Ever since the beginning. Ever since the human race appeared on the Earth and took dominance of the planet, they have been the prey. They have been stepped on and they have been the victims, the helpless ones. The proof is in many accounts throughout history, now considered to be only mythology or folklore by those who have forgotten. Forces of uncontrollable power, those with the abilities of the supernatural, spiritual beings.... They have tormented humanity. But no longer. No longer will we be the prey in those stories. We will take back what little dignity we have, one way or another. But.... when does redemption turn into blind vengeance?

There is a feeling of delirium thumping in my heart, spreading through my body. With the little strength that I can muster, I reach out to take hold of the nearest objects to me.

Originate - Season 1
They call them Exelistis, a Greek word for The Evolver. One day the ground shook, and before anyone knew what was going on, they appeared. Bursting out of the ground, they wasted no time starting to scan people, and ultimately decided their fate. You were either judged unworthy and disposed of, or you were 'Accepted' and turned into a weapon. I saw as my best friend was murdered right before my eyes. Shaken up and unable to move, I knew it was my turn next. The machine picked me up, and with it's one eye, it looked at me and scanned me. Afterwords, it spoke "Chimera." What does that mean? The next thing I knew, I woke up, and my life was never the same again. A war had broken out between our own kind, separated by titles those mechanical things gave us: "Rejected or Accepted." All I know is I have to survive.Complete
