Glossary
In Characer: (IC)
Playing a character, not yourself.
Out of Character: (OOC)
Any chat not within the context of Role Play.
Post:
The typed words from a character.
Scene:
A complete collection of posts from two or more people.
Lycanthrope/Shifter:
These both mean the exact same thing. They are defined as a human who shifts out of their human bodies into an animal form. Any species of Shifter can be called a Lycanthrope.
Alpha:
This term, within this version of the Anitaverse, is a ranking of a Lycanthrope within their group. This will mean different titles within different groups yet the "alphas" will be the highest ranked in control/power within their group as determined by the leader of their group.
Hybrid form:
The form in which a human shifts to that is halfway between human and beast forms. In this state, the lycanthrope walks on two legs, has a tail, and a head that resembles their beast as well as having some humanesque qualities. The eyes are typically shifted and the body is furred.
Lupanar:
The meeting place for werewolves on the full moons. This is the place where the munin will be located.
Munin:
A scared item (rock/tree etc) that holds the spirits of the former members of the pack.
Master of the City:
Is a vampire that rules over the other vampires within a particular city. They have the ultimate decision over the punishment/rewards that vampires are dealt. All vampires that live in their territory must oath to them.
Oathing:
A ritual in which a vampire that is entering a Master of the City's territory feeds from an offered body part which gives the Master not only a link to the vampire but is also a show of loyalty from the vampire to the Master.
NPC:
Short for Non-Player Character, it is a game character not played by a person, it is the computer player.
