Mageia, A Collective Story.....
Thousand of years ago there was a Civilization that wield powers. Magnificence powers. Those who could bend minds to do their bidding. Those who could transform into any animal. Create storms and Hurricane just from a tiny thought. To even creating fire with their bare hands.
Over the years more and more people developed the ability to do something magnificence. With no reason for the sudden Powers or instructions on what to do with them.
Chaos Erupted.
With no rule or instruction these power lead to unrest and destruction. Fighting among those who were Powered. Some even sort out Man Kind to bewilder them with their new found powers. Man Kind saw these people as Gods. Children of Gods. Man Kind had a way of romancing the truth. They told tales of how the Great God came from the Sky with Wings and graced people with Powers to help make the world Flourish.
The Powered themselves were both humbled by their powers and greedy. Some took advantage. The days were dark and the world was unsettled.
The Powered evolved faster than man Kind. Though with such power came hungry for more. Fearing the free reign of so many Powered doing as they pleased with no one to stop them. The most powerful of the Powered took it upon themselves to entitle themselves as Leaders.
They became the Collective.
Four members of Four Rich and Powerful families.
The House of Tien- The Healers.
The House of IceWater- The Nature and Weather speakers.
The House of Magna- The Mindcrawlers.
The House of RavenWolf- The Animal walkers.
They lead over the Powered with strict but needed Rules and Law. Keeping the Powered in line. For a moment there was Rest.
They were worshipped as Gods. Gifted with Riches and land.
The House of IceWater brought sunshine and Rain, Keeping away the harsh Winters of the Northern Territories. They grew fields of Corn and Veg. Feeding hundreds. Lands Flourish.
The House of Tien healed the sick and helped to keep the Plagues away that swept the rest of the world.
The House of Magna helped keep peace with their Mindsweeping powers.
The House of RavenWolf became the Defenders.
However things don't always stay peaceful, like most things people fear what they don't understand.
As man kind grew and evolved, they got Jealous of a Superior Race of people. They saw the powered not as people but as Creatures. Abominations. Fear is a powerful thing and with Man Kinds leaders declaring war against the powered the world fell into darkness.
The Collective tried for peace. Promising that they would not use their power for harm. Though like most tales there was always more going on. One of the Powered believed that man kind were beneath him. He believed that they were born and lived to only serve those Powered. While the leaders of the Powered tried for peace. The Dark One went to war.
Millions died.
The balance of the world shifted and soon disaster struck.
The Battle of the Dark one ended in a s*******r on both side. Killing everything and everyone within Seven miles of the battlefield. Grass scorched with Ash. Trees burnt. Animals died as they choked to death from the Dark ones powers. Birds fell out of the sky. Man Kind died an horrific screaming death.....
The leaders, the Collective met with the leaders of Man Kind. They came to an agreement that peace would come but man kind were not done. They wanted the Collective and the powered to vanish forever. Knowing it was the price of peace the Collective agreed and retreated to a safe haven in the Scottish Highlands. Cutting themselves off from the world of man, they created their own world.
The World Of Mageia.
For hundred of years there was peace between Man Kind and The Powered.
Slowly over the years the war was forgotten for Man Kind has short memories.
The World of the Powered was believed to be the thing of Myth. Old wives tales old to keep children in line. Stories so far fetched that no one would believe them. Soon the world of man forgot the Powered.
Since then the Collective have done everything they could to keep it that way. Though things are never that easy. For where there is good. There is also bad.
And the Dark ones ideas spread through out the World of Mageia like a cancer. Filling the minds of the Powered.
The Collective wait.
They wait for the war that's going to come. The war of Wars. The war for the world.
