Late into the year 2054, large cracks and sinkholes were appearing in the ground, in places all over the world. These cracks and holes were revealed to have large, cavernous areas beneath them, with the cracks themselves being several feet deep. In the year 2089 and when they began to become a problem, the sinkholes were looked into more closely. One year after, creatures began emerging from these holes and were contained as they appeared.
Just two years after exploring the cavernous areas, the creatures that were emerging soon became too difficult to deal with and spread. This led to panic as larger things began to make their way into the cities, such as aquatic dragons looking for places to stay and the Arafem (tall, cloaked women with the legs of a spider). The year is now 2087.
Cities are now much smaller than they used to be, and "old" buildings such as skyscrapers are used often. There are some new towns, however, that were brought up by the families of Witches and Wizards. Horses and coaches are frequently used, while cars are kept as decorations by the wealthy.
Species to Note:
Imitan- Large creatures, typically the size of huskies with long bodies and wings that branch off of their arms, similar to a bat’s. Their faces are broad and their noses are in a half moon shape (comparable to that of a big cat’s). Typically, an Imitan’s eyes will be narrow and long, appearing to be yellow or brown with round pupils. Their wings are quite large compared to their bodies, and are covered in large feathers that tend to be five to eight inches long at their largest; their bodies are short furred in colors of brown, white, black, yellow, and grey. In addition, the Imitan are predators and were once kept in warm, treed domes; they are also known to mimic what they are hunting as a means of attracting it. The species name is a variation of the Latin word for, “Imitate”.
Arafem- Pale, spindly and cloaked women with long, shiny black hair. Their skin appears to be tinted, though the color varies. At first glance, they appear to be pretty women wearing thick, darkly colored robes. However, under these robes are eight legs (such as that of a spider) that are covered in leaky holes. The liquid that appears from these boils can cause severe burns and can warp certain metals. In the few cases that they are without their robes, vibrantly colored patterns can be seen on their backs and arms; their eyes are solidly colored with their pupils being barely visible. They were usually kept in damp, dark areas of the biodomes. The species name comes from the two Latin words meaning, “Spider-woman”.
Aviden- Long furred animals comparable in size to animals such as giraffes, the exception being that their legs aren’t quite as thin. Their necks are maned with fur that tends to be more colorful and vibrant than the rest of the fur on their bodies. Having dragon-like faces, the very ends of their muzzles are covered in scales and their eyes are ovular and house large circular pupils. Their tails, similarly to certain areas of their faces, have spatterings of colorful scales. These animals were kept in lakes and rivers and eat mostly large water birds. The species name comes from the two Latin words meaning, “Bird eater”.
Liatus- Medium height (5’4” ft tall) women/men with pale skin that is tinted either light pink or is completely white/devoid of color. Their hair is often the same color as their skin, housing darkly colored horns in varying shapes. Though the size and curve vary, their horns tend to resemble that of a modern deer’s or ram’s; sometimes these horns curve around their ears from the backs of their heads, curving upward. Their calves are dark brown/grey and have the texture of rock, being as heavy as the material as well. While this is the case, their joints still operate normally. As for their eyes, these creatures eyes tend to be large with sideways, rectangular pupils. They are incapable of speech. The species name comes from the two Latin words meaning, “Speechless clan”. This is because these creatures travel in large groups and are (as stated) incapable of speaking. They often sign with their hands but have an extremely limited vocabulary.
