Miss Nightjar's Home for Peculiar Children

[red_inactive]

~A Parody of the Peculiar Children books~

[Haven't read the books? A quick summary of what is what is down below!]

Miss Nightjar runs the New York loop, the date being July 5th, 2016. Equipped with all sorts of modern equipment, these children have been cleverly hidden; they are believed to be orphans at a simple orphanage, until the massive fire on July 6th.

(In this roleplay, humans can enter the loop safely.)

-Taken directly from the third book-

+ Peculiars: The hidden branch of any species, human or animal, that is blessed - and cursed - with supernatural traits.

+ Loop(s): A limited area in which a single day is repeated endlessly. Created and maintained by ymbrynes to shelter their particular wards from danger, loops delay indefinitely the aging of their inhabitants.

+ Ymbrynes: The shape-shifting matriarchs of peculiardom. They can change into bird at will, manipulate time, and are charged with the protection of peculiar children. (Personal side note: Only females are ymbrynes. Males born with the ability to change from human to bird do not have the same powers as ymbrynes.)

+ Hollowgast: Monstrous ex-peculiars who hunger for the souls of their former brethren. Corpselike and withered except for their muscular jaws, within they harbor powerful, tentacle-like tongues. Especially dangerous because they are invisible to all but a few peculiars.

+ Wights: A hollowgast that consumes enough peculiar souls becomes a wight, which are visible to all and resemble mortals in every way except one: their pupil-less, perfectly white eyes.

[Casual Scribbles]

Gender: female
Peculiar or Normal?: peculiar
Peculiarity: can change form into any animal, including some mythical creatures. (Not a unicorn though. More like dragon, gryphon, manticore, etc.)

Other: nope
