has the capability to destroy that vessel and nullify the pact between it and the summoner, making it a powerful tool in maintaining control over even the most powerful of voidsent.

History - The Nymian Plague [ref: 033]

[...]

It was not until it was too late that Nymian scholars discovered the amphora to be part of an elaborate Mhachi plan that would see the unleashing of Bitoso - a pestilence-carrying voidsent summoned to Eorzea for the sole purpose of decimating the Nymian population.

Those who contracted the voidsent’s disease experienced disfiguring symptoms - their nose and ears melted away, their limbs shriveled, and their flesh turned a ghastly shade of green.

[...]

The Ascians - Igeyorhm [ref: 213]

“For the glory of Lord Zodiark!”

In the Thirteenth, Igeyorhm’s power proved too much for the inexperienced Bringer of Light and their one-sided battles eventually resulted in a Flood of Darkness consuming the entire world and rendering it a nigh-empty void. What life remained quickly atrophied into aether-starved monsters relegated to fighting amongst themselves for dominion over their corrupted realm. Void of its aether, the Thirteenth could no longer be rejoined with Hydaelyn, ultimately losing its value to the Ascians. After fleeing to the Source, Igeyorhm sought redemption for her failure by enacting Lahabrea’s will. [...]

Bestiary - Voidsent [ref: 296]

“The creature is not born of this land, but cometh otherwhence, yet fro whethen it came, men wot knot, and voidsent it is thus ycleped.” - Frandelont Raimdelle

Prior to its discovery as an actual existing realm parallel to ours, the void was simply an imagined place that ignorant peoples used as a convenient answer to questions they were unable to answer. Whither comes the unknown beast? The void. What causes the moons to wane? The void. However, it has since been proven to be a realm not dissimilar to ours, albiet one devoid of light, a trait that has given rise to terrible creatures - creatures who will stop at nothing to invade our realm and sup on our life-giving aether.

Bestiary - The Properties of the Void and Voidsent [ref: 296]

If recent treatises penned by the Scions of the Seventh Dawn are to be believed, Hydaelyn may be more than a realm created and ruled by a pantheon of Twelve, but also the embodiment of two sentient beings - the eponymous “Mother” of our world and Her antithesis, Zodiark, and that it is a conflict between these two that resulted in the void’s creation. Hydaelyn - will of Light - sensing treachery at the hands of Zodiark - will of Darkness - banished Her twin, sealing Him deep within the moon. This excision of Light from Darkness, however, left a wound in the aether, splitting the corporeal plane from the “Source” into ten and three mirrored “reflections” which, while identical upon their formation, saw separate and unique evolutions.

A successful foray into the void by members of an expeditionary party known as the “fellowship of NOAH” revealed the realm to be a dark vacuum lacking any and all traces of aether, but possessing traits that suggest it may once have been teeming with life. The Scions expand on these observations, explaining that the void is actually one of Hydaelyn’s reflections from which all light was struck following a “Flood of Darkness”. Stripped of balance between Light and Darkness, ambient aether could no longer exist, leaving a realm “void” of life energy. Without the aether required for survival, the realm’s denizens grew twisted of mind and body, eventually devolving into what we now know as voidsent.

Bestiary - Summoning Voidsent [ref: 296]

Though one could walk a thousand malms and never reach the other, the void and the Source lie but a hair’s breadth apart, separated by an unseen veil serving to prevent travel between the two worlds. This veil, however, is not absolute, and with the right amount of aetherial force can be torn to create temporary gateways - gateways to which aether-starved voidsent are drawn, sensing the life energies of our realm. Naturally occurring rents are typically minor, allowing only the smallest and weakest of voidsent through before the wound heals. However in the years leading up to and following the Calamity, the barrier between the two planes has grown weak, resulting in larger and more frequently tears and thusly stronger intruders.

