don't be a dick
mun info
satan. any pronouns. 21+ / EDTi am rarely active on the dash, and often miss IMs, so i prefer for all ooc interactions to take place on discord --- available to mutuals by request.
blog info
this is a private / independent multimuse blog for original characters as well as characters from various fandoms.this blog is low to medium activity & runs almost entirely on a queue. reply backlog is typically between one to three months - please keep this in mind before following.everything on this blog was created by me. please do not steal !
following
i do not follow for follow. if i follow you, it means i want to write with you, if i haven't reached out / interacted yet, it's just because i'm slow ( and sometimes forgetful ).i do not follow sideblogs, single blogs of characters from media i haven't consumed, ocs with no easily accessible bio, blogs without clearly posted rules. sometimes i won't follow just because i don't know your muse(s) and am unsure how we would interact.if you feel the need to unfollow, please DO NOT soft block me, i will likely think i unfollowed by mistake and i'll follow back because i want to write with you / like having you on my dash. please just unfollow ( i check my mutuals periodically ), and i will do the same, or hard block if that makes things easier for you.
interactions
the best way to start a new interaction with me is to send a meme ! you are always welcome to send a meme, whether we've never spoken, or we write together all the time. it might take me a while to get to them, but when i do i will turn them into a starter for us to continue.i am always down for pre-established relationships, as i find ( most ) first meetings to be awkward and get boring quickly. i only ask that you do not assume a romantic relationship ( unless it's canon ) without discussing first or it naturally occurring through threads.i format using small text, double spacing, character-specific banners ( so icons do not change for each reply ), and colors for emphasis ( bolds / italics ). i do test my colors on all dash themes for readibility, but if you need me to adjust any of this for our threads, just let me know !
characterization
heterosexuals, in this economy? not in this house. all characters can be assumed to be QUEER regardless of their canonspeaking of... all canon characters can be assumed to be CANON-INSPIRED and not strictly compliant - this can be discussed in depth prior to interactions if you prefer.
triggers
this blog will contain triggering content.i personally do not have any triggers, and i may forget to tag things. please let me know if there is something that you need me to tag, and i will do my best, within reason.
most importantly
have fun !
this is a hobby, not a job.
i will treat it as such, and i hope you remember to do the same.now drink your fucking water ♥
...but, having fallen, it was blood.

MUSES.
the rain fell upon my head and the lilies sighed in the solemnity of their desolation.
the moon arose through the thin ghastly mist...
...and it was crimson in color
mine eyes fell upon a huge gray rock...

