The Hunt, the Trial, and the Madness of War – Collaborative Fiction

The main continent of the planet Hellifyno, cultural and symbolic center of supernatural activity, is entering the heat of its hottest summer months. Across the land, temperatures average 85 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit, with some sweltering days hitting the 100s in the capital city of Consequence.

THE HUNT FOR BLOOD

Friday, July 9, was the day of the Great Fae Blood Hunt. This is an ancient event practiced by the mystical Fae, a magical race of extraordinary power. Locked away in another dimension for centuries, the Fae have recently broken through into the realms of reality and are making their presence known throughout the universe.

The blood hunt is traditionally a Fae event, where bounties are placed on the heads of certain creatures and individuals. Hunters are then paid these bounties if they can kill or capture those on the list. Occasionally, hunters may put themselves on these lists and become the hunted. If they survive the hunt, they receive these rewards themselves.

This year, the event expanded into an attempt by the Fae Overlords to slay the most powerful creatures and sow chaos and confusion throughout the universe. This was done by turning the event into a hybrid hunt, which used racial prejudice and bigotry to fan the flames of violence.

In Hellifyno, the Blood Hunt was specifically perpetrated by VC Enforcers, a warrior arm of the Hellifyno Vampire Council. Led by Elexin Harbindale, the VC Enforcers began with the best of intentions, seeking simply to register vampires and vampire hybrids across the planet. However, things took an insidious turn when they began to imprison and even exterminate the creatures they were supposed to protect.

Millions were injured or killed during the Blood Hunt, yet many of them were hunters or Fae trying to collect the bounties. Terrified of being ethnically cleansed, the hybrids banded together with others of sympathetic value to oppose hunters seeking to reap the bloody bounties.

The end result was that the Fae overlords were bankrupt, their armies decimated, and the populations they sought to weaken have now united against a common enemy.

ELECTION HARBINDALE

Early in the genesis of the Hellifyno government, Elexin Harbindale took over as head of this planet’s Vampire Council and liaison between the Hellifyno government and the greater council at large.

After the violence of the Blood Hunt subsided, Havoc, the Lord Executive of Hellifyno, ordered Elexin’s arrest for her alleged connection to the planning and execution of that event. This order was carried out by the newly appointed Grand Marshal Demaar Nobu, who reluctantly put the aged vampire in silver manacles and then, releasing him a moment later, escorted him to a cell in the royal palace.

Complaints were immediately filed by the law firm of Luper, Needle and Parker, representing the interests of the United Space Federation. They claimed that Elexin’s arrest was illegal due to him being a Federation diplomat and thus enjoying the luxury of diplomatic immunity. Furthermore, since Havoc had signed a treaty agreeing to make Hellifyno a provisional member of the Federation, his rule was subject to that governing body’s intergalactic rules.

Elexin was indicted before the people of Hellifyno, in a town hall-style meeting led by Havoc and his newly appointed Pro Consul, Tye Sampson. There, the people of Hellify could not air his grievances and attest to Elexin’s guilt or innocence in perpetrating the Blood Hunt.

While many had doubts about his role, the final conclusion drawn was that a squid-like monster called the Bokrug had seized psychic control of Elexin, forcing him to take the actions that led to the execution of the Blood Hunt. . Subsequent verification by Daloki and a government Mind Flayer, attested to the fact that the presence was no longer in Elexin’s mind.

After being cleared, Elexin decided to leave Hellifyno, for his safety and the safety of those around him.

Lord Havoc, leader and executive of Hellifyno, has officially marked Jayden as his partner. The Pain and Flame ceremony was held on Saturday, July 13, 2010. it effectively binds you throughout this lifetime and the next, connecting you with ties both magical and intrinsic.

Elexin Harbindale and Daloki tied the knot on Monday night at Blue Moon Tavern. Harry the Bartender performed the ceremony, and Raelin Wolvarian Aero and John Smith II served as attendees at the event. The after party was catered by Teery.

Amia L Lunarclaw gave birth to twins on Monday night. Cadence and Connor were born healthy and could now walk and talk, thanks to Dr. Dragon Teers’ beep birthing skills.

EZRA AND THE ALICE PROJECT

Ezra Bin Nod, the creator of Elexin Harbindale and the Kiasyd of the vampire race, was recently kidnapped by Megadon under the auspices of Pentex. This crime was perpetrated in order to extract his blood, to use it in an experimental procedure that is developed under the name of Project Alice. There may also be a connection between this experiment and Blood Hunt’s search for hybrid vampires.

After being captured, Devlin Bester, reformed Wyrm Spawn and leader of The Dawn, planned a daring raid on their facility to rescue him from their clutches. Led by Raelin Wolvarian Aero, an elite team stormed in and challenged Wyrm Spawn to rescue them from the Alice Research Base.

THE FAE WAR

Despite the setbacks of the Blood Hunt, the Fae army continues to spread throughout the universe. Every day more planets fall to this growing threat. The hostilities have reached a massive scale, with several empires involved in the conflict. The Fae threaten several fronts, including the Slayer Empire, the Federation, and Lord Viktor’s vampiric territories. No one has been able to put up an effective defense against its unstoppable forces, leading many to speculate pessimistically about the future of reality itself.
