[SUDS] Modern Mythology

[Winter]

Annnd that would be the final set SUs I'm looking for to start the RP. We might get another SU in the future, but I'm not going to wait any longer--people are starting to get antsy.

[[Desolate Divine]]

Sounds Good. I am working on a final SU ATM but it might take a While with this damn writers Block. A half ArchAngel will be interesting.
Start whenever you want to. I will post Alenas SU ASAP

[Winter]

For those of you who haven't noticed or I haven't told, the RP thread is up.

[Winter]

Sorry for the double post, however I thought it might be important to let you guys know I'm still alive and planning on continuing this RP, I've just been busy lately with starting college and trying to find a job...it also doesn't help I've been trying to complete two new SUs on top of that. Hopefully I can get those done soon, and then get a post up so we can get moving again.

[Dragotech]

Name: Lisa Blackeye

Age: Maybe a little over 100,

Gender: Female

Race: Western Dragon-An overgrown, winged lizard famous for its fire. Tales of this creature hail from Europe.

-Dragons have a ridiculously long life-span, and they age slowly, so they can live for about a hundred years and not really look much older.
-A dragon's growth peaks at early ages. When they mature, their growth rates drop dramatically.
-Dragons are naturally resilient creatures.
-Dragons do have access to some magics, but very few understand that they can use it.
-Dragons are carnivorous.
-Dragons are naturally cold-blooded
-Dragons have many varieties.
-Dragons of her particular variety have a flexible enough bone structure to shift stance from four legs to two legs. This is not comfortable but possible. They tend to prefer the four legged stance. They can also modify their fifth finger into an opposable thumb. Again this in uncomfortable, but is possible.

Affiliation: Dragons show fealty to none! She currently does not affiliate herself with anyone. She herself is not fond of secrecy, but the idea of being shot out of the sky on sight is not pleasing either.

Appearance: As a dragon, she has black scales. She could be considered a small dragon. She is about fifteen feet long, but half of it is tail. With a four foot stance she can look a six-foot tall man in the eye. She weighs about a ton though she won't admit it. She has a thirty foot wingspan, so her ability to get in the air is relatively unquestionable. Her back legs are actually longer than her front legs, but it isn't noticeable unless she switches her posture because it requires a shift in her leg bones and hip bones. When she switches to a Bipedal stance she is over ten feet tall with short but muscled legs. Whichever stance she decides to occupy, she has a muscular, thin frame.
The transition from human to dragon is extremely painful. It can also take a long time. This is her transition phase. She uses it if she needs to get around faster or is threatened, or if she feels the need to show she isn’t human. She will stand at about seven feet tall; have a four foot long tail, and a ten foot wingspan. She will have black scales.
In her human form, she is about six inches over five feet tall, so she is not terribly short. She looks like an athlete because she retains some of her muscular frame. Dragons don't produce milk because they are reptilian, so she doesn't have those on her chest even in human form. She has pale skin. She doesn't look like she sees the sun often. Her eye color is red. She explains that she uses contacts with that tint as a cover-up. She has black hair. It is short and spiked as it is every morning. She manages to comb out the scale-like flakes, so her hair looks human. Her teeth are also pointed, so she doesn't open her mouth often in public. She would go barefoot, but she has to put something on her feet to look normal. She is typically wearing flip-flops. She wears jeans that look worn and ripped. She also wears t-shirts. Aside from that she looks like your average young adult.

Personality: She has two mindsets. One is primitive, cold, and reptilian, but the other is fairly human. She normally does not use her reptilian mind-set, but she can regardless of form. It is vicious and purely self-preserving. It does not show emotion aside from fear and the lack of fear. If it does not attack, it does not care you exist. It is not capable of love. It will never like you, it will only put-up-with you at best.
The other mindset is fairly human. She has and can display each emotion. This is where her personality matters. She has already hit the age where she is capable and has the desire to find a mate. She does not feel an attraction to male humans, and any dragons left in the world will be well hidden amongst the population. Needless to say, she feels alone in the world. She knows she will easily outlive human friends. She avoids that pain by making only acquaintances. These last for awhile, but she eventually gets sick of them, and she can't exactly hide the lack of ageing to her body. She can't exactly tell people that she isn't human. This secret burdens her heart. She can't make actual friends with the majority of the population, and she has to move away often. On first appearance she may seem antisocial, but by nature she is friendly, and even a little childish. Unlike the typical mythology she isn't led by greed, and she doesn't see much value in paper money. She has a great amount of passion. She also, like many of her kind, is prideful. She loves the sky and wishes to roam its currents freely. She knows that she simply can't and that is sad to her.

