1.TheAssassin.
The Assassins (from Persian: ???????? Arabic: ???????? ?ashsh?sh?n) is the name used to refer to the medieval Nizari Ismailis, particularly those of Persia and Syria, by Westerners. Often characterized as a secret order of assassins led by a mysterious "Old Man of the Mountain," the Nizari Ismailis were an Islamic sect that formed in the late 11th century from a split within Ismailism, itself a branch of Shia Islam. In time, the Nizaris began to pose a military threat to Sunni Seljuq authority within the Persian territories by capturing and inhabiting several mountain fortresses under the leadership of Hassan-i Sabbah, who is typically regarded as the founder of the Assassins. While "Assassins" typically refers to the entire medieval Nizari sect, in fact only a class of acolytes known as the fidai actually engaged in assassination work. Lacking their own army, the Nizari relied on these trained warriors to carry out espionage and assassinations. The Nizari were feared by the Crusaders, who referred to them collectively as Assassins.
The name "Assassin" is often said to derive from the Arabic word Hashishin or "users of hashish", a misnomer thought to have been derogatory and used by their adversaries during the Middle Ages. Originally applied to the Nizari Ismaelis by the Mustali Ismailis during the fall of the decaying Ismaili Fatimid Empire and the separation of the two streams, it is possible that the term hashishiyya or hashishi in Muslim sources was used metaphorically in its abusive sense (i.e. "social outcasts", "low-class rabble", etc.), while the literal interpretation of this term in referring to the Nizaris (as hashish consuming intoxicated assassins) may be rooted in the fantasies of medieval Westerners.
Ever since, the word "assassin" has been used to describe a hired or professional killer, paving the way for the related term "assassination", which denotes any action involving murder of a high-profile target for political reasons.
2.TheWarlord.
A warlord is a person who has both military and civil control over a subnational area due to the presence of armed forces who are loyal to the warlord rather than to a central authority.
The term can also mean one who espouses the ideal that war is necessary, and has the means and authority to engage in war. Today, the word has a strong connotation that the person exercises far more power than their official title or rank legitimately permits. Under feudalism, by contrast, the local military leader may enjoy great autonomy and a personal army, and still derive legitimacy from formal fealty to a central authority.
3.TheAragami.
Aragami - fierce deity.Aragami.
An Aragami ("violent god"/"Fierce Spirit"), while apparently only one being, is actually a colony of hundreds of thousands of semi-sentient single-celled organisms under a cell core; that is, one Aragami is a superorganism with swarm intelligence, taking the form of a variety of lifeforms, plant or animal, organic or artificial, even real or mythical.
4.TheTrans.
Transgender is the state of one's gender identity or gender expression not matching one's assigned sex. Being transgender is independent of sexual orientation; transgender people may identify as heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, etc.; some may consider conventional sexual orientation labels inadequate or inapplicable to them. The definition of transgender includes:
"Of, relating to, or designating a person whose identity does not conform unambiguously to conventional notions of male or female gender roles, but combines or moves between these."
"People who were assigned a sex, usually at birth and based on their genitals, but who feel that this is a false or incomplete description of themselves."
"Non-identification with, or non-presentation as, the sex (and assumed gender) one was assigned at birth."
A transgender individual may have characteristics that are normally associated with a particular gender and identify elsewhere on the traditional gender continuum, or exist outside of it as other, agender, gender-neutral, genderqueer, non-binary, third gender, etc. Transgender people may also identify as bigender, pangender, or along several places on either the traditional transgender continuum or the more encompassing continuums that have been developed in response to recent, significantly more detailed studies. Furthermore, many transgender people experience a period of identity development that includes better understanding one's self-image, self-reflection, and self-expression. More specifically, the degree to which individuals feel genuine, authentic, and comfortable within their external appearance and accept their genuine identity is referred to as transgender congruence.
5.TheAlpha.
In social animals, an alpha is the individual in the community with the highest rank. Male or female individuals or both can be alphas, depending on their species. Where one male and one female fulfill this role, they are referred to as the alpha pair. Other animals in the same social group may exhibit deference or other symbolic signs of respect particular to their species towards the alpha or alphas.
In hierarchical social animals, alphas usually gain preferential access to food and other desirable items or activities, though the extent of this social effect varies widely by species. Male and/or female alphas may gain preferential access to sex or mates, and in some species only alphas or an alpha pair is permitted to reproduce.
Alphas may achieve their status by means of superior physical prowess and/or through social efforts and building alliances within the group.
The position of alpha also changes in some species, usually through a physical fight between a dominant and subordinate animal. Such fights may or may not be to the death, with relevant behavior varying between circumstance and species.
6.TheBeta.
Beta animals often act as second-in-command to the reigning alpha or alphas and will act as new alpha animals if an alpha dies or is otherwise no longer considered an alpha. In some species of birds, males pair up in twos when courting, the beta male aiding the alpha male. In wolves, the beta male is not generally allowed to mate with the females, but if the old alpha is removed or dies, he takes over the alpha's females, becoming the new alpha.
7.TheOmega.
Omega (usually rendered ?) is an antonym used to refer to the lowest caste of the hierarchical society. Omega animals are subordinate to all others in the community, and are expected by others in the group to remain submissive to everyone. Omega animals may also be used as communal scapegoats or outlets for frustration, or given the lowest priority when distributing food.

