Finally he ended up in the gravity faction since neutrons kind of have something to do with gravitation. The faction leader Gravity was overjoyed to finally have a soldier of his own so he is never letting Neutron change faction again. Ever! Neutron on the other hand was quite happy in the radiation faction and thinks Gravity can be an irritating old man/badger who has no idea of what he's doing.
He is the self-proclaimed sibling of Electron and Proton.

## Personality

## Biography

### As an electrical agent

The first faction Neutron was assigned to was electrical where he worked as an agent retracting human identeties along with his siblings Electron and Proton. He frequently let offenders slip away with only a warning which annoyed Electrical. In the end she had the council transfer him to Thermal/Mechanical with the excuse that his element better fitted there.

### As a T/M teacher

Neutron refused to become a scout because he thought it would be rainy and cold out in the wild and he had no abilities that would be of any help when it came to building infrastructure. So he ended up as a teacher. A very lousy teacher. He didn't care for the profession at all. He was teaching a class in human society when he met Shrapnel, who back then went by the name Sulphur. They formed an tentative friendship based on the fact that none of them felt like they really belonged.
During this time he often frequented human clubs and especially rave clubs. He met Radiation for the first time in a club called White Lights. After hearing Neutrons lament about being a teacher she had him transferred to radiation.

### As a radiation clerk

Helping people getting human IDs were more his style than withdrawing them. He thought it was as fun to come up with backstories to the human personas he created as it had been to come up with the story of how they died. He became good friends with Radiation and they started to hang out a lot. Radiation sometimes came into the office dragging him out to some new nightclub she had found.

### As Gravity's second in command

One day Gravity showed up and simply transferred Neutron to his faction. Ever since then Neutron has been trying to figure out what his job is about and how to best perform it.

## Biography

According to Edgar's own memories has he been a part of the Magnetic faction who works with infiltrating the human society. He used to work underground as the maintenance guy for the robot systems transporting food and waste in and out of New Devantos. He didn't enjoy company and found it very nice down there only working with robots. For 115 years he worked down there repairing robots and making sure some food transportation got into the shifter districts. One day his key-cards stops working. He resurfaces only to find that he's not in any register anywhere. He blames the electrical faction for glitching him out of all systems as a punishment for working too long with a human job.

Edgar's powers are a bit peculiar as he controls Dark Matter. A substance that can not be observed in any known way or can be interacted with in any way, excepts that it in large masses it interacts with gravity.
Edgar is able to turn into Dark matter making him completely impossible to detect (except for psychics who can sense soul lights). In this state he is also unable to interact with anything.

As the factions have different responsibilies it is common that shifters in the faction works with something related, but that's not always the case. There are always other jobs that needs to be done don't fit into any of the factions responsibilies, and there are also a lot of shifters that have no jobs, either living in the wild or busy maintaining a human identity .

Shifter reproduction

They can make babies! the child will inherit their parents personality and psychic powers but not their element, genes nor looks. it's quite popular to combine the soul merging act with traditional biological mating among lovers.

## How to

Se also; Psychics

This is the most common psychic power as all shifters have it. it's the ability to merge one's souls and to become one being in two different bodies. as the shifters souls are merged they share feelings, thoughts and opinions. For most shifters it requires physical touch but skilled, powerful and trained psychics can also do it on a short distance. While the shifters souls are connected they both get an arousing feeling and they get the feeling of possessing the other shifters element. the connection can be broken by sudden changes of opinions, feelings or if the shifters disagree on something.

While their souls are connected The shifters swap eye colors with each other and their eyes glows a lot more than usual.

If the connection between their souls is strong enough their merged soul essence can grow outside their bodies often concentrated in their palms (if they are in human form) it will eventually form a soul embryo created by their merged beings unless the shifters decides to end the love act. when the embryo is created both of the shifters will automatically separate and will feel tired as most of their energy went into the embryo.

## Soul embryos

A soul embryo is more or less a soul without a body. It will seek a female animal womb to possess and use as a surrogate mother. Shifters can carry soul embryos I'm their palms and help them to find a suitable surrogate mother. the shifters birth form will resemble the surrogate mother in looks.

Shifters can carry soul embryos in their palms

## Hosts

To transision from the state of a soul embryo into a shifter the soul needs a surrogate mother to help form a biological body. The host animal of the new shifter can either be picked by the parents, who plant the soul embryo in a sutable surrogate mother, or the soul embryo can be sent of to find one by itself.

There are some physical limitations to an host animal.

1. The animal cannot be smaller than a rat
2. It must be an animal. It cannot be a mushroom, plant or any other organism.

The society have  a few practical rules about which animals you can use as a host.

1. The animals should have 4 limbs (4 legs or 2 legs and 2 arms/wings.)
2. The animal should not be a water living animal.
3. The host should not be a human.

