First there were Mortals, Demons, and Angels, the three races lived in peace alone in their own realm. It wasn't until the Gods had seen what the Humans have been fighting against themselves, along with Demons and Angels at war with each other. This upset the Gods forcing them to punishes all three realms at once. Their punishment to leave with each other. The Heavens fell from its place high above the earth and the Abyss rose from the depths. When the dust settled on earth the Gods realized that it had been a mistake. The dust gave birth to new creatures nearly wiping the mortal kind out completely. Yet the war between Heaven and Hell, Good and bad cease to existent at the time. Gabriel, Michael, Raphael on the Maker's half was sent to the world to try to fix the mess. Just as the Heaven's forces cleared a path so did Hell's; lead by Lucifer, Lilith, and Samamael. Until one day the six vanished into nothing.
As time pasted the story of the first great war passed into legends, legends were made into to Myths as time when on. Shrines were place to pray to the six as if they were Gods or the New World. One family bonded together despite what they had become,becoming the Royal family, each of them taking a different race now. They claimed the new world for the Forsaken, the Humans didn't like this and mounted and attack to reclaim the world from these so called beasts. The Mortal kind had nearly wiped the family out before the treaty was made. With the last breath of the Kings giving his eldest daughter's hand to the demons for the sake of the rest of the world to end the fighting. Forsaken_Kingdom is a fantasy role-playing cult based in a modern time.; primary for the more semi-mature members of VampireFreaks that role-play to come together and have fun. The time era of the fantasy world is a mix between a Victorian era and today. Even though the time is more modern their are very few cars within the kingdom, and cell phones are common along with computers.
Forsaken_Kingdom's history:
Made by the Gods and Goddess of the past they soon grew ashamed of the mortals, demons and angels and how they had been living with each other they punished the races by combining their realms. After doing so the Gods soon grew bored with the Kingdom and left it to grow on its own. With the lack of influence the new races fell into the Great War which ended with the Emperor on his death bed giving his remaining oldest daughter away to the demons for a treaty.
Now a year after the wedding the Empress has left her husband and rumors of war is in the air once more.

Race Summery
Mortals
Human:
Elves:
Angels:[VIP RACE]
Angels are the holy beings found in heaven. They have many ranks amongst themselves and are ruled by The Light. Angels have no act of will, so they do not follow their desires and are completely pure beings. You cannot be made into an angel, and you need 1,300 posts to even be an angel as they are old beings. Names usually have to be from the Greek list, but Hebrew and Christian names are accepted as well.
Fallen angels:
Fallen Angels are angels who have taken leave from heaven, either by force or willingly, to live among the humans. They have wings that range from white, to gray, to black, depending on the level of the Sin they committed to get kicked out. Stronger and faster than humans, they don't age, and are only slightly harder to kill.
Demons:[VIP RACE]
Demons are what they are, dark evil creatures. They play host to one of the seven deadly sins, which can be either a whisper in the mind, or personality. They are telekinetic, or they are able to move objects with their mind. If a Demon is in their demonic form or out they have the power to levitate. Demons main abilities are to enter one’s mind or body, and they can also control and summon animals. Vampyres
Bitten:
Bitten vampyres are just that, vampyres that were once human but were "bitten" and turned. They are allergic to holy water, silver, and the sun. They need human blood to survive. If you enjoy the taste of ash in your mouth, then go ahead and try to eat human food. They're generally faster, stronger, and harder to kill than humans. They have better senses, and don't age.
Lamia:[VIP RACE]
Lamia are vampires that are born vampires. They are still allergic holy water and silver, and need to feed on blood as well as human food. They can only be injured by wood, and can only be completely killed by removing the head and heart from the body, burning all three in separate fires, and dumping the ashes in a separate body of running water. They're generally faster and stronger than humans They have better senses, and once they stop their aging (at whatever age they choose) they don't age anymore until they want to (if they age again, they'll look whatever age they really are). Lamia also hold the vampire virus and can change humans. Magiks
Mages:
A mage is a spell caster that specializes in burst damage and area of effect spells. Their primary role in a group is damage dealing and crowd control, making them good guards for royals or castles, through the use of spells. Mages can learn both attacks and healing abilities, making them something near a mixture of a white and a black witch, though some mages choose to focus their powers into one of the two magical forms. Mages are the most common of arcanists, or magical users, mainly because they normally are formally trained where as other magical types don't necessarily have to be. These are being who specialize in magic that creates and changes things, with the purpose of damaging their enemies and boosting the power of their allies.
Wizards:
A wizard is the male form of a witch, though they are quite different at the same time. Wizards are not split into two soul types like Witches are and tend to use different types of abilities. At the same time they share lore and also share a few abilities though this is minimal. Instead of pulling power from within themselves Wizards must pull energy from surrounding electrical waves. These can be taken from other magical being or from certain conductible items.
White witch:
Throughout the early modern period, the English term "witch" was not exclusively negative in meaning, and could also indicate cunning folk. "There were a number of interchangeable terms for these practitioners, 'white', 'good', or 'unbinding' witches, blessers, however 'cunning-man' and 'wise-man' were the most frequent" The contemporary Reginald Scott noted, "At this day it is indifferent to say in the English tongue, 'she is a witch' or 'she is a wise woman'". Many French devins-guerisseurs ("diviner-healers") were accused of witchcraft, and over one half the accused witches in Hungary seem to have been healers. Some of the healers and diviners historically accused of witchcraft have considered themselves mediators between the mundane and spiritual worlds, roughly equivalent to shamans. Repeated themes include participation in processions of the dead or large feasts, often presided over by a female divinity who teaches magic and gives prophecies; and participation in battles against evil spirits, "vampires", or "witches" to win fertility and prosperity for the community. White witches are known to heal rather than harm and are usually called upon to bless a woman who wishes to become fertile. Often they will be the midwives to pregnant women and can even be called to other Kingdoms to help royals.
