OOC - Count Dracula :: Twice Undead (Briefing and "Rules")

[Vampire King]

Hey guys, I mentioned the idea a while back about Dracula having a blog kind of thing going to take revenge on Van Helsing and humankind etc, etc, etc...

The first post is coming right after this!!

As for game rules.. you can participate casually, I'm not expecting too much from you. If you really want to make a character for yourself, go for it (and I'd be grateful)! Give me a name and a brief background description of your vampire identity. (Remember you guys will be random individual vampires in the modern day world, who may or may not decide to be Dracula's partners in crime, aka vampire minions/followers.)

It's basically Dracula's blog and he's confiding in you guys to help him out with his plan, with surviving in modern day, and giving your input, thoughts, suggestions, etc...

Also, I'm in the process of developing some kind of plot as well, and I think I've got a general idea at the moment... But anyways, the first post written!

Hope you have fun and enjoy it~! :konrad:

Well, first reply to get your rp off the ground. I like the concept, especially with how open it is.

As for my character, I hope this South American street vamp can help Drac out:

Name: Terra Bianca
Sex: Female
Age: 22, turned in 1997
Country and Ethnicity: Brazilian, mixed Portuguese and English ancestry
Feeding Style: Lone Wolf, Gang Associate

I like the sound of this a lot!

Seems the aim of the game should be some relatively young "modern" vamps to help Drac out.

I'll just use the same nice template as above, I can expand it if you'd like VK.

Name: Aiden Thompson (Handle: NightPhreak)
Sex: Male
Age: 42 but sired when 23 (Born 6/8/1971, turned 21/9/1994)
Ethnicity: Irish
Current Country: USA
Feeding Style: Lone Wolf
Background:
Aiden was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland during the troubles. Due to the violent period his family moved to New York to start a new life.
Aiden never seem to excel at much and was often involved in petty crime, his only interest was in using computers. Already involved in crime it was a small step for him to become involved in the hacker culture as he grew older.
Since the early 90's he has worked as a freelance hacker involved with small gangs, mostly very petty work. He also takes small freelance programming jobs to pay the bills but works from home. None of this changed after he was sired except now some of those who hire him don't have a pulse.

BTW Made a post! I hope it's okay, we're on a forum or chat room are we? (As we're signing our posts?)
Also I'm assuming cameras can catch humans since digital camera and other types like disposables don't involve mirrors.

Again, awesome idea for a RP.

Name: Marcus Tinder
Sex: Male
Age: 32 (sired at 23) (Born 29/1/1982, turned 4/11/2005)
Place of birth: Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, England
Profession: Finance and Investment Advisor, The City (London)
Feeding Style:
- Lone Wolf - Sometimes, the need to feed and to stalk something creeps upon Marcus, and then he will slip into the streets, clubs and bars of London to find someone to feed from; he does this alone, preferring not to associate with others of his kind in person - too many will, he is certain, draw too much attention to them.
- Spider - As a financial and investment advisor within London's City, Marcus has a great many contacts and friends - many of whom could be considered 'thralls', although he finds that archaic - who point the influential and would-be wealthy in his direction. In this way, he has discovered that he can draw those he wants to feed from to him, rather than going to hunt them, thus drawing less attention to himself.
Background: Marcus Tinder was born to an upper-middle class family in Buckinghamshire, his father a London solicitor. He attended the best schools to be had, got into a high-flying university and was soon an intern in one of the City's finest institutions, and after was offered his first job. It took him only three years to become an indispensable member of the business and be offered a position as partner.
It was then that his sire, a nouveau riche business man going by the name of Gerald Toolan, turned him. He had been a valued client for years, and has continued to visit Marcus over the past nine years, but Marcus doesn't otherwise associate with his fellow vampires in person - he is much too careful for that.

Aiden goes by NightPhreak when online, just a little addition due to being a "Hacker" :tongue:

Just a quick notice, I'm going to stick your threads together. Having one thread after another would quickly lead to the forum overflowing.

Hope this isn't an inconvenience.
