A Swords Sheath

In the desolate and barren South, an empire is always in turmoil. The Empire of Dragons.  Majestic and mystical beings, dragons possess a great power that is both astonishing and terrifying. Their voracious flames devour all life in their path. A decade-long conflict between the North and South was ignited by a story that had been long forgotten. A legend born in the dawn of time. The dragons, once ferocious, were now miserable creatures, cursed with a heart of stone, suffering the agony of eternal cold. The torment eats away at their very essence, both body and soul. Even Irish, was no exception. Nightmares slowly gnawed at his sanity as time passed.  Overwhelmed by despair, Irish sought a flicker of hope, a release from his suffering. The moment their eyes met, the world around him seemed to tilt on its axis. A delicate, ethereal creature, its pristine white fur as soft as cloud fluff, carried a sweet, airy fragrance, offered solace to his weary soul.  The journey of a fragile soul through a chaotic world, searching for the radiant light of peace.

He declared, “Today, I, Han Muye, will traverse the sky. I want to see who among the gods dares to invade this mortal world.”

This is the story of Adam, a werewolf in the world of "Werewolf: The Apocalypse," set in modern-day Los Angeles. Adam is an Albino Metis, a form of werewolf that is considered an abomination by most because they are born in their werewolf war form. Adam has another problem: he was raised in a lab, undergoing many experiments before having his first shift and being able to take human form. He was saved by a powerful sorceress named Faith. Faith raised Adam with two other adopted children, Adam’s adoptive sister Lucy, another sorcerer, and Adam’s adoptive brother Jessy, a boy with psychic powers. This is not a world were werewolves are underdogs, they are killing machines created by Mother earth, Gaia. They are in a desperate battle against the coming end, using all they have. They are shamans, tricksters, warriors, judges and storytellers amongst the shifting races. above all, they might be Gaia's hope or doom. Adam, in his war form, looks a lot like an albino Anubis, and in his wolf form, he looks like an Egyptian jackal. This form makes Faith and many others think that Adam is of the Silent Strider bloodline, a bloodline connected to Anubis, the Egyptian god. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A few notes. First, the story is set in modern-day Los Angeles. This is a World of Darkness version, so many places would be different. Any character that resembles people in real life is accidental; I do not plan on using characters from the real world. All characters are fictional. Adam is bisexual with a preference toward more feminine appearances. He is mostly confused as he is a little antisocial, but there is the possibility of relationships or hookups. Adam is the product of experiment so he might be a lot stronger than what a normal werewolf would be but still that isn’t much in the world of godlike monsters. As for the story, I am using world of darkness setting. This story will feature characters and rules from the world of darkness with a few changes but all rights are reserved for Paradox and white wolf. This story is for mature audiences and it will contain: violence, sexual content, drug use, cannibalism themes, and many other mature content. Please take care.

Artie had lived her whole life feeling like a joke. Whether it came to her full name, her parents ‘abandoning’ her and her next door neighbours taking her in, or finding out that her lover was part of a cult and was cheating on her. Said lover then stabbed her. It felt like she just couldn’t catch a break. So when she found herself in a puddle of her own blood, staring up at a fake painted sky, she could only find humour in the situation, and prayed that the next life was kinder. Only she woke up. In the same body, with the same stab wound, only in a world full of magic, swords, and a dead King Arthur? Yup. The round table existed, the knights existed, and so did everyone of legend that she’d heard about as a child. Only it was the beginning of their tales. Nothing had happened yet, except the formation of Camelot, the crowning of the King, and then the sudden death of the King of Legend, King Arthur Pendragon. She would have thought this was another cruel joke if everyone wasn’t wandering around in mourning clothes. If this was a practical joke, it wasn’t a very funny one. Artie was tired. She’d already spent almost a decade working as a police officer, and then a detective, so she felt like she had earned her peace. Especially after all the shit she’d been put through, but someone had different plans. And Artie’s life wasn’t quite done yet. In fact, it seemed like in the eyes of the creatures of this world, this was where she was always meant to be. The time she spent getting her ass handed to her in the other dimension? Just a warm up. And now she was expected to just…go along with what everyone else wanted her to do? Including magical beings who were responsible for taking her from one dimension to another. Artie felt like she was in over her head, even if there were several concerned, attractive knights around her. She wasn’t sure if she was going to run away from all the new responsibilities, or embrace them. She wasn’t a rule breaker by nature, but maybe now was the time to change?
