Magic has been one of the best kept secrets of our time. It comes in all shapes and forms, but has always been considered dangerous. Because of this, it has also been feared, causing many to suffer at the hands of those that wished to see magic users rid from this world. To counter this crisis, a secret guild was born. At first it was merely a small group, a name whispered in the shadows, but over the centuries it has grown into a full fledged organization ─ one capable of keeping up with modern times. The Magic Eye ─ usually only referred to as The Eye ─ grew from men and women swearing their lives to protect the secret of magic, to a network of individuals that not only protected the secret, but wielded it as well. Like any magic trick, it is done in plan sight, using only distraction as a way to keep others ignorant to what's really going on. This is how The Eye has managed to remain throughout the centuries, taking on the appearance of something much more innocent in recent years.

Magic has become a lost art, a talent that some try to ignore. But fake magic ─ street magic ─ has become a source of entertainment. Grand shows and extravagant acts are performed by those claiming to be magicians, while usually containing no real magic at all. This is The Eye's weapon, blending real magic with pretend for not only protection, but gain as well.

Everyone loves a good show, and The Eye is willing to give just that, in the form of a street magic troupe. Individuals from all walks of life, whether magical or otherwise, have come together to learn an art form that requires skill and illusion to confuse and bewilder the masses. Not just for entertainment though, The Eye also deals a great handful of justice to those who are found deserving of such. An invisible Robin Hood, The Eye acts as judge, jury, and executioner to the wealth and property of unworthy individuals. While the Guild may never know the reason for their target, they can rest assured that The Eye has deemed them unfit to profit from their acts.

The Eye's entertainers are a loyal group, though there will always be questions. The most common one being: Who is The Eye? But a more interesting question might also be proposed: What is The Eye's true purpose now?
