The Society is one of many secret organizations for those who are not entirely human. This Society in particular is composed almost entirely of people with special powers. It is unknown when these people first appeared on Earth, but their powers are hereditary, and have been passed down from generation to generation. After facing persecution by regular humans in the early 14th century, many of these Users, as they are called, went into hiding. They later emerged in disguise as normal people, and have been living among us ever since.
