Name: Ambrosia Equinox.Age: Appears to be 28, but real age is unknown.Character Type: Psychic/Vampire.Occupation: Shadow Hunter.Level of the City you Live at: The Bottoms.Appearance:Tattoos: Ambrosia has several tattoos; one is a black rose tattoo located on her inner right wrist. One is a black heart with a silver dagger through it, located on her outer left ankle. On her left shoulder is a tattoo of a full blue moon with black clouds surrounding it. On her left arm she has a tattoo of an odd symbol that nobody but Ambrosia knows the meaning to. On the small of her back is a tattoo of a fire-breathing Phoenix, it's flames shooting up her spine towards the base of her neck. And finally on the back of her neck she has the Japanese symbol for fire.History: You don't expect Ambrosia to go spilling her guts to you, do you now? Ambrosia's history stretches back to a time when the world was a completely different place, and during her very long life; Ambrosia has done more things then most people can ever dream of doing. Ambrosia was born a Psychic with two very powerful abilities; Telekinesis and Pyrokinesis. So, needless to say, Ambrosia never had a 'normal' life by any means. When Ambrosia was 28, she was turned into a vampire. The circumstances of Ambrosia's turning she's never revealed, nor does she intend to any time soon. Ambrosia carried her powers with her over into her new life. Er- unlife that is. Or is considered after life? Whatever people choose to call it, Ambrosia is a vampire with Physic powers. Now, onto how Ambrosia has spent her life. Some of the things Ambrosia has done, she's very proud of, and even brags about at times. Other things...other things Ambrosia refuses to talk about and is far from being proud of. But hey, you do what ya gotta do, right? That's Ambrosia's motto, anyway. Ambrosia has worked nearly every job imaginable, but her currant job is that of a Shadow Hunter. Which, by the way, Ambrosia loves. Ambrosia isn't good nor bad, she's simply Ambrosia. She doesn't kill humans and drinks synthetic blood most of the time. Unless she finds a willing donor, that is. If you were hoping to find out more about the mysterious, elusive Ambrosia, then you'll going to be very disappointed, because Ambrosia doesn't share her secrets.Extra: Ambrosia has a black tabby cat named Malaki that is always with her. Malaki isn't a normal cat, however. He never ages, heals fast and can shape-shift into any animal form that he wishes. Though Malaki is a very lazy creature and only does so when the situation calls for it, usually remaining in his favorite form of a black tabby cat. Ambrosia always carries several throwing stars with her, as well as a Colt and a silver dagger with an Onyx bejeweled handle. Ambrosia is also a very good fighter, in both hand to hand combat and sword fighting. Ambrosia is sarcastic, blunt, secretive and not someone who you want to piss off, that may be something you want to keep in mind. Ambrosia usually doesn't start fights, but she's never walked away from one. Ambrosia has a relaxed, 'been there, done that' kind of attitude, but don't think for one second that Ambrosia's temper won't flare up if the right buttons are pushed. If Ambrosia's Turquoise eyes turn pitch black, that's your cue to run.Malaki's Normal Appearance: [[[OOC: Shawn, if you don't like how I had her be a Psychic/Vampire, just let me know and I'll edit the bio.]]]

Come on guys don't start up a fight over grammar. I'm sure my grammar is questionable too and personally I'll try and spend more time proof reading before I post. Everyone has things that bug them, I hate it when people make that popping noise with gum, some people can't stand bad grammar. Maybe we can try and sound a bit friendlier when posting criticisms as well as trying to double check before posting for grammar and spelling mistakes.

Krysty vague history is fine, I think it works better when you keep things hidden and reveal pieces slowly, makes things more interesting.
Oh and Psychic Vampires are fine anyone who exists in the city can be turned into a vampire except demons. Also since they hate were's a hybrid between the two would be very unlikely.

