Next time you're on the bus and refuse to give up your seat
to the old woman with her bags of groceries and she spits a
curse or two at you, don't believe that when you then twist
your ankle getting off at your stop, or get caught out by an
unexpected bout of rain, that it is mere coincidence.

The supernatural and the Immortal are real. They exist in
taken forms, trying to survive in a world that even they
don't fully comprehend—a world that is too busy to
remember them. All the while, they have to simultaneously
try and make rent and avoid harassment from the powerful
modern Gods that rule our television sets and corporate systems.

And don’t think for a minute that the monsters and demons
have it any better. Sure, they don't depend on the belief
and fear of human beings to sustain them, but nor are they
as indestructible as their Godly cousins. What's worse is that
some time ago, at the very top of the ranks of theBUREAU - the
agency charged as the protector of all preternatural
creatures – there was a split in power.

Now theBUREAU has a genuine nemesis--theFORCE,
which holds the central belief that the only beings that
warrant protection are mortals. Aside from the superhuman
efforts of MORIARTY, the departmental head of the entire
BUREAU, and the Mayor's advisor, MASSRI, there is
very little standing in the way of an all-out war.

And as if the tense situation was not bad enough, a series of
murders closely resembling sacrificial worship have begun to
plague the "unusual" citizens of the city. As of now, the
murders are being interpreted as the actions of a lunatic -
but, they should truly be seen as the crackling embers that
would generate a chaos, unparalleled.
