What have you done to me? you ask through a blood-soaked throat.
A rhythmic thumping echoes in your ears. Cold, wet earth wedges between your teeth; your tongue feels fuzzy with dirt. You peel open your eyes.
Your pupils blow out, twinned voids drinking in what should be total darkness. Planks of plywood stretch overhead. Panic forces your hands up until you're scratching against the wood, scrambling for freedom. Terror and rage bleed out of every pore.
Soil falls into your mouth. You gasp. Oxygen floods your throat and sets it ablaze. You're on fire. Your stomach spasms, a cramp bringing tears to your eyes. Hollow--empty. Starving.
You've been buried alive.
"Knock it off. You'll be out in a second."
You wake up in a grave. Your grave. Fuzzy memories come crawling back. A nightclub. A stranger. A flashing smile; teeth in your throat. They creep back until you remember your own death. Before the details settle, steady hands pull you out of your casket. You've changed, the mouth that killed you explains. The caterpillar and the butterfly. You're something else, something better. A vampire.
I kissed you.
I killed you.
I turned you into a god.
FEATURES:
Be reborn as a fledgling vampire brought into a world unlike any you've ever known. The city comes alive at night, it turns out, for those whose hearts have long since stopped beating.
Play as a man, a woman, or nonbinary; trans or cis. Customize your appearance, your pronouns, and build up your fledgling's distinct personality throughout the game.
Embrace your new place as a creature of the night--develop your newfound abilities, get to know the other members of your coven, and find yourself knees-deep in a potentially deadly game of politics.
Or reject the life you never asked for. Seek out a cure and potentially help more than just yourself...or become obsessed with revenge, doing everything in your power to vanquish the undead.
Seek out love after death...or something like it.
Neverland is an 18+ dark supernatural romance work in progress in the early stages of creation. It's a story about terrible people doing terrible things to one another. And vampires. Mostly vampires. This is my secondary project and for the time being, updates will be extremely infrequent.
DEMO (tba) | ROs
Romance Options:
Remy (F/M/NB)
Your sire: your killer, your savior. A danger-obsessed gambler who took the risk of turning you before anyone else could get the chance. They claim to love you more than anything; but you can't shake the feeling that something is very wrong.
Soleil (F/M)
The head of your adopted coven. Like if you turned chaos into a creature of flesh, Sol destroys and creates in turn. They do whatever they want; they get whatever they want. Except, it seems, you. They're alluring and wild and utterly obsessed.
Melody (F)
A third member of your coven, and a tragedy brought to life. Unlike the others she insists she never wanted to be a killer. She's an innocent trapped in a world of grime and viscera, and she wants so desperately for you to save her. Won't you be her knight?
Dana/Dane (F/M)
Your overly gregarious neighbor who helped you move into your apartment. They've always been friendly, but after you stumble home covered in blood and changed forever they double their efforts to wedge their way into your life. Something about them is off, and you're left wondering if you're not the only one with secrets.
Isaac (M)
To your knowledge, Isaac might be the only covenless vampire in the city. He looks at you with a methodical detachment, like you're something to study. A scientist and a warlock, he's been hired to do something almost unheard of: find the cure for vampirism.
For nearly three years, a mysterious creature has terrorised the region of Gévaudan. Described by survivors as wolf-like and relentless, it kills indiscriminately, taking men, women and children alike, leaving behind only what the strongest could stomach. Many have taken up arms, from simple farmers and hunters to soldiers and even nobles hungry for glory.
None have succeeded.
To this day the mystery remains. Is it a wolf? A hyena? A werewolf? A wizard, or simply a human murderer? Somewhere between folklore and nightmare, between cautionary tale and genuine terror, the Beast of Gévaudan still eludes all.
Only one person knows the truth.
You.
Why?
Because you are the Beast of Gévaudan.
An 18th century interactive fiction set in rural France, while inspired by the real historical legend it is not an accurate historical one.
Play as a werewolf navigating grief, secrets, and survival in a world that would destroy you if it knew what you were. The Church and the Third Estate cast long shadows here, but misogyny, homophobia, racism and transphobia, while rooted in that history, have been deliberately pushed to the back. The fights were fought but the scars remain.
Play as a werewolf who is struggling with control over its form.
Full character customisation: pronouns & gender, hair color and texture, height, skin color, personality (between 4 possible), your job (between Blacksmith and Doctor), and more...
A reverse thriller at its core: you are the killer. You are what everyone is hunting. How long can you keep this up?
Navigate the politics of 18th century France: the Church, the Nobility, the Tiers État, and what it means to survive in a country on a verge of revolution, that was never built for people like you in the first place.