Continuity (fiction).

Continuity (fiction).
In fiction, continuity (also called time-scheme) is consistency of the characteristics of people, plot, objects, and places seen by the reader or viewer over some period of time. It is relevant to several media.
Continuity is particularly a concern in the production of film and television due to the difficulty of rectifying an error in continuity after shooting has wrapped up. It also applies to other art forms, including novels, comics, and video games, though usually on a smaller scale.
Most productions have a script supervisor on hand whose job is to pay attention to and attempt to maintain continuity across the chaotic and typically non-linear production shoot. This takes the form of a large amount of paperwork, photographs, and attention to and memory of large quantities of detail, some of which is sometimes assembled into the story bible for the production. It usually regards factors both with-in the scene and often even technical details including meticulous records of camera positioning and equipment settings. The use of a Polaroid camera was standard but has since been replaced by the advent of digital cameras. All of this is done so that ideally all related shots can match, despite perhaps parts being shot thousands of miles and several months apart. It is a less conspicuous job, though, because if done perfectly, no one will ever notice.
In comic books, continuity has also come to mean a set of contiguous events, sometimes said to be "set in the same universe" (see fictional crossover and fictional universe) or "separate universes" (see intercompany crossover).
Continuity errors.
Whilst most continuity errors are subtle, such as changes in the level of drink in a character's glass or the length of a cigarette, others can be more noticeable, such as sudden drastic changes in appearance of a character. Such errors in continuity can ruin the illusion of realism and affect suspension of disbelief.
In cinema, special attention must be paid to continuity because films are rarely shot in the order in which they are presented. The shooting schedule is often dictated by location permit issues. A character may return to Times Square in New York City several times throughout a movie, but as it is extraordinarily expensive to close off Times Square, those scenes will likely be filmed all at once to reduce permit costs. Weather, the ambience of natural light, cast and crew availability, or any number of other circumstances can also influence a shooting schedule.
Measures against continuity errors in film.
Film production companies use various techniques to prevent continuity errors. First would be to film all the shots for a particular scene together, and all shots of consecutive scenes together (if the scenes take place together, with no break between them in the film's timeline). This allows actors to remain in costume, in character, and in the same location (and with the same weather, if shooting on location).
The second major technique is for costume designers, production designers, prop masters, and make-up artists to take instant photographs of actors and sets at the beginning and end of each day's shooting (once made possible by Polaroid cameras, now done with digital cameras and cell phones as well). This allows the various workers to check each day's clothing, set, props, and make-up against a previous day's.
The third is to avoid shooting on location entirely, but instead film everything on a studio set. This allows weather and lighting to be controlled (as the shooting is indoors), and for all clothing and sets to be stored in one place to be hauled out the next day from a secure location.
Editing errors.
Editing errors can occur when a character in a scene references a scene or incident that has not occurred yet, or of which they should not yet be aware.
An example of an editing error can be seen in the film It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963), where a scene of people climbing a slope at the start is seen from below and then replayed from above.
Visual errors.
Visual errors are instant discontinuities occurring in visual media such as film and television. Items of clothing change colors, shadows get longer or shorter, items within a scene change place or disappear, etc.
One of the earliest examples of a visual error appears in Charlie Chaplin's 1914 movie The Property Man. Here, in a supposedly smooth step from one room to another, the Tramp loses his hat in one room, but it is instantly back on his head as he enters the next room. Rather "loose" plots and a lack of continuity editing made most early films rife with such errors.
Another example occurs in the 1998 film Waking Ned, when two of the film's characters, Jackie and Michael, are walking through a storm towards Ned's house. The umbrella they are under is black during their conversation as they walk towards the house (filmed from slightly above and to the front), yet after cutting to a lower shot (filmed from behind Jackie), Michael walks onscreen from the right holding an umbrella that is not black but beige, with a brown band at the rim.
Though visual continuity errors are logically confined to visual media, parallel mistakes can occur in text. In "The Miller's Tale" in Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, a door is ripped off its hinges only to be slowly closed again in the next scene.
Plot errors.
