Alright Guys, I'm going to give you three different plots, and a character Skeleton. This is for practicing and improving your character making skills as a roleplayer.
Oh joy!!

I ask that if you decide to make a character for all three plot scenarios that you do not make three different posts, but edit your original post. You will be given honest feedback on how to improve (if you need improving) and anyone who makes fun of you will be hit with the ban stick!!

Plot 1: (1x1 romance)

Plot by crayons 4 the color blind
It's always hard losing a loved one. Even harder when everyone want's to pretend he didn't exist. Worse still when your father is trying to marry you off to some creep.
They were together, friends from birth and eventually they decided they would pair off together as mates. They never had a chance to go through the official ceremonies, as he was killed in a hunt a week before.

Alexandra and her Marcus, that was what was frequently said of the werewolf princess and her love. Her father, well he blatantly ignored it, at one point in time he would have been fine with his daughter pairing off with someone out of love. But those times were long gone. War was upon them, as it usually was, but this time it was serious. The vampires and the werewolves had long been the dominant species on the planet and the human knew it, they simply stayed out of the way and avoided the more and more frequent arguments between the two species. It has turned into an all out war. The vampires and the werewolves have never liked each other much, and finally the king (or alpha) of the werewolves proposed a solution, as was normal for medevil times, they would marry off their children. Alexandra would be wedded to the vampire prince.

Alexandra is far from happy about this. ******** duty, she says. Marcus was to be her life mate and the only one she would ever have. The vampires are appalled and angry, at the "mutt" refusing what was one of the most amazing examples of vampire flesh since Dracula. Who is she to refuse their prince? They all mutter angrily and lash out at the werewolf population. Her father is angry and blaming the increasing fatalities of their kin on her and she finally runs away.

Now, the prince is a clever one. Though rather young for a vampire he is quick on his feet and sharp as a blade. He proposes a plan to his father, let him track the girl down and befriend her. Not as prince of the vampires, but as just another normal vampire. Not all of them hate each other, he reasoned. And his father relented, decreeing that all vampires would help his son and speak nothing of the switch.
What? You couldn't just leave the throne empty, his doppelganger would take the place of the prince, act in his stead so the prince would be able to move around freely. With the prince out and about, searching for Alexandra the war becomes even more dangerous, some will help the girl, some will help the prince. There is no telling what may happen with war going on, and many would see the princess used for their own advantage. If the vampires want her so badly then why not bring her to them? It is chaotic, but perhaps love will prevail?

Plot2: (multiple person action)

Plot by Troubled Monster
Lucky for us the good guys always win, especially when super powers come into the mixture.

Common criminals had been plaguing cities since the beginning of time. They were a nuisance yes, but nothing the government couldn’t handle. It wasn’t until the appearance of a man with a taste for the theatric that crime started to uproot society and reign over the police’s domain.
“Fido” is what the media had nicknamed him: A daring thief that beat even the toughest security systems and ridiculed the entire justice system. The funny thing was, he did it all dressed as a dog. Well not exactly a dog. He took the classic comic book super villain to a whole new level. With his dog themed costume, full of leather and spikes, Fido was rumored to possess inhuman abilities.

Suddenly everything started to click.

How else could one man have robbed every store on 5th avenue!? Things only got worse one Fido rounded up a gang of mangy dogs….which were really thugs in dog masks. Even the various mafias were afraid to commence with their nightly drug trades.

For a while, it seemed the crazy guy in a dog costume ruled over “Andromeda” the most industrialized city in the world.
Finally enough was enough; a team of two super heroes were employed by the government to get this mutt behind bars.
It took months to get any trace of Fido, who was literally mocking the heroes. Finally the older member of the super duo stumbled upon Fido during a heist. The collateral was immense, but more astonishing was the super duo, had been cut down to a solo.
Fido had made his first kill.

With the blood of a gallant hero staining the sidewalks and the streets overrun with mad dogs, Andromeda had had enough.
Now without her partner, the super heroine vowed to capture Fido and bring him behind bars. It took weeks, and God knows the battle was great, but the heroine had her revenge.