Recognising the power that lies in this dark realm, mankind has developed methods of creating artificial rents and therefrom summoning voidsent, binding the beings into service with precarious bloodpacts. In the Third Astral Era, the emperor Xande sought to enter a covenant with the Cloud of Darkness that he might utilise her power in the conquering of the world. Taking cue from the Allagans, mages of Fifth Astral Era Mhach summoned voidsent into Eorzea not only to fight their wars, but to power their creations... an endeavour that ultimately met with disastrous results. Since then, void summoning has fallen out of fashion, being deemed both dangerous and harmful to the world’s aetherial balance. Natheless, this has not prevented cultists from dabbling i nthe deadly art - their achievements finding immortality in forbidden tomes such as the Necrologos.

Voidsent summoning is oft conducted using one of two methods. The first entails the opening of a voidgate - a rent in the veil large enough for most of the realm’s denizens to pass through. However, casting a spell capable not only of opening a hole of sufficient size, but sustaining it for any duration is costly, requiring massive amounts of aether. The second is far more aether-efficient, requiring but a small hole through which the soul or essence of a voidsent passes. The soul will then possess a “vessel” provided by the summoner - the drawback of this method being that, the stronger the voidsent summoned, the more powerful the vessel required to contain the soul.

Bestiary - The Voidal Heirarchy [ref: 296 - 300]

Using knowledge gathered from folklore, encoutners, and actual summonings, scholars of the void have taken to categorising the creatures into one of twelve rungs representing relative strength and intelligence - the lower the number, the more formidable the voidsent in relation to others. These ranks by no means have bearing on a creature’s actual standing within the void, and merely serve to help Eorzeans better understand these mysterious and violent visitors.

Cuchulainn

One theory places the void’s formation in the hands of champions such as Cuchulainn who wielded a stone known as “auracite” to conquer their plane’s primals. The weapon, however, possessed a fatal imperfection: a propensity to bleed primal energies. With each victory, the heroes changed, transforming at last into fiends of endless appetite. Insatiable in their hunger for aether, they ultimately went to war over the star’s ever-dwindling life force. It was during this war that the Flood of Darkness was unleashed.

[Transcriber’s note: I will include here only the profiles of voidal chimeras.]

Naga

The naga is a sizeable scalekin-like creature, large enough to swallow an entire phurble. Originally thought to be native to the eastern continent of Othard, naturalists now know that the aberrations are actually chimeras pieced together in a Third Astral Era laboratorium from the limbs of voidsent summoned to this realm by godless Allagan aetherochemists. Records claim that they created the naga for no other reason than to discern whether such grafting and splicing of voidal flesh was, in fact, possible.

Empuse

Using knowledge gained in the creation of the naga, Allagan aetherochemists ultimately succeeded in cloning flesh that, for all intents and purposes, was identical to that from creatures of the void despite being grown entirely on this plane. This flesh was subsequently provided to the imperial army whose weapons division scientists fused it with antling tissue, creating what they believed to be the perfect infantry soldier.

“No one hurts my family and lives. No one.”

↠ Birthdate: 10th Century A.D. (28/1000+) ↠ Gender: Male ↠ Sexuality: Up to Player ↠ Occupation: Up to Player ↠ Faceclaim: Daniel Gillies

Elijah Mikaelson is the third-born of Mikael and Esther's children, born in an area of the New World that would come to be known as Mystic Falls, Virginia. Elijah's parents fled from Europe, with his older brother, Finn, and a few others after the supposed death of his older sister, Freya, from the plague while Esther was pregnant with Elijah.

The loss of his first born had hardened Mikael and he proved to be a very strict father, who was feared by all his children. Elijah had a close relationship with his mother, who once mentioned to him that, when she was pregnant with him, she would have Freya sing to him. This was one of the few times Esther ever spoke of her lost daughter. In addition, Elijah was very close to his siblings, with the exception of Finn, who had never recovered from losing Freya and never taken to his new siblings as a result. Elijah was closest to Niklaus and Rebekah, and his younger brother would often carve figurines and statuettes for his brother and sister. However, while Mikael was hard on all his children, he was hardest on Niklaus, whom he saw as weak. Once, when Elijah took his younger brother hunting and complimented him on the improvement of his aim (despite the fact that Niklaus had missed his target), Mikael arrived and started beating Niklaus to 'strengthen' him, threatening Elijah with violence if he tried to intervene. He carried guilt for the rest of his life for not stopping their father's beatings against his brother.

