Cirque Noire

Cirque Noire is a French-made big top circus established in the middle of the seventeen-hundreds by the affluent and eccentric Deveraux family and their close friends. Settling now just outside of New Orleans, Cirque Noire captivates it's audiences and dared them to let go of their reservations as they would tumble head over heels into the unknown. Cirque Noire is so unimaginable, like a dream that you can touch and taste. However, everyone in the troupe shares one uniting secret; every illusion and fantastic talent was and always has been real. NAV

do vampires need human blood or can they survive on animals? do any of the other species have specific diets?

Hey friend! Great questions..

Vampires need blood to survive. They can survive on animal blood, but it won’t taste good and will leave them weaker than other vampires who feed on human (witch, fae, or wolf) blood. Something a little special to note.. the blood of the fae gets vampires high! It’s pretty addictive stuff, so let’s hope your little bloodsucker doesn’t pick up the habit! ;)

None of the other species have specific diets. Humans, Witches, Wolves, and Fae all eat human food. Vampires can eat human food if they want, too, but it doesn’t provide them with any sustenance or taste quite as good as it did when they were human. In their wolf form Wolf and Fae who take on an animal’s likeness, could eat things a typical human may not like like wild animals.

Her past is something of a mystery, wrapped in the darkest parts of her mind that Scarlett seldom dares to visit. There isn't much she can be certain of and what she is certain serves to break her heart further. She was a Fae infant stolen away by Anais Deveraux who spent the first twenty-odd years of Scarlett's life posing as her mother. For all Scarlett knew Anais was the only family she had and as Anais wanted it, Scarlett believed Anais was the only one to love her.  Anais spent years conditioning Scarlett to believe her best efforts were not good enough. Leading her to believe that she needed to work herself into exhaustion to be worthy of anything. Years of emotional and mental abuse cumulated with gaslighting and physical abuse plagued Scarlett's young life.

Anais assured her it was only tough love. Scarlett would have done anything for a single fleeting moment of her believed mothers love, even if it was hell to get there.  Scarlett rarely challenged her mother, fearing retribution, convinced that her mother was working in her best interest by imprisoning many of the circus performers. It wasn't until years later that Scarlett realized Anais had trapped her in a prison of her own. It lacked bars and locks, but like the others stuck under Anais's tyranny, Scarlett was stuck.

The years continued on, and while Scarlett often begged her mother for kindness and compassion. It became clear that Anais was slipping further into her devious corruption in the name of eternal power.  It wasn't long after this realization took hold that Scarlett decided something needed to be done. With the help of Kat and a local coven who had been following Anais's crimes for years, they were able to overpower her.

Scarlett knew her mother would never rest - enough would never seem to be enough. At that moment, Scarlett gave Anais two options, life or death. Life would come with bound powers to ensure she could no longer hurt another living innocent- Anais chose death. It was Scarlett who delivered the ending blow. In the end, it was Scarlett who was pulled to mourn and to rejoice freedom in all of its complexities.

Over time the Cirus was able to rebuild - it wasn't without help and healing, but soon the circus became everything Scarlett had hoped it could be. It was a haven for those like her. The ones looking for freedom, family, purpose, home- those who needed to belong flocked to Cirque Noire and Scarlett welcomed them all with love.  Over the next several years, Scarlett began to realize that everything Anais told her had been a lie. She was no witch, but a Faerie, a Phoenix as it would turn out.

Because of her Fae blood, Scarlett was hunted by some, becoming a target and being drained of her blood. It should have been the end for Scarlett, but she was born again from the fire that burned from the inside out. Scarlett is unsure of the limit of her abilities, rarely meeting other Fae and never meeting another Phoenix like her. Scarlett has spent the last several decades reclaiming her life, trying to uncover whatever she can stomach, and leave what is too painful hidden away. Over the years, Scarlett has taken new names, identities to continue to live unnoticed. Scarlett has yet to be able to shake the surname her once mother, her captor, and abuser gave her. Deveraux feels like her curse, and yet she can not let go of the only mother she ever knew.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

Scarlett is soft. Soft like roses with thorns that draw blood and like water that can hold up ships or sink them with one wave. She has always been this girl who held the uncertainty if she was ever a child at all. Or merely a wide-eyed woman with her ideals and romanticism. Things that keep her curious keep her longing and make her impossible to forget.  It would be a mistake to confuse her kindness for weakness As she will give you all she has, except her will and the anger that lives quietly behind her passion and love.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your maybe -

The Benefactor -Your closest confidant, your best friend, and first love. He has always been so much to you and meant so much more than you could imagine. When you took your mothers life and ended her tyranny it was Malaurie who you fell into. It was effortless to lean on him, to want him and need him. However, in your life, you’ve realized there are so many uncertainties- death, family, even what you are. You weren’t sure you could risk the uncertainty of him - even if that meant giving up on the certain passion. You remain close, how could you not?

