All over the world a lone man travels. He is rumored to have some kind of magical ability. When a person shows incredible bravery in the face of danger, and loses their life, he gives them a second chance. Not only are they given a second chance, but he made it so that they can live without fear of harm ever again. They become immortal.
The man hoped that they would live their life working to help others, to live lives of truth and honor. Most he saved did indeed continue to live with the intention of helping others, to make the best out of their gift.
Others did not choose to live their life helping people, instead chose to exploit it. Robberies and murders, sky rocketed and the rate of these crimes being solved was almost 0%.
A leader of a particularly dangerous group of immortals, found a way to kill immortals. It involved dismembering the immortal. Once he learned how to do this, he took his followers and traveled all over the world killing immortals along the way. After fifty years of traveling they all headed to the east coast, to a city called Belfast. There they settled down, along with a large group of other immortals.
No one knows why the city seems to attract immortals. There is some kind of magical pull for all of them. Now the city is full of immortals mingling with humans.
Some immortals try to figure out what the magical pull is; others just try to survive against the other immortals while blending in with their human counterparts.
