Rise Of The Outcasts

In a world where the supernatural hides from humanity behind a veil, mages control everything from the shadows, and monsters run rampant, Outcasts, beings rejected by both the human and supernatural worlds with the ability to nullify magic, stand alone as the last line of defense against the dark forces that threaten a world they no longer belong in. Constantine St. John, an average college student, has his life turned inside out when he awakens as an Outcast on his 21st birthday. Now, he has to navigate this new world that despises him and his kind. Together with his new allies, the assassin Kento Salvatore and the firebrand Jane Winchester, they undertake a perilous journey to Eden, the City of Origin, to take back control of their fate and, maybe, give the Outcasts a place to belong in.

Crimson Row, the red light district of Nyx, was a neon-drenched labyrinth of narrow alleys and flickering signs, casting an eerie glow over the cobblestone streets. As Twilight approached, businesses shuttered their doors, leaving the area in an unsettling stillness. The Jester walked down the main row, his white mask reflecting the neon signs of the various pleasure halls, his eyes on the drunk patrons leaving them. He started contemplating his next spree, the urges of his Cost pulling at him. He had taken out his card deck and drawn one, ready to strike, when a streak of purple and black lightning zipped past him. Constantine had arrived.

Constantine smirked, mocking, "The Jester, huh? Couldn't come up with something more original? "The Jester, his smile hidden behind the mask, responded with a drawl, "And you are? The lightning bug?"
