Although I have 58+ characters tucked away somewhere in my mind, I've realized very few of them are actual...normal...humans. Even my humans have weird things that are preventing me from bringing them here.
Before I decide to bring Cyril here (yes, I still don't know if I want to...sorreh >.<) I was wondering, are we a non-magical community? The reason I ask is I was wanting to bring Awvurn over here (from Two Worlds, ya know) and as some of us know Awvurn has a prosthetic arm, but it was originally supposed to be 'enchanted' or something, so he could use it like a normal arm.
I was also wondering if we could...(OMG I AM GOING TO GET SHOT) have halflings. BTW, halfling is just a fancy term for hobbit, but more of DnD style one not LOTR. It's between having halflings or just letting me make a 3'4" adult human being, because I also want to bring my DnD character. XD

Well, earth elves are considered to be very short and hobbit-ish. Though these questions could all be better answered by Kaylii.
OH and you said your normal humans had weird things. Like what?

Like for Awvurn it's his prosthetic limb, as an example, even though in blood he is just an average human.
Actually, now that I think about it, I don't really have a lot of average human characters. Even Cyril has some non-human characteristics (but it has nothing to do with role-play and I am not really supposed to go blabbing about that stuff).
But let me see. To demonstrate I will give a (somewhat short) list of characters and characteristics that limit me from taking them here.
Ratchet: Is a werewolf. A real shapeshifting werewolf. He doesn't match the physical description of the ones here (dark skin etc) besides his size.
Shekle: COULD ALMOST WORK HERE. Just one problem. He was originally written to be able to manipulate fire because he's a half-blood (something...which I will never tell...mwahahah).
Shepherd: Because he is a made up species (half-wolf) I have never found a place to role-play him, which is a pity because he's my favorite/oldest unchanged character.
Silas: Is a halfling.
I could keep going but some of my characters are actually outrageous as far as being able to take them anywhere to role-play (like my kitsune) so it's pretty pointless.
Actually the only reason I am hesitant to bring Cyril here is because the werewolves sound absolutely out of his league and I am afraid he's going to get gang raped if he even tries to hunt them. XD Also I just wanted to bring a couple here because I have so many characters I might as well use some of them.

In terms of the elves here, yes it is a non magic community. The vampires had killed so many off that the elves forgot how to conjure magic, mostly because of their rich human blood. In the descriptions though, which is below the first post on the elves (people keep missing this for some reason lol) that elves do have influence over certain things, depending on the breed.
As for the enchanted arm.... Unlike in Two Worlds there really is no magic left to make it act as a human arm. If you found a scientific way to make it work in the Medieval era than neither me nor Kie could say not to it =) But I have no idea how that would work haha
And Kie is right, the wood elves are very hobbit like here, just not as hairy =P Having one that's 3'4 isn't any problem hehe
AS FOR SHECKLE. I don't know the full character, but if you want him to manipulate fire, you could work it more towards having influence or fire, since High elves over major influence over one certain element. Like, he can make it bigger by just staring at it, or has no trouble at all at making fire.
Looool poor Cyril </3

Well, there are some scientific ways to make it work, it's just I'm not sure they even have that kind of technology. It would require some kind of metal that is able to take signals from the nerves (like electricity, since the human body does create some electrical pulses) and basically use that to create energy to move the arm. However, that kind of technology is not really that common nowadays. It's expensive to get those kinds of prosthetic limbs, anyways.
Anyways. I will try to bring Shekle here, regardless of whether or not he can manipulate fire, and Cyril. If Cyril gets killed, oh well, I need something to role-play and I don't want to roll a new character (I have too many already).

Awwwwr <3 I'm sure there will be some sweet weres on here Cyril can hang with.
I admit it is a little hard to incorporate some characters on this site, since me and Kie twisted the species around a little and gave different perspectives. I'm still debating if I really want to bring Kaylii here, since I would have to change her entirely ; I already had to mess with Kaya
But it's nice doing something a little different. Kicks my muse back to life a little

Ratchet, whats the physical description like? Weres can vary based on where they live. Its just a general description
