<span class="bbc_u"><strong>The basic story:</strong></span><br/><br/>Though mostly unknown, there are a number of Accursed Bloods scattered around the world. These Accursed Bloods have found they possess the power to turn into a creature that best reflects their personality. Some may be 'normal' creatures like cats, birds, snakes, deer, horses and the like, while others are of mythical stature like dragons, harpies, unicorns, pegasi, and even demons. Some have been discovered and now every one of them is being hunted down. Finding each other, they band together to fight the onslaught. Each were creature has a human form, a morph form (halfway between human and animal), and a full animal form. In some cases they can even take on minor aspects of their creature either only as instinctual and uncontrollable (such as growing hair when it's cold or increasing their speed when in danger, etc.) or can control them for a limited amount of time (like growing claws or fangs on command but only every few hours or so, a couple times a day, etc.).<br/><br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Profile Form:</span></strong><br/><br/>Username:<br/>Character Name:<br/>Age: (please be realistic to how long the average of your animal lives)<br/>Gender:<br/>Height:<br/>Weight:<br/>Accursed Creature:<br/>Innate Abilitie(s): (instinct OR limited control maximum 3)<br/>Occupation: If applicable<br/>Appearance: If you want to use a picture, please put the LINK here.

I say they will be posted here because not everyone who decides to participate will be accepted, but so that the adult parts of the story/plot are still available for the people who are accepted, to read<br/><br/>Please, when creating a deviating thread, send me the link and the title. Also, please do NOT make it vital to read to understand what is going on in the main RP><br/>______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Rules (sadly I think we need them):</strong></span><br/><br/>1) Please adhere to the limited control OR instinctual ability option. You can only have one or the other and can only be at half the power of that ability in full beast form.<br/><br/>2) Think outside the box for creature! PLEASE. XP<br/><br/>3) You MUST BE REGULARLY ACTIVE! I'm kinda tired of this RP dying as early as it has been!<br/><br/>4) If you do not post regularly for<span class="bbc_u"><em>ONE MONTH (30 days)</em></span>without giving me an acceptable reason (that I MUST approve) why you can not I, SxyCowgirl, reserve the right to take control of your character and/or kill them off! (REASON FOR INABILITY TO POST REGULARLY ONLY an option FOR TEMPORARY HIATUS!)<br/><br/>5) If you choose not to be a part of this RP anymore, tell me IN THIS THREAD and I will take over your character and reserve the right to control them as I choose including killing them off.<br/><br/>6) DO NOT RP IN THIS THREAD AND DO NOT POST OOC IN THE RP THREAD! ALL OOC must be posted here!<br/><br/>7) You may have up to THREE (3) characters! No more than that.<br/><br/>8) Be respectful to everyone here in the OOC, and before doing something (<del>attacking</del>injuring, mind-controlling, etc.) to another person's character(s), ASK THEM FIRST! It's rude not to and it will NOT be tolerated!<br/><br/>9) PLEASE don't have your characters run off on their own for too long. A little bit of off to the side, doing their own thing is fine, but keep the MAIN STORY PLOT in mind. Your characters are being HUNTED!<br/><br/>10) If you have your character stays away from the group too long (longer than 24 hours in the RP) I, SxyCowgirl reserve the right to 'send an assassin beyond your character's fighting abilities' to force them back to the group. (If you're concerned about this rule and need more clarification, ASK!!!!!! I won't bite.)<br/><br/>11) Age limit: 1,500 years old. Rosa is an 'ancient dragon', has been living in a cave for most of her life and is this age due to hiding from humanity, honing her abilities and knows nothing else.<br/><br/>12) You may 'train' to enhance control of certain abilities: 50 years = decent control, 100 years = great control, 300 years = exceptional control, 500+ years = mastery. (Please keep in mind, the age limit is 1,500 years.)<br/><br/>13) Have fun with it! The only thing I ask is please try to stick to the story as much as possible!<br/>______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Other Important Information:</strong></span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">"Before posting where you're coming in, please discuss it here."<br/>"Please read other people's profiles so we don't have more than one of the same exact animal and/or career/job."<br/>"When changing between full human and full animal, clothes are lost.
