The Crescent City

/ˈleks ˌtälēˈōnis / noun. the law of retaliation, whereby a punishment resembles the offense committed in kind and degree. New Orleans has always been a hot bed for the supernatural. What once was a bloody battle ground is now a thriving tourist city and a safe haven for vampires, werewolves and witches alike. But when a witch and an original vampire are murdered, it seems as though that peace might be a thing of the past. How do they survive when all sides think they run the Big Easy? How will you survive? Mobile Navigation var sc_project=11962661; var sc_invisible=1; var sc_security="fe9a7b98"; var sc_https=1;

“She’s got horns like a devil pointed at me and there's nowhere to run.”

full name: Harlow Alves

city of origin: Fort Lauderdale, Florida

physical age: 22

species: Witch

special ability: fire manipulation

occupation: Bartender at Sixes

faceclaim: Camila Mendes

⇨   B I O G R A P H Y

In Florida, the Alves witches have always been relatively well-behaved. The family used their powers rarely, and only for simple spells and basic potions. It was their belief that you should always keep your head down. Working with too much magic would draw attention, and attention drew danger.

Harlow broke the status quo. Brash and stubborn, she had never been known to keep quiet. In school, she was popular among students, not quite well liked but well feared. Her little pranks started out almost harmless but grew quickly into feats of great danger and humiliation. She was constantly in trouble, starting fistfights or bullying substitute teachers. Cunning, she could easily manipulate the teachers and other students until she got her way.

And that was all before the fire worked its way into her veins. She’d stumbled across an empty burning warehouse at fifteen. The firefighters arrived and put it out before much damage was caused. But something about the sheer power of the fire appealed to her; she couldn’t stop thinking about it. She didn’t know if it was a special calling or a fluke, but it seemed like the little matches she lit in her room at three in the morning obeyed her. She could control them, build or shrink the flames with little effort. For the first time, she studied compulsively, learning everything she could to make her fire better, stronger, faster.

The first building burned so quickly,  by the time emergency teams arrived, there was nothing left but soot. It was the first, but far from the last. After her high school graduation, Harlow took off to New York. She wanted to rule the city, but it was a slow process, getting to the top. She learned from other witches, watching them and then breaking all their rules.

A night in the club went wrong, a stranger trying to get his hands up her skirt. Harlow was too fast and reckless with his murder, and she left the city before the air cleared. Now running from the law, she set her sights on the Big Easy as her next target.

“Words, how little they mean, when you’re a little too late.”

full name: Ally Westbrook

city of origin: New Orleans, LA

age range: 28-40

species: Untriggered Werewolf 

occupation: Up to Player

faceclaim suggestions: Jessica Alba, Emilia Clarke, Sophie Turner, Odette Annable, Imogen Poots, Aubrey Plaza, Nina Dobrev

⇨   B I O G R A P H Y

Ally’s parents were both werewolves, and they both had triggered the curse. They had two children, Ally, and her younger brother Mathew. Both children had been born with the curse, and unlike her brother Mathew - Ally wanted to trigger it. 

Her parents didn’t want either children to trigger the curse, and wanted them to live a life without being forced to shift every month, and becoming slave to the moon. However, being riased inside the pack - This only fueld Ally into wanting to become a member of the pack who could shift. 

Her childhood was as normal as it could be, and she eventually graduated highschool - and promised her parents she would attend college at the local university. But two years into studies, and not being able to settle on a degree - Ally dropped out, and moved back into her parents home. Mathew had left New Orleans all together, and found a life outside of the city. Ally got herself a job at a local business to help her save up for her own place - and she started looking for future roomates. 

One work shift, Ally was alone and closing up the shop - when someone broke in and tried to rob the store (Or whatever business) Ally freaked, and tried to call the police, but the person cut the phone lines and she was unable to call for help. Ally agreeed to give the person all the money that was in the store, but when the person wasn’t paying attention she pushed him out of the way and he fell to the ground. On his way down, he hit his head on the counter - and it killed him almost immedietly. 

This obviously triggered Ally’s curse, and she was now forced to shift every full moon. Ally is now fully involved with her pack, and doing whatever she can to help them out.

“Look at this god forsaken mess that you made me.”

full name: Alexander Jones

city of origin: New Orleans, LA

age range: 24-30

species: Human

occupation: Up to Player

faceclaim suggestions: Osric Chau, Henry Golding, Alex Landi, Charles Melton, John Harlan Kim, BooBoo Stewart, Avan Jogia

⇨   B I O G R A P H Y

Alexander was the oldest of four children. He was the only son, and he hated what had filled his town. His parents had told him the horror stories of what the supernatural creatures had done to the town, and Alex had hated what had become of New Orleans. Wanting nothing more than to rid the city of the creatures, and create a safe place for his sisters and the other humans.

