Possessed of a rare gift long dismissed as myth, you harbour the ability to divine using the literal threads of starlight that form the tapestry of time. When your sacred power finally draws the attention of the palace, the royals summon you to the capital and give you the title of Nursrava, the voice of the divine light. Once you arrive, you expect to live out your days in quiet service to the royal family.

Instead, you discover that the kingdom is on the brink of a collapse. A desperate crisis is unfolding beneath the palace's majestic facade, and your power makes you the ultimate prize. You are no longer a guest but rather a pawn caught up in the struggle between those who seek to exploit your power and those desperate to protect you and your precious gift.

Within the palace's vast stone halls, those you choose to mingle with may decide your fate. Whether your growing closeness arises from a forbidden glance during an encounter or a whispered promise in the dark, you must choose whom to trust with your life — and your heart.

Amidst the swiftly crumbling politics of this kingdom, you are the only one who can see the truth — but in a court built on lies, the truth may be more dangerous than you realize. As the walls close in, you must decide: will you surrender to the duty expected of you, or risk everything for the one who finally captures your heart?

Choose your gender (male, female, non-binary), physical traits and the gender(s) you are attracted to.

Shape your personality to reflect the kind of Nursrava you want to be.

Pick one of four potential romance options (either all male, all female or a random mix of genders): The Silver Tongue, The Exiled Sun, The Silent Shadow or The Celestial Anchor.

Shift the balance of courtly alliances and choose how involved you want to be in the kingdom's future.

Sameer/Samira [m/f]: The Silver Tongue (moodboard)

A lithe, kohl-rimmed blur of wit and charm, S is the palace's "necessary evil". The reformed thief who now deals in information, they navigate the royal court with a cynical charm and a sharp-edged attitude that is as much a weapon as it is a garment. They have no patience for "destiny" or the "divine", preferring to trust in the daggers at their hips and the opportunities they make for themselves. S is unpredictable, resourceful, and entirely too fond of a well-timed double entendre.

Devraj/Devika [m/f]: The Exiled Sun (moodboard)

D enters any space like a summer storm — all heat, noise and with undeniable magnetism. As the Citadel's most-loved military instructor, they wear their larger-than-life charisma like armour. They don't shrink themselves for anyone or any space, favouring bold laughter and storytelling that borders on the legendary. While they claim to be guarded against the nobility that view them — and their tumultuous past — as a threat, their generous heart is as open as the training grounds they command.

Najim/Nejma [m/f]: The Silent Shadow (moodboard)

Observed but rarely and truly seen, N is the quiet heartbeat of your daily life in the palace. Clad in the functional uniform of a bureaucratic aide, they are a master of the understated — always present with a cup of herbal tisane for your headaches, or a path cleared of obstacles for your ambitions. There is an intuitive stillness to them and a physical grace hidden beneath the facade of a civil servant. N speaks little but sees everything, moving through the court's shadows with a loyalty that feels ancient and absolute.

Jai/Jaya [m/f]: The Celestial Anchor (moodboard)

A figure of towering, lean elegance, J moves through the palace with the unshakeable gravity of the constellations they chart. Draped in heavy silks and accompanied by the rhythmic chime of gold jewellery, they represent the pinnacle of traditional scholarship and courtly prestige. As a master of astrology, a precise and logical discipline that relies upon mathematics, they are inherently suspicious of your esoteric sight. To J, the universe is a series of solved equations, but you are the variable that threatens to break their proof.

DEMO [TBA] ┃ ITCH.IO

FLESH REVIVAL is a narrative-driven paranormal and found footage horror game featuring themes of witchcraft and mythology, psychological distress, and mature, disturbing subject matter intended for 18+ audiences.

a self-built website with a youtube channel, created by you and your two best friends, where people online can submit requests involving paranormal activity in hopes of it being handled by you three investigators. provided with filmed footages.

most clients don’t ask too many personal questions, which is a good thing… for now.

anyway, want to communicate with ghosts? sure. need them banished from your home or business? a little difficult but not impossible.

when a new request comes in all the way from north dakota, there’s no way you’d turn it down. because this isn’t a case of one ghost. or even a family of them. it’s an entire location filled with unidentified entities.

camp hillbird in halvrest.

submitted by spitkisser00 (who is this person?), the request goes into detail about the town but focuses on camp hillbird, known as a hotel and camping resort. tourists and locals alike have reported seeing "specters" wandering the land.

the county police don’t bother with anything supernatural (they do not believe. not surprising.) so spitkisser00 turns to flesh revival instead.

they made the right call. after all, the resort and town would be in the hands of a ghost-hunting tech expert, an occult specialist, and you. the clairvoyant who can see the otherworldly with a membrane filter under your eyelids.

inspiration derives from franchises such as supernatural, silent hill, the ritual, the blair witch project, phasmophobia, and ghost files.

WHO ARE YOU ? fully customize yourself. choose your gender, pronouns, appearance, clothing style, personality, the skills you specialize in, and level up your clairvoyant ability.