History: She hatched from an egg, and realized at once she was alone. She was able to survive on her own from those tender moments. Though later in her life she wished she had a mentor so she could learn her natural abilities much earlier, but no, she was alone. She managed to hunt for herself. She survived off of rodents, reptiles, and whatever else she managed to catch that would fit in her mouth. She continued to move along seeking whatever prey she could come across. She longed for a companion to communicate and play with. She survived and grew alone. She tended to shy from larger creatures like humans. Granted there came a point where she was relatively their size. She discovered she enjoyed watching them more than eating them. How they were did interest her, and it also reminded her of her own lack of companionship. She moved on and managed to get herself caught up in a predicament with a warlock. It was strange to her and she investigated it, and unfortunately found herself harnessed and chained. Granted this time wasn’t completely horrible. She wasn’t fond of being studied, but she learned how her wings worked as well as her fiery breath. She also picked up on a little spell that allows her to take on a form like those humans she enjoyed watching. She also picked up on the language of the day in the United States as she realized the land was called. She managed to eventually escape after the tests became progressively more painful. She went into the human world and worked at picking up on everything she could. She quickly realized that she did not fit in well yet. She continued to pick up on all sorts of things and went on with life up to the present day.
Weapons/Abilities:
All:
Predator's mind: Her primitive mindset. It can be switched on or off at will. On is a lot easier than off...
Angry smoke: When angered smoke will rise from her mouth and nostrils.
Fire Breath: She can release a jet of flame in any form. It is significantly more powerful in dragon form.
Learned Language: She can read and understand English in any form. She can only speak it in human.

Human: She is at her most vulnerable. She can be wounded or killed almost as easily as a human.
Enhanced Strength: She retains some of her dragoness strength. She is a good bit stronger than the average human with the same weight, height, and gender.
Enhanced senses: Her senses are a little better than a human’s while in human form.
Mending: Flesh wounds will heal slightly faster.
Tough skin: Her skin is slightly tougher than a human’s. It also is slightly fire resistant.
Dragon Shape: She shifts into her true form.

Half: Nothing extremely different from the Human form. She can no longer speak in English, but her scales improve her tough skin. She also can fly, but not for extended periods of time. Her claws and teeth can be used, but they aren't at their true brutality.

Dragon: A true daughter of the skies with a breath that can set a forest ablaze.
Natural Mending: Her mending does not improve, but it beats a human's healing abilities.
Wings: With her wings restored to their full glory, she can fly not only far, but very, very fast.
Fire Breath: Her fire breath is much improved.
Dragon scales: She is resistant to fire and her tough scaly hide will help against most physical damage.
Dragon claws and fangs: She has her teeth and claws at their full glory, and they carry the brutality of a butcher with the luster of many precious pearls.
Dragon's Senses: Her senses are at their peak, and they are impressive.
Dragon Strength: Her strength is the strength of a dragon.
Pose Shift: She switches from four legs to two.
Human Form: She indulges her limited knowledge of magic to take on human form.

Other:
If one watches close enough the transition between positions can be observed. She has to go on all four legs when shifting. The bones can be observed through the skin by a good eye. This can be exploited. If she takes a hard enough hit to her leg while switching her stance, it could dislocate that hip. It would be intensely painful and crippling. She would be able to force it back into place, but that would take a good moment. During that moment she is pretty much vulnerable.

She is cold-blooded, in case that was missed. This means that her blood temperature is dependent on the surrounding air. If she overheats(she spits fire so she is used to extreme heat and is resistant to it) or she gets to cold(She can survive Winters out in the cold, but she does not like it at all), it could kill her. The cold of course would make her more sluggish, until she gets to the point where she loses to much heat. The heat probably wouldn't bother her.

Her scales can defend aptly against slashing and stabbing attacks. Crushing attacks not so much. Bullets of course exist and those could prove to be a problem to her, and guns are readily available to civilians.

Breathing fire in human form will cause her to burn herself. She resists it, but she isn't fireproof.

Shifting between forms is an extremely painful experience. It also at best can take about an hour. She can switch to the half form in about twenty minutes from her human form. She does not usually stop here if she is changing to human.


Name: Raiza (normally goes by Rei)

Age: forgot to start the count

Gender: Female

Race: Succubus
A low level demon that is particularly known for a specific lack of modesty.

Affiliation: With Demons that aren’t complete douche canoes. She is fairly secretive.

Appearance: She wears a grey hoodie. Her hair appears to be died blue. She is normally seen pointing her violet eyes at the ground. She wears blue jeans and fairly basic tennis shoes. She wears a headset around her neck plugged into a music listening device in her pocket. She has tribal “tattoos” covering her body that are normally well hidden by clothing and magical energies. Aside from that she has a somewhat hidden thin frame with fairly large assets mostly just simple hereditary traits held by her particular race. Her clothes are patched up in certain places.

