welcome to the town of otega valley, located a few miles north of boulder, colorado. situated between rolling hills, mountain tops, and frigid streams, you'd think otega would be filled to the brim with locals and tourists alike.. and while lots of tourists do come around during summer, the town's population isn't exactly something to be proud of. everyone knows everyone and word travels faster than you can say "oops," (everyone knows it). you're considered rude if you don't show up to the neighborhood barbecues and birthday parties. your reputation follows you everywhere you go. understandably, the small town atmosphere isn't for everyone, but many families do enjoy otega's isolated scenery; some families have even been planted here for generations. these are the ancestors that know all otega's secrets; the most notable one being that otega is not only inhabited by humans, but also vampires. fortunately they're quick and calculating, and they use compulsion to make sure all memories are wiped whenever they need to feed, which has kept their existence in the dark for centuries. but, on top of that, there are a few other secrets that most do not know. 1) the vicious animal killings that have been going on lately haven't been due to the vampire problem (or, seeing as most people don't know about vampires, the killer animal problem). there is another living species currently residing within the town's borders. this species is known as the black eyed kids, a half-breed of vampire and human, resulting from vampire dna being grafted into human beings. the reason they're known as the black eyed kids is because the grafting didn't mesh completely with their body systems and the vampiric compulsion gene mutated into an opaque black cornea that covers the entirety of their eyes, sclera and all. all of them are young-looking (teenagers and under) and they're not quite as delicate when it comes to feeding. 2) there's a human navy force still fighting against all other supernatural species even though they were disbanded by the mayor. they call themselves summus solis, which literally translates from latin to 'of the sun,' and they believe that by getting rid of vampires they'll finally be able to call their town safe. they'll go to any lengths to see this goal through, although they don't know about black eyed kids as of yet. no one does, really. but once they're find out, there will be no way to avoid conflict between all parties. jobs, lives, and entire existences are at stake; everyone will come out with a few scratches but the question is, who will come out with the least? and, more importantly, who's side are you on?
