Yesh :)<br /> <br /> I might have delays as well, depending on school work, but I should be okay ^^

Alright, is everyone ready to start this? Sorry for such a delay! Been super super busy, hopefully things will be chilled out a little now!<br /> <br /> I'll post tomorrow but if anyone else wishes to start it, feel free!

Name: Envy<br /> <br /> Age: Unknown age, but he looks to be in his late teens<br /> <br /> Species: Chimera, half human and half wolf<br /> <br /> Guardian (Y/N): Yes<br /> <br /> Special Abilities(Only ONE allowed): He can turn into halfway into a wolf<br /> Description: Envy is of average height with long brown hair in a ponytail reaching his waist, a blue and yellow eye, and is lean yet fairly muscular. <br /> <br /> Clothing Preference (this can help you avoid having to describe clothes all the time): He wears a green jacket that covers his chest and half of one arm. His midriff is exposed. He wears leather pants that end in ankle boots. His tail is often held high behind him.<br /> <br /> Personality: A little over confident at times, he can warm up to those he finds trustworthy. He is extremely loyal and loves receiving treats after a job well done (said treats are actually raw steaks). When he transforms, he can become more arrogant and ruthless.<br /> <br /> Likes: Raw meat, being pet, sneaking on unwary humans, taking a walk during the night<br /> <br /> Dislikes: liars, untrustworthy people, humans who aren’t humble.<br /> <br /> History: A chimera with unknown origin, he was first found wandering around the Shadow Valley many years ago. He was tested on originally when he was discovered, but when his strength was evident, he was brought into the ranks of guardian. He uses his transformation skills only when fighting, but it was said that if an unfortunate human ever came across him while he was in mid transform, they would be blind forever. This of course is just a fake tale told to scare people. <br />

Name: Skylar (female)<br /> Age: 113<br /> Species: Mermaid<br /> Guardian (Y/N): N<br /> Special Abilities: Just shape shifting (growing tail in water)<br /> Description: Skylar is tall, long black hair, crystal blue eyes, her skin is slightly tanned always, she is thin but in shape<br /> Clothing Preference: Usually in something blue, jeans with t-shirts or tank tops<br /> Personality: she mostly keeps to herself, though if someone talks to her she will be polite and friendly<br /> Likes: swimming, water, being outdoors<br /> Dislikes: rain, deserts, sweets<br /> History: She volunteered to live in the valley since the lake she had been living in was polluted and she has no family left.

