Introduction
Located in the forests of Vermont, Cirque Du Nuit is one of this small town's darkest areas. People from all over come to visit. Everyone wants a taste of the darkness and nightmarish sights that lie within. Vampires, werewolves, mutants, and people with various special powers.
Will you view it, or join it? Will you even come out alive? Why not find out?
History of Cirque Du Nuit
Over 200 years ago, one Shape Shifter named Jean Dupont decided there needed to be a safe haven for people like him, and even those who werenβt. He decided to migrate from France to Vermont, which was just a recently established place. Jean immediately found a section of this place he liked, and decided that this was where his safe heaven would be.
Instead of building an institution, he felt that making a place where humans could come and see how amazing his people (and others) could be would be better than locking them up, never to be seen again. So he started Cirque Du Nuit. Millions of people came all from all over to view the earliest performers, and it has been going on ever since.
Jean used his son, Julien, as the lure to the circus. Julien would wait outside on the roads near the forest, standing quietly with his arms behind his back. All was going well, until Julien was bitten by a Vampire, and turned into one. He was to stay 13 forever. He still stand outside the forest, leading people in.
Should you ever find yourself wandering, and you come across a young black haired boy with startling blue eyes, why not follow him? It may just be Julien Dupont.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 2 authors
Setting
0.00 INK
From behind thick iron bars, two slit-pupil green eyes scanned the shadows, aware of sounds unnatural to the rythm of the darkness. The woman wasn't trapped; her imprisonment was self-induced and the key to the cage dangled from her wrist. Passerby likely wouldn't recognise her emerald gaze as anything more than that of a wary panther. Most wouldn't realize that these watchful eyes belonged to a very humanoid individual.
CRACK! A twig snapping sounded as loud as a tree cracking in a thunderstorm. Immediately the woman's watch shifted to a patch of shadow several yards away.
"Good morning," an Egyptian voice called from the panthers' cage. "What brings you out here so early?"
Setting
0.00 INK
"I can't sleep around here," Jeannie admitted as she scurried near the cage. Her eyes reverted back to normal and so did everything else. She wore a heavy jacket and her dirty blonde hair was hung loose, "I'm searching for mice," she put it as simple as possible. Medusa was hungry, she wanted a juicy, fat mouse to kill and devour. Her tongue tickled the nape of Jeannie's neck.
"It's not morning yet," she corrected the cat, "It's more of a good night,"
Setting
0.00 INK
"May as well hunt, too. But I'm looking more along the lines of larger game," Striding off into the forest, her senses reached to find something to feed herself and the other felines.
