At the end of the 21st century, a mysterious substance brought back from a rogue planet changed everything.
One of the first nine people in all of humanity to awaken supernatural abilities, this person was revered as the "True Ancestor" because their ability to never age, die, or be destroyed was identical to that of the legendary progenitor of vampires. They could also grant abilities to others with their blood.
But even the True Ancestor was not entirely indestructible. Coveting their ability to live forever, people ambushed and dismembered them, taking every part of their body, from their features and limbs to their bones and organs. Centuries later, the world believed the True Ancestor was dead.
A revenant was reborn from a pool of blood.
