This is a series of stories based off of the Tedd Dekker Book series. This is a story based on the "Faith Conquers All" aspect of Religion.
There are several important factors:
The Books of Histories-This was created by God-also known, in the time after the end of our world, as Enyon. Anything written in them occurs
Dual Lives-Some people, if aware of thier counterpart in the World After(And Before?) this one, can travel between the two, based on sleep and wake patterns.
Altering the world around you-Those of unshakable Faith can Literally alter the world around them. This does not mean Faith in God, mind you. Faith in your own ability means that you can do whatever you feel like.

Okay... I have to also tell you that this is all fiction. The Circle series started with a Trilogy. Black, White, and Red. In this was a man, named Thomas Hunter, who, in the beginning, was shot in the head by a mobster. He woke up in a dark forest. He wandered a ways, and found a Bright, and colorful forest across a river. He found a bridge, and found himself in a village. The people there were followers of the god Enyon. He found out that the world. He came from was to end in eight months due to a deadly virus.
He then accidentally gets someone from that world to eat a fruit from a tree in the Dark forest, which unleashes evil(Tree Of Knowledge?).
He uses his knowledge from both worlds, and his faith, which aided him in protecting himself, to stop this virus, in the end, Sacrificing his body on this world to do so. He also brought the Books of History over to this world.
Later, these books fell into the hands of a man named David. He sealed them away, realizing thier potential when his son got one, and wrote in it, killing thier pet cat. He started an experiment, trying to find WHAT one with faith could accomplish with these books. A child stole one, and went into the basement, and created Marsuvees Black by writing what he thought was a story. Marsuvees began to Terrorize the nearby town of Paradise, Colorado. In the end, David's Son, aided by a young man named Johnny Drake Recreated Thomas Hunter to do battle with Marsuvee's Black.
Johnny Drake's unshakeble Faith is later used to turn him into a Pawn for an evil group of assassins, where he is brainwashed, and taught how to turn that faith into a weapon, makiing him able to shoot a man from nearly 5000 feet with no problems.He , himself Battles a man Similar to Marsuvees Black, when, By David's intervention, he Realizes who he is, and the FULL EXTENT of what his faith can do, with, or without the books.

The World After ours is an interesting place, The equilvalent to "Christians" Known as The Circle, are constantly beseiged by the Horde(My inspiration for the Dread). They would make a good RP.

Well, there are White Bats, which are angels, and Black Bats which are demons, (I'll look up names later), and then there are The Horde. They are humans who are lost to Enyon. They lost thier way when a man ate from the Black forest, and the Good Forest became desert.
The good humans live at several Colored forests across the world

Daily. Lol, they aren't Aquaman The water represents Baptism. The Horde is a disease, basically, it makes your skin white and flaky, you have your own stench, no matter how much you bathe in normal water, or how much soap you use, and your hair becomes greasy... Care to guess what it represents?
