Bermuda Triangle (i series)

This is a list of Bermuda Triangle cards pertaining to the Cray i storyline.

Background
Even before the founding of Bermuda Triangle, singing has been an ancient tradition among the mermaids of the oceans. The songs of mermaids are known to have powerful magical properties. Bermuda Triangle was founded by a group of mermaids who kept the secrets to a few such songs, ones with the ability to promote a sense of unity and togetherness among people regardless of their nation or race. It is this property that makes Bermuda Triangle the global force that it is, and its popularity is immense among all nations and all races. Even dragons, with their warlike and single-minded attitudes, enjoy Bermuda Triangle. Bermuda Triangle has such influence that it is said that the days they globally broadcast their performances are "days where no bullets are shot in any place of the world".

Notably, the secret magic of Bermuda Triangle's songs draws mana and thoughts in from all over the world, and the combining of mana and willpower from multiple nations yields an immense but forgotten power. As a result, those songs enhance the physical and magical strength of its idols without them realizing it, and Bermuda Triangle has combat potential on par with a nation's army, even though its members are civilians without any sort of formal combat training whatsoever. However, despite their potential, Bermuda Triangle does not participate in conflicts. This is not because they are civilians unsuited for conflict, although that isn't wrong, but rather because of a complex series of enchantments the demiurge wove to segregate Bermuda Triangle from the rest of the world.

Bermuda Triangle's songs originated from Hazur's experiments to bring together the people of Cray. Back then, he had already noticed the flawed nature of creation, and together with Gyze and a few other deities, Hazur was working on projects to fix the problems of the people of Cray. (Messiah couldn't be assed to help. Messiah thought Cray was perfect as-is.) One of these problems was conflict on Cray. The disparate peoples of Cray, with their vices, greed, and opposing beliefs constantly fought, so Hazur tried to create something that would allow the people of Cray to see their similarities and come together.

Hazur came up with the idea of a song to bring the people of Cray together, but found that, as a god, he was too detached from mortals to feel the strong emotions needed to sing such songs. Thus he contacted a few mermaids, a race already known for their singing, and presented his idea to them. It was a resounding success. The mermaid group that Hazur entrusted his songs became popular almost overnight, as their songs resonated with the entire populace of Cray. This is considered to be the beginning of Bermuda Triangle.

Over the next few decades, conflict plummeted, and the mermaids' magical powers skyrocketed, with the most popular and influential among them becoming almost like demigods. The demiurge was not happy about this. The demiurge needed Cray in constant conflict, and the people of Cray making peace with each other due the mermaid divas' songs would ruin their system. Furthermore, the mermaids threatened to become beings akin to Original Dragons of old, and as the demiurge had already previously rid the world of the original dragons, it did not desire to see more beings like them come into existence. The demiurge had intended to destroy Bermuda Triangle utterly, but realized that it could make use of them instead; a faction of pretty idols could have a place in its grand scheme. As a result, the demiurge took action to "merely" reduce Bermuda Triangle to a shadow of what it once was.

The demiurge silenced the current top idols of Bermuda Triangle, those whose power rivaled demigods, rendering them unable to sing again and reverting them back to mortal power. Then, he cursed the Bermuda Triangle organization; from then on, anyone who was a member of Bermuda Triangle would be "unable to effect positive change in the world." The uniting effect of their songs was drastically weakened, making them unable to connect the peoples of Cray and only allowing them to remain a globally popular idol group. In one fell swoop, the idols of Bermuda were reduced from peacemakers and ambassadors who made the world a better place to vapid idols unable to do anything other than look pretty. WIP

Hazur was left unpunished, as the demiurge believed that he was not intentionally acting to subvert the demiurge's authority. While this was true, Hazur was subconsciously acting on his forgotten memories of the era of the original dragons, when the world was at peace.
