Family: Ferocidae (the Fierce Ungulates)

A family of small-to-medium-sized ungulate-like creatures, marked by a blend of herbivorous base physiology and predatory adaptations.

General Traits of Ferocidae:

Compact, muscular bodies.

Cloven hooves adapted for stability on rocky or forested terrain.

Horns or cranial weaponry (spiraled, straight, or forked depending on genus).

Highly territorial, with scent glands near hooves or face.

Primarily herbivorous but opportunistically omnivorous.

Fierce temperament despite modest size, making them difficult to domesticate.

Genus & Species Examples within Ferocidae

Ferox unicornis – Common Unicorn

The most iconic member.

Spiraled forehead horn, silvery coat, fierce solitary temperament.

Known for rare affinity to bond with humanoids.

Ferox bidentis – Bicorn

Slightly larger than unicorns (110 cm at the shoulder).

Twin horns arching outward like curved daggers.

Less magical affinity, more physical strength.

Ferox caprunculus – Capricorn

Upper body of a goatlike ungulate, lower half replaced by scaled, piscine tail. Horns long and ridged.

Thrive in coastal cliffs and deep sea caves.

Less aggressive, but fiercely protective of territory. Sing low, eerie bellows under the water.

Ferox lunaris – Moonhorn

Nocturnal cousin with pale-blue luminescent horns.

Said to have stronger ties to the moons Auralis & Emberin.

Revered as omens, especially during double full moons.

Ferox sanguinorbis – Crimsonhorn

Rare desert variant from Ebony Sands.

Reddish-golden coats, horns that can grow up to 50 cm long.

Known to be far more aggressive; will gore intruders without hesitation.

Ferox parvulus – Foelhorn

Smallest known subspecies (60 cm tall).

Sometimes domesticated by fae for herding or companionship.

Horn is shorter, often blunt or twisted like a ram’s.

(I dont know why tumblr mess with my perfect list....

7. Ferox kirinus – Kirin

Graceful, deer-like body, often with golden scales scattered across legs and spine. Hooves sharp, almost stiletto-like, able to pierce stone. Single horn smooth and pearl-colored.

Peaceful by nature, but their kicks and charges are devastating when provoked.

Seen as semi-divine; often associated with harmony and purity.

8. Ferox alicornis – Alicorn

Larger than common unicorns (130 cm at the shoulder). Possess both one spiraled horn and feathered wings.

Fiercely elusive, almost never seen in groups.

Considered the rarest Ferocidae.

9. Ferox nocturnus – Duskstalker

Black-coated, with narrow, spike-like horns that resemble shadowy antlers. Eyes glow faint violet.

Stealth hunters, unusually predatory compared to other Ferocidae. Opportunistic omnivores—will scavenge or ambush small prey.

Gloamveil Expanses, shadowed forests.

Considered cursed; their horns fetch high value in black markets for use in shadow-magic artifacts.

Considered the rarest Ferocidae; many scholars argue if they still exist in the wild.

10. Ferox ensifer – Bladeskull (Inspired by @aphractal2's unicorn designs)

Medium Ferocidae, about 140 cm at the shoulder. Sturdy, deer-like or goatlike build with a single “horn” that is not bone, but the visible hilt of a sword embedded in their skull. Their presence feels heavy, as though standing near a sheathed weapon. Their eyes glimmer like steel.

The “blade” is planted inside their head, it is a chain/whip sword coiled along their spine to renforce it. The hilt looks different per individual (wrapped leather, jeweled pommel, simple iron crossguard), hinting at the nature of the sword within.

Extremely cautious and mistrustful. Known to test potential allies relentlessly before allowing them to come near.

A Bladeskull’s “horn” can be drawn by a chosen partner (human, fae, beastfolk, etc.). Drawing the sword renders the Ferox ensifer entirely harmless: their horns and primary means of defense are gone. The sword is immensely powerful, infused with the Ferocidae’s life essence. It can cut through enchantments, ward off corruption, and channel the wielder’s magic more potently than ordinary weapons.

