This roleplay is mostly based off of The Children of Blood and Bone (I highly recommend it!) and This Savage Song. It’s set in a dystopian / Renaissance / Victorian era (if that actually makes any sense lmao.)
There are two main sections in the land, the North sector, and the South sector, where they are only separated based on the strange gifts that some seem to acquire through birth or witchcraft. Fearing for their lives, humans began to force those with powers (or supernatural looks) out of their towns or even placed them in stocks or markets. Some were even used as public threats in main squares to scare those in the cities. These 'gifts' began to be seen as terrible curses and eventually, the ones who had unearthly powers hid in the abandoned and crumbling areas of the South sector. It’s been decades since they’ve fled, though a few still remain in the towns in an attempt to finally bring magic back.
R U L E S :
-Nothing to OP, run it by me before you give it to your character.
-LGBTQ+ and shipping are more than okay.
-Your character can also be in the North Sector and doesn’t need to have powers.
-A maximum of 2 characters.
-No IRL hate, please!
-3+ sentences to keep this alive.
-If you have any questions or ideas, feel free to ask or share.
-Most importantly, have fun!

Name: Khari Adler
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Sexuality: Bisexual (Leans towards women though.)
Appearance: A mix of wavy and curly, dark brown hair that is cut bluntly below her shoulders. She usually ties it up in some sort of messy updo, though it’s usually left down since she rarely pays attention to it. Her skin is darker, more of a caramel tone. She has vitiligo on her hands and some on her forearms as well that she constantly attempts to hide with long sleeved sweaters. 5’6 with a smaller and leaner build. Amber toned eyes. A few scars across her back and arms from the traders and the stocks she was thrown in.
Personality: Khari tends to shift personalities on a daily basis, though when first met she can be a bit quieter. She’s kind and gentle and cares for the others around her, though she can also be sarcastic and feisty at times. Doesn’t let others tell her what to do. Covers up any insecurities with calm looks and smiles. She can sometimes lose her patience quickly at times.
Clothing: Wears dark jeans that are nicked in several areas and are held together with different threads. Constantly wears layers, with sweaters and large coats with hoods that are pulled up to cover her features up. The brightest part of her wardrobe is the piece of fabric that she uses to pull her hair back.
Backstory: Khari had been part of a large line of witches, the family gift being passed down to her. Though, as she began to practice her magic, those in the North sector placed her in slave markets when she was only eleven years old. (More on this later…)
Other: She always carries around a leather-bound book with all the notes that her ancestors had written before her time.
Power: A Healer and a Cancer. She has the ability to heal the majority of wounds and also place diseases and poisons with her touch. Close to Daus.
Name: Daus Teller (Pronounced Day-us)
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Looks: Curlier/wavy part white, part darker brown hair that is usually pulled back into a low, smaller ponytail. Choppily cut, shorter pieces hang around the side of his face. (This is the closest thing I can find to his appearance https://www.pinterest.com/pin/845269423788022150/ minus the horns) His hair slowly began to fade to a whitish color due to his powers. Around 5’11, with a faint tanned skin tone and closely spaced freckles on the bridge of his nose and cheeks. Leaner and lanky build. Darker amber/ auburn eyes. He has burn marks on his hands from the stocks that are usually wrapped in some sort of fabric to hide them.
Outfit: Usually in looser, dark jeans and is always wearing a warm jacket. Always in his beat-up boots that are rarely tied, the shoelaces fraying at the ends. Has a silver bracelet around his wrist that was given to him by his sister before she died.
Personality: Daus tends to be a bit quieter and observant when first met, and he can come off as hostile. He's more reserved, never speaking up too much. Charismatic and rebellius, never listening to others. He’s sarcastic and calmer, more of a laidback sense. He never takes great care of himself. Can lose his patience quickly and is very protective with the ones he cares about. Enjoys laughing and grinning.
Other: The North sector calls them Reapers and they have the ability to access and manipulate the spirits of the living and the dead. Very close to Khari.
