Fantasy

everything in the world emits energy waves, auras; long ago human awarness of them was minimal barely a handful had the power to perceive them, but through human intervention the dormant energy became active, changing the world and the people in it.
History has been divided in 3 eras.

Era one is close to our own world, those who could percive auras were few, it was an inheritable ability and those that tried to train themselves to gain it rarely succeded; people who could interact actively with it were unable to see the world's energy and had barely any control, making their powers unstable.
Is during this time that a person with active control gained the ability to see the energy, with this they gained more control of their power but also realized how limited it was when comppared to the grand scale of nature itself.
In an attempt to gain more power this person tried to take energy that did not belong to them, it worked for a while but eventually their energy became corrupted and caused their death; the corrupt energy then took form on it's own and became a Monster that fed on others energy.
The Monster consumed energy and as it did the world produced more energy to replace the lost one, since the monster was still made from energy, this produced an exccess of uncorrupted energy wich resulted in more and more people gaining the sight over time.
Era one ends oficially in the year 1638 marked after the defeat of the Monster at hands of a powerful gifted person, this ended causing more harm that good though as the lingering corruption took from as multiple ones started to appear shortly after and then spreading fast.

Era two is similar to our world but plagued with attacks of corrupted energy that have started to become known as The Taint, it quickly becomes apparent only those with the ability to see auras can actually tell where to hurt them, as their bodies aren't completely solid, but only those with active control in the form of psychic powers could hurt them.
Both types of gifted ones become more common as more Tainted begin to appear. They are still mainly passed down by blood but one can gain the sight by training themselves, thought this training is more succesful when done by an active gited one or close to someone that already posses the sight; active abilities can't be gained if one is not born with them but families with the sight may have children born with them.
As the world adapts it becomes the job of psychics to fight the Tainted, most being also trained to gain the sight or working with someone that has it. As time advances active abilities start to become more varied and having the sight along with them becomes normal.
Institutions made to train the gifted start to appear and with a more organized way to fight the Tainted their attacks become more uncommon and their victims less, this new stability allows humanity to experiment with energy, to test its limits, unaware that this generates more corrupt energy overtime.
The excess of both normal and corrupt energy create a warped space that spawns Tainted but can also incrase the Gifted's powers; those places wouls later become known as Wayward Zones. Is the study of the wayward zones that mark the end of era two, on the year II-1750 after the discovery that human intervention has caused the tainted and that is the growth of the Tainted that causes the birth of more gifted ones, this information is then covered up so as to not give up the advances the powers have brougth.
To the public the era has been changed because the increment of wayward zones forced humanity into moving to different places in order to avoid the "birthplace" of tainted ones

Era three has been remarkably lacking in new findings about the energy in the world, mostly because all of them has been kept secret.

The story starts on 28/05/813-III

Normal except when a gifted or tainted ones are involved.
Do not aply when in a wayward zone.

Gifted''s powers are more close to psychic powers while the sight acts as a way of seeing auras if used lighly and seeing the energy movemet when concentrating.

more advanced than ours but not by much