Branching narrative shaped by your choices: what you do, who you trust, what you hide.
Themes of grief, identity, redemption, found family, social and economical class, faith, and the particular terror of being known.
Four romanceable characters all with their own secrets, or, if that’s not your thing, play the friend route
Louisette "Lou" Valet
she/her | the innkeeper
(Lou is a trans woman and a lesbian)
Description: rozy skin often sunburnt, green-blue eyes, red curly hair, and freckles. She has the brightest smile in all the village.
Vibes: Your closest friend, your steadiest constant, the person who stayed when everyone else stopped trying. A friends-to-lovers romance for those who believe that the most terrifying thing in the world is letting someone who already loves you, sees all of you.
Camille Antoine
they/them | the king’s hunter,
(Camille is Non-Binary and Demi)
Description: warm black skin, tall, dark eyes and long eyelashes, with long locs tied in an intricate ponytail, broad shoulders. They're quite strong but in a slender way.
Vibes: they were sent by the king himself to do one thing: kill the Beast of Gévaudan. They don't know they've already met it. Warm, composed, and irritatingly good at everything. They try to hide the weight of expectation on their shoulders. A romance for those who like the workaholic golden one; who wish to see the person behind the veneer.
Alexis Chastel
she/her or he/him | the gamekeeper
(While Alexis gender is selectable, they are more of a "masc" person)
Description: Tall and strong in a heavy way, Tan skin, littered in scars, hazel eyes and a brown buzzcut.
Vibes: more comfortable in the forest than in any room with people in it. Alexis knows this land better than anyone. They know every trail, every creature, every hiding place. Quiet, but not unkind. The kind of person who shows up rather than speaks up. A romance for those who like gentle giants and Strong Silent types.
Hyacinthe
she/her or he/him | the bard
(While Hyacinthe gender is selectable, they are more of a "fem" person)
Description: French-born and Indian-descend, brown skin, dark hair, deep brown eyes, hair tied in a ponytail and a crooked nose. They are on the smaller side of average.
Vibes: Passing through, as always, and armed with a smirk that suggests they know something you don't. Hyacinthe arrives with a song, stays for reasons they won't admit, and leaves before things get complicated. A push-and-pull romance for those who like a reformed rake
[DEMO]
Content warnings: violence, gore, death (including animal and human death), themes of grief and loss, religion and class as sources of conflict, body horror (transformation), strong language.
Every fae, half-blood or not, is inherently bound to speak no falsehoods. Unable to lie, they have instead perfected the art of bending the truth. Centuries of bargains and curses have earned them humanity's fear and reluctant respect alike.
You were born of those two worlds, a half-fae shunned by both.
But you carried within an anomaly, an aberration on the Queen's sacred image, the ability to lie.
To keep your secret safe, the renowned sage known as the Peregrine took you in as their disciple. And under their patronage, you survived beyond the realm's scrutiny for most of your life.
Until now. When their disappearance forces you into the very world that would condemn you.
To uncover the truth, take your house's seat at the court in lieu of your missing mentor. Clear your name and unravel Elphame's secrets, twisting words and hearts alike.
᯽ MC Customization: Choose your name, alias, gender, pronouns, appearance, personality and orientation.
᯽ Patron and House: Choose your house's heritage, crest and name, as well as your history with your mentor.
᯽ Cast and Relationships: Meet 5 romanceable characters (4 of whom are gender selectable). Romance, befriend and antagonize them as you play.
᯽ Navigate the Fae Court: Explore Elphame and shape its story through your choices, ideals and lies. Discover the secrets hidden in the gaps across the seasonal courts, the grand archives and the forgotten corners of the realm of the fair folk.
᯽ Uncover the Peregrine's Mystery: Piece together the mysteries behind your mentor's disappearance, their hidden notes and their strange research into the Queen of Elphame.
᯽ The Prince/ss
Alias: The Envoy/The Human In Gold. Name: Yvaine/Ywain.
Human. Gender Selectable. (She/Her. He/Him.)
A royal diplomat sent to negotiate with the courts.
But you know the plain, grim truth. The gilded envoy is a tithe, a martyr that the human realm believed would appease the Fae Queen. However, refusing to play the victim, the Prince/ss gravitates to you, proposing an alliance to survive in the pit of glistening vipers you were both mercilessly thrown into.
Your childhood friend and the first proof you had that other half-bloods cannot lie.
Years ago, they left to serve the Winter Court. When they came back, you found that shy friend changed into a somber, solemn weapon. Though you suspect their work is darker than they let on, around you, that old innocent smile almost returns. You are the only person that still manages to make them laugh.