If the Ferox dies, the blade turns to ash wether it’s still inside or have been drawn.

To “draw” a Swordhorn’s blade requires absolute trust. If betrayed, the Ferox ensifer will never allow that person to touch the hilt again, and may even turn hostile. Legends say that only those with “hearts unclouded” can earn a Swordhorn’s bond—and once the bond is made, it lasts until death.

Me: What makes you think that I’ll like that? You can’t make me like that!

Game Makers: Are you sure about that 😏

(Also pertains to Fibble from @valy-gc LoWR)

Me:…

Game Makers: 😏

Obey Me! MC, Legends of the Written Realms MC and Twisted Wonderland MC/Yuu taking tea :D

So... I rarely do this but I wanted to share my though, cause I feel alone right now. This is my opinion/feelings about them, it's fine if you don't have the same though.

Everyone is fangirling over thoses two.

yes, Minajael (wtf is that name?) is hot. Yes, ok. But why does he look like a smug a**hole? What's this mocking evil smirk? You can't tell me that guy is not a girl/boyfriend stealer or a sarcastic b*tch.

Ok, he doesn't really disappoint. His clothes are nice too (guess this is the dorm uniform?) I'm ok with the hype for Minajael.

Now... about Rielle. This is were I disagree with a lot.

I guess they wanted to give him the big curious eyes of Ariel....but.. ugh...

So when I look at him I see a bald baby head with a wig on an adult body. That freak me out. WTF is wrong with his hair?? I mean the front bangs! The rest of the hair looks fine I guess, but the bangs????

And his clothes...... errr... I like all the little references but I really don't like the outfit in a whole. Some colors just don't fit together. They clearly tried to mix both the tail/bra with her pink dress, while they should have just stay with one. There is too much misplaced things. Only one belt was necessary, or at least make something more pirate-like,that would have been cool...

So no, I really don't like Rielle's design. ANY speculative fanarts I've seen of him were better. Litterally any.

Then, my last issue, same with Neige too. They are basically a copy-paste gender bend of the princesses.

Yes it is the case for Malleus too actually, but he was kinda the "face" of the game, appearing on most ads for it, so he had to be ressemblant. As for the other, they share one, maybe two trait with their original villain inspiration, the rest is a real work of creativity that makes them unique. Vil is blond when the evil queen have black hair, same with Riddle who have crimson red hair instead of black, Idia only have the flaming hair that are the same, I guess the yellow eyes too, some characters were not even super evident to guess.

Here, for Rielle, for Minajael, for Neige too (Chen'ya don't count, because the beastkins are all just human versions of the animals, though the nrc ones still show a lot of difference, like Leona don't have pitch black hair, Ruggie either, while both Scar and the hyenas have a pitch black mane/crest) I just feel like I'm watching a princess genderbend fanart. This disappoint me.

Take someone who is not part of the fandom, show them the NRC boys (dorm uniform, so it's an equal chance) and make them try to guess which character they are based off. I did with my mom, and the only ones that have been guessed right were Malleus, Idia, Riddle (but mostly because of his clothes), Leona and Ruggie. Even Jamil have been labelled as Jasmine or Aladdin before thinking of Jafar.

Now do the same with the rsa boys. Again did with my mom, and she immediately guessed it. And it was not even "maybe it's-" no, it was "Oh that's Ariel!" "well, easy, this is Jasmine" "Snow-white without hesitation"

You see what I mean?

Well... originally a dating sim game idea that will be a novel because I don't have any programmation skills nor the money to pay some developpers, but I like it and got lots of ideas for it so let's just share it.

If you want to make a OC and/or your MC from it, then have fun, I would love it ^-^ (list of existing ones at the end ^^)

It's a dating sim, mix between "Twisted Wonderland" and "Obey me!"