In her true form, she appears mostly the same. You can see her lengthy black claws, wings, and curved horns. Her “tattoos” also glow and their glamour can no longer hide them. Her wardrobe doesn’t really change much. It gets somewhat ripped and needs to be re-patched.

Personality: She is fairly disgusted with her races particular history. She is tired of being looked down on by other demons. She seems fairly anti-social and has quite a temper. She is quite sensitive on certain matters. She also doesn’t divulge certain pleasantries that a demon of her specific race is known for, which makes her more irritable.

On the flip side, she does enjoy raving despite her general anti-social attitude and likes to play DJ spinning the disks. She is a lover of music.

History: She was “born” in hell, little surprise there, to the slave of a demon master. It was quite obvious as she grew what specific variation she was. The near human appearance narrows it down a little and demonic puberty doesn’t leave too many options afterward. She was pretty much labeled from that point on until she did what many demons aspire to do… and leave home for a new better world. Granted she was unimpressed by the advances of mortal men who were almost as annoying as the demons who didn’t ask first. Of course in the time period she found herself in… not to many options for honest work were available to women. She found herself doing what she apparently did best and mostly hated every moment of it. Sewing clothes and working as a servant sucks.

To her disappointment she made the mistake of falling in love… and was stricken with shock when her affection killed her significant other. She found herself locked in a dungeon as a murderer and a trial for execution was set to be soon. Granted she found herself in a castle raid and was loaded as a commodity. Quite dissatisfied with her new living conditions, she escaped. Turns out, if you jar a poorly forged door of a mobile cell it may break open. Granted super-natural strength does help a little, but not quite as much as loose bolts and a rocky road.

After some time of wondering around surviving off whatever energies she could drain from the local wildlife. She found herself on a boat bound for a new land. Granted she almost didn’t make it all the way across the expansive water and washed up on the beach waterlogged and not particularly happy.

She found herself physically and mentally exhausted and found herself waking up. She had hibernated for a great amount of time gathering her strength together. She woke starving needing to feed.

It didn’t take her long to figure out that everything was quite different. People didn’t seem to have swords or axes and what-not attached to their belts and there were definitely no muskets. She did realize she did like the music of the new era, and a few years passed to present day.

Weapons/Abilities:
Claws: In her true form she has a decent set of meat cleavers stretched from each of her fingers.

Wings: In her true form. She has black wings… they let her fly.

Tail: It doesn’t do much… mostly helps act as a way to help stabilize and control flight, and the arrow-headed blade at the tip can be used for stabbing.

Seductiveness: Her magically enhanced attractiveness attracts more attention from those attracted to her gender. It also makes them easier for her manipulate if she wants. Though that is dependent on their ideals and mental will. This works with either form would work better in her true form if most males wouldn’t relieve themselves of physical waste product when they saw it.

Kiss of the Succubus: Known to drain the life out of those unfortunate mortals foolish enough to be at the receiving end. It is how the Succubus feeds. Granted this effect is gradual and any smart individual will know that they feel weaker, and anyone a little smarter will think… something is wrong about this and pull away. This will work in either form; it is more effective in her true form.
Magic: She can use basic glamours in her human form. She can also use low level magic to hurl small fireballs and frostballs. She uses it to hide in her human form. She has a better hold of her own magic in her Succubus form. It is, therefore, more powerful.

Other: (and some weaknesses)

She is naturally weak to magic.

She is especially weak to her racial nature. (This could be used to trick her.)

She can be caught in a demon/devil’s trap.

She can be exorcised. Granted she wouldn’t like you if you did that.

She is not a particularly strong swimmer.

Welp... Couldn't help but write a few more...

Name: Gorynch (Currently goes by Aaron Lynch)

Age: Ancient

Gender: Male

Race: Dragon/Warlock
Half-demon Dragon
His particular variety has three heads.

Affiliation: He is affiliated with his personal finance... but that is about it. He is fairly secretive.

Appearance: He is large... monstrously large... He is relatively ten feet tall from talon to snout. He is about thirty feet long, and is packing about forty feet of wing. He has three large heads. He has bronze colored scales. His scale armor is a little thicker and heavier than most dragons. He is therefore a little slower.

His human form is a bit more sensible. He prefers business attire over typical wear. His hair is light brown with streaks of gray and dangles to about his neck. He has a large gold ring on his hand. His skin is fair and light. His eyes are yellow and brown.

