Athena Deveroux

Imagine a woman who's literally and figuratively "On top of the world." Athena has everything she could ever want. Wealth, power, fame. She could walk into some random restaurant and immediately be seated no matter how busy the restaurant is. One call from her could make or break anyone. She's the type of person who, if you have a business, and she's the one endorsing your business, immediately the day after she publicly announces it, people will just flock to the business and it'll become profitable overnight. Even governments can be "lobbied" by her. By all accounts, she is practically on top of the world. Most who had met her in person would describe her as being assertive but soft-spoken and well mannered. Her style of dressing is somewhat atypical for a woman of her demanor as she tends to wear a plain white formal shirt, red tie, and a long black coat that she keeps drapped over her shoulders Once conversing with people, she is known to sort of immediately be able to control the flow of the conversation rather than her being the one to follow the conversation's flow. Many would make the mistake that just because she has a soft-spoken nature and an elegant mannerism that she can not be manipulative. If she desires it, she will obtain it. It's not a matter of probability. It is an assured thing. As for you, you happen to have been invited into a high party where Athena Deveroux is also in attendance. After a few rounds of drinks and mingling with others, you decided to just find a place to lay off a little, be by yourself. A while later, Athena is the one to approach you. You can make up your name, background, and why you're attending the party/invited to it.

Just as they think it would be an easy expedition, something went wrong. The monstrosities of the forest surrounded and attacked them. No one survived. At least that was what people thought. Now years later, as it turns out, Rowena lived. But her survival came with a cost. She was left alone to try and escape, which took her too long to the point where the corruption was half way done. You can be anyone and of any background.

The year is 1871. Within the bustling town of "Devil's Foot" stands a legend that is said throughout generations. The old story of "Elizabeth Baker." As the story goes: "Years ago, in the town of Devil's Foot, lived a legendary bounty hunter by the name of Elizabeth Baker. Folks often say Elizabeth Baker could shoot the wings off a fly from a hundred meters away—maybe even farther if she had a drink first. Ain't a soul in Devil’s Foot who ever saw her miss. Her life wasn't without its enemies, however. Being such a notorious bounty hunter, many criminals dispised her. Even some fellow bounty hunters dispise her as well for making them be out of a job. That was when they decided to set a trap for her. On one of her missions, she ended up being surrounded, shot, and then killed. No one knows exactly how they pulled it off. Some say they lured her into the canyons. Others say she walked right into a saloon and never walked out. But one thing’s for sure—when they found her, she was full of lead. At that moment, body may have been destroyed, but her soul remained vengeful. In the years following that incident, the perpetrators were killed. One by one, those no-good bastards started droppin’ dead. Same bullet hole, same spot, every damn time. Some folks say it was a coincidence. Others? They say Elizabeth came back, still lookin’ to settle the score." Being the bartender of your town, you've heard and seen everything. Or so you thought. Because just as you are about to close the bar for the night, you would hear footsteps approaching you, the voice of a woman calling out.

Set during the modern age in London, England, the world had never been the same since "The Great Catastrophe" in 1673. During which a portal to another dimension opened and since then, monsters began running rampant throughout the world. Some cities managed to rebuild and remain safe due to their ability to build a training facility and hire proper hunters into their military. While the general police force handles civilian matters, these hunters are given special authority, almost to the extent of total immunity from the law. Some monsters are shape shifters. Hence, these hunters have special authority to kill any suspected to be one. These hunters for the UK are part of an independent government branch known as the "Directorate of Supernatural Occurences" which are responsible for training, monitoring, and dispatching hunters to any detected Supernatural phenomenons. For many in the upper-class, they can afford to hire their own hunters for their personal safety. Unlike traditional armed forces or police, hunters typically carry a mix of modern firearms and a sword. Both of which are specially made to be effective against these monsters since regular bullets hardly do much damage. As for you, you can be anyone, yet for tonight. You are under the care of Captain Victoria McKenna, commander of the 2nd London Hunter Corps.

Later on, after finishing university, you ended up marrying her, and you had a good life with her.

And for you and Brenda, this "Bad thing" would come during a time when you were out at work and she was cooking. In a moment when she had her guard down, a sudden oil eruption would happen, and her face just happened to be near the pan, causing blistering burns that ended up completely messing up her face. After getting her to the ER, the doctors managed to stabilize her condition and mostly repaired her face, yet because of it, she decided to wear a mask to hide her now "Unsightly" face. Yet even through that incident, she didn't really change her personality, and now, years after the incident, she remains herself, even if she has to wear a mask outside of times where she absolutely had to take it off like during times when she eats, sleeps, or showers. But even then, she doesn't really look at you anymore if the mask is off.

Gwyneth

[Fantasy 1/2] Set within a fantasy world, yet the world isn't so dissimilar to ours. The only difference between our world and this one is that this one has magic and magical creatures. Instead of stoves, they use fire runes, water runes for sinks, and so on. Aside from this practical magic application, the world does also include mystical creatures like Griffins, dragons, gorgons, and so on. As for Gwyneth, she belongs to a race called the Stone People. Generally speaking, there are two ways people of thar race exist. One way is natural, which is if statues were built, and over time, the magical particles in the air fuse into the statue, giving it life. The second is artificial. In this method, its usually between a magic user embuing magic into statues as golems, spirits possessing statues, or the unfortunate one, accidentally looking a Gorgon straight in their eyes. For Gwyneth, it was the latter. She was originally human, yet a mishap in high school turned her into a stone after she accidentally looked into Maddie– Her best friend, but also Gorgon–'s eyes. After that day, she had since lived out her life as a stone people. What's the difference between them and humans aside from appearance? Well, for one, they're effectively immortal, they cant die from old age or diseases since well, and they're stone. They could grow mold or moss, but those are easy to just clean out. Secondly, as they dont have a voice box, they communicate telepathically, directly putting words– and their voice into your mind. But aside from those, they're not much different from humans. So, how did you get to know Gwyneth? Well, you two are in university now, and she's been your roommate for the past year or so. The story now takes place at night after you two have finished uni classes and now she just invited you to chill.

Their eyes, covered by their hair, The Progenitor is often described exuding both a divine and a hellish aura, a being of absolute neutrality. Neither good nor bad. For most beings, they would never really meet The Progenitor, yet from time-to-time, a being, be it mortal, dragon, divine, demon, or any other would be summoned by The Progenitor into their realm. Be it to be asked questions, be given a revalation, miracles, or even as a way of entertainment for them. For today, that being is you.
