Book of the Dominion.
The Dominion is a stratosphere of mythical beings existing in the mortal world. Living their lives alongside, but hidden from humanity. They are myriad in species and all are immortal.
The Dominion is divided into three.
The Pure;
Creatures dedicated to preserving human life. The warriors of this sect are born, bred and trained to protect.
The Dark;
Beings descended from the Pure Dominion who have been twisted by an age old grief. They feed on the blood and flesh of mortals.
The Neutral;
Civilian beings affiliated with neither faction whose only wish is to blend into the human world and survive.

Universal Lore.
No being of the dominion can truly exist during daylight hours. All species are susceptible to sunlight and react in different ways.
All Dominion creatures heal fast, some faster than others.
Each species has a unique way of dying, specific to their breed.
Pure and Neutral beings can only increase their numbers through procreation, but Dark creatures can 'turn' humans, creating unnatural's. Unnatural's are considered less valuable than natural born's.
Fertility is low in all species so the Dark Dominion have larger numbers because of their ability to create unnaturals.
Each species comes into their immortality at a certain age, most often as the planet Saturn passes the point it was at the beings birth, approx 28yrs. Once reaching immortality the being freezes, no longer ageing or changing.
Creatura of the Dominion.
The Fae.
The Fae (faerie) are main players in both the Pure and Dark Dominion. Myriad in species, they were the first Dominion creatures to be called across the void into the land of men.
All Fae are direct descendants of the Sacred Triad of Pagan Goddesses in it's many forms. Maiden, mother and crone.
Fae of the Dark Dominion have broken their blood ties to the trinity and are cursed to feed on flesh and blood. Most Fae are Neutrals, but a few species are among the strongest Pure and Dark Dominion creatures. Fae fade during daylight hours, becoming ghostly and semi transparent. They heal very fast, cuts heal over night, breaks in a few days. They do not scar. Immortality sets in between 19 and 24 which is young for a dominion creature.
A Fae can be killed by decapitation, burning in an unnatural fire, a death spell cast by a being of significant power and bleeding out.
Most notable Fae of the Pure Dominion:
Beanne Sidhe, (Ban Shee.) An all female tribe of vicious huntresses whose sole purpose in life is to destroy the Dark Dominion. This breed originally sang the deaths of human soldiers and were chosen to be warriors of the Pure at the time of the schism for their familiarity with violent death. They are slightly built with pointed ears and midnight black eyes. They traditionally wear their hair long and dread locked and dress in natural colors and fabrics. They are tattoo'd before immortality with a line of arrowheads that run from bottom lip to throat. They have superhuman senses, speed and strength. Live in groups of three kith-sisters until they mate. They patrol certain areas where the Dark commonly prowl.
Gwragedd Annwn, (Gwrageth Anoon: women of the underworld.) Another all female tribe of Fae whose main offence/defense is magic. These beings are stunningly beautiful. Tall and lean with hair so pale it appears almost silver. They have mesmerizing green/blue eyes that glow silver when they are using magic. These fae control the water element. They are physically weaker than most Dominion creatures, but can flow (the dominion word for teleport) giving them a distinct advantage in battle. They have spiraling glyphs that look like tattoos on their palms, forearms, feet and calves. They are not tattoos, but a feature of their skin. These pulse with color when they feel strong emotion.
Daoine Sidhe, (Deenie Shee.) The aristocracy of the Fae. Human legends of elf kind derive from them. They have no defining feature of their species other than slightly pointed ears and their height and strong build, all differing in appearance. They are very tall, the men of this species are commonly 6.5 or more, the women often reach 6 foot. They are the oldest of the fae, with elders born in the bronze age making them up to nine thousand years old. The king of the Deoine Sidhe rules all of the pure and neutral dominion. They are arrogant by nature and fierce fighters. They are the driving force behind the pure dominion. They are extremely strong and fast and possess earth magics and affinity with natural elements. They are amazing trackers, driven to find their quarry. Unfortunately they have become very rare. They are a highly sensual species but don't breed well and it is unusual to find one younger than two thousand.