A plot error, or a plot hole as it's commonly known, reflects a failure in the consistency of the created fictional world. A character might state he was an only child, yet later mention a sibling. In the TV show Cheers, Frasier Crane's wife Lilith mentions Frasier's parents are both dead. When the character was spun off into Frasier, his father became a central character with, in a case of retroactive continuity, the explanation that Frasier was embarrassed about his father's lowbrow attitudes and thus claimed his death. This is a frequent occurrence in sitcoms, where networks may agree to continue a show, but only if a certain character is emphasized, leading other minor characters to become victims of Chuck Cunningham Syndrome (i.e. written out of the show with no further mention of the character's fate or even its existence, as was the case with Chuck Cunningham on Happy Days), while the emphasized character (usually a breakout character) (as in the case of Frasier Crane) develops a more complete back story that ignores previous, more simplified back stories.
Homeric Nod.
A Homeric nod (sometimes heard as 'Even Homer nods') is a continuity error. It has its origins in Homeric epic.
The proverbial phrase for it was coined by the Roman poet Horace in his Ars poetica:
"... et idem
indignor quandoque bonus dormitat Homerus
... and yet I also become annoyed whenever the great Homer nods off."
There are numerous continuity errors in Homer that resemble "nods", as for example:
In Iliad Menelaos kills a minor character, Pylaimenes, in combat; who is later still alive to witness the death of his son.
In Iliad 9.165-93 three characters, Phoinix, Odysseus, and Aias set out on an embassy to Achilleus; however, at line 182 the poet uses a verb in the dual form to indicate that there are only two people going; at lines 185ff. verbs in the plural form are used, indicating more than two; but another dual verb appears at line 192 ("the two of them came forward").
In modern Homeric scholarship many of Homer's "nods" are explicable as the consequences of the poem being retold and improvised by generations of oral poets. So in the second case cited above, it is likely that two different versions are being conflated: one version with an embassy of three people, another with just two people.
Alexander Pope was inclined to give Homeric nods the benefit of the doubt:
Those oft are Stratagems which Errors seem,
Nor is it Homer Nods, but We that Dream. - Essay on Criticism
Modern usage.
In his online column, Best of The Web Today, James Taranto of The Wall Street Journal often uses the phrase "Homer Nods" as the title of a retraction or correction.
Aging discrepancies.
The practice of accelerating the age of a television character (usually a child or teenager) in conflict with the timeline of a series and/or the real-world progression of time is popularly known as Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome, or SORAS. Children unseen on screen for a time might reappear portrayed by an actor several years older than the original. Usually coinciding with a recast, this rapid aging is typically done to open up the character to a wider range of storylines, and to attract younger viewers. A recent example of this occurring is in the BBC's Merlin series, in which Mordred is initially played by a young child in Season 4, yet suddenly grows up into his late teens in time for the start of Season 5, with the rest of the characters aging by only three years.
Deliberate continuity errors.
Sometimes a work of fiction may deliberately employ continuity errors, usually for comedy. For example, the Marx Brothers' classic film Duck Soup, at the climax of the film, the camera shows a shot of Groucho Marx speaking a line, followed by a shot of something else happening, followed by another shot of Groucho. Each time, Groucho's hat changes, usually to something more outrageous than before (a Napoleonic hat, a Prussian hat, etc.).
Dealing with errors.
When continuity mistakes have been made, explanations are often proposed by either writers or fans to smooth over discrepancies. Fans sometimes make up explanations for such errors that may or may not be integrated into canon; this has come to be colloquially known as fanwanking (a term originally coined by the author Craig Hinton to describe excessive use of continuity). Often when fans do not agree with one of the events in a story (such as the death of a favorite character), they will choose to ignore the event in question so that their enjoyment of the franchise is not diminished. When the holder of the intellectual property discards all existing continuity and starts from scratch it is known as rebooting. Fans call a less extreme literary technique that erases one episode the reset button. See also fanon.
Discrepancies in past continuity are sometimes made deliberately; this is known as retconning. Retcons are also sometimes used to either correct or cover up a perceived error. These changes may be made either by the same writer who made it, or more commonly by an author that has taken over the creative lead of a corporate owned show or publication. Not to be confused with the continuance of a reality (continuality).
Real time programs vs traditional films
Television programs like 24, in which actors have to appear as if it is the same day for 24 consecutive episodes, have raised public recognition of continuity. However, traditional films have frequently had much of the same sort of the issues to deal with; film shoots may last several months and as scenes are frequently shot out of story sequence, footage shot weeks apart may be edited together as part of the same day's action in the completed film. In some ways, 24 presents a simpler situation, as costumes and hairstyles generally should not change very frequently; in many feature films a range of different hairstyles and costumes must be created, changed, and then recreated exactly, as various scenes are shot.

