Well I mean Wizards can be both Werewolves and Vampires. So can Muggles I believe.
I think Goblins, Centaurs, and Giants among other creatures are going to be prominent in the story line as well.

So I think I have a suitable history for my villain. He's a Muggle-born Wizard who's Father is a prominent politician. his parents don't understand him and believe he will be a liability so they try to cover him up, neglect him, all around abuse him. At age 11 he goes off to an American Wizarding shool where he thinks he will find comfort from his horrible home life, however he is tormented by bullies because of his muggle born status and since he never developed good social skills because of his parents he has trouble making friends. He becomes anti-social and ostracized and finds solice in studying the dark arts. He deveolpes an infatuation with fire and learns advanced fire based spells eventually becoming a master of advanced stages of Fiendfyre that are extremely powerful and deadly.

Is there any way that guy fits in with this... Or are they two separate character?

They are two seperate characters. My guy is just a minor villain. The other idea was for the main villain that would be the puppetmaster behind the entire storyline. My villain is a Wizard born into a Muggle family. (Ex. Hermione) The Main villain I outlined would be a Squib. A Non-Magical person born to a pure Wizarding Family....get it ? BTW I was reading the "How do you picture people" Thread and just remembered i remind you of a goth chick...

I know I'm trying to get more people but it's coming pretty slowly. I'm excited for Strafe and Yaujtas though.

Im already half way through the thought process for my char and should have it up by the end of today.
He is going to be a pretty morally ambiguous character, i suppose teetering on the edges of an anti-hero type of character ...

Hmm, I was thinking of a stealth based character. Maybe a thief or information dealer turned useful member of an organization? Think Mundungus meets Snake Eyes.

I'm still undecided on whether or not I will use this guy (for my first real RPG, having two characters might be a bit much...), but just tell me what you think of this bio. Name: Alexander MacDougal Species: Vampire Gender: Male Appearance: Hair: Black, very long Eyes:Tinted red Skin: Ashy and pale Height: 6'5 History: Alexander MacDougal was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. The only child of Hansel and Moira MacDougal, pureblood wizards, his life was neatly planned out for him from the beginning. His parents were among the richest in the wizarding world, owners of a massive chain of cloak shops, which Alexander was due to inherit. He was not particularly spoiled, but his future was made easy and clear. Like all British wizards, Alexander was sent to Hogwarts at the age of 11, where he was sorted into Ravenclaw. He was never the best student in class, nor the worst. He didn’t really understand what he needed schooling for when his future as a businessman was already perfectly set up for him. It was in the summer just before the start of his seventh year that everything changed. Alexander’s parents took him to their vacation home in the Bavarian Alps. While his parents wanted to have some alone time, Alexander set off to do some exploring by himself. To this day, Alexander regrets that he remembers so little of what happened to him on that mountain. It was so traumatic to him at the time that his mind simply locked away the memories. All he can recall is coming across a small cave in the side of a hill. He remembers walking in to explore the cave, but can not remember anything else until waking up in St. Mungo’s two days later with bite marks on his neck. As soon as he could stand he rushed to the mirror and saw himself with ashy pale skin, red-tinted eyes, and fangs. It was the worst tragedy he could imagine. Sure, vampires were accepted in the wizarding world, but they weren’t truly accepted. They were often shunned, avoided, and hated by some. The boy growing up to be the king of his own world was now doomed to be a second-class citizen, an 'untouchable'. His parents were very understanding of his condition and told him he could still have the future he was born to have and inherit his father's business, but he turned them away. He was completely consumed with bitterness and self-loathing. Before the start of his next year at Hogwarts, Alexander left his home with nothing but his wand, and never returned. He forced himself into accepting what had been done to him. He told himself that if fate had decided that he would spend his life as a freak, then that was just the way it was going to be. Disgusting himself with every moment, Alexander traveled out into the British countryside and forced himself to feed upon the blood of unsuspecting wizards and muggles for survival. He moved from place to place at random so that he could not be tracked as easily. When Aurors began to get too hot on his trail, Alexander left Great Britian and began traveling around more of Europe, still living mostly in solitude and infecting others for sustenance. Now, at the age of 27, Alexander has been living in that same manner for 10 years and is one of Europe's most wanted criminals. He has changed much since he first started his travels as a vampire. While he had at first bitterly accepted his status as a freak, he has now come to embrace it wholeheartedly. He has grown to be very strong and powerful through the constant drinking of human blood, and he seeks a new kind of life, one that does not force him to constantly be lurking in dark shadows and running from the Ministry at every step. Personality: After 10 years of living mostly in solitude, Alexander has little of what one might call ‘social skills’. He has little use for words and is easily angered by people who talk too much. He is also very dominating and self-important. Since he is both a wizard and a vampire, he sees himself as superior to normal wizards. He thinks that vampires should rise up and make the wizards pay for all the harsh and inhumane treatment they have recieved over the centuries. At the same time, he also despises many of his vampire bretheren for being so pathetically accepting of their place as second-class citizens. Specialties and Skills: Like all vampires, Alexander has superhuman strength and speed (though he is stronger and faster than most other vampires due to consuming human blood so often), he has an incredibly sharp sense of smell (specially attuned for smelling blood), he can heal from wounds at an incredible rate, and he can fly without the use of a broom or thestral. Additionally, Alexander still has his wand, and has all the magical training and skills of any sixth-year Hogwarts student. Since his transformation, Alexander has began to learn some of the Dark Arts. He especially likes using the Crucio and Sectumsempra curses. Patronus: Unknown, as he has never been taught to create one Wand: 12 inches, aspen, dragon heartstring core Boggart: Himself as an upstanding citizen and successful businessman

