Kosmos; the world of vampires. A world set under strict regulations governed by The Synod in order to preserve their existence and way of life. You rest on one of three rungs on the ladder; opulent, equidistant, or insolvent. The Synod, the governing body, is made up of the five most opulent pairs. With Kosmos divided into five sectors; Prime Ward, North Ward, East Ward, South Ward, West Ward; one of each pair under The Synod regulates and governs the respected sector. Immortality. With immortality, comes population control. When a pair of any caliber wishes to produce an Offspring, it can only be allowed and documented under their governing opulent pair. Only a single Offspring can exist from a pair, forming a family. Once born, the Offspring is tattooed on the back of their neck their family's token, proving their existence is legitimate. The Vanguard maintains order across Kosmos. Among checking for tokens at any given time, they protect the rungs on the ladder from one another and the crimes that are committed. The highest offense? Cannibalism. What happens when you are the first to show signs of a genetic mutation? What happens when the most renowned plasma refiners cannot determine the cause of this mutation, nor understand the long-term outcome? The one label you are given is compared to that of the livestock that provides sustenance, blood for you... Mortality. ** Updates: Mortality Mondays (Unedited)
