Introduction
Long ago, when kingdoms were just beginning to grow a kingdom named Ghayth was formed. It seemed the ideal place for anyone to live. It contained mountains, deserts, grasslands, and an ocean to the south. It was the perfect place for anyone to live because it was able to support any form of life. Soon a king was established among the subjects and he was a good king, until something corrupted him. He had been as faithful to the Kingdom as he had been to his wife.
But one day a beautiful maiden, known as a siren appeared, and began the troubles of the Kingdom of Ghayth. She came to the King and sang for him, and soon she seduced him, and began to bend him to her will, like a puppet master and controlling a puppet. First it was small acts of unfaithfulness to his wife, but soon he had murdered his wife and his high advisors, the ones who had helped him with so many of his decisions, decisions that had earned him a place in the history books. The siren loved it. The bloodshed, the thrill she got from convincing him to do such things, it satisfied her more than any physical pleasure.
One day, however, one of the guards caught on to what was really happening. No one had truly believed that the king would do such things as murder, but a guard caught him in the act, and stopped him, managing to snap him out of the siren’s spell, for the time being at least. The King and the guard began to plot revenge against the siren. Soon the day came when they carried it out. The King was the bait, and the guard used something to block his ears from hearing her song as she sang to the King. The guard killed the siren and the King snapped out of the spell, for good this time. But their troubles had only begun.
Before the Siren arrived, the Kingdom had begun to thrive, and still thrived even under the corrupted rule of the King and the siren, but one day all of that changed. The main waterway ran dry, leaving no easy way to get to the ocean from the capitol. Soon mass killings began to spring up in every city in the kingdom, no matter how significant, or insignificant. Everyone suffered at least one loss, if not more. Some family lines were lost forever in these massacres. Finally the cause of all of this was revealed. The siren had a sister, and she was a sorceress. The sorceress was enraged that someone would kill her sister and began to bring suffering and pain upon the entire kingdom for the King’s actions. As a final act of revenge she cursed the King and all of his guards, advisors and anyone else living in the castle. All of them became creatures of the undead, vampires, zombies, that sort of thing. The sorceress left them to their own demise, disappearing, but before she disappeared she called upon the power of weather to drench the kingdom in a torrential downpour forevermore.
The warriors who did not live in the castle were forced to chase the undead occupants of the castle out and away, into a forest on the eastern outskirts of the kingdom, known as the Forest of Phobos. Today it is forbidden to set foot in the forest, and as far as anyone knows, people who have set foot in there have never come out alive.
Within the castle today, everyone is very much alive. There are different warriors that serve under different leaders, each one the master of a specific element. Some of the elements include Darkness, Light, Lightning, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, etc. There are deep seated rivalries between the elements, at least in the leaders of each group, some of the younger trainees and warriors see no sense in it, since, after all, they were supposed to be training to control their powers to help defend one kingdom.
The capitol is the hub of most of the rain, standing water covers the ground most of the time. All races of humans and creatures live here and throughout the entire kingdom for that matter. Most of the beings living in the kingdom are unaware of the undead part of the curse and are only aware of the rain part, because they must face that everyday. The castle is large and in the very center of the capitol. Its towers reach high into the dark rain clouds and it has a medieval structure to it. It is made of a very dark stone that looks black in the darkness of the rain that perpetually falls everyday. The economy is thriving again, and it’s been over five hundred years since the curse befell the kingdom. No one really minds the rain anymore, they are used to it. It’s the sudden appearance of vampires and undead creatures that has started to cause a panic. Where did they come from? Remember no one really knows or remembers the curse that caused the king and his family and close advisors and guards to become undead. But of course creatures of the night live in other kingdoms and have the ability to travel as well as you or I, so perhaps some of these creatures aren’t related to the curse at all…

Black List:
There currently isn't anyone on this list, and let's keep it that way. 3nodding
And what RP is complete without a potential black list? I doubt that in this guild I'll have to put someone down on the list, but we'll see.

Alyia sat in her room, watching the rain hitting the window with the same sound it always made, and that it had been making ever since she could remember. She sighed, placing a hand on the glass, feeling the cool chill of it run from her palm through her arm and into her back, all the way to her wings, causing the feathers to ruffle lightly. Finally she moved away from the window, brushing a few pieces of reddish-brown hair from her vibrant blue eyes. She walked to the corner of her small room, picking up her scythe and heading to the covered training area. The halls were quiet, all the servants were down in their quarters, and most everyone else was in bed as well. She moved down the stairs at a slow pace, taking in the rare peace that flowed through the halls. She smiled a small smile was she fingered the blade of her scythe for a moment before walking out into the covered the area. So far no one was there, that was good, she preferred training alone. She spun her scythe quickly, letting it form a small tornado as she pushed her powers over air and wind into it. She smiled as the tornado grew in size. Finally with a flick of her wrist the tornado disappeared, leaving a strange stillness in the air where it had just been. As she stood there she heard a rustling sound in the bushes that bordered one side of the covered area. She glanced over and saw a pale hand sticking out of the bushes. She went over cautiously, her scythe at the ready, but when she got there she found nothing that would attack her, only someone dead. She pulled the body out and looked at its deathly pale features, she recognized him as one of the guards, one of the top guards. How had he died? She didn’t find any visible wounds that would be fatal. She did however find two puncture wounds right where his jugular was on his neck. Her eyes grew wide at the sight and she quickly looked around, wondering if any of the guards were coming around the walls yet. So far, she didn’t see anyone. Were they all dead? She prayed that that was not the case. She quickly headed for the door of the castle, ready to go inside and raise the alarm that one of the guards was dead.

Crow was outside in the rain his Katanas unsheathed. He hated the battlegrounds and preferd to practice in the courtyard. he was spinning with his blades battling a shdowclone as he sighed his wings blocking attacks as he saw alyia. He sighed at her beautiful she was noticing her before but as a warrior she would never notice him. He looked and saw her running off "My lady...whats the matter" he asks as he kicks the shadowclone making him disapear as he sheaths his blades "Anything i can help with" He asks with a bow spreading his large black wings.

Despite the situation, Alyia couldn't help but smile as Crow bowed to her. "You don't need to bow..." She looked at him and then remembered the dead guard. "There's a guard dead near the training grounds... there are two punctures in his neck, right where the jugular is... I think he as completely drained of blood." She looked at Crow and did her best to keep the panic from her eyes. "We need to raise the alarm..." She was already heading for the door.

He nodded softly "AS you comand" he says and flys to the bell tower hitting the bell alarm as the bell begains to go off as he throws a massive fire ball at the other the rain putting most of it out leaving just enough to hit the other bell to make it ring as well as he sees a woman fleeing and he jumped down "Get inside" he says unsheathing his Katanas.

Alyia sighed. She hated the formalities, but at the moment she didn't wish to contest him. She didn't follow him up to the bell tower and she had her scythe at the ready, waiting for him to return. She realized very quickly that something was most definitely wrong and she shook her head. "I'm not leaving until the person is either dead, or had fled for the moment." Her scythe was held tightly in her hands.

Alyia nearly slapped her forehead. "Of course... why didn't I put those two together... bite marks, blood drained... they both point to vampire." She let out a sigh and looked at Crow, nodding to his comment. "Yes..." She looked at his katanas and smiled slightly. "I learned how to fight with katanas first, though... it was an interesting transition."
