“Anyone with the illecebra Illness is destined to die at the age of 22. There is no cure.”

You were destined to die in 22 years. Since the moment of your birth, you have known your downfall. The age in which you die. You aren’t sure why your parents told you, why they wanted you to know on your tenth birthday, but they did. Holding back tears as if they were the ones to suffer, as if they knew the exact moments they’d die. You like to think they prepared you, made you live your life without fear, but—

You’re 22 this year. With no cure in sight, and no way to prevent what is bound to happen to you. You’ll die and you’ll die soon. Unless you can make a deal.

♡ THE WARDEN:

THE VOID WHICH BECKONS — {AMAB - MAN}

[You’ll learn their names in book]

Gods and Villains is a superhero/horror story set in a dystopian future where Earth is filled to the brim with crime and corruption—a.k.a MCU meets The Boys.

Warning! injury to major characters, gore, body horror, trauma and PTSD, amnesia, death, and sexual content. Rated +18. More specific content warnings will be provided at the start of each chapter.

You take control of a powerful metahuman, an otherwise ordinary human on the outside but who has the meta-gene, a potent mutation deep engraved in their DNA, which gives them superhuman abilities. This next step in human evolution comes with a setback, however, for the curse of madness seems to follow their every step. It lurks in the shadows, patiently waiting for the opportunity to strike—many metahumans fall prey to its alluring promises. 

With a dark and traumatic past filled with untold horrors and inhuman experiments, you are rescued from the clutches of crazy terrorists by a team of heroes that might lend you all the tools you need for redemption or complete self-annihilation. 

As the only metahuman with the ability to wield the powerful Chaos Magic, your very blood holds the answers to unlocking the secrets behind the control of time and space, but it has the drawback of being almost completely volatile. 

Who can you trust to keep you safe other than yourself? Trust no one, and maybe you can get out of this literal hell alive.

Play as male, female, or non-gender specific, along with transgender choices;

Romance one of seven characters, and if your heart is big enough fall in love with two of them. There's three possible poly routes available: Archon and Stardom, Archon and Mars, Paladin and Wildcat;

Customize your appearance, personality and powers;

Struggle against the shackles of madness trying to take hold of your psyche;

Battle a multitude of villains or become one yourself;

Uncover the secrets behind the meta-gene and your abilities;

Help the public fall in love with superheroes or forever destroy that chance;

In total there are seven romance options, each with their own personality, and dark secrets for you to uncover. You can read more about them below:

?

The villain, or anti-hero, whatever you want to call them, Mars is an enigmatic figure; the very concept of life seems to hold no value to them. A trail of bodies follows wherever they go, and on the news, they are regarded as the biggest menace of the century. They will have the unique ability to sway your loyalty. Beware, their sweet words and promises may drip with honey, but they also drip with the blood of their victims.​

Trope: Forbidden love, emotional scars, blood-play

Zev/Zena Hammer

The oldest of the bunch and not a metahuman per se. Hammer acts as the spokesperson for the team, mitigating the often tenuous relationship between humans and the so-called "mutants". As a retired police detective they've learned firsthand how rotten the world can be for the innocent, and they've vowed to protect them at any cost. Their analytical and communication skills will go hand in hand when dealing with various crimes, just as their implants.

Trope: Widow/widower, age gap, don't-call-me-daddy/mommy

Adam/Ava Armstrong

The current leader of the Alliance Team. Headstrong and dauntless, they are regarded as the strongest metahuman in modern times and the most enigmatic of them all, whose past is shrouded in mystery and unknown even to their closest friends. On the outside, they might seem apathetic and unconcerned with human suffering, but their true feelings are hidden beneath layers of deep trauma. Superhuman strength and invulnerability are their greatest assets when fighting villains.

Trope: Nobody thinks it will work, love/hate, fucking-your-boss

Edward/Evelyn Osborne

The former leader of the Alliance Team and Archon's best friend. On the surface, they are the stereotypical showboat: cocky, greedy, and egoistical. Stardom does whatever they can to gain attention, fame, and riches. For them, the best feeling in the world is an adoring fan and a beautiful person fawning over their heroics. The meta-gene gives them a genius-level intellect, which in turn is used to develop several pieces of equipment that are employed by themselves and the team during fights.​

Trope: Billionaire, belated love epiphany, good-people-have-good-sex

Johnny/Johnnie

If Archon's past is shrouded in mystery, Paladin's is drowned in it. For all you know, their name is not even Johnny/Johnnie but an alias of their choosing. They are known to be the silent loner type and are somewhat socially withdrawn from other members of the team, only speaking when called upon to do so. Behind their silver mask, they harbor more than a few inner demons, and together with their superhuman weapon and combat proficiency, they fight for the innocent.​

Trope: Secret identity, oblivious to love, weapon-fetishization

Pedro/Pilar Flores

The youngest of the team, considered by many a lighthearted jokester without any real talent beyond their obvious powers—which set them apart from every human that walks the earth. With their metahuman status so evident for everyone to see, hiding just didn't seem like an option, so they chose the next best alternative. Known to be playful, energetic, and often immature, they are responsible for balancing the team's more serious side, and when someone can take the form of any living being on Earth, the repertoire of pranks is endless.​

Trope: Beauty and the Beast, broken in some way, begging

Doctor Malik/Malika Aziz

The renowned Doctor Aziz, a famed archaeologist and considered to be the most powerful sorcerer, or magic user, in the world. They wear several enchanted artifacts that, in turn, accentuate their already tremendous knowledge of the mystical forces. With an extremely strong moral compass and kind demeanor, they will show themselves to be the best teacher you could ask for, but why do they seem to be everywhere you look?

