Magic, albeit relatively low-powered, exists.  Unfortunately, for the most part, the use of magic is forbidden as it is believed to be evil in nature (at least by Europeans and Arabs).As far as his earth's history is concerned, the dark age and middle ages were prolonged and lasted until the 15th century.  As a result, many major world events were delayed or has not yet occurred.  Such is the case of the discovery of the new world, which occurred in the year 1992...My character, Pale Jaguar, is a 16 year old Spaniard who was discovered she was discovered among the wreckage of a Spanish caravel that was shipwrecked off the island of Cozumel during a hurricane when she was 4 years old. The local Mayan priestesses concluded that the discovery of a fair skinned girl was an omen and decided to raise her as their own.  Unfortunately, Pale Jaguar arrival only foreshadowed the future arrival of the Spanish Conquistadors which occurred 11 years later. Up until recently, Pale Jaguar has lived a rather secluded life in one of the many temple cities on the island of Cozumel where she was trained to be a priestess of the moon goddess. Once the hostilities with the Spaniards began, Pale Jaguar was enlisted as healer for a contingent of warriors which was sent to defend one of the villages on Cozumel, and was unfortunately captured by the conquistadors and was taken to Hispaniola, where she has spent the majority of the last year.. Last night a strange bright light filled the chamber of the fort that Pale Jaguar was held within.  When the light dissipated, Pale Jaguar found herself alone in a strange room in a world that is unlike her own.</blockquote>
