The Masquerade Ball was meant to serve as a city-wide olive branch. The Mayor wanted the peace treaty to be real, considering he summoned demons of his own. He had prayed all would be forgiven by the end of the night. However, not all Saints are merciful. After maiming and killing many of the guests behind closed doors, El Santo found his Judas. At midnight, he cut the power on the Estate and hung the mayorâs lifeless corpse over the stairwell railing, and when the lights were turned back on five minutes later, there was a message carved into the mayorâs chest for all to see â âTHE WAR IS NOT OVER.â
With an ongoing investigation in the weeks to come, itâs best for everyone to lay low and stay off their phones. You never know who'll be listening, and you never know whoâll be next.
*This wraps up the event. The following threads should pick up after, with your characters listed as potential suspects in the murders that took place at the Ball. Feel free to suspect each other, as you never know who assisted in these savage slayings. It could have been the person you were with or a person you just met. Everyone is a suspect and everyone should be scared.*

Itâll probably be coming to a close officially this weekend. Acceptances are tomorrow so we want to at least give new members a chance to interact in it, although they donât have to. Weâve both been sick so sadly, we didnât get a chance to do the plot drop while itâs been going on so weâll post it as an aftermath to the event. Stay tuned!

Black satin, the feeling of being stripped with just a glance, the brush of wind that sweeps your hair off your shoulders, a gold chain dangling beneath clothing, a blue flower surviving winters frost, the scent of vodka masked by perfume, dark eyes, shadows that move around you, a scream that makes no noise, feet that make no noise, anger hidden beneath a smile, resentment hidden beneath a laugh, graceful hands slipping into your pocket, a temperature so cold that it burns more than it freezes.
A P P E A R A N C E
On the outside and to a casual observer, Nina is pristine. She walks carefully, keeps herself tidy in appearance, and wears her features confidently. Itâs only on a second, more observant, look that one would notice that everything is a mask. Beneath her satin shirts are a myriad of old scars that dissect her body. The gang she was sold to was careful to concentrate their punishments on areas that could be easily clothed. She hates each and everyone of them, refuses to speak of them, except for one. As little more than a toddler, she was playing with her brothers, and stepped on a nail. To her, it is a reminder of the brief time in life when she had family.
The most recognizable of her scars is on the back of her neck. Asymmetrical, and still relatively fresh, this is where she burned off the old gangâs tattoo. She received the ouroboros at sixteen after her first successful job and for the better part of a decade absolutely resented it.
She wears her motherâs ring on a chain around her neck.
S K I L L S
Life has carved Nina into a survivor. Her adaptability and her willness to fill whatever niche life needs from her is her strongest attribute. Throughout life she has been the overlooked daughter, the refugee, the sold, and the thief. Her quiet and observant nature has been branded into something sharp and intuitive. She is better in the shadows and working behind the scenes than with physicality. An accomplished pickpocket, sheâd managed to steal the watches off of peopleâs wrists and the earrings from their ears. This slight of hand kept her useful in New York, but of equal effect was her ability to lie. The real Nina is often kept under several layers of falsehoods. She plays the innocent well, and the wide-eyed idealist.
When going hand to hand, she is at a disdvantage, but she has weapons training. She is comfortable working alone and under the orders of others. She has spent more than half her life living in unsafe conditions and does not get rattled easily. However, she has built pride up inside of her. Her angers burns cold and she is capable of removing herself emotionally from any situation. She desires to control her own life, and wants to gain the power and liberty to do so.
P E R S O N A L I T Y
Friends donât fall at your feet in Ninaâs experience. Her charisma, her charm, and her extroversion are all ruses that she can conjure at a moments notice. In reality, she is a generally quiet young woman who appreciates solidarity. Though she can come off cold, she is extremely passionate and lazer focused on her goals. She is pragmatic however, and understands how the world works. She does not expect her story to have a happy ending or hope that sheâll end up comfortable.
She trust no one but herself. Even those who she has built a friendship with are never privy to her deepest secrets. This kind of guarded life slowly erodes at her though and she suffers from bursts of extreme fatigue. She finds comfort in a long night of drinking or in a strangers arms.