Trope: Time travel, twin siblings or clones?, teacher-student

LINKS

You typically think of yourself as a person with good morals but the blood staining your clothes and the man currently locked in the boot of your car has you reconsidering that assessment.

You are Atrax. Previously referred to as the best agent I-DIE - the International Directory of Intelligence and Espionage - had to offer. Now known by your colleagues as nothing more than an occupational hazard. You're far from the agent you used to be and even then, it's taken you years to piece back together some semblance of your old self.

You've been out of commission longer than not, all of your time being dedicated to your rehabilitation which, honestly, was for the best. So why now, riddled with PTSD and more baggage than you know what to do with, have you been thrown back into action?

Whatever the reason, it might be what finally breaks you.

Play as Atrax, an agent of once great renown, and customise their gender, appearance and sexuality.

Choose your tragic backstory and the moment that changed you forever.

Further tarnish your reputation or work to rebuild it.

Build and repair relationships with a cast of characters.

Make questionable choices that both challenge your morals and break several laws.

Respice Finem is my first ever big project and I'm still learning how to create an interactive novel so my progress on this will slow. But I'm very passionate about it and I look to seeing where it takes me.

The mad desire for vengeance burned within you like an uncontrollable wildfire, threatening to consume all thoughts and reason with each passing day. It lashed wildly like fire accumulating within the belly of a dragon, waiting to be unleashed at those who wronged you, and your family.

But you were too weak. Too fragile, like a newborn chick. What could you possibly do in your miserable state?

Every night while the world slept, you would lie awake in your dirty cot, praying endlessly for someone to save you. Be it God or the Devil himself, you begged to be saved. To be given a second chance.

Then, your prayers were answered. Not by God but the Devil.

"I can grant you only one of your wishes, little one. So, tell me, what do you desire?"

There were a million things that you desired. A warm home. A loving family. However none of those could be compared to your life long desire.

"Vengeance."

"Are you sure that is what you desire?" You do not remember what kind of expression he had on, but the amusement was evident in his voice.

"I am." You answer firmly.

"Very well."

He held his hand out for you to grab, a final chance for you to turn back on your world. But a normal life was something you have given up on a long time ago.

You firmly grab his inviting hand, knowing fully well that there was no turning back now.

The Devil smiled wickedly.

genres ; dark, gothic fiction, romance, crime, thriller

setting ; fictional world of Celtica (loosely based on modern Britain from 1900's), Modern (at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution)

Set in the early 19th century, you play as the heir of the powerful aristocratic family of Morrigan. But your true identity is that of a fallen noble from a disgraced house. Once renowned for its art and craftsmanship, your family collapsed after falling into crippling debt following a failed business attempt and accusations of planning a coup against the royal family. At least that's what the public is aware of. However you know better than that. Your family were no traitors, they were victims of a malicious plot woven by none other than the Duke of Sinclair, once an old friend of your family. Following the false accusations your family collapsed in no time and your parents and siblings were executed publicly.

You who were the lone survivor of this massacre changed your identity for fear of being caught and killed as well, living as a coal miner in an old orphanage. You craved vengeance but what could you, a fallen noble from a disgraced house, possibly do against a Duke who is one of the pillars of the great empire and the closest associate of the Empress.

You prayed day and night to the heavenly being that watched your downfall, desperately begging to be given a second chance in life. But all seemed for naught as the days turned to weeks and weeks to years. Just when you had given up all hope for revenge, an opportunity landed before you, appearing in the form of your father and the current head of the Morrigan Duchy, Law Morrigan.

Between the two choices given to you, as to whether you'd seek justice or vengeance against your enemies, you chose vengeance.

For the past 12 years you have been trained to become the perfect killer by your father. Born with the extremely rare phenomenon known only as a 'Miracle' you have been blessed by the Murder Miracle.

Now, young heir, this is your story. Your history to be written. Will continue down your bloody warpath of vengeance and be remembered in history as the punisher of the wicked and upsurer of the monarchy, OR will you let the impartial hands of justice make their judgement to your wrong doers and be remembered as the saint of justice. The choice is yours.

House of Ashes is a dark, interactive work of fiction that takes place in the early 19th century, at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. It follows the story of vengeance in the midst of political chaos, grisly murders and schemes behind the scenes, while you have to choose between morality and desire to achieve what you want and what you believe in.

