Welcome to Asheville, North Carolina!
Asheville has been proclaimed to be a "New Age Mecca" as well as "the new freak capital of the US". Most people overlook these statements made by the media, because most of Asheville's residents live there because it was named one of the top seven places to live in the US, it's location in the mountains and surrounding areas is ideal, and life moves at a slower pace in the South.
Little do people know that the first two statements are true, and Asheville has been rumored to sport some serious supernatural activity.
For many years supernatural creatures of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds have been migrating to this city in the Blue Ridge Mountains. None of them can quite put their finger on why they are drawn there, but there is a pull that they just can't ignore. Perhaps it has something to do with the convergence of all these different supernaturals, or maybe something darker is brewing underneath the city of Asheville.
Adds are every Wednesday and Sunday!

You think you know London, its streets and alleys like the creases of your palm. You don't know all its secrets. In its depths are places to buy amulets and tarot readings, a talisman that permits the wearer to manipulate luck hangs alongside bottles of herbs and demon's blood. Books so ancient the pages are tissue-thin jostle against postcards of buses and telephone boxes. There are bars where the clientele don't just find the dim light flattering, but downright necessary, and the smell of brimstone lingers in the nostrils. There are corners and recesses where magic isn't trickery or sleight of hand, but blood and bone and flesh and you might -- you might -- catch sight of feathers pure as snow and light, if you know where to go. If you know how to see. There's a pitched battle being fought for this other London and your London besides -- one in which every human in existence is being counted in a gamble for souls, Heaven and Hell trying to tip the scales and grave-faced Librarians holding them steady. And all the time, people go about their lives with a little pinch of something extra in a London you'll never see. |

❝Cʀᴇᴀᴛɪɴɢ ᴜɴɪᴛʏ ʙᴇᴛᴡᴇᴇɴ ᴘᴏᴡᴇʀᴇᴅs sɪɴᴄᴇ 2005!❞ This is the slogan for the Darwin Project, a highly controversial program creatured by United States Senator Edwin Pierce. Proposed as a way for the 'powered community' (as people with special abilities have come to be known) to unify more successfully than ever before, Project Darwin promised to be the crowning jewel of legislation for Senator Pierce. Pierce gloated about his program to the government and public alike, calling it "unrivaled legislature". Those in the powered community who wished to volunteer would simply have to relocate to Darwin. In doing so, they would receive jobs, housing, income, and free health care.
One small stipulation: each participate is required to enter into a marriage (designed by the program runners) and procreate quickly.
As more and more powereds have entered the program, they have realised that it's not as simple as it seems. The government dictate every part of their daily lives. None of the real details of the program have been disclosed to the general public, nor were they told to the participants who agree to join. But once you're in, you're in a hell of a fight to get out. And for many, this is going to prove to be a fight for their lives.
The program officials and Senator Pierce see nothing wrong, of course. After all, they're just following in Charles Darwin's footsteps for evolution. They're only giving it a little push.
