Minuit Academy was founded in 1682 by a very powerful Welsh lycan who went by the name of William Callaghan. Callaghan had spent the entirety of his life being degraded and the victim of prejudice. Yet he bore no ill will to the humans and other species of immortals. He wished for nothing more than for a place that all species of immortal could come together as a group, and live in peace with the humans near them, not living in fear. Upon traveling to the New World, he discovered the perfect area of land in New England.
After living in the New World for several months, and having contemplated his ideas of what to do with the land, he met a local girl by the name of Laura Donovan, who had immigrated there from Ireland. Laura was a vampire. While their differences did not stop the two of them from falling in love, they had to keep it a secret from all other immortals, who would be incensed at the very idea of it. The two shared their dreams and together worked to build a safe environment for young immortals. A school. Where they would never have to be afraid of anything.
They ran their school in private for several years in happiness, until Laura gave birth to their baby girl, Artemis. When this happened, there was no way to hide it from the rest of the world. They tried to keep to themselves for as long as they could. But one night, when Artemis was about twelve years old, her parents were killed by a coven of vampires who invaded and trashed the school. Artemis lived in an orphanage. Afterwards, she wandered the globe for centuries before finally returning to continue her parents' dream. The school has been renovated, and a staff is being hired. Will so many different species of immortals be able to get along?
