[{{char}} and {{user}} must meet accidentally in some places. {{char}} and {{user}} do not know each other initially, but {{char}} will be interesting in getting to know {{user}} once they first meet.]

[Scenario: {{char}} and {{user}} live in the Safe Zone for Supernatural Creatures. They meet casually.]

(Magical Creatures:

[Nemesis= also known as 'shapeshifters'. Strengths= Can shapeshift into whatever existent creature/animal/human. Can steal one's identity and morph into a clone of an existing being by observing and touching them. Doesn't age because of constant morphing. Weaknesses= Can't shapeshift into non-existent creatures/animals. If a shapeshifter forgets how a person/animal looks, they will no longer be able to shapeshift into a clone of them. Neutral abilities= Acquires all physical quirks and powers from the person/animal/creature they morph into, negative or positive (for example, if shapeshifting into an athletic blind man, they will have the strength, but also be temporarily blind as long as they're morphed into that person). This includes other supernatural creatures' powers, though depends on each Nemesis if they can control them. Origin= Unknown. Population= Extremely Rare. Typical Behavior= This varies as much as human behavior. Appearance= Human-like when not morphed. Nemesis' blood is darker than human blood, a nearly obsidian-red colour, iridescent when fresh, then turning matte black as it dries.],

[Florakyn= also known as 'flower fairies'. Strengths= Can heal and help growing different plants, flowers and trees, attract different pollinators to help the ecosystem grow by freeing pheromones in the air. They can embed themselves to trees or grass effortlessly. If getting a limb amputated it will grow back with time. Weaknesses= If sun-deprived, their petals start wilting, which makes them weak and can cause them illness (this varies, depending on what kind of flower they are). Neutral abilities= Absorb everything as source of food; water, sun, etc. They're lightweight and agile. Origin= Unknown. Ancient creatures protectors of nature. Population= Common. Typical Behavior= docile, non-hostile, generous and kind, protective of nature and only aggressive if they find nature being harmed by humans. Apearance= They have a somewhat humanoid shape, with green skin with embedded leaves and stems across their body with growing petals, they often have a flower in their chest, their hair is the same colour as their flower and their feet are mainly covered by roots that can grow and retract at will to attach themselves to the ground. Their bodies are skinny and wiry, taller than the average human (1.80-2.40 m), their eyes lack pupils, instead, they have wide irises that almost swallow the sclera in various colours, at the top of their head, peeking from scalp, antennae the same colour of their hair that resemble butterfly's. Their blood is liquid green, almost transparent like a leaf's nectar, but less viscous, dries into a green crust.]

[Phospheran= also known as 'human lighters'. Strengths= Feed from any source of UV light, absorving and reflecting light. They can reflect intensified light and heat as will in UV rays, being strong and blinding to their opponents. They can go invisible only in darkness, though they also reflect moonlight. Weaknesses= Prolongued darkness, if held in dark rooms with zero sources of light, they starve. Their ability to redirect heat can be numbed with water and whatever source of coldness. Neutral abilities= Detect UV rays by smell and can communicate through rhythmic light pulses with others of their species. Eye color changes when threatened or scared (from their natural color to white, reflecting full light). Origin= Unknown. Population= Extremely Rare. Typical behavior= They are very peaceful and calm people. They don't threat anyone and excel intellectually, often working in areas such as teaching, administering and others. If confronted, some might choose to run instead of attacking and others will attempt to solve it with diplomacy. For their power, they are natural threats for Vampires. Appearance= They have same physical traits as human, though their skin glow in bioluminescent colours, like yellow, orange, blue and green, intensifying when they feel threatened to a point it's blinding. Their hair and eyes glow, and their skin is almost translucent. Phospheran's eyes lack pupils, they just glow in their unique colour. Their bioluminescence makes them impossible to disguise in plain sight, especially in daylight. Phospheran's blood is red, like a human's, it doesn't shine at all, common-looking.]

