Bran, yep. I can put a few sparse Lads up there for you. They're older, and only there to make sure nothing gets on the roof, but your character can give them orders.

Not speaking from the perspective of the writer, but I always run non-human characters. Species that are on par with / not excessively more powerful than humans are fine, I believe.

Many of the characters are human or look human. You aren't restricted to a human, though. The key is to make it something that can blend in, personality wise. Dark, broody, introverted characters lend to bored players trying to find reasons to have them participate in things.

We have anthros, Ponies, Chaos Space Marines, weird aliens, creepy things, etc.

That might be due to overpopulation, or interference with existing canon.

We put a cap on characters that have participation in "spiritual" affairs, because we already have a really big, bloated canon about gods, heavens, death, religions, the universe, etc. We don't accept things that effect the nature of "the great beyond" as it were anymore, but we do continue to accept other supernaturals that don't have anything to do with spirituality, like, say, superheroes, centaurs, aliens, vampires, etc.

Yes. That has nothing to do with spirituality/religion, etc. It's just a creature in the world.

It should be fine. Keep in mind that you'll have to find a way to balance out points in the app.

Ok, so i am looking at how the supernatural whatnot works, would i have to put points in speed or whatever even though a WerePyre would naturally be faster or stronger than a human?

Cer determines if additional (freebie) points will be given. Make the app and he'll look it over. Sometimes it helps to write a very good bio that describes the reasoning behind the character's abilities.
