A member of your forum advertised on our board, and as a result I'm advertising here, I'm sorry that I couldn't find the advertising board, but this will have to do for now.

Masquerade
In the beginning of time the Gods created Earth as we know it, soon after creating us. They went by every imaginable name and did every imaginable thing that was to be done with mortals as they called us. Toying with us, sleeping with us, falling in love with us, falling out of love. Something we and they didn't really know is that we have our own magic, a thing called life, a thing called death. It fascinated gods that our time on earth was so short, and yet we still accomplished so much. But in the end the Gods refused to acknowledge that this was more of a blessing than a curse and belittled and mocked us. Soon what had once been a tender relationship turned into lust and fear.
Out of this hatred sprung magic. The children of two vastly diffrent beings had powers beyond either's imagining. Some God's nurtured this power and others scorned it, but either way it blossomed. Thousands of diffrent species emerged from the cocoon of bleak loathing and spun dreams out of the nothingness.
Peace reigned on earth through the Greeks, the Romans and until the bloody fall of Rome. The God's then had become weary of all this war and magic, they wanted to return to the oblivion from which they came. So they did. Chaos soon ruled, and they called it the dark ages. The humans rationalized that there had never been God's and changed the tale of history. The children of the Gods felt abandoned and blamed the Humans for the God's leaving.
In turn the Humans called them creatures and deamons. War engulfed Earth. Dragons were hunted down, elves shot, sorcerers burned alive. Something had to be done. The greatest sorcerer Morgainne recognized this and decided to seperate the fabric of the world in two creating an entirely diffrent universe parallell to our very own.
Some call it Avalon, but it's true name is the Underground. Slowly it ripped itself from what it called the ashes of a world long abandoned. However the chaos from the aboveworld as they now called it was still running hot in their blood and war sprang up. Famine and hunger tore at the Underground just as Earth was gaining peace.
Then Jareth, a extremely powerful, albeit arrogant and vain, sorcerer took a stand and bonded the Underground together under his rule. It's been a hundred years and although he has had many relationships, he has yet to settle down and the people are beginning to get anxious, without a proper heir the Underground could once again be thrown into chaos.
So King Jareth in a fortnight is throwing a ball to find a wife in a fortnight, and your invited.
Welcome to the masquerade....
