~Grey Shadows~
Started By
Hello fellows RPers(: So I was looking through the forums and I noticed that most RPs are wolf or warrior cats. I feel that there is a loss of humanistic RPs lately. So I decided to make one! Please read and enjoy. I will put an overview at the bottom for everyone but please read the longer version before you join! I will also put some rules, the skelly for your character and my limitations with them. Most important, enjoy! And I may be posting later to update, such as new characters that have joined. The start date for this RP I will set as July 20th possibly sooner, but you may enter applications before then.

The Story

Grey Shadows was an immensely social place a few years ago. In today’s time though most people would refer to it more as a dark dingy town where people from all over the world come to stay. Towns’ people who have lived in Grey Shadows their entire lives are beginning to question their choice to stay. Strange things are beginning to accompany many of the towns’ new residents. Some may even refer to these residents as wanderers who have nowhere else to go. These towns’ people have no idea what they are getting into though.
Some inhabitants of this town are very familiar with one another though. They even may have met at an old school or two secretly hidden throughout the world at some point. They don't talk much about their past but most normal people wouldn't wait around for them to.
Have you ever heard of Others? There has been a whisper through the old broken town. No normal person likes to speak of them. They are said to be shape shifters, changing their appearance into a dark animal in the night. Others are said to suck blood from human victims or even turn into an evil wolf-like creatures at every full moon.
In a place like Grey Shadows though, ideas such as these are frowned upon and never to be spoken about. In a dark stone walled bar, halfway through the town from the old castle, the Others relax waiting for the next attack, the next play. Some may even been fighting their own battle. Even walking the streets of normal neighborhoods, but none of this is normal especially from the people that live there. These Others are looked down upon and though some have suspicions, nothing has been proven to this day. No one is really safe or can tell how they will leave this town for good.



Overview
You will become a supernatural character living in an old fashioned style neighborhood and you may have a bad or good past, whichever you prefer. Your character will be living his/her life though this town and all the troubles that comes along with it. The two types of people that live in Grey Shadows are normal people who refuse to believe that supernatural beings exist and “Others” who are the supernaturals.

-Rules-
- All regular forum rules apply here!
- No cursing here please. There are certainly other methods to express this
- Please no over use of power. Yes supernaturals are stronger than normal humans but in a fight then you must make them as equally matched as possible.
- When saying something out of character please use
OCC:
Or put your speech in parentheses ()
Please read over them in case you don’t remember them.

Aelia shifted uncomfortably and nodded slightly. "Uh..yeah." She muttered, rubbing her hand through her hair. She looked up and jumped, pulling herself up onto a low treebranch and perching there.

07-31-2012 at 6:31 PM
"Nice to meet you." Ashley said and finished the cigarette. He rubbed it against a tree and threw it on the ground. Ashley yawned and watched Valcon leave. "Weird guy." He said and chuckled.

07-30-2012 at 6:43 PM
(It's okay Nafia, I am sorry you couldn't keep up)

07-30-2012 at 6:43 PM
The water came up to Core's knees and she walked through trying to trap it. It took her a few minutes but she finally got it. Pleased with herself she sat back on the shore and threw it in. <br /> <br /> Valcon looked at Ashley. "It's okay" he said looking back around through the trees. "Where..." he mumbled to himself walking around.

07-30-2012 at 6:37 PM
(I'm gonna drop out of this RP because I cannot keep up, sorry)

07-30-2012 at 7:21 AM
Aelia snorted and bit back a remark about his smoking. She rubbed her sensitive nose and stared blankly at him.<br /> "Aelia." She mumbled.

07-29-2012 at 3:50 PM
Ashley sighed "my name is Ashley Purdy, what's yours?" Ashley kept an eye on Valcon. Ashley took a few steps backwards. He leaned against a tree and lit a cigarette. He took a drag and looked up at Aelia again.

07-29-2012 at 6:53 AM
Aelia briefly bared her teeth and stepped back, staring at the man who'd just appeared.<br /> "Who are you." She growled low.

07-29-2012 at 6:30 AM
Ashley got up and walked out the door. Ashley decided to walk in the forest. Ashley bolted to the forest and almost ran into Valcon. "Sorry." He said laughing. Ashley stepped back and noticed Aelia from the way the wind blew.

07-29-2012 at 4:56 AM
Aelia glanced down at the ground as she heard a rustling. She spotted a man staring up at her and she slowly climbed down the tree. Once she'd fumbled her way out of the tree she brushed her hands off on her jeans.

Noki was still walking and decided to go back to the forest. She sat on the tree and started playing games on her phone.she then got bored and then she just laid back.

07-28-2012 at 10:14 AM
She swung her legs and then turned, so her back was to the tree. She stretched her legs over the branch and lowered her heard, folding her arms and staring over the forest, smiling to herself. She briefly thought she saw someone looking down at her from below, but usually, the only living beings in this forest are either animals, or Others.

07-28-2012 at 10:10 AM
Core saw a fish and didn't think about what she was doing. She dove a hand in after it but missed slightly. She took off her bag and jacket, throwing them behind her and stepping into the water. <br /> <br /> <br /> Valcon dozed peacefully until a howl woke him. He looked for the source, sitting down before getting up and walking swiftly through the forest. Finally he saw someone in the branches of a tree, the wolf from before, he concluded in his head

07-28-2012 at 10:06 AM
Aelia sat on a particularly high branch and yawned, placing a hand in front of her face. She swung her legs slightly and grinned to herself. She looked up to the sky and let out a long howl, mostly to scare the normal people around Grey Shadows. She lowered her head again and closed her eyes, sitting alone.

07-27-2012 at 11:50 PM
Noki then stopped crying and went to walk more.she got her phone out and her earbuds and plugged it into her phone.then she put one in her ear and put music on.

07-27-2012 at 9:25 PM
Ashley sat down on his bed and started up his laptop. Ashley drank his redbull in silence as he waited. Ashley crushed the can when he finished and threw it. He looked at the computer when it completely died. He whimper and shut it.

07-27-2012 at 6:21 PM
Core moved through the trees quickly. On the other side awaited her oasis, as she called it. She emerged into the little opening, a slight smile coming to her lips. Taking her heavy boots off, she sat on a rock near the edge and played in the water, amusing herself. <br /> <br /> Valcon paced through the forest. He sighed deeply before sitting against a tree and closing his eyes. He was just listening to the noises of the forest, and the others in there. In his mind, he almost dared one of them to come and jerk him out of his trance
