The Equinox
Project Overview
This is episode 13 of The_Library.
Episode Summary:
While other humans spend Halloween trick-or-treating and throwing parties just for fun, another group of humans, the Hunters, spend it tracking down immortals and killing them for sport. They do so in the name of “purging the shadows that threaten humanity.” Jessica, a young Hunter, ends up capturing a pure-blooded angel. What she doesn’t realize, however, is that this immortal is a relative of a member in The Council. Which happens to be the governing force for all the immortals. They send the Grim Reapers to hunt her down and reclaim their brethren. There’s going to be some blood spilled this Halloween night.

Young adult, female (16 and up)
Jessica is more into alchemy than hunting. Wants to find a way to harness or at least recreate the abilities of the immortals she comes across. She’s headstrong, snappy and typically only nice to her family and other Hunters. She holds no grudge toward immortals, but simply believes that humans are the more superior beings.
(scoffs, annoyed)
Why are you always so dramatic?
And, from what I remember, the Brightons are the brains of this operation. You all will wait just like you always have. My family and I have always delivered. Don’t start screwing things up. I study to help make advancements, just like the rest of my family does, like they ALWAYS have.
Try anything and you’ll just prove you’re the animals everyone thinks you are. Besides, aren’t you all bound to peace or something like that?
Forest sprite, male (16 and up)
A forest sprite that was once captured by Jessica and has remained in captivity for quite some time. Is used for information on other immortals and helps Jessica capture them. Is free spirited and kind, even to Jessica and the other Hunters.
Ms. Fox, little birds... I want to spend as much time as I can with you, all of you, so that you can tell me what I've missed.
(softly, sad) The little deer... It was in pain?
I’ve been around a long time. Let’s just say I’ve learned to read people.
Pure angel, female (18 and up)
Uriel’s pure angel twin. Extremely passive despite her capabilities. Gets captured by Jessica while she was in the forest looking for medicinal herbs. Everything about her is gentle and serene.
I felt the deer’s gratitude. It was quite hard to miss.
You’ve endured for so long. The weight of your pain is not from a single trauma. It's a weight of time... Yearning...
(calm, smiling softly) I do not blame you for this. I couldn’t.
Dark angel, male (18 and up)
A member of the Council and Ariel’s dark angel twin brother. He loves his sister very dearly and will do absolutely anything for her. Very polite and kind.
“Parella. Lilith. It’s good to see you.”
“It wasn’t the Council calling you. I was going to try and keep this a personal matter...”
“Undeniably so. There’s that twin thing that people talk about, twin telepathy or something of that nature. We’ve been able to do that ever since we were kids.”
Seer, male (18 and up)
One of The Council's guardians, a seer. He and Lilith together are known as The Grim Reapers. Is partially blind thanks to an attack from humans when he was very young. Sent to find and retrieve Ariel.
“(timidly, concerned) Lilith...”
(trying not to panic)
My amulet-- What!? Why?
*takes a deep breath*
We have to be careful. Humans can be too irrational when they get angry.
“If you just let her come with us, this can end here. There won’t be a need for this to escalate any further...”
Dark angel, female (18 and up)
One of The Council's guardians, a dark angel. She and Parella together are known as The Grim Reapers. Has killed humans, whom she despises, in order to protect Parella. Has utmost trust and loyalty for The Council. Gets into multiple altercations with the Hunters and Jessica.
I just don’t want to chance anything. We’re going to save Ariel but I will not hesitate to start a massacre if anything at all happens to you.
I just want to get Ariel and get out of here already. Being around humans even this much just makes my skin crawl.
(annoyed) It’s a promise, you deplorable waste of organs.
(muttering) You humans are so disgusting...
“(somewhat agitated) There’s an agreement to share the catch with everyone, you know?”
“(very annoyed) What is with you Brightons? You always want to go against the grain instead of just cooperating.”
“When were you going to tell me we were actually attacked by immortals?”
young adult, Any (16 and up)
Helps Jessica when the Grim Reapers show up. Prideful and taunting.
“We’ll return as soon as we have our report.”
“(chuckling, prideful) This really is going to be our greatest festival yet.”
Young adult, Any (16 and up)
Helps Jessica when the Grim Reapers show up. Prideful and taunting.
“Don’t try getting in our heads! You don't know anything!”
“We don’t take threats lightly, you know?”