location: verse dependent
birthplace:
cretemanhattanspecies: god
abilities: so many... but he doesn't remember.
occupation:
god of the underworldbusiness ownerallies:
his family, persephonecolleaguesadversaries:
kronos, titans, demeter, shayhis familyalignment: lawful neutral
faceclaim: john david washington
available verses: aidon's default verse is this modern au explained below, which takes place in hell's kitchen where he's a business owner. in addition, he also has a more traditional myth - based verse where he's the hades, god of the underworld we're used to. other crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
we all know the story of hades, god of the underworld. he is the caretaker of the souls, master of good doggo cerberus, husband of persephone.what you may not know is that hades is a reasonable god, one that cares for mortals ( unlike most ), and he is not the villain of this story.in modern day, the great love of hades’ life — persephone — dies but her soul is trapped in the prison tartarus, keeping her from being with him — leaving him obviously devastated. in his desperation, hades appeals to the fates to grant her reincarnation, knowing that he will not be able to be with her again until her next death, but unable to bear the thought of her trapped forever. with their help, hades expends most of his power to return persephone’s soul to earth, planning to essentially wallow for a few decades while his strength returns.unfortunately for him, while he sneaks a visit to earth to oversee the rebirth of his love, a very powerful witch whose appeals to have her sister brought back from the dead have gone unanswered ( and who blames hades for her loss ) chooses this — his weakest moment — to strike with a curse that leaves him with no memory of who he is or where he belongs.instead, he believes himself to be a mortal man of the earth, estranged from his family, with no recollection of his realm or his responsibilities.
his mortal identity ( and what he wholeheartedly believes to be true ) is as follows:aidon kronuson — also referred to as the king of hell’s kitchen — grew up in a wealthy family that was always held in high regard, part of the new york elite.
when his father passed, hades and his brothers each inherited large swathes of lands and established businesses throughout new york city. after drawing straws to determine who got what, hades’ territory became hell’s kitchen.
at first frustrated by his luck due to the state of disrepair and poverty his side of town was known for, hades soon came to realize that his father ( and grandfather before him ) had allowed hell’s kitchen to decline because they had not felt its people worth the money and effort for the restoration and upkeep of their neighborhood.
unlike many of his family and their ilk, hades has never viewed himself or the wealthy of the city as better than its other citizens.he began to put his time and money ( and his own labor ) into restoring what he could, replacing what couldn’t be restored, and promoting the new face of hell’s kitchen. it took time, but the area began to gain popularity for its art and music and diversity --- lifting up businesses owned and ran by marginalized individuals, promoting inclusivity.despite his altruistic tendencies and love for his city, hades rarely makes public appearances and is in fact most often found in oceanus - the hotel he owns, though he usually remains unseen there as well. oceanus boasts a popular night club --- lethe --- that refuses to employ guest lists like other hot spots in the city, so that everyone gets a fair chance at entry. this makes it one of the most sought after night life locations in ny and once the sun goes down, the sidewalks are always decorated with people waiting in line to get in.his upbringing and wealth have not made hades selfish or greedy, ( though it is said that making a deal with him might cost you your soul ). rumors abound that he is cold and distant, and though scarcely seen, the truth is that hades is charismatic and fun-loving…. once you get to know him.
alistair soleira
name: alistair soleira
age: appears to be in his 20s
location: verse dependent
birthplace: unknown
species: half-celestial
abilities: shadow manipulation
occupation: adventurer of sorts
allies: celestials, good-aligned outsiders, humans
adversaries: fiends, demons, evil-aligned outsiders
alignment: chaotic good
faceclaim: lee taeyong
available verses: alistair can easily fit into any fantasy or modern fantasy verse (since he's half celestial, he has a long lifespan). for a modern non-magic verse, he is a grad student studying anthropology. other crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
From Alistair Soleira's earliest days, he was cradled in the embrace of ancient tales, his imagination fired with the deeds of heroic ancestors and the resonance of their long-forgotten adventures. As a child, Alistair spent hours daydreaming about emulating the gallant heroes of old, his mind a canvas upon which he painted visions of grand quests and noble exploits.However, the thread of destiny wove a complex pattern for Alistair. As he entered his early twenties, a somber shadow descended upon his homeland. A wicked sorceress, her heart a black chasm of malevolence, cast her sinister spell across the land. A horde of nefarious beings, like nightmarish tendrils, crawled from the abyss to plague the kingdom. The once-vibrant realm quivered under the weight of impending doom, and the people's hope flickered like a candle in the wind.Even without knowing the full tapestry of his heritage, Alistair felt the weight of his ancestral birthright call out to him. With a heart steeled by determination and courage, he shouldered the mantle of his lineage. He knew he must embark upon an odyssey that fate itself seemed to have ordained. Guided by the celestial hands of destiny, Alistair set forth on a perilous journey to reclaim the stolen light that the sorceress had snatched away.The path ahead was fraught with danger and uncertainty. Alistair traversed hallowed domains that bordered the kingdom, his steps marked by resilience and growth. Every battle honed his skills, every obstacle polished his resolve, and every setback deepened his understanding of the world's complexities. Yet, it wasn't solely the prowess of his blade that he honed – along his journey, he discovered latent powers within himself, ancient magics that coursed through his veins, remnants of a legacy that had been hidden for generations.Within the depths of his wandering, Alistair unearthed the truth of his lineage, the umbral power that surged within him, the legacy of his forebears' valor and enchantment. This revelation emboldened him further, solidifying his purpose and urging him to press on. He forged alliances with kindred spirits who shared his resolve to see an end to the sorceress's reign of terror. Each of his companions brought their own unique strengths to the table, forming a formidable fellowship united by a common goal.As Alistair's odyssey progressed, he found himself not only a student of sword and magic but also a beacon of hope to a kingdom shrouded in darkness. His name echoed through the tales of commoners and bards alike, becoming synonymous with the courage to stand against overwhelming odds. He bore the weight of the world's longing for salvation, carrying the dreams of his childhood into a reality where he could truly embody the hero he'd imagined.
bin yeongji
name:
bin yeongjijiage: unknown
location: verse dependent
birthplace: goryeo
species: warlock
abilities: siphoning, elemental magic
occupation: verse dependent
allies: three kingdoms of korea (formerly)
adversaries: other magic users, probably
alignment: verse dependent (usually true neutral)
faceclaim: hwang hyunjin
available verses: ji can easily fit into any magic-inclusive verse. in a non-magic / non-modern setting, depending on the timeline, he would be an apothecary / healer. in a non-magic modern setting, he'd likely be a college student, or early graduate, keeps to himself mostly, dealing with a lot of Trauma™ and doesn't really like to let people get too close. other crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
born in the early 10th century, yeongji was destined for greatness from a young age. part of a line of warlocks spanning back as far as time itself, his mother sinjeong dreamed of the limitless possibilities awaiting her only son.as a boy, he watched his mother's work as the royal healer, hoping that one day he too could be held in as high regard as his family and his ancestors. despite the magic in his blood, however, ji was never blessed with the same healing power that his mother possessed. instead, his own powers tended more toward destruction. still, he spent his entire childhood in the castle, and when his mother fell ill, there had been no other skilled enough to which her work could be passed on. her official title as royal healer had been only a piece of her position with the king - also taking on the role of royal advisor in secret.and so, the mantle was passed on to ji, who spent his teenage years learning how to best serve his ruler while also working tirelessly to try and save his mother, whose sickness had manifested in ways no one could understand, leading the young warlock to believe she'd been cursed. but as his mother grew sicker, ji's powers seemed to flourish - as she weakened, he became stronger.on her death bed, once the room had cleared to give mother and son a last moment of peace together before the inevitable end, it was sinjeong herself who revealed the truth of her ailment. with sorrow in her voice, she told her son what she had suspected for a long time - that he had been slowly draining her power since he was a boy. she did not share this discovery to fill him with guilt (though it surely had that impact), but to caution him for the future - he would need to be extremely careful in order to protect those close to him. her last breaths were taken with both love and fear in her eyes, and that expression would haunt ji's dreams for centuries to come.but with his grief came something else - a surge of power that seemed to have transferred from sinjeong to her son in her last moment. it was this that ji focused on - the rush that flowed through him and the addicting feeling of newfound power seeming fit to burst free. it was unlike anything he'd ever felt before, and he would spend much of his future years chasing that feeling again - even to the detriment of others.his destruction of other magic users would come with a price, however. this need for more power was like an addiction, but it also needed to be released as holding too much could deteriorate his seemingly immortal body from the inside out - or worse, his mind.this realization came to ji after a particularly challenging battle with a sorcerer from a northern kingdom a few years after his mother's death. absorbing the man's magic upon his defeat, the blissful rush of energy was followed by shocking pain as he struggled to contain it all. without understanding how to control so much power, he passed out from the effort, and woke later to learn that he had lost his grip on it leading to an explosion of magic that left ruins in its wake. it took him weeks to recover from the toll on his body.the centuries that passed did not cure ji of his need for more power, however, he simply learned to control it better. in modern times he is often found in solitude - at times traveling to far ends of the earth in order to keep this addiction in check. it's far more difficult to remain under the radar in the age of constantly advancing technology.

species: unknown (phoenix-like powers)
abilities: resurrection, fire elemental powers
occupation: verse dependent
allies: ???
adversaries: unknown, but someone did try to kill him

