Sign Up: The Immortals

[Luka Megurine]

APPROVED BY LPS

Before humanity was ever thought of existing, a species of skilled bipeds roamed the Earth. These beings were much like human beings in appearance and anatomy but had one key difference. They had supernatural abilities, which they believed were given to them by the gods. The beings lived in harmony until they came. Humans came to the Earth along with a whirlwind of conflict. Initially, the humans treated the beings as equals and merged along with them. During this time, the beings found that they didn’t age as fast as the humans hence the reason they were given their names: The Immortals. This peace did not last long. Soon Humans began to hunt the beings down, one by one until only about a third of their original population still survived.

The surviving Immortals hid until they were forgotten, long enough to where they could merge with society again. The second merging was successful, with no one figuring out what they were or where they came from. Little did they know, the power of Catholicism would bring them down, again. The Immortals were branded as many things ranging from witches to demons and ultimately were hunted down and executed. Due to their numbers, the Catholic Church created a special branch with the intent of obliterating all Immortals. Soon after the hunts began, their population dwindled down to 50 Immortals left.

In order to keep their population alive, the oldest of the Immortals sacrificed himself as a gift to their gods. The gods responded with a solution. Every 18 years, new Immortals would be born into the world with human families. However, the Immortals must rise against the Church’s organization and find a way to defeat them.
Ever since then, Immortals have been searching the planet, trying to band together their forces, in hope that they may have that one day of peace.

Races of Immortals:

Conjurers: Conjurers are Immortals capable of controlling one element. They are usually wearing flexible clothes that are durable for conjuring. They have one eye that is the color of the element they can conjure. However, Conjurers must wear a rechargeable crystal in order to conjure. For close range situations, Conjurers have metal claws they can attach to their fingers.

Seekers: Seekers are Immortals capable of having visions of the future. Seekers are usually blind or have a sight impairment of some kind to make up for the visions. They are not suited for combat unless they are taught, however, they are able to protect themselves by carrying a weapon with them at all times.

Summoners: Summoners are Immortals that have the ability to summon the dead to do their bidding, speak to the dead, and reanimate corpses by using alchemical circles. Summoners are distinguishable by their dark eyes or skull shaped markings located somewhere on their body. Considered evil by the humans, Summoners were the hardest to adapt into human life.

Shifters: Shifters are Immortals who can shift into any animal. Shifters are distinguishable by a paw shaped marking on their body, though some shifters change the appearance of their pupil. Although Shifters can shift into any animal, they usually have a preferred animal that’s the easiest for them to shift into. Shifters also usually can only learn to shift into 3 animals as learning a new animal can take years of practice. Also, Shifters need to consume a high-protein diet in order to shift for long periods of time.

Fighters: Fighters are Immortals that are similar to angels. Fighters are very powerful and skilled in combat. They have enhanced speed, strength, and agility. When their full power potential is released, their eyes turn completely white and the elements respond to their emotions, however this can only happen for a limited time. By the time most Fighters are 18, they are said to have a set of wings of any color. Again, the wings can only be used for a limited amount of time. Fighters are distinguishable by facial tattoos.

Her skin is light tan and she has light brown hair that reaches her shoulders. She usually wears clothes that match the culture of the place she’s currently resides, in order to merge better with humans. Her paw shaped marking is located on the nape of her neck.

Preferred Animal: Mexican Wolf

Biography: Maria was born near the Rio Grande to a family of Shifters. Her family was a mixture of prosperous farmers and hunters. Her father urged her to become a hunter at an early age by bringing her along on hunts and letting her sometimes kill with a bow and arrow. Due to this, by the time she turned 10, she was able to shift into a Mexican wolf, which became her preferred animal. From then on, Maria became one of the hunters of her family and brought back profit with every hunt. At age 16, Maria married Francisco Alvarez and moved to Santa Fe with him. The couple was originally happy together, having two children together and living the high life. Their happiness did not last long though.
The hunters came to her home, forcing her away from her family and into hiding. While alone, Maria had to thrive off of her instincts and shifted into her preferred animal most of the time. Almost a century later, Maria resurfaced into human society, always coming up with a new alias every time. She concluded that starting a family again wouldn’t guarantee safety on both ends. So whenever someone was too close to her, she made up a new identity and left. Today Maria resides in Jacinto City, Texas, with a new Identity of course.

Personality: Maria usually has a happy visage and positive attitude about most things. Although she isn’t quite smart, she can usually think her way about basic situations with shifting. She is described as motherly towards people younger to her and most people usually come to her for help.

Other: Maria is an artist, but she will only draw pictures of her family in order to keep them in her memory.