Fido was taken into police custody and tried on accounts of robbery, illegal conduct, kidnapping and murder.

From then on, the notorious masked villain would spend his life behind bars.

That was the last of him, and just the beginning for Andromeda’s most valued heroine.
It has been two years since Fido has been locked away. So far the only other person in existence to easily expose their super powers is the heroine who continues to clean up the streets.

Everything seems to be going well and the heroine is working very closely with the government who is conveniently stationed in Andromeda.
It is always calm before the storm.

The prototype of the W-15, a new age weapon of mass destruction that has within its core more energy than a hydrogen bomb and the answer to nuclear fusion, was stolen. Not only is this weapon dangerous, the technology is ground braking and could save the earth from decomposition.
Retrieving the W-15 in necessary beyond comprehension.
The only clue as to where this weapon was taken is a speck of blood found near the scene of the crime.

Immediately the government sprung into action. The blood sample was given to the leading forensic scientist (also a top field agent) who came to a startling conclusion.

The sample was eerily similar to the blood samples that had come straight out of Fido’s veins.

Was their another super powered thief on the loose?
The government wasn’t about to take their chances.
The leader of the Criminal Deracination Unit, CDU, decided to assemble a team of special operatives to find this thief and get back the ever important W-15.

The team, which included the super powered heroine and the leading forensic scientist, embarked on a journey to a remote island halfway around the world. They thought they had got their man. However, once they arrived, disaster struck. Of all the twenty agents that left Andromeda, only two came back: The heroine and the scientist.
The reported to have been blinded while everyone around them was slaughtered in complete darkness. The fact that they managed to survive was a miracle.

Satellites were sent to spy on the island only to find all traces of life had been removed and probably shipped off to another secret location.
The CDU leader realized it was time to take drastic measures. She would fight fire with fire.

She marched into the maximum security prison and offered Fido a proposition he just couldn’t refuse.

He’d get out of prison, be able to live his life, on a few conditions. He was to help a specially designed team of operatives track down this new super powered thief and retrieve the W-15. T make sure he didn’t just ditch, he would be placed under a “house arrest” of sorts.
A tracking device would be placed around his ankle to ensure his cooperation. One wrong move and he be thrown back into the slammer without any hope of getting out ever again.
Fido agreed on spot.

The team would be of CDU's best agents.

1) The super heroine
2) The world’s leading forensic scientist
3) CDU’s leader herself
4) Good old Fido

Things are bound to get interesting when you throw two arch enemies and super powered criminals into the mixture.


Plot3: (vampire)

Plot by Evoblack
Indeed, there are teachers and there are students. Only the best students, or the richest, can afford to attend Wickwood Manor. Even then its aura of foreboding is enough to drive away even the strictest of parents. There are four students here who aren't afraid of what is in the school...because they are the school's fear themselves. Vampires.

Throughout the past year, the principal of Wickwood Manor decided to open its doors to a few unfortunate students. These four students, among being mortal, come from less than rich backgrounds. Some of them have even been abused. Others came to the Manor on an offered scholarship because they can't afford proper tuition.

The vampires and mortals are bound to run into each other some time. The vampires have been taught to hold off on eating the mortals. The mortals sense something odd about the vampires for they haven't been told about the vampires. The vampires will be tempted by their blood and the mortals will be tempted by their beauty and charm, unknowingly slipping into a predator's grasp.

What will temptation become? Will the vampires turn the mortals into their own? Or will they devour them?

Welcome to Love Me Eternal where love doesn't always live forever...




Character Skeleton:
This is a very shortened version of a character skeleton but it is commonly seen in this format. Fill in the blanks pretty much. Replace the 1, 2, and 3 after color with your colors, it makes it look pretty and is the type of skelly most often used anyways so you should get the hang of it.

