The Priscus History:

Ah, where should I begin? I cannot tell you when I died just as I cannot tell you when I died and became what I am. I have always just been, perhaps like the sun, moon and stars. But does it really matter? 

I can give you a glimpse of what I've done and witnessed, the greatness of my family and the world around us. And you must be satisfied with as much. 

But let us talk of other things. As you know, my name Marie Priscus and I am the leader of the Priscus clan or the Ancients as we are called. We are the legends…the myths and the oldest and most powerful of the clans remaining after the Clan Wars and probably the most mysterious.

My clan is a strong one…a force to be reckoned with both physically and mentally. Through the ages we have learned the secrets that men have tried to keep hidden. We have grown, changed and adapted with each breath of knowledge that we are given or that we may take. And our powers as immortals grow stronger each day due to this knowledge and perhaps to the many years we have had to perfect them. And most importantly the bonds my family shares with one another will last the tests of time.

Another aspect that separates us from the rest of our kind is that we are the Daywalkers, the few of our kind that are not bound to emerge only at night. For we can enjoy a sunrise, a sunset…a sunny afternoon in a park if we so chose to do so with the rest of the mortal world. But we can do this only because of a special ring I have given each member of my family. A ring made out of dark blue lapis lazuli. A ring that is a symbol of loyalty, trust, strength and companionship. A symbol of everything that my clan represents. Without them, we would be like any other of our kind. 

As I said I do not know where we came from and I think it matters not. We have always just been here, surviving through the ages…watching…waiting. When you have lived on this earth for as long as I have, your past is not what is important. We look to the future and we live for every blessed moment just as you should.

So there you have it, a glimpse into the stuff that legends are made of. But you see…we do exist. We are eternal, mysterious and timeless. We are out there among you and just like you we live for each day and of course…each night. Are you ready to for that taste of immortality?
