Ever since the human mind has been able to understand the truth of the world, we would come to learn more about the true nature of the soul, Light, and Darkness. Light represents order for Mankind, and creates the projection that allows their forms, the heavy shadow of life, to exist. Dark represents the primal and powerful nature of Mankind, and serves as something of an anchor for life's continued existence. However, not every form of life follows the same rules Mankind does. Most are known to be simple things, animals to be treasured or used. However, there are some, known as Ixii, that upset the fragile imbalance of Dark and Light with their very existence.
The Ixii are made of only darkness, without a mote of light to illuminate their souls. They in turn consume darkness, so the Light may cast a darker, and stronger shadow. This upsets the balance. It is known what this does within humans. If Light overflows, the body is lost in a blazing flash and a Saint is born, a creature of deadly purification and vengeance. If Dark overflows, the body is corrupted, eventually producing a Reaper. Very rarely, they even consume the heart of a world- a force of Light- and we have yet to see the effects of that. We can only imagine what would happen if a world would succumb to such an imbalance...
And yet, the stars in the sky, other worlds in the Kosmos- they are going out one by one. But, we are not defenseless. For generations there have been those that can control the natures of their souls, Keepers, they are called. They, with the power of their souls, can fight against the Ixii before other worlds, nay, all worlds, succumb to imbalance.
Only time will tell if we are doomed.

Greetings, I have come with the above, a short introduction to the universe of Sangfroid: Keepers of Dark and Light. In this RP players will be taking control of the titular Keepers, individuals that can manipulate their souls and the elements of dark and light within them to combat the foes of Mankind. The characters will visit numerous other worlds of somewhat original design as they fight the forces of the Ixii collective and struggle to balance out their own abilities; for every time they call upon their soul they get closer and closer to a state of imbalance. This is to create a dynamic that makes combat more than just fighting- it is fighting for the right and ability to survive in one's current state. As such, I would like players that have the skills to type up posts that can encapsulate the feelings that combat, possible inpending dread, and the struggle to keep one's soul in check. Four to six of these individuals will do, if people so choose to join.
More information will become available as questions are asked and people confirm that they will join. Thank you for your time, and a good day to you.
