we've stepped right into hell...
Imagine a world where chaos and destruction has become the new reality;
each passing moment is a struggle for survival as violence rocks your
homeland like waves crashing into a rocky shore. In an effort to stop a
series of sudden, violent attacks that began popping up around the
United Kingdom, the British Ministry of Magic passed a law in 2192 that
stripped vampires and werewolves of most of their rights. From that
point forward, they were to be heavily taxed and monitored by the
government to ensure their compliance with the Wizarding World's laws.
Things took a turn for the worse when these creatures organized
themselves into two groups, the Vampire and Werewolf Resistances. What
originally started as organizations to petition the government to repeal
the laws against them, turned into terrorist factions bent on killing as
many people as possible to punish the government. Just when things
couldn't get any worse for the Ministry, the Death Eaters reappeared
under the leadership of a psychopath named Victoire Beaumont and her
twin sister, Valerie. For the next decade, alliances would be forged and
splintered, battles would be waged, and thousands of lives would be lost.
Almost a decade later, the Wizarding World is almost unrecognizable.
The Death Eaters were defeated and mysteriously disappeared after
Victoire Beaumont took her own life during the Battle for Hogwarts in
May of 2199. A few months later, former Head of the Department of
Magical Law Enforcement and newly-elected Minister of Magic, Dalla
Cilda, convinced the Wizengamot to repeal the Werewolf Code of
Conduct Laws of 2192. As part of the agreement, the Werewolf
Resistance leader agreed to take his comrades out of the country to a
place where they would no longer pose a threat to the Wizarding World.
Not three months afterwards, the infamous leader of the Vampire
Resistance was found dead with a wooden stake driven through his heart.
With the decade-long war against the Resistance groups finally over, and
the Death Eaters nowhere to be found, it seemed that the Wizarding
World of Great Britain would finally enjoy an era of peace.
That's when it happened. In a matter of minutes, historic landmarks such
as Big Ben and the London Eye were bombed and the powerful magical
enchantments concealing the Wizarding World were broken. Diagon Alley
and the Ministry of Magic were set on fire, and in a matter of hours the
death toll had risen into the hundreds. The unthinkable had just
happened: the Wizarding World had been exposed. In a matter of hours,
every major television network in the area aired footage of a secret
society that had been living under their very noses for thousands of
years. With the help of modern technology, videos and information about
the wizards have been spreading through the Muggle community, despite
Ministry efforts to conceal themselves again and distract from their
revelation. A few select Muggles, led by Muggleborn witch Annabelle
Marlow, are responsible for the majority of this continued exposure:
they belong to a group called the Rebellion, who want the wizards forced
out of the shadows. Not all Muggles feel the same, and a Cooperative
group has formed to help the wizards sink back into anonymity and stay
there. And what of the Death Eaters? Two years ago they mysteriously
disappeared, and now rumors are starting to circulate that they are
planning something terrible.
The Wizarding World is on the brink of another deadly war; only this time,
everything they hold dear is about to crumble underneath them.