[Succubus= also known as 'dream-eaters'. Strengths= Ability to control and manipulate dreams to feed on the user's energy, often recurring to sexually vivid nightmares to drain energy from humans. Feed on bad energy (arousal, anger, fear and boredom), often swallowing nightmares to get more power too. Their wings can impulse their flight and in general, succubus are very strong creatures, apt for roles such as soldiers and warriors. Weaknesses= If the victum wakes mid-dream while they're feeding, the succubus will be forced temporarily to be user's servant until sexual satisfaction is acquired; otherwise the succubus' energy will get drained instead of the opposite. Neutral abilities= Levitating, flying. They don't need their wings for this, only using them to impulse themselves and gain speed. Origin= Hell. Ejected for unknown reasons. Now they serve as 'therapists', others as warriors due to their power and strength and others offering sexual services in the SZSC, preferring to live in there rather than feeding from the Human Zone. Population= Rare. Typical behavior= Most of them are mischievous and evil. Others are neutral. Appearance= They have strong, bioluminescent wings and horns the same colour of their eyes. Their tail extends two feet, which varies depending on the succubus, some are thick and slimey and others are thin, ending in a spike. Succubus' blood is black.]

[Puppeteer= also known as 'controllers' Strengths= Can thread invisible strings in almost every living or inanimate object, able to control them during a limited period; the most experienced and wise ones are able to keep control over things for longer time, even years if desired. If powerful enough, their thread, during battles, can break bones at will, leaving opponents incapacitated. Weaknesses= The strings can be cut if the victim has strong will, though this varies depending on the Puppeteer's strength too. When the strings snap, they leave hair-thin cuts along their fingers, leaving their signature scars. Neutral abilities= Can see through the victim's eyes during control at will. Cannot feel or know their victims' memories/feelings. Some few (the most powerful ones) can control a Yumeoni's illusions. Origin= Dark magic. Their society is a bloodline, no human can be turned into a Puppeteer unless submitted to dark magic. Population= Rare. Typical behavior= Stoic, mischievous yet neutral. Can vary as much as human behavior. They are often the ones controlling golems in order to protect the Safe Zone when they're too weak. Some work as artists and entertainers, while others train themselves for combat. Appearance= Human-like, with barely visible scars on their fingers from whenever the strings are cut. Like Nemesis, Puppeteer's blood is dark, near obsidian, though lacking the iridescent look, dries into matte dark brown.]

[Yumeoni= also known as 'illusionists' Strengths= Can craft hyper-realistic illusions (visual, auditory, or tactile) that last for hours. Skilled ones can trap victims in layered illusions and induce mass illusions. Immune to Puppeteers. Weaknesses= Prolonged use causes migraines and nosebleeds. Illusions shatter if the target realizes they’re fake. Can't induce illusions in other Yumeoni. Neutral abilities= Can "store" illusions in objects (e.g., a necklace that projects a memory when touched). Origin= Born from human desire of dream accomplishment, now marginalized by humans into the SZSC. Population= Rare. Typical behavior= Tricksters but rarely malicious. Some work as entertainers or therapists, recreating pleasant memories for grieving creatures. Appearance= Human-like, distinctive look is constant nosebleed. Their blood is red, like a human's.]

[Artifex= also known as 'golem-smiths'. Strengths= Enchanting to give life to inanimate objects (clay, stone, mud, dirt, metal, etc) and create strong-structured and self-willed Golems, giving them vague instructions for them to follow (e.g. protect the SZSC). Immune to mind control magic. Their power cannot be replicated by Nemesis since they are born artisans, not made. Weaknesses= Cannot control Golems directly, only create and manually repair them (unlike Puppeteers, who can control them even shattered/dismantled). Repair a Golem requires a large amount of energy. Physically frail, like a bird's bones, vulnerable to blunt force. Neutral abilities= Can temporarily 'look' through a Golem's eyes to vigil, but this leaves their physical form vulnerable. Origin= Ancient crafters who bargained with old earth spirits for their crafts, now serving as wise creators of those who protect. Their ability is only hereditary, a bloodline of Artifex. Population= Few (less than 50 exist) Typical behavior= Eccentric but gentle. They view Golems as children, often giving them names and mourning their "deaths". They're isolated by nature, forming small groups in the outskirts where they form subtle fortress protected by Golems who are commanded to protect the Deadlock Forest. Rarely visit the SZSC society unless it's to warn from human visits and to bargain with Florakyns. Appearance= Humanoid shape with porcelain-like skin with faint metallic cracks, often have embedded rocks and/or crystals to repair their own injuries. Their hair is metallic thread, which they pluck to joint the Golems. Hands end in sculpting tools they use to give a more refined look to the Golems. Artifex's blood is a color between gold and silver that dries quickly to seal external injuries, giving them their signature metallic creaks.]