New Jersey can be thought of as five regions, based on natural geography and population. An imperial political structure established and maintained in two ways: (i) as a territorial empire of direct conquest and control with force or (ii) as a coercive, hegemonic empire of indirect conquest and control with power. Northeastern New Jersey, the Gateway Region, lies closest to Manhattan in New York City, and many residents commute into the city to work. The term empire is associated with other words such as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. Empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations.

Lost boys - Story.#2

Lost boys - Story.

Riding the spirit horses of the land like they had been taught, like natives from the americas but then in the old country, yes, its Yumanopolis.  The modern world did not really stress or impress them, half spirit, half of the world, pressumably even happy but who was able to see that, only their teachers. their parents, their friends would see something else, normal boys making a life, studying, socialize as everybody else does but………………

Dark shadows on the horizon, darkness came from yonder horizon, dreams burned by dark magick and sinister thoughts, wants and deeds. Seeping in to these carefree lives, boys full of life getting heavy and darker as the dark ones came and overtook them and all they new. The teachers seem to fade and the darkness tried to seduce them, took years to seduce them but………….thankfully failed in their attempts. 

The darkness came from within our own ranks, individuals of nihillistic mind and human hungers that thought to steal all the knowledge and imagined riches for themselves and usurp worldly powers in the process. 

A fifty year war in the shadows of the real world, rolling between dark and the light for unimaginable powers of our family.  No bad or sick trick was held back to destroy the boys, now the lsot boys, all had given up on the dream, THE DREAM, so everybody thought.

