Musings The essence of our stories has always existed. In the world nearest to ours, there is a population of people, growing yet eternal and immortal, who spring from us - from our imaginations, from the seed of creativity that is the new existence of a definitive fictional character. You won't find replicas there, for the movement between planes is a changing thing, and you'll need to delve deep for the essence of our originals in Musings. In Seattle, a one-way portal between planes has allowed these beings to filter into societies all over earth, where they live mortal lives and find fulfillment in the power this world offers - however short the time to enjoy it. Rumors in Musings abound, telling of generations making lives here... and the exodus has begun. Equipped with supernatural abilities that do not exist in our world, the Creations (as they call themselves) find new challenges here. Among the immigrants there are those who wish to use their abilities for power and control of others; those who wish to defend the race they have joined, powerless though humans are; and those who would prefer to live their own lives in this new promised land.

DREAMS HAVE DIED

The times we laughed
THE TIMES WE CRIED

{ P L O T }
For centuries, the werewolves, vampires, and shape-shifters have been at war, always battling for dominance. This was a war so long that there could never be a winner. The conflict simply went on, because there was nothing else they knew how to do but fight. They forgot what they were fighting for, but still, they could not stop.

However, when the war became a danger to the survival of all three races, they were wise enough to call a truce. They vowed that they would exist in peace for all eternity and never again return to the chaos of war.

After this truce, the races existed in peace for several decades.

Now, however, the League of Hunters is growing and rising, and the werewolves, vampires, and shape-shifters are being exterminated by the dozens. A difficult choice faces them.

Will they join together and combat the hunters?

Or will they allow the hunters to exterminate them all?

A long time ago, the ancient gods decided to remedy an overcrowded Earth. They picked a new galaxy, one with plenty of room for all, and planets specialized for each being under their rule. Everyone had plenty of room to go about their businesses for thousands of years, blissfully unaware of the others on their planets.

Except for the Humans.

Always changing, evolving, learning new things, the Human population evolved much like their counterparts left on Earth. In a mere couple thousand years, they had covered almost their entire planet in cities, which soon merged into one planet-wide city. Their technologies could only sustain their needs for so long, and soon they had discovered their way into space flight, set on finding new planets to sustain their resources.

It was then that they realized they were not alone in the galaxy, and each planet they encountered had more new and exciting other sentient beings they thought had only existed in myth. Many of the beings welcomed them to their planets, trading resources and technologies, happy for brand new commerce, while others were not as receptive to the Humans arrivals on their planets. Some disdained them, and others hungered for their blood. The humans themselves had mixed reactions, as they often do. Sects of anti-Non-Humans rose up as other species began arriving on the Human home world. Others sought to use them to gain access to taking over their planets for themselves. While others embraced many of the new creatures, eager to learn from them, eager to make lasting friends.

On May 1st, 2009, nation leaders spoke together to reveal a truth to the world: the supernatural world is real. Vampires, werewolves, and more exist. They have been known to the government for a long time, and now they are coming out of the shadows - and they come with a message. They are not a threat. They mean no danger to humans. But there are other things out there that do.

The days that followed changed everything most people believed they knew about the world, about history, and most importantly, about themselves. Celebrities, politicians, the family down the street - they began revealing their true identities, and telling the world what they really were. Missing people that had been turned against their will came out of hiding, and orginizations popped up to reunite them with their families. The revealing of the supernatural was penned in the media as the Light of May, as society made room for the supernatural.

It wasn't easy. Many, human and supernatural alike, were terrified of what this would mean. Some wanted to keep the supernatural abominations down. Leading figures of both Democratic and Republican parties were revealed to be supernaturals themselves, and joined together to fight for civil rights for the supernatural. It is revealed that if the supernatural were wiped out, half of the entire world's population would be gone. Independent parties popped up through-out the country, opposing supernatural rights, and the fight goes on. But those aren't the only battles being fought.

Why did the Light of May happen? If the supernatural has always existed, why are they only making themselves known now? For centuries, those with supernatural blood have been hunted, held, and killed - all for the benefits of their blood to hunters, and vampires who don't want to play by the rules of etiquette. There was a time when the angels, and even the fae, fought to protect them. But the fae have been extinct for hundreds of years, and worse - the angels seem to have disappeared. There is nothing fighting the demons of the world at bay now. The human race is at risk, and they are not alone.