A B O U T
Life began in a trailer park with little room and no security. No amount of money in the world could have protected her from the curse of her father. To him she was nothing more than another mouth to feed. Her older brothers could be fighters, Reapers, but to him she could be nothing more than a bargaining chip, a stepping stone, a vessel to fill with his own ambitions. What little kindness did exist in the world she received from her brothers. Ethan, on whose shoulder she could sit, and Nik who hid his true self away so effortlessly. She loved them both equally and together they were a shield between her and her fatherâs worst tempers.
Memories of those early years come back to her in fits and starts now. The creaking of the door when it opened, the leaking of the kitchen faucet, the spider web just outside her window that survived a full winter. While her brothers were taught to fight, she was taught to keep her mouth shut and her presence wanted. She became progressively good at going unnoticed. Her feet were light and her build graceful. It would be a small blessing for the future.
She was six the night her mother woke her, dressed her in black, and snuck out of downtown with her. She could not have known that for the next five years she wouldnât see her brothers, or her father. She could not have known that her mother had won the shine of the Lycan Alpha. After that night, she lived in an Upper Springs mansion with other Lycan protected families and children. Life here was different. Meals were better, beds were softer, and laughter could be enjoyed heartily. Her mother bloomed in the environment and she could see for the first time that beneath the surface she had a backbone and a will. She received an education and even some self-defense lessons courtesy of the Lycan Alpha and became more comfortable within her own skin. At night she would think of her brothers and listen to the sound of her mother restless and heartbroken by their absence. Nothing could replace them, or mitigate the loss. And five years later, she woke up one morning to find Ethan in the fold. He stood taller, wore himself more guardedly, but she knew him instantly. And by the days end she knew that there was no plan to extract Nik.
What followed was the worst day of her life. Excursions outside of the mansion were heavily supervised to keep her safe. She wasnât a little girl anymore though, and sheâd learned a few tricks. She left the compound one evening to go to a movie with her friend and en route was captured by her father and the Reapers. She was sold off by midnight to a gang in New York that would have use for someone as light-boned and pretty as her. She would resolve her fatherâs gambling debts and make herself useful. In a handful of moments before she was shoved into the back of a van, she saw Nik, even grasped at his hand. But she was snatched away before her words could be finished and spent the next three days being transported between states.
In New York, without a family, she was completely at the mercy of strangers. They dyed her hair blonde and kept her in a room no bigger than a closet. She was used as a distraction and as a transporter. No one would suspect a girl of her age to be transporting drugs or relaying important messages. She lived by their luxury, and with their punishments. All protection and all of her old life was stripped. Her clothes, her name, her voice belonged to the Wraiths. What developed out of this upbringing was a woman with a deep desire for control and power. She became an accomplished thief and liar. She became whatever she needed to be to survive.
The years unrolled themselves. Two, five, nine, twelve. For the first few she allowed herself to imagine her brothers coming to rescue her. She imagined Ethan grown more honorable and stronger than their father, and she imagined Nik. He was full grown and he wore himself with pride. These were the last flickers of her innocence and they died with her branding and her beatings. No one could ever own her loyalty, but she could pretend with the best of them. Within the Wraiths, she made friends with the other kids sold off to them. She even made herself known to the legacies, forging bonds that on her side, were nothing but strings to play at. When life was unbearable she would drink herself stupid and fall into dreamless sleep.
She was twenty-four when the law came down hard on the gang. Theyâd been in decline for years beforehand, and with foresight sheâd planned an escape. She secretly ratted on informers, supply routes, and anything that would buy herself freedom. While the lot of the Wraiths would rot in jail, she took a car and drove herself across country to escape enemies. For the first time in her life, she was free. The thought came for her to return to Houston, but for a while she kept a safe distance. She did not want to bring anyone hunting her down on what family might remain. And even more so, she feared going back and facing the fact that they may all be gone. Worse in her mind was the thought that they had given up on her. Sheâd been left to her fate, and put out for the crows to feast on. There was resentment that smoldered in her for that, it was in some ways a more dangerous emotion than her blind hatred of her father. So she lived town to town, hotel to hotel.
Sixteen months passed before she was found again. It wasnât by her family, but by the Reapers. She could have killed the agent before her, but that would only be a death sentence and so instead she listened. They offered her a place in their rankings, and a place in Houston. She turned them down and escaped the city that evening, but fourth months later that same agent was back. She would rather have died then sold herself over to their possession but in her mind there was more at work. Sheâd had her whole life destroyed by her father and the Reapers. Sheâd also seen the fall of a gang already. And what sweet irony it would be for her father to have a child decay the Reapers from the inside out. It couldnât be as simple as that however, and she knew it. Their offer wasnât born out of consideration, but out of what could be gained from her. She could not know the full extent however. She could not know that as she signed herself over to them that her brother had risen to Lycan Alpha. She was about to become a playing chip in this long war, and possibly destroy the last bit of love that remained for her in the world.
R E L A T I O N S H I P S
Brother: Growing up Nina had two brothers that loomed large in her world. Ethan and Nik.
For the past fifteen years she has had absolutely no contact with either. In the beginning, they were her protectors and her accomplices. Now only Nik remains and she has no idea when first arriving in Houston that he has become Alpha of the Lycans. There is a lot to unpack between them, which is even more complicated by their current positions. Nina, low ranking in the Reapers, and Nik on the opposite side. Over the years resentment has grown like a cancer inside of her for never being rescued. She was more bargaining chip than person and in the dark moments she has come to believe that she has been completely abandoned. The world has hardened her, pressed her of her innocence, and the girl that Nik knew is no more. They donât know if they fit together as a family anymore, or if they can somehow find even ground between them.
 Â
Wraith Acquaintances: Life in New York was a daily struggle, but not everything was hell. The Wraiths kept a tight grip on any of their bartered goods. In Ninaâs time, she found herself growing attached to some of the other cursed souls. They supported each other through the work, and even worked together to protect each other. This can work through multiple scenarios. When the gang fell, Nina worked as a snitch to earn her freedom. Currently there could be resentments, or people who are thankful for this insomuch that she helped bring down the infrastructure that kept them captive.
Hook-ups: Nina has lived an unsteady life and hasnât had the option of setting down proper roots with anyone. But she has had the chance for casual relationships. Some that even strike a nerve with her and linger in her thoughts long after their encounter.
Old Friends: From six to eleven, Nina was raised with the Lycans and under their protection. She made friends with other children of the gang members before she was sold off. Fifteen years later, Iâd love for her to come back into their lives and to develop all the emotions and the complexity of her now working for the Reapers.

