    Intro


    In cold dreary night a man stumbles down a deserted ally of gloom and puddles. The previous day rain had come as the man stumbles in a drunken stopper. A dark figure closes in at alarming speed and almost floats across the pavement as if strings were attached causing an unbending figure to move towards its prey. A moon shines at quarter full in the distance the dark figure almost flies and grabs the man. Only a muffled cry for help is heard as two white glistening objects flash and sink into flesh both figures sink further into the darkness as death hangs in the air pining after its new found victim.

    NPC types
    Half demons or Monsters: Can either be good or evil it depends on what type of monster or demon and if they have been bewitched in some way. It is safe to say that caution is advised.
    Traits: stronger than humans, have abilities beyond normal beings, fight well, and have other abilities based on what the monster or half demon. These various nasty creatures can be defeated through different methods. The best thing is to consult your local truth minder for help.
    Minions: Follow any evil being that they perceive as strong. They have a strong sense of devotion towards this evil being.
    Traits: Normally have great strength and immense courage. However, these creatures are not talented in prolonged fights, only follow directions poorly, and are single minded in achieving their objectives

    Truth Minders: These guys can’t fight to save their lives but help the cause in any way they can.

    Traits: Love books, reading, research, and everything worth knowing about the occult and monsters of any kind due to their vast libraries and secret funding.

    Werewolves: Half human and half demon dog. They can rip you apart as soon as look at you never face one of these unless you are truly prepared
    Traits: While transformed werewolves are exceptionally strong, fast, agile, smarter than most dogs, can kill in one bite, live longer than regular humans, and can create other werewolves by biting others. However these people only transform around the full moon, are allergic to silver implements, can be shot with tranquilizer darts, and most hate the fact that they kill others.

    Other items: holy water 1 to 2 bottles, cross, a flair gun (various uses)

    History: Joseph lived in various places all over the United States and sometimes in different countries during his teen years. Joseph’s father was in the military and he and his mother moved whenever his father got orders to go and his father was allowed to bring his family. Living this way meant Jospeh made few friends and was awkward not to mention naturally gifted in the martial arts which he used to calm his nerves. Then one night several vampires came along and he had no choice, but to fight them and the rest was history. Growing up with the experience of fighting vampire and other demons meant late nights away from his family and danger for them if he failed. As he grew he met different truth minders who guided his talents and found his ability to climb mountains helped him fighting. When he came of age he decided to make a living in New York specifically in the queen’s area. His ability to hunt down bad guys translated well to being a policeman. So at the age of 22 he became police officer. His duties of protecting the public also mesh well with his duties as a slayer as sometimes suspects are not quite so normal. As veteran police officer he been assigned to homicide as a detective and this allows him freedom to see what others don’t. He also meet his “partner in crime” Walter who just so happen to be his partner while he was a detective. When he is not on duty at night he assumes his other role of vampire slayer. Of course no one is perfect and he most certainly is not. Joseph has lost people he like to vampires and other demon s and been helpless to stop it the one that caused him the most pain was when his sister was killed. Joesph sees the need for his skilled as a vampire hunter, but is still uncertain about his future.

    GM OOG/OOC: I really could not resist posting. To the one person that has a CS you are not required to post for another two to three weeks. Unless you want to.

    IC: Joseph Morgan
    Joseph asked “So what did they say this time?”

    IC: Walter Watanabe
    “They said it looked like another unexplained death over the radio. We both know that is code for killed by vampire, especially if we are assigned the case. You would think they would be little more inventive than that,” said Walter.

    IC: Joseph
    “Yeah tell me about it, this is the third death by vampire this week. I have also dusted at least five of them, subdued two werewolves, and stopped some strange sort of heart hunter monster. “
    Joseph said partially kidding and acting the excused vampire hunter, “I cannot believe it only the middle of the week!”
    Joseph said seriously, “Something is going on and I don’t like it one little bit. I cannot help but feeling this is beginning of something."
    Joseph said pensively, We are going to have to consider the possibility of consulting a truth minder maybe there is something we are missing.

    IC: Walter
    Walter asked in a whining voice, “Do we have to?”

    Walter continued not waiting for an answer,Those guys are so, Walter paused as if choosing his words, depressing and wrapped up in research.

    IC: Joseph
    Joseph chuckled and said, Yeah, I wonder if some of them are robots.
