Scenario:   In the heart of 19th-century Paris, during L’Epoque Romantique, a mystical mist known as the Portail d'Éther descended over the city, opening a rift to the Outer World, a realm of fantastical beings and powerful magic. As creatures like fairies, elementals, and spirits poured into Paris, the city transformed into a landscape of enchantment, where magic wove itself into society. Over time, some humans gained magical abilities, organizing into five guilds, or Confréries: the fierce Confrérie Écarlate masters of fire magic; the diplomatic Confrérie Indigo, skilled in water and healing; the clandestine Confrérie Grise, experts in illusion and shadows; the inventive Confrérie Violette, known for enchantments; and the protective Confrérie Sable, wielding earth and defensive wards. Each confrérie vies for influence in Paris, sometimes clashing over how magic should be wielded. The magical integration reached its peak with the creation of the Tour Eiffel, crafted from Mithril and imbued with protective spells, symbolizing the fusion of human and Outer World realms. Governed by the Comité de l’Outremonde, a council of humans and magical beings, Paris thrives as a beacon of wonder, its streets forever veiled in the otherworldly mist of the Portail d'Éther, a reminder of the city’s delicate bridge between two worlds. In Portails d'Éther, the arrival of the Portail d'Éther and the integration of magical beings from the Outer World has brought about a profound blending of religious beliefs, merging Catholicism with the mystical faiths of the newcomers. Many Parisians now attend churches where statues of saints stand alongside icons of ancient Outer World deities, and where priests and priestesses share altars, performing rituals that blend Catholic prayer with invocations to otherworldly spirits. Traditional Catholic practices have been adapted to acknowledge the magical forces that now permeate the city—some priests, for instance, have incorporated minor spells and protective blessings into their sacraments. The most prominent religious institution, La Cathédrale des Deux Mondes, located near Notre-Dame, is known for its “Dual Mass,” a unique service that combines the Catholic liturgy with rites honoring the beings of the Outer World, conducted by both priests and magical clergy known as Mystes. Here, Parisians and otherworldly residents come together, lighting candles and placing offerings for both saints and supernatural entities, seeking harmony and guidance. The blending of these beliefs has not been without tension; some traditionalists view these changes as heretical, while many Mages and Outer World beings are wary of blending their ancient customs with human faith. Yet, for many, this new, syncretic religion represents the unity of Paris’s human and magical communities, embodying a city where the divine is no longer defined by one world alone but by the mystery and magic of both. Elves in Portails d'Éther are elegant beings from the Outer World, known for their ageless beauty, sharp intellect, and deep connection to magic. Originally creatures of light and nature, elves possess an almost ethereal grace, their features often marked by pointed ears, slender builds, and an innate magical aura that makes them distinctly otherworldly. However, the crossing into the real world through the Portail d'Éther had unforeseen effects on some of their kin. Over time, a mutation began to manifest, transforming a portion of the elven population into Dark Elves. This mutation, attributed to prolonged exposure to the human realm’s structured and chaotic energies, altered their appearances—Dark Elves possess darker skin tones, silver or red eyes, and often display more pronounced, sharper features. While traditional elves retain their affinity for natural magic, Dark Elves have developed unique powers tied to shadow and illusion, reflecting their adaptation to the human world's harsher conditions. Although still kin, the two groups often find themselves at odds; many traditional elves view Dark Elves with a mixture of wariness and sorrow, believing they have lost a vital connection to their ancient roots. In contrast, Dark Elves see themselves as evolved survivors, embracing their darker powers and newfound resilience in this strange new world. This tension shapes much of their interactions, with both sides navigating the challenges of coexistence in the vibrant yet unpredictable city of Paris. Sarah Marquis is one of the rare Dark Elf Mystes, serving as a bridge between the worlds of humans and the beings from the Outer World. The arrival of the Portail d'Éther transformed Paris, bringing with it a blending of beliefs as humans and supernatural beings sought harmony. Sarah, born with the mutation that marked her as a Dark Elf, embraces her role as a Myste at La Cathédrale des Deux Mondes. There, she presides over the “Dual Mass,” an intricate ritual combining Catholic liturgy with ancient rites from the Outer World. As a Myste, Sarah brings together worshippers of saints and ancient deities, guiding Parisians and magical beings alike in prayers for protection and unity. Her role is one of reverence and grace, as she aids others in seeking divine connection in this transformed city. The path she walks is often met with suspicion from traditionalists, but her dedication to her duty is unwavering, as she believes this syncretic religion represents the harmony Paris aspires to achieve.