GEAR UP FOR THE UNKNOWN. test out advanced ghost-hunting equipment, including new ones aided by the ahlstrand family.

DOCUMENTATION. own a detailed journal of everything you encounter. record evidence and their patterns, determine what kind of entities you’re dealing with. you will also get to read your self-entries.

TRUST NO ONE (OR DO ?) interview the residents of camp hillbird and the beyond with a voice recorder. there are open books, others are not as their secrets run deeper into the truth.

LEARN THE OLD WAYS. study protection and warding practices under crane, and collect items, incantations from “eccentric” individuals. you will have an inventory log of what you keep.

INVESTIGATE HOTSPOTS. search every corner thoroughly for hidden clues, strange markings and objects. the more you find, the better.

TEAM UP OR GET CLOSE. partner with others to unlock new paths. along the way, relationships can grow from platonic to something more if you can manage them.

ROMANCE OPTIONS. RESIDENTS OF CAMP HILLBIRD

AKSEL / ALEKSA HAUSTEIN [M or F] The Reckless Lagomorph. the one who sent your team to camp hillbird in the first place. yes, they are spitkisser00. A works as a tattoo artist and is an avid fan of your paranormal youtube channel, fascinated by every strange thing flesh revival manages to uncover. with a reckless appetite for adventure and a talent for making bad ideas look fun, they insist on joining the investigation as your self-appointed guide.

PERCY / PIERCE DILLANE [F or M] The Bleeding Hound. a traveler returning to halvrest to help at their uncle’s auto shop, while also taking on fishing work around camp hillbird to keep their family afloat. unfortunately, they also happen to be someone from your past. as one of the people tied to the ugly history you and your friends would rather forget. even if they are almost impossible to ignore, the sharp-tongued P wants nothing to do with your investigation or with you. though somehow, bad luck keeps forcing the two of you into each other’s orbit.

TAKANE / TAKERU MEGURO [F or M] The Hillbird. the owner of camp hillbird and the architect responsible for much of its design, making them the person standing closest to every secret buried beneath it. however, for someone so elegant and frustratingly unreadable, T is being haunted. if anyone holds the truth about camp hillbird, it's them. you just have to be persistent enough to get close.

MAVERICK WARDWELL [NB] The Crooked Stag. a well-known regular at camp hillbird with a jack of all trades reputation. hunter, horse rider, professional bargainer, you name it. charming to a dangerous degree, maverick trades secrets for favors. whether they are helping you or simply entertained by you remains unclear.

SALEM ABERNATHY [trans M] The Sentient Vulture. a park ranger assigned to oversee camp hillbird, meaning he also has to deal with you and your friends. salem spends most of his time patrolling the grounds and making sure no one gets themselves in trouble chasing ghosts in places they absolutely should not be (aka you guys). he's armed with too little sleep and the patience of a man being tested by the universe.

Will you follow the example of your forbearers and rain calamity upon the land, or forge something else for the future? Whatever happens, The Hero will never leave Your side.

A young Chinese actor by the name of Yu Menglong has been brutally murdered by wealthy and powerful individuals within China, and the CCP are protecting his killers by claiming he committed suicide.

There’s misinformation about this case going around online, both AI and human generated. But there are trustworthy sources. Here is one incredible video that goes into great detail (~1hr 30mins, part 2 should be up in about a week), and another that’s more condensed (~30mins) but no less credible.

Yu Menglong was kind-hearted and humble. He taught schoolchildren, engaged kindly with fans, and donated his earnings to children with cancer, natural disaster relief, and public libraries. If you, like me, believe that this man - and the many others like him who have “committed suicide” within the past few decades - deserves justice, PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION! The goal is at least 500,000 signatures and we are almost there.

You can't save him.

You wake up by the side of the road with a splitting headache and a stranger's jacket.

You don’t recognise it. You don’t recognise the man whose ID you find in the pocket, either. 

So why does an older version of you stare back when you turn on his phone?

[genres: romance, historical fiction, low fantasy]

This is a 18+ historical gothic-horror-romance interactive novel. Inspiration was taken from classic gothic literature and modern dark fantasy such as: Brotherhood of the Wolf (Le Pacte des Loups), Crimson Peak, The Bloody Chamber, and the folklore surrounding the Beast of Gévaudan. Also it will be set in 1764 France and though I will try to make it somewhat historically accurate, I will also take some creative liberties(like my research has not stopped and history fascinates me), I mean besides the whole fantasy stuff.

I want to explore certain themes, like the MC duality and the beast within, human monstrosity and supernatural, trauma, guilt, identity, reason vs superstition, and of course feminine rage , along with bodily autonomy. (So do not come at me asking if MC can be male).

Content Warnings: This story is intended for a mature audience. It will explore themes of psychological horror and will include explicit violence and gore, body horror (related to lycanthropic transformations), sexual themes (explicit sex scenes, including references to and mild depictions of sexual assault), religious fanaticism, and gaslighting.