<b>Name:</b> Jack Cromwell<br /> <b>Age:</b> 213<br /> <b>Species:</b> Vampire*<br /> <b>Guardian (Y/N):</b> No<br /> <b>Special Abilities:</b> Can shift into a magpie at will [read: if scared]<br /><b>Description:</b> Jack is of average height with black hair, fair skin and green eyes. About the only tale tale sign of his nature one might see is a glimpse of some fangs as he grins.<br /> <b>Clothing Preference:</b> During the day full protection is a must, long coat, pants hat and sunglasses. However, that is too hot therefore he will avoid it as much as possible. If he has no need to protect himself from getting crispy, a t-shirt and jeans are what he prefers.<br /> <b>Personality:</b> Jack is rather out going and friendly with other people, including complete strangers. However, he will avoid conflict and flee from any fight. His main interest is his own survival and well being, if that is threatened he will leave post haste unless there is some enormous gain to be had.<br /> <b>Likes:</b> Flirting with people in general, mostly in jest or for his own amusement. Also likes to play games, more of the card variety, he can generally be found to have a deck on him.<br /> <b>Dislikes:</b> Conflict, again he will avoid this if at all possible. Jack is also very wary of people knowing his true nature, after all after 200 years or so you learn extreme caution in letting people know you are what is considered a monster which should be exterminated.<br /> <b>History:</b> Jack does not linger on what has been, rather he is more interested in the now. He spent most of his youth in the early Americas frequently changing towns as the need arose. He might have been born in the 1700s, but this doesn't mean he still thinks like they used to, times have changed and he along with them. Staying the same is boring, and more it makes you stick out of the crowd, and Jack would much prefer to blend in. As for why he moved to the valley? Well, its a nice reprieve from worrying that human's might find him out and hunt him down. A sanctuary of sorts, as long as he can keep to the rules...<br /> <br /> *I would like to make a note I do NOT base my vampires on all that hollywood crap. Rather I go back to the original folk lore and build from there. I throw in a dash of common sense as well, so if Jack doesn't work or act like any vampire you have heard of, that is why.<br /> <br /> <hr><br /> <br /> <b>Name:</b> Xian<br /> <b>Age:</b> 24<br /> <b>Species:</b> Kirin <br /> <b>Guardian (Y/N):</b> Yes<br /><b>Special Abilities:</b> Nothing aside from his innate ability to change form [kirin or human].<br /> <b>Description:</b> Xian is leukistic, for those that do not know it is similar to albinism, but is simply a reduction in pigment, not total absence. <br /> <br /> As a Human - He has such light blonde hair is can be said to be white or cream but has deep blue eyes. His skin is pale and will easily sun burn if not properly protected. He also retains the kirin tail in this form, however, he keeps it hidden so it's very unlikely to notice it. This is how he looks most of the time.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqswyqDAvT1qhbsq5o1_500.jpg">As a Kirin</a> - Xian has large sweeping antlers. A thick mane of hair resides on his neck, as well as longer hair on the end of his tail and around the hooves. He is heavily scaled in the front and less so on the back portion of his body, these act as an armor if he needs to fight. He mostly only uses this form if he has need to fight or flee.<br /> <b>Clothing Preference:</b> Xian prefers loose unrestrictive clothing, he is more concerned with the clothing's function than fashion. He will almost always have a jacket or hoodie in an attempt to prevent sunburns, unless it is too hot in which case he would rather seek shade than over heat.<br /> <b>Personality:</b> Xian tends to be rather sharp and to the point. It takes a lot to make friends, he is naturally suspicious of others and likes to keep more of a distance. Once he counts you among his friends though, he can be counted on upon in good times or bad. As far as the law goes he stays impartial, friend or no and cuts no one slack.<br /> <b>Likes:</b> Xian generally prefers the solitude and peace of nature to the company of others. He can be frequently be found in the shade of a tree sketching the scenery. However, he does enjoy spending time around those he calls friend, at least in small groups.<br /> <b>Dislikes:</b> As much as he loves solitude, Xian hates large crowds. Such a situation grates on his nerves as he is the type who likes to be fully aware of what actions others may be doing, which is quite impossible in a large crowd. If forced to be in a large group he is more likely to slink off to a corner than socialize. <br /> <b>History:</b> Xian does not bother with elaborating on his past, instead preferring to wave it off. It is not full of bad memories or past horrors, rather as he would put it, bland and unimportant. Xian volunteered to be a part of the experiment, more in interest of not having to deal with the growing human population than anything. After all, the number of people in the project are not in the billions, its much less stressful.

She has blue eyes and long, wavy blonde hair that she often has tied at least partially back. <br /> Clothing Preference(this can help you avoid having to describe clothes all the time): She tends to wear dresses a lot, but she will also be content in jeans and a t-shirt, so, really could be anything<br /> Personality: Reina is very outgoing and friendly.

She agreed to being a test subject in this town; while she misses her old friends and is sad she had to leave them without a word, she also hopes that someday the Shadow Valley experiment will go global and the supernatural could truly live with humans.<br /> <br /> <br /> Name: Aiden (male)<br /> Age: 30 years (young for a shape shifter, doesn't any older than 20)<br /> Species: Supernatural/Shape Shifter (Coyote)<br /> Guardian (Y/N): No<br /> Special Abilities(Only ONE allowed): None aside from shape shifting<br /> Description: Aiden has messy, layered black hair that goes past his shoulders a little. He has silver eyes, pale skin and is fairly tall (6'3") and lanky in form.<br /> Clothing Preference(this can help you avoid having to describe clothes all the time): Tight fitting jeans & a long sleeve button up dress-type shirt<br /> Personality: Aiden is very arrogant; he often looks down on other people, though he does so in a playful enough manner that most don't hate him for it. He's not very careful and is rather quick to make actions. <br /> Likes: Causing trouble, social situations, other supernatural creatures, a good steak dinner, being outside, warm weather<br /> Dislikes: People with no sense of humor, Guardians & most people, being locked up indoors for any purpose<br /> History: Aiden was forcefully put into Shadow Valley after causing trouble in the human world on numerous occasions. It's seen as a sort of punishment for his rugged history, but he's not too caring about being part of a testing process.