This is mostly ideas thrown like this in a messy way. But you can now read the novel version here:

everything under the cut

Name: Sphynx

Scientific Name: Felis aenigmatica French Name: Sphinx

⤷ Classification:

• Kingdom: Animalia • Phylum: Chordata • Class: Mammalia Magica • Order: Carnivora • Family: Felidae • Species: F. aenigmatica • Type: Magical Guardian Beast • Alignment: True Neutral

⤷ Appearance:

• Size:

Shoulder height: 1.7–1.9 m (5'7"–6'3")

Height to top of head: 2.5–2.8 m (8'2"–9'2")

Body length (nose to rump): 2.3–2.7 m (7'7"–8'10")

Total length (including tail): 3.4–4 m (11'2"–13'1")

Weight: 300–500 kg (660–1,100 lbs)

• Head: A remarkably human-like face with a slim, flattened nose. Juveniles possess a distinctly feline face with large, round eyes and a short muzzle. As they age, the face elongates vertically while the muzzle flattens, producing their iconic serene appearance. Their eyes become narrow and almond-shaped, framed by naturally dark eyelids resembling elegant eyeliner.

• Body: Powerfully built feline body with tremendous musculature concealed beneath a sleek coat. Despite their immense strength, their movements are graceful, measured, and almost silent.

• Fur: Short, dense coat in shades of cream, ivory, golden beige or pale sand in females. Males display darker coats ranging from tawny brown to deep chestnut and dark umber.

• Wings: Present only in females. Large feathered wings capable of sustained flight despite the creature's considerable size. Primarily used for patrolling territory, reaching elevated perches, and protecting nesting grounds rather than long-distance migration.

• Limbs: Massive feline paws equipped with retractable claws capable of carving through stone or enchanted metal when necessary.

• Tail: Long, flexible feline tail ending in a dark tuft used for balance and communication.

• Other Details:

Long hair/mane grows continuously throughout life and serves as protection agaisnt the sun.

Eyes possess exceptional night vision.

Their gaze appears almost constantly half-closed, giving them an expression of permanent calm.

Cubs have oversized ears, round eyes and noticeably softer facial features.

⤷ Reproduction & Behavior:

• Sexual Dimorphism: Strong. Females possess wings, red eyes and much lighter coloration. Males completely lack wings, have yellow eyes and are consistently darker. Aside from these traits, both sexes are physically similar.

• Intelligence: Comparable to elephants, dolphins, or great apes. sphynxes fully understand spoken languages and can remember conversations, individuals, and places for decades. They are not sapient and possess no civilization, culture, or technology, but display extraordinary reasoning and memory.

• Vocalization: Among themselves they communicate through purrs, chirps, growls, body posture, scent and numerous feline vocalizations. When addressing humanoids, however, they can use words and talk, but they possess an instinct unlike any other known creature: every sentence they voluntarily speak becomes a riddle. This behavior is entirely instinctive rather than cultural.

Young cubs often produce nonsensical riddles, absurdly simple riddles, or accidentally include the answer while asking. As they mature, both the complexity and elegance of their riddles naturally increase. They are perfectly capable of understanding direct speech from others.

• Reproduction: Viviparous.

Gestation lasts approximately 11 months.

Litters contain 3–6 cubs.

Cubs nurse exclusively during their first month.

Meat is gradually introduced during the second month.

• Parental Care: Among the strongest recorded in Scriptoria. Females primarily serve as hunters and aerial guardians, spending much of the day patrolling territory from cliffs or high branches while periodically returning to nurse their young. Males remain almost constantly with the cubs, feeding them, grooming them, teaching survival skills, introducing them to riddles, and engaging in play. Both parents will defend their offspring without hesitation.

⤷ Ecology:

• Diet: Obligate carnivore. Prey includes:

Deer

Wild boars

Large birds

Mountain goats

Magical beasts

Occasionally fish

Humanoids are never hunted despite persistent legends.

