Atra Vorago;[/color] The Demon Pit, The Abyss, The Nether Realm. It has been called all these things and far worse. Atra Vorago is without a doubt the heartland of humanities deepest and darkest fears. Vorago is home to numerous beings of darkness and the vices of the human soul that range from the wrathful demons to the unknown.
Enclosed by the black, volcanic mountain range called Hell’s Spine, Atra Vorago is all but inaccessible to mortal man without aid. That said, no human has ever returned after crossing the treacherous peaks, at least not alive or with their mind and soul intact.
Lux Terra;[/color] Land of Light, Haven, Sanctuary. All these names and more were given to the land of Lux Terra by her proud and enduring people. It is the domain of humanity, a place of peace and contentment, a place where the land is fertile and diverse with vast open fields, deep forests, rolling hills, towering mountains and the frozen tundra to the far north.
Lux Terra is without a doubt humanities haven, and yet that being said some humans saw fit to change that, whether through design or accident. Summoners and Arch-Magus’ they are men and women who have broken the fiends of AtraVorago to their will. Enslaved and degraded, some of these fiends have broken free, killing their enslavers and now roam free in the lands of humanity.
Crepusculum Pugnaculum; The Twilight Realm, The Crossroads The Wasteland. Those are the names given to the barren stretch of land smothered in ash from the forever, active volcanoes of Hell’s Spine. It is a desolate no-man’s-land where the sky is choked with ash fall and volcanic cloud, a place where the only light seen is the hazy twilight on a semi-clear day.
The Twilight Realm attained its name from the only structure found in that barren land. A once great fortress that may have once been the stronghold of ages past in the time of the war of The Gods. Aside from that, the harsh and desolate place is also home to the half-breeds, beings of mixed heritage born through the acts of their mothers or fathers in the human lands. Outcasts to both Lux Terra and Atra Vorago either for being too human or inhuman depending on where one stands they dwell in the only place where they are not chased or ridiculed by others.
Half-breeds have mad their home in the Twilight Fortress and survive well enough through scavenging the surrounding countryside as well as the lands either side of them. Though few in number the half-breeds have survived numerous attempts to cull them out of existence by factions on both sides who view them as defilements and continue to live on it relative peace despite their harsh environment.
------
In the progressing years it has been said that creatures of the dark have been steadily encroaching upon the barrier that is Crepusculum, at the same time it has been said that Summoners and Arch-Magus’ have been calling forth more and more demons and creatures of the dark breaking them to their will.
Enslavement of Demons, their cohorts and half-breeds had long been outlawed in Luxlucis after the demons had sent half-breeds they used as envoys to hunt down and slaughter the enslavers, their families and dozens of others. Yet despite that there were still a few who practiced the forbidden law.
Some of the stronger more powerful demons are capable of crossing through to Luxlucis undeterred by the light. It was those demons and those which broke the enslaving spells cast by Summoners. They wander still in the land of light but keep to the dark places and prey upon the weak. Some even steal away humans for their own pleasure, sometime resulting in the half-breeds.
Something stirs in the land and drives the land to one end an end unseen by any and all. The Demon King has gone missing and Summoners have returned in force, many of them corrupt, there have also been reports of the undead walking the land, shades and spirits of dark and vile intentions that do not call Vorago home. Where they come from it is unknown except that they desire nothing but to kill and harm…
-----------
The three lands are the three domains of the world. The dark and unseen things like demons and black sorcerers and those of dark and unfriendly motives. Those of Crepusculum are neither light nor dark, they are half-breeds and outcasts, beings with no true place in the world drifting between the two opposing places.
There is no limit to what you can be…

Name: Sparks/Sparky (Her true name is hers to give when she choose to)
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Race: Half-breed—Demon/Human
Place of Origin: Crepusculum
Appearance: Sparks or Sparky stands at 5’10” her build is supple and strong. Her skin is a light olive colour that sometimes looks almost gilded; her eyes are a deep dark green, the kind of green that can mesmerize an unwary man. Her hair is a rich copper colour like newly minted copper pennies and laced with the occasional strands of black and gold.
The only time her appearance changes, is when she reveals her true form, her half demon form. In this form she has a pair of horns that curve backwards, reaching out past the back of her skull for two inches. The horns are not very prominent, starting just in front of and a little up from her ears, curving over then and continuing back. They are to thicker then two fingers and golden along the shaft with black tips.
She also grows a tail that is equal in length to her body plus an extra two feet. The tail I slender and whip like ending with webbing like a feather. She also gains the use of her wings with are surprisingly feathered rather then typically webbed. The feathers of her wings are black as midnight and edged with gold.
Armor/Clothing: Sparky generally likes to wear black leather pants set with black metal plating along the outer side of her thighs. She also wears calf high boots and a black long-sleeved tunic. She also wears a heavy deep hooded cloak. She also wears a single black metal shoulder guard held in place by two leather straps that attach to her belt in two places. On her hands she wears a pair of black metal plated, leather gauntlets
Weapons: Three sectioned staff made of dark metal, a blade the length of her forearm and a yew longbow with quiver and silver tipped arrows.
Magic:
Transformation:- Sparky can change her appearance between demon half-breed and human with ease. It is a useful ability when she wanders from time to time into Luxlucis allowing her to pass unhindered by many though she is still regarded with suspicion.
Flame Mastery:- Sparky can control the element of fire as easily as breathing. There is no general limit to what she can do with fire magic except what she can endure physically and mentally.
Dark Sword:- Sparky creates a sword of darkness as solid and sharp as any metal blade. The weapon exists for so only as long as it is needed. The weapon is indestructible and Sparky only ever calls it when she is in need of the weapon.
History: Sparky has lived a very interesting and often unstable life moving between the three domains as freely as a bird. Little is really known about her however. Sparky keeps much about her past to herself including who her parents are, though it is generally thought that like most half-breeds her parents are unknown to her. This is the opposite in fact. Sparky knows exactly who they are and where they are… or rather she knows where one of her parents are. Her father is missing and the trail of her disappearance has led her into Luxlucis……
Other: Sparky has a tendency to ‘spark’ when she gets angry. It is generally seen as small bright little sparks that dance through her hair and sometimes across her skin.

Sparky sat upon the high stone wall that overlooked the barren stretch of land known as the wastes that encircled the Twilight Palace and sighed. She had had no word from her father in almost a month and her mother was refusing to heed her letters. Too long had she been waiting. Tired she was and worried. The tales of the specters and the enslavements of not just demons and half-breeds but things of Luxlucis as well. Unaccounted deaths and slaughterings of entire families in the night. Something beyond the norm was happening and she needed answers.
Folding her wings in so they rested tightly against her back as she jumped down off the wall upon the outside walking at a leasurly pace towards her destination. As she walked her appearance changed until she looked perfectly human. Only then did she unfolded her cloak which had been hanging, folded in the crook of her arm and swung it across her shoulders, Lifting the hood against the overcst sky. Her destination was the green lands of Luxlucis and for now her quest was to seek out her mother and perhaps some answers…
If there were some answers to be had…
