Britain
Nowadays, Britain is generally considered a peaceful country. Her conquering, Imperialistic days are over, and both World Wars have been won in favor of the British.
Yet war is closer than it appears. Not visibly, at least to most... but yet the ominous clouds of conflict loom ever closer on the horizon.
That's what you've been told your entire life as an agent of the government of Britain.
Lies, every last bit of it.
War isn't looming on our horizon, it's right above us and is already pouring down. Surprised? Of course you are. This whole facade about "peace" is a lie perpetrated by my branch of the MI-5. Who are we, you ask?
We're the Silence of Strife.
A strange name, but an appropriate one. We wage hidden war against two different enemies. You won't believe me when I tell them to you, of course, but you're going to have to get used to it sometime: fairies and cultists.
It's a jolly good time.
basics:
Setting: Modern-day Britain, mainly centered around London and Stonehenge.
Cast: Agents of the Silence of Strife (hereafter abbreviated as the Silence), imprisoned Fae from before the race of humans, and cultists of the fae. Also, helpless bystanders. Additionally, a new player may soon be joining the fray.
Technology & Magic: Technology has advanced far beyond what usual people have access to. Of course, the Silence gets all the goodies. Technology is cheaper than magic, however, magic can be used to slip past technological defenses and magic users can create wards that make bullets ineffective, rendering technology virtually useless. Technology is not yet on par with the forces of magic, thus magic users are especially prized.
Factions: The Silence is the focus of this site, as is evident in our name. However, we will be requiring RPers for major characters on the enemy factions as well. Additionally, a new player may soon be joining the fray.
