Okay, I have never shared my ideas with anyone before, but here it goes.... I'm having trouble making this story unique, and I want something that will really make it stick out. Otherwise... it's just gonna be your run of the mill vampire story... ::sigh:: Anyways, here it is... ^__^
An overview of the back story... it begins in colonial days, in the year 1692, during the Salem witch hunts... Eleanor Foster is a 13 year old witch. She has a close relationship with her younger brother, 9 year old Jonathan. The two have always been connected mind to mind, able to share each other's thoughts and feelings. Their father, a supertitious preacher, notices their strange nature. After a particularly disturbing incident, he has Eleanor and her mother, also a witch, burned at the stake. Jonathan manages to escape, but he's soon captured by a vampire by the name of Moryson, and changed.
I haven't decided exactly what to do with Moryson, but I know he isn't a nice guy... to tell the truth, I was thinking about having him rape the young boy... but I just don't want Jonathan to end up being your normal quiet, withdrawn, ruthless vampire with a haunted past... that's so overused... I need something ORIGINAL!! ::sighs:: But anywhoo...
This is where the actual story would pick up... the setting is New York City, present day. Keeran Moon is a psychic witch... a member of the NYPD. She's an
elemental, which is my term for a psychic who can control a certain element. Her element is dark... ((not a real element I know)) She can call shadows and noctural animals and all this cool stuff... She also happens to be the reincarnation of Eleanor... ^^
Jonathan is now a powerful vampire known as Loki, taken from Norse mythology... ((I may change the name.)) He has just succeeded in murdering his old master and tormentor, Moryson. He came to New York in search of territory and allies... He already has several, including his dyampire son, Bade. A
dyampire is my term for a child between two vampires, and a
dhampire is a child between a vampire and a human. When Loki and Keeran meet...

The actual story is MUCH longer and more complex... but I thought that was probably all you guys could stand for a while... ^^;;; Any kind of suggestions for anything, especially how to make it original, would be very much appreciated.