After a normal gestation period the shifter will be born, at first looking like a typical member of the host species, but as it grows demon traits and powers become apparent.
Reisod

Reisod is the smaller of Urth's two moons. It orbits the larger moon, Chrono , at a period of twelve days.
It was created by Gravity as a refugee during the war at the beginning of time by taking a small piece of Urth with him out into space. On its surface lies a frozen forest called "the Petrified Garden".

## Creation

Reisod was created when Gravity, tired of the war, took a peice of Urth with him into space to create a safe haven for himself. The moon's stable orbit is thanks to the influence of Gravity's power.

Humans have a few wild speculations about the moon, both religous and scientific, but none that are close to the truth.

The creation of Reisod might have been one of the things that broughtthe gods ' attention back to the war.

## The Petrified garden

One side of the small moon is covered by a prehestoric forest, perfectly preserved in the vacum of space. The plants give Reisod a slightly green tint when viewed from Urth.

## Space missions

Humans have sent several space probes to investigate the odd moon. The latest probe to reach Reisod was in 4290 , it took several high quality images of the Petrified gardens. To date these are the most recent and reliable data about the forest. With these photos sientecs were able to not only determine that the plants had come from Urth, but also been able to pinpoint the aproximate location.

In the sixties there had been plans of sending a new mission, one that could bring bach physical samples from the moon. But environmentalists and religious movements had put a stop to that. It was decided the dead forest of Reisod was to unique and sacred to risk any more damage from man-made machines.
Demon bloods

Demon blood is a non shifter with genetic relations to a shifter. A first generation demon blood is the offspring between a shifter and a normal animal. First generation demon bloods almost exclusively have the non shifter as mother as a shifters body would absorb the foetus when shifting. Animals are considered demon bloods as long as their demon genes gives them an appearance atypical for the animal.

## Apperance

Demon blood inherit one or several of their shifter ancestor's demon traits. It can be things like weird fur colours, horns or dragon tails. Traits like this persits through generations.

## In human society

No one eats demon blood meat. This is due to the old religious Confessus value that demon bloods are impure and evil beings. They are however popular for sport hunting and trophies. Some people bread demon blood traits in domesticated animals.

There are persistent myths and legends about human demon bloods through human society. But they are considered as made up as vampires or unicorns.

One evolutionary theory suggests that evolution is driven by random demon blood mutations. The theory suggests that whenever a demon blood trait appears that gives the individual a benefit it will soon spread to entire populations, creating new species. It even went so far as to suggest that humans are demon blood monkeys.

The theory was of course abolished by the Confessus church as heresy. In modern times demon blood evolutionary theory have gained popularity, even though few believe in the monkey part.

Norfolk

*"The metropole of ice and isolation."*

*-A common saying*

Norfolk is one of several shifter communities hidden away in the wilderness by the radiation faction. Norfolk is located in the northern wilderness on an island in a lake. Trough Askr's light trickery the village remains hidden. Communities like this is often inhabited by weaker shifters that prefer civilized life but are too weak to properly hide among humans .

To Norfolk you can get either by traveling through the wilderness and then take a boat over the lake or by a secret underground train leaving from what looks like a factory in a small human village called Torenya , a place predicted to become a ghost town in a few decades.

Shifter district

This is about the New Devantos' Shifter districts.

The shifter district occupies the northern most part of the city and have direct contact with the forest. It is surrounded by a wall of houses, only leaving a few entry points to the district.The house wall make it look like a slum district from outside while inside it got nice looking houses and well tough out architecture.

This is a part of town humans never go, as it has the
reputation of a bad neighbourhood were people get robed or killed. The electrical faction has also made sure all GPS systems lead humans away from the area and that none of the AR games ever encourage them to enter. If a human against all likelihood enters they will be lead away in the least suspicious way possible.

## Faction buildings

Each faction has their own blocks and headquarters. The most notable are chemical’s baroque buildings, electrical’s grey and efficient offices, the motely market of elastic and the shiny pompous buildings of nuclear. The thermal/mechanical faction block contains schools and living quarters, while the hospital is run by magnetic.

## Dorms

Even though there are plenty of residence buildings inside
the district not everyone has a place of their own. Most newly discovered shifters, students and scouts who don’t spend a lot of time in the city use the dorms. In the dorms you can get a small room with nothing more than a cupboard and a bed. There is access to a shared kitchen, but most of the shifters living here eats in the cafeteria.

## Cafeteria

The cafeteria is run by T/M. Here fresh food is served four times a day and it’s open around the clock. Food is fee and there is a
mix of food fit for both humans and ferals as shifters have quite
varying tastes. It’s not fantastic food though.

## Training grounds

The training grounds is a large complex hidden away inside the mountain. Here shifters can learn and train the use of their demon forms. The large stone halls are also used to host the popular show fights, where professional shifters battle each other in front of an audience. The halls are maintained by a rock shifter known as Haircut, he usually comes by to fix things at Thursdays.