clean linen, bedtime stories, coffee after coffee, sunny mornings, crafts on the walls, the smell of french toast on a sunday morning, yoga classes, soft kisses on the top of a head, black and white portraits, old painting in the attic, kind eyes and gentle hands.Â

There are faint, but constant, dark circles under her eyes, products of too many sleepless nights, either as a mother or a nurse. Her hair are always tied in a bun when she works and she lets them down the second sheâs out of her scrubs. She wears delicate jewelry, small rings and necklaces. Her ears are pierced with two holes and she has a faint scar on her belly button where there was once a piercing. She keeps her nails short, itâs easier to maintain with her job. She doesnât wear a lot of makeup, only things that enhances her features while looking natural.Â
S K I L L S
Lilaâs IQ is a little bit over the average. Sheâs quick to make right deductions and analyse a situation, which comes handy in her work. She has more medical knowledge than the average nurse, having watched many doctors and reading many books. Sheâs great at drawing and painting and sheâs able to do it mostly from memory. Sheâs very autodidact and taught herself French and Spanish. Sheâs currently learning a bit of Arabic. Sheâs very handy, living alone with a child she learned to do most things herself around the house and works with a surgical precision.Â
P E R S O N A L I T Y
Lila is overly compassionate, which has landed her in a few hot spots over the years. She was once naive but she learned to get more street smart over the years. She is gentle and caring with everyone but if anyone comes too close to someone she loves, there is something inside of her that unleashes and a different Lila comes out. Despite all that, there is a part of her that is guarded. She maintains a lot of people at an armâs length but does it with such warmth that most donât even realize sheâs doing it.Â

