Lucionn

OOC: This is open to anyone who would like to interact with my race. The Lucionns are a MT country but you may discover and interact with them as FT nations. I hope to develop many character RPs out of this nation... that's sort of where the end of this post is heading.
Deep Space
A small black object hurled through open nothingness... the deep caverns of space swallowed up the meaning of this object. If it weren't for the slight amount of light that were emanating from it, it would have been totally lost in the void of darkness that enveloped all in this area.
Then, suddenly in a flash of light the object began to contract. First slowly, then much much faster. It's gravitational field pulled and pulled, grabbing everything around it that existed and sucking it in. It was a dying star, and it was in the final stages of death. What once had been a brilliant sphere of light, was now a hungry black hole.
Light couldn't escape. Nothing could. The nearby planets that remained from this solar system didn't stand a chance. They were devoured before any living inhabitants could realize what had happened. The planets were deserted though... long devoid of life. There was nothing left... just the black hole.

Aboard Doombringer VI
The small scout ship hurled through the galaxy at an astounding speed, much faster than it typically would on any normal day. But this wasn't a normal day. Yesterday they had fallen behind on their explorations, and today they had to cover more space than average. Thus... they increased their speed.
Suddenly, with a flash of black, a hole opened up in front of them. The men on the bridge stared into the face of death... and it was not a pretty sight. The black hole sucked the ship in, but not all at once. The first half of the ship got snatched up rapidly, but the last half wasn't as near to the massive gravitational pull. The result was a 300 meter ship being stretched into a length of nearly 300 miles. The molecules of every man onboard were literally stretched apart from each other, pulling them to pieces like taffy.
Needless to say there were no survivors.
Suddenly, something happened. As the ship collided with the tiny black dying star, the fusion reactor of the destroyed ship caused an unstable reaction. The star's remaining energy (which was little) combined with the reactor to create more energy. Within moments, the star began to come to life again. The gravity became less and less as more things were pulled in and joined in the fusion. A new star was born. The name: Gargantua.

60,000 Years Later
The star had spitted out numerous amounts of debris, creating four circular planets revolving around it. Life had sprung up on the fourth, creating the world known as Halion... the earth essentially. First there had been simple life, but soon several new races had sprung up.
One particular new race was powerful and decisive. They were known as the Federation of Lucionn, but essentially they were an organized community of immortals. They found that they could never die... but they could also never be exposed to sunlight. Gargantua was a killer to them, and it soon became their worse enemy. To combat this problem, they became nocturnal... and adapted quickly with the rest of the world.
Problems broke out between the numerous races, and soon only three remained: The Lucionns, Werks, and X'Ions.
In addition to their nocturnality, the Lucionns were typically found of drinking blood. If they lived on earth, they would be considered vampires. However, typically they were far too sophisticated to drink blood without asking. They did it as a ritual to their religion rather than villainy. Besides their pointed teeth, they looked every bit like a human.
The Werks were a small dwarf-like race who had scaly, egg-whitish skin. They typically wore little clothes and would kill anything in sight. They were a bloodthirsty militaristic race, intent on nothing but conquering all of Halion. With the combined forces of Lucionn and X'Ion, they had been defeated... and escaped into the caverns and caves of the world. There they remain to this day in hiding, but still in number.
The X'Ions were a tall, black race, with beady yellow eyes. They were literally completely black save their eyes... and totally invisible except for in the darkness. Their skin and eyes reflected light, so during the day they were invisible. They wore large black cloaks to distinguish where they were for the Lucionns, though they themselves could see each other in the light. They were an old (often living about 300-400 each) and wise race, always playing mind wars... rather than brutal force. They now remain on the surface of Halion, staying aloft from the Lucionns who they openly hate, but are forced to co-exist with due to the threat of the Werks.
Present Day
Quinnrox, Lucionn
In the small town of Quinnrox all was quiet. Standing on the balcony of an old house on the edge of town, a young Lucionn woman hummed a tune to herself. She started quietly, and became louder and she stared at the second moon of the world. It was purple and had a large ring around it, perfectly rotating with Halion. Beautiful.
She typically enjoyed the simple things in life, but also always had a knack for adventure and action. She was involved with the Federation Council even at her young age of thirty-six, which was still considered in the teens pretty much for the Lucionns.
She was well rounded and fit, a perfect girl.
And now she waited. Aleaa waited for something to happen.