## Gardens

The large shifter garden is run and maintained by the plant shifters of the chemical faction. It is a harmonious and green place. There is a large Victorian greenhouse here that have tropical climate all year round.

## Library

In here you can find the archive of all registered shifters as well as all books written by shifters throughout the ages. The entrance to the library is a large double door and witch someone placed a sign that says: Careful with the doors please. The library has to rules; Be quiet and No fires. The head of the library is called Shrapnel.

## Penitentiary

Not all shifters are law abiding citizens and sometimes punishments need no be carried out. The penitentiary is located between the chemical and electric blocks to allow easy access form both factions. There is a couple of interrogation rooms and a small jail with a few cells, only used to hold people while they await their punishment. The other rooms are a lot less nice
Blacktown

Blacktown is what the rebels call the old abandoned human town that they have made into their stronghold. Much like Norfolk it is protected by a light sphere, but to hide from other shifters rather than to hide from humans.

## History

The first town built where Blacktown is located was built by Neophytes, declaring it a holy site. This town was later destroyed by Confessus invaders who built their own temple on top of the neophyte one. Several hundred years later when the human society became more secular the town became a tourist town, and the temple it's main attraction. It was later abandoned due to the decline in humans and advent of VR which let people visit the temple without visiting the town.

## Architecture

Blacktown is surrounded by patchwork walls built by the rebels. It is built of a plethora of materials; anything the builders could manipulate as well as left behind human trash. The wall has a big impressive gate, with two almost medieval-inspired guard towers.

Blacktown is built on top of the ruins of the old tourist town and the old structures that are still standing. The old houses have been repaired in all kind of bizarre ways, many houses looks like someone with unlimited resources but no architecture knowledge had repaired the building. Holes in the roof and walls have been patched up with whatever materials the inhabitants can access. Some houses have new annexes and additions to the old architecture. Some buildings are properly grounded stable buildings while others are big fragile constructions without much thought of stability and which will soon collapse under its own weight. Examples of architecture is big glass towers, towering above the normal roof, annex built out of round shiny iron bunkers, marble huts, plastic balconies and crystalline walls.

The centre of the town is dominated by a large Confessus temple which Wilfred uses ad his headquarters. In front of the temple is a golden statue of Wilfred in his animal form.

## Organization

The Others made countless experiments. By connecting themselves in the reproductive act to a large consciousness they were able to enhance their own abilities, unfortunately one of the psychics often died in the process. The person who died were the weakest psychic in the synergy, to solve this problem the others always invited a weak psychic which could die for the cause. This victim were always unknowing of the outcome and where called "the weakest rat" or "the weakest link" by Shade and his siblings.

One of the many experiments they made resulted in the Energy shifters

 Another experiment they made was the one to tie the demon souls to biological bodies and evolving from demons to shifters.

## Offspring

The Others kept close watch over their offspring. They educated the stronger ones and kept the weaker ones oblivious of the purpose of their experiments.

## The creation of Nuclear

Ever since the war was Shade obsessed with making himself the strongest shifter there could ever be. He wanted to win the war and to prove himself the crown of the creation to any price. In the medieval ages he was convinced he had found the strongest element there could ever be, Nuclear energy.

Religion

Even though human society now a days is secular there are a few old religions around. The two biggest being Confessus and Neophyte.

## Confessus

Confessus is the biggest religion in the world and based on the ancient myth of the four elemental demons . It preaches that the world was made in the constant battle between the demons, but as the war continued it was doomed to be ripped apart again. In the end the benevolent gods and their angels stepped in and killed the corrupt and evil demons, to save the world from destruction by their constant battles.

Demon bloods are seen as sign of the demons corrupt influence still lingering in the world. The reason demon bloods don’t occur in humans is contributed to the gods. It is believed the gods themselves created humans, therefore they are pure beings without corruption.

### Proelior

This is a branch of Confessus that believes that the battle between gods and demons still rage. Every year they look up in the stars and predict the end of the world.

## Neophyte

Another important religion is the Neophytes. The main difference from Confessus is the view on the demons. They preach that you should be thankful to the demons that were killed by the gods, as they gave up their lives so the world could continue existing. They have a holiday celebrating this were they re-enact the war called Thankssaying. Some Neophytes even go so far as to say that humans are the children of the elemental demons.

Needless to say Neophytes are not liked by Confessus. In the old days they were described as demon worshipping savages. Even if attitudes have changed with a more secular society discrimination against people with Neophyte heritage still happens.

### Tribes

The neophytes are organized into four main tribes, each tracking their herritage back to one of four original demons. Natrualy these tribes are big and therfore devided into subtribes, each with their own local culture.

#### First breath

Sailors and traders,, the most nomadic of the tribes.

#### Water of life

The limbo is also the mind and soul. All living creatures with a soul has a limbo but only shifters can make use out of the pocket dimension. The size of the limbo depends of the elemental strength with a shifter and the amount of intelligence with biological creatures.
