Do you have art or moodboards yet of the main characters? 👀

yes but there's only like 7 pictures in each board rn so also no

[peachiiegames]

Can you give us more information about the ROs? I still haven't decided which one I will choose, they all look interesting

of course! this became rambly sorry 🙏

Lucian! Sometimes goes by Luci, loudmouth, sunshine, etc. They're around 21-22 a little older than mc. They're an orphan who was found after the giant people killing storm that happened in Ogden's Rise twenty years ago and they grew up in the temple orphanage.

Lucian Fun Facts !

- Loves to dance and their childhood dream was to be a traveling musician ( can't play music to save their life )

- Loves cats !

- Never stops seeing mc as their best friend no matter how mc feels at the start of the game

- Doesn't see any true worth in themselves !

Huntress. Absolutely no one alive knows her real name and she'd prefer to keep it that way. She's 23, only likes children and animals, and could probably live the rest of her life happily in the woods. She's also one of Eletherin's chosen meaning she can summon or channel the spirit of any beast she's killed.

Huntress Fun Facts !

- Her parents were killed by a direbeast, and she managed to stab and kill the beast while it was feasting on her parents. That's how she got her blessing.

- Can't cook to save her life. Survives off of boiled or roasted roots or meat, unseasoned.

- Has a very nice singing voice and threatens to kill anyone who hears her sing

- You will not find her if she doesn't want to be found

Elwyn! Elwyn is 25 and is considered a weaving prodigy, weaving their first spell together when they were only five years old! They're smart and spoiled, and have been doted on their entire life. Their mother is one of the high magisters of The Loom and their dad is a high ranking city noble, so they get to spend all their time reading and flirting and gaining knowledge like nobody's business.

Elwyn Fun Facts!

- Even though they have a large interest in learning they still have never left the city, cause why would they?

- They have seven older siblings and yes they are babied by everyone

- They make people duel to take them on a date and then duels the person who wins for funsies

- Is way more chaotic than people assume

Caryden! Caryden is [ redacted ] years old and was raised [ redacted ] He has sad wet also kinda aggressive alley cat energy and sees himself as a living weapon. His entire body is covered in scarves and glyphs and he generally has a very unsettling vibe.

Caryden Fun (?) Facts!

- No im serious he does not consider himself an actual person

- Likes tea..what do you mean tea is not supposed to be thick and black and leave a burning in your chest?

- Prays every night...what do you mean he prays to a forgotten god?

- Scared of heights

hi! your WIP sounds very interesting. the world building sounds so intriguing and I’m def gonna give it a go—I just wanted to ask why the MC is genderfluid? is there a in game reason as to why? i only play as a woman and I prefer to model my MCs after my own gender identity and I wondered what the design and thought process behind the main character is. Hope this doesn’t come across as nit picky or mean!

hi love! don't worry this doesn't sound mean at all

the only canon character that's genderfluid is Elwyn but if there's a typo somewhere that says mc is genderfluid please let me know. i looked but i couldn't find anything 😅

[peachiiegames]

Sorry i just had a question after reading the prologue. Does it end here?

yes the prologue ends there, the next bit will be the beginning of ch. 1

i hope the prologue was interesting !

[peachiiegames]

to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die

from John Keats’s love letter to Fanny Brawne Tristan and Isolt (Death), Rogelio de Egusquiza The Reconciliation of the Montagues and Capulets over the Dead Bodies of Romeo and Juliet, Frederick Leighton Death of Francesca de Rimini and Paolo Malatesta, Alexandre Cabanel

[peachiiegames]

Alright guys the prologue is up! im plotting out Ch 1 now, and will most likely start writing next week 🫡

Play Here

What is the difference between each species? (High Elf / Wood Elf / half Elf etc...)

Okay this is a little rambly ( maybe im on mobile like always ) so answer down below ✨

Elves tend to be taller and more willowy and find it easier to access magic and weave spells compared to other races. The only major difference between High Elves and Wood Elves is culture and location. High Elves live on the coast primarily in the city of Solun, which is also where The Loom is. Wood Elves live in communities scattered about Wyn's Haven the forest that dominates this side of Ahnwyn.

Dwarves tend to be shorter and stockier, and tend to lean more towards glyph magic than weaving spells together. They tend to specialize in blacksmithing and weaponry, and place a high emphasis on the quality of everything they do. Dwarves have their own kingdoms all throughout Ahnwyn 's underground and keep various creatures such as Giant Spiders and Rock Wraiths at bay. Dwarves were also the first Berserkers.

Humans in my stories have come about from the very scientific way of Elves and Dwarves... copulating over many many many years. Humans in general tend to be a bit shorter than elves but taller than Dwarves, and their body type ranges between the two. The humans in Ogden's Rise have much larger Dwarven ancestry than most, which is why the town has such a high rate of blacksmiths, mercenaries, and Berserkers.

Half-elves much like humans came from humans and elves having children, and then those children having children with each other. Half-elves like humans are scattered about, but there's a large Half-elf population in Solun. Half-elves also have an easier time accessing magic.

Thinking about posting the prologue. It's already done and coded I just didn't like how the ui looked but if you guys don't care about that I can have it up tonight ✨

[peachiiegames]

what do we get by choosing a background other than know npc?

skills! each background will help decide some of mc's starting skills and also impact knowledge of the world around them. for example, mercenary mc's will have the most combat knowledge but weaver mc's will have the most book / history knowledge.