Black witch:
Folk magicians throughout Europe were often viewed ambivalently by communities, and were considered as capable of harming as of healing, which could lead to their being accused as "witches" in the negative sense. Many English "witches" convicted of consorting with demons seem to have been cunning folk whose fairy familiars had been demonised. Such people described their contacts with fairies, spirits often involving out-of-body experiences and traveling through the realms of an "other-world". Beliefs of this nature are implied in the folklore of much of Europe, and were explicitly described by accused witches in central and southern Europe. Black witches are known to harm people. They specialize in potion making, mainly in the forms of poisons or enchantments, and are known to trick people into their powers. These type of witches are often seen casting spells over cauldrons but they don't necessarily need to. Some can use the cauldrons to view other areas. Despite this they often can be seen either consuming potions or using special spells to keep them looking younger with age. A witch must work with their powers in order to use them. It takes decades to master their abilities.
Sorcerer/Sorceress:[VIP RACE]
Ignorant people don't understand that magic was once the most honorable art and science of all, reserved for royalty, philosophers, priests, magi and the smartest and wisest men, and women, whom walked the planet at the time. A Sorcerer/ess' abilities are not a cheep trick or a joke. They are far more powerful than witches and wizards but this also comes at a disadvantage. Sorcerer/ess' train diligently and most fail for 3/4 of their lives. They will kick, scream, feel such pain and suffering that the only cure is to change their minds completely. So that's what they do. A sorcerer/ess is not so from birth. They have the ability to unlock their minds, to rearrange their thought processes to see the truth of the world around, and beyond them. They are part of the world that is truly possible. Depending on the soul, and the inward intent, a sorcerer/ess will change their appearance. A dark, evil, or black sorcerer/ess' skin will change to a gray-ish purple. A light, good, or white sorcerer/ess's flesh will turn into a sunkissed tan. During the life of the sorcerer they will have any skin or flesh colour normal to humans but as the ages go on and they gain more power their skin will change. Only sorcerer/ess' who has changed skin tones are full powered beings. This means that all others must continue their works and training and until their skin begins to change have the same power as a witch or wizard. It takes a sorcerer decades longer than a witch or wizard to become this powerful. If a sorcerer/ess can not last that long, or they are weak willed, once their flesh begins to change it's colours they will be absorbed by their own magic and disappear completely. It will be as if they never existed in the first place.
Shaman:[STAFF RACE]
Shamanism is an anthropological term for a range of beliefs and practices relating to communication with the spiritual world. Eliade (1972) states: "A first definition of this complex phenomenon, and perhaps the least hazardous, will be: shamanism = technique of ecstasy" Shamanism encompasses the belief that shamans are intermediaries or messengers between the reality world and the spirit worlds. Shamans are said to treat ailments/illness by mending the soul. Alleviating traumas affecting the soul/spirit restores the physical body of the individual to balance and wholeness. The shaman also enters supernatural realms or dimensions to obtain solutions to problems afflicting the community. Shamans may visit other worlds/dimensions to bring guidance to misguided souls and to ameliorate illnesses of the human soul caused by foreign elements. The shaman operates primarily within the spiritual world, which in turn affects the human world. The restoration of balance results in the elimination of the ailment. In areas where indigenous shamanism still thrives, there is a clear divide between "lay" people (who participate in and practice shamanic belief and tradition) and the professionals or specialists themselves. A lay practitioner of shamanism is not awarded any special title, as this is the norm within traditional societies. A shamanic professional, who is a highly-trained and very often spiritually selected individual, is sometimes known as a shaman.
Shapeshifters
Skinwalkers:
Skinwalkers are shapeshifters that only can change into a small animal such as a house cat, dog, or birds. Whether they are born with the ability or infected it doesn't make a difference. They age very slowly, feed on human food or whatever their animal form needs to eat. They are slightly faster then human and as strong as them. They fully turn into their animal; NOT some half beast half man hybrid.
Animal Demons:
Animal Demons are shapeshifters that change into larger feline or Canine type animals. They are normally born with this ability though there are some cases where they have been infected with it. They age very slowly, and feed on human food along with red meat while in their animal form. They are quite faster and stronger then humans. Animal Demons fully turn into the animal; NOT some half man half beast hybrid.
Dragons:[STAFF RACE]
These noble beasts of Ancient beings, have the ability to choose between their human form and their dragon form. They feed off mortal food along with red meat in dragon form. Dragon's have minor abilities while in their human from; such as greater strength and regeneration.
Lycans:
Lycans are people who can turn into a wolf. Whether they were born with the ability, or infected, it doesn't make much difference. They age slowly. They feed on human food and raw meat. They're faster and stronger than humans. They turn into wolves, just like you'd see in the wild. Their wolf form is based on their human appearance. Someone short and blond will be a small, almost white wolf. Someone tall and dark will be a larger, darker colored wolf.
Hybrids[VIP RACE]
Hybrids are creatures of two races. They feed like the races that they are part of. They only hold a few of each of the two racial abilities not all of them. These creatures are sometimes looked down on within the races. [vampire/mage] [mage/elf] [elf/vampire] [mage/shapeshifter] Events
