What defines a monster?

What distinguishes a man from a beast?

How are people so different? And are they people when they are not human?

Their voices have been silenced, but these are questions often asked and loosely answered. They say the truth varies based on the person and the life they have lived and learned from. But one can gain an understanding and answer without having to live through a certain experience.

One can simply hear a story and arrive at a conclusion. And I have many stories to tell. Melodramatic, terrifying, heart-wrenching, blood-curdling, and despairing stories. Stories of kings and queens, of beings that once were and never were, folks that have been defeated, and lost, and others who have conquered, and prevailed on, many who have transformed, and weaklings who squirm.

Yes, I have many tales to share with you, child. You will get what you seek, or you will find something you never knew you were looking for.

So sit, child, there's no place else for you to go. Sit and choose a story; it will reveal all. Listen closely to Miss Spider's tales.

THE REALM

All three of these roleplays are part of a much bigger realm known as The Circle, a fantasy roleplay focusing on common fantasy species like Vampir, Were, Fae, Merfolk, etc. While these roleplays are separate from the main modern-day stories of the realm, it is important to familiarize yourself with the country of Cervia in which all of these stories take place. You can do so by reading The Cervian Guidebook.