Look guys... grammar, punctuation and spelling are important. They let people know what you mean. If you don't use it, then you end up saying stuff that is confusing and hard to work with. Nobody is going to be able to talk with someone who doesn't use periods in their speech... the natural pause just isn't there, and we'll be led to believe your character is talking at hyperspeed. The same thing goes for other kinds of spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors.
I am not asking you to have a copy of the Chicago Manual of Style or Eats, Shoots, and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation on your desk, but most of the mistakes I've seen so far are noticeable to even the casual (un-english-major) eye.
Finally, you HAVE noticed the "modify" tab at the top of each post? That means you can go back and edit anything you write on here. So you have no excuse not to be grammatically correct. And writing grammatically isn't really that difficult... it's a matter of doing it repeatedly and practicing (and reading books, which tend to be edited correctly) and making it a habit. That said, the more you write incorrectly, the more you encourage yourself to write incorrectly, and make proper English writing seem like a chore. So really, you're doing it to yourself.

www.paperrater.comA link to website that will do a spelling and grammar check for free, it's also great if you have to write a paper cause it checks for plagiarism and explains why something is incorrect. It's free and you don't have to download it or anything, just copy and paste and it checks everything in a few seconds and helps you correct it. Also A panda bear walks into a bar and orders a sandwich. The waiter brings him the sandwich. The panda bear eats it, pulls out a pistol, kills the waiter, and gets up and starts to walk out. The bartender chaese after him and yells for him to stop. The panda bear asks, “What do you want?” The bartender replies, “First you come in here, order food, kill my waiter, then try to go without paying for your food.” The panda bear turns around and says, “Hey! I’m a Panda. Look it up!” The bartender goes into the back bar and looks up panda bear on his iphone, which says: Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

Name: Daniella Love Mortimer Nickname: Dani, Love, And sometimes she's called Fallen Age: 23 Character Type: Demon Occupation: Modern Love, owner Level of the City you Live at: Level 2, but really could careless of where she’s at. Appearance: Demon Form: History: Daniella Love or Dani Love was born Demon, yes, born. She was given a power or would it be curses to have your power revolve around Love? That’s what she was; she was just as crazy in the Underworld; which is what she called it. She was evil down there, she spent her years trying to figure out a lot between how to take over the world to killing a lot of species just for kicks. She was conjured up a witch that wanted a warlock to fall in love with her, so she showed up. She was very annoyed with this woman and she gave the witch what she wanted, she gave the warlock so much love that he could stand being without her when she would be working at her shop that he committed suicide. It really didn’t matter to Dani, in fact it brought her amusement that she started messing up the witches love life completely. The witch had the most outraged hatred for Dani and wanted to cast her away but no matter how much she tried, nothing ever worked. Now that Dani has taken over the Witches store and has learned to make herself appear (and smell) like a witch she is out to have fun. Extra: -She can be completely evil -she has good moments -Likes playing with peoples hearts -The classic Wild Child

Name: Cleopatra JonesAge: Appears 28Character Type: ElfOccupation: Shadow HunterLevel of the City you Live at: 3rd LayerAppearance: History: Cleopatra's history is very long, she is immortal, after all. But most of it isn't well known, since she doesn't like to talk about it. Her family wasn't extremely wealthy, the way that most Elf families are. But they were well off, which was why that she grew up on the third layer. She followed in her father's footsteps, becoming a successful attorney, and was a trained healer like her mother. This, now, would be what Cleo refers to as her 'first life'. When her family and friends were killed by demons, Cleo changed. She gave up being an attorney, and set out to chase down the demons that had killed her family, which is when she became a Shadow Hunter. Since then, Cleo has trained hard, and worked her way to becoming one of the more feared of the Shadow Hunters, killing any demon that crosses her path. When it comes to demons, there's no good ones, as far as Cleo is concerned. And for every demon she kills, another person is kept from being slaughtered by them. Or at least, that's Cleo's theory.Extra: Cleo has a pet vulture named Bones, who is always with her. And she's a very good fighter, with both weapons fighting and hand to hand combat. She never goes anywhere without her sword.Bones; Her Sword;