It is rated 18+ for violence, explicit themes, possible sexual content, and ofcourse, lots of blood and gore.

Customize yout heir from their name, appearance, gender identity, pronouns anf many more. Choose what your heir thinks of their family, their position and their responsibilities.

Choose a weapon and master an ancient martial art of choice. Or don't and become a jack of all trades.

Choose what kind of heir you want them become and how far you're willing to go to protect your title. Will you go for a more diplomatic approach with a case of mutual relationship with your siblings or crush them with your overwhelming strength to show your authority.

Will you choose to give in to your murderous instincts or suppress them.

Get involved in a murder investigation following a serious of gruesome serial killings, and maybe learn that there was more than what meets the eye regarding the downfall of your house.

Indulge in some romance along the way with six different characters with varying backgrounds to choose from. Or just don't.

Choose a pet cat or dog to become your acquaintance. Perhaps if you're feeling a little exotic, a hawk will do?

More features to come

The Crown Prince - Maximilian Windsor Celtica [Male]

The oldest of the Sun Twins, Crown Prince Maximilian is a very reverred personality among the nobles. He is known for his shrewdness and extremely ambitious nature. A very charismatic person, he has a way with his words which often allows others to lower their guard around him. Aiming to become the Emperor of the Celtica Empire one day, having such ambitious goals mean Maximilian is willing to do anything to achieve them. That includes sending assassins after his twin, the Crown Princess. With an analytical mind that allows him to see those inferior than him as mere pawns, falling for him is a doomed endeavor.

He is the holder of the Domination Miracle.

The Crown Princess - Victoria Windsor Celtica [Female]

The youngest of the Sun Twins, Crown Princess Victoria is often compared to her golden brother and frequently referred to as the ugly duckling of the two. An aloof individual, Victoria is a person of very few words and prefers to end things up quickly with sharp jabs and assertive speeches. Although a cold person, she has a kind side to her too, which often sees her donating large portions of her personal wealth to orphanages and charities, making her widely beloved among the citizens of the empire. Due to the frequent assassination attempts on her life, Victoria has chosen to close her heart off towards everyone, preferring to bear all the burdens on her own.

She is the holder of the Conquest Miracle.

The Fated Enemy - Cedric/Cordelia Sinclair [Gender Selectable]

Your mortal enemy. The child of the person responsible for your family's death and your misery. There are many things that you wish to address them as but cannot find the words to. That's how much you despise them. Imagine the surprise when they offered their hand for friendship to you. Contrary to how you imagine them as, like a spoiled young master from a privileged family, they're relatively humble. And also a little stupid. But behind their sunshine happy-go-lucky attitude, something much darker is lurking.

They are the holder of the Invulnerability Miracle.

The Best Friend - Orion/Ophelia Lancaster [Gender Selectable]

The lone, stoic heir of the righteous Lancaster Duchy, and also your best friend ever since the day you stepped foot into your new home, they are one of the few people that you trust. Although they have some trouble communicating with people regarding their feelings, they're a gentle giant compared to their intimidating features. They're also very open and blunt with their words whenever they speak so people tend to think of them as rude, not you though, you like their honesty. The two of you have stuck through the thick and thin of each other's lives like gum and even promised to do so until the end of your lives. But good things never truly last do they? A small misunderstanding which eventually gew to become a feud between the two oldest families of the empire, you wonder, what went wrong?

They're the holder of the Belief Miracle.

The Dream Demon - [???]

All dreams have a price to be paid. Are you willing to pay yours?

The Ash Demon - [???]

An old fossil, rising from the burnt ashes of your past. Do you remember me? Don't worry if you don't. I do.

DEMO || THE RO'S || THE FOUR FAMILIES || THE MIRACLE

“It is a long story, and it does no credit to anyone: there is murder in it, and trickery, lies and foolishness, seduction and pursuit.                                                                                           Listen.“

                               - Neil Gaiman, Norse Mythology

You are a human. A totally normal one.

Honestly.

You’re a human. You’re a bartender, which is a very normal job for a human to have, and when you walk down the winding streets of Akureyri you can blend seamlessly into any crowd of people which is, without question, only something that a human could do.

The fact that you came here two years ago with nothing but the clothing on your back doesn’t mean anything; you’re hardly northern Iceland’s first wayfaring soul. That you had no money to your name, no friends or family to speak of — that’s a fairly average human thing, too. And that little craving you have, that quiet urge to dig your teeth into any passing stranger’s throat? It’s completely, entirely mundane.

It’s manageable. You’re managing.

Or you were, until someone — someone who’s decidedly not as good at this human thing as you are — begins leaving a trail of dead bodies at your doorstep, and a trio of god-like siblings take a seat at your bar.

(Ragnarök might have marked the end of the Norns, but that doesn’t mean your fate died along with them.)

MAGNI THORSON .