Your lover -

The Arcane, you fall into bed with him as easily as you do dance. The physical is effortless- but the knowing seems to be a struggle. You enjoy his company, you enjoy nearly everything about him. Maybe it’s selfish due to him being another Faerie. Maybe your desire to know who you are and more so what exactly you are has you holding onto a ghost of a man who can never be all yours. 

Your reluctance-

The Epicure - a warm presence that fills you like late afternoon sunshine on a humid summer day. They are the parent you didn’t know you needed, and the one who push away at every turn. How do you allow yourself to love a paternal figure when you took the life of the only mother you’ve ever known? You don’t feel deserving, and you can’t seem to just let what feels natural happens. They’re younger than you and yet you feel as if they carry more wisdom than you could ever possibly fathom.

You are a career politician. Your dad was mayor as was your grand dad. You have a cousin in the senate and an aunt who worked in the White House under Clinton. You were born for this job, but you had no idea when you took it all the compromises you’d make to keep it. You’d always been a believer in the unusual. Heck, you grew up in NOLA, but nothing would prepare you for the knowledge that supernaturals were real or that you’d be bargaining with them for the safety and stability of your city.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You are a good man. You are, but you’ve compromised so many of your morals in the name of 'peace’ lately you’re not sure you are any more. It’s not like you to question yourself, but you have been as of late. You are usually so sure of yourself. As the perfect politician, none of your insecurities show. You walk tall in a tailored suit, shaking hands with citizens and signing deals with devils.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

The Femme Fatale  -

Your liaison to the circus. She’s beyond words beautiful, but you keep it strictly business. When the circus initially came to town she was the first of the trope to make your acquaintance, and has since been the one to always speak reassurance onto all of your doubts in regards to the trope’s presence in the city. You want to believe her that a circus of supernaturals won’t bring trouble to NOLA, but even her enchanting voice leaves you with doubts.

The Chief -

Your right hand, the one that helps you cover up the supernatural’s messes. He’s one himself, but with your daddy and grandaddy gone there’s no one alive you trust more. You’ve known him since you were both kids, and he’s helped you adjust to the stark reality of the real world. When he gives advice, you usually head it even though you suspect bias where the werewolves are involved.

The Vixen -

The regent of the New Orlean’s witch coven. Your new lover. She’s always whispering into your ear about what trouble the circus will bring to your city. You hear her, but you are more fearful of entities with greater power than even she who would dissuade you from running the troupe out of town; like Stefan Savin. The self-proclaimed king of your beloved city.

Following TVD lore for the vampires, are there daylight rings? And if so, are the vampires in employ of the Cirque provided them? Thanks!

Yes and yes! Daylight rings exist in our lore. Cirque Noire vampires are likely to posses a daylight ring or other piece of jewelry*, as long as they’re not brand new to the troupe. (IE: They joined a week ago) 

*Like in TVD, any piece of jewelry containing lapis lazuli could be spelled by a witch to protect a vampire from the sun.

You are cryptic, no one really knows what to think of you and even if they could it would never amount to the weight of the truth. You’ve worked years to become a ghost, to hide behind falsehoods and elaborate tales. It’s what you’ve always been good at. Swallowing your accent and saving your pride. Your idenity is yours and you’ll take it to the grave. Sometimes all you have in this life is truly yourself. Despite leaving ghosts behind you can’t run far enough to escape your involvement with Marie Deveraux. You helped her find more like you just to spare yourself from her clutches and now the secret haunts you. 

 "TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” - 

You are willing to run into the dark to go after those who matter most. Your loyalty knows no bounds and could sometimes feel like a burden you carry on your shoulders. You never know when to stop, your ambition always screams louder than your logic. But you, you can always scream the loudest. What’s yours is yours and you’ve never cared to share, even when it may be required to. You’d rather die than to bend against your will. You know in the end your experiences are all you have in this world and you’re going to grab them all even if they threaten to kill you.

