Anatomy of a Being
We are created in the image of the Creators. It is written in the First Text, and if the statues are at all accurate, one can see the similarities. They are a tall and powerful people, with deft fingers, sharp minds, and smooth skin. Like moving...
Sacred Families
Hello, curious reader. I, Sir Reginald the Clever, proudly write this for you, who seeks the mysteries of our past and can see how they shape our present. Long ago, when we were servants of the Creators, we were tasked with the conquering and taming...
The Rusted Promise
Promise, land of the proud and perfect beings. Land where any being can reach for the stars and be whatever he or she wants to be. Don't you believe it. Don't you believe it for a minute. I've read that, so called, writing. What you have to remember is...
Church of the Creators
The Creators Church, or Church of the Creators, was founded long before our arrival on Promise. Before I can discuss the church, I must explain the religion behind it. We are but an infant people. Our patrons, parents, and guides have existed for tens...
The Magic of Promise
One of the greater gifts given to us by the Creators. As brute beasts, we knew nothing of the wonders of grasping the raw forces of the cosmos and turning them to our own devices. Now, this knowledge is seeped into our very bloodlines. This is most...
Understanding the Shadow
Let us begin with their arrival. With the Shattering, Raquestia, the old moon, was destroyed. With the debris, they came. It was not clear at first. They seemed to hide in the rocks, barely visible in the corner of the eye and a faint whisper. Most...
The City of Firmament
Founded in the 67th year of our occupancy of Promise, Firmament rapidly became a city worthy of the world's name. Situated strategically at the mouth of the great Sweetwater river, from which the nation it resides gained its name, it is one of the...
The Clans of Promise
When the Creators fashioned us from the beings of the cosmos, they did not wish us to weigh too heavily on our direct lineages. Their imparted wisdom lifted from us much of our baser instincts, and as one their own religious doctrine states, 'In that...
The Social Standing of Soulless
As the newest caste of our society, I face unique challenges. I write this in the hopes that other soulless will benefit from my experience. My name is Johanne Thim, of the Graceful Folk clan. My lineage descends from the red fox. I have worked many...
On the Nature of Soulless
It is a commonly held, but false, belief by the common being that the soulless are incapable, or at least less capable, of feeling emotion and are less capable than their fellows. I write this paper to educate just how wrong this notion is. It is my...
A werewolf guide culture
Today's topic of discussion is Werewolf culture. **Overview** There really not a lot to talk about when talking about their culture as a whole. In terms of religion, their views would be classified close to paganism and Native American myths. Many...
Part One: Power Colors and Meanings
Hello, fans. I've seen at least two, if not three writers write some paragraphs detailing over how some elements of their worlds work. Soooooo, I thought I'd take a stab at the idea. *looks at his palm as it glows with dark blue electricity before...
