This should hopefully replace the census. If you can also post your character type here, that would be handy too.
**EDIT**
And mine would be a 'cubi.
Being. Born without, strive to accomplish.
Human. Hi there!
Zomg, a human! Kill it kill it kill it! D:
Me = Being.
Being.
I think Ninja should be a separate category. Just 'cause. :mowninja
Kasarn would be a Demon :]
My other main characters would be Beings... but we don't care about them :P
Hey, cool, a fitting category. Regardless of power, a human I am.
Usually.
Of course then we get into the whole bit with the alternate form, and th- *shot*
I'd be a Humaseeri. Still not sure if that would be under "Being" or "Other/Non-magical", though....
Dragon.
Rawr!
Hmmm, I think I'll choose.... oh so many choices... Oh! Cubi! Yeaaah, that sounds about right... :nod
I Were, I am and I will be. >:3
Mythos/other magical. I don't know the exact definition, but he definitely would be classified as something within that category.
'Cubi. Still working on my avatar, but it'll be one. :boogie

Yeah, about that... Last two times, my avatar has disappeared (using DeviantArt), and now I can't change it. Anyone have any advice?
Undead. Zombies rock my socks!
Clever of you to specify the necessity that our character be in DMFA. We learn from our errors, in this forum! =D

Use a different image hosting site?
Like what? I don't really have any ideas, and I don't have my own website.
Photobucket's a fine place to host.
Self = Other non-magical(box);

If you don't like it, there's something wrong. :mowwink
Other non-magical. Sapient AI robot to be precise, not that any of you organic meatbags know what that means. j/k :januscat

DA absolutely, positively will not allow that kind of image linking. Your avatar has never appeared at all for me :P I use Photobucket for my stuff, it works fine so far.
And this poll is turning out interesting... I think we'll have at least one of everything besides two categories.
I might be the same as always...A incubis
mythos......i always tought EVERY single of us is a myth...
Mine is Human, yet is Angel/Demon...so I chose Other Magical...

Great. More were jokes. Alright, here I am.
Well, amber said there probably won't be kitsune in the sense I would like to be, so a fox fae is probably the closest.
Mythos/other magical for me. I sorta fit the Angel description, but I wasn't sure, so I figured this was the best route. :P
Dragon, who promises to never ever hurt Dan. (Huggle glomps don't count, right?)

I've just tweaked the question actually - it looked like some kind of weird cameo request :P
Being reporting in
I like how the beings vastly outnumber any other single race, like they do in the comic >.>
Being.
Magical abilities are for sissies.

Hear hear! Pure, unbridled evolution is the way! For the overmind!
Being. And, uh, Geraldson? That guy is acting up again. >:3
Other non-magic. That's open to multiple definitions.
I'm still working on the exact definitions, but it will definitely be undead.
(Though I'm sad for abandoning that were idea)
Well, I'd like to think of myself as some sort of Phoenix or Angel, but being a squid-tongued clown-freak actually sounds pretty interesting, too.
So I'd have to say "Other Magical."
Really, I haven't settled on a permanent identity, but the ones I come up with usually fit that category pretty well anyway.
I'd go with black panther cubi
(http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a370/Mana_Oath/Fae.jpg)
I'll go with human here. Why? Because it would freak everyone out.
Freak everyone out? We already have 5 of you people.
Well, that freaks me out. Too many meatbags! D:
What, the other folk don't fall under the "meatbag" classification? :B
Yeah, technically speaking, all relatively fleshy lifeforms would be meatbags.

I guess not. Maybe we're just 'furbags'. :/
No, unless your interiors are entirely made of fur.
Yeah, I dunno how furbags would hope to survive...
Good points, meatbags.
If i had to, i would be a were, not only can they transform into a human (I like being human thanks ;) ) form, but they also can transform into a full animal form which is very powerfull magic wise..
Combine this with being very hard to find amongst beings and the fact that the human form has antimagic ability's you quickly realise they actually have the best of ALL worlds.. and there for are the only logical choice :P
Well, sorta.
Were's CAN turn into fuill animals, but the generally accepted theory is that, when they change, they are fully animalistic, thus no real intelligence of a "human" level until such time as they change back.
Add to that the normally, your average werewolf cannot change into half man-half animal forms unless they are very powerful, and yeah... not always the best of all worlds.
What I'd like to be, or what I'd probably be?
Probably a being. While I've always envisioned my character as having an alternate form (one, only, an animalistic form to compliment my anthropomorphic form), I don't think that the DMFA version of a were fits at all, because I've always felt that I/he would be someone who survived absed on his skills an amrtial prowes rather than having magic to fall back on (or an immunity thereof)
I'd probably end up working for Jyrryas, or one of his contemporaries, and end up like this (http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_363.php).
Lotsa meatbags here...
Went with Being as well.
A blank template of a character is easy to develop.

Well, the original idea was sparked off by Silverfox and a few others who said there were too many 'cubi characters in the forum. So I began to wonder if there were, in a statistical sense. In effect, the idea is to try and get a cross-section of character types although you're free to interpret the data as you wish.
( The first attempt was a pie chart, but it had a few problems:

That doesn't sound like the description of DMFA weres. Aren't you talking about some other kind of weres?
Sounds like werewolves to me. (The ordinary kind.)
Yeah, i looked up DMFA weres first before posting Darkmoon :P
http://www.missmab.com/Demo/were.php
Hrm... well, there aren't any kitsune, but there are warp achi! So Mythos/magical.
And it'd be sssooo much easier to steal things... just poof, and it's gone! *dreamey-eyed*
This is what we call thread necromancy. Read the rules. Don't do it.
