About the world:

Erevale

Erevale is a city that never truly wakes — a place caught between centuries, where progress gnaws at its own roots. The skyline bristles with steel towers and glass domes, but the streets below still twist like veins from an older age. The air is thick — part fog, part smoke. Rain slicks the cobblestones.
In the Highcourt District, light is sterile and white — filtered through reinforced windows and tall buildings of black marble and chrome. People move fast there, their reflections ghostlike in mirrored walls. But venture down to the Old Quarter, and time slows. Narrow alleys choke with ivy and shadow. Iron balconies sag under the weight of rust and rain. At night, Erevale comes alive in a fever dream of neon and fog—flickering signs, the faint echo of a violin from some unseen place, the jeering from the Velvet Vein Casino drowning out the screams from the pit below. It is both beautiful and corrupt: A city held together by fear, the struggle for survival, and the stubborn, burning embers of hope.

The Demi-Human Regulation Act

Officially, demi-humans are not recognized as citizens. They’re categorized as bio-sentient assets: living beings with limited rights, permitted to exist under supervision. The government claims this is to “protect humanity from the unpredictable nature of hybrid species.” In practice, it’s legalized enslavement.

The Office for Paranatural Affairs is responsible for applications and complaints regarding demihumans. Outwardly, they appear professional, helpful, and law-abiding. Behind closed doors, corruption and trafficking take place.

Pros - Paranatural rescue organization

Once too lazy to come up with a name, they now call themselves "the Pros," mockingly emphasizing that they're the ones with the brains (and, above all, the foresight). Run by a mixture of humans and demi-humans who escaped trafficking or were kicked out by their owners. They smuggle demi-humans out of the city, forge new identities, care for the traumatized, and find homes for strays.

The White Paw

An organization that operates in the shadows but with a noble purpose: protecting demihumans from the corruption in the city and rescue them from being trafficked, sold and bred. They work together with the PROs and handle the more dangerous parts.
