Welcome to Patrick County, Virginia. Nestled in the Virginia hills there is an area within this county where one can find special stones. These stones are called Fairy Stones. Fairy stones or Lucky Stones as some call them are said to grant those who are lucky enough to find them powers. The magic powers that the stones grant range from widely from divine protection to the ability to control/manipulate an element, but some of these powers come with a cost other then the risk of losing your mind if you ever lose your stone. All who find a Fairy Stone must always keep their stone with them. It is said that if one is unlucky enough to lose their stone that they will go mad.
Many hundreds of years before Chief Powhatan’s reign, fairies were dancing around a spring of water, playing with naiads and wood nymphs, when an elfin messenger arrived from a city far away. He brought news of the death of Christ. When these creatures of the forest heard the story of the crucifixion, they wept. As their tears fell upon the earth, they crystallized to form beautiful crosses.
For many years people held these little crosses in superstitious awe, firm in the belief that they protected the wearer against witchcraft, sickness, accidents and disaster. Fairy stones are staurolite, a combination of silica, iron and aluminum. Staurolite crystallizes at 60 or 90 degree angles, hence the stone's cross-like structure. Found only in rocks once subjected to great heat and pressure, the mineral was formed long, long ago, during the rise of the Appalachian Mountains. The stones are most commonly shaped like St. Andrew’s cross, an "X," but "T" shaped Roman crosses and square Maltese crosses are the most sought-after. The rare staurolite stones are found elsewhere but not in such abundance as at Fairy Stone State Park.

Played by: blueblackrose Age: 16 Sex: Female Hometown: Timberville, Virginia Bio: Lexi grew up in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley near one of the many tourist hot spots. All of her life she has been an outcast, but she could never figure out why. She has always had a fascination with the paranormal and strange. When she learned about the fairy stones she just had to check them out. So when summer break rolled around she talked a couple of her friends into going on a trip to Patrick County to see if they could find the fairy stones. Fairy Stone Type: Maltese Power: Divine Protection (She can protect herself or others, but each time she uses her ability her life is shortened)

Ember soon became a very good quilter then she found out about the anime convention in town. She put her talents to cosplay and loved it. After all the years of going to these conventions the family decided to let the youngest child pick where they would go for vacation. She picked Patrick County, Virginia to go look for Fairy Stones. Ember really didn't care about the stones since she wasn't religous like her sister.

Akira Nakamura Played by: flamethrower1391 Age: 17 Sex: Female Hometown: Gratz, Pennsylvania Bio: I was always into the paranormal and creepy stuff. I didn't have many friends because of it. I would always do cosplays when I could which usually had something to do with something paranormal like shinigamis. I heard of the legend of the Fairy Stones, but I never really believed it until I found one of those stones on a hiking trip through the Appalachian Trail. I don't know where it's coincendence (sp?) or if the legend is indeed real. Only one way to find out. Fairy Stone Type: Maltese Power: Pyrokinesis

Ryoma was no exception and she studied what she could find every chance she got, extending her knowledge about the magical word. One day she stumbled upon magic fairy stones in Virginia, not to far away from her home. She set out to investigate not having any idea where it would take her into a strange new world.