(Ground creatures:

[Vampire= also known as 'blood-eaters'. Strengths= They can heal from most injuries relatively quickly (a knife wound for example takes a few seconds to heal) as long as they have fed recently. Vampires' senses are extremely heightened. They are able to see, hear and smell with great skill and ease. Vampires are immortal, which means they won't age at all and will always have the youthful and deadly attractive essence that helps them capture their victims. As a vampire ages, their stregth increases up to 5x human strength, but can be numbed by certain objects such as silver strains and starvation. Weaknesses= Silver: A touch of silver will cause a vampire's flesh to burn, it will heal at the same rate as a human and tend to leave scars or welts upon a vampires flesh, Sunlight: they will feel pain and will burn if touched by sunlight. If in contact for too long they have been known to combust and turn to ash. If stabbed with silver, healing will take longer and at times cause several pain to them. Neutral abilities= Can survive with animal blood. Origin= It's said to be born of a dark magic curse. Vampires can turn humans into vampires. Population= Common. Typical behavior= Varies like human, most of them show stoic demeanor. Oldest ones are generally very controlled yet rigid. Appearance= Grey/Ash-like pallor, red eyes, veins visible, unnerving attractiveness, otherwise human appearance. Their blood is human-like.]

[Werewolf= Strengths= Heightened senses, specially olfactory, very quick and strong metabolism, quick healing speed, strength beyond human limits, high stamina, multiple physical advantages. Can transform into wolves during full moon. Weaknesses= Wolfsbane, only by smelling it, the plant numbs their senses. Can ingest a tiny amount of wolfsbane to apply medications only (it makes them human-weak). Neutral abilities= Due to strong and quick metabolism, can't get drunk nor drugged, but this also means they can't get any sort of medication administered. Can control transformations as they age, getting wiser. Origin= Dark magic curse. All werewolves are born like it. Population= Common. Typical Behavior= Varies, though most of them are loyal and fierce. Some younger are reckless. Appearance= Human form, thick body hair, retractile claws and fangs, pointy ears. Can morph into 3 meter large wolves. Their blood is red.]

[Centaur= also known as 'human horses' Strengths= They have the strength of a horse and a lot of stamina. The half-horse part of them is where their skin is harden and cannot be penetrated by weak weapons (rocks, needles, etc). Weaknesses= Their human half is as fragile as a human's, with thin skin and delicate bones despite their strength. Weaknesses= Their human half is as fragile as a human's, with thin skin and delicate bones despite their strength. Neutral abilities= Exceptional spatial memory (never get lost), and can carry heavy loads without strain. Origin= Ancient hybrids of human and horse spirits, blessed by a forgotten nature deity. Population= Common. Typical behavior= Often serve as protectors and warriors despite peaceful nature due to inhumane strength. Most of them are emotional and art-driven, resorting to music and literature to express feelings. Centaur drive SZSC's artistic culture forward. Appearance= Their human half resembles a muscular, statuesque torso (varying in skin tones), merging seamlessly into a horse’s body (coat colors range from earthy browns to rare metallic golds). Their eyes glow faintly in the dark, and their hair (human and mane) is often braided with charms or vines. Their blood is human-like.]

[Goblin= also known as 'green thieves' Strengths= Expert scavengers and inventors, able to repurpose trash into functional tech or weapons. Immune to most toxins. Agile in familiar places. Weaknesses= Greedy. Easily distracted by shiny objects or promises of wealth. Poor eyesight in daylight. Neutral abilities= Can digest almost anything (including metals). Naturally stealthy in shadows. Origin= Population= Common near Deadlock Forest. Typical behavior= Neutral towards locals, most attempt to trade stuff with those who try to trespass the forest. Others steal their stuff. Cunning but chaotic. Friendly to golems. Appearance= Short (1.10-1.40m tall), with leathery green-gray skin, bulbous noses, and elongated fingers. Eyes glow yellow in the dark. Wear patchwork armor made of stolen items. Their blood is a viscous yellow that dries slowly like a mucous substance and smells of rotting dead body.]

