Age: 27
Race: Human
Appearance:
Image

Abilities: Magic User, master of spells and arcane magic, though due to previous run with the law in his youth his powers have been dampened
Personality: A bit brash, and headstrong. He has a bit of a rule breaker mentality, that has mellowed somewhat in his growing up in the past few years. But that doesn't mean he still don't see the rules as something that doesn't need to be challenge from time to time.
Bio: Conrad was born in Draken Falls and he had a lousy life because of it. His mother died in childbirth and he was raised by his neglectful father. And in his angsty teen years joined a gang, known as the Tarot, although he owes his life for giving him a better life, he knew eventually that they would cost him his. In 2014 he was caught during a museum heist gone bad, and was easily sentence to 5 years in the Vault and dampening of abilities though branding. After serving his time he managed to live a somewhat life on the straight and narrow as he helps run a bookstore in the east end of the city, called the Lost Library.

Might be interested in this one, altough I didn't do any rp on nationstates before (I am familiar with rp in general tho). Are there any specifics for dragons or is it OK so long as it isn't a completely invincible behemoth with nuke breath?

Referring to other rps I participate in? I've been on a few discord rps and have read some other rp posts on this forum. I might have difficulty always writing such long posts as on here especially since English Isnt my native language but with enough time between posts, as is usual on here from what I've seen, I can most likely do it. Regarding dragons, I was asking if there's anything specific about the abilities, size and other features of dragons or if I can define everything for my character so long as it is within reasonable power limits and doesn't contradict anything stated In the top post.

Ah well I encourage people to do their own thing. I mean I do have a canon of sorts but it very malleable

Name: Nero Thomas
Age: appears to be in his late 20s/early 30s, is actually 174 years old
Race: Demon
Appearance:
Image

Abilities: demonic possession, telepathy, ESP, pyromancy, very smooth talker & skilled negotiator, superhuman strength/endurance/pain tolerance, shapeshifting (human to demon form & vice versa)
Personality: Nero is sadistic, manipulative, vengeful, short-tempered, and generally someone you really don't want to be on the wrong side of when it comes to organized crime. He is, however, a loving father and cat owner.
Bio: Born Nathaniel Johnson to a middle-class family in Virginia in 1846, Nero sold his soul to the devil at 17 in exchange for surviving mortal wounds sustained during the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War in 1863. He eventually allowed himself to be turned into a demon after relinquishing his soul in 1933 and is currently engaged in various business ventures of dubious legal status in Draken Falls including nightclubs, strip clubs, escort agencies/prostitution, money laundering, loan sharking, protection rackets and gambling dens. He adopted his current human-passing form in 2014, which is his favorite so far as he considers this his most attractive body yet thanks to a little cosmetic shapeshifting.
Side notes: He's bisexual and drives a white Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Well hello there.

On the subject of Gods, do you follow the Rioridan School of thought, Whereas the Gods, such as Greco-Roman, Egyptian, ect have always been around due to Western Civilization rather than being worshiped, or the American Gods School of thought, where a concept like, say, the internet, cars, drugs, anything modern can be a "new God". Basically how screwed are the Gods?

This looks pretty interesting. Though, I'm wondering if hybrids would be allowed, or if you have to pick just one race? Because I have an idea for a character whose character would kind of revolve around him being a hybrid

Its more of a mix between the two. The old gods have existed since their inception, and still do.But some modern concepts have become gods not all but big ones like internet, money, technology have

This looks interesting...don’t know if I’ll have time to join seeing as I’m running my own RP but I will definitely be following.

Not sure if I'll be able to join this but I have an interesting character idea forming. Perhaps an angel who's a police officer or even the chief of police, since they probably have a rather 'lawful' nature. Might need some background as to why they're working for the police department and not exclusively (or perhaps not at all) as a holy messenger or whatever.

Your character could be a fun foil for my demon mobster. As for the background, being a cop would be an excellent cover to blend into the human world at large.

Tarnen, I retconned my app just to make the character more interesting, so if you feel the need to re-evaluate it/my involvement go right ahead.