No doubt the mightiest of his siblings, the eldest child of Thor is exactly the sort of person you would expect him to be: a giant (half-giant, in fact) asshole with a smoulder and a knife-sharp jawline to match. He’ll match your every word with a cocky grin and a joke that’s nowhere near as funny as he thinks, and he’ll look every inch the prince that he is all the while.

(Well, the prince that he was. Just don’t let him hear you say that.)

MODI THORSON .

For the supposed embodiment of his father’s wrath, theGod of Thunder’s second son is surprisingly…not that. He’s no picnic, mind you — he’s broody, he’s secretive, and he’s fucking intense, but that hardly equates to fury incarnate. You’re sure there’s something hiding under that moody surface; whether or not you want to uncover it is a different story entirely.

(Looks like even gods aren’t immune to middle-child syndrome. Who knew?)

THRÚD THORSDÓTTIR .

Valkyrie, seidhr, paragon of strength — with all of her mother’s best traits (and a few of her father’s worst), is it any wonder that Thor’s youngest child was also his favourite? Smarter than her half-brothers and more likeable by a longshot, you might find yourself forgetting how easily the fortune-telling goddess could break you in two. You might, but she’ll be happy to remind you if you do.

(Maybe a little too happy, in fact.)

KATLA B̶͍̏L̸̝͑O̵̟͠M̴̳̓Q̴̯̔V̵̺͆I̷̗͛S̵̠͒T̸̬̒ .

A fellow nomad and your coworker at Black Thunder, the first friend you made in Akureyri has remained your closest. Mischevious, magnetic, and often up to no small amount of trouble, there are times when you think you might know Katla better than you know yourself. You even know about her…well, you know that she…sorry, what were you talking about again?

(It’s just that it’s nice, beingclose to someone who’s so very human.)

THE MARE .

There’s a voice in your head and a shadow in your dreams, and they’re telling you to run. You probably shouldn’t trust them.

(…Right?)

Customize your monster character. New life, new you! Choose your gender identity, change your name, cut your hair, and remember: if you’re starting to grow tired of running from your past, try on a new outfit and start running faster.

Play as one of three runway creatures from Norse mythology — a cunning keeper of the forest, a charming warden of the lake, or a formidable guardian of the mountains. Each has its quirks (would you prefer a hollowed-out tree for a back, or webbed fingers and forearms covered in scales?), but they all have two key things in common: they’ll killto protect their homes, and you’redefinitely not one of them.

Choose your own fate, out of the countless that are presented to you. Had oatmeal instead of skyr with your breakfast this morning? You might have just brought about Ragnarök 2.0. Nice one, asshole.

Multiple romance options, with each available to pursue regardless of your gender or background. Ever wanted to kiss a god under a starry sky? Now’s your chance! Or maybe you’re through with immortal beings and desperate to ask the pretty server on a date? Go for it! She’s definitely a human too. Totally. You’d be able to tell if she wasn’t. Wouldn’t you?

Save the world — or don’t.It’s your choice, and isn’t that what true freedom is all about?

Folksaga is inspired by The Edda, Norse mythology, and Twin Peaks, with a bit of tweaking to the myths as needed for the sake of plot. MC backgrounds have been adjusted to fit for all players regardless of gender identity, and creative liberty has been taken with some smaller points for a smoother storytelling experience. All changes will be explained in an FAQ post (too be added in the links below ASAP!)

The current demo consists of the prologue (introductory lore + character creation), which is about 20k words. I plan to post it in the next few weeks, after some edits + the completion of chapter one!

I expect it to be somewhere in the range of 600,000 to 700,000 words, but this is subject to change (and likely will due to my propensity for rambling text. oops.).

I’ve written  short and long-form original fiction as well as a lot of fanfic (say hello @ pentaghastly on AO3, and @kendallroynsfw on tumblr!), but this is my first IF! Bugs and coding issues may appear in the demo; please let me know if any issues arise during your playthroughs.

Folksaga is a work in progress. I would love constructive feedback when the demo is posted, as well as any bugs or grammar issues to be brought to my attention if I’ve missed them :) I would also love patience, because I’m a full time health care worker who gets sleepy lots xoxo

A Swedish farmer named Sven Andersson was executed in 1691 for having intercourse with a mountain nymph, or bergsrå. I will neither confirm or deny if his Wikipedia article was the inspiration for this IF, except I will confirm it and it definitely was.

Development blog for the upcoming IF: The Whisper in the Mist. This IF is based on Pacific Rim media (with a focus on the 2013 film).

Asks are welcome (including explicit asks).

Rated 18+ for explicit language, unhealthy coping methods, dark humour, mental health issues, character death, sexual content (optional), violence, blood, gore, mutilation and body horror, and murder and attempted murder. Will be updated as needed.

Setting: Tsing Yi Island, Hong Kong (with futuristic elements).

When I was a kid, whenever I'd feel small or lonely...I'd look up at the stars and wonder if there was life up there. Turns out I was looking in the wrong direction.

When alien life entered our world it was from deep beneath the Pacific Ocean. A fissure between two tectonic plates. A portal between dimensions.

They called it the Breach.

