Premise:
Set in the modern world but with a very Paranormal twist. Races all have abilities and skills specific to them alone as well as generic generalized ones but they all each have major weaknesses as well.
The races are spread worldwide but all with one common goal - resurrecting their home. Thought to be lost for all time each race wants to be the one to figure out the clues to the puzzle that will lead to them all returning to their home, Atlantis. The one that finds it first has been promised leadership over all other races. It's now a race to the ultimate prize and it's getting deadly out there.
There is one common ground for all to meet, a place where the Chosen One of the Displaced Children of Atlantis resides. Miami Florida, known for its heat, beaches and nearby swamps where more than one body has been known to get "misplaced". The Rhapsody club is known for its high profile clientele but it's also home to the races that might come in to visit, as well as the Guardians that reside in Miami. The Rhapsody Club also houses the Chosen One, the one that is a part of all of races and is the mouthpiece of the Gods.

Teaser post about the beginning:
Looking through the mists the being swirled a long and elegant finger through the shifting time and space and made choices, weighed decisions and came to a conclusion. A conclusion that might make or break a pantheon, one that might bring out the true horror that mankind had in their hearts. Turning on her heels with her silvery gown flowing freely she spoke softly to the man who was just inside of her personal space, the only being ever allowed inside of her personal domain.
"It's time." She murmured. "Atlantis has set its creatures free, they have no set boundaries. They have no home they could turn to. It's time to make a stand. Are you with me?" She asked the question even though she knew the answer. She was Primordial, but unlike the others who reigned over Chaos and Order, she was Vision. Sadly she could see all that was, and all that would ever come to be. She saw the different paths that could be followed and knew that if they didn't step in, if she and her Love didn't stop what was to come then the world, the Earth, would shatter and one of their power bases would be gone. It would weaken the Primordials, would weaken all of the Pantheon's under them as well, the Greeks especially.
"It is time in order to ensure that first of all a proper leadership bloodline is created for each of the races. That bloodline will always lead them. It is time that we put structure where none was needed before. Before Atlantis was ruled by Poseidon, a Greek God. All bowed to him. All of the packs and races looked to him for leadership but in each and every one of those packs there has always been a stronger bloodline, a bloodline that would go to the God to request things for their home. A bloodline that would be looked to in times where the God was absent. These bloodlines will be made more." She told her love as she approached him.
