If the world seems ordinary, then you must look beyond the obvious. Every myth, every legend, and every conspiracy is true. Everything is true.
There is a battle for world domination ongoing between three secret societies. The Templar, The Dragon, and The Illuminati. But they also have one common enemy, an unknown enemy. Something has awakened Gaia, the earthforce. Something so terrible that the World Tree has acted in an unprecedented manner.
Recently there have been droves of new ''enlightened ones'' who have been ''awakened'' by a bee. Imagine waking up in the middle of the night having choked on something. A bee. You could hear it buzz as it slid down your throat. Then that very same moment of panic, you're full of these new sudden powers. Blood magic, elemental magic, improved reflexes and strength.
You're swept into The Secret World. Your life is never meant to be normal again. And depending on your next actions in the following twenty-four hours of that bee, you will be recruited into one of these secret societies...
The Dragon- holy chaos, the butterfly effect… only they seem to enjoy causing the ripples themselves in an effort to change the world. Based in South Korea, Seoul.
The Illuminati- information is power, and power is everything. A pyramid scheme in living color. Paranoia is their game changer. Based in New York City.
The Templar- the demon hunters, the ancient ''good guys'' or so they like to claim. Some have the heart of a lion, others are the rot at the heart. Based in London.
Your story takes place in London, in a cabal known as Asylum. They were once Templar. Outcasts and cast-offs, they were considered expendable, or even a liability. They were set up by their political enemies within Templar High Command, and when they won out and survived, they were outright attacked.
A war ensued. Many died, but many more survived. They are now under the protection of the Dragons and the Illuminati. Together they work to strive in an abandoned centre of London Underground.
Whether you're Dragon, Illuminati, or Templar-outcasted (or double agent), you are part of the Asylum team. How you got here? It's entirely up to you.