That was until he fell in love with a vampire, and almost forgot about his hatred for them. Alexis, the vampire he fell in love with, showed him why all of them were in town, and explained the rules of the peace treaty that was created by the witches to protect the humans. She wanted to turn him, so that they could be together forever, but as much Alex had loved her, he never wanted to become what she was. He didn’t want to even entertain the idea of becoming something that would threaten his family - and in fact he had to keep his relationship a secret from his father. 

The day had started like no other, when he learned that his worst fear had happened - when his youngest sister, Jamie, was found on the brink of death. He begged Alexis to save his sister, and Alexis tried, but as she went to give Jamie some of her blood - Jamie had took her last breath, and died in Alex’s arms. 

Alex was a mess, and he blamed Alexis. It was her fault that his sister had died, and she didn’t save her. He ended things with Alexis, by pushing a wooden stake into her heart, killing her, and his hatred for vampires and the supernatural grew. He wanted to rid the town of the damned regardless of the peace treaty.

Sarah was born to the affluent Trumell family in the late 19th century. She was the middle child of three children. Three sisters, and her parents were very proud of them. They were all educated, and beautiful. They would find wonderful, and rich husbands as they should. 

Sarah was the only sister that would follow her parents directions. While her sister were wanting to marry for love, or not marry at all - Sarah decided it would be much easier to do as she was told, and follow the orders that were laid out in front of her. 

When she turned 17 - she was introduced to the only son of an aristocrat, and what would be her future husband, alexander. 

Sarah and Alexander would marry soon after meeting - and of course this made her family happy. Their union brought the Trumell family more money, and more land. However, Sarah found herself becoming more and more unhappy. Alexander was never home, and when he was they almost never spoke. The two would only act happy during social events, and would go back to pretending the other didn’t exist when they were alone. 

Their relationship would begin to decline one Sarah realize that she was barren and could not carry a child. That was all Alexander wanted was a son, someone to take his last name. The two would eventually become aquantiences. Alexander had many mistresses, and Sarah over looked them - knowing that she wouldn’t have to put up with him as long as they were around. 

One day, while she was in town - she met another woman. Sarah felt a weird trusting feeling with the woman, and needing someone to speak too - she told the woman about the problems within her failing marriage. The woman told her she could change her life forever. Sarah was intriigued, and agreed to meet her that night. 

When she arrived to the womans store - she was meet with a cup of tea, and the woman insisited she drink it. What Sarah didn’t know, was the woman was a vampire - and had laced the drink with her blood. 

Sarah drank the blood, and the woman then killed her by breaking her neck. When she awoke, she was greeted with the deep smell of iron, and she quickly fed from the wrist that was extended in front of her. This completed the transition. The woman helped Sarah escape her life that night, and they traveled to the states. Sarah leanred to control the blood lust, and eventually aquired a daylight ring. 

Once she arrived in the states - she made her way into a town named New Orleans, and she would live out here life in the safe haven. She decided to go back to using her maiden name, and wanting to erase all memories from her past. Sarah decided to take it upon herself to help new vampires, control their blood lust and teach them how to feed and erase.

“You knew it still hurts underneath my scars, from when they pulled me apart.”

full name: Henry Stone (Adoptive Name) 

city of origin: New Orleans

age range: 30-38

species: Werewolf 

occupation: Up to Player

faceclaim suggestions: Michael Trevino, Jesse Garcia, Richard Cabral, Tony Revolori, Tyler Posey, Carlos Valdes, Michael Vlamis

⇨   B I O G R A P H Y

The stories that Henry heard about his adoption was always the same. He was left on the door step of a man and woman who took him in as their own. They named him Henry after his adoptive father, and he took their last name Stone. Because of his adoption, Henry had no way of knowing that he carried the werewolf gene. In fact growing up, he wasn’t even aware of the supernatural being that existed all over the city. 

  When Henry turned sixteen, he got his license as every other sixteen year old did. He was driving reckless with three other boys in his car, as they were all on the way to a party being thrown by Henry’s crush, Alfie.

When they stopped at the red light, a car in the lane beside them revved their engine indicating that they wanted to race. Of course Henry wouldn’t back down on a challenge, and he floored it once the light turned green. Pushing the car to the max speed of 120 MPH, Henry was in the lead - until he lost control of the wheel and the car went over the guard rail and into a nearby swamp. 

Henry woke up in the hospital, and learned from his parents that his best friend, Michael, had died on impact, and, David, his other friend and the other passenger in the car, was in critical condition. What Henry didn’t know, was that because of Michael’s death - he had triggered the werewolf curse. The next full moon was only two weeks away, and not aware of how this would change his life forever. 

On his first transition, it was painful. He didn’t understand what was going on, and in his bedroom the 16 year old shifted into a brown wolf for the first time. He lost control and killed his adoptive parents, as well as his older brother. When he woke up the next morning - His memory was blurred, and he woke up in the middle of the woods. Naked, and alone. 

Eventually Henry would find the truth about his real parents, and he learned that they left town at the first sign of trouble. They wanted their son to be able to grow up, and live a normal life - which did not happen. He joined the local pack in town, and is doing the best he can under his circumstances.
