The year is 2012 and crime in Manhattan is escalating. The five famalies of NewYork have seemed to have dissapered without a trace and street gangs are running rampant. Though something unnatural seems to be lurking the streets at night. Many people hear the myths and tales of a war between vampires and werewolves though fewer know that these tales are true.
With the next generation of Immortals the two speices see a way to use their abilities for finacial gain. The two groups have formed crime famalies with the idea that they will make the city theirs. Though they are not expecting what is around the corner.
OK so this RP will have a hint of strategy involved. The two famlies will have diffrent territories and their main goal is to secure majority of the territores.
The way capturing terrtories would be as follow.
-Players will be given the oppurtunites to earn money doing various illegal activies. For a postive outcome they would need to rely on a dice role. Even is a good result which would lead to money while an odd dice roll will lead to negative effects (Like injury or losing money}
-With the collected money players will be able to buy various items and weapons which could be used to take over the areas from the current gangs occupying the terriroy. Certain weapons will be better for certain terrotires.
-Then after a terriotry is controlled its rinsed and reapeat
Since I defintely will not be able to montior this at all times I will be looking for various Co-GMs. I would appreciate more experianced GM's to help me out with this.
I also know there are various flaws I may not be aware of so if you think somehting would need to be changed or something added to make it run smoother speak up. I'm open to suggestions.
Character Sheets should be up later in a couple of hours.
Vampires: Vampires are made when a human are infected with the "lamia" virus. It usually is passed on by blood to blood contact though any exchange of any bodily fluids runs a risk of infection. Only a 5% of those who contract the virus turn into vampires. The transormation is rather painless compared to the Lycan transformation.
After the transformation a human can change anytime they see fit. When they transform, their eyes turn a startling shade of dark red, while their canine teeth lengthen to become pointed fangs. In their normal or "relaxed" state, the Vampires look like normal humans. Vampires display all of the following traits: super strength, reflexes, coordination, speed, resilience and stamina, regeneration process and heightened senses. Though their senses and strength are weaker than Lycans their speed and stamina is greater than their Lycan counterparts.
Vampires can survive at in the sun in their relaxed form but the sun still blinds them so many get aroudn this by wearing sunglasses. Though overall Vampires are weak to fire at all times, relaxed or transformed. If a vampire comes in contact with fire they would be turned to ashes in seconds.
Although vampires can survive without human blood, they have an intense craving for it. Refraining from drinking blood is possible, but is thought of by most vampires as a futile gesture, and almost always fails. While abstaining from drinking blood, vampires will start to remember in vivid detail all the people they have slain. This sudden flood of memories contributes to the failure rate.

Lycan: Lycans or "Werewolves" are created when a human is infected with the lycanthropy virus. It is spread by the infected fangs of another Lycans who injects the virus into the victims blood stream when bitten or attacked. 5% of people are able to actually turn into Werewolves. The transformation unlike vampires is a painful prosses. Though as a Lycan grows older the transformation becomes faster and less painful.
After the transformation majority of Lycans have control over their new forms. Though on occasion some can not control when they change and may lose control to "the inner beast" at any time. Their canine teeth are longer than vampires and humans when in their "relaxed" stated. Also their hair seems to grow longer when in human form.
Lycans display all of the following traits: super strength, reflexes, coordination, speed, resilience and stamina, regeneration process and heightened senses. Their speed and stamina however are not as devoloped as vampires though thay are far stronger and
have greater senses.
Vampires do not change under a full moon though for those who do not have control over their powers this is the point in time when many change into mindless beasts. Their main weakness is their allergic reaction to silver. They can not touch anytype of silver or they will revive serious burns and become weaker over time slowly changing back to their
human form and dying.
Werewolves need meat to survive. Many tend to try to only eat animal meat though when gone to long without a sufficient source of meat thay will be overcome with a need for human or vampire
flesh.

