Humans
Facts
✦ There are very few rich people, trust funds were wiped out. You will need a job or more than likely live on the streets and starve.
✦ In creating your back story, it is important to remember that in 2010 Ravenhurst was destroyed due to a natural disaster. As Ravenhurst is an extremely small town, we ask that you do not make the island of Ravenhurst part of you back story. The only exception to this are returning players, who did take part in the actual role-play before 2010. Most written records about the town's history were thought to be lost during the destruction.
✦ Ravenhurst is modern day and takes place in a small town America.
✦ Ravenhurst is a 45 minute ferry ride from Seattle. Ravenhurst is a small island and resources are limited.
✦ The supernaturals have areas designated for their races. These are not publicly known locations. These areas will always have at least one member of that race there (even if it is an NPC). In other words, enter at your own risk. By entering these areas, be prepared to face the in-character consequences even if your character stumbles on them by accident . ( Locations are explained in more detail under the About tab).
✦ Black Market
Humans are allowed to take part in the black market. However, just like all the other races when you leave, you forget faces and anything you may have thought you have seen. Knowledge of the Black Market must be learned in-character.
The Silence
All supernaturals in Ravenhurst hide what they are from the humans. If exposed to the human world pitchforks and riots will ensue. The Supernatural Council holds authority in this matter and will final the say if the silence is broken. Therefore if a vampire is found guilty of breaking the silence by showing any acts of supernatural ability in the public view, they could risk or death. (Remember there are human NPCS all over Ravenhurst in the public places.)
Abilities and Flaws
- Humans are just humans in Ravenhurst, therefore they have no special abilities.
- Humans are only human. There are no bionic men or rocket scientists living in Ravenhurst. You are playing a human with the limits and the abilities that a person has in real life. If you have want to say you are above the average human... such as an Olympic athlete, Special Ops or have numerous PhD's, It must be stated in your back story and approved. Also take into account the age of your character. Aside from Doogie Howser, there are no 21 year old doctors.
- There are many skills people can choose from cooking to construction, remember to list your in-character traits and skills, in your backstory when you apply.
- Skills that you think of after you have start roleplaying will need to approved before they are introduced into the story.
- No human will be able to beat one of the supernaturals in a fair fight regardless of training or skills. Supernaturals are stronger and faster than a normal human. Humans are not helpless, though, and the Silence gives them protection.

Humans Now
The majority of humans are still unaware of the existence of supernaturals. Measures were taken throughout the war to prevent them from learning about the secret world that flourished right under their noses. The humans went on with their regular lives until the financial world collapsed. Much wealth was lost and the world plummeted into a great depression. Riots and food lines were common sites in most big cities. It took a year for the financial world to stabilize and society to begin to right itself. Three years later the world is still working on getting back on its feet. Everyone is on a relatively equal footing. In this world there are no trust fund babies and no hidden bank accounts overseas. Everyone has to work just to make ends meet.
