Thousands
have felt the touch of the supernatural
For most, arcane events
are unexpected, created by seemingly mindless
manifestations. Some fondly remember these
blessed events. Some do not survive the encounter.
Most spend their nights shuddering behind
barred but useless doors.
A few watch helplessly as
their minds degenerate into madness.
These poor souls are no
longer human.
They are out there…immortal
and obsessed.
Others -- daring magicians
and devoted acolytes -- seek out supernatural
power and willingly risk corruption. They
study arcane tomes, perform strange experiments
and cast elaborate rituals. These practitioners
manipulate arcane energies and achieve wondrous
or horrific results. Some practitioners are
solitary and secretive, working in dusty bookshops,
deserted buildings or cramped apartments.
More than you think operate in state-of-the-art
laboratories with substantial budgets. Their
machinations affect millions of people, and
millions of dollars. The corruptive forces
of magic are ever present, however, and many
eventually succumb.
Some magicians seek power
and riches.
Others fight baleful forces.
A few bring light to an
uncaring world.
