Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ghouls cannot control their bite ability. They're like snakes, it's just a mixture their body conjures up. Either like a heavy mixture of hormones that changes the persons behavior (until their body filters out the imbalance), or some type of chemicals that effect the individual (some might be like drugs where they're more relaxed, some might make the individual sick like injecting them with a food poisoning, etc, etc). Keep in mind the harsher the effect, the shorter amount of time it should last. A single bite can't really inject someone with enough of the excretion to keep them paralyzed for longer than a couple minutes at best (in Hale's case). But his brother's bite which just makes the individual feel woozy and faint takes a few hours to fade away since the person's organs need time to filter it outta their system.

Their secretion is nothing magical-based that they have any influence over. They can't do a bite that allows them to control someone's movements. They might be able to cause hallucinations, but they won't be able to control the hallucinations. They can just inject the mixture and that's that.

Ghouls do have control over when they release the secretion, though. When they are eating, drinking, or chewing gum they obviously aren't gonna be shooting out that secretion all over the place (It would be exhausting too. They wouldn't be able to produce enough to keep up!). So they can just bite someone normally without releasing the secretion if they want.

Do they have any good schools and universities in Saxon? Do they give scholarships? o .o;

Are psychic mages strictly telepathic, or are there telekinetic psychics as well? Are their abilities limited to one or the other?

How long does it usually take for a character profile to be accepted?

It depends on their situation.

9 time out of 10, if a slave has a child they're given permission by their master to do so. If a slave were to get knocked up and they didn't have permission I imagine the master would simply have them get an abortion. It's really bad to have extremely young children in slave shops. Slave shops aren't adoption agencies. Most people don't use them for that purpose.

Anyways, as for their upbringing, it really depends on their environment. If the master wishes to pay for the slave's child to go get an education there are a lot of private or trade schools that are set up for slaves. It can teach them useful skill sets. Slaves don't have to be educated though. So sometimes a slave can keep their child and they'll grow up learning housework and helping out with the family's needs. If that's the case, their parents will probably teach them things during their down time each day.

During the teen years it's pretty common for slaves to give up their kids and they'll be placed in a slave shop. Families might not want the second slave for life. They were raised in the home and are now grown up, so while the parents will probably keep contact, the child will be placed into a shop. Slave shops will often hire people to come in and teach them skill sets (as it'll help them get sold off quicker). So if they see a good candidate for some type of guard, they'll hire someone to come in and teach them the ins-and-outs of the job for maybe two hours a day or something.

Lastly, if a slave finds themselves in the Slaver Division for some reason or another, they'll go through a process of mental evaluation and rehabilitation. The Slave Division works with a lot of like... Consider them "foster homes" for slaves. People who take slaves home with them, teach them skill sets, and return them at a later date. It's their job. They'd get the most individual attention in a scenario like this. Then once they are done with the slave, they'll be placed into a slave shop where they can be sold off.

So while you're building their backstory that type of training can come from a lot of different places! If you wanna ask about a specific possibility let me know.

Yup! A slave is their property. They can do as they see fit with it.

Hi hi, um, hopefully this isn't neglect on my part but I'm not sure where to post the profiles if they're waiting to be approved, do they go in pending and then just moved to the accepted area's or do we post them in the accepted areas and just wait to be accepted?

Okay, thank you.
