Background:
Many centuries ago, winged Humans where plentiful, they lived in harmony with the ordinary humans, they called themselves The Wind riders, because besides being winged, each of the Wind riders had control of one element, some were stronger than other, but they never used their powers for evil and never to go against nature. however if a tornado or hurricane threatened a human or wind rider city, they would steer it around the city, but never stopped the natural storm, because they knew that is they did, the storm would just reappear some where else some where stronger.
The Wind rider and Humans lived openly together for years in peace, but that all changed when a massive earthquake struck the same spot where the city of Toronto sits right now,, however the wind riders were not able to sense it in time, and so there was a huge loss of life, for both wind rider and human, but the Humans blamed the wind riders and never forgave them,
Slowly over the years, tension grew between the two races and finally, the spark that fired an open war between them was, a human teenage girl was killed and her body was found near a wind rider village, even though the Wind rider knew they were innocent They sadly began to prepare for war, but every single one swore an oath not to use the elements against the Humans. in hope that the Humans would notice and someday remember.
The war wiped out 97% of wind riders because they did not have the weapons that the humans did, they had no need for it. and so the last remaining 3% went into hiding and have been in hiding ever since.
(present day) Dane never knew his parents, because he was raised by Wind rider who takes in any orphaned wind riders and raises them to know their true heritage. Dane was the first child who questioned the reason behind hiding from the humans. after all that had happened so long ago. So when he ran away from home. to the place where he is now, where an older man noticed him digging through garbage and took him in.
That older gentleman turned out to also be a wind rider and an air controller as well, just like Dane. so he taught Dane all that he knew, but made sure that Dane knew that he never to do three things. 1 use his powers for evil. 2 never go against nature and 3 never use his element as a weapon.