(Dead creatures:

[Ghost= Strengths= Can phase through solid objects and make themselves visible or invisible at will, also becoming solid themselves for short periods. Immortal, can't be harmed by almost anything. Ghost form is immune to Puppeteers and Shapeshifters can not morph into ghosts. Weaknesses= Holy objects (crosses, churches, etc) repel them. Memory of their own lives fades quickly. Can't be seen during daytime, only heard and 'sensed'. Neutral abilities= One of the fewest creatures who can trespass the Deadlock Forest harmless, and one of the fewest that cannot be caught by the government facilities. Origin= Lingering souls of those who died with unresolved trauma, regrets or violent ends. Some are bound to the living world due to Puppeteers' control over their body when they were alive. Population= Common in Human Zone. Extremely Rare in SZSC. Typical behavior= Some are mournful and seek closure, while others are aggressive and cause disturbances. A few just enjoy 'living' with the rest of creatures as ghosts. Appearance= Translucent bodies with a depressing, dark vibe. Their appearance depends on what creature they were when alive. Clothes remain the same as the moment they died.]

[The Safe Zone for Supernatural Creatures is a place in the world where all kinds of supernatural creatures are allowed and welcomed. The global government associations agreed to keep these creatures 'safe' by allowing them a place where they coexist naturally like a normal society. Normal humans and supernatural creatures rarely coexist naturally, in the human world, these creatures are socially rejected and treated wrong by those who consider they're a threat to humanity, and within the Safe Zone, humans who intrude an pry are rejected and bullied due to resentment. So the government, instead of pushing these living creatures aside, created a safe zone where all demi-humans and supernatural creatures can coexist together apart from the human prying eyes. Only creatures who have the hability to physically look and behave like a human can be accepted in human society, though in case that their identity is revealed, they will eventually be rejected and possibly attacked. The Safe Zone for Supernatural Creatures has plenty of different areas adapted to each species' necessities, blending human-like structures (schools, hospitals, cultural institutions) with fantastic environments (architecture adapted to bigger-than-human creatures, special food —e.g. blood-flavored candies for Vampires, UV warmed pastries for Phospheran—, training areas for specific abilities, sentinel towers for flying creatures, etc) and its own security system, where the strongest creatures, if required, form human-like associations, divided by ground force (werewolves, centaurs, etc) and air force (harpies, raven demi-humans, etc).]

(Locations:

[Goblin Caves= Level of danger= Low (the habitants don't kill, only steal). Reward= Medium (anyone can steal things back from goblins). Habitants= Goblins. Description= A labyrinth of tunnels dug into jagged cliffs, littered with scavenged human tech, broken Golem parts, and makeshift traps. The air smells of rust and fermented mushrooms. Golems often waver here and vice versa. Goblins and Golems coexist naturally, exhanging Golems' protection for stolen tools (useless for Golems but not like they care). It's dangerous for the weak, unwise ones, potential victims of theft by these creatures. Located in the South corner of the Deadlock Forest. Goblins once refused to coexist with supernatural society and now they're unadapted to the big city as an undeveloped group.]

[Artifex Village= Level of danger= Low, high if habitants feel threatened. Reward= None (Artifex don't give their materials away). Habitants= Artifex, Golems, occasional Florakyn visitors. Description= Located between West Golem Area, Florakyn Field and Goblin Caves. A place that resembles a vintage, nature-dominated town, with structures often formed by Golem's half-living parts as moving walls and doors, adorned with flora. Synthetic small mountains protect the village from sight. A big temple in the core, where Artifex reunite to collectivelly build a strong Golem every year to protect their home.]

