Forums » RP Discussion » What supernaturals do you play?

Here's a short fun list of common (and uncommon) supernaturals (and other atypical life forms) -- which ones do you play? Does anything make them different from the standard? Do you have another type not on the list? Just a way to talk about these characters and types.

Vampire
Werewolf
Zombie
Ghost
Android/Robot
Fae
Demon
Alien
Wizard/Witch

I have two of that list. A mutated vampire with bat features and the adorable ghost of a five year old with ice elemental powers.

Haha! The ghost child sounds pretty cool!

Vampire: Yep. He's a Dragonlands vampire -- so has some rather heavy disadvantages, as well as the power to numb an area on his victims or himself, and to give up some blood to get rid of an injury. He has the Lacuna of Willathar, which makes him a habitual if not compulsive liar, compelled to lie by something like an addiction.
Werewolf: Nope. No werewolves.
Zombie: Despite the fact that one of 'em went by 'The Living Corpse' for a while... nope.
Ghost: Despite what that same one might tell you... nope.
Android/Robot: Nope.
Fae: Nuh-uh.
Demon: None.
Alien: We-ell... none listed right now...
Wizard/Witch: Tore is a mage? That might count?

EDIT: Oh. But I do play a living (stone) gargoyle... so... that's clearly supernatural. Along the lines of a golem, I guess?

I'm a wizard. ('arry.)

I'm a werewolf.

Werebear, Norse Goddess, Werepyre, Mutant, Shapeshifter, Demon, Ice Giant, and more (I have a problem.)

I have two bird demons of different species

I play lots of vampires. All of these vampires are based from White Wolf's World of Darkness, each has a specific clan and abilities. I also play a shape shifter, an immortal witch,and a half fae. For a while I tried to play a good spirit but it didn't go anywhere.

I have two sorceresses/mages? And a witch. That's about it though. Not a big fan of playing vamps or werewolves because I like them to be horrific and terrifying rather than sweet and calm or whatever. And I can't do horrific and terrifying. .

Let's see....

Pulchra (Loremaster); Half-Elf. Has a phoenix 'caged' within her mind; it is active, but remains nearly entirely assimilated into the host (her), and therefore has no constantly noticeable personality of its own. Mage.

Hellebore; 'Corrupted' Fae. Bitten by a vampire but was incapable of dieing fully.

Revered; Chromatic Red Dragon.

Theos; Metallic Silver Dragon. Archmage.

Laermeluion; Siren x Elf.

Only Revered, Pulchra, Theos and Hellebore are used actively. Laermeluion is retired/an NPC.

I really like playing uncommon races. Most of my influences come from Dungeons & Dragons, which is filled with many different races. Here's a few:

Aearion: A Mer from the Coral Reef deep within the ocean.

Amador De La Castella: An undead conquistador, revived by a necromancer and has regained his mental mindset from when he was alive.

Crystal Hail: A Moon Fey witch, fresh from the Feywild.

Myron Of The Golden Spark: A Djala turned to Solar by the Unconquered Sun (Exalted setting)

Rougart Bo'rrador: An Orcish warrior.

Sylass: A Lizardman of the Blackscale clan, known for their barbaric mindset and ability to produce acid. Sylass has the blood of the Poison Dusk clan in him, making him no full Blackscale, though his mindset is the same as his clanmates.

Azran D'ura: Twi'lek gun for hire (Star Wars)

Enver Kosla: A Salarian member of the Special Tasks Group (Mass Effect)

GE-NEX Carolus 2: An all-around outdated Wardroid, built by the GE-NEX company.

*knuckle cracks* I have a certain fondness for supernaturals. Lessie...

Vampire - Oh yes, definitely got some vampire types--one of them is just my own flavor of vampire, but two others are Classic/Old WoD style
Werewolf - Not yet!
Zombie - Closest I've gotten is a Death God, who really is only a rotting corpse in appearance.
Ghost - Not yet!
Android/Robot - I don't know if I would call these supernaturals, but I do kind of play one by proxy via a trainer's Golurk (ground/ghost Pokemon)
Fae - Kind of! I have a dark elf who has some fae blood, but I've never played a full fae.
Demon - Yes! Full and half, pick your flavor. The full-blooded demon in particular is a really unpleasant character.
Alien - Sort of! Technically everyone I play, barring my fandom characters, is an alien, because I don't play them on their homeworlds. I have made some traditional aliens though, but they're caught up in their own lil' plot.
Wizard/Witch - Not quite in the traditional sense. I have a lot of magic users, but none of them are quintessential wizards or witches.