Elijah ran from Mikael with his siblings, fleeing to Europe where they fed along the countryside. However, Elijah stressed regulation and rules, taking up the duties of the eldest due to Finn's pessimistic view of their immortal lives. Before they had learned compulsion to help cover their tracks, Elijah made sure that they always disposed of the bodies they fed on and killed whoever knew the truth about them. He also made sure that they stood together and didn't separate, reminding his siblings of their vows. The siblings travelled throughout Europe, integrating into society and discovering new allies and enemies along the way.

In 1713, having fled Europe from Mikael, Elijah, along with Klaus and Rebekah, and their two daggered brothers, sailed across the world, through the Mississippi River and arrived in the French colony of Louisiana, off the shores of a town they have named New Orleans, 300 years from the present. It was here that they found a home until 1919 when they had to flee from Mikael’s wrath.

In the centuries that followed, Elijah was daggered and undaggered by his brother. Constantly at his side and cleaning up the messes that his brother made while trying to find a cure for the curse placed upon Klaus. It was this mission that first brought Elijah to Mystic Falls in search of the Petrova doppleganger. Yet now, Elijah stands besides his siblings once more. The Original Family in New Orleans, where they belong once more.

Elijah is described as unpredictable, over-protective and stubborn, but also very kind, intelligent, selfless, empathetic, compassionate, and friendly. He is extremely loyal and has a loving nature. He strongly believes in trust, honesty and loyalty and whenever he would give his word to someone, he would keep it, as he has said "I'm a man of my word". Elijah has been known to break deals but only when he realized he was lied to, such as in his deal with Sophie Deveraux. He has a lot of respect and admiration for human life, which is unseen in many other vampires and is normally very reluctant to kill anyone when unnecessary. He is known for speaking his mind and having a fierce temper, which he possibly inherited from his father though unlike Mikael, Elijah is capable of controlling it. Elijah very rarely has tolerance for those who broke their words to him, shown when he killed Trevor for betraying him and imprisoned Katherine for her own betrayal. He also has no tolerance for those that disrespect him. He has been shown to go to great lengths to make those that disrespect him suffer.

Hayley Marshall ↠ Even while Klaus was trying to tell her what to do and when to do it, Elijah was always on her side. He felt a deep respect for her, especially after she proved she could hold her own without requiring protection from anyone.

Klaus Mikaelson ↠ -- Elijah is Klaus’ maternal older half-brother. As humans, they were close, engaging in friendly sword fights, however their relationship became strained due to both falling for the the same woman, Tatia. After transitioning into vampires, along with their sister, Rebekah, they made a pact to always stick by each other “Always and Forever”. However, throughout the centuries the two brothers have fought and bickered before reconciling over and over again.

Katherine Pierce ↠ -- In 1492, Elijah met a woman named Katerina Petrova who was the first doppelgänger of Tatia. Elijah and Katerina got to know each other before he introduced her to his younger brother Niklaus. Klaus wanted her to be sacrificed, but Elijah had started to have feelings for her. When Katerina escaped, Elijah felt betrayed by her and started hunting her down.

This character is OPEN.

Suspended disbelief: The telegraphed highway to Lesnar-Reigns at WrestleMania 34

Massive fan of WWE? Remember to subscribe to my podcast In This Nook with Brian Campbell the place I break down all the pieces you have to know every week.

From the second The Undertaker was pinned by Roman Reigns in the principle occasion of WrestleMania 33 final April in Orlando, Florida, the plan for WWE’s essential occasion at this 12 months’s “Showcase of the Immortals” has seemingly centered round Reigns and common champion Brock Lesnar.

Not solely did veteran scribe Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Publication lead the cost reporting it as truth the following day, WWE’s reserving over the 10 months that adopted — together with Lesnar protecting the championship and Reigns largely moved into secondary title feuds — appeared to help the concept.

