CHANNEL

A Human Bonded To An Angel Or Demon.

[Race Made By Ripper]

The Channel is a human that has a demon or angel , perhaps even a god, living inside of them. This does not mean that the being has fully taken over them, nor does it mean that the being is stronger than the human. The human and being are separate, their powers vary from person to person, but it is usually given in great skills Of magick. Even going so far as minor forms of Necromancy and control of elements.

TYPES OF CHANNELS

BASIC--

These are the lower leveled demons or angels that have been summoned up, it is common for these to happen due to the being having lesser power. Their magick is less focused and tends to be less powerful.

ELEMENTAL--

These are slightly more rare than a basic Channel. These have bonded with a Being that has a certain elemental flair to them. In order of rarity it is Water > Wind > Earth > Fire. Fire being the most rare because of the Being's known temper.

SIN//VIRTUE --

These are very rare, this means that a person has bonded with a carnal Sin or Virtue. Their powers are often great, but their lifespan can be shortened greatly, they live in a state of almost constant pain, the severity of it depends on how often they use their gifts.

APPEARANCE

Channels look much like normal humans, with a few minor details. Their skin is usually flawless and either very freezing or very warm to the touch (depending on what kind they are). Their eyes are often vibrant, almost glowing colors. Sometimes heterochromia can develop because there are two different souls in one body. When casting their magick, any scars that they have will glow, the color would depend on them, their eyes often glow or even change color completely. Their canine teeth can seem slightly sharper and their skin get's slightly lighter.

ABILITIES

*Advanced magick control and power.

*For elemental Channels the complete control and conjuration of their element.
-For Water the ability to breathe underwater and, to a small degree, control the blood in their own bodies , or blood that is spilling freely from a wound (not in another persons body). This is useful for stopping a wound from bleeding.

-For wind, minor flying and the ability to change the flow of the wind, this also works for making the wind so fast and fierce that it can cut skin.

-For earth, the power to help things grow and to talk to the tree's. This also allows for better communication with animals.

For Fire, The conjuration of pure fire (sometimes of different colors). Fire is a very destructive force, this is why it is the rarest of the elements, fire is untamed and hard to control once released.

*For A Sin/Virtue their magick is often very powerful and can lead to necromancy, pure alchemy and the like.

WEAKNESSES*

Gold, pure gold burns channels, the spirits within them are harmed by it.

If a Channel uses Blood Magick, tainting their blood can harm them and stop any spell they try to cast with Blood.

Asafoetida – It is used to repel spirits, this weakening the Channel

A circle made of salt can (so long as they aren't too powerful) repel the being and make their spells unable to break through

BECOMING A CHANNEL

If a human is proficient in magick, they can leave themselves open to demons and sometimes angels, though it is rare. More often than not the demons will be summoned be summoned by the humans, but on the rare occasion demons may seek out a skilled human. A channel is made when a human and Demon/Angel bond on a level that doesn't completely take them over, but instead makes them live as two different beings in one body.

The alternative is for the human, mage or not, to die in a horrible way and a demon/angel to take them over, this is one of the most rare kinds and can often lead to the creature going mad.

[GROUP/SOCIAL NEED]

Channels are a very seldom seen in group's, most tend to try and ignore one another or even at times, kill the others of a group.

However sometimes a higher powered Channel will form a coven of sorts, the Sire (leader of said coven) will just slightly gain power for each member there. This is very rare and a dangerous thing if they have ill intent.

WEREWOLF

A Human That Can Shift From Wolf To Human

[Taken Mostly From The Werewolf Wikia]

Werewolfs are a race of people with a congenital disease that causes them to experience periodic temporary metamorphoses into an animalistic state. They are the creation of a very special virus. The werewolf virus is a rare strain of rabies that mutated into a non-fatal form but kept some of the most ferocious side-effects. Although this strain of rabies may not or may kill a person, it does take them over. In normal rabies, the virus tunnels through the nerves directly to the brain, avoiding the immune system. However, this is not the case with the werewolf rabies virus. Werewolfs have the virus in every cell of their body, including the cells of the gonads; which means the werewolf condition is passed onto the children of werewolfs. The werewolf bloodline is complex. It is recessive, not every child gets it. It depends whether the father, mother, or both are werewolfs. Although most werewolfs are born with the condition, there are a few who have contracted it by being bitten by a werewolf. Such a werewolf is known as a "bite-in."

