The Heretics

The Heretic's Physiology
The Heretics are a very unique and special form of supernatural that was created by the most powerful witch in the world. Being of a hybrid nature, they're stronger than most other species, and its thought that they could be the strongest beings on the planet. There are eight heretics in existence that come from different times. Their existence overall, is to help awaken their "mother" every 100 years and find a way to help give her what she wants most.

The Heretics were all born as unnatural witches known as Siphoners; beings that can siphon away magic from any source. Because of this, they're already considered abominations of Nature and is turned away by the witch community. Each Heretic was found by The Mother and given the choice of whether or not they wanted to be transformed into something stronger and better. Once finalized, they turn into a vampires by magic.

Since these Siphoners are able to siphon magic from any source, and with them being shifted into unstoppable, unkillalbe little to no humanity immortals by magic, they now had a constant source of magic to siphon from, thus, making them into Vampire-Witch Hybrids. They were forced to be linked to The Mother via magic, which made them practice a dark form of Magic called Gallio Magic. This linked them together and with the rest of the Gallio bloodline. Though, their issue's only arose.

After their creation, word spread in the witches circle of the rise of these Hybrids, who are horrors of Nature that abuse the craft, which gave them the name, Heretics. A coven of witches known as The Empowered commissioned their selves to hunt down The Heretics and kill them. Spending years creating multiple ruby daggers that can kill them with a single stab, they perused the hunt. Before, The Heretics could do whatever they want and kill whoever they want without being stopped, until The Empowered tried to kill them all at the same time.

After almost succeeding, The Heretics decided to separate from one another and hide in Humanity; meaning to hide in plain sight with the humans. This proved to be successful and only decided to regroup together once it was time for The Black Moon, of which their Mother would awaken. They've repeated this cycle for centuries, unable to settle down and build a life because they knew they would be forced to gather their family together.

Powers & Abilities
"They are based off of The Cullens from Twilight, and the Mikaelsons from The Originals. They're very... old in time but very powerful. They're just as elegant with their powers and abilities, just as they are dangerous and wild. They mainly use their enhanced abilities instead of their magic because magic allows The Empowered to find them, but nonetheless, their magic is something never to be dealt with."
