I have an idea for an ally of humanity (we obviously wont play as one), I got it from a book I read a while ago, let me write it up and see if it fits.

edit: here it is

Suggestion for an ally of humanity, taken wholesale from a fantasy novel

Dragonlords aka Weredragons

Dragonlords are born with a split soul, half dragon and half human, until an adult (earliest is about 20) they are indistinguishable from a normal human. When “first change” comes upon them, they have an irrational urge to get out into the open, where they change into their dragon body for the first time.
Dragonlords have made themselves guardians of humanity, in the book this basically means that they are arbitrators and judges, as most of the issues facing humanity come from within it.  For this game however the threat is an outside force, thus they would be free to act as warriors.
Dragonlords are “given to eachother” before they are even born, they instinctively do not form romantic attachments until they find their Soul twin

Abilities:
Longer life span
Enhance strength, speed, visual acuity
can summon “coldfire” which provides illumination but not heat, normally pure white but can be coloured at the dragonlord's discression
Immune to all non-magical fire and heat
can communicate mind to mind, and allow others to respond
Able to transform into a (small – still a fair bit bigger than a human though)dragon, takes approximately 3 seconds, and can be done at will unless exhausted. During the process their body (and clothing, but no other items) is changed into a red mist, which expands to the shape of a dragon and then solidifies, if the mist is pierced by iron or steel, they are unmade.
As a dragon they are even stronger, can breath fire as well as “healing” fire, which is blue green in colour and heals most injuries and illnesses instantly, they may not speak, however the mind to mind communication ability makes this a non-issue.

You are not in the player list, I can guess you are not playing.

Your char sheet looks sort of shabby too, which might be why. :P

I will agree with dwarmin as well, put a bit more thought into the background, you will have a more interesting character as a result

Oh,now I see why I got confused.
Hellhound posted after me,but he started writing earlier.
And yes,I know the background is not very good,I wrote it in a rush(Not being a native speaker also makes things worse).

Yeah, is this thing still going on? Seems we got off to a shaky start.

I mean, I'm this close to just writing the turn out myself. :P

I'm pretty sure he was just joking, but players hijacking the game to keep it going would be pretty awesome.

OK well I have PMed VEster, asking to at least not be left hanging, Vester has had a while to respond, so I am going to ask if anyone else is willing to resurrect this, as I reaaaaly want a game that I get to be a werewolf, plus this looked really promising

Vester has been offline for three days...he might literally not be able to get to a computer to update. It's the reason I have not gone ahead with what I said earlier yet. I don't wanna get raged on. :P
