Supernatural beings that hide in the shadows of the human world. Divided into four races (listed below), which are determined by physical and supernatural attributes. They are born, not created, and possess the same lifespans as humans, though they can be more difficult to kill. All Daemonstri have four retractable fangs and a variety of abilities.
Daemonstri race with traits akin to angels, witches, and vampires. Abilities include supernatural grace, magic-wielding, and bewitchment. Serafi are ethereally beautiful and can be identified by a soft "inner glow" of the skin, which is called a halo. They consume blood, but not as a main source of sustenance (more like a daily vitamin). They have a minor allergy to sunlight that causes their eyes to burn.
Daemonstri race with traits akin to demigods and vampires. Abilities include supernatural strength, speed, and agility. Nefili are naturally athletic and battle-hungry. They consume blood solely for curative purposes, and as a result, can fall victim to blood addictions. A supernatural strength of willpower allows them to create mental shields, which can be used to prevent bewitchments.
Volkari
Daemonstri race with traits akin to werewolves and vampires. Abilities consist of shapeshifting, telepathy (with other Volkari), and superior senses (including night vision), as well as supernatural strength, speed, and agility. Volkari consume blood solely for curative purposes, and are also susceptible to blood addictions. The bite of a Volkari is fatal to members of the other Daemonstri races.
Inferni
Daemonstri race with traits akin to demons and vampires. Abilities consist of flight via wings, *partial* shapeshifting, and supernatural strength, speed, agility, and sensory perception. Their thirst for blood is stronger than that of the other races, and they consume great amounts of blood and raw meat each day. Exposure to sunlight can cause Inferni to "wither" and become paralyzed in a sleep-like state.

Someone whose parents are of two different Daemonstri races.
Someone whose parents are of the same Daemonstri race. Note: Serafi are always purebloods.
A plant with a black blossom that is toxic to all Daemonstri races.
An oligarchical Daemonstri institution that presides over the Western Hemisphere of the world, acting as the lawmaking and justice authority of Daemonstri populations within its sphere. Made up of thirteen Ministers, including a Prime Minister.
A Daemonstri monarchy that presides over the Eastern Hemisphere of the world, acting as the supreme authority of Daemonstri populations within its sphere. It is the oldest Daemonstri institution and also the most supreme, so even the Ministry must answer to the ruling monarch. The current First Family is part of the Dalca dynasty.
A worldwide Daemonstri organization whose purpose is to defend and protect the races from inner and outer threats. Members are known as keepers. The Vigil has a number of divisions based on location (Europe, North America, Asia, etc.), and each division has a High Keeper, who is a member of the Council of High Keepers.
Daemonstri-kind has an "order of genetic dominance," which is a system used to determine the racial and blood status of a person.
(less dominant → more dominant)
Serafi → Nefili → Volkari → Inferni
This simply means that there is only one way in which Serafi offspring can be produced, and four ways in which Inferni offspring can be produced. The variations are listed below.
There is one way in which Serafi can procreate—by breeding with other Serafi. This is what makes them the "purest of the pure."
Serafi + Serafi = Serafi (pureblood)
There are two ways in which Nefili can procreate:
Serafi + Nefili = Nefili (halfblood)
Nefili + Nefili = Nefili (pureblood)
There are three ways in which Volkari can procreate:
Serafi + Volkari = Volkari (halfblood)
Nefili + Volkari = Volkari (halfblood)
Volkari + Volkari = Volkari (pureblood)
There are four ways in which Inferni can procreate:
Serafi + Inferni = Inferni (halfblood)
Nefili + Inferni = Inferni (halfblood)
Volkari + Inferni = Inferni (halfblood)
Inferni + Inferni = Inferni (pureblood)

Fallout: Vault X
An original novel set in the Fallout universe, written to be accessible to all, featuring unique people and places. Vol.II. out now Fallout: Vault X tells the story of John. A vault dweller, who spent every day of his twenty five years underground. Like his father, and his father before him. Proud to live in the last remaining bastion of humanity, all that survived The Great War of the atomic age. Hidden deep below the surface of the earth, toiling under brutal conditions. Year after year, decade upon decade. All to expand into the natural cave system the Vault occupied, building for the future. However, John knew what his forefathers did not, that everything he’d been taught was a lie. After finishing school at the age of ten, John received his standard issue pipboy. An arm mounted personal computer, worn by everyone in the Vault. Used to coordinate the relentless pace of expansion, needed to work as an apprentice. To learn the craft that would be his life’s work. A noble calling to ensure a future for all that remained of the human race. A quirk of fate saw John equipped not with the crude, clunky, pipboy model his father wore. That almost everyone around him wore. His looked smaller, sleeker, finished in a jet black sheen. And capable of doing far more than its drab counterparts. The world above had been ravaged by atomic flames, yet life clung to its bones. The Red Valley fared better than most in the century since the bombs fell. The clean water and rich soil protected by rolling hills. All spared from direct strikes, for the most part. Life survived here. Trees spawned from charred ground, misshapen, green leaves turned red. Along with simple crops, grown wild at first, then cultivated by the survivors. The scavengers of the old world were inventive, hardy people. All determined to rebuild in the ruins of a world they never knew. In the decades that passed settlements emerged. They grew, spreading along the valley floor. Reclaiming the pre-war remnants of the once industrialised heartland. Salvaging the robotic wonders of a bygone age to build their walls and work their fields. To protect them in the dark of the wasteland. But such things are uncommon in this world, and the rarer something is, the greater its value. And the worth of pre-war technology had not gone unnoticed. The last, real, power in this world rested in the mechanised hands of The Brotherhood of Steel. Forged from the mortally wounded old world military. The Brotherhood used its access to the weapons made for a conflict no one won to strike out into the wastes. Men and women were equipped with advanced armour, aerial transportation, high grade weaponry. Accompanied by the training, strength, and will, to put them to use. They established chapters and set up outputs far and wide. All dedicated to a single purpose. To ensure the technology left abandoned by its long dead creators didn’t fall into the wrong hands. Namely, any hands that were not their own. This is the world John escaped into. A place of horrors brought forth from atomic fire. A place where survival meant battling against the darkness. Fighting a war each day to get to the next. And war...war never changes

Glitch
I always dreamed of being one of the Awakened, one of the heroes that fights back the Insanity on his own terms. They’re always pictured driving the newest cars, wearing the latest clothes, using the best gene-mods and implants. They’re supposed to be more than just human. At least, that’s what I thought until I Awakened. Now my life is a mess of corporate intrigue, shifty politics, cyberzombies and at least one group of revolutionaries whose ideas are sounding better every day. I never wanted to be the punk that brought the system down, but the temptation to just glitch out is growing by the minute. Glitch is a Cyberpunk LitRPG set in a near future where some people are given abilities that allow them to do things that no normal human could ever do. This fiction is written, maintained and owned by Edgar Malboeuf. Copyright 2018

Shard
Wherever you go, whether it be be a bustling metropolis or wild and untamed lands, sentients of every race and creed have some sort of belief in the supernatural. Every culture has stories of mighty beings, incomprehensible in both nature and noticeably, malice. Though many once wished for these stories to be true, they eventually lost much of the significance they once held; yet, the people who told the tales in the first place left them there as lessons. Vital lessons, and more importantly, warnings. Because even though humanity and it's allies had taken to the heavens and prospered like never before, their actions had caused sleeping dragons to stir. Across the universe, a bitter war between mortal and spiritual forces is being waged. Humanity now faces extinction, and if we don't play our cards right, extinction is all but certain. But even though their adversaries have veritable gods among them, humanity still has a few tricks up it's sleeve...
