THE DANGER LOCKED AWAY
THEY'RE BREAKING FREE

THE BANISHED

Long before mankind became the powerful race it is today, there was magic. Humans called themselves the Praesidium. They lived in fear of the race known as the Praedone, a powerful race of magic, who wielded a powerful magic known as Mavni. They were constantly at war with the Praesidium, and have drove them to near extinction several times before.

The Praesidium have had enough of the Praedone. They devised a plan to strike, but they had to wait for just the right time: the day of the Sun's Void, a solar eclipse in which the Praedone would temporarily lose their Mavni in order to recharge, even more powerful than before.

Once The Dark Void Sun occured, the Praesidium struck the Praedone Foretress. Very few Praesidium survived, as the Praedone were powerful even without Mavni. But the human's stole the Omnductrine's (Praedone Ruler) spellbook. The Praedisium used the spellbook to cast a devistating effect of the Praedone fortress, causing them to mysteriously disappear. The Praedisium weren't aware of how they did it or where they went, but many believed they were sent to an interdimensional prison.

What the Praesidium don't know is that not all Praedone disappeared.





The Praedone were a once powerful race before being sent away by the Praesidium. They are known for their powerful magic known as Mavni, generated by a The Sun's Void. The Praedone know they're a powerful race, and that's why they don't let anything get in the way of their path of destruction.

Mavni weakens among the Praedone every once in awhile, so they recharge their Mavni during the Sun's Void, aka a solar eclipse.

The Praedone were banished by the Praedisium nearly 2500 years ago. It is unknown where they are, but many scholars believe that the Praedisium may have sent them to an interdimensional prison, as evidence is found in ancient carvings made by the Praedisium. So far scholars don't have a clue that some Praedone remained, and neither did the Praedisium. Nobody is worried of their return...at least they think they shouldn't worry.





The left over Praedone have been trying to reclaim Mavni for centuries.

Every Dark Void they build up their Mavni, and store it in a book. The Praedone hope to get the book as powerful as the Omnductrine's book in order to reverse the spell the Praesidium cast years ago. They live among today's humans, but whenever they see a human, they can't help but feel the hatred they had toward Praesidium.

But 2500 years is a long time. All descendants of the remaining Praedone have built up just enough Mavni to reverse the spell and bring back the banished. On a Solar Eclipse, the Praedone are freed, right into the streets of New York City. And their revenge is only just beginning...



On the day of the attack, there was an artifact, carved on with in a strange language. Paleographers have spent two years trying to decrypt the strange message, all while the world governments fought the uncontrollable Mavni of the returned Praedone, losing the fight. Several countries of the world have sworn allegiance to the Praedone, or have been destroyed trying to fight Until one night, the artifact was deciphered. It was a prophecy that told of seven chosen ones, destined to defeat the Praedone on the next night of the next Sun's Void over New York, but they had to be born on the night of the Praedone's return.

Governments denied the artifact, calling it silly. But that didn't stop people. Government officials who've gone rogue were determined to find those children, to raise them to their fullest potential, in hope that maybe they could stop the Praedone.

You are one of those children...
