SPECIES LIST
We only have six types of species on IKYWT. If you would like to create a new species pm the staff and we will discuss it. Kitsune are from the books but they are going to be introduced as another species here. What's thought to be canon is everything in the show and not the books other than Kitsune. Hybrids and Kitsune will only be obtained if you have permission from the staff.
VAMPIRE
Vampires are known to have as many weaknesses as strengths. For one they burn in the sunlight unless they have a daylight ring that is spelled by a witch. They are very hard to come by though. They are also able to compel humans into doing their bidding by looking into their eyes. Only Originals can compel other vampires. If someone drinks vervain or has some on their person they won't be affected. Vampires are unable to have children, that doesn't mean that they don't have the same bodily urges as normal humans. Hybrid and Werewolf bites are fatal unless a vampire drinks the blood of a hybrid. Cannot be older than the originals. Must be at least a few years younger than the originals. If a human is turned they have a 5% chance of acquiring a sire bond. Vampires can't enter a human dwelling unless invited in. They are able to die by being staked, beheaded, or if their heart is removed. Vampires can only be TURNED. A human must drink the blood of a vampire and die with it in their system to become a vampire.
WEREWOLF
Werewolves only change on the full moon. They are born with the gene but only can become a werewolf when they kill someone. Whether it be on accident or on purpose. Their worst weakness is wolfsbane which weakens them. Being the natural enemy of vampires tend to hunt them when in wolf form. When in wolf form it is hard to control oneself.
HUMAN
Everyone knows what a human is. Most have no powers but some are able to see ghosts, read aura's, and like in Elena's case are a doppleganger. If you want some type of power other than what is listed you must discuss it with a staff member.
WITCH
Witches are the balance of the world. Most are loyal to the earth and try to keep balance between the supernatural. However, some neglect their duty that comes with power (like Faye). They cannot be any type of hybrid. Some witches have more connection to one type of element than others. Some will be able to use fire more frequently and others will be able to use nature magic more often. It usually depends on the witches personality. A witch with dark magic is very rare. Only 7% are able to use it. The only witches able to use dark magic are those who are related by blood to the Balcoin family.
HYBRID
Hybrids are ONLY vampire/werewolf. They are able to turn into wolf form whenever they want, however it is still very painful. One can break a sire bond only if they turn into their wolf form at least a hundred times. All hybrids have a sire bond. They can only be created by Klaus with Elena's blood. Can survive on blood or food, whichever the hybrid prefers. Can walk in the sunlight.
KITSUNE
Kitsune are a new species born from Inari (the first and most powerful Kitsune) and a human. Kitsune are almost as rare as Originals. There are possibly only ten of them on earth. They age just like humans except they take longer to age. They age five times slower than a human. The fur color of the fox depends on their personality. If they lean towards good intentions they have white fur. If they are more mischievous they have red fur. The more tails a fox has the more powerful they are. (There are no foxes with more than six tails) Kitsune can shapeshift into a fox. They will run from dogs if they are nearby and are very easy to kill this way. They have a star ball (hoshi no tams) that they are born with and connected to. They hide it well because if it is destroyed it will destroy the Kitsune. A Kitsune cannot be without it for too long or they will die. They are able to create illusions and use compulsion only if they hold the star ball. Like vampires they can die from a werewolf bite and are naturally hunted by werewolves. Hybrid blood can heal them.