A B O U T
There was always a bright future paved in front of Lila Levine. From an early age, she showed a curiosity that surpassed the one of other kids her age. She had a thirst for learning that could be quieted down only by her love for drawing and painting. A mind that was both artistic and scholarly, Lila always had a smile on her lips and a kind gesture for everyone.
Lila never wanted to be the popular one in school, valuing real friendships over numbers. There was something in her that allowed her to always look past what people looked like or what they said, meaning she formed a friendship with people that were, at times, wildly different from her.
As she grew up, she was torn when thinking about what she would like to do with her life. She wanted to live a bohemian life, painting every day but she knew that it was not practical and would not sustain a family, something she dearly wanted to have one day. She had the grades to make it to medical school but instead choose nursing, as she felt she would be able to connect more with her patients that way.
Lila dated around in school and after, even having a few long term relationships but her heart was never fully into it because of him; Jacob Stryker. He was everything she wasnât but that did not stop them from forming a strong friendship. She never acted on her feelings, she was not his type, she was sure of that. But desperation called for action and the night before he was sent to jail, they hooked-up. It was everything she always imagined it would be and even more. When she found out she was pregnant, while Jacob was behind bars, Lila knew she would keep their child. And keep the father a secret from everyone, even Jacob. She did not want their child to follow in the fatherâs footsteps, not that he was a bad man, far from it, but he made bad decisions. But there were other reasons too. Lila wasnât sure if Jacob had any enemies, but if he did, the best way to get to him would be with his own flesh and blood. Lila had many sleepless nights thinking about that. It was also a way to protect Jacob. What good would it do him to know he had a kid out there while he was inside and unable to take care of it? He was already in a cell, he didnât need another burden on his mind. And maybe, just maybe, if she didnât tell anyone, maybe she would get over the man. But it proved harder to do when a part of him was at her side.
She raised her child on her own, struggling at times but proud of giving the kid a good life. There was no shortage of love for that child in her and the bond they share warms her heart. They are mother and child but also best friends. She supports the child in everything they want to do. She managed to get mostly fat shifts at the hospital, years of hard work paying off.
R E L A T I O N S H I P S
The best friend: The person that has been by her side for many years, possibly going as far back as childhood. This person would be honest with Lila, just like she would be with them. They have a no bullshit relationship and donât hesitate to call the other out if needed. But even with this person, Lila has always remained tight lips about the father of her child. They are ride or die.
Strong dislike: Lila gets along with most people but this is not one of them. It could be for many reasons, either they had a relationship with her best friend or Jacob that she did not like or they are a neighbor or coworker that get under her skin.
Good neighbor: This one is pretty open. This person and Lila are neighbors and they get along great but it would be fun if the person had some secret agenda, either because they are aware of the link she has with the Lycan or just because they are a shady character.

re: this group is cliquey (not the same anon btw) it is in part cliquey and sadly, it comes from the admins. the fact that you have 5 characters that are all in some degres shipping together is cliquey and makes it feel like the plot revolves around the ships and the admins characters. the admins post starters without replying to others first and they plot only with those who have characters that are there only to supports theirs. the group is cliquey, but mostly on the admins part.
After much discussion, we debated between even replying to this or deleting it and moving on because we are adults and we prefer to ignore childish behavior and/or unfounded accusations. Which all of these are.Â
If you have a problem, feel free to message us directly about it, OFF anonymous. Of course you wonât because baiting anons like these just want something to bitch and moan and cry about when they donât get their way.
Us admins actually date in real life. WE ARE REAL PEOPLE IN A REAL RELATIONSHIP WHO ROLEPLAY TOGETHER. YES! CRAZY, CONCEPT I KNOW, RIGHT???? Sure, there are people out there who do have significant others in rl but still choose to roleplay and ship with others and thatâs fine. To each their own. However, WE ARE NOT THEM.Â
We do not ship with anyone but each other. Itâs that simple. And the first time we did this group we had similar backlash for it and thatâs fine. Other people may not understand or disagree with our preferences and youâre entitled to your own opinion. Just as we are entitled to ours. If youâre joining primarily for ships or to ship with us (at least thatâs what it sounds like when receiving these types of complaints) then sorry but you joined or are looking to join for all the wrong reasons and this group is not for you. We, are not for you.Â
Not that we need to or even should have to explain this but, shipping with anyone else besides each other, we consider cheating. Thatâs our view, itâs how we look at it and weâre not going to change just because a stranger wants to bone one of our faceclaims. GET OVER IT. Seriously. Itâs our personal preference. Itâs OUR REAL LIFE MORALS. We arenât going to change them for you or for anyone. Maybe if you were in our position and you had the privilege of writing with your rl partner and someone you love then youâd understand. Until then, respect it or donât join. Itâs really that simple. We honestly donât care.Â
Weâve responded to a similar message like this before and were a lot more cordial and polite about it but honestly, itâs really irritating and we donât tolerate inaccurate accusations and petty, bullshit drama.Â
We have spoken to every member in the group either individually or as a whole. Weâve both plotted and roleplayed with others who have nothing to do with our ships together. Proof and evidence of that is on our blogs so I really donât know what youâre talking about? In addition to that, the plot doesnât revolve around our ships at all LOL which just goes to show you didnât even read it. Either that or you donât understand it, which is possible all things considered.Â
If you honestly wanted to plot with us, you shouldâve just reached out to us. Itâs not realistic and can be considered ooc for some characters to even interact at all. IE: Killian does not have many friends because people hate him. Heâs feared because heâs a psychopath. Would you be friends with a psychopath in real life? Not likely. Then again, who are we to falsely accuse what other people fancy in real life so ... I digress.Â
This is the last time we will address anything like this OOC. We have no problems discussing this 1x1 if anyone has issues. So, if you want to make a point or ridicule and police the way we run OUR OWN ROLEPLAY, then by all means.. come off anon and address us personally. :)Â
