Perpetuals

Sleepless and enigmatic, subtly shape the world while grappling with their mysterious origins and silently recruiting the wakeful born

Commonly known as the "Perpetuals," is a clandestine society formed by individuals harboring a genetic mutation that abolishes the need for sleep, thereby significantly impacting diverse domains like science, art, and music. Adhering to the belief that their perpetual wakefulness stems from an ancient, possibly extraterrestrial or advanced human lineage, they perform rituals, notably the "Ritual of Luminare," which epitomizes their unity and mission. The society, segmented into factions with distinct objectives, secures its perpetuation by recruiting newborns exhibiting their sleeplessness trait, occasionally employing ethically dubious methods, while exploring themes of concealment, moral dilemmas, and their societal impact.
