Regardless of what they were called, they appeared, and it became evident that humanity would have to adapt to a new way of life infiltrating their own
In Chicago, the city was divided. Those who cared, those who didn't, those who didn't know any better. And the factions live on a knife edge, waiting for the day that that everything changes.
It is not that day. Yet.

The Sapphire Domain, currently ruled by King Willem, houses a diverse set of the talented.
There are few beguilers, but the other talents abound: elating, firestarting, flight, healing, moving, necromancy, reading, seeing, shapeshifting, and storing.
A new generation of gamesmen join the ranks each year, replacing those who were lost.
Who are you? A great powerful gamesman? Or are you merely a pawn? |