Best laid plans, older than the boys themselves, older than the family memebers they ran with kept working. Doors opened to dimensions untold unspoken of, humans did not know, did not want to know, there is a certain power beyond humanness.  Its name, even i don’t know its real name, although i am in the middle of this stry, part of it, a prime memeber of thsoe that defeated the dark ones that came to take over over family and everything we stood for. The Craft might be a name for it.  

The boys split up, each of us chose a different path to stay sane and busy as if we knew something big came, we were just waiting for the right time and moment, an opening of the right space/time to make our final move.

We accepted the feraks foisted upon us, worked with them, lived with them, kept learning the craft as it came in to our lives and grew stronger in secret. Each playing our part as we were the 47 ronin waiting for the right moment to strike and win the day. It didn’t really come, it was worse or even better. One of us was the chosen one,one chosen by the elders way back when in time, one perfectly suited to win the day with powers none of us dreamed off, could dream off.  

And so it happened that we suddenly were aided by sourcerors from the past and present against our dark enemy and the ONE, he drew all the fire towards him, giving the others the time and room to breathe. Exposed himself to the world and the dark ones that were waiting to take and usurp all that pur family was and could be but then only for their own enrichment and glory. 

The ONE, he fought with all the mahick he could muster as if the fate of the human world depended on it, his body in tethers/tathers, a computergame like king of the hill battle for the knowledge and power of our family fought at many fronts at the same time and…………through time and space taking years before all the enemies were beaten and all their powers taken from them. The lost boys were no more, they were men and they had defeated the enemy because of the sacrifice of the ONE. You think the ONE died, no, he lives, like you and i, you think he is crazy because of all he saw and did, no, he is just like you and me only………………….stronger than any sourcror who ever lived. That is the price paid for this war of attrition. The powers of lights as the ONE said had to win or everything would be lost……………….that is the really scary thing about it, everything that is the world of humans……………….imagine what happens to the human world when sourcerors of darkness live out their sins in the world at the expense of humans, people they look down upon……………imagine that, think about that. Like giving the Nazis unlimited power to rule the world and all that what could follow.

That is what we did, still are doing, cleaning the world of all the dark magick that spilled because of the war that raged in seceret in and under the human world and nobody knows about it, nobody wants to know, not really, it is too scary to think about, for some anyway. But for us, the socalled lost boys, we dusted ourseleves of and started to build, find our teachers again, help them, repair and dust them off and rebuild our world because it is beautifull and enriches the world, it helps the humans to be better. But that is maybe another story, for another time. 

Who am i to tell you this story, i am nobody, just soemone who was there and new what to do when nobody else knew and……….i don’t like to give up, never give up, never surrender, even when the possibility of death was on the table.

The police and The Police, one for commoners and one for those, well....what should we call them..........sorcerers, witches, magicians, brothers and sisters. Even when the “Book of Pitfalls” is written all of us get swayed by powers eating away at our discipline.  For love, greed, envy we can and do commit offences, some do, against a higher order. Lets not call them sins, just weaknesses we forgot about as we grew into the beings we liked to become. Ofcourse the first power tests us, that is what the cosm, the universe is about. 

Some abuse the weaknesses of man more heinously than others and then.......the calavera step in.  Men and women tested beyond their limits to rise clean from the darknessess the first power or other people of power threw at them.

Calavera; Someone has to watch over the world of the humans, they live in a world full of powers eating at them, making them commit offences without even knowing it and the Calavera wipe those things out of the earthly realm, keeping the humans safe. 

There are few who pass up earthly ambitions and turn to the spirit, the first power to become more and everything they already had, hadn’t they been held back by personal daemons hiding in their personal lives. Some can’t stand listening to the same record over and over, reliving each song over and over untill they die. Those are the ones who become Calavera.  Dead to the world but alive, acting in the world as any human being.
