.:. Brief Overview .:.
>> Gods have always ruled the earth, everyone always revered and loed them, etc.
>> futuristic society where existence of Gods is real + there is heavy class separation; magic wielders vs nonmagic wielders
>> those with magic are blessed by certain Gods and are high tier
>> rare people in the low class exist that are blessed by minor Gods and are blessed by magic
>> said people are often sold as servants to the higher classes
>> once every 8 years, there are the 'Rabbit Games' (choose new name); a giant hide and seek game that often turns rather violent/people have died in them. lower class views it as a death sentence to be chosen.
>> said games are so that the younger high class can gain a servant on their own + to provide entertainment + to establish high tier families' reputations
>> strongest of the lower class are filtered out as participants.
>> they are 'hunted' by upper classes; if they lose they become servants, if they win they gain freedom + high class status
>> the high class can use past won servants (from their parents) in the game if they wish
>> pretty much there are academies to teach the magic wielders; low and high class. the low class participants are removed from their academy a month prior to the games and placed in the high class school to give them a taste of their future (or something like that)
>> minors have 1 power, majors have 2

>> there are two worlds; a magic one and a human one
>> in magic, there exists 2 royal families who rule hand in hand.
>> the youngest and only son of Royal Family 2 is one of the most powerful to ever exist. He begins to secretly pursue dark magic and thus falls to it.
>> Royal Family 1 possesses both a scroll and stone of ancient power + how to use lost magic. the young man kills his father and uses his army to get the relics.
>> War breaks out and the dark king is eventually pushed back at a great cost. Most of the royal family members have died.
>> Fearing for their lives if the king comes back, a brother and sister (who are candidates for the next heirs) are fused with the scroll and stone at birth
>> they are sent into the human world for "safe keeping".
>> at 18, they are suddenly returned as per their birthright to inherit the throne
>> dark king hears of their return and seeks them out to reclaim the stone and scroll
.:. Possible Plot Ideas .:.
>> sister gets the throne, making the brother jealous
>> brother secretly ends up developing a special link to the dark thing, allowing for him to hear + see everything
>>shit goes down
>> takes place in a utopian world where everyone has indicators implanted in them to measure threat against society
>> indicators are actually used to detect a mutant gene that gives people powers
>> if they reach, said people are "eliminated"
>> "elimination" is actually being forced into a secret sect of the government to find other people with 'black' indicators
>> there exists a rebel group who make it their duty in life to save these kids before the hunters get them