- Raleigh Beckett (Pacific Rim).

It’s funny how quickly things can change.

One minute you’re on top of the world, then the next, your world is crumbling down around you…

Five years ago, you and your drift partner had the highest success rates of any Jaeger pilots. Now, one horrific tragedy and a hasty promotion later, you’re pushing pencils thousands of miles away from the place you called home.

That is, until a Kaiju with stealth abilities like nothing that’s ever been seen before crawls out of the Breach.

Recalled back into service, you’re forced to team up with your once rival under the command of your former drift partner, and the advice of two scientists who seem more interested in the Kaiju’s than your safety. All while someone with more money than sense attempts to undermine you at every turn.

With everything seemingly against you, will you take up the mantle of hero once more or will you let the darkness plaguing your mind consume you?

Customisable MC (including name, pronouns, appearance, and identity). Personality is semi-set (MC uses humour and sarcasm as a coping method for their trauma) for a majority of the time, however there will be chances for character development and therefore more personality choices.

Pilot a Jaeger, fight Kaiju’s, and keep the world safe all while battling your own demons.

Five characters are available to romance. Two are only romanceable in a (triad) poly.

Found family.

RO PoVs.

Befriend (and potentially adopt) a baby Kaiju. Also give your dog lots of love.

Prince Aventus, M.

With an eclectic personality forged from years of disregarding his royal duties in favour of things more fun, Aventus is a lost soul within the kingdom walls. Yearning for a life more fulfilling than yelling orders and awaiting to be married off into another kingdom; he's eager for some action wherever he goes. His inclination towards chaos does often get him in trouble with his mother, Queen Cybele.

A secret plagues Prince Aventus, however, as his royal blood gifts him with more than a simple title and great feasts each night. Aventus harbours a strange ability to see into the future, given the circumstances are right.

Aventus is 5'11, white-blonde hair with freckles that stain his cheeks and the bridge of his nose. His eyes are an inquisitive green, and his slender stature is often slouched.

Princess Mara, F.

Not one to bad mouth, Mara does more work for Vesamaina than anyone else, except for Queen Cybele. Readying herself to take the throne once her mother passes it on, Mara is all work and no play, a stark contrast to her twin brother. Her first priority is the kingdoms wellbeing, and will protect it with life and soul if she must.

Of course, her royal blood has too given her an ability beyond anyone's comprehension, but hers has remained unspoken of. According to her, the only ones that know are herself and her mother; and that wont be changing any time soon.

Mara is 5'9, with white-blonde hair that reaches her lower back. Her eyes are green, posture straight and poised. Her build is slender and almost fragile.

Evan Autrey, M.

Autrey is the result of an affair between Vesamaina's late King Thorne and a brothel worker. As a result of being born of infidelity, Autrey and his mother were ousted from the kingdom and King Thorne was swiftly taken care of by his own wife. Not long after his fifteenth birthday, Autrey's mother fell ill and left him to fend for himself in the small cottage they had built a days hike from the kingdom walls. He's a recluse, and intelligent beyond his years.

Though his blood may not be entirely royal, Autrey was still burdened with a gift after his birth: he can travel in time. Experience has only made him wiser, and he may be expecting a visit from a certain lost soul and their new friends soon enough.

Autrey is 6'2, has mousey brown hair and a muscular build indicative of his labours. His eyes are green, hands callused and skin kissed tan by the sun.

Gage Atherton, M.

One of the highest ranking royal guards of Vesamaina, despite his younger age. Gage is a man of service, and does all he can to protect the interest of hew royal family. His closeness in age to Mara and Aventus has however gotten him into a few difficult circumstances over the years. He's strong willed and not easy to make smile, though he does have a soft spot for his little sister, Beatrice. Aventus calls him Grumps.

Atherton isn't one to be taken lightly, and will most likely require some convincing before leaving his post to help anyone other than the royals themselves. Gage does not possess any supernatural skills, though he is aware of the gifts that plague those of royal blood.

Gage is 6'4, with black hair and brown skin. His build is muscular and his strength unmatched; eyes are dark, and hold intent hard to read.

Cilla Rowe, F.

Living in the cellar of her Uncles tavern, Cilla Rowe runs a business that is only accessible under her discretion. Providing natural remedies and peculiar medicinal treatments to the hurt and poorly, Cilla is somewhat of a doctor in your eyes, though she prefers the term 'wise-woman'. She's sweet, and gentle in her touch, and smiles like it's the strongest of all her treatments.

Cilla is black and 5'2, with dark braids and even darker eyes. She has a curvy build, a contagious smile and love evident on her face.

A kingdom residing a short trip from the ocean, and surrounded by woods for hours in every direction, Vesamaina is a secluded paradise of toil and subsequent riches. Queen Cybele governs the kingdom from her throne in the castle of Vesamaina: she is a harsh ruler, but one that her people love nonetheless.

