Character Name & Journal: Elizabeth "Red" Matherson infared
Type: Original (models.com)
Age: 22
Physical Appearance: 5'8", slim build with red hair and minor freckling. Has curlicue tattoos on the back of her neck spreading down her back.
Personality: Confident, fun-loving and spontaneous, Red loves nothing more than surprising people. She's warm and loving, and very protective of her friends.

Powers: Mild telepathy. Ability to put people to sleep. Also capable of rapid healing, and the power to give/take away years from someone - reverse or speed up the aging process.
Weaknesses: All her powers are limited to physical touch - she can't do anything if her skin is covered, or if she can't physically make contact with someone.
History/Background: Red came from a family of privilege, went to an Ivy League collage...then, when she turned 21, her powers emerged, and she was to undergo massive medical testing and study. She promptly dropped out and "disappeared". She abandoned her old life in favour of a new one, hiding from the spotlight, only wanting to live her life in peace.
Red wants to be a singer, and is currently working under a pseudonym. She's taking some courses at the local college.

Lyrerius is a thriving city tucked into a bay on the west coast of North America. You can find everything you need - schools, parks, libraries, churches, hospitals - and it even boasts its own college. There's a small film studio in the downtown district, and tiny shops hold wondrous treasures.

The hustle and bustle of the day is quickly emptied by night. Strange things happen with the sun goes down. Most humans are unaware of what goes on after dark, but know enough to stay off the streets unless there's an emergency.

The other people that live in the city are everything but human. If you move here, odds are you're one of us. We're everywhere - those of us who can go out in the sunlight have human jobs and go to school with human children. We even have an inside partnership with the human mayor of the city. There's an underground connection to every major building in town, and that's what you use if you can't go out during the day.

It's running smoothly, but that won't last for too much longer.

Although the humans currently outnumber us, we're growing in population and can't always hide our powers. This isn't known for being a tolerant city, and many humans openly hate others. If we can just overcome our distrust of each other...

Once you've been accepted, post your character's profile to the OOC community. Welcome!

Core Rules:

1) Sex will happen. Violence will happen. Be mature about this. Please lock all R-rated posts (and higher) to members only.

2) Post an application to join. You don't have to write an essay, but if you just give one-liners, you're going to be asked for more details. Remember to add a disclaimer on your character's journal if you're taking him or her from a fandom or real person.

3) No flames and no god-modding: if there's a problem, contact one of the mods first.

4) You MUST post a profile of your character for the public to see. We want to know what he or she is like! If you wish to change the profile, you may do so at any time. Characters evolve, and it's great to see development. Every so often, please update your character's journal.

5) Don't be afraid to get creative! We're not based in our reality, so feel free to draw from your favourite fandoms. Remember though, if you suddenly give your character x-ray vision, you have to change your profile - and give an explanation.
