[OoC] For blood and gore - Please join, and please give feedback please
Setting:
The idea is another fantasy world.
Magic exists, various magi sources exists, various stuff such as ki and spirit realm exists of sorts, hell exists, so does its logical counterpart, warp exists, psyonic exists, etc.
We are in a land where everything you want can be justfied, every darned horror exists. But there is more.
After quite some time, humanity was finally extincted after being outgunned and overpowered by every other race(Orcs, Elfs, Dragons, Zombie hordes, plagues, diseases, etc).
There is of course a few powerful individuals left: great mages, superpowered induviduals, avatars of gods, the few who have found the source of never age, etc.
Starting location:
You will be trapped in a small town in the north quite some time after snowfall. Its a part of the orcish domain, but that matters little. It is some time after the 2nd snowfall, which is a event that means that it is not possible to properly travel around the land by normal means until some time closer to spring. Farmers who are used to the season is capable of moving small distances, but about anybody else is trapped. The town does not have any trouble, besides quite a bunch of people trapped here who may or may not get tired of waiting for the good season comes again so they can leave.
It should be noted that it is not the monsters who roam the waists that is lethal, its the unbearable conditions. There does exist mages who have mastered the ability to move on snow which is hired by caravans to get around, but the caravans generally is not careless enough to bother such an foolish attempt.
Power level:
Each of the PC's starting power must be so high that they must be able to exterminate a village off the map without any help(but luck is still allowed).
However, not much stronger than that. That would be about 200 inhabitants somewhere in the middle of nowhere, about 8 armed hired men, and likely 70-80 people with pitchforks and scythes and other lethal household objects that might charge you. Oh and maybe 2-3 war veterans, or if your unlucky 15 of them.
If your character is not strong enough to do that, its likely too weak.

v
Race: Halfbreeds is recommended. Also be warned that pure elves lack the ability to sense time the way the other races do. The same applies to liches and undeads who has stayed dead for longer than two centuries.
For Lovecraftian monsters, see the notes section.
Name and thereof: Name, preffered nickname if any, bounties if any, or worse.
Appearance and cloths: Apperance, armor, cloths, etc. Important!
Avoid mail due the setting.
Background: Where are you from? Anything of interest happen in your past? Did you get to this cursed place by chance or is there something deeper here?
Weaponry: What your character is armed with
Even a simple steel glove with some padding under is a lethal weapon on the arm of a master, but magic items is recommended regardless. All characters except that strange man over there who is a demonic tentacle monster in disguise will have some sort of weapon.
Powers: What your characters powers is.
It might be the blessing of someone, perhaps a wizard cursed you for the lols, you might be born with it. Some god might favour you, you might be a fanatic of some cult that was granted power, you might be a powerful Psyonic, you might have had a century of magic training. Maybe your an alien armed with advanced weaponry, the choice is yours.
Notes:
*Feel free to ask questions
*You may pick any horrous race, so long they can communicate with humanoids and abide the starting power level(and of course start in the village). Prefferably within fantasy, but a chutulu tentacle creature communicating with mere mortals trough a illusion is welcome.
*Healing, regeneration, the ability to fool death, and some other abilities WILL be very useful.
*Wounds bigger than small cuts will be lethal.
*Brokes bones is lethal on the long run.... unless healed
*Swords is good for killing anything that lacks armor or scales, a solid mace tears trough most things but does not make the target bleed, a axe is somewhere between with highly powerful blows but nobody wants to dent the sharp edge.
*Note where you are from by noting such as "From south", "from far south", "an sanctuary untouched by filth" and classics like "I am not in a mood to tell."
*"Bag of holding" is another word for whoever makes a dimension pocket to store items, otherwise backpacks will be essential to a minor degree
*Having a shield on your back is practical and looks good.
*Avoid looking for clues for revenge, rather attempt to find adventure to get stronger or look for a master to train you. That black dragon is not going to get taken down that easy.
Edit: Can i get some more feedback, please?

Hmm, sounds interesting...
So you are supposed to make some sort of more powerful wanderer than the normal "Innocent hero searching in a never-ending quest".
When you mean "Wounds larger than small cuts will be lethal", will you kill of the player characters. 
Well, I'm probably in.

One more question, the first thing you say is the that humanity is extincted, is it half-breeds/anything else living in the village(s) or is it humans and we are part of the things that extincted humanity. I.e. they are here now but not after we're done?

