Hi! I am new to writing and IF's in general. This blog is meant to represent my current IF, Hunted, and any other potential future IF's done by me, Nervous_Panda. Thanks for giving my games a try!
Demi-humans were outlawed years ago, shunned for their inhuman traits and ability to transform into their animal form with the ease of breathing. Perhaps it was the prospect of having to fight a being with the cunning of a human, and the ruthlessness and power of a wild animal.
Or maybe the sight of someone that looks so fundamentally different from themselves was just too uncomfortable for humans to bear. Regardless, it doesn't matter. The law has spoken, and so tens of thousands were caught and persecuted by the human raceâif not outright enslavedâfor their uniqueness.
And now there is you.
Living on your own and on the run is not exactly an ideal circumstance to find yourself in. Especially if you're a demi-human, which you just so happen to be.
No longer allowed to live a normal life, how will you take on this challenge? Will you learn to trust others again, to allow yourself to be vulnerable? Or will you stubbornly try to forge your own solitary and lonely path through this tiring world?
Features:
⢠Play as either male, female, non-binary or trans; with the option of using your own custom pronouns.

â˘Pick whether you look more feminine, masculine, or androgynous in appearanceânot including clothes as of yetâregardless of gender or pronouns.
â˘Decide between three different types of demi-human options for your character, each with their own specific impact on how others may view you: Bear, fox, or a deer/doe.
â˘Make meaningful choices that shape your character's personality, and how they view the world.
â˘Customize your character's appearance in multiple different ways: height, body type, hair, eye colour, and skin tone.
â˘Tweak with your animal form's appearance.
â˘Go on a journey of trying to find trust again, maybe even to love: with the added option to be oblivious to RO's advances.
Romance Options:
Gen(evieve)/Garant (f/m) 24
G is a rather tall person, with a muscled yet toned figure, accompanied by pale skin and piercing grey eyes. These features blend well with their midnight black hair, which tends to be pulled back into a messy ponytail.
Preferring solitude and silence over company any time of the day, their attire seems to convey their intent just as well; clothes in shades of black, with their trusty longsword at hand to discourage any who try to near.
Alex/Alyssa (m/f) 23
A's sun-kissed skin compliments their sunny and almost carefree personality well, taking nothing away from their soft hazel eyes. Their hair is wavy and a tawny brown, falling in loose waves to just below their chin/shoulders.
Their clothes tend to be vibrant and warm on their slender frame, although it's best not to threaten anyone close to themâeven if they may be of average statureâas you will soon find yourself with an arrow or dagger sticking out of your body!
Ravi (f/m) 27
If G can be called tall, Ravi is massive. Towering over even the tallest of people, their physique does little to dispel any fear. With wild ash-blonde hair cut haphazardly to just below their shoulders/ears, naturally cream-coloured skin brings out their nearly golden eyes.
Ravi's clothes are those of a seasoned mercenary, practical and simple in their appearance and utility. When their natural charm doesn't seem to do the job, a massive greatsword tends to help any unruly conversations along. Or so they've found.
Content Warnings:
â˘Mention of/and alluding to past abuse, sexual harassment/abuse (optional and skippable), slavery, and other forms of bodily harm.
â˘Mentions of current violence and bodily harm; blood and grievous wounds (not in too explicit detail).
â˘Not recommended for persons under the age of 18.
Demo: TBA | Forum: TBA | Word Count: 10k w.o code
This is my first time writing an IF, so please be patient with me!
I'm not sure what the etiquette for minimum word count before publishing a Demo is: I just wanted to get the Tumblr page aspect out of the way so long.
To ensure no confusion and to be completely transparent, I've added the word count and current status of the Demo at the top of the post as well as below, here. I've come to find that I am a slow writer, just be warned.
Since this is a very early-stage project, some changes may occur in this post as well as the story itself.