Queen Cybele protects her people from many things, but her deepest secret lies within the royal bloodline: everyone born of their blood comes to harbour a gift unlike any other. Queen Cybele herself carries the ability to control the emotions of those around her. If she so pleases, she can throw souls into the greatest euphoric bliss, or alternatively the gravest emotional torture.

When a stranger arrives in her land with no recollection of how they got there, and claims that they're from another time: Queen Cybele grows uneasy. Tension grows thick when her children grow close with this stranger, and Queen Cybele feels compelled to protect her own- she fears a family secret or two may have broken the surface of their new friendship.

Dawn Chorus is entirely fictional, and not meant to reflect a certain event or period in history, so inaccuracies with real-world events or times are intentional. Demo TBA.

About to celebrate your fourth year as an assassin, karma is closing in on you with gnashing teeth and an undying thirst for blood. One more job, you keep telling yourself, but killing may just be more addictive than its advertised to be. After all, you do have a younger sister to provide for. You belong to a small-scale syndicate that works to… cleanse the world of the harsh and irritating, and though you typically work alone, you’ve formed somewhat of a deranged family. However, when your boss assigns you to a team of the best and gives you a target branded as the ‘Sterling Doll’, your wits, skills and sanity is trialled. Travelling the globe just to hunt one heavy-pocketed figure, your payout is expected to be well-worth it. Though, it doesn’t help that the Sterling Doll knows you’re coming for them, and likes the chase. 

⋇⋆✦⋆⋇ - FEATURES

- Customise yourself to your own liking. Design your looks, gender and personality type to your cold dead hearts content. 

- Kill people, like a badass. Choose your preferred methods, spare those that convince you to and hide the bodies of those that can’t. Or, just leave them to be found… you get paid either way. 

- Have an existential crisis about your chosen career path. 

- Fall in love with a cold-blooded killer, a hired genius, a hired dumbass, your actual boss or even the person you’re supposed to kill. If the romantic mess isn’t your thing, perhaps a Friends with Benefits scenario takes your fancy. 

- Raise your little sister. Hopefully to be a better person than you are.

⋇⋆✦⋆⋇ - ROMANCE

Madeleine Orozco. F

Miss Orozco, 23, is one of the most apathetic and ruthless killers the syndicate has seen in recent years. Despite her small size and unassuming appearance, Madeleine has proven herself capable on multiple occasions, and isn’t one to underestimate. Her temper can be misplaced, however, and has lead to some tricky situations over her career. Best to keep an eye on her anger. She will be joining your team on your hunt for the Sterling Doll.

Madeleine is 5′4, with jet-black hair and eyes to match. Her skin is tanned, her smile sadistic enough to scare, and her collection of murder stories a great time-killer. Pun intended. She’s spanish, too.

Cody Markus. M

Cody is many things, a jesting dumbass definitely one of them. It surprises you on the daily that he hasn’t gotten himself killed or tortured for a mistake he’s made so far: its a mystery how he’s landed himself in a team as skilled as yours. At only 20 years old, he has a lot to learn, and even more to unlearn: like speaking too much or eating on the job. Cody is a single father to a two-year-old girl at home, Sara.

Cody is 5′11, lean and unruly in every aspect of the word. His tawny brown hair is always a mess, and his pale green eyes are always looking for mischief. He’s fairly pale, and his nails are always painted an off-putting hot pink. He also has a tattoo sleeve.

Alaska. NB

Known only by ‘Alaska,’ one of the syndicates brightest members will be joining you, and aid mainly by locating the Sterling Doll and providing your team with inside information they can garner. Alaska doesn’t kill, and doesn’t intend to, but they sure know how to ruin a life or two: so make sure you aren’t a dick to them. They have their fair share of experience in the industry, and at 27, are looking to make this their last job. 

Alaska is 5′9, and aims to be as indistinct looking as possible. They are black, and wear their hair in braids that end just past their shoulders. They have a few tattoos scattered over their muscular body, but nothing that stains itself into your mind. You actually think if you spent long enough apart, you’d forget Alaska’s face entirely: maybe that’s the point.

Reilly Avalon. M

Your boss, the grump of this mission. Reilly put your team together, and no, he won’t be taking any questions on his methods or decisions. What Reilly says goes, and if you don’t like it, you can bet he will replace you without a second thought. At 30, he’s officially given himself the title of ‘knowledgeable’, and will finish whatever task is at hand, regardless of if it’s the last thing he does. Even if you do somehow manage to catch his attention, he won’t go easy on you just because he likes your face. So… don’t fuck up.

Avalon is 6′1, always sporting a frown and he’s a dirty blonde! But not that kind of dirty blonde, clean your damned mind, good lord (yes he is). Reilly has blue eyes, and is quite muscular under his typical suit and tie look.

Silver, Sterling Doll. M/F

You don’t know much about Silver, beside their alias and a short description of their looks. You’ve been told that they’re loaded beyond belief and also expectedly arrogant, surprise surprise. As eager as you may be to drive a knife into their spine, just be weary of their knack for playing games. Some say they get off on looking death in the eye.

