I'm looking for people interested in a group roleplay that involves nonhumans. Here's the synopsis:
The Otherkin is a roleplay revolving around a group of people that have, at one point or another in their lives, discovered that strange things really do go bumping in the night. Unfortunately, a lot of these strange things like to sexually assault unsuspecting humans, and some of them even go as far as to kill their victims afterward. Where do they come from, you might ask? Well, there are no definitive answers, but there are theories. The strongest theory is that these creatures come from different realities, though there are some beings that seem to go against that hypothesis, like angels, demons, aliens, ghosts, and so on. Regardless of where the Otherkin originate from, they have begun to fill our world, and not all of them are friendly.
The majority of Otherkin find a unique niche in society and eke their way through their lives without ever being discovered, while others keep themselves completely detached both physically and psychologically. Some even band together and work with humans, and have formed a strange subculture in an attempt to blend together the uniqueness of both worlds. No matter how they interact with humanity, though, any Otherkin that cause problems are eventually going to catch the attention of Theronites, or Hunters. These individuals are as diverse as the Otherkin themselves, which the Theronites colloquially call "OK's" (pronounced okay's). While not every Hunter thinks the Otherkin are outright evil, most Hunters are usually wary of them to some extent. After all, most Theronites start their careers in response to surviving a gut-wrenching encounter with an Otherkin.
Though not united as a group, the Hunters do form groups from time to time. After all, you can't take down all the malicious Otherkin by yourself, but you can damn well try harder if you have people to watch your back for you. Each group is as different as the Hunters that they are comprised of, and there's nothing to stop two Theronite bands from feuding with each other over something, save for hearing rumors about people going missing in the next town over. Even then, though. Neither the Theronites or the Otherkin have laws, though there are those who like to think they can actually make them, even by force. Who could blame them?
Anywho, I'd like to hear the opinions of the community on this concept, and would love to get a feel for anything and everything you may want to see in this. Whether you want to hunt a pack of vampires prowling the nightclubs of a large city, fend off ogres that are harassing a small town in the middle of nowhere, seal away an incubus that has awoken from his thousand-year slumber, or throw yourself into the web of intrigue that makes up the Otherkin-Human underground, be my guest.
