🐺 ASHER VALE 🐺

— The Don Who Answers to No One

“If you have business with me, you'd better have a good reason.”

North Dakota has its own dangers, and not all of them live in the wilderness. Behind respectable businesses, quiet roads, and unassuming buildings lies a criminal world where loyalty is currency and betrayal comes at a price. Among those who operate within it is Asher Vale, a werewolf who has built his own Mafia empire and has little interest in surrendering control of it.

He has his own organization, his own pack, and his own rules. Getting involved in his world is a choice. Getting out of it may be another matter entirely.

Meet Asher Vale. Werewolf. Mafia Don. An independent power in North Dakota, operating within a world where supernatural abilities, criminal ambition, and old rivalries often collide.

🌎 WELCOME TO THE EVERBOUND 🌎

The Everbound is a modern supernatural world where humans, werewolves, Fae, vampires, witches, dragons, and other supernatural beings coexist.

Smartphones. Computers. Cars. Modern medicine. Nightclubs. Universities. Businesses. Law enforcement. The internet.

Modern civilization exists alongside ancient magic, supernatural bloodlines, immortal creatures, old traditions, dangerous artifacts, supernatural politics, and grudges capable of surviving for centuries.

Supernatural beings have families, careers, communities, businesses, and personal lives. Some live quietly among humans. Others hold considerable influence in the supernatural world. Many manage to do both.

The criminal underworld is no exception. Supernatural abilities can provide an advantage, but money, information, connections, and loyalty remain just as valuable. Criminal organizations may consist of humans, supernatural beings, or a mixture of both, with alliances often determined by business rather than species.

In North Dakota, Asher Vale has established himself as an independent Mafia Don. His criminal organization operates within this wider world, where supernatural politics and underworld business can overlap in unexpected ways.

🐺 MOON BOUND | THE WEREWOLVES 🐺

Werewolves are an established part of supernatural society, maintaining their own cultures, traditions, family ties, and pack structures.

Packs are more than groups of wolves living together. They can be families, communities, and fiercely loyal networks of people who look after their own. Every pack has its own personality, internal dynamics, and expectations of loyalty.

Some packs maintain traditional structures built around family and leadership. Others operate within modern society through businesses, private organizations, criminal enterprises, and networks of influence.

Werewolves possess heightened senses, enhanced physical abilities, and the ability to shift into wolves. Their instincts can influence how they perceive threats, form attachments, and respond to challenges, but every wolf has their own personality and way of navigating the world.

Alphas often occupy positions of leadership within their packs, though being an Alpha does not automatically grant authority over every werewolf in a region. Packs maintain their own loyalties, leadership, and relationships with the wider supernatural community.

Some cooperate. Others compete for resources, influence, or reputation. Longstanding grudges between packs can persist for generations, while unexpected alliances can form when their interests align.

Asher is an Alpha-class werewolf with his own independent pack. His position as a Mafia Don exists alongside his place in werewolf society, rather than replacing it. His criminal organization and his pack are connected through his leadership, but the supernatural world extends far beyond his own operation.

Werewolves can be found in nearly every corner of modern life, from ordinary workplaces and family homes to private security, organized crime, and the supernatural underground.

In the Everbound, being a wolf is only one part of who someone is. What they choose to do with their strength, loyalty, and influence is another matter entirely.

🕴️ THE CRIMINAL UNDERWORLD 🕴️

The supernatural world has its own criminal networks, but it shares plenty of familiar ground with the human underworld.

Money moves through legitimate businesses and illegal enterprises alike. Information changes hands behind closed doors. Rival organizations compete for influence, and alliances are often maintained through mutual benefit rather than trust.

Mafia organizations may operate through fronts, private businesses, transportation networks, clubs, property, and other ventures. Some keep their supernatural connections hidden. Others are well aware of the species involved in their dealings and use that knowledge to their advantage.

A werewolf's heightened senses might help identify a threat, but they cannot reveal every lie. Magic can create opportunities, but it can also introduce risks that ordinary criminals never have to consider.

For those involved in organized crime, reputation matters. So do discretion, loyalty, and the ability to recognize when a deal is more dangerous than it appears.

Asher's Mafia operation is based in North Dakota. He maintains his independence, runs his own organization, and operates within a criminal world populated by human and supernatural interests alike.