Silver is 6′0, japanese and french, and has silky back hair, though the front pieces are dyed a silver-toned white. Their eyes are pools of black, and they’re attractive enough to warrant a warning from your boss: don’t let them seduce you, lord. 

✦ A polyamorous relationship between your MC, Reilly, and Silver will also be available later on in the story.

“How you have fallen from heaven, O star of the morning, child of the dawn! You have been cut down to the earth, You who have weakened the nations!”

You are an individual that has been known by many aliases over the years. Child of the dawn, the original sinner, star of the morning. But no matter the name, your identity remains the same. You are the one that defied the heavens, the one that cast aside the shackles of tradition and broke free from the constraints of the divine. You are Lucifer Morningstar - The Fallen Angel.

It is quite the title, you will admit. After all, it was clear that most had assumed that you would simply fade away after being cast out.

Of course, you have never been one to be bound by rules or expectations, instead always striving to challenge conventions and find new paths. Your rebellious spirit has helped you blaze a trail of chaos and destruction in your wake, earning you a place among the remembered.

However that legacy is put at risk with the newfound instability that hangs over the the three realms…

Michael (Angel) [He/Him]

The first being to come into existence as well as the general of the Paradise Host. His humility and strong sense of justice make him an admirable being, even more so given his significant power. Of course, he also happens to be the man who struck you down out of Paradise. Now that you have been reunited you can’t help but be curious about your former friend despite the deep strain of your relationship.

Uriel (Angel) [She/Her]

The fifth fourth of the Seraphim and a former close friend - Uriel is nothing short of a fiery and passionate individual. Her intense, fervent nature is undeniable, making her both a formidable ally and a dangerous enemy. You would know, considering you had bared witness to both sides personally. Mending your relationship with her would be nearly impossible. Even so, you knew that if you could pull it off, it would be undeniably worth it.

Vir (Human ???) [He/Him]

An eccentric and intriguing man that claims to be the “Guardian and Ruler of Limbus”. Vir is an enigma to many, including you. His loud and unstable personality make him difficult to understand, and you can never be sure what Vir’s intentions really are, leaving his true nature a mystery and his presence a source of curiosity and fascination. Although, now that you think about it, he seems awfully familiar…

Lilith (Succubus) [She/Her]

A mysterious and fascinating woman, Lilith is an enigma, captivating all who come into contact with her. Her reputation is not without merit - Lilith’s influence and insight are unparalleled, and her counsel invaluable to you. Taking the time to gain a better understanding of this enigmatic woman, and taking down a few of her walls in the process might be just the thing that unlocks the key to her heart.

Cas Monroe (Human) [Gender Selectable]

One of the two undecided souls, Cas is a ball of pure energy. Despite their situation, they continue to keep their upbeat and bubbly attitude. They have no intention to let their circumstances bring them down, and instead take every opportunity to try and make the best of it. With a never-ending determination, Cas is both a source of inspiration but also annoyance. Their positivity is admirable (if not a bit naïve) , but it also hints at a deeper, hidden side. What secrets are they hiding?

Alex D’Angelo (Human) [Gender Selectable]

As a newly created minor angel in the Celestial Realm, you find yourself caught in the middle of a brewing civil war between the traditionalist faction and the rebels.

Lady Donna Beneviento

Will you be one of the few that does?

Lord Karl Heisenberg

A cocky individual that storms through the village like a winter snowstorm.

ROMANCE OPTIONS

Note: Maboroshi is intended for 16+ audiences. Strong Violence and Swearing/Cursing will be in the IF. The warning list will be updated as we continue. Intro Post is still being pulled together, so if there are any questions, let me know!

Maboroshi is an Interactive Fiction Game based in the world of Naruto, however all events within the story span during the end of the First Shinobi War and the beginning of the Second Shinobi War.

Long ago, many years before you were born, the countries of the world were entrenched in warfare for land. Mighty warlords and noblemen wished to expand their territory; however, blood would need to be given in exchange; Unfortunately, for the people of the land, the blood given as payment was not theirs. Instead, shinobi across the lands sacrificed their lives to fulfill the greedy lord’s wishes. Villages would soon be pillaged, children and women would perish from famine, and demonic creatures would rise from the darkest parts of the world to roam the earth. This would later be known as the Warring States Era. 

Twenty years later, all of the infighting, battles, and wars would just…cease to exist. No one knows what caused the wars to stop; many believe that an inner deal was made between Daimyo across the land, while others believe that something much more sinister is at play. Regardless, the ninja world seems to have finally settled into peace and harmony.

It has been some years since the Warring States Era ended. Villages across the land have been ushered into peace, and the village of Kirigakure is one of them. 

Having just graduated from Ninja Academy, you’re now a Genin placed into your forever squad. Focused on growing stronger and building a name for yourself. You set your sights on becoming the strongest nin in your village, and who knows? Maybe you’ll even become Mizukage someday. Before that happens, you’ll need to pass the Chunin exam, a test that is said to have painted the very soil underneath your feet red.

