Re-vamped, Re-worked, Re-Built, New species and new major Canon Characters available. Come take a look at the new Dragon Kin!
In the beginning the races of magic and man were one. Everything lived in harmony with the world and magic flowed through all beings.
From this serenity two magic races emerged the Dragon Kin and the Beast Kin. The Dragons with the power over the elements and the earth. The Beasts with the power over the animals who roamed the earth. For a time the two magic races lived along side the mortals who evolved to populate the planet. They lived in a relative peace the two magic races taking the young humans under their wing and teaching them about the earth and all her wonders.
It was not long before the humans who were never satisfied with what they had wanted more. They wanted what the Kin had, they wanted the magic and the power the beings of the earth possessed. From the human race came a breed of men who wanted with a passion so great it changed there very souls. They sought to have the magic which flowed in the veins of the Kin. They rose up as a group and slew the first dragon. When the blood of the beast touched their lips it changed them, made them into a race of darkness, a race who craved the blood of the Kin. They called themselves the Magi.
The Magi unable to resist the temptation of Kin blood separated from the human race and created a kingdom of their own. Their drive in life is to attain more power. The Kin are their prey, the humans their slaves, they seek to rule the Kingdom of Arcadia.
Thus began the war between the Kin and the Magi. The Magi became the hunters and the once protectors became the hunted.
The Dragons and the Beasts went their separate ways. The Dragons hiding their nature, in a form not their own. The Beasts moving into the wilds and keeping from the sight of man. Both races took on the form of man to keep hidden, too keep their races safe, from those they once protected.
1000 years have passed and humans have changed, they have grown and forgotten that once the Kin were their teachers and guardians. The humans fear the Kin and the powers they possess. The Order of the Slayers, has risen. Hunting, once a drive for money, has become an obsession for genocide. The destruction of anything not human, Dragon, Magi and Beast alike.
Hunted on both sides by man and Magi the Kin are being driven to extinction. Their one hope is an age old prophecy of the Golden Dragon and the Lord of Beasts.
The Prophecy
One of the Earth and one of the Beasts
Emerge in tormented grief
When darkness creeps
When the blood is thin
When Midnight and Midday meet
When shadows and dust remain.
Fire will raze the sky,
Blood will boil from the land
A union between forbidden bloods
Hunted becomes the hunter
The fate of all in shattered light
Eclipse the darkness or ruin.
The time of the prophecy is upon Arcadia. Time to choose a side.
Hunter or Hunted?