In the early 90s, Im Jaehwa lived a life that was unremarkably typical. Growing up in a cozy home with both parents and his two younger sisters, he experienced the joys and challenges of childhood just like any other kid. He attended school diligently, achieving decent grades and forming close friendships along the way. As he entered adulthood, he left the comfort of his home to pursue higher education at a business school. University brought new experiences and friendships, while a part-time job at a campus café helped him balance his studies and social life.However, the course of his life took an abrupt and inexplicable turn during a fateful camping trip. Jaehwa had always been cautious and rational, qualities that caused him to hesitate when his friends suggested a reckless chasing game through a dark and perilous forest. Despite his reservations, he decided to join in, unknowingly stepping into the sequence of events that would change his life forever.The details of that ill-fated night remained shrouded in mystery. He would later swear that his fall from the cliff was far from accidental. The incident was traumatic and ended his life, but it marked the beginning of an even more bewildering journey. Several weeks after his supposed death, he was inexplicably reborn.This rebirth took place in a blaze of fire, a phenomenon that transpired unseen, considering he had already been interred in a graveyard alongside his departed family members. Miraculously, he was not dead anymore, a fact he grappled with as he tried to come to terms with his new reality. Yet, he had no time to ponder his resurrection, for a pressing question took precedence: who was responsible for his death?With no precedent for his situation and no way to communicate it, he understood that revealing himself to his loved ones could have dire consequences. Either he'd become the subject of scrutiny and experimentation or, even worse, his reappearance might endanger those he cared about. Therefore, he chose to adopt a new identity - becoming Choi Yuri - and quietly commence his investigation into the events that had led to his demise.As he delved into his own enigmatic past, he confronted a multitude of perplexing questions. Was his unique ability to be reborn known to others even before he discovered it himself? Could his death have been a part of a sinister experiment? Was there someone with a vendetta against him, determined to keep him permanently silenced? And if so, what had he stumbled upon that made him a target?Yuri's journey for answers led him down a path filled with danger, secrecy, and unexpected allies. Uncovering the truth behind his own death became more than just a personal mission – it evolved into an exploration of hidden powers, conspiracy, and a world beyond the ordinary. The once-typical life of Im Jaehwa transformed into an extraordinary quest for justice, identity, and the unearthing of a purpose he could have never foreseen.
deianira lambros
name: deianira lambros
age: ancient
location: verse dependent
birthplace: unknown
species: fury
abilities: immortality, superhuman strength and agility, healing, shapeshifting
occupation: no job, just a life-long mission
allies: unknown
adversaries: every vampire alive
alignment: chaotic neutral
faceclaim: angelina jolie
available verses: nira is immortal so she can exist in any timeline / verse. she's essentially a fury and so fits easily into mythology. she's a little mad in modern days after spending centuries basically winging it. crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
Deianira Lambros was born into a world teetering on the edge of chaos. Her creation was not a mere accident of fate but a deliberate design aimed at restoring equilibrium to a realm besieged by darkness. Her mission was ambitious and perilous: she was destined to be the harbinger of balance, tasked with eliminating a formidable menace that plagued humanity – the vampires.From her very inception, Deianira's existence was intertwined with a profound sense of purpose. Born with powers beyond the realm of mortals, she was conceived as a weapon of retribution, a force of nature forged to rectify the ancient curse that vampires had cast upon humanity. But this mission evolved into something deeply personal when, during her formative years, her family fell victim to the very creatures she was destined to annihilate. This tragedy ignited an unquenchable fire within her, molding her determination into an unyielding quest for vengeance.The passage of centuries marked her journey across the world. She immersed herself in the diverse cultures, witnessing humanity's evolution through the ages. A nomad by necessity, her search for the descendants of the vampire bloodline was a tireless endeavor. While rationality whispered that the present generation couldn't be held accountable for the sins of their ancestors, her heart remained steadfast in its conviction. To her, the taint of evil persisted within their blood, and eradication was the only answer.Throughout the ages, her fearsome abilities garnered her a reputation as a witch, a being capable of wielding supernatural power with catastrophic consequences. The echoes of her actions resonated through time, causing myths and legends to blossom. In an era long past, a village had borne witness to her extraordinary might and mistaken her for a deity. These pockets of devotion persisted as cults in modern times, a testament to her indelible impact on the collective human psyche.Yet, Deianira's understanding of herself was marked by uncertainty. The ones she believed to be her family, her mentors in the ways of her unique gifts, were cruelly extinguished during her childhood, leaving her bereft of guidance. She aged, albeit at an excruciatingly slow pace, prompting questions about her immortality. Her true nature remained elusive, a puzzle she yearned to solve.In the annals of ancient lore, she might have been likened to an Erinye, a Fury of old who meted out vengeance and retribution. But her identity was an enigma even to herself, shaped by the tempestuous emotions that fueled her extraordinary power. Navigating the ethereal boundaries between the mortal and supernatural, she continued to walk the fine line between divine avenger and tormented soul.Deianira's existence was a saga of relentless pursuit and internal conflict, driven by both her birthright and her personal tragedies. As time flowed on, her legend endured, a living testament to the boundless depths of human determination and the paradoxical interplay between vengeance and redemption.
dillon kane
available verses: dillon can easily fit into any modernish verse with a crime / mob presence. in a non-criminal setting he would just be a guy in his early 20s who's very smart but kind of a troublemaker and who has a bit of an inferiority complex. crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
dillon kane was born ho duri in the small county of boseong in south korea. his family moved to the states when he was still a small child, changed their names, and began working for a family that promised them safety and prosperity.dillon was well into his teenage years when he learned the truth of his parents' work - and their employers. the good fortune they promised was the kind that was bought with blood and illicit activities, and it was with some shock that dillon realized he was being groomed to do the very same thing. but he was still just a kid, and while his best friend luca apparently happened to be the son of a mob boss, dillon was just his friend - and the son of two of his father's employees.like dillon, luca was a bit of a troublemaker and they often found themselves hanging out in parts of the neighborhood that any responsible parent would worry about, they experimented with drugs and alcohol, and even got a thrill from petty theft.unlike dillon, luca's family had the means to make any kind of trouble go away. so toward the end of their high school years - when the two were caught with a known drug dealer and stolen merchandise from an electronics store - dillon was the only one who ended up in cuffs.
despite luca's attempts to bail him out, dillon's parents thought he deserved to learn a lesson (the irony was not lost on him) and opted to let him stay at the police station overnight..but he got more than he bargained for.when the cops realized who he'd been brought in with, they saw a unique opportunity to use this seemingly naïve kid for their own gains. calling in the feds, dillon was offered a deal: inform on the family, and he wouldn't pay a fine for his crimes or worse - end up with any jail time.for a while, dillon reported back innocuous things about the family's comings and goings - information that he knew would be useless to their case. but once he turned 19, he was brought deeper into the fold - and officially began working as a sort of bodyguard for his friend, realizing that this had been the intention all along, and why their parents had allowed the two to become so close. when the feds caught on to his new role, dillon was pressed to provide more relevant information regarding the family and their business undertakings.but while he'd already been working for ( and gaining some loyalty toward ) the feds for years at this point, he had also grown so close to his friend ( now employer ) that he couldn't bear anything happening to him... and dillon knew that whatever fate would fall on the family, luca would not escape the brunt of it.so he does his best to play both roles - dutiful bodyguard and loyal friend, as well as obedient spy - while not giving too much of himself to either occupation.but how long can he keep it up? and who will suffer the most once the jig is up?
ilhaneul
name: ilhaneul
age: unknown
location: earth, unfortunately
birthplace: heaven
species: angel
abilities: immortal, superhuman strength and speed, healing, telekinesis, illusion
occupation: unofficial demon slayer
allies: heavenly beings, good-aligned non-celestials
adversaries: demons, evil-aligned beings
alignment: lawful good
faceclaim: lee felix
available verses: ilhaneul's main verse takes place in a modern setting, though he can exist in time period on the heavenly or earthly planes. other crossover / au ideas are always welcome !
on the heavenly plane, where luminous beings navigated the currents of divinity, there existed a resolute angel named Ilhaneul. Much like his celestial kin, his essence was woven from the threads of obedience and devotion, an embodiment of heaven's principles. His purpose was singular: to serve the laws of the divine, to be a dutiful sentinel upholding the cosmic balance, and to execute the sacred mandates handed down by his superiors.Ilhaneul was a paragon of fidelity, a steadfast enforcer of heavenly directives. His existence was an unswerving ode to unwavering loyalty, a narrative that echoed in harmonious chorus with his celestial counterparts. The archaic dance of cosmic harmony reverberated through his every action, each step a meticulously orchestrated rhythm in the symphony of higher purpose.In the celestial haven, where angels tread amidst celestial gardens, an unforeseen tempest surged. An intrusion, malevolent in nature, clawed at the borders of paradise, catching even the vigilant guardians by surprise. Chaos cascaded like shattered constellations, disrupting the celestial order that had long prevailed. In the midst of this tumult, Ilhaneul's wings, an extension of his angelic identity, were forcibly relinquished, plummeting him through the ethereal expanse, the sanctuary lost.Finding himself upon the cradle of earth, Ilhaneul was a fallen star bereft of celestial radiance. His descent damaged his honor and pride, an angelic soul stripped of the gilded robes of divine servitude. The memory of the cosmic skirmish that transpired was fragmented, wisps of recollection suspended in a mist of confusion. The terrestrial realm unveiled itself to him, an unfamiliar tapestry woven from hues of humanity, and Ilhaneul's celestial grace was but a phantom whisper in this new reality.Survival became an art, an alchemy that required reshaping his existence. With tattered wings of aspirations, he navigated the labyrinth of mortal life. The weight of his celestial heritage bore heavy upon his shoulders as he adapted to the earthly realm, a realm of limitations he had never known. Yet, a glimmer persisted in his eyes, a light of hope that kindled beneath the shroud of his altered identity.A determined notion took root in his heart. To return to the celestial embrace, to reunite with his lost wings, and to mend the rupture of his identity, he embarked on a mission fueled by his angelic duty. Demons, harbingers of darkness that swayed humanity's course, became the focal point of his quest. It was through combating these malevolent forces that he sought to draw heavenly attention and earn the grace to ascend once more.Days morphed into weeks, weeks into months, as he waged his silent battle against the shadowy abyss. Each demon quelled, each heart whispered away from corruption, was a note in the unfinished opus of his return. His wings remained absent, a constant reminder of his estrangement from the celestial tapestry.Time flowed, its passage a testament to patience and perseverance.