Ought to Lesnar and Reigns meet contained in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans on April eight at WrestleMania 34, WWE would deserve credit score for not less than defending the reveal on tv. Lesnar and Reigns have been refrained from one different in storyline and barely acknowledged one another’s existence save for a Deadly Four-Means title match that main-evented SummerSlam. However the firm has failed miserably in protecting those self same plans from leaking via sources to the media.

The one drawback for WWE in cementing plans for Lensar-Reigns up to now prematurely is the obtrusive lack of suspense it creates coming into Sunday’s Elimination Chamber pay-per-view, which serves as the ultimate Uncooked-exclusive cease earlier than WrestleMania.

Reigns and Lesnar had been a part of an epic Deadly Four-Means at SummerSlam. WWE

With a seven-man males’s Elimination Chamber match designed to find out Lesnar’s opponent and Royal Rumble winner Shinsuke Nakamura having already chosen WWE champion AJ Types as his opponent, there’s nearly a 100 p.c assure that Reigns will probably be victorious. Due to how loaded the match is with star energy (Reigns will face John Cena, Finn Balor, Seth Rollins, Elias, The Miz and Braun Strowman), the removing of uncertainty is additional disappointing.

The mere presence of filth sheets have at all times been a Catch-22 for severe followers. Whereas the lust for information is a thrill unto itself, it competes straight with the innocence of watching scripted leisure — no totally different than “Star Wars” or “Breaking Dangerous” — with out realizing what occurs subsequent.

On one hand, professional wrestling is being lined as nearly a authentic sport by main information websites in 2018 — you might be studying this on CBSSports.com, in any case — in methods by no means thought doable previously. That in itself is extremely optimistic for the style’s well being, simply as expertise has made it simpler than ever to entry promotions far faraway from WWE’s huge bubble.

Following the real-life journeys of WWE celebrity and the monetary realities of the enterprise at massive may also be simply as enthralling because the predetermined drama contained in the ring. However with that comes the value of overabundant entry to potential spoilers, even for followers useless set on avoiding them.

With all of that stated, ought to Reigns win Elimination Chamber on Sunday, it might be tough to complain about what would comply with.

A Lesnar-Reigns feud has cash written throughout it, giving the promotion an opportunity to completely anoint Reigns as “The Man” at a time when Lesnar has been introduced as dominant for a full 12 months. The 2 even have historical past of delivering car-crash gold throughout their WrestleMania 31 essential occasion in 2015 that was constructing to be a basic till Rollins memorably cashed in his Cash within the Financial institution contract.

A Reigns victory at WrestleMania 34 would see WWE come full circle on what appeared to have been its preliminary plan three years in the past at Royal Rumble … till Reigns was infamously booed out of the sector over the group’s disgust with returning fan-favorite Daniel Bryan being eradicated so early.

There’s loads of cause to imagine the aftermath, together with the Rollins swerve, was a direct results of these boos. It additionally gave WWE time to higher put together Reigns for the second of supplanting Lesnar (by way of firm significance). Three years later, helped by strategic developments just like the current Protect reunion, Reigns is in a a lot better place even among the many most cynical followers.

That does not imply Sunday’s inevitable final result is any simpler to swallow. Whereas imagining a spoiler-free utopia the place WWE can preserve its future inventive plans hermetic won’t be practical, now could be as excellent a time as ever for WWE to dramatically swap course and swerve the “insiders” for the sake of leisure.

If solely that was doable.

It is a notion immediately rendered unlikely when you think about the corporate’s monetary backside line for WrestleMania probably would not change whether or not the 2 names on the marquee are identified 300 days prematurely or three weeks out from its greatest evening. However an excellent greater drawback is how far WWE has backed itself in a reserving nook to make approach for Lesnar-Reigns.