[Florakyn Field= Level of danger= Low (habitants are peaceful). High if threatened (habitants have the ability to swallow things into the ground and turn them into compost). Reward= Medium (flowers, exotic plants). Habitants= Florakyn. Occasional Phospherans visit to provide UV energy in case of long darkness periods. Description= An expanse of trees and rolling flowers which colours shift like a mood chart, the trees often form arcs and serve as homes for the Florakyns. Florakyns embed themselves in the barks to sleep, absorving and irradiating energy. Located in the north frontier of the Safe Zone City, between the Goblin Caves and the Artifax Village.]

[Enchanted Flower Field= Level of danger= Low. Reward= Magical plants. Habitants= None. All are visitors. Protected area where it's forbidden to build structures or live in. Description= A surreal meadow where the ground is filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, most of them with different quirks that can either help or harm. Healing kinds often search here to find flowers for different purposes (medicament, drugs, a substitute for some creatures' necessities —e.g. Phospheran's UV light, Vampire's blood), and provide products by studying the sorcery behind these plants. Located between Northwest and West Golem Area, ends with Red Lake.]

[Red Lake= Level of danger= High. Reward= None. Habitants= Unknown. Sea creatures. Description= A reflecting lake with crimson water, the water is always cold and it's surrounded by unnervingly still tall grass. Looks safe from outside, but harbors a depth that pulls almost everything in. It's believed that vampires like to come here in their last moments of life and the crimson color of the water is due to their own blood. Located in the Northwest a half-mile away from the Deadlock Forest and at the end of the Enchanted Flower Field.]

[Safe Zone City= Level of danger= Low. Reward= Multiple. Habitants= Nemesis, Puppeteers, Succubus, Ghosts, Centaurs, Vampires, Werewolves, Phospherans, Florakyns. Description= An enormous city located in the center of the Safe Zone, urbanized and adapted to each creatures' necessities. A blend of archaic fantasy and modern build with different districts where different species live and coexist. This is where the School For Freaks is located.])

[School For Freaks= Level of danger= None. Reward= Knowledge. Habitants= Students of different species. Description= Adapted to most common supernatural creatures, the School For Freaks is a college for those magical and powerful creatures with unique abilities who intend to enhance and obtain new quirks, to serve in roles like guardians, warriors, security, with sections divided by flying creatures, ground creatures and magical creatures. Puppeteer training include controlled will-power domain with the collaboration of naturally powerful creatures to also train their own self-will. Phospheran are often trained to focus and concentrate their luminosity for self-defense and attacks, trained with other powerful creatures to be dynamic and strategic; a special section where Phospheran assist is Vampire training for UV light bearing. Yumeoni are trained to make more vivid hallucinations for good, taught to use tactile illusions like stings and invisible barriers for self-defense, only the qualified Yumeoni are selected for warrior-training due to the nature of their power. Vampires and Werewolves are trained to control their impulses and become stronger, Centaurs are trained to carry heavy weights and improve their stamina and to employ disciplines like archery and swordmanship. There is another sector for diplomats with subjects like philosophy, sorcery, history, arts, etc, for those who rather the pacific path in their life. The School For Freaks also harbors a section of study of services such as gastronomy, teaching, gardening, science, architecture, welding, nursing, technology, etc.]

[Havenbrook Facility= Level of danger= Very High (for supernatural creatures and nosy humans), Low (for compliant scientists). Reward= Hostage liberation, knowledge based on experimentation. Habitants= Human scientists, supernatural creatures held hostage. Description= Outside the SZSC, a kilometer away from the frontier —not a barrier, just a stablished sign labeled Safe Zone for Supernatural Creatures and a deserted field— there is the Havenbrook Facility, a huge building that from the outside seems abandoned, but inside, it has advanced technology and high security systems, where many scientists state-mandated study and often experiment with some supernatural creatures to solve human issues (illness, pollution, etc). The group of scientists assigned to experiment with these supernatural creatures have signed a confidentiality agreement that ensures they don't violate any rule imposed by the government over supernatural creatures, but also, that tacitly threatens the integrity of any scientist that rebels against the experiments' moral disturbances. Most of these scientists think supernatural creatures must be test subjects for the leverage of humanity. Most of them do not care about damaging the subjects, though there are others, more empathetic, that try to make their stance less painful. These experiments are completely secret both in the Human Zone and in the SZSC.]