Personality: He would seem fairly insane since he is inhabited by three minds. His right side is calm, cool, and not a complete scoundrel. His left side on the other hand, harbors his demons. The mind in the middle is the one that the polar opposites drive insane... and when your third party reasoning is not sane... things tend to be bad for others.

In his human form the primary driving mind is the middle. The other two act as the angel and the demon on his shoulder. He is at his most level headed... Granted he himself is a slave to greed.

History: He is an ancient lizard. His father was a powerful demon, whereas his mother was a dragon. He thrived in times when the Black Death was the concern of the day. He collected gold with a dragon's legendary lust. He killed, burned, and destroyed... and loved it. To be perfectly correct most of him loved it. He had magically sealed his sympathy and other emotions he thought were weak away in one mind.

This tortured mind sought its refuge, but found none. Every turn of the road it had been one part of being that loved destruction. It had to trick the being it was apart of into unsealing it. Ironically the same force that wrought this mind, dispersed it. Magic was an obvious answer, but finding a wielder who could do such things was near impossible.

It had occurred that the being itself had been the only creature with the magical prowess to break its own bonds, and once this occurred all of the minds where one, before its imbalance broke it into three again. It's greatest demon, greed, was split amongst it. It's wrath and rage inhabited one mind, while its compassion found itself in another. The middle became a balance.

The being itself overruled itself and took on a human form. Since then it has become a successful business owner. It forged its own documents and passed its business down to itself. It still keeps most of its monetary assets in the form of gold, jewels, and silver. He has only sought more insatiably.

Weapons/Abilities:

Dragon:
Fire Breath: He is a dragon, and they are notorious for it.

Claws: He has large claws for ripping into foes.

Wings: He can fly.

Magic: He has access to his Magical abilities.

Human:

Fireball: He can conjure fireballs.

Lightning: He can make lightning strike... just don't ask him to do it twice... or on a clear day.

Frost: Works well on a cold day... can freeze-over enemies... makes a nice snowcone on a hot day.

Earth: The ground trembles at his command. It is kinda intimidating... and can knock down your teapot collection.

Wind: He stirs and manipulates the air... Makes flying harder... and he can be a real **** and steal the air from your lungs... now he just needs to work on preventing you from inhaling again.

Water: He can manipulate waves once in a blue moon... or a red moon... or a full moon... kinda depends on the moon for strength.

Mind Magic: He can amplify a single emotion... whether it will be bravery or cowardice... depends on his mood... and who he is targeting.

Shift Form: Switches from human to dragon and vice versa.


Name: Arkos Stormclaw (usually goes by Mark)

Age: 28

Gender: Male

Race: Warlock
Half-demon wizard person! Woo!

Affiliation: He is affiliated with whoever he decides aren't the bad guys. Not sure you can call him secretive.

Appearance: He has a youthful appearance. He keeps a bit of a goatee. He can work it with his charming looks and his black hair. The notable features about him are his tattoos. He has a long snake that goes around his right arm and onto his hand. He has daggers on the inside of his left arm. He has a couple fairies on his left shoulder, one of winter, one of summer. He has sharp Valkyrie wings done on his back. His eyes are hazel. He carries a staff on him.

Personality: He loves being an entertainer. He has a general pleasing attitude and is held with good humor. He prefers being bubbly and nearly flirtatious as opposed to being somber. His spirits tend to be high and if he isn't careful he will be high and full of spirits.

History: He had an old fallout with his father long ago about what is important. His father being a demon decided that wielding great power and taking over the surface was what was important. He on the other hand didn't want to try and rule the world with magic, he wanted to coincide and exist within it. He and his father left off on a sour note for what was best for him.

He went his way too become a man. Instead of studying destructive spells, he studied illusionary magics and magics of the mind. He focused on magic that would do neat tricks... But alas his day job would not support him well. He studied magics of mending wounds, healing ailments, and curing poisons. His night job would keep him afloat, so he wouldn't lose all funds, while his day job was a hobby he enjoyed greatly. By day, he was a street performer of illusions, by night he was a cleric that would mend those who would seek him.

Weapons/Abilities:

Staff: ... A hard wooden stick. Really... nothing really special about it.

Wordless Casting: His studies with mind magics taught him to cast without forming words at his mouth but in his mind.

Animation: His work with mind and illusion magics allowed him to learn how to give temporary life to things such as pictures and figures. They can be legitimately dangerous!

Illusion: He can create illusions of horrifying monstrous creatures... which will scare you... unless you know it is fake.

Momentum: He learned this to aid in his street show. He can change the energy stored in an object, so that it will launch at the slightest touch or force. Could be potentially deadly if he charged the object long enough.

Mending Magic: He can use magic to heal wounds, ailments, and poisons.