Your patron was supposed to be theirs, and they have despised you for stealing their prodigious spot ever since.
Even now, standing high as the Paradigm of Autumn, the sour expression on their face betrays they were never able to get you out of their head. They seem to believe you to be behind the disappearance of your own mentor, and have resorted to hounding you for a confession.
᯽ The Sovereign
Alias: The Dreamstalker/The Night Sovereign. Name: ???
Unseelie. Gender Selectable. (Fem. or Masc.) (They/Them.)
A mysterious unseelie entity who first began tormenting you in your sleep. But since your arrival at the courts, you find them stalking empty halls and appearing to you when you're alone.
They seem to be aware of your secrets, testing and teasing you to pry lies from your lips. As they offer favors and hidden knowledge, you begin to wonder if they might be involved with your mentor's disappearance.
᯽ The Herald
Alias: The Specter/The Exiled One. Name: ???
Fae. (They/Them.)
You've heard rumours about a specter, an entity so strange even the fae have made rules for. And that such specter is said to collect all that is hidden, discarded and forgotten.
If for some ill-fated reason you choose to summon the Herald, do not meet them without an offering, and never accept flowers from the Exile.
⚙ Hello! This project is a prototype I'm developing, please let me know if you'd be interested in playing!
If there's interest, the full RO Profiles, their art and the Lore Companion for this version of a fae world should be coming in the following weeks, and then finally the first part of the demo build! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
All art and assets were done by me. (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
I have a lot of fun drawing them, but please feel free to imagine them as you'd like.
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, EDEN and WINONA, where people online can submit requests involving paranormal activity in hopes of it being handled by you three investigators.
provided with footage, 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 tales from the gas station, 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. further telling that 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 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.

Questions of identity are tricky little things. Is a reflection the same as the thing it mirrors? Is it something lesser, or something entirely its own? You've had centuries to think about it and still haven't found an answer.
Granted, a lot of that time was probably spent sleeping.
What you do know is this (From a single memory and the unreliable recounts of a journalist): long ago, you awoke in a stone sarcophagus overlooking the sea. You probably wandered the land for years beyond counting, collecting stories, sights, and memories that never seemed inclined to stay put. Then, one day, you returned to where it all began and fell into a deep sleep.
And now, moon, you've awakened once more.
Play as...some form of physical manifestation of the moon. You're not too sure yourself.
Customise your moon. From their appearance, to their pronouns, to their personality.
Freeload off a poor paramedic or actually get a job.
Decide whether you feel closer to being human or something other.
Befriend or romance a cast of 6 characters, from a charming journalist to a person you've only seen in your memories.
Work with your new buddies to find out exactly what you are, and if your sudden appearance is linked to the strange phenomena happening in the seaside town of Merrow.
The Journalist: Nanya Walsh - She/Her [RO]
One of two journalists in town. And naturally, she knows everyone, for better or worse. Which made it all the more interesting when someone she didn’t stumbled into her dressed in soaked Ancient Greek cosplay. She thinks you make a wonderful Poseidon.
The Boyish Brother of Two: Charles "Charlie" Albright - He/Him [RO]
Everything about Charlie is colourful, from that flannel jacket he insists on wearing everywhere to that head of... red? Orange? Hair that very nearly blinds you whenever you stare at it for too long. And luckily for a waterlogged creature like you, he's more than happy to accommodate you in his wonderful household.
The Mayor's Daughter: Lucia Beauregard - She/Her [RO]
You get the feeling she hates as much attention as she receives, judging by that horrifying look in her eyes. But from the way she's constantly looking for it, you're not too sure. She's allegedly picture-perfect. You’ll be the judge of that. You’ll be seeing a lot of her after all.
The Town Pariah: Quest Rivers - He/Him [RO]
Just Quest, or Rivers. He hates the full thing. There's a rumour around town about his parents playing D&D when they were coming up with baby names. Luckily, you have more than enough time to get close and find out all his little secrets... somehow. He kind of scares you.
You Don't Actually Know: Warden Hearst - He/Him [RO?]
A psychologist? Doctor? Archaeologist? He's told you he's many things, helpful being one of them, and whether begrudgingly or not, you have to admit it holds true. He's taken a strange interest in you, as have many people around town. Yet his form of interest seems a bit... off.
A Fragment of Your Memories: Redacted [Partial RO]
You've seen them once and never again. In that one memory you have swirling around that jumbled-up head of yours. From what you remember, you were quite close. You don't know if they're still around, or if they ever existed in the first place, but you can find out.