[align=center]P I C T U R E, you may choose a real or anime one.[/align]

My Samples:


Yes, I am going to give you a sample of how I would fill this out if it was my character. Please refrain from copying the ideas as the defeats the purpose of this entire thread. Also be warned, I write very short biographies as I tend to fill my character out more in the RP than before it, although I always stick to what I have mentioned before in my bios.



Plot 1:

Wolf Form

||| My Name Is: Alexandra
My Age Is: 150, that equals out to about 19 in werewolf age.
Inside My Pants: Female
A little about me: I'm usually quiet a nice person, although lately I have been snappy and distant. Can you blame me though? I'm being married off to some vampire jerk and I just lost the love of my life, I'm not really in the best mood.
My story: Well, I was born the princess, the Alpha's only pup before my mother died. I'm expected... well I WAS expected to take over after my father, but I suppose he forgot about that when he tried to marry me off... I've never even met the guy. And he's a vampire a filthy bloodsucker. How could they expect me to be with one of those... things?!
My heart lies with Marcus. He was killed in a fight, over dominance of all things, now everyone is pretending like he never existed and that I am the misbehaving child who should just give up all her rights and do what her father wants. He should know how it feels to lose your mate!! He lost my mother, and he hasn't gotten over it or found an alphess to take her place, what makes him think I can just forget about the love of my life?

So, I did the childish thing, I ran away from home. They can marry off some other wolf to one of those arrogant vampires, I won't do it.

It's been... well, it's been interesting to say the least. Outside our forest sanctuary things are much different. Vampires... well they still are arrogant bloodsuckers, but not all of them seem to be that bad. I've met a few humans in my travels too, most of them hurry away though when they find out what I am... It's a little depressing really.



Plot 2:

||| My Name Is: Yvette Foncé Armand
My Age Is:26
Inside My Pants: Female
A little about me: Yvette is, quite literally, a loner. Until she moved to Andromeda she had never really tried to make friends, because friends were a liability to be used against you. She has a very strict sense of morals and follows her own personal code of conduct. She is quiet with a short temper and no tolerance for ignorance. She rarely speaks, other than to do her job.
My story:Yvette, as her name suggests, originates from France. Her father was non-existent, as her mother was a whore. No really, she was a prostitute. So Yvette was sent to an orphanage to count herself lucky to have not been aborted. She showed an aptitude for combat at a very yound age and once she reached the age of 10 she was thrown out of the orphanage for her “violent tendencies” So, on the streets now she fought for survival with all the other bums.

That was when she was found by an Israeli Mossad member. She was exactly what they were looking for, no family, no friends, no one that would miss her, and an aptitude for combat. They took her in and trained her in all the secret ways of the Mossad. Now she is a literal killing machine, or at least capable of being one. She spent 5 years training, as well as five years in service that she is never to speak of. Not that anyone knows anything about her anyways, she doesn’t talk enough.

Now she is what we call an ex-Massad. She joined the CDU at the age of 20 and progressed, due to her training, quickly through the ranks. Now she is the big boss lady that no one knows anything about, and aside from the whole Fido incident, things have been running pretty smoothly. Until now. Someone stole the W-15 prototype. Yvette assembled a team to retrieve it, thinking it would just be a “normal” job. She was wrong, they were slaughtered and now she blames herself for the deaths of 18 of her agents.


Plot 3:

||| My Name Is: Hunter Ryan Black
My Age Is:????
Inside My Pants:Male
A little about me:Sadistic, cruel, cold, bloodthirsty, psycho. Terms such as these are used frequently in the description of Hunter. Though for those who don't piss him off, and manage to get away with all their limbs intact one can find a loyal, if crazy, friend.
My story: Once upon a time there was a vampire, his name was Hunter Black. This vampire was unique for his kind, he was born along with his twin brother. Being born a pure vampire was extremely rare because it takes so much to impregnate a vampiress, it is more often a human mother with a vampire father, creating a halfbreed. But back to our Hunter, he was born in the early 1700's and through his long life he has had... more than a few friends, acquaintances, lovers, and enemies. Of all of them really only a five stand out.

