this will become your best friend on Carmelo since this will explain why the students act like they do. you need to know the information on this page in order for you to understand how your character should act amoungst their piers and on a general basis.
vampires are one of the most favorited species at the time, though they are immortal and kill most of the world's population. they have pale skin, that doesn't sparkle, and eyes of dark shades or reds. they must feed at least once a week or they will grow weak and are more prone to attacking innocent people. it's extremely hard for vampires to resist shown blood, but once you get to the top of classes, it becomes easier. to kill one, you must either rip off their heads or have one vampire be bitten by another. changing people into vampires is strictly forbidden on academy grounds. vampires are quick, which makes it easier to kill, and they are put on a vegetarian diet at the academy, but some students still go missing here and there.
demons aren't actually people come back from the dead, but more of children possessed by a demon. they tend to have multiple personalities, as in the demon is the exact opposite of the person. the afore mentioned is in fact one of the only ways to find one of these students. demons grow weak when around crosses, and at a young age it can rid them of the demon. as the person grows older, they can use the crosses to control their demon side. the demon also becomes part of their soul and if exposed to a great amount of spirit, will kill them. spirit mages and religious places are the only things that are known to be able to get rid of the demons, since both force the spirits out of the body, but otherwise, they are immortal.
everybody knows what a mutt is. to be considered a mutt, one must have at least three different species in them. if one is a mutt, you tend to be a bit of a spaz, not really falling into one category. if you are a demon/vampire/animal hybrid, then you'd probably have the ears and tail of the animal, blood thirst of the vampire, and mood swings of the demon. as a mutt, you have a little bit of all your mixes, but not all of the things for all of your mixes. let's be realistic here. if you as a real person is part Spanish, French, and American, you do not have all the looks of a Spanish person, French person, and American, do you? no. so put that in mind while making your mutt. they are not immortal, no matter their mixes and are killed like humans.
merpeople considered genderwise are mermaids and mermans. though people tend to think that only girls are merpeople, it is false. they do not have to stay in water, but in order to change, they must be touching water. mermaids have a very tall and sleak build, whilst mermans are well built and muscular. it is said that a merperson cannot swim unless changed, and it is a fact for some. they can breathe under water and swim as fast as a vampire runs. they need to water at least once a week, or risk dehydration. if you wish to kill a merperson, you must keep them away from water or suck the water out of them with magic, dehydrate them, or disable them in some way and drown them. the latter is harder than the afore. they are immortal.
animal hybrids are the most mysterious forms of humans to date. the most common are mixes of the cat, dog, and bird species. fallen angels fit in this category too. they are mortal, killed easily, but as they are mixed with animals, their senses are those of that animal. hybrids tend to only have the ears and tails of the creature, some with wings. mixed animal hybrids, bird-cat mix, are still in this section, not considered a mixed breed. few of this breed can shift into their animal, exception of wolf mixes since that would be a werewolf, but it is rather rare. dragon animal hybrids are forbidden, since they tend to be rather destructive and would probably eat the other mixes.
elves, elves, magical elves. though they tend to be some of the shorter population of the academy, these little bits are mighty. with their pointed ears and smaller size, they follow the path of nature and seem to have a strong point in this location. they can control the life of anything nature except for people, and use it to their advantage. they're not extremely short, but don't get over five feet tall at the biggest. they don't have squeaky voices or sing songs and rhyme, though they can if they want too. elves can control magic if they practice and sometimes are sorted into mages if they lived in a bad village before and their ears were burned down. the only known way to kill and elf is to withdrawl them from nature, since it is their life source. they're not immortal, and will die when they grow old otherwise.
faeries are normal sized people with butterfly wings. they come from Irish heritage, and the general faeries have bright green eyes which was said came from them being raised in the forest and the green pigmints dying their eyes. pixies on the otherhand are permanently a small size of four inches, or shift from that size to normal. they have floral tattoes on their back and shoulders, spreading sometimes to their faces in shades of blue, green, or pinks. both breeds have the afore mentioned tinges to their skin, which separates them from the other species. the only way to kill a one of them is to exposed them to iron. while it doesn't make much sense, it burns them and can eventually kill them if their around it too long.
it is unknown to us as people weather the werewolves shift during the full moon or as a result of being mad. the only thing we know is that they have to shift at least once a month, or they will be stuck in wolf form until the nurse fixes them with a serum. the wolf form looks like the human form. if the person is small and sleek, you'll have a small and sleek wolf, and visa-versa. it is said that the shifted are the only people allowed to run through the forest, since one of the major fears that lies inside are the werewolves that have been stuck in wolf form and can't get the serum. werewolves do not age and can be considered immortal. though most people think not, the way that is said to kill a werewolf is using fire, but there is no history on ever killing one.
as humans we eat, drink, sleep, exercise, and die. but, there are a few of us that are special, the few that are pronounced crazy to the rest of the world. these are the ones admitted, well, at least if they still have some stable point of mind. the humans who are admitted have strong beliefs that they have seen ghosts and/or talked to them, are being haunted by something, can read the future, and ect-ce-tera. there are others that can move things with their minds, or telekenesis, and several pairs of twins will be admitted for their telepethy. there are, of course, other's but it would take all night to cover them. humans are taught magic while they are at the academy, which is supposed to help them with their so-called 'insanity'. of course, it's easy to kill humans, and they typically stay all alone or in one big group.
mages are a lot like humans, minus the lack of stable mind. they major in the feilds of elements, the main ones being air, water, fire, and earth. there are also your basic magic spells, but most of these are based off an element that corresponds with the mage. few mages can control the element of spirit* since it is a rather powerful element. each mage can control a bit from each realm, but they tend to lean towards one or another, and don't use spirit often, for only a few can weild it properly. in this part, you have your necromancers, or dark mages, which basically weild the element of darkness and shadows. the powers are usually handed down from generations, but a few skip around and others come out of the blue.

a mix breed is a mix of two of species on this list into one specimen. say, a merperson married a vampire, you'd have a vampire merperson. unlike mutts, if a person is mixed with something of immortality, then they tend to be immortal, or age to a certain point before stabilizing. mix breeds are hard to describe, since they are a mix of two different people, so make sure to read this, plus to the two breeds your person is to be mixed with. mixing humans and something doesn't make them a mix, it makes them a half-breed. mixing humans and mages doesn't count, nor animal hybrids and werewolves. mixing faeries/elves/pixies together just makes them one or the other. all others are proper mix breeds. pm admin for questions.
this is an important color to watch for. this means that this person is in power and most likely knows what they're talking about. if you need any kind of help, find the profiles with these colors to ask questions.
this is one of the easiest on the list. ghosts are transparent spirits of the dead. these are the important things you need to know about ghosts... they cannot leave the grounds, aka the academy, for more than twenty-four hours, or they will be striped of their ghostliness. ghosts can touch solid objects, but it is said they cannot touch a living person. ghosts can be seen by the majority of the academy, but outside, only the gifted can. ghosts tend to make friends with the sad and lonely alive people since they tend to be sad and lonely. repairs are not made when death occurs, so the ghost looks like they did when they died. ghosts can change their outfits, but cannot morph into other things. they cannot be killed. they can walk through walls. any other questions, pm admin.