• Habitat: Ancient ruins, mountain temples, sacred forests, abandoned shrines, forgotten libraries, secluded cliffs and magical landmarks. They are naturally drawn toward locations of historical, magical or emotional significance.

• Behavioral Pattern: Primarily diurnal. Extremely calm, patient and nurturing. Most individuals spend long periods resting while quietly observing their surroundings from elevated locations. They rarely initiate violence and generally avoid unnecessary conflict. A sphynx may guard the same location for centuries simply because it finds the place beautiful or meaningful.

• Territoriality: Rather than defending territory aggressively, sphynxes defend whatever they personally decide deserves protection. This may include:

Ancient ruins

Sacred relics

Forest clearings

Sleeping cubs

A lonely bridge

A village entrance

Occasionally... someone's own front door.

Once settled, they challenge approaching humanoids with riddles before allowing passage.

• Natural Enemies: Virtually none. Adult sphynxes possess few predators due to their immense magical and physical abilities. Only the largest manticores, cephalogres or similarly powerful magical creatures pose any realistic threat. Cubs remain vulnerable. Anatomorphes are not smart enough to understand they should not attack them and may try to eat the cubs.

• Population Control: Naturally slow reproduction combined with large territories keeps populations low.

⤷ Cultural Status:

• Threat Level: Extremely High (Potential). Actual encounters are overwhelmingly peaceful. A sphynx possesses enough physical and magical power to eliminate nearly any opponent, but almost never chooses violence.

• Nicknames: Keepers of Riddles, Temple Lions, Silent Guardians, The Watchers, Feathered Judges (females)

• Legality: Protected in nearly every kingdom. Harming a sphynx without immediate justification is considered a major crime in many regions. Attempting to capture or domesticate one is illegal almost everywhere.

• Human Interactions: Despite their fearsome reputation, sphynxes are remarkably fond of humanoids. They display particular affection toward smaller peoples such as goblins, gnomes, dwarves, rodent beastfolk, and children, whom they often regard with the same fascination humans reserve for kittens. While impossible to domesticate, lifelong friendships often develop. A friendly sphynx may casually settle near a village or household and remain there for decades.

• The Riddle Instinct: Contrary to legend, answering incorrectly does not result in death. Instead, the sphynx becomes visibly proud and simply refuses passage or access to whatever it has chosen to guard. Answer correctly, however, and the sphynx becomes mildly offended before leaving, only to return later with an even more difficult riddle. If someone answers ten riddles correctly in succession without a single mistake, the sphynx concludes it has been defeated and reluctantly abandons its chosen post. When guarding a friend's home, however, it rarely leaves permanently. It typically returns days later with renewed determination and an even harder riddle. If a beloved friend consistently fails, the sphynx gradually begins offering easier riddles instead, eventually abandoning the challenge altogether while affectionately rubbing against them.

• Smiling: One of the most misunderstood aspects of sphynx behavior. Wild sphynxes do not smile from happiness. A smile is an instinctive predatory expression displayed immediately before or during a hunt. Many cultures preserve a common warning:

"If the wild sphynx show you its grin, no road remains to save your skin."

However, sphynxes living alongside humanoids often imitate human facial expressions through observation. Some eventually learn to smile as a gesture of affection despite its original biological purpose.

⤷ Biological Weaknesses:

Cubs remain vulnerable for several months.

Large wings make females slightly less agile on the ground than males.

Their protective instincts toward cubs can override otherwise excellent judgment.

Extended isolation without mental stimulation causes obvious boredom; they actively seek opportunities to challenge humanoids with riddles.

Although physically capable of tremendous destruction, they instinctively avoid lethal force whenever possible, making them surprisingly predictable against malicious opponents.

⤷ Additional Notes:

• Lifespan: 250–500 years. Some exceptionally old individuals are believed to exceed 700 years.

• Magical Abilities:

Innate barrier magic around chosen territories.

Extraordinary resistance to hostile magic.

Exceptional perception capable of sensing magical disturbances over great distances.

