The Circle
As the Dawn of Man came, so did the Dawn of Violence. The Gods (Greek, Norse, Egyptian, all of them) knew that these new creatures needed some way to protect themselves, so they gifted them with magic. As time passed, however, people slowly began to lose their faith and belief in magic, thus the magic became weaker. To keep magic from dying out, the Gods decided to create a group of mages, the Mage Circle. They chose powerful warriors to live forever and practice their magic. There was an Animal Mage, Plant Mage, Light Mage, Dark Mage, Fire Mage, Air Mage, and every kind of Mage in between.
Eventually, however, one of these Mages, the Mage of Shadows, turned to evil, and discovered the Mages were not truly immortal. It was true that they could not die by natural means, he learned that they COULD be killed. So he slowly began to kill the Mages, until there were only five left to defeat him, the Mage of Fire, the Mage of Water, the Mage of Earth, the Mage of Air, and the Mage of Sparks.
These Mages fought the Mage of Shadows for centuries, until finally, they decided that they needed to pass their powers on. This need came from the fact that the Mage of Shadows had fatally injured them all, and they were slowly dying from their wounds. The Gods sent down a Mentor to help them pass their powers on, though to do that, they had to pass their souls on too.
This led to a decade long period of extreme violence as the new born mages matured. When they were eighteen, the Immortal, as the mentor was called, stole them away, training them and teaching them how to fight the Demons that the Mage of Shadows was releasing into this world. This cycle continued for many centuries.
In 1996, the Mages once again passed on their souls, and now, eighteen years later, five teenagers have discovered their powers, and are about to be taken by the Immortal. How will the New Mages fare in this modern war against against ancient enemies?