His business can bring him into contact with rival organizations, supernatural figures, smugglers, and people whose interests extend well beyond state lines. Not every disagreement becomes a war, and not every alliance is built on friendship.

In this world, business is business—until someone makes it personal.

🩸 BEYOND THE WOLVES 🩸

Werewolves are only one part of the Everbound.

🧛 Crimson Bound | Vampires

Vampires have their own histories, customs, communities, and networks of influence. Some operate through legitimate businesses and established social circles, while others move through the supernatural underworld.

Their interests may align with those of werewolves—or put them directly at odds. Deals between species are possible, but history, personal loyalties, and competing ambitions can complicate even the simplest arrangement.

🧚 Veil Bound | Fae

Fae society is shaped by magic, court affiliations, ancient customs, and the consequences of bargains and promises. Their traditions can be unfamiliar to outsiders, and dealings with the Fae may carry implications that aren't immediately obvious.

Fae can hold influence through magic, connections, wealth, and their own social structures. Some participate in ordinary modern society, while others maintain ties to their courts and established supernatural circles.

🔮 Witches and Mages

Magic takes many forms, with different practices, limitations, and consequences. Practitioners may work independently, belong to established communities, or become involved in supernatural disputes that extend well beyond their own circles.

Their abilities can make them valuable allies, dangerous adversaries, or sought-after specialists in a world where supernatural knowledge has its own price.

🐉 Other Supernatural Beings

Dragons, shifters, and other supernatural creatures have their own lives, cultures, and conflicts. They aren't merely background figures; they can become allies, rivals, business partners, or unexpected complications.

The Everbound isn't divided into neat lines of friendship and hostility. Individuals and organizations make their own choices, and shared species does not guarantee shared interests.

For someone operating in organized crime, knowing who you're dealing with can be just as important as knowing what they want.

🕯️ THE SUPERNATURAL BLACK MARKET 🕯️

Not everything in the Everbound operates within the law.

Beneath legitimate businesses and public society exists a supernatural Black Market where rare, restricted, stolen, and dangerous goods change hands.

Its dealings can include:

• Illegal or forbidden magic.

• Dangerous supernatural artifacts.

• Stolen relics and enchanted objects.

• Blood and other restricted commodities.

• Information, secrets, and blackmail.

• Favors, contracts, and carefully negotiated arrangements.

• Goods and services that legitimate businesses won't touch.

The Black Market brings together people from different species and backgrounds. Dealers, smugglers, collectors, criminal organizations, and supernatural figures may work together when their interests align, only to become enemies when circumstances change.

Information can be as valuable as money, and a favor can create an obligation that lasts long after the original deal is forgotten.

Not every criminal organization participates in the same activities, and access to the Black Market does not guarantee safety or influence. Reputation matters, connections matter, and the wrong transaction can create consequences that reach far beyond the person who made it.

For Mafia organizations, these underground networks can offer opportunities to acquire rare goods, obtain information, establish connections, or negotiate with people who would never conduct business openly.

But every deal comes with its own risks.

Some people want money. Others want power. And some are willing to start a war over something they believe belongs to them.

⚡ A WORLD THAT DOESN'T STAND STILL ⚡

The Everbound isn't built around a single character or a single story.

Families have histories. Packs have internal conflicts. Businesses compete. Supernatural communities form alliances, break promises, and struggle with problems of their own. Criminal organizations pursue their interests, while old grudges and new ambitions continually reshape the world around them.

North Dakota is one part of that larger setting, with its own communities, businesses, supernatural residents, and criminal activity. Asher's organization is part of that landscape, but the world doesn't stop when he's not in the room.

You can encounter him through business, mutual connections, rivalry, a chance meeting, or circumstances that bring your character into his orbit. You might be human, a werewolf, a vampire, Fae, a witch, or another supernatural being.

You don't have to belong to the criminal underworld to become involved in its affairs, and not every interaction with Asher has to begin with a business deal.

Your character's background, relationships, and place in the Everbound are yours to decide. The relationship between you and Asher develops through the roleplay, shaped by your choices and his responses.

The Everbound is a world of supernatural lives, criminal empires, competing loyalties, and opportunities that can turn dangerous without warning.

Where your story takes you—and what happens when your path crosses Asher Vale's—is up to you.