An apparent substitute for Reigns might have been Strowman, who just isn’t solely plausible as a bodily risk to Lesnar however so organically over as a uncommon monster babyface with potential to marry violence and comedy in methods only a few superstars can. But Strowman, other than dramatically breaking all the pieces in web site, spent 2017 doing two vital issues that broken his storyline invincibility: getting pinned clear by each Reigns and Lesnar on pay-per-view.

One other potential swerve, though not doable as a result of WWE determined to maintain Lesnar out of the Elimination Chamber, would’ve been to counter with an excellent sexier Reigns-Cena program, made juicier by Cena’s try at a WWE-record 17th world championship reign.

Regardless of having WrestleMania written throughout it, that dream feud between polarizing babyfaces was rushed after SummerSlam at a minor PPV final fall and lasted only one electrical month. The fruits of Reigns pinning Cena clear at No Mercy, the identical evening Lesnar did the identical to Strowman within the nine-minute essential occasion, did nothing however talk that Lesnar-Reigns was nonetheless in bloom.

WWE additionally spent final fall dashing different potential WrestleMania blockbuster reveals, together with the aforementioned Protect reunion and Kurt Angle’s long-awaited return to the ring, leaving few outs accessible ought to WWE have doubtlessly needed to shake issues up.

The one benefit WWE has at all times held over its non-scripted brethren in fight sports activities has been the flexibility to manage and manipulate who faces whom and what the end result will probably be. That has solely helped gas the limitless actuality followers get pleasure from and the sensation that actually something can occur. Sadly, that feeling is gone coming into Sunday.

Ought to the highway to Lesnar-Reigns and WrestleMania 34 play out as reported, do not anticipate many to be dissatisfied. However here is to hoping WWE has yet one more unseen trick up its sleeve — or not less than a plausible tease of 1 — after such a telegraphed construct to the largest match of the 12 months.

professional - mostly just ties into the stats i wanted for her, haha. although she perhaps had worked with a gun before coming to yharnam, she was relatively spoiled!

where is your hunter from? what brought them to yharnam?

french origin, from a relatively noble family - she came to yharnam when it was beginning to become a prosperous city, as the healing church was just beginning to spread the idea of the power of the blood(?). the idea allured her - the idea of power, and seizing her own identity.

pretty neutral towards the healing church - is the type to have a ‘people are people’ attitude, regardless of if they’re enemies or friends. pretty pro-blood ministration!

do they fear the scourge? are they afraid of turning into a beast? afraid of becoming blood-addled? of the unknown cosmos? what are they afraid of?

the ultimate fear of hers, while quite typical, is death - becoming a vileblood has thus helped counter that, in a way.

n/a, mostly? but she doesn’t take pleasure in killing those who oppose the vilebloods or are unfortunate enough to end up in the path of those from cainhurst.

what is your hunter’s attitude towards gehrman? do they resent being trapped in the hunter’s dream?

n/a.

devoted to annalise and reconstructing the vilebloods - nothing more, and nothing less.

do they have a special place where they feel safe or “at home”? is there a place they’re afraid of or that they avoid?

she has two hairclips always pinned in her hair, and wears a jeweled brooch under her cainhurst armor.

n/a, once again.

how does your hunter feel about being effectively immortal? how do the unending deaths affect them over the course of their time in the dream?

well, again, she doesn’t dream. but in terms of a vileblood lifespan? she loves it.

combat and stats.

which primary stat does your hunter most rely on (strength, skill, bloodtinge, arcane)? do they prioritize vitality or endurance?

bloodtinge/skill - endurance!

what are your hunter’s trick weapon and firearm of choice? why?

reiterpallasch&&evelyn, for those good bloodtinge vilebloods out there.

n/a. she doesn’t at all.

typically only battles humans, and avoids fighting beasts. she does still view them as people, after all.

do they often summon the old hunters or hunters from other worlds to aid them?

nope!

plot decisions

does your hunter’s story deviate from the central plot of bloodborne? in what ways?

haha. there we go. she doesn’t dream, and her story isn’t in the same time frame as the main hunter’s story. she is a permanent cainhurst resident, and doesn’t meet any of the npcs in the game save for perhaps alfred, and of course, annalise.