The journey from celestial heights to earthly soil had sculpted him anew, a confluence of mortal and ethereal. His saga, a tale of determination, uncertainty, and the enduring flame of hope, painted the canvas of existence with shades of both joy and sorrow. Whether he would find his way home or forge a new path within the boundaries of his chosen exile, the cosmos held its secrets close, and Ilhaneul's story continued to unfold against the backdrop of eternity.

Naomi Wilson (née Fernandez) was born and raised in Clearlake, California. Her childhood was marked by the constant struggle of living in a household with a sick mother and an alcoholic father. Despite the challenging circumstances, Naomi displayed an incredible resilience from a young age. She knew that the only way to lift her family out of their dire situation was to take matters into her own hands.At a tender age, Naomi began working to support her family. She found herself washing dishes at a local diner, getting paid under the table just to make ends meet. It was in this diner that she met Mr. Thompson, the owner of the establishment. In Mr. Thompson, Naomi found a mentor and a surrogate father figure, a role model who taught her the value of hard work and perseverance. With his guidance, Naomi transitioned into a legitimate full-time role as soon as she reached a suitable age.Naomi's high school years were far from typical. While her peers were focused on school and extracurricular activities, Naomi was splitting her time between attending classes during the day and working the second shift at the diner every night. Despite the exhaustion, she held onto a dream that kept her going: the dream of attending culinary school after graduation. She yearned to become a skilled chef and leave behind the struggles of her upbringing.However, life had a different plan for Naomi. By the time she graduated from high school, her father had abandoned the family, and her mother's health had deteriorated further. Naomi's dreams of culinary school were shattered by the overwhelming responsibility of caring for her ailing mother. She continued to work tirelessly, but her aspirations seemed to slip further out of reach.A glimmer of hope appeared when Naomi stumbled upon free gourmet cooking classes offered at a local hotel. It was here that she repeatedly encountered Shane, a man who seemed to be coincidentally present at every class. They began to form a connection, a spark of attraction that evolved into a romance. Shane portrayed himself as a hotel employee, and Naomi pretended she was researching to open a high-class restaurant. Their shared aspirations and mutual attraction led them into a whirlwind romance that soon deepened into love.As their relationship deepened, the truth emerged: Shane's family was not only wealthy but also owned the hotel where they had met, along with numerous other businesses in Los Angeles. Naomi, on the other hand, remained a woman from humble origins struggling to find her place in the city. Despite the differences in their backgrounds, their love remained strong, and they decided to take their relationship to the next level.Shane's family strongly opposed their engagement, convinced that Naomi was after their wealth. The couple's determination prevailed, and they married despite the familial disapproval. Their love was genuine, and they hoped to prove the family wrong.Just three months into their marriage, however, tragedy struck.A hit-and-run incident occurred late at night as Naomi was driving them home from a party. Despite Naomi not being over the legal alcohol limit and evidence pointing to the other driver's culpability, the accident led to her husband being put on life support.Trapped in a legal nightmare, Naomi found herself facing unjust accusations. The Kyeong family believed she had orchestrated the entire marriage as a scheme to gain access to their considerable wealth. The lack of resources on Naomi's side meant she was defenseless against the powerful legal action taken against her. The public defender assigned to her case proved ineffective, and the mounting pressure left Naomi with little hope for a fair trial.In this darkest hour, a glimmer of hope arrived in the form of Adele Dewitt, offering Naomi a way out of her seemingly insurmountable situation. The offer came with a price: five years of her life in exchange for freedom. Faced with an impossible decision, Naomi had no choice but to accept, ultimately entering the enigmatic and secretive Los Angeles Dollhouse. This unexpected twist marked the beginning of a new chapter in her life, one that was shrouded in mystery and uncertainty.

lyssa’s life started like that of any other - the product of two people who had found their way to one another and created another human with whatever that had entailed. lyssa would never really know their story, though - if they’d been in love, or just some random screw, if they’d wanted her, or just found out one day when it was too late to change their minds - because they abandoned her to her fate when she was only weeks old. later - as she began to realize her abilities - it would start to make sense. how can someone - even parents - nurture a child they cannot even touch?From an early age, Lyssa discovered a power within her that was both extraordinary and dangerous. She had the ability to control a person's rage with a mere touch. While her unassuming appearance suggested nothing of the immense power she held, her touch had the potential to unleash chaos and devastation. This incredible ability left her isolated, unable to experience the simple comforts of physical affection that most people take for granted.
With no one to turn to and nowhere to call home, Lyssa found herself on the streets. She learned to master her power, honing the ability to control when and how she would use her touch. Survival became her primary focus, and she adapted to a life of avoiding physical contact while also discovering moments when her power could serve her advantage.It was during one such moment that her life took an unexpected turn. Working at Bunny's, a strip club, seemed like an unlikely choice for someone with her abilities. However, Lyssa knew how to leverage her power to her advantage. When a patron's advances turned aggressive, she instinctively used her touch to render him powerless. Little did she know that her actions would lead her to uncover the club's connections to the criminal underworld.The revelation about the club's mob ties changed the trajectory of Lyssa's life once again. Her actions drew the attention of the club's owners, who recognized the unique potential she possessed. Her ability to incapacitate individuals with a simple touch made her an invaluable asset to their illicit operations. Seizing the opportunity, they promoted her to a more significant role within their organization.Lyssa's unassuming appearance proved to be her greatest asset in this new line of work. Underestimating her was a grave mistake that her new employers capitalized on. Her role transformed from a vulnerable stripper to a formidable bruiser, carrying out the wishes of powerful individuals who operated in the shadows of Southern California.She became the secret weapon of one of the region's most influential figures. Lyssa's ability to subdue even the most dangerous adversaries made her an indispensable asset to her boss. Her willingness to embrace her power, her ability to manipulate and control, garnered her a reputation that struck fear into the hearts of those who dared to cross her or her employer.In a world where power reigns supreme, Lyssa Kedves carved out her place, embracing the darkness that came with it. Her journey from abandonment to becoming a secret force of nature demonstrated her resourcefulness, adaptability, and the extent she was willing to go to secure her own survival and prosperity.