" I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ - 

Your lover - 

Scarlett to the world, Red to you. Red not because of any physical trait, but Red because she is passion, she is anger and love. Red is the first Faerie outside of yourself that you met since you found yourself at Cirque Noire. You’re newer to the trope but you’ve been drawn to her since the first time you laid eyes on her. You two dance together, sleep together and despite it all you’ve kept her at a distance, closer than others and still not close enough.

Your enemy -

The lothario, you don’t trust them. Nevermind that they bought your home and turned it into a tourists trap they’re a vampire. You see the way they look at you, the way they look at the other Fae and it makes you uneasy. You keep them close knowing that it would be terribly easy for them to turn on you all and undo a life you have cultivated with one solid bite. You’re prepared, you won’t let them or anyone take you down without a fierce fight.

Your friend -

The crimson despite their new immortality doesn’t seem to have ever grown up. They are charming and clever as the devil but as naive as a new child. Too trusting, too careless with others emotions and even their own. You see them like you would a younger brother and feel a special kinship to them that continues to bring you closer. Thankfully they never ask the difficult questions; like who you are or where you came from. Truth is you’d rather no one know the ugly truth.

“LIKE STEPPING INTO A FAIRYTALE UNDER A CURTAIN OF STARS.” -

You were born and raised in New Orleans, a good southern boy with a wholesome family who loved you unconditionally. There was nothing in this world that felt out of reach to you. You were a star football player, you were dating the prom queen and madly in love. Your entire future felt planned. You were going to go to college, work at your dads firm, marry that high school sweetheart, and make roots of your own.  All of that blew up when you were eighteen years old, and she suddenly broke it off. You were heartbroken and looking for an outlet made some bad choices - your best friend died in that car wreck. You tried CPR, but they didn't make it. The next full moon everything changed. You couldn't stay in NOLA knowing your family's biggest secret, knowing what you really triggered. You ran- you ran until you couldn't go any further and the bright lights of a circus caught your attention- You were in Berlin at the time, having the time of your life. Little did you know everything would change forever when you went inside that big top.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You are a good man, it's what you tell yourself. You try to be the best you can be, and you even believe you're good. However, you're more than a little reckless. A bit of a partier with a chip on his shoulder, and something to prove. You mean well, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions. You had hoped you'd never grow up, that you'd been able to stay young and carefree forever. Time marches on, and you know so much more about life now than you did at eighteen. You're still at heart that sweet southern gentleman who ran away from his heartache all those years ago. The past is the past. You're hoping to keep living this life for as long as you can.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your ex - 

The Aesthete, she broke your heart once upon a time in a world that feels like a lifetime ago. Yet, when you see her, you can't help but linger a little longer on her wondering if she's changed as much as she looks like she has. It's strange being back home, her still being there but being different. Time marches on, with or without you. 

 Your alpha - 

The Savant, you respect him the way you should an alpha in a pack, but you can't help but challenge him. You make excuses saying it's to keep him on his toes, keep him sharp, but part of you can't help but believe you'd be a better alpha than him. 

Your interest - 

The Tailor, the pretty vampire woman who designs every fireproof thing you wear, has caught your attention. You've kept it friendly for such a long time- usually, you'd have already made a move, but something about this girl is different, and you just want to spend as much time with her as possible.

You were a soft child born into an unforgiving world, thankfully your family was wealthy and had the money to give you the best at the time. Sadly, your father was a drunk who ended up drinking himself to death, and your mother took you traveling, never stopping. The world was your home, and there was no door you wouldn't knock on. You lived your life with the values of peace and love, acceptance, and kindness. You had dreams of a sunny life on a beach, somewhere, with a family all your own. Sadly you were betrayed, sold out for some spell- the details matter less now. All that matters is the now, and now you're a vampire. The dreams you thought you had time for slipped away and now you have nothing but time and love. .

