The armies of Heaven and Hell do vicious battle in the shadows of the modern world. Humans are largely ignorant of the conflict. Most of us shamble through our daily lives, ping-ponging back and forth from our safe suburban homes to our soulless cubicle farms without the slightest inkling that there are monsters among us. Most, but not all.

            As the War becomes more ferocious and the world grows smaller, humans are beginning to figure things out. Some of us were victims of some nightmarish Hellspawn. Others were called to be healers by our Lord. There are those who were in the very wrong place at the wrong time and simply saw too much. Regardless of how we discovered the truth, we are forced to make a decision.

Hellspawn stalk the night…

            Humanity is not alone. Immortal Elves spend their eternal sleepless nights in the torment of immortality without rest. Vampires hunt the living, stealing the very life from their victims. Werewolves, driven mad with Lunacy, eke out solitary existences in an attempt to hide the beast within. Hellspawn, monsters crafted from the darkest souls among humanity hunt and kill in the name of their demonic masters.

            These monstrous races, these Others share our role as pawns in a conflict beyond the ken of mortal beings; a War between Heaven and Hell. Bound by the Law of Contagion, the mystical principle that two things that interact with each other are forever connected, these pawns are dragged into the War with no hope of true escape. A person may try to remain neutral, but once the veil of ignorance is lifted, it remains so.

Will you choose a side?
