I was a murderer. I killed for nothing but my own pleasure. And that was a poison in my veins. It drew me on, and I followed like an eager pup, unaware of my ignorance. And on the precipice of success I paid the price for that, and was consumed by the dark.
I was a murderer. Now I kill for a purpose.
This time, I will be a king.
Zodiacs
Zodiacs are powerful beings who possess incredible magical abilities. They live within a ‘spirit’ realm that exists alongside Earth, called Limbo. Despite their power they cannot directly cross into the human world in a corporeal body. Only by taking on a ghostly form, invisible to the human eye and lacking any of their abilities, can they visit Earth. This ethereal form can move freely back and forth between the two worlds at any time, and can teleport to any location on Earth.I was a murderer. I killed for nothing but my own pleasure.

Zodiacs
While they cannot physically affect the world they can form a contract with a human, who then becomes their Host. Hosts can access a fraction of a Zodiacs powers to be used in the human world, as well as see Zodiacs and Hollows. Zodiacs can, if they choose to, limit or completely restrict the powers their Host can access for a time. This allows Zodiacs to influence events on Earth the way they wish, despite the limitations placed upon them. The main drawback is by forming a contract, a Zodiac can now only appear nearby their Host.
There’s no clearly identifying property that makes a person a good host. But all hosts contain a potential within them, ready to be tapped into by a contract.
Hollows
Hollows are animalistic spirits that primarily inhabit Limbo. While some possess minor magical abilities, they are far weaker than Zodiacs in their home realm and avoid them whenever possible. However, unlike Zodiacs, they are able to travel between the realms without issue, keeping their corporeal form and all their powers. Still invisible to the human eye they have the capability to wreak havoc if left unchecked. The majority of contracts formed between Zodiacs and humans are in response to out of control Hollows.Evertine, Maine
A small city of fifteen thousand inhabitants in the north east of the state, it is well known for the oddly high number of paranormal occurrences throughout its history. It is also well known for its nationally acclaimed institution, Crowtree University, located on the north edge of the city. Despite a unique take on student acceptance and curious teaching curriculum it boasts some of the highest scores in the country and multiple famed alumni. In recent years the city has become a political hotbed thanks to Congressman Jonathon Strauss skyrocketing in popularity amongst voters.The Roleplay
The RP will be semi open world, supernatural, slice of life action RP. It's a lot of genres but they're all relevant. Characters are free to do as they wish most of the time, and it is even possible to avoid some plot points by ignoring information or willing disregarding it. However the plot will keep moving as time passes and there may be undesirable consequences for a character’s absence.All characters will begin as recently accepted university students who have been living in the dorms for one to two weeks. The roleplay will begin on the first day of the new term with an orientation lecture for the new students. You can find the roleplay's discord server here: https://discord.gg/4HYyFez. If you're interested at all I encourage you to join, whenever I’m online I’ll be happy to answer any questions about the RP and the way it will be run. The discord server will also serve as the primary OOC chat during the RP so it'll be sticking around. If you don't have discord I will still be checking this thread regularly so your questions will get answered.