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You love, love. All kinds of love- platonic, familial, romantic, sexual...there are seven types they say, but you feel that that number is far too limiting. Love is infinite as your years. You may be naive in that aspect, so easily swept off your feet, softened by a good story of love. You are dangerous tho, as sharp as you are soft, a conundrum of tears and anger that frightens even you. You're not sure where it came from, maybe it was born when you took your last human breath. Either way, your anger, your aching, and your love- they're all yours, for better or for worse, forever.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your complexity - 

The Cynic, he was drunk and dying in some ally in someplace such a long time ago that you've forced yourself to forget the small details. You remember him, tho- you could never forget. You couldn't let him die, for some reason it was too heartbreaking to watch. So you saved him, you could have left, but you turned him. The relationship is complicated, and still, you've found yourself pulling him to bed more than once. 

Your best friend - 

The Amaranth, you met one night in Paris some years ago- you've learned not to count the years, it becomes depressing, but your friendship with Scarlett has always refreshed you. She is the moon to your sun - you love her without hesitation or reservation. Even with forever looking back at you, you can say undoubtedly she is your best friend. 

Your hope - 

The Bohemian, you see so much of yourself in her- the life you could have had, the life you wanted to have. Part of you is jealous, maybe even resentful of her. You sometimes find yourself trying to micromanage her life. You don't mean to, it's hard sometimes watching someone else get the life you once wanted for yourself.

You were found by Anais Deveraux in the late 1700s, a Faerie who grew tired of the expectations of the Faerie realm who decided to venture into the mortal realm for some adventure. Sadly it wasn't an adventure that found you. Instead, a cruel witch who had a terrible habit of collecting supernatural species, especially the rarer of the bunch to add to her circus. A perk of being a Fae was being able to shift from lion whenever you pleased- However, Anais kept you a caged lion until you were freed in the 1900s.  Unwilling to venture back into the Fae realm, you had left for a reason you decided to be a part of the change in Cirque Noire. You have been with them since the overtaking of the cruel Anais Deveraux nearly a century ago.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

It was difficult acting like a man after so many years being kept like a caged animal. You were feral, wild, and untamed for many years - skittish and timid around some and careful about who your approach despite your significant appearance. It's been years since your feral years, but some habits die hard. You are a strong man, intelligent and kind, and more than your intimidating appearance. You prefer to live your life naturally, enjoying nature, and the feeling of freedom after it was robbed of you for more decades than you care to count.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your lover - 

The Sovereign, your queen, your lover, your everything. You couldn't imagine doing a moment of life without her, she makes every moment worth living. There is no one else in the world who you'd feel comfortable shifting for. She is the lion tamer, and your entire act is lovingly produced to show the gentle intelligence of your inner self. 

Your reluctant friend - 

The Cynic, you've spent years attempting to have him open up to you. Countless nights drinking and sharing shallow tales but nothing too deep. You can sense he needs a real friend and you're trying to be everything to him that you needed in your darkest days. 

Your family - 

You're not technically related, but it's rare to see other Fae in this world. So the ones you do know you keep close to your heart. Especially the ones held under Anais's Deveraux's thumb same as you. The Femme Fatale, The Arcane & The Amaranth.

You have survived your entire life on street smarts. Your parents weren't the most put-together people. In fact, you never met your father. It was always you, your mom, and your brother. You three relied on each other, and when your mom disappeared, it was just you and your kid brother. You did your best to help him survive, to ensure you both did just fine. But child protective services often intervened separating the two of you until you turned eighteen and aged out of the system and ran away with your kid brother. You both lived on the streets until the circus found you both and gave you family- no one could replace your mother. Despite being safe with the circus, you still wonder where she went and if you'll ever see her again.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You are calculating and intelligent, despite your lack of formal education. You're living proof that critical thinking and ingenuity is far more essential in the game of survival than algebra or knowing the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. You've poured over books to teach yourself what public school didn't, but everything else is all you and you're not afraid to let anyone know it. You may have a place to call home and people to call family, but you've never stopped trying to survive, never stopped pushing back against the world even when the fight ended.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your brother, your problem - 

The Hellion, and ain't he so- your kid brother is a whirlwind of fists, limbs and bad decisions. There isn't a problem he's started that he hasn't in some way dragged you into. He's a wild kid with a wild heart and does more damage than good, even when he's got the best intentions. He's your brother, your blood and there isn't anything you won't do for him- at least not yet. 

Your beacon - 

The Amaranth, stealing from her, was perhaps the biggest mistake and best thing you had ever done. She was pretty, dressed well and seemed unaware so when you hooked up with her and then robbed her, you didn't think she would have retaliated. You were wrong. She found you in the slum you and your brother were living in. Instead of taking back what was hers and leaving, she took her belongings and gave you and your brother home. 

