Synopsis

Humans die three times, and it falls upon the Deathgods to collect what is rightfully theirs—the soul, the body, and the mind. But what happens when each god meets their inevitable equals, who dare to challenge and allure them? A serial heartbreaker for Kindred, the Deathgod of the Soul. A wounded beauty for Mordekaiser, the Deathgod of the Body. And a cunning criminal for Aurelius, the Deathgod of the Mind. Drawn to the humans, the gods succumb to the temptation of their existence. As they enchant and manipulate, driven by curiosity and a thirst for entertainment, their mortal counterparts turn into their cherished secrets, an irresistible part of the deities' time on Earth. Until one day, when all three mortals vanish. No soul, no body, no mind to reap. Gone.

Characters

Kindred, the Deathgod of the Soul

Protective and pure, the eldest among the Deathly Triad, Kindred, is the collector of souls. Her souls, each a unique orb of individuality, are returned to her in the grasp of her familiar wolves. Safeguarded in her realm by her loyal pack, each soul's fate ready to face judgment—another chance or eternal seclusion in the abyss. One with the universe, Kindred possesses a celestial ring, a physical manifestation of the cosmos that is forever in her possession. Her wolves, faithful companions, form a sacred fur coat around her form, a constant presence in her solemn duty.

Siblings - Mordekaiser, Aurelius Order - Eldest Alias - Kin, Wolfgang, Wolfie, Luna, Moonshine, Starlight, Starshine, Light, Soul Eater Familiar - Wolf Weakness - Hope

Mordekaiser, the Deathgod of the Body

Rebellious and ruthless, the middle among the Deathly Triad, is the collector of bodies. The empty vessels of mortals past are swallowed whole by his monsters spawned from mythical dragons and demonic shadows. With full bellies, the phantom messengers pass through reflective portals, gently delivering and ensnaring the bodies in a mirrored realm. Lingering in the world of mortals, Mordekaiser shifts his appearance from one warm body to the next, but his eyes always remain an homage to fresh blood. Cloaked in black with a mischievous shadow and a golden crow tailing his every move.

Aurelius, the Deathgod of the Mind

Callous and calculated, the youngest among the Deathly Triad, Aurelius, is the collector of minds. Within the labyrinthine corridors of consciousness, memories and emotions intertwine, their essence taking the form of a gilded brain and carried away by his loyal crows of gold. A scale of judgment weighs the mind, measuring the gap between what was and what could have been, based on mortal choices made. Draped in a veil of liquid gold from head to toe, Aurelius shields himself against the clinging thoughts. In his wake, he leaves behind vanishing trails of golden feathers, each one a spark that ignites new ideas and revelations.

too many ideas, not enough time.

I have over fifty-plus book ideas spanning various genres, and 5% of a story. I'll never have enough time to follow through with all my ideas. From the plot details to character development, there simply won't be enough time. I don't want to die with my ideas. (Not that I'm dying right now, I'm just saying. I don't want to leave my ideas behind.) I want my characters to live, my worlds to expand, my animals to thrive. I want to set my thoughts free so they can breathe and exist. And that's exactly what I'm going to do.

Welcome to my writing/idea blog!