Some ancient individuals appear capable of recognizing lies through subtle behavioral cues, though whether this is magical or observational remains unknown.

• Memory: sphynxes rarely forget a face. A traveler who once answered a sphynx's riddles decades earlier is often greeted with a more difficult one upon returning.

• Folklore: The widespread tale that sphynxes devour anyone who fails a riddle is almost entirely fabricated. Scholars believe the myth likely arose because very few travelers were willing to repeatedly admit they had simply been outwitted by a giant magical cat and politely turned away.

• Domestication: Impossible. They are to fierce to be treated as pets. Friendship, however, is surprisingly common, and once a sphynx considers someone part of its extended "family," it may watch over them for the rest of its life, even if it continues asking them riddles every single visit.

Any fan of Obey me here? Sorry... I had to XD

Name: Angel

Scientific Name: Oculomys coronatus

(Oculus = eye, mys = mouse/rodent, coronatus = crowned)

French Name : Ange

⤷ Classification:

• Kingdom: Animalia • Phylum: Chordata • Class: Mammalia • Order: Rodentia • Family: Angelidae • Species: O. coronatus • Type: Omnivorous Pest Mammal • Alignment: Chaotic Curious

⤷ Appearance:

• Size:

Shoulder height: 18–22 cm (7–9 in)

Body length: 35–45 cm (14–18 in)

Weight: 3–5 kg (6.5–11 lbs)

• Head: A compact head blending traits of rodents, mustelids, and small felines. The muzzle is short and slightly tapered, giving the face a surprisingly gentle appearance. Four long ears, two on each side of the head, hang gracefully and remain highly mobile, swiveling independently to detect the faintest sounds. Despite belonging to the rodent order, Angels possess unusually elongated, needle-like incisors rather than the broad chisel-shaped teeth seen in most rodents. These incisors grow continuously throughout life and are constantly sharpened through gnawing, allowing them to chew through wood, leather, soft metals, plumbing, and many common building materials with remarkable ease. The most distinctive feature is the circular "halo" above the head. Contrary to popular belief, this is not an ornament but a true horn. Young are born with two short horns that curve inward as they grow. After the first two years, they fuse seamlessly into a complete ring of keratin.

• Body: Compact and agile with a flexible spine allowing it to squeeze through remarkably narrow openings.

• Fur: Dense, soft coat varying from cream and sandy beige to grey or pale brown. The underside is usually lighter.

• Feathers: Present only in males. Large, brightly colored decorative feathers emerge from the shoulders and upper back. Despite their resemblance to wings, they are completely incapable of flight. They serve exclusively for intimidation, courtship displays and visual communication. Females entirely lack these feathers.

• Limbs: Short but nimble legs ending in dexterous paws capable of climbing, digging and manipulating small objects.

• Eyes: The Angel's body is covered with numerous fully functional eyes. Every eye is connected to the nervous system and contributes to its vision, granting an almost complete panoramic field of view.

• Tail: Long balancing tail ending in a small fur tuft. The tuft is of a bright color for the males, but brown or grey for the females.

• Other Details:

Constantly growing incisors require frequent gnawing.

The horn ring continues thickening throughout life.

Every eye blinks independently.

⤷ Reproduction & Behavior:

• Sexual Dimorphism: Highly pronounced. Males possess colorful ornamental feathers and slightly larger horn rings. Females completely lack decorative feathers but retain the characteristic halo horn.

• Intelligence: Comparable to rats or raccoons. Exceptionally curious and capable of solving simple mechanical problems, opening containers and remembering food locations.

• Parental Care: Moderate. Females raise litters of 4-8 pups inside elaborate nests hidden in attics, walls, hollow trees or abandoned burrows. Young remain with their mother for approximately two months before dispersing.

⤷ Ecology:

• Diet: Omnivorous. Feeds primarily on:

Seeds

Fruits

Roots

Mushrooms

Insects

Bird eggs

Stored grain

Household food reserves

It also habitually gnaws wood, leather, cloth, pipes and numerous construction materials, not for nutrition, but to wear down its continuously growing teeth.

