premise / game infowelcome to frontiers, new mexico - a fictional town set fifty short miles outside of roswell. after the roswell ufo incident of july, 1947, a vampire coven, under the leadership of vampire king larit marquett, came together to settle in frontiers, deeming it far enough away from the action, but close enough that anything seeming mysterious or somewhat odd could be explained away by the eccentric locals and extra terrestrial proponents. the vampire king maintained a friendly relationship with the alpha of the local pack near their old home and within a year or so, jareth danforth's pack migrated to frontiers as well. after jareth's death in 1995, his only son, jorey, became the new pack alpha. he has maintained order in his own pack as well as kept the peace with other neighboring packs. he has been instrumental in helping to eradicate the senselessly violent packs who are hell bent on bringing destruction and terror to human kind in not very subtle ways. the vampire coven and werewolf pack have lived in harmony since 1949. both larit and jorey are intent on keeping it that way. they often call upon each other for assistance in staving off both vampire and werewolf hunters. vampires, werewolves and humans (civilians and hunters alike) are all welcome in frontiers. if there start to be too many of any one race/kind, the mods reserve the right to cap them until things even out.
vampires* our vampires possess the ability to walk outside in the daylight, but doing so incredibly weakens them for a few hours. if they stay out in the sun for very long, it can really hurt them and can possibly take days to recover their full strength. vampires can feed from humans without killing them. when a vampire bites a human but does not kill or turn them, the vampire may choose to make said human their drudge (human slave.) they do this by taking more blood than a usual feeding but not enough to kill or turn them. the human won't be aware of this unless the vampire chooses to inform them but nevertheless, they have to do anything the vampire tells them to. even if they are unaware that they are a slave, they will be compelled to obey - from fetching a glass of water to killing someone. when a human becomes a drudge, the vampire must become their protector. many vampires employ their drudge(s) at their place of business or in their home. in order to turn a human into a vampire, the writer needs to get mod permission (just so we can keep track of everything and not have too many of the same lines happening all at once) and then the vampire needs to scene with the vampire king and ask his permission too unless they want to be in some serious trouble. humans are turned into vampires when the sire drains them and just as they are about to die, he forces them to drink some of his own blood. vampires can be male and female.
werewolves* our werewolves possess the ability to shift at will but it is a very painful process both ways and they need time to recover from the change when shifting to and shifting from their wolf form. they heal much more quickly than humans do and eat much more than humans do as well. if a werewolf doesn't eat for two days, it is akin to starving a human being for a week. the werewolf gene is linked to the male gene, therefore werewolves are mostly males. most are born. very few are made. once the child is born, generally the werewolf father takes the male child from the human mother and leaves for good. sometimes exceptions are made. if you want to have a woman involved in a werewolf line, just talk to a mod first. (again, only so we know what's going on! we aren't crazy overlords!) nine times out of ten, a werewolf bite leads to an agonizing death, not turning. if you want to have a human turned to a werewolf, please speak with a mod also. the same goes for bringing in female werewoles. these are definitely lines we can't have happening all the time.
humans* there are two types of humans. civilians who live in frontiers (or civilians who live in roswell and possibly work in frontiers) and then there are hunters. we are putting a cap on three hunters to start with because we can't have tons of hunters running around shanking the few vampires and werewolves. get your holds in soon if you want a hunter.

rules
- it's been said a million times but as in all games, it must be said again. no crossing of ic and ooc. if there is proof of it happening, we will handle it. enough said.
- this game will have supernatural and darker themes. if that's not your cup of tea, please don't apply.
- please make sure to discuss lines thoroughly with your story line partners before anyone gets hurt or changed in some way. if you want to bring in npc's to be killed or for your character to feed from, you are more than welcome.
- there are two communities. all ic posting (threading, texts, emails, voicemails, letters, etc.) goes in ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) frontiersic and all ooc posting (intros and other info) goes in frontiersooc. tf your character wants to post updates, song lyrics, random quotes or anything else, those will go in the character's journal.
- journal checks will happen every three weeks. aim logs, threads, or journal entries will all count for updates. we encourage you to post logs and threads in the ic community so that everyone is up to date on what is happening.
- your first entry can be three paragraphs or ten detailed facts. the choice is yours. if you don't leave it public, please friend the mod journal!
- after reading all the rules, please put 'one man wolf pack' as the subject of your app.
- journal names should incorporate any combination of your character's name. each character needs a journal. however, aim names are not required. if you have one, great. it can be an out of character screen name though that will serve as a contact for writing.
- there is no character limit at this time but please make sure that you know your own limits. if you are going to have multiple characters though, they cannot be all the same race.