Name: Viktor Pavlov Country of Origin: Russia Gender: Male Species: Human (Unknown whether he is a half blood or pure blood as no one knows who his parents were) Appearance: Enchanted mask that portrays the user as having a skull for a face (This to strike fear into opponants), some light armor and a cloak as shown below. Early years: Pavlov was born in a small fishing village in Siberia, and was brought up by his grandparents as both his parents had died mysteriously when he was a baby. Life was tough for him as he lived in extreme poverty but Viktor always yearned for more even as a youngster, yet he was still unsure of what he wanted. One day Viktor was one his daily 2 mile trek through the wilderness to a secret fishing spot he had found that was plentiful in fish. But this day was different, as his path was blocked by a pack of wolves. Before he could comprehend the situation one of the wolves broke off from the pack and pounced on him, instinctively Viktor held out an arm to block the attack and waited for the impending pain. Instead there was silence, Viktor looked at the ground seeing his would be attacker writhing in excruciating pain and the rest of the pack having disappeared. This was Viktors first act of unintentional wandless magic but by no means his last. 5 weeks had past since the wolf incident, with his grandparents blissfully unaware of what happened as Viktor had chosen not to inform them. A strange cloaked man appeared in the village one day looking for Viktor. He offered him a free education and great power if he were to join him on the condition that he were not too return to "This muggle infested dunghill". Not one to look a gift horse in the eye, Viktor enthusiastically agreed, said farewell to his indifferent grandparents and left with the stranger. The man soon explained to Viktor that he had special abilities, those of a wizard. And that Viktor had potential to be the next "Dark Lord" though at this time Viktor did not fully understand the mans purpose for him but he went along with it. He told Viktor that his act of unintentional magic was indeed massively powerful and to be capable of conjuring one of the unforgivable curses as a novice was unbelievable. The man soon introduced him to his "associates", a group of 5 who called themselves the Death eaters. He spent many years under the tuition of the death eaters, what could be considered the same amount of time a child would spend in their seven years at Hogwarts. The training took place in an unknown Forrest populated by a variety of deadly magical creatures such as Goblins, Vampires, werewolfs etc. The Death Eaters insisted that this was to toughen him up so that nothing were to suprise him. Viktor disliked these Deatheaters a hell of a lot, and often contemplated killing them as he saw their supremacist ignorant views as despicable but he did not as he knew the knowledge they were providing him was very useful, so he bided his time. At the age of 18 he had been taught all the Deatheaters could give and was now quite the master of dark arts. Viktor then decided it was time to kill them as they were no longer of use to him, it had taken seven years of careful planning and fully utilizing his skills; as these wizards and witches were no pushovers. After 1 and a half hours of isolating and taking out the death eaters Viktor was finishing off his last victim and asked him a question that has been itching in his head for many years "Who were my parents you filthy mongrel!" the wizard ignored the query and said "You have exceeded all my expectations boy" then promptly committed suicide. In the ruins of his training camp Viktor picked up some armor, a hooded cape and a mask that from now on would be his only visage. Now free of these keepers Viktor set off to explore the larger Wizardry community. Never staying in one place, always searching for something of purpose for him to do and getting into many fights. He eventually found something to sate his thirst for blood in the form of assassination contracts from high ranking wizards. The contracts varied from vampires to high ranking wizards, but Viktor always made sure that they deserved what was coming for them as the punishment had to fit the crime. This meant that the beings he went after were complete scum. Currently Viktor is on the run after the Ministry of Magic has managed to find his trail. Personality: Having suffered much hardship and emotional trauma Viktor has disconnected himself from his emotions, he believes that "Without emotion i can kill much more efficiently", ofcourse he is lying to himself when he says this as he has a moral code. One that follows the rule of never harming the innocent (Though he wont risk his life for an innocent, as he views self preservation as his number 1 priority), thus showing that he does still have a glimmer of humanity. Viktor has a very Narcissistic personality and will always view his needs as the most important, with self preservation being a first. He has also displayed a sharp wit, which seems odd considering the life he has lived. Magical Abilities:Viktor is a master of the Dark arts and is very learned in them, he also has a basic knowledge of normal magic. Additionally he does not enjoy flying and uses conventional transport or apparition to travel. Magic he has Mastered:-Dueling: One of the main reasons he is such an accomplished killer are his brilliant dueling skills. -Wandless Magic - ever since that first encounter with the wolf he has excelled at this and uses it as one of his main skills. -The Cruciatus Curse: The only unforgivable curse he has managed to learn and master. He hopes that with time he will be capable of learning and mastering the other two. -Fiendfyre: The only other spell that has been completely mastered by Viktor and a heavily used one when faced with many attackers.
Magic he has an intermediate level of knowledge on:-Apparition: Can usually perform this, though it requires much concentration from him. Can perform this 7 times out of 10. -Petrification: Has only performed this 5 times. Not a master at it and rarely uses it unless all other hopes are gone. Magic he is a novice at: -Non-verbal magic: Can create nonverbal spells, but none of massive power i.e basic levitation (Hover spell). -Potion making: Has never been great at making potions and will never have a knack for it. He gets all his deadly potions from an underground vendor of the dark arts. Wand: Dragon heartstring (Not much knowledge on wands). Occupation: Assassin, when not assassinating he is a part time hobo (Nobodies perfect) Well guys thats it. Hope it isnt too long and he isnt too powerful ;D BTW: I was doing my research on the fly whilst making the bio so some stuff might not be correct.