Marcus Duncan's life had always been one of responsibility and dedication. Growing up, he had embraced the role of a protective older brother to his kid sibling, shouldering the task of ensuring his safety and well-being. His unwavering commitment extended to his interactions with teachers, parents, and anyone he encountered. It was this sense of duty that guided him toward enlisting in the military once he came of age, as if it were the next logical step in his journey.As he embarked on his military training, news arrived that shattered Marcus' heart. His beloved mother was sick, a harsh reminder of life's fragility. Despite his best efforts to secure leave, the wheels of bureaucracy turned too slowly, and by the time he was granted permission, his mother had already passed away. Grief threatened to engulf him, but Marcus found solace in the intensity of his training. The drills, the discipline, and the physical challenges became his way of navigating the complex terrain of his emotions.It was during one of these rigorous training sessions that Marcus caught the attention of Equinox, a covert organization operating within the shadows. They saw something exceptional in Marcus—the way he threw himself into his tasks, his unwavering determination, and the spark of potential in his eyes. An opportunity presented itself during a visit from Equinox recruiters, and Marcus seized it. He yearned for a new purpose, a higher cause that would give his life meaning beyond his military training.Rumors and whispers had always surrounded Equinox, but Marcus hadn't paid them much mind. He was driven by his own desire to contribute, to make a difference. However, things took an unexpected turn after he had established himself within the organization. The very man who had recruited him, the one who had once embodied the ideals of Equinox, suddenly turned his back on the organization. This abrupt betrayal raised countless questions in Marcus' mind—questions about loyalty, motives, and the true nature of Equinox.As a consequence of his connection to the defector, Marcus found himself under a cloud of suspicion and scrutiny. Equinox saw fit to punish him for his perceived association with someone who had departed with their secrets. His once-promising trajectory was abruptly altered, relegating him to the role of a glorified babysitter. His charge was an enigmatic young girl, seemingly fragile and unassuming. Yet, Marcus couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that there was more to her than met the eye.The girl's presence posed a mystery—one that gnawed at Marcus' curiosity. Why was he assigned to protect her? What kind of trouble could she possibly attract? Why did Equinox deem her important enough to warrant his attention? These questions echoed in Marcus' thoughts, driving him to dig deeper, to uncover the layers of secrecy that surrounded this girl and his own organization.As Marcus delved into the unknown, he began to realize that Equinox was far more complex and intricate than he had ever imagined. Loyalties were fluid, motives were shrouded, and truths were elusive. The quiet girl under his protection held secrets that could reshape his understanding of everything he thought he knew. And in his quest for answers, Marcus would discover a web of intrigue, betrayal, and a truth that could change the course of his life and the destiny of Equinox itself.
max ; lore
In a world where women inherit mystical abilities or warrior prowess passed down from goddesses, the power of bloodlines has shaped society for centuries. Those without such abilities are regarded as outcasts, considered less than their gifted counterparts. This dichotomy traces back to the time of the first goddesses when women's otherworldly talents were discovered intricately woven into their DNA. A balance was sought between this supernatural power and traditional military strength, leading to the pairing of powerful women with kings and generals. This practice gained traction among those in power, forging connections between the realms of magic and authority.Around fifty years ago, a pivotal moment shifted the course of history. Antonio, now a respected general in the Tuscan army, fell deeply in love with Iliana, a healer. However, her affections were divided as she was also courted by the prince of the neighboring nation, Ostor. Recognizing the potential for an alliance between their countries, Iliana chose the prince, much to Antonio's anguish. Infuriated by the perceived betrayal, Antonio sought to change Iliana's decision through force, only to have her reveal that she carried the prince's child.Feeling spurned and humiliated, Antonio turned to his mentor, a commander in the army, with concerns about the potential dangers of allowing magic users to marry those in positions of authority. Antonio's fears of manipulation and control took root in the minds of his fellow soldiers, ultimately resulting in a law being passed to prevent such unions. Iliana, however, had already given birth to their child, Katerina, who displayed immense power inherited from her mother's magical lineage.As the tension escalated, Iliana trained Katerina rigorously, teaching her to harness her formidable light magic skills. The two lived in constant flight from Antonio's wrath, leading to a war that engulfed both nations. Following Iliana's eventual death, Katerina found love in Odhran, a soldier from the enemy nation of Ostor, and together, they forged a path away from the battlegrounds.Their journey led them to the serene settlement of Sicuran, where they found acceptance and refuge among strangers. Katerina used her powers to shield the village, making it appear as an unapproachable lake to outsiders. Only those with good intentions seeking sanctuary would be able to cross its barrier. Among the people of Sicuran, Katerina and Odhran met Harold and Alice, a couple who shared a similar tale of forbidden love. Despite age differences, they became fast friends, finding solace and companionship in one another.The couple welcomed a daughter named Moira into their world, but their restless spirits led them to frequently embark on journeys to assist others in need of protection. During their absences, Harold and Alice provided a loving and nurturing environment for Moira. As the threads of fate weave their stories together, these individuals form an intricate tapestry of love, sacrifice, and resilience against a backdrop of a world defined by power imbalances and ongoing conflict. The bonds they share provide them strength as they navigate a world that often seeks to divide them.

