The grocery store was out of Zebra again!
A hundred years ago, supernaturals 'didn't exist'. They were figments of your imagination, things that went bump in the night and tall tales that you told your children. Not anymore.
Supernaturals were in hiding, laying dormant and blending into the background in order to protect themselves, but during WWII, the need for their abilities became so great that hiding was no longer an option. The government had long been aware of the existence of supernaturals, and when Hitler was killed or died and the accounts of the death were so unusual they couldn't be explained, people started asking questions. Keeping supernaturals under wraps became impossible and so the different races of supernaturals exploded across the lands. Just like any other minority, supernaturals weren't welcomed with open arms. Many were persecuted and some even killed for being 'different'. There was segregation and hate crimes and many churches labeled being supernatural an abomination before God. Supernaturals had to register with the government and were prosecuted if they were found without their registration cards. Many supernaturals went back into hiding.
During the sixties, however, in the height of civil rights and love, peace and harmony, being supernatural didn't seem so bad in the grand scheme of things. There were vast civil rights movements and eventually laws were passed protecting supernaturals the same as other minority groups. Still, not everyone accepted people who were 'different'. Many supernaturals migrated to areas where they were more widely accepted.
Some may have moved right next door to you.
In Toronto, Ontario, Canada, moving into an apartment with a new roommate might mean that you're sharing a living space with a werewolf. Or maybe your son's new kindergarten teacher is an elemental. Or that girl you have a crush on in Algebra just might already know because she's a telepath. Things are still a struggle when it comes to acceptance and not everyone is happy about the path that the world is taking towards equality.
Where do you stand? Which side will you take?

Imagine if Peter Pettigrew hadn't betrayed the Potters. The Order was already on the brink of defeat, a new death reported every day. What would happen if Voldemort remained unchecked, unable to find the one he claims as his rival? The Order lies in shambles, most of its members dead or in hiding. And slowly, Voldemort's vision of a perfect society began to take form ... Muggleborns were expelled from Hogwarts, as well as 'impure' halfbloods with too much Muggle blood. The Ministry was taken over, piece by piece, and while Dumbledore held onto Hogwarts with his fingertips, even that has been stripped and remade ...
Currently, Dumbledore's heath is ailing and time is coming near when he will depart ... Bellatrix Lestrange has been named Minister for Magic following the disgrace of the Malfoy family ... Bill Weasley is starting his own Resistance group to run counter to the Order ... Sirius Black struggles to maintain his role as Order spy ... Severus Snape eyes the halls of Hogwarts with envy ... and that's just the beginning
So pick up a journal, join in, and see where Interitio takes you … interitio ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) quies linia
