>Likewise the various peoples found in the American and African continents, were dominated because their magic diverged from the practices of the European Lodges. Enslaved, these peoples had their religious and magical practices prohibited, but even so they continued to practice them, secretly, in captivity, creating a syncretism with local religious practices, giving rise to new models that came to be called Santeria, Voudoun and Macumba. The magical religion of voodoo is at the heart of the Shadow War. A unique blend of beliefs from three continents (European, African and American), Voodoo has become one of the most powerful magical traditions in the world. Practiced by millions of people, its pantheon of spirits and deities allows, whoever dominate the correct way to invoke them, to obtain great power

>Then a new struggle began, between the European tradition of the Lodges and the Initiates of the Bizongues, secret societies that practice voodoo, mainly in the Americas. Several groups then emerged willing to wage a fight against groups that wanted to keep them slaves, or not give them rights, and the malevolent spirits that torment their protégés. Among them are the Lucumi, who supported the revolt and independence in Haiti, the Dahomets, masters of assassination and application of violence through witchcraft, and the Loa Lords, who gained many supporters in the US among black activists and others. All fighting for the rights of their peoples, the end of slavery on the American continent, using their powers in this Shadow War

>The Initiates' struggle today can be against drug dealers, serial killers that are spread around the world, spiritual protection of their community, senseless crimes that the police do not investigate, unnecessary violence, urban decadence, etc. Many of these problems are caused by supernatural forces that feed on the pain and suffering of humans. It then remains for the Initiates of voodoo to fight these threats in the streets of the cities

>While Lodges and Bizongues continued to fight among themselves, a third participant in this secret war was discovered: the Corruptors, called by the Initiates of voodoo as Mayombe. Spiritual beings of great power and who have been with humanity since the beginning of time, they possess a psychic connection with humanity in which they absorb power through our pain, suffering and death. They did not provoke the great wars in the world, nor did they provoke the enslavement of African peoples, but they benefit from these facts. Many believe that they originated in Africa when our human ancestors learned to speak, and have followed man wherever he went in the world. Many remained in Africa, where they corrupted many tribes and kingdoms. Some scholars believe that they are evil incarnate, and that they are older than the planet itself. They are the origin of stories about monstrous creatures tormenting man

>Some of these Corruptors managed to make alliances with Initiates of the Lodges and the Bizongues, and use them as pawns in their machinations to torture humanity. The secret societies dedicated to serving these creatures are called Red Sects and among them are the Bokor, voodoo practitioners who use their powers for evil. There are also In-Betweeners, shape-shifting beings capable of taking human and animal form. They feed on human flesh, preferably filled with fear and pain. Most of these creatures serve the Corruptors, although some are completely independent and even have good intentions, preferring not to harm or cause pain to humans. Besides that, there are also the Devourers, immense creatures that live in the underground of some cities, hidden in the sewer systems, and that are considered by some Initiates as the real enemies of humanity. In their beliefs they are our jailers, keeping our spirits trapped in a world of torture and misery. They are considered “Things That Man Shouldn't Know Was Exist“, much like the Great Old Ones of HP Lovecraft