Max's journey began in a world gripped by conflict, a world where abilities and aptitudes meant the difference between life and death. Despite being born without any exceptional talents, Max, known as Moira Coates in her early years, was fortunate to find safety and comfort within a relatively secure settlement that stood as a haven amidst the chaos of war. Her parents, who were traders, often left for their trade missions, but Max never truly felt alone in the close-knit community.In this settlement, Max found solace in the presence of Alice, the innkeeper, and her husband Harold, the local mechanic. Fascinated by the intricacies of how things worked, Max's curiosity was nurtured by Harold, who recognized her potential and guided her in developing practical skills. The young girl's affinity for understanding mechanisms and machines earned her the moniker "Ace" after a daring display of disassembling a dangerous explosive device.Tragedy struck when Max was just eight years old. While she was honing her skills, news arrived of her parents' untimely demise in a crossfire during their travels. Unbeknownst to her at the time, the circumstances surrounding their deaths were far more complex than the simple tale of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This falsehood would haunt Max's understanding of her past and shape her future actions.Max continued to grow within the settlement, apprenticing under Harold and learning a variety of skills, both from him and through her own experimentation. As she neared adulthood, a rare blood disease claimed Harold's life due to chemical exposure from the early days of the war. With the weight of tragedy heavy upon her heart, Max knew she had to leave behind the place that held too many painful memories.Saying her goodbyes, she was met with a cryptic warning from Alice, who held a strong grip on her frail form, urging Max to never reveal her real name outside the settlement's walls. Without explanation, Moira was reborn as "Macs," a name that evolved into "Max" over time, symbolizing her transformation into a new identity, free from the specter of her past.As Max ventured toward the capital city in search of work that could contribute to the war effort, she took on various quiet jobs, maintaining a low profile and asking minimal questions. These endeavors connected her with Theron, an honorary member of the guard at the military barracks. With Theron's help, Max secured a position as an assistant to one of the military's secretive scientific projects, hoping to stay unnoticed while earning a living.Two years later, her skills finally caught the attention of those overseeing the project. Max was reassigned from menial tasks to a role where her expertise could prove invaluable in bringing the project to fruition. However, the truth behind the project was revealed to Max: it was a weapon of catastrophic potential. Worse still, Max realized that she possessed the knowledge necessary to complete it.Haunted by the losses the war had already inflicted, Max grappled with the moral dilemma of her situation. She had always avoided bloodshed, and the prospect of contributing to the very devastation she abhorred was a heavy burden to bear. She needed to keep this secret at all costs, but the weight of her knowledge threatened to crush her.Max's path was now one of secrecy, sacrifice, and moral dilemmas. She must navigate the treacherous waters of war, deception, and her own conscience, all while striving to protect her true identity and the values she holds dear. The decisions she makes will not only define her, but also shape the world around her in ways she can't yet fathom.

Mira Mendez's life took a sharp turn when she was pursuing her PhD in clinical psychology at Duquesne University. As a part of her practicum, Mira visited a client who had experienced a devastating loss. However, upon entering the client's home, an overwhelming sense of nausea overcame her. Seeking relief in the restroom, Mira's discomfort dissipated, but as she looked in the mirror, she was confronted with another face beside hers—an apparition. Mira's family had always believed in the presence of spirits, but this firsthand experience rattled her to the core, disrupting the session and leaving her deeply disturbed.The encounter with the paranormal haunted Mira, consuming her thoughts and diverting her attention from her studies. Her academic work waned as her fascination with the unexplained grew. Her quest for answers about her newfound abilities led her to delve into paranormal research, but her inquiries only led to more unanswered questions. Was her sensitivity to spirits real, or merely a myth? Frustrated by the lack of credible sources, Mira recognized that traditional research methods might not suffice to uncover the truth.Coincidentally, she stumbled upon a tear-away notice advertising a paranormal investigation team on campus. Despite her skepticism, she dialed the provided number and was greeted by a voice that merely gave her an address and instructed her to bring a flashlight. Armed with what online forums hailed as the "best ghost hunting flashlight," Mira embarked on a journey into the unknown, guided by nothing more than a vague sense of curiosity and determination.Arriving at the address, Mira was met with uncertainty. The setting seemed far from a professional operation, with no visible signs of any organized venture. Her initial instinct was to turn back, but curiosity and a sense of adventure drove her forward. A shaggy-haired young man appeared from around the corner of a parked truck, exuding an eager excitement that hinted at his inexperience. Once inside, she met two more individuals who were to accompany her on their first paranormal investigation—none of them were the mysterious man she had spoken to on the phone.Their first investigation was a chaotic affair. They were dispatched to a small house on a private street, and upon entering, an indescribable shift in the atmosphere became palpable. A weight seemed to press down on them, urging them to leave. This was a different sensation from her previous encounter, sending Mira's nerves into overdrive. Her flashlight provided only limited illumination, the TV turned on inexplicably, and the air turned frigid as she entered the nursery.Despite the unnerving terror that gripped them all, Mira couldn't shake the connection she felt to this supernatural world. Her initial trepidation evolved into a compelling fascination. She began taking on more investigations for the company, finding herself drawn to the inexplicable and the eerie. She also returned to her academic pursuits, but shifted her focus toward grief counseling, hoping to recreate the sensation she experienced during her initial paranormal encounter.Mira's journey transformed from the halls of academia to the shadowy corners of the supernatural. She sought to bridge the gap between her scientific background and the enigmatic world of the paranormal, driven by a desire to understand her abilities and provide solace to those affected by the unknown. With each investigation, she delved deeper into the mysteries of the beyond, intertwining her personal quest for answers with her evolving career.

NOTE: the below story is based on the main lore of the warrior of light's adventure spanning from the very beginning through endwalker. if you're not familiar with the lore, ( there is A LOT ), i'm happy to get into the important parts but if you're interested in an actual timeline, this one is pretty concise for most of the story with this follow-up video covering the endwalker expansion.
Azem, an illustrious member of the Convocation of Fourteen, resided at the heart of a bygone era when magics of immense potency swayed the course of existence. This assembly of gifted mages bore the weighty mantle of summoning the primal Zodiark, a well-intentioned endeavor aimed at saving the realm of Amaurot from the clutches of doom. Yet, their noble pursuit yielded unintended ramifications, and the once-united Convocation found themselves adrift in turmoil.It was within this tumultuous epoch that Azem's voice emerged, resonating with an alternative path to salvation. Proposing the summoning of Hydaelyn, the goddess of light, Azem sought to strike a harmonious equilibrium between the radiant and the obscure. Their vision, alas, faced resistance, leaving the Convocation fractured and ravaged by internal strife, as well as the unrestrained release of cataclysmic sorcery.Spanning the temporal chasm, narayu akari—the Warrior of Light—emerges as the called upon champion within Eorzea's present tapestry. Guided by her compassionate spirit, and without recollection of her former life, Nara sought to alleviate suffering, using her aetheric gifts to mend wounds and hearts. Her tenure as a healer saw her tending to sailors returning to the maritime hub of limsa lominsa from treacherous journeys and comforting those facing life's trials. Yet, amidst her devotion to the healing arts, a whisper of another path called to her—a melody that danced on the wind, beckoning her to the song of the bard.With bow in hand and a heart open to inspiration, she embarked on her new journey, not yet knowing what adventures may lie ahead. As her bardic talents flourished, so too did her connection to the Echo—a mysterious gift that allowed her to glimpse fragments of the past, of stories woven into the aether. It was through this ethereal link that Nara felt a resonance with the Warrior of Light, a legendary figure spoken of in whispers across Eorzea, a survivor of the Calamity from years before.With her heart as her compass, Nara embarked upon a journey that led her across Eorzea's expanse. Her path intertwined with the mysteries granted to her by the mothercrystal, as well as the dance between light and shadwo that shaped the world's destiny. Alongside fellow adventurers, she confronted primals, unearthed ancient secrets, and faced adversaries of many kinds.Through trials and triumphs, Nara's tale evolved into one of harmony amidst discord. From Limsa Lominsa's shors, she had ventured forth across the different nations of Eorzea and even found herself visiting reflections of her own world—and reflections of the warrior of light, accepting also the mantle of warrior of darkness.Empowered by the Echo, this enigmatic began unearthing recollections intertwined with Azem's narrative. This ethereal connection marks the Warrior of Light as a vessel bearing the essence of Azem's spirit, a fragment of an ancient soul reborn anew.Such an association transforms the Warrior of Light's identity into a radiant gem of profound significance. With the Echo's embrace, they transcend the barriers of time, delving into memories to fathom the Convocation's past decisions and the trials borne by the ancient civilization of Amaurot. Thus, a symphony of history and destiny resonates, melding with the Warrior of Light's purpose and the relentless pursuit of equilibrium in a world shrouded in the struggle of light and shadow.