The first.... Belle: A vampiress of whom he was madly in love with. They stayed together for almost a year before she brutally betrayed him to a vampire hunter, holding him down herself as the hunter tried to close in with the knife. He killed them both and has never been the same since.

After Belle Hunter went on widespread killing sprees, not giving a damn about any kind of authority and it still shows to this very day the impact Belle had on his life through his actions. He wandered around from place to place, making more acquaintances in his best friend Armand and former mentor Airi. Airi was an ancient vampiress of who the two friends wound up in quiet the fight over, although Hunter decided it wasn't worth the friendship because of some vampiress... His life didn't change again however until he met,

The second... Ravin: The woman who broke his bond with Airi. A vampiress with extraordinary self control and will power. Hunter met her shortly after his bouts of training and affairs with Airi and his fights with Armand. She intrigued him after their first meeting in a Paris alleyway. He had stumbled upon her cornered by an vampire hunter and killed him and in the process of drinking the hunters blood she told him he was a despicable sadist. They soon became close friends despite Ravin's pacifist and "vegetarian" ways. She taught him killing wasn't always the answer and helped to, if the words of Airi were any indication, "tame" him.

He and Ravin parted ways when Ravin decided to go to the "new world" and he moved around some more. His killing sprees had lessened and he was doing fine, moving around as necessary to keep his identity a secret. And he finally made it back to Paris. That is where he met,

The third... Raffaele of all his partners this was the most odd. A priest, a vampire hunter, and strangest of all, a man... a fight had broken out between his friend Armand and Raffaele. His mentor Airi joined as well as himself. The problem? Raffaele held an uncanny likeness to the hunter that Belle had betrayed him for... Which was very bad for the hunter. He dragged him off, intent to exact some sort of torture on the unfortunate man, but something happened.... He found he would rather screw the man than kill him. Then he became attached, he never did love the man as Raffaele seemed to do him, but he was attached close to the point of love. A few problems arose, for example Hunter knowing that he shouldn't fool around with Raffaele, that nothing good could have come of it, which caused him to leave, he came back at the scream of his lover and they moved to Australia with Hunter's family, nothing too extreme went down, other than Hunter having to put his twin in his place for messing with Raffaele. The that creature came, he fought, but he couldn't overcome the damn thing, a creature that could change shapes at will... he actually didn't find out what it was until he started to associate himself with his demon housekeeper then he found out what it was... Versipellis never again would he deal with the foul creature.

After Raffaele was dragged off Hunter went through another depression before moving around yet again. His life continued like this for some time, including his parents sending the demon "housekeeper" which he later found out was more of a bodyguard, but a bodyguard against Hunter to keep him from causing a scene... He trained with the demon David for sometime, finding yet another that he couldn't beat. David was trained to stop him and any other vampire that tried to help him. They are good friends now. A few years after he settled down in the states he met,

The fourth.... Veronica and the fifth... Dylan: Hunter met both Veronica and Dylan in the same day, at the same place. One of them changed his life for the better, the other removed a part of it completely. Veronica Rose Milton... when he met her he never would have dreamed that it would turn out the way it did. The first time he met her he literally shoved her away, in his haste to escape her company. However, he had later decided that keeping her as a late night snack would be even better and began the age old ritual of wooing and seducing her to lure her in. Oops. After finding out the only place she had to stay was her car he took a risk on his meal investment and took her home to keep any other vampires from snacking on her. The only problem was that he steadily fell for her, something about her.. he couldn't place it... but after just a few days he couldn't picture his life without her he bit her, almost killing her from his blood lust in the process. They fought, the yelled the ******** and the loved one another more than life itself. After that, they got married a year later and moved to his homeland in Australia.
Dylan however.... well Hunter killed Dylan. He was Ravin's lover, her first and her last. The human male wound up impregnating his friend before she changed him, the baby had ripped his sister like friend open from the inside out, Hunter had mercilessly killed the father and raised their child.