TYPES OF WEREWOLVES

Alpha werewolves are created through being cursed, born a werewolf or by spell or bite. Alpha werewolves turn into wolf-like creatures at the night of the full moon and when they feel threatened. They have the ability to create betas through bites. Betas can also become Alpha werewolves, by killing his/her own Alpha wolf, who overtime become experienced enough and strong enough. Alphas don't necessarily need a pack but in order to be strong they need a pack. Or can form a Alpha pack, just made of Alpha's.


Beta werewolves are people who are bitten by alpha werewolves. Beta werewolf transformations are not as strong as Alpha werewolf transformations and tend to grow slight amounts of hair with elongated nails and teeth. Beta werewolves depend on the alpha werewolf they are under can be forced to transform against their will.

Omega werewolves An Omega is the “lone wolf”; existing without a pack and without an Alpha. They have all the werewolf abilities mentioned above but are considered weaker than other types because they are not part of a pack. Werewolves can become Omegas by choice or be forced out of a pack by the Alpha or by circumstance.

APPEARANCE

They can have glowing eyes.

Red is the default for Alpha's
Yellow is the basic color
Omega's have black eyes
Those who have killed a member of their pack have white eyes.

Their nails are longer and sharper.
They do have fangs.

ABILITIES

Werewolves are a combination of man and wolf. They can turn from human to wolf at will. If they were not born a wolf, they can turn into a wolfish looking human. They do not have any overly human strength, (except in Lupine form because all wolves are stronger than people). While not a power the wolf has senses far, far, far better than a human. In human form things may vary, for instance if the werewolf is a constant shifter his senses will increase to a superhuman level, his flesh will toughen and his nail growth and strength will increase. If he doesn't shift often his senses will dull to a human level when not in form.

WEAKNESSES*

Wolfbane blooms. Werewolves should be qute sensitive to this.

A lunar eclipse will render them powerless.

They cannot cross mountain ash.

Mistletoe is a poison.

BECOMING A WEREWOLF

Genetics. One of the few certainties.

Bitten by a werewolf.

[GROUP/SOCIAL NEED]

Werewolves are a pack type creature. On their own they are weaker. They have a need to seek out others of their kind.

VAMPIRE

An Undead Creature That Feeds On The Living.

The vampire is a creature that feeds on either the blood or the energy of the living. They can feed on both, but most often a vampire will choose one or the other. The vampire is immortal and does not age, with their age they gain power. If a human was killed by a Psychic vampire they can still become a sanguine and vice versa, however the opposite feedings will weaken them for a few years and make them sick.

TYPES OF VAMPIRES

Psychic Vampire-- These feed on the aura and energy of humans. They can kill and turn by completely draining a human of their energy. Any human killed by one of these will come back. These are often rare and tend to be very in control of themselves.

Sanguinary Vampire -- These vampires feed on the blood of humans. They kill and turn others by draining them and giving them some of their blood. These tend to have a temper.

APPEARANCE

Vampires will tend to have skin that seems flawless. Their eyes will become more intense and often will change color. The eye color change will often happen if the vampire had sired a human. If the vampire has made a human into one of them, their eyes will become either red or jet black and their pupils will slit. Older vampires can hide this change, the younger ones cannot.

ABILITIES

Glamour- Vampires will seem more beautiful to the average human


Strength- Vampires will be stronger than an average human.

Speed- Vampires are three times as fast as a normal human being.

WEAKNESSES*

Holy water does make the vampire uncomfortable, it will not kill them however.

Silver injected into the blood (a silver bullet or arrow) can slowly kill the vampire

Feeding on dead blood will cause a comatose like state.

Decapitation will kill them as will destruction of the heart or a very high fall.

BECOMING A VAMPIRE

Being bitten or drained will kill the human. For a psychic vampire if they kill a human the human will turn. The sanguine needs to give the human their blood.

[GROUP/SOCIAL NEED]

Vampires are solitary creatures, however they can travel in pairs usually.