Name:Anton
Gender:Male
Race:Lycan
Appearance:6' 5" Tall, 280 pounds. Looks very muscular, but wears baggy clothing to hide it sometimes. Light blue eyes, almost white in appearance and looks very cold. Has hundreds of torn looking scars all over his body. Very large canines, almost stick out of his mouth, and very sharp. Has dark brown hair, very shaggy on top and a large scruffy beard. Keeps a bag with him, never opens it in public. Tan skin and a tattoo of a skull on his left arm.
Personality:Likes to think of himself as the Alpha male. Very head strong, stubborn, and proud. Helps those that are weaker if they accept him as their superior, Otherwise very malicious towards them. Can't stand vampires(Obvious enough...)
Bio:Anton started out as a farmer in Romania. He was raised as a farm hand, being separated from his birth parents at a young age and being picked up by a farmer. He gained strength from some of the heavy lifting, and was accepted by the farmer as one of his own. He was now part of a family of 5,His father, mother sister and brother. He loved them all very much. When he turned 13 he was working in the field one day with his brother when they heard deep growls coming from close by. Anton raised the scythe he was working with in defense and heard his brother scatter off, in search of help no doubt. He held the scythe to where the last growl was heard and was hit from the side, the wolfs fang sinking into his right arm. He yelled in agony as he hit the ground, whipping the scythe pitifully at the wolf as it locked down and broke his arm. He managed to slice it across the face with the blade of the scythe, stopping it momentarily. It wheeled back around and jumped at him. Anton thought he was done for. He waited for the wolf to finish him as he heard a bang, the wolf was knocked back as his father ran over with his brother, shotgun in hand as he stepped over Anton and loaded another shell in. The wolf growled as he got back up. Its eyes flashed red as his father shot him again, the wolf jumping back up and running off. The father was shocked the beast had lived, but he would have to worry about that later. He picked Anton up and brought him back to the house, His broken arm bleeding a lot. They put a simple splint and bandages on it, until they could take him into town later that week. Anton had headaches and rolled around painfully in the night, breaking out in cold sweats and waking up on the floor. The doctor gave him some medicine to take, but other than that he was sent home. One night Anton woke up and his broken arm felt great, and much to his surprise was healed, But he was on the floor again. He looked around and smelled something... bloody, but appetizing. He looked over and saw the body of a dead chicken, and the bones of another next to him. He yelped in surprise as he got up and looked at himself. His clothes were ripped and he was covered in blood. Confused he sat on the bed and put his hands on his face. He then something in his mouth that he wasn't used to. He felt his enlarged canines with interest, then pulled a small chicken bone out from between one of them. It finally made sense. He had killed the chickens while he was sleep walking... and then ate them. In a confused rush he ran out of the house and ended up running away. He stowed away on the next boat to who knew where, and was determined to set out and work wherever he turned up. He had made it to America... And began working.(Huh.. dunno how ill tie in the joining of the gang.. ill probably say it in my opening post)

Name: Rebecca Firenze
Gender: Female
Race: Vampire
Appearence: Rebecca doesn't look much like the typical vampire; she isn't a stick thin, ghostly pale femme fatal with a wardrobe consisting only of black, black and black with black hair and liberal application of makeup, though somethings she wishes she was. Instead, she is robustly built, both in strength (as strong as an average man) and in physical assets (one advantage of weighing more than six stone, she reminds herself), slightly tanned and dressed in whatever suits her purpose, which usually seems to be a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, along with the obligatory sunglasses, though she also has a long white canvass coat. Her hair is dark brown, almost black, and she wears little make up.
Personality: Relaxed and easy going, Rebecca is friendly enough, though sometimes the other vampires see her as an outsider. They joke that she should have been a werewolf, and this has led to a feeling of insecurity, furthered by her self-caparison to the 'proper' vampiresses. Despite this, she is loyal to her kin.
Unlike some of her kin, Rebecca does not enjoy violence, and though her fighting is done in an efficient and methodical manner, she prefers not to kill, and fights only if she must. The one exception is if her life or those of her kin are threatened, when the vampire instinct takes over and she will fight and kill without mercy
Bio: Before her transformation, Rebecca was a student, though what she was studying seems to be a blur. Working on and off to keep herself in university, her life had become boring and routine, and when a guy she hooked up turned out to be a vampire and infected her, it was almost a release. Joining the vampire mafia was a logical step, and Rebecca found herself reveling in her new life
Notes: I see a chance for some kind of Romeo and Juliet variant, as long as it's not to close to Twilight *shudders*
