General Plot

After six girls accidentally discovered the barrier between this world and another, creatures of myth and magic began to spill through, slowly integrating themselves with this new world they'd discovered themselves in, lacking in memory of what their home world was like. The six girls, among others, found themselves endowed with supernatural powers, changed forever.

They have teamed up with the U.S. government and a few “friendly” creatures to create an agency called P.I.D.A. (Paranormal Intelligence & Defense Agency), whose purpose is to study the paranormal and capture those considered dangerous to the human population. The girls go about their daily lives, but they know things the government doesn't, and they work hard to keep their secrets safe. (P.I.D.A. is run by Lillie Mae Breaux. Adopt this Character!)

It has been years since the barrier’s breach in 2008. Citizens are mostly still unaware, though ever since various unexplainable catastrophes have occurred, no one knows how long their ignorance will last.

The Axium Corporation

Owned By: Shane Lasseter

Axium Corp was created by a sect of the U.S. government in the early 1900s. Its purpose was to do research and development concerning technology which would allow humans to become more advanced through splicing DNA. First, it was just between humans and humans with desired gene pools, but eventually it came to involve humans and animals. Believing that certain animal traits would one day make humans invincible, they made this their area of study.

The human subjects are taken by force and put through various experiments. Most subjects develop an intense hatred for the scientists and the organization, but the original subjects have not survived. They discovered that the younger the person is, the easier they will take to the new DNA, and so they began to take in infants, orphans and other such "undesirables" mostly.

Few experiments have ever survived having more than one animal DNA splicing. They are currently unable to use paranormal DNA, as P.I.D.A. works very hard to keep them from attaining it. Axium Corp is also not capable of retaining many paranormals, as it was not created to do so.

Currently, only a select few within the government are aware of the corporation’s existence, and P.I.D.A., though aware of it, is not certain of its location. Axium Corp is not completely aware of P.I.D.A.'s presence, aside from a few rumors, and therefore doesn’t know of its location either. Few experiments have ever escaped, and most, those who have a mind to defy the corporation because of the pain they suffer, are kept in tight confinement, sometimes even in cages.

Subjects who are, to put it bluntly, sane often call this place the 'Asylum'.

NPC Account

The NPC account is for RP Moderator use only, but it's purpose is to provide players with something to react to in a thread, to provide an extra presence, a mood, etc. RP Moderators can post in a thread simply to change the weather, or even to give you a creature to fight. The available instances are unlimited!

Sometimes the NPC account may post randomly, but if you would like to have something interesting occur in your thread, something even you weren't thinking about, PM the NPC account and request a post from it, linking to the appropriate thread.