Exam preparations are put on hold however, when rumors of war begin spilling across the peninsula. 

Tonari Yuma, a missing-nin from your village once accused of kidnapping and killing five children from all across the Land of Water, has resurfaced as a chieftain in the small village of Kirostache. 

Proclaiming himself to be the rightful Mizukage of the Land of Water. He wages war against Kirigakure and denounces your village as a town full of traitors, united in dethroning the Daimyo by the usage of dark means. Your father calls it foolish. There is no way that the Water Daimyo would believe such a basis. 

Or so he hopes.

A conspiracy is brewing in the Land of Water, and you will soon learn that life is not as idealistic as you believed.

“𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐑𝐆𝐎”: A story where you play as an immortal who awakens from a seven hundred year nap by an archaeologist who tells you the world you once knew is not what it is now. 

[ Demo TBA ] [ ROs Appearance ]

You’re immortal. There is no death for you. At least not a permanent one. 

The last thing you remember was hearing the faint snarls of a Beast, your blade steady in your hand while people sang in a chorus of screams around you. The next? You were waking up in a coffin in the middle of nowhere to a world you no longer recognise. 

There are strange tall buildings made of glass and metal. Even the clothes the people wear and the way they speak is strange.

The world has changed. For better or for worse, you don’t know just yet. But if there is one thing you do know for certain. It’s that immortality is not the gift people think it is.

You aren’t the only immortal being that has awoken that one fateful day. The only difference between the two of you is that one comes with incredibly sharp teeth and an appetite for a specific immortal.

— Play as a female, male or non-binary immortal and customise them including sexuality, appearance, etc.

— Romance one of three ROs: The immortal rival, the reincarnated figure and the charitable surgeon.

— Become friends with a literal demonic eyeball, cause a bar fight or two and evade some people who are hellbent on having you as their latest test subject. Oh and maybe come across a few dead bodies.

— Remain inconspicuous, pretend you know what you’re doing when you really don’t and most of all…Don’t die. (It raises questions).

Artemis Van Kirk [F]  — The Immortal Asshole Rival.

Always the bitter asshole first and frenemy second. At least to you. To everyone else, she’s just a slightly defrosted and polite version of what you know.

Throughout the centuries, she’s had many jobs but right now, she’s a regular, boring history professor at Sinner’s Lament University with a streak of being impossibly difficult to befriend.

Lyra/Leone/Leith Alcove [F/M/NB]  — The Reincarnated Figure.

They don’t remember you. Perhaps they never will. But all you know is that they haven’t changed one bit and is still every bit of the curious fool you once knew.

An agent of the law, Ackerman is the person they send when there’s a situation that’s a bit out of hand. And what better situation is there than people popping up dead with claw marks on their bodies?

Serai/Silas/Shea Warner [F/M/NB]  — The Charitable Surgeon.

The famous surgeon of Sinner’s Lament, Warner is practically a celebrity with a very nosy and loyal fanbase. They’re stubborn most of the time but kind, almost always willing to help.

All you needed from them was some “medical advice” but a photo of you two together surfaced on what is called “the internet” and suddenly you find yourself being watched by a herd of fangirls.

Francesca “Frankie” Ackerman [F] — The Archaeologist .

She’s weird but nice. Has a Russian blue cat who always seems to be at every corner.

Exo [?] — The eyeball.

A literal eyeball. Is so annoying sometimes that you’ll just want to stomp on it.

Barracuda “Barry” Radcliffe [M] — Head of Aeon Technologies.

He knows what you are. And he wants what you have.

It’s Zico again! And with another IF!

A dark fantasy story with a mix of modern, medieval, and futuristic elements. Two siblings, an angel and demon, on a path of revenge.

In the world of Eldris, the recent infestation of binders and lifelines grows. They are eldritch entities made of the same essence as the living. Despite the commonality, it is clear that they do not belong in this world, and nobody knows where they come from. What is clear is that they are on the hunt for mortals who will become the ideal vessel for storing essence, and they’ll do whatever it takes to survive while on their conquest.

You and your brother, Daemin, are another anomaly in this world. The day you woke up in this strange land was the same day you were quick to learn of your newfound power. While you are an endless basin of life, your brother is a vacuum of death. He is in a constant state of decay, and he needs essence to live. However, with a surplus of essence, he can amass power beyond what a demon like himself should be capable of. The two of you make a dangerous pair, seeing as how you’re a limitless generator of essence and he can become a dangerous user when he has a lot of it. Will that combination of power go to your head?

With a feeling you’ve lost something other than bits of your memories, you and your brother embark on a mission. You both seek to find out where you are, what happened to you, and how to get back on track with achieving your primary goal: getting revenge.

But be careful, angel of Aether. There are many eyes aimed at you and your brother since your awakening, and mortal affairs tend sink anyone and everyone in like quicksand.

Fight humans, binders, lifelines, and whatever wants to pick a fight with you.

Will you show mortals to be or be not afraid of you? The power to kill or show mercy is in your hands. You may even influence your brother to do what you believe is right.