There will be four romance options for you to choose.
Lucy Westenra (F):Â Your once childhood best friend whom you share a past with. (Can be extremely jealous and clingy)
Jonathan Harker (M):Â Your sweet fiancĂŠ who is currently in a land far away from that of your own.
Van Helsing (M/F):Â An experienced and knowledgeable Dutch hunter with a wide range of expertise.
Dracula (M/F): A mysterious Transylvanian noble with dark secrets.
Your memories only go five years back, to when you woke up in a subterranean tunnel system with nothing but a name. Now you reside in the Holy City, capital of a post-apocalyptic world ruled by a faction called the Religious. Â
After a near-death experience at the hands of a crazed angel, you're suddenly thrust into a building conspiracy surrounding a corpse-worshiping cult, divinely mad saints, and something buried far, far beneath the earth. Â
To top it all off, you're being plagued by nightmares you can't explain, as well as your rapidly returning memories. Â
Or⌠someone's memories, anyway.
Features Â
Choose your first name, gender, and appearance.
Customize your character's personality, including their opinions on magic and the Religious.
Make choices that affect the plot, other characters, and even your own sanity.
Unravel the history of the Religious and the apocalypse they claim to have brought the world back from
Characters (descriptions here)
The Mercenary: Val (nb/m/f)
A hired blade with a chaotic streak, as well as the closest thing you have to a friend. Easy-going and unpredictable, Val is usually the one to get you into trouble, but is always there to get you out of it.
The Handmaiden: Klaus Kirkhall (m)
A high-ranking member of the Religious. Klaus is pragmatic with a dry sense of humor, but takes his responsibilities deeply seriously. You get the intense feeling he know something - many things - that you don't. Â
The Priestess: Ira Auclair (nb)
A priestess working in the lower districts of the Holy City, extremely devout and deeply interested in the history and lore of the Religious. They spend their time searching archives to fuel their (slightly blasphemous) theories. Â
The Spy: Kat Saxon (f)
Claims to be a priestess, but is barely trying to hide the fact that she's clearly anything but. Her merciless stare and unshakeable confidence dare anyone to call out her suspect nature. Â
The Muscle: Dane/Dana Constantine (m/f)
An officer of the Blessed Guard, working directly under Klaus. Constantine is quick to anger, and is an absolute brick wall when challenged. While deeply loyal, Constantine isn't afraid to give their employer a piece of their mind.
The Saint: Guinefort (nb)
world's soggiest beyblade
Poly Options: Val/Klaus and Ira/Constantine
Content warnings: violence, blood, heavy religious themes
You're intro seems interesting can you share a bit more about the ros backgrounds? Also how tall are the ros?
Oh wow, hi! I didn't expect to get an ask already. Thanks for your kind words and interest <3
The backgrounds of G and A are a bit of a secret for now, but you'll be able to figure it out in the story as you read on. They do have a long shared history, though, having known each other for years by now. A is the youngest, with G being a bit older than them.
But as for Ravi, a brief background, they are a mercenary who likes to travel the world to see as much of it as possible, always searching for something interesting and exciting to distract themself with. They are the oldest of the RO's, with the most worldly experience, but not necessarily the most mature out of them.
Now, for the heights: I couldn't find any time period accurate avatars, so I ended up just using what felt in line with the characters more. You'll see down below.
In After Hours, you step into the shoes of a single parent trying to keep your life â and your livelihood â from collapsing. Between long nights, thin apartment walls, being a parent and the constant pressure to hold everything together, youâve mastered survival.
But routine starts to crack when new connections form in the most unexpected places. As responsibilities grow heavier and emotions become harder to ignore, youâll have to decide how much of yourself youâre willing to risk.
Will you protect the walls youâve built â or break them down?
Key Features:
Play as male, female, or non-binary; customize your sexuality.
Shape your parenting style â protective, relaxed, strict, or emotionally open.
Balance personal relationships with the demands of running a business.
Navigate conflicts, late-night confrontations, school problems, your child growing up and community drama.
Build (or damage) trust with three love interests. (2 gender optional and 1 canon non-binary)
Ilya / Anastasia
âYour neighbor is the kind of person who can be grumpy and blunt at first, often snapping or rolling their eyes without meaning to, but underneath that rough exterior is a teasing, playful side that comes out once you get to know them. Confident and independent, they speak their mind freely and carry a presence thatâs hard to ignore, even when theyâre being difficult. Loyal and protective of the people they care about, they have a magnetic charm that draws people in despite their initial rudeness.â
Richard / Rachel
âYour child's teacher is calm, patient, and quietly confident, with a presence that makes others instinctively trust them. They are intelligent and perceptive, noticing details most people would miss, and reliable in both thought and action. Warm and gentle, yet strong when the situation calls for it, they balance kindness with quiet authority, offering guidance and steadiness without ever being overbearing.â
Dakota
The chef âof the restaurant next to your work exudes elegance and quiet confidence, moving with a refined, attentive presence that feels intentional without being flashy. Soft-spoken but firm, they notice the little details others overlook and approach life â and their craft â with discipline and care. Artistic and graceful, they have a subtle charm that draws people in naturally, combining warmth, sophistication, and an appreciation for beauty in everything they do.â

For the few of you who manage to read this, does it matter to you if I gender-lock a certain RO? You will meet both G and A fairly early on, but Ravi will probably be a fair bit later on in the first part of the story.
I have a very specific idea and mini-plot behind G and their gender specifics, but I felt only having two other gender selectable RO options might not make it that ideal, especially if one of them only appears later on.
So if I make G gender selectable, I'll have to scrap that idea, unfortunately.
I'm on the fence for this, so any responses into your own thoughts as my potential readers would be super helpful.
First time posting something, so hopefully everything works correctly.
Do you prefer G as gender-selectable, or gender-locked?
