Five Thousand Club
The Vigilants of Kenterra: an organization whose founding is lost to time. A group that is known far and wide, yet very little is known about them. What everyone knows is that these hunters stalk the city streets, tracking and destroying the shattered that threaten lives and peace throughout the realm, regardless of kingdom.
But what makes a Vigilant? They don't take recruits when asked, only those they choose. And those they choose are what they call 'shards'. Many people will go through life with a shard-heart without even seeing a Vigilant. But once awakened, usually through stress or trauma, a shard begins to call to Vigilants. A shard that progresses will drive their heart to darker and darker acts until they become shattered: mutant abominations with strength and powers beyond any normal mortal, driven only to kill, destroy, and devour.
Once a shard awakens, there are only two paths for them to take: become a Vigilant, or die. A Vigilant learns to harness the powers within their shard and to use it in tandem with weaponry, arctech, magic, or whatever else the shard can utilize to take down their quarry. Once a shattered it put down, they absorb the excess energies to heighten their powers even as they keep from awakening further. The best Vigilants are centuries old, and many have become focused only on the hunt, forsaking everything that newer Vigilants hold dear: friends, family, love... their purpose is their duty.

Hello! I hope that the little blurb above may have interested you! My name is Mythy, and I'm hoping to find people interested in playing an RP in a setting of mine, one I'm writing stories within. Currently, the plot idea is that the Player Characters are newly recruited Vigilants who are about to leave the Vigil on their first hunt. I'm hoping to find 3-5 people currently to join me! If you're interested or have comments, please let me know below!
(There are two planned races at this time: Humans and Aeteron. Aeteron are humans with various animal features and traits that are heavily attuned to the stars. The multitude of signs, constellations, planet alignments, etc. that run their course between conception and birth influences an Aeteron's traits.)