Your trainer - 

The cataclysmic, he's not much for small talk, and you can't seem to charm your way through to him, but he's a great fighter and in fantastic shape. You know you're a witch, but there are plenty of things out there stronger and faster than you and your magic. So when all else fails you want to be ready, you never want to be caught with your guard down.

“LIKE STEPPING INTO A FAIRYTALE UNDER A CURTAIN OF STARS.” -

You were born in the 1900s, a young man during the first world war you did what any other American boy drafted was expected to do; you went to war. The horrors you witnessed while there was beyond anything you could have ever imagined. It ended, and you went back home, unsure of what to do with your life now. You eventually fell in love and started a family with a wonderful woman. Sadly you lost her and your child, and you entered a war of a whole new kind. You thought you were going to drink yourself to death; you would have unless she found you - she saved your life, and on the brink of the end she gave you new life and a home that never sat still, Cirque Noire.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You've never felt like you've had any talent, anything to offer the world but what your hands could do in a war. When you lost the woman who loved you, you thought you'd never have anyone again. Let alone anything again - you're somewhat of a pessimist, even after all these years you find yourself asking what if, maybe and if only- Life can be cruel sometimes so you've used your talent to compel away pain, and broken hearts and in your spare time you put on a circus show mock hypnotism for a few applause. Your real-life purpose is yet yo be discovered, you only have forever.

The Quixotic, she saved you made you who you are. If it weren't for her finding you in that alley drunk and near-death, then you'd be buried with your wife and unborn child by now. However, she did save you, and in some complicated way, you have a never-ending affection for her that sometimes over the last several years has found you in her bed. 

Your drinking buddy - 

The Alfresco, he's not entirely a friend, despite having lived with him for the past several decades in Cirque Noire, but he's as close as you seem to have gotten to anyone. It's all on you though- you continuously push people away, pretend you don't care when all you do is care and fear that all of this will be gone in a flash like the past lives you've lived.

Your mistake - 

The Zealot, you aren't sure if she will forgive you- you were once close to her, closer than you have been to anyone since your late wife, but you ruined it like you do and now she won't even look at you.

“LIKE STEPPING INTO A FAIRYTALE UNDER A CURTAIN OF STARS.” -

You were always soft, the perfect girl next door. You were a witch and your entire life you knew that that meant something to your coven, to the people around you but you had other things to worry about. A future, a life outside of the coven expectations and the constant worry of the ancestors who seemed to control everything you could do. Because of this, you felt you were distanced from your magic. So when the Harvest rolled around you were so sure you wouldn't be picked; you hardly practiced your magic. Imagine your horror when you were chosen. The other girls were thrilled, but how could you be? Death no matter how fleeting wasn't something you signed up for. What good were you or any of them as witches if they couldn't perform without appealing to the long lost ghosts of witches past? You ran into safe arms, you ran away, and yet you're still here waiting for the moment this all blows up.

“TO BE, RATHER THAN TO SEEM.” -

You were busy falling in love, and going to college while the other girls in your coven were casting, and practicing the ways of magic. To any other person, this magic that ran through your veins would have been spectacular, but when it was all you ever knew it felt like more a burden that prevented you from living your life the way you wanted. And the way you preferred was in a cute sundress, going way too fast in a car with someone pretty by your side. Life was too short not to love many, to not love often - to not get what you wanted when you wanted. Maybe that makes you selfish, but better to live selfishly than not to live at all.

” I CANNOT STOP DREAMING ABOUT YOU.“ -

Your best friend- 

You didn't have many girlfriends in your coven, you weren't exactly popular with the other girls who thought you were wasting your talents. However, The Catalyst understood your desires, your hopes, and anguish at a life that wasn't really your own. It was no time at all for the pair of you to bond. You've only known her a short while, but she is your best friend. 

Your savior - 

The Tailor, she saught you out knowing of the Harvest sacrifice from vampire rumors. Maybe you shouldn't trust a vampire, but she offered you refuge and backed you when you needed a place to wait out the Harvest. 

Your crush - 

The Hellion, he's beautiful, he's reckless, wild and every rushing feeling you've ever felt in life seems to have wrapped up into him. He radiates adventure, and despite the warnings of danger, you can't help but try and get closer despite how he may burn you.
