Welcome to Gaia! ::

Story overview

This RP is set in a post apocalyptic world, where the elements have gone crazy and a deep cold has over run everything. People's lives have been ruined and the vast majority of the world is poor and starving. A legend is told in the "Book of the Moon" that wolves are mystical beings who came to the world from a place called Rakuen (Paradise), at the dawn of time. In the future, wolves will find a way to return to paradise. They must first seek out the "Flower Maiden" (a being created from the essence of lunar flowers) who will guide them to paradise. This legend is nearly forgotten because wolves were thought to have been hunted to extinction nearly 200 years before. Some wolves, however, have found a way to survive by coexisting with humans and blending into society.

Now the search has begun in ernest the wolves have come out and are looking for their Flower Maiden, but forces as dark and old as time and shadows align against them wishing to use Paradise for their own uses. Which side will you fall upon? The darkness or the light? The face of the world rests in your hands...

Races
Human: Your basic human, though don't knock it 99.9% of the people in the world are this race. They may be common but they are survivors and can be very deadly, sometimes even Wolves become humans. They are the economically most powerful and the most vast of all the races.

Flower Child: Yes it is most commonly reffered to as the 'Flower Maiden' but there is not always just one. Sometimes many can exist, they are blessed by the moon. They can be male or female though in the most cases they are female, and there is always one, one that shall never be tainted and that is the one that shall open the gates to Paradise, or be the destruction of all life depending who he/she loves. (this will be decided by myself and Sora we already have an idea for who can do it if they want too, but feel free to join and if your RPing is impressive you might get the part of the main Flower Child, if not they are still strong nonetheless). They have the power to touch the souls of Wolves and their songs can evoke emotions in others, they can turn into their plant like forms giving them natural weaponry of vines and thorns and the natural armor of bark. For each wolf that is born there is a Flower Child but not all survive through their infacy for if their chosen wolf dies, they die as well.

Noble: These are those cursed by destiny, they are neither Wolf nor Human but something in between, something less and yet much more. Their power is a thing to behold for physically they excel over any other race, their power lies in their blood and the heavy curse of Paradise that haunts them. This gives them one eye that looks like that of a Wolf, and sometimes if they accept their nature they can turn into large mighty Wolves who are faster, stronger and more vicious than their cousins. They cannot easily hide in normal society due to their eye, for it is definitely not human, and their curse tends to make those they love and care about die or fall under Paradise Poisoning which is a coma they will never awaken from. This leaves most of them embittered and evil, though a few might be able to hold onto their humanity and goodness. This is the only race other than Wolves that can awaken the power of a Flower Child.

Wolves: The race of destiny, wolves have been misunderstood and hunted by others for most of their existence. Most only seek to live in peace and harmony with the world, but some have become bitter by being hunted and have in turn started to hunt the other races. There are many types of Wolves in many different sizes and skills each one unique in it's own way. They are faster and stronger than humans but for the most part refuse to use technology preferring their natural weapons or blades of some sort, never a gun. They are the chosen of destiny too seek out their Flower Child and open the doors to Paradise for all others of their kind so they can be free of the shackles of mankind. There is not many who can stand up to the rage of a Wolf.

Height/Weight: 6'2"/260 lbs
Appearance:
Wolf:
Alignment: Evil
Race: Noble Lord
skills/senses: As the main bad guy Alucard's skills and powers shall remain a secret, just let it be known he is to be truly feared.
Equipment: nothing more than the clothes on his back.
Weapons: he tends to rely only upon his natural weaponry though he has been trained how to use other weapons.
Personality:Alucard is cold cruel and calculating. He has a cold edge to him, almost never letting emotions control him, which is why he is the head of the family, despite his lineage powers having awakened the most out of them all.
Background: Alucard is the oldest son of the Van Skorfield family, and the youngest to ever lead them. They are currently one of the biggest corporations on the planet, having their fingers in everything including the military and their experiments. They are the puppeteers in the background making everything dance to their tune. He took control when he killed both his parents with his own hands, because he thought they had become weak and no longer deserved to live. It was he who put his sibling in charge of the military and in other places like research and started the hunt for Wolves. He wishes to kill them all so maybe his family can be freed of it's curse, or perhaps then they could open the doors to Paradise for themselves, which is also why he's started the hunt for Flower Children, though they are taken alive. They have already captured one and she is under the care of his youngest brother, so that he may prove himself worthy of the family name. They may not rule outright but they might as well with all the power and influence at their disposal.

Equipment: basically her clothes though she has armor and weaponry if needed.
Weapons: generally relies upon her natural weapons
Personality: Lilith is cruel and sadistic, she takes pleasure in causing pain to others. She is definitely the most insane of the family as well, being more than a little off center, though she can hide it very well. She is a master of manipulating people.
Background: Lilith is the second child of the family, and is actually madly in love with Alucard though her affection isn't returned. His power attracts her like nothing else does which is why she follows him blindly, he is the only one to ever always treat her well and she adores him for it. She grew up to be a seductress using her feminine whiles to get her way because of a few 'incidents' when she was younger that her mind would never let her forget she does not care about her body. Alucard has put her in charge of research and development for many different programs including the military one, the Flower Child one, and the Wolf one. With her brain and memory it isn't that hard a task for her. She checks in on her little brother all the time to make sure things are progressing well with the captured Flower Child and to just see how he is doing. Family matters to her most and she loves all that remains of her bloodline furiously.

Personality: Damien is kinda the most childlike out of them all, he lets his emotions guide him completely, unfortunately for many when it comes to things other than his family that emotion is mostly rage. He is an amazing general and a top soldier, having a natural aptitude for it, but when it comes to his family he is very trusting and even a bit innocent.
Background: Damien was heartbroken when his brother killed his parents but he got over it when it was explained to him by Alucard. He is closest in age to Aizen and likes to spend time with his little brother. When Alucard took over Damien was made head of the Military, and is the highest ranking general. He inducted Aizen as a lieutenant and is teaching him the ways of warfare even though Aizen's time now is mostly taken up by his newest duty assigned to him by Alucard.
