Apartments For Rent
VACANT. Djinn comes from extremely low beginnings, and he lived his entire life at the whim of more powerful people: an underground drug cartel. His masters have mostly used his unique skills to remove living obstacles from their path, and one of his unfortunate escapades was The Beast's suspected crime. He's been sent to Bellum by his superiors, who he would not consider denying, to find blackmail information on anyone in the building with the capacity to pay, or with connections to the Mafia, putting Red Riding Hood, The Big Bad Wolf and The Boy Who Learned Fear firmly on his radar.

VACANT. In all of his life, The Boy Who Learned Fear has never been scared. It worried his parents to no end, and they took him to countless psychiatrists and specialists in his childhood. When he finally left home, they were glad to see him go, because others feared him, even though he feared nothing. He's a low-level member of the Giancomo Family, though not related through blood, and he's been sent to Bellum to keep an eye on Red Riding Hood. He hasn't caught on to The Big Bad Wolf yet, but he knows there are treasures to be found in the building, including Djinn and Dracula.

VACANT. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS.

Premise:
There is an apartment building in New York called 'Bellum Letale.' Most people ignore its auspicious name, though they would be advised to pay more attention to its meaning.

It is a strange building.

Every man, woman and child in the building is a reincarnated fable, the stories told to human children for hundreds, sometimes thousands of years. Once very real, the fables began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. They have all been reborn in human forms, though their essence remains, waiting to be awakened at the right time, in the right place.

Now is the time - Bellum Letale is the place. As their lives connect and weave together, as they follow their petty desires and long-held grudges, they are, all of them, on the brink of disaster. Their Landlord knows their every move, and the building they live in seems to have an agenda of its own. People are tortured, people die, people plot behind each other's backs and sneak around and cheat. They love, they fight, they draw blood. This is not the fairy tale you remember being told.