Nah, we are not humans. You might be a quarter or 1/8 human, but then you would have to have some heck of a backstory regarding your lineage.
Human halfbreeds is rare, quite simply because its starting to have become some time since the last few humans group fell to the reapers scythe. A halfbreed human who is undead undead might do the trick, but that would mean a age closer to 200 years which might again start posing interesting stuff(time sense disorder).
We might run into a human sooner or later, as with all extincted races it just means that the few remaining are in the barely 100-200 of em. The few remaining is mortal titans, which may or may not has completely lost interest in this world. It would not be surprising that we might have to fight one of these really strong people, but beyond that there is no humans to worry about.
So yes, we will likely help out extincting the last part.

How is this?
Race: half-orc
Name and thereof: Hekloth, the Reaver, bounty of 5,000 gold pieces on his head.
Appearance and cloths: appearance is somewhat monsterish, he is wearing padded plate mail.
Background: heklath is a mercenary through and through and got here by sheer bad luck after he partcicipated in a long and protracted battle which his side unfortunately lost. he had fought long and heard, but fled as soon as he saw his life might be on the line. He was taken up amongst mercenaries among a young age, abandoned by his parents. the details were never too lear about who or what his mother was, but his father was definitely an orc. At first he carried weapons around for the mercenaries, then he joined the battles. After thirty years of this he had become a powerful warrior through luck, skill and endurance. Now, he has lost his mercenary grouping and must see that he finds another one. What is perhaps more important is that he must survive first.
Weaponry: Longsword that might enflame after it has come in contact with blood, a simple battle crossbow with some bolts and his great blak shield.
Powers:
Fiendish regenaration: he has the power to instantly heal cuts and scratches. Broken bones heal freakishly fast.
Berserker rage: can go into a frenzy where his sword has the power to kill people in full plate mail. Do not mess with him when he is angry.

Seems to qualify quite good, what is the part non-ork part? Elf, goblin, halfling, troll?
And are we talking favour of a God, or random willpower pulling down magic, or is it racial? For the healing that is?
And remember to weak cloaks and capes in town to hide the armor.

I'm posting a charater for the heck of it  (this is acually a good idea, too bad other people don't seem to agree with me )
Race: Shade (a race created when a mage challanges a dark wizard to a duel and loses. Shades are neither dead nor living)
Name, Nickname, and Bounty: Sefiok, the Shadow Whisper, Bounty of 4,500 Gold for his Cloak and Shortsword
Appearance and cloths: Like a living shadow (that stands upright  ) with glowing red eyes. He often wears a cloak to hide who he is.
Background: The earliest memory Sefiok has is learning magic from a hermit. He soon became a powerful mage, often recklessly over using magic. He challanged a dark wizard to a duel, lost, and was transformed into what he is now. He wanders lands, seeking for a place, and that's where his real story begins...
Weaponry: He has a shortsword hidden in his cloak and he can punch with super-human strength (though not it's earthquake powerful).
Powers: Shades are extremely hard to harm, being living shadows, but they can still be killed. Also, Sefiok becomes almost invisable at night. On a more minor note, Sefiok levatates a bit of the ground, and he has no need to swim or climb.
Is he to UP?

Since BETA is not posting in Supervillains like he should! I guess I'll just join it fer kicks.
Name: Unknown (will be revealed later)
Alias/Nickname: Jester (other people call him that and he responds to it, but he never calls himself that)
Race: A most unusual mix. He is half Demon and half Divine (Like a god or angel). However, he seems to have embraced his Demonic side.
Appearance: He is physically strong, but very lean and wiry. He also is relatively tall, standing at 6'4, but hunches over a lot. No one ones what he looks like behind his mask, for he never takes it off, but he has very thick, shiny, dark hair that flows down under his Jester's cap. He generally wears dark Jester clothing with a large heavy coat and his Demon mask, but with what looks like pieces of armor placed on different parts of the outfit.
Age: Unknown
Background: Unknown
Weapons: 2 double barreled, magically augmented flintlock pistols, a dozen throwing knives, 4 daggers, 2 dirks, and a large glowing Demon zweihander on his back that he almost never uses.
Powers: teleportation, invisibility, regenerates whenever he kills, can also use holy magic (blessing, healing, and smiting).
