One way or another you have ended up in the city of Vanpey, a bustling metropolis of glass skyscrapers built on the grounds of an old colony. Permanents of this colony can be seen of course, with the old stone churches showing up every now and then, sitting between a few modern towers, as well as the few other historical buildings that survived being torn down during the city's rapid expansion during the Cold War. Old structures bulldozed over to create new sites for larger buildings, or sometimes a road. Many roads exist in Vanpey and many of them cross. And where these roads intersect, something special and dark takes its post there, approaching passer-byes with a clipboard, asking for signatures.
For one reason or another, you have signed the clipboard that the thing that appeared to be human waved in front of you. Whether it was on purpose or by accident, you have gotten a wish in exchange for "sacrificing control over thy unconscious body." For the most part you don't notice anything different about your everyday life... for the most part...
When you wake up, you often find dried blood underneath your fingernails, and your arms are usually coated with scratches and bruises, which you have no memory of acquiring. Sometimes when you come across an empty shell casing in your room, whose origin you cannot pinpoint. When you flip on the television, the local news is often reporting dastardly things: arson, murder, robberies, and other illegal activities, all without hope of finding whoever committed them.
Maybe it was about time you find out what you really paid when you signed that contract at the crossroads.

Here's the overview. This thread is going to be open as long as it is still running, as the nature of it allows for new characters to easily be integrated into it.
