Our Heroine Briar frank is a hermit, like a major hermit. She’s a fan of the occult and macabre who has a not so great view of life. Sick of the monotony and not much going for her social wise she decides to follow a random ritual she found on a sketchy forum. It was probably bullshit but god she was hoping for at least a little zest in her cramped apartment

who knew it would actually work? And furthermore-

-who knew a simple misspelling causes a completely different entity to appear? The sparkle filled and cutefied Cthuwu! her entrance caused Briar’s room to distort into what simply could be described as a psychedelic nightmare, inflict her with momentary madness, and had an almost fatal misunderstanding in which she got thrown into a completely different dimension, afterwards she was eager to receive an explanation, to which they were very happy with giving one.

it turns out heaven has been planning a do over on humanity for a long time after witnessing our chaos below and is finally arriving down on earth to grant us with loving salvation, of course in its eyes the only ‘salvation’ that could possibly save us is…death. It doesn’t help that whatever their sending is causing mass insanity to those who live to witness it’s ‘mercy’.

Now most other powerful beings aren’t blinking an eye at this, as to them its like a colony of ants being exterminated after a few millennia of them making a very big hill. Cthuwu however, finds humanity charming and worthy of life enough to want to defend it against this extermination…The only problem is on the power scale of beings she is..definitely on the lower side of it. So her plan?

Recruit as many otherworldly creatures to her cause as possible! And she needs Briar as her conduit for that.

Of course Briar doesn’t have much of a choice in this matter considering this elder god could easily turn on a dime if refused. so reluctantly, she took up the mantle of ‘magical girl chu chu Cthulhu’ to bring any monster-of-the-week she can find on humanity’s side while dealing with heaven’s army.

and even worse? She starts to yearn for connections, for people to be around her and like being around her…And It turns out those creatures might be a little bit of what she needs.

-whenever she gains the support of one they’ll leave a piece of themselves with her that is grafted onto her body and grants a new ability, along with a promise of their support in any particularly dire battle.

of course if they’re less…complying..Theres always the old fashioned way.

Yet she’ll need a lot of support if she wants to stop whats coming.