In a realm where supernatural forces and mystical beings held sway, a tale unfolded that intertwined love, power, and sacrifice. Sombra, once known as a formidable witch of unparalleled strength, was inextricably linked to Bae Suyeong, a Nephilim born of the union between a human and the fallen angel Asmodeus. Their bond was forged through shared experiences, unbreakable trust, and a love that transcended time itself.Long before Sombra became a raven, she and Suyeong were inseparable. Their connection was not just one of camaraderie, but of deep affection and passionate love. Sombra's magical prowess was legendary, causing ripples of awe and fear among the covens that spanned the land. Her powers, however, became a double-edged sword; they attracted the attention of covetous covens that feared the unchecked strength she possessed.The covens, fearing the imbalance of power that Sombra represented, united in their decision to neutralize her. In a brutal act of betrayal, they ambushed her, employing forbidden rituals and potent spells that shattered her body, mind, and spirit. But death was not to be her fate. Instead, as the dark energies swirled around her, she was transformed into an ebony-feathered raven.In her new form, Sombra was stripped of her human identity, her power, and her voice. She was condemned to exist as a shadowy observer, forever cursed to bear witness to the world from the skies. However, as fate would have it, her connection with Suyeong remained unbroken. His love for her, though unable to restore her former self, led him to an incredible decision. He shared a portion of his own Nephilim power with her, an act that both prolonged her life and allowed her to communicate with him through subtle signs and telepathic whispers.United by this newly established connection, Sombra and Suyeong embarked on a quest to find a cure for her curse. Guided by ancient prophecies, their journey took them across mystical landscapes, through treacherous terrains, and into the depths of forgotten realms. Along the way, they encountered mythical creatures, enigmatic sages, and riddles that held the keys to breaking the curse.As the years passed, Sombra's avian form became a symbol of hope and defiance against the covens who had wronged her. Her unwavering determination to seek vengeance for the life stolen from her kept her spirit burning bright, even in the darkest of times. With Suyeong's power coursing through her veins, she learned to manipulate shadows and illusions, further enhancing her abilities and preparing herself for the inevitable confrontation with the covens.Their quest eventually led them to a hidden sanctuary of ancient magic, where they uncovered a long-forgotten ritual that held the potential to undo the curse. However, the ritual came at a great cost, demanding a sacrifice that would test the limits of Suyeong's love and Sombra's conviction. In a heart-wrenching decision, Sombra chose to release the curse, freeing herself from the raven form but leaving behind the power granted to her by Suyeong, and with it the longer lifespan.With the curse broken, and with her now mortal life feeling like a ticking timebomb hanging overhead, Sombra and Suyeong found themselves facing the covens once more, armed with renewed determination and augmented power. Their confrontation was epic, a clash of magic and will that shook the very foundations of their world. As the battle raged on, Sombra's years of observing from the shadows granted her unparalleled insight into her foes' vulnerabilities. With a final, devastating surge of magic, she unleashed her vengeance, dismantling the covens that had conspired against her.In the aftermath of their triumph, Sombra and Suyeong stood side by side, the echoes of their journey etched in the lines of their faces and the bond that united their souls.

Despite their seemingly charmed life, a profound emptiness lingered—the absence of the child they longed for, a child who could carry their heritage.After failed attempts at conceiving, the Parks embarked on an adoption journey, aiming to embrace their Korean heritage while expanding their family. The process was more arduous than they anticipated, involving numerous trips to South Korea, a lot of money, and even more disappointment.Fate eventually led them to Kang Jaewoo, however—a toddler whose parents had tragically perished, leaving him to navigate life within the system. A mere smile from the young boy was enough to forge an unbreakable connection between them.Kang Jaewoo's identity shifted as he became Pluto Park, a name symbolizing transformation and rebirth. Raised amidst the glitz of New York's social scene, he often found himself more connected to the family's staff than his parents, whose bustling lives made it challenging to fully engage with him. A seismic revelation emerged when he discovered his adoption—previously hidden in an attempt by his parents to preserve an illusion of familial perfection. This revelation sowed seeds of doubt and further estrangement.Determined to assert his independence, Pluto moved into his own Upper East Side apartment at the tender age of 17, signifying a declaration of autonomy. His undeniable charm and infectious smile, trademark traits since his adoption, soon attracted the attention of brands and companies eager to associate with his image. From his Instagram account, Pluto wielded his influence, turning his charisma into a lucrative asset. He walked the tightrope between enormous trust funds, celebrity status, and the reality of shallow friendships.As he attended Columbia University, majoring in visual and performing arts as a deliberate act of defiance against his parents' wishes, Pluto continued to navigate the dualities of his life. His parents' insistence on public appearances for the sake of maintaining the family facade contrasted with his relentless pursuit of authenticity. The university often felt like an afterthought compared to his burgeoning career, and he grappled with the true purpose of his education.In the labyrinth of his existence, Pluto questioned his relationships, the worth of his success, and the intricacies of his identity. As he strode forward on his journey, Pluto Park sought to reconcile the contrasting worlds that had shaped him, and find the genuine connections that had eluded him for so long. His path, while strewn with glitz and glamour, was defined by an enduring search for meaning and belonging in a world that celebrated surface appearances.