Psymon stood, barely managing to keep himself up right, swaying a bit from exhaustion of the fight. He stared into the eyes of his opponent, a psychic like himself, and he knew the man was worse off than he. One good hit is all it would take and then the fight would end. He felt his opponents mind lash out at his own and he attempted to block the attack. He felt part of the electricity, causing his skin to vibrate and his muscles to ache even more. At the same time he threw a left hook connecting with the other guy's jaw causing him to stumble back and Psymon used his telekinesis to snap the guys neck. Finally the fight was over, and Psy was paid for the win just before he left. Limping slightly on his way home. It was a far walk but he was used to it, the pain was just something else he dealt with. He had barely just left when he heard a scream from a nearby factory. The factory was abandoned but apparently not empty. He paused for a second, wondering if he should help, he knew he had to the voice sounded childlike. The door was locked so he grabbed a rock and smashed in one of the windows and cleared away the glass before hopping inside. He looked around, and spotted a huge ghastly demon. The thing had to have been at least seven and a half feet tall, it was so thin Psy could pretty much count the number of bones it had but of course he didn't have that sort of time. It's gray skin was covered in open sores that oozed a green fluid and its mouths, the thing had three, where lined with thin needle like teeth. A pair of slits occupied the spot were its nose should have been and the things yellow eyes were too small for it's already small head. Psy was unfamiliar with this sort of demon so he waited for it to move first.
------------------------------- Monty downed another cup of coffee, he'd left work half an hour ago, surprised at how quiet the city was tonight. Then he felt his phone vibrate and he pulled the paper-thin device from his jacket pocket and tapped a few buttons.
Work Text: Slime Demon, old HoverCycle factory, bottom level. Warnings: Teeth and Claws, toxic body fluids, paralyzing slime. USE CAUTION
He rolled his eyes and sighed, he hated slime demons but it had to be dealt with, the damn things multiplied like rabbits and smelled worse than roadkill. On the up side he'd gotten a new sword and this would be a great time to try it out. He threw some money on the table and headed to the bottoms.
---------------------------- Nick washed the engine grease from his hands and arms, he'd just finished fixing up the engine in a hover taxi. When he was done he wiped the water off with a clean towel and closed up his garage. His knuckles where still sore from a fight the night before. Nick hadn't planned on it but they his people, were bears and they were way out numbered by a pack of were wolves so he joined in. He almost regretted it, almost. He headed outside, it was late at night and pretty cold out but still a nice night. He didn't own his own hover car but his house was close enough to walk to if he wanted. He headed towards the direction his own home was but stopped near a bar. It was the type that catered to all sorts rather than just weres. He paused for a second then decided to go on in and try his best to stay away from anything that seemed like trouble. Nick grabbed a seat at the bar and asked for a beer.

Ambrosia covered a yawn as she sat down on the railing that ran along the roof of the 'abandoned' building that she called home. The building was located in one of the worst parts of The Bottoms, and not many people, human or otherwise, wandered into the neighborhood, which was perfect for Ambrosia who valued privacy. Ambrosia had picked a nice sized apartment on the top floor and spent the past few years redoing it to her liking.
She rolled her head from side to side, she finally had a few moments to herself, and she intended to enjoy every last second.
Of course, Ambrosia didn't get to enjoy it for long, before her phone started buzzing. With a few choice cuss words, she pulled it out of her pocket and checked the text.
Work Text: Slime Demon, old HoverCycle factory, bottom level. Warnings: Teeth and Claws, toxic body fluids, paralyzing slime. USE CAUTION
"Of course," she grumbled under her breath. "Like I don't know that it has teeth and claws," she mumbled sarcastically, shoving her phone back into her pocket. At least it was in the bottoms, so that meant that she wouldn't have far to travel. One of the perks of living there.
Ambrosia swung her legs over the side of the building, and jumped. She landed gracefully on her feet on the sidewalk below and began walking towards the old HoverCycle factory. The closer she got, her nose began twitching from the horrible smell. Even without the usual text from her work, she would have been able to find the creature by her nose alone.
As Ambrosia reached the building, she found a window already busted out. "Saves me some time," she said under her breath as she quickly slipped through the window and into the building. Following her nose, it didn't take her long to find the Slime Demon. It wasn't like it was exactly trying to hide, after all. Which also led her to finding another man standing there. At first, she thought it might be a fellow Shadow Hunter, but she didn't recognize him, and Ambrosia knew all of the Shadow Hunters.
"You're not a Shadow Hunter," she said, it came out more a statement then a question. "Why don't you run on home and let the professionals handle this, huh?" She said, some sarcasm hanging on her words. She knew the other Shadow Hunters would probably be arriving soon, and while she doubted that he'd actually take her advice, she thought it was worth a shot.
