Premise

Welcome to the Brightstar Reserve, nestled in the Beartooth Mountains of Montana. It's employees are responsible for a large and diverse group of beasts, beings, and plant life. Located across Hercinia Lake from the small, unincorporated municipality of Snowcap, the Reserve is far from the unrest in cities like New York, Salem, Chicago, and Monterey, just as everyone likes it.

However, just like the latest trends, politics and discord never seem to stay confined to the cities for long. Beings and those with cross-species lineage are pushing back against generations of regulations and even deeper entrenched suspicions. Leaving one to ask, what does it mean to be magical?

Plot Point: Amirah Head

Heather has been kind enough to pick up on a plot point, so I wanted to put some more information out there so that everyone can have their characters pitch in on Tabitha's journal.
Amirah Head hosts Counter Hex, a national call-in show on the WIN that discusses controversial issues. She is staunchly pro-Being and very outspoken in general, and not usually in a nice way. There have been rumors that she's part-Being herself, but no one has ever found her on the Registry. Either it's just that—a rumor—or maybe Amirah Head isn't her real name.

She's currently publicly butting heads with Javier Dominco, who is a Politician rumored to be headed toward next President of the AWC. He is not openly anti-Being, but his Platform contains plenty of anti-Being propaganda framed as protecting the average citizen from the dangers of Beings and their too-powerful abilities.
Let me know if you have questions or ideas on how you wanna ad lib what your characters knows about these folks for discussion. (As long as it sticks with these basic facts, you're probably fine.)