• Habitat: Forests, farms, villages, caves, cities, abandoned buildings and virtually any place inhabited by humanoids. Their remarkable adaptability allows them to thrive almost anywhere.

• Behavioral Pattern: Primarily nocturnal. Exceptionally inquisitive and fearless. Angels constantly investigate unfamiliar objects and frequently steal small shiny trinkets for no apparent reason. They often establish nests inside granaries, warehouses, roofs or barns, where entire colonies may remain unnoticed for months.

• Defense Mechanisms: Rather than fighting, Angels rely on awareness and agility. Their numerous functioning eyes make ambushing one nearly impossible. Unfortunately, this extraordinary vision comes with a drawback. In environments containing excessive movement, crowded streets, stampedes or large gatherings, the overwhelming amount of visual information can become disorienting, causing hesitation, dizziness and confusion.

• Natural Enemies: Owls, foxes, snakes, wild felines, griffins, hydras and numerous medium-sized predators. Young are especially vulnerable.

• Population Control: Their high reproductive rate is naturally balanced by heavy predation. Humanoid settlements frequently organize pest-control campaigns to prevent infestations.

• Adaptation to Civilization: Although strongly associated with human settlements, wild Angels living too far from villages instinctively seek out goblin cave systems. Goblin warrens provide warmth, abundant food stores, and countless tunnels that closely resemble the cramped spaces Angels naturally prefer. This has resulted in a long-standing, often reluctant coexistence between the two species. Goblins frequently curse the creatures for stealing food, chewing through their machineries, and nesting inside their homes.

⤷ Cultural Status:

• Threat Level: Low. Although harmless to people, Angels are considered one of the most troublesome household pests throughout Scriptoria.

• Nicknames: Halo Rats, Hundred Eyes, Feather Rats, Pantry Ghosts, Ringtails

• Etymology: Naturalists believe their name originated from Faespeak, though no consensus exists. Three principal theories remain debated:

Aenjyr - "Pest"

Aenghyl - "Thief"

Ahn'giel - "Mischief"

Ironically, all three descriptions fit the animal remarkably well.

• Legality: Wild individuals may be kept under permit in many kingdoms. Commercial breeding is regulated due to the risk of accidental infestations. Releasing captive Angels into the wild is punishable in several provinces.

• Human Interactions: Few animals divide public opinion as dramatically. To homeowners, they are destructive nuisances capable of ruining food stores, chewing through plumbing, furniture and wooden structures.

To enthusiasts, however, Angels are affectionate, playful and surprisingly intelligent companion animals. Owners frequently insist they are "just misunderstood giant rodents."

Most skeptics remain unconvinced, explaining that they have no desire to wake during the night and discover dozens, or hundreds, of tiny eyes quietly staring at them from the foot of the bed.

⤷ Biological Weaknesses:

Overwhelming visual stimulation causes confusion and temporary disorientation.

Poor endurance over long distances.

Decorative feathers make males more conspicuous to predators.

Continuously growing incisors require constant gnawing; individuals unable to wear them down may eventually starve.

Their horn ring can become temporarily lodged while squeezing through very narrow openings.

⤷ Additional Notes:

• Lifespan: 8–15 years.

• Collective Noun: A group of Angels is called a Choir. The name originated from the strange rustling produced by dozens of decorative feathers moving simultaneously through walls and attics.

• Economic Impact: One of the costliest pest species in Scriptoria. Damage includes:

Destroyed food reserves.

Damaged plumbing systems.

Chewed furniture and textiles.

Structural weakening of wooden buildings.

• Domestication: Partially possible. Captive-bred Angels readily bond with caretakers and enjoy climbing in arms, hiding in clothing and accepting treats. They nevertheless retain all the instincts of their wild counterparts and require constant environmental enrichment to prevent destructive chewing.