Born in the bustling city of Waterdeep, Rosalind's life began with an unusual twist. Her parents, a human mother renowned as a bard with enchanting musical abilities, and a father who operated as an apothecary with questionable dealings, were taken by surprise when both she and her twin brother were born with horns, visibly displaying their infernal heritage. The dormant bloodline had awakened, and the twins' birth marked a turning point for the family.Though their parents were initially accepting of the pregnancy, their selfishness and fear of societal judgment led them to abandon their infernal children at separate orphanages, hoping to distance themselves from what they saw as a blemish on their reputation. This heartless act marked the beginning of Rosalind's journey into a world that was unforgiving to those who were different.Growing up in Waterdeep was tough for Rosalind. The city's residents were often prejudiced against tieflings, and she faced discrimination and isolation from a young age. As she entered her teenage years, Rosalind made the decision to leave the city behind, yearning for a life away from the judgmental eyes and bustling streets. She managed to secure a position on a fishing expedition off the Sword Coast, working alongside a crew of sailors employed by the Seven Suns company.To ensure her safety and acceptance among the crew, Rosalind adopted a guise that concealed her true identity. She cut her hair short, donned baggy work clothes, and went by a different name, hiding her gender as well as her tiefling heritage. Her talents and hard work earned her a place among the sailors, and her horn filing became a routine, a practice she had adopted to fit in since her childhood.One fateful day, however, Rosalind's life took an unexpected turn. A storm that seemed like any other suddenly grew fierce and dangerous. During her valiant efforts to secure the ship, she was struck by a massive wave and thrown overboard, facing the terrifying prospect of drowning in the churning sea. In that moment of desperation, she prayed for salvation, and her plea was answered by a mysterious entity.This entity claimed to have a longstanding pact with one of Rosalind's ancestors, offering her a chance at life in exchange for her service. With her life hanging in the balance, Rosalind made a pivotal decision: she accepted the pact, plunging herself into an unknown world of power, magic, and darkness. She knew little about her family's history or the details of the pact, but faced with the choice of life or death, she embraced the enigmatic entity's offer.As the fiend's influence manifested in Rosalind's life, she began to wield newfound warlock powers, marking a turning point in her journey. Tragically, the very storm that thrust her into this mystical pact also claimed the lives of her crewmates. Survivor's guilt weighed heavily on Rosalind's heart, as she wrestled with the knowledge that her new abilities had come at the cost of her friends' lives.Still grappling with her new powers, her infernal heritage, and the weight of her past, Rosalind embarks upon a new journey that promises a wealth of riches and adventure ( and perhaps a distraction from her guilty conscience ). Her dark pact has opened up a realm of possibilities and challenges, driving her to uncover the secrets of her ancestry, the nature of her benefactor, and her place in the world.

Born in Romania, Serghei Petran was the eldest child of Vivianna and Adrian Petran, who imparted values of responsibility and loyalty through contrasting methods. Adrian used force, while Vivianna brought compassion, serving as a counterbalance that young Serghei struggled to comprehend.As the truth about his family's ties to the Romanian mob came to light during his childhood, Serghei found himself ensnared in a world of conflict between rival mob factions. The Petran family was embroiled in a dangerous feud with the Italian mob, casting a long shadow over their lives. While Serghei's younger brother, Nikolas, was drawn to the allure of this dark world, Serghei yearned to escape its clutches.In his teenage years, Serghei made the bold decision to leave Romania and forge a new identity as William Peterson in the United States. He aimed to create a life that erased any trace of his past, focusing on education and building a future free from the haunting shadows of his homeland. He pursued a degree in international studies and, later, entered the field of law enforcement through a recommendation that led him to the FBI's prestigious Quantico training program.Serghei excelled in his training, showcasing his skills as a top-tier sniper and a SWAT agent. However, his true sense of belonging wasn't found until he transitioned to the Criminal Investigations Division. There, he felt a strong connection to his work, driven by a desire to bring justice to those affected by crime.Yet, the past has a way of resurfacing when least expected. Nikolas, drawn by the allure of the mob life, eventually followed his brother to the United States after the death of their parents. Serghei's pursuit of justice brought him face-to-face with Nikolas once again, uncovering a twisted web of drug trafficking that led back to his brother's involvement as the head of the Romanian mob in California.In a stunning turn of events, Serghei found himself taking on an unexpected role: the second-in-command to his brother's criminal enterprise. The conflict between his desire for justice and the family bonds that had been strained over the years pushed him into a reluctant alliance with Nikolas. Some might interpret this as a capitulation to his bloodline, while others might view it as a way for Serghei to protect his brother, even if in an unconventional manner.Serghei navigates a world where morality isn't always black and white, and where loyalty to blood can clash with the pursuit of justice. As he steps into his role alongside his brother, Serghei must confront his own motivations, strengths, and weaknesses while striving to find a semblance of balance in a world marked by complexity and conflicting loyalties.

Yet, from a young age, she rejected the path of tradition, choosing a life of trickery and daring instead.Despite her noble birthright, X'ilora's heart resonated with the allure of the shadows rather than the spotlight. The thrill of danger and the excitement of thievery captivated her more than the obligations of diplomacy. She found camaraderie among rogues and ruffians in the undercity, honing her skills of trickery and deception to perfection. What began as simple tasks evolved into ambitious heists, leading her crew to infamy as elusive and cunning thieves, terrorizing the elven nobility.However, the inevitable clash between her dual lives became apparent.

Yun Jaewon was a lucky kid, with a loving family, and the world at his feet.At the tender age of five, his parents, Lee and Jisoo Jaewon, embarked on a journey that unbeknownst to their children, would change their lives forever - transplanting their roots from one city to another... a sanctuary, if you will.The shift at such a young age posed both a challenge and an opportunity for the young Jay. Customs intermingled in his consciousness, forging a unique alloy of identities.Despite the promises implied by a place called sanctuary, his parents struggled to keep themselves afloat and to support their family. A tempest of financial adversities led Jay's elder brother, Joon, into the realm of street gangs. Fueled by a desire to shield his family from their seemingly inevitable failure, Jay embarked on a journey unforeseen, stepping across the threshold of a world both dark and dazzling.Within the shadowed niches of this newfound reality, Jay's innate charisma assumed the role of a luminary. Amidst tense negotiations and looming adversities, he wielded humor as a sword, piercing the tension and inviting light to cast its benevolent glow. A laugh, a jest, or a whimsical tale – these were the brushstrokes he used to paint rainbows across the stormy skies of his life. As the years unfurled their secrets, Jay became an expert in everything unique that marked the different cities of their world, fluent in trade, diplomacy, and conflict.Years flowed as rivers do, and Jay's ascent within the ranks of what he'd once believed to be nothing more than a street gang was as meteoric as it was bewildering. By the time he'd found himself sitting at the top of this hierarchy, it seemed a place he was always meant to be.Behind the façade of an unassuming mob boss lay an enigmatic figure, one who possessed the serendipitous ability to navigate through labyrinthine power struggles with a grin and a quip. He was both a puppeteer of strategies and a court jester of the underworld.Yet, beneath the veil of levity lay a heart interwoven with complexities. Jay's allegiance to family and friends ran as deep as the roots of an ancient oak, often guiding him to deviate from the well-trodden path. His forays into philanthropy, the establishment of community programs, and acts of benevolence unveiled a facet of his character that danced in the sunlight while his deeds cast shadows under the night's moon.The passage of time bore stories of loyalty and betrayal, of laughter and gravitas. As he gazed into the pool of reflection, he realized that the symphony of his life was orchestrated by a conductor unafraid of juxtaposing discordant notes with harmonious chords.Now, at the age of 35, Jay stands at a crossroads, a figure ensconced in layers of complexity. From the immigrant youth who once tread upon unfamiliar shores to the mob boss who commands respect through levity – in him, the enigma of laughter and leadership coalesce, painting a portrait of a life lived unapologetically – a masterpiece composed of contrasts, colors, and unexpected crescendos.