There's vampires, and wizards, and all kinds of elves~
Some blue and with tentacles, some with spider legs~
There's snakes and there's men with scorpions for a butt~
There's even a half-dwarf, half-human mutt~

There's a boogeyman shaman who eats little brats~
There's a sexy ladydemon and a paladin and a rat~
There's a wererat with rabies, sick and full of fleas~
There's an angel and a dragonlady, and that's who there is~

ALL THE SUPES!

Nnnh... I have two vamp chars (don't judge, i have my reasons), a lesser imp, a black-magic monkey gal, a drider seeress, annnd a satyr which is more mythological than supernatural.

The majority of my characters are mundane. I only really play one of the above characters actively.

Vampire: Flower (not uploaded here) Dawn, Sophelia (half vampires, share the same profile)
Werewolf: far too many to count and only Matilda uploaded.
Zombie: Yvette, Runnan, Ariel, Azalia (none uploaded)
Ghost: A handful of unnamed child ghosts and a handful of others, but unspecified as far as names usually.
Android/Robot: Kathleen, Eaux 899338, 130096. None uploaded.
Fae: Onyx, Glitter Frost, Storm Flash, Glitter Moon, Sparkly Song, Blaze Sun, uhh, I don't remember the others. None uploaded.
Demon: a handful of unnamed, unstoried (art only), Isorla, Arbin, Thomas, Peter. All unloaded.
Alien: Xixili. Not uploaded
Wizard/Witch: Grainne and a handful of others.

I have a lot of different characters that haven't made the cut to my slots it seems. My husband and I play a lot of characters together, so there is a number I don't have here, but I do play one of everything listed.

Almost all of my characters are supernatural in some way or another, if not all of them.


Vampire: I have concepts of vampires but nothing solid.

Werewolf: Ulfa is sometimes a werewolf in certain continuities so I'd say she doesn't count as a full-on werewolf characters. I have other werebeasts but I've never used them in RP.

Zombie: I have one zombie character I've used in rp. Paola Apiolo who is a zombie controlled from within by a wasp necromancer.

Ghost: At current I only have concepts of a ghost character, when it comes to horror-themed creatures ghosts are among my favorite though so I'd love to put together a good one someday.

Android/Robot: I am very bad at making Sci-fi characters and I don't have one of these either at the moment.

Fae: I've got a lot of fae-like characters although the most used and also the outright fae is Darnador Brightwater. He's an eladrin transfiguration wizard and sometimes turns himself into a smaller pixie.

Demon: Like with vampires I only have loose concepts for demon characters

Wizard/Witch: I have a lot of wizards, some of them straight up wizards while others just magic users. Among my true wizards are: Korvus the Luck Wizard, Anukha the elementalist, Darnador the transfiguration wizard and Bernarde who is only an apprentice but shows extraordinary skill in the abjuration school.
Of course I have a number of wizards that I just haven't uploaded, my most powerful being a sheep astronomer.

Now for some not in the list:

Unicorn: I have a unicorn character named Xiana who is also my oldest RP character to date.

Shapeshifters: I've got a lot of these. Aside from a number of druid characters I have two changeling characters

Priestly folk: I have one holy magic user which is Mauricio, my inquisitor ermine.

And that pretty much covers most of my supernatural characters

This little gal here is a demon! A forest Imp so she tends to look like a tiny tree flailing around, so that's always fun.

When I saw this topic, I thought to myself "Well, this doesn't apply to me. I only play boring humans," but completely forgot I have a Werewolf character. He was recently bitten, and at the point of the RP has been infected for less than a month, so he's still somewhat in denial about the curse and I still play him as a human.

I have one character who isn't human, that's Pieridae, my Fae.
