Background Story
Countless folktales have been told of the creatures that roam the night. The legend speaks of these inhuman creatures that stalk the night and kill off people. They do so by drinking the soul of any individual they come across, or in other words their blood. They are blood thirsty monsters that have power and strength that far surpasses any regular human being. Countless stories of the past have labeled them as monstrous beings created by the devil. However, that’s just it; they are stories of the past. Present day, the stories of these beings still continue, but as time goes on they seem to have become less destructive in their tales. There are romances between them and humans. The stories themselves develop and these characters that were once marked as cursed beings now have personality and emotion.
Much of the books writing are made up garbage, false information, but much of it is true. Yes, the creatures, or vampires, do in fact exist. They look as human as just any other person in the world, with a few minor setbacks. They have emotions and not many of them are blood thirsty as in the tales, though this really all depends. They learn to control their thirst starting from when they are turned as to not cause chaos in the human’s society later on.
The vampires have their own society just like the humans do. This is not just a single individual place, they make home where ever they may be. They walk around with the humans at night time, though tend to keep their distance and not interact with them (depending on the person). Humans and vampires, they are both animals just like every other living creature in this world. Just like animals of different species only converse with their own species, vampires do the same. It is easier that way.
The vampire coven does not follow the laws of the humans that their government has set up, but they do have many just as similar. The entire coven is ruled by three vampires (Lords). If one steps down from power or passes on a new vampire who is deemed worthy and responsible enough will be chosen by the remaining Lords. The Lords are seen as the most powerful in the entire clan, though it is hard to say if this is true or not. Still, they are to be given the highly respect.
Just like in any society the rules of the coven must be followed or punishment as high as death will be dealt out. Most of the vampires that make up the coven understand the rules and do not have any problem. Of course there are those that insist on breaking them or simply break away from the coven and do whatever they please. It is understandable if a vampire wishes to ‘take a break’ and fall off the map so to speak from the coven, many vampires have done this in the past. They need time to themselves to get away from everything or enjoy life. It is not against law for their kind to interact with the humans; with so many humans it is almost impossible to not encounter them. If a vampire loses their way and gives into their blood and constantly kills and draws attention death will fall upon them, as is the law of the coven.
The current and previous lords have done their best to make sure that their kind and the humans co-exist well. Blood is still taken from the humans, but not enough to kill them. With the countless novels that contain true information on them, anyone of them could easily be found out and their existence known to all humans. Humans that might have suspected anything have never been believed by others. The stories themselves that give so much information on their race are also what keep them alive. The humans believe them to be nothing more than a myth, which works in their favor.
Plot
Countless centuries the vampires have hidden their existence, so to say, from the humans. However, problems develop in the coven when several vampires break ties with them. Those that make up the rebellion no longer wants to have to hide from the humans. They are sick of the laws forced upon them by the coven. Some even speak revenge on the coven for more personal matters. It has been argued that the vampires of the coven have the power to do great things and yet they choose to waste it.
Time is passing and the rebellion has not seemed to be much of a threat, but with their numbers growing the coven lords are becoming more uneasy about the situation. Werewolves, eternal enemies of the vampires, are taking notice of the vampires changes, becoming angered over the matter. Now in the summer of 2018, New York City, the rebel vampire’s coven has existed for several short years. The group has kept a rather low profile so it is unknown to the Lords as to how large their numbers have grown. The humans still do not know of vampire’s existence as murders happen around the world every day. Their lives of working and going to school are their regular schedule. With werewolves and vampires still sworn enemies, how will things turn out? What will happen? Is any human safe anymore?
