A SUPERNATURAL / ANITA BLAKE BASED STORYLINE
IN A LAND FAR, FAR AWAY ..
The quiet town of Fallencaster lays nestled near the bay, a business sector of Boston, that handles the imports and exports in the year 1669. The constant motion of people swamp the seaside town, bringing new and mysterious people to live alongside the rest of the town's innocent residents. The threat of pirates always looms, but the arrival of these men carry on throughout the day, as they bombard the city with their way of life; infiltrating the local taverns and befriending the locals, only to swindle the very people they manipulate out of the very clothes on their back. But aside from the pirates and the thieves, something else walks walks and blends amongst the people. And some are scarcely unseen by the human eyes, and it is best, they never truly see the truth.
Vampires have come to the new world in search of new land and new followers, a new sense of life and purpose away from the glorious Vampire Council in Europe. It was more than time to distance themselves and form their own rules, their own system, even their own bloodline. It is easy for the vampires to blend within the townspeople, easily masquerading as one of them; the beautiful monsters that they are, keeping to the shadows, to themselves, until the time arrives for them to make an unsuspecting mortal their attentive donor for the night. Aside from vampires, a new breed of human being has emerged, people infected with the lycanthropy strain. Shapeshifters, as they are called, capable of taking on the ability to shapeshift into the creature they are "cursed" with. There are four distinct flavors of shapeshifters in this time: wolves, leopards, rats, and the unique and rare mutated strain that gives one more than a single beast to change into.
Even the vampires and shapeshifters are unsuspectful of the hidden war that lies between the normal society and the preternatural. It is a war of angels versus demons. Angels living amongst people, some guiding certain individuals through life toward certain obstacles or achievements; whilst the demons struggle to break down a person's soul, collect it and distribute it in hell, where the victim goes to serve out eternity. Angels and demons can blend and live together, but not in harmony. And it is in Fallencaster, where the struggle to save the town from d**nation, comes the challenge of keeping the stressful times from plunging the town into total darkness.
These are new beginnings, new faces,
new kinds of magic to light the darkest of nights.
Yet the souls of all that live here are at stake.
new kinds of magic to light the darkest of nights.
Yet the souls of all that live here are at stake.
