Hey, the plot seemed interesting, so I joined up. Buuut... I've got a few questions.
The rules section doesn't list very many rules, so I was wondering if face claims were required or not. And whether it has to be a real-life person (not gonna lie, I'm a total anime geek).
In the races board, there's no information on the races (unless I've gone blind and are just missing it), just hybrids (which are all crossed off). So, what does that mean for the races? Can you create a vampire with traits from any vampire fiction you want? Asian vampires differ from European vampires, and modern media blends various traditional folklore. "Fairy" as well has many, many different definitions depending on the culture. Witches and Werewolves are also subject to many different interpretations. So, I guess I'm asking for some clarification. I'm a stickler for details.
Regarding, Asian vampires, what's the rest of the world doing? Is it only the U.S. that's under supernatural siege? And what the crap is the government/military doing while this is going on?
Can supernatural characters side with humans or be completely neutral? Conversely, are there any humans who side with supernatural beings? Taking that a step further, I can easily see human cults springing up that worship one or all of supernatural races.

Okay something has gone terribly wrong and I accidently must have deleted the rules and the information on the races. If you will stick around I will rewrite them and hopefully that will answer most of the questions.
Sorry for all of this mess.

To answer the rest of your questions.
The government as of right now has no idea what to do about the supernatural beings but that may all change as this site grows. The rest of the world is simply leaving the US to their own problems.
Yes, it is not written in stone that humans can't side with supernatual beings and vise versa.

Heh. I see. So, the government is just twiddlin' their thumbs for now. I kinda hope they do become involved in the future.
Anywho, about the application template... shouldn't there be a "magic" or "powers" or whatever section? Especially for witches and fairies, who can cast various spells. You know, so we know who can do what beforehand and people can't just pull abilities/spells out of their butts to solve any problem.
Witch/Fairy: "No, it's cool. I've got a spell for [insert any problem]"...
Regarding spells, I think I'm gonna make a witch. What kind of spells are allowed? Would it be possible to create my character's spell list from Dungeon's & Dragons? They're all clearly defined with rules of usage and limitations.

I am leaving it open to what kind of spells you can use. If they are just ridiculous than I will say something.

Ha. That's good.
Can you explain the birthmark/scar thing: "Remember all witches have one birthmark and every vampire has at least one scar"? I've never seen that particular requirement for either race and I was planning on giving my witch a scar, not a birthmark.

When I rewrote it I forgot to be that in. Witches are all born with a birthmark, and vampires have one scar from where they were bitten. Your witch can have a scar but they also must have a birthmark as well.

Huh. All righty. Is it like... special or unique in some way? What makes it stand out from a normal human's birthmark?

No its just a normal birthmark. I didn't make it special because I went with the idea that humans can easily be mistaken for witches because of the birthmarks. Kind of like the witch trials.