[peachiiegames]

~ Welcome to Ahnwyn, where Gods walk amongst men ~

A stone city stands strongly in the mountains, the cold blue eyes of the Mountain Father watching over it. A giggle alights through the woods, purple feathers gracing the ground as Wyn runs through. And on the coast, a figure of fire and judgement stands watching...and waiting.

This is your home, but your home is sick. For the past twenty years a rot has been festering, mutating and changing the land. And after your father gets corrupted, it's up to you to save him, and maybe the world as well.

THIS IS YOUR STORY

Customize your mc. play as a : high elf, wood elf, dwarf, human, or half-elf; each race which their own high fantasy features to choose from. Choose your pronouns and your sexuality. Gay or straight, trans or cis, everyone is accepted in Ahnwyn.

Choose your training background: A student at The Loom - a school for Weavers, A mercenary apprentice - learning how to be a Berserker, A trainee healer at Solara's Temple, or maybe you're a Finder - combing the woods for those lost within.

Fall in love - or don't, friendships matter just as much if not more in Ahnwyn. Everyone has their own goals, and their own feelings about the actions your mc takes.

Save your father : His life is in your hands

[ PROLOGUE ] - Added June 22, 2025

FEATURING

The Warden Aka Stonewall : A beast of a man who wields a great axe almost as large as he is. The Warden, Stonewall, the man who protects the city of Ogden's Rise, your father.

° You stare up at the giant of a man, tall and broad like a god's tree. Thick bands of brown cover his tiger's eye skin and red stained fingertips rest heavily on your shoulder. Kind chestnut eyes rest under a brow that's heavy even when he's amused. And the ginger beard covering his chin moves as he smiles.

Torren, the Priest : Gentle eyes and hands rest upon a body whose soul is filled with spite and rage. Torren, priest of Solara, Healer, a man sweet to his loved ones and cold to everyone else, your father.

° A laugh like bells fills the room, Torren's hand reaching up to cover his mouth in an attempt to stop himself. Lavender eyes full of mirth open back up to stare at you, his Indigo skin shining under the sunlight. He reaches up, tucking a strand of Lavender hair behind his pointed ear, still laughing lightly.

Lucian, the happy finder : A loud laugh and bright eyes track your every move. Lucian, finder of people, lover of explosives, your best friend. [ mc canonically was best friends with Lucian growing up ]

° Loud is the only word to describe Lucian. Loud laughter rings through the courtyard as they grab the old woman's hands, their tawny skin standing striking against her ice blue. They jauntily spin her around in a circle, their honey blonde curls repeatedly falling into their green and blue eyes.

Huntress, the woman in the woods : Cold eyes meet your gaze, a notched arrow pointing at something rustling behind you. Huntress, keeper of the woods, Eletherin's chosen, your future partner [ mercenary or finder mc's will already know Huntress ]

° You stay out of her way. Jet Black brows furrowed as she walks across the clearing, hazel eyes scanning for something you can't see. She turns around suddenly, her olive hands resting on her hips as she regards you intently, permanent frown etched onto her face.

Elwyn, the information dealer : A smugly charismatic smile rests upon their face, the crowd of admirers swooning as they wave. Elwyn, the favored son, weaver prodigy, your future partner [ weaver mc's will already know Elwyn ]

° They chuckle, white eyes twinkling mischievously as you two stare at the latest suitor. You watch as they lean forward, shirt carefully falling to the side revealing an ice blue shoulder and chest to the air, white nails tap, tap, tapping on the table. The long white strands of their hair pool around them, and like usual, the elf looks almost otherworldly.

Caryden, the newcomer : Scarred hands grip the hilt of a bloodied sword, tattered cloak falling off their frame. Caryden, the escapee, the newcomer, the one who'll change everything.

° You force yourself to look down at the stranger, a multitude a white scars etching across his obsidian skin. He shifts, intense violet eyes locking onto you, and you know at once this man is dangerous. Even with the sickly sheen to his face, blue and black hair strands plastered to his forehead, his body trying to fight off whatever infection it has.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

This is an 18+ story. There will be themes & mentions of : body horror, genre typical violence, blood..so much blood, animal death, death in general, the inherent violence of change, and nsfw themes. Tags will be updated as needed.

Elwyn is canonically genderfluid, and their pronouns will change throughout the story as well as how they present physically. If this is not your cup of tea, this may not be the story for you.

This is my first interaction fiction story + I have a full time job ( i work 11 hours a day ) + i will be a full time student again starting August. That is to say physical updates may be slow going but this blog will remain as active as the readers are.

Yes, nsfw questions are allowed, no cumflation will /not/ be happening. Thank you and enjoy.

[peachiiegames]

Thank you anon for your helpful point out about the country name ! The new name is officially Ahnwyn - Aka the Home of Wyn ✨

[peachiiegames]

Currently weaving together a magic system

- Magic users in Ahnwyn are called weavers, weaving together spells

- Magic is always visible, either through glyphs or or magic threads

- Some people get glyphs tattooed on their skin to help amplify their magic

We also have Blessings, a type of magic only available to those blessed by a God. For example those blessed by Solara are able to control and wield the pure might and power of flame, setting their enemies ablaze in pure fiery destruction.

There are also whispers of a secret and darker kind of magic, one that steals and uses the life force of others. A magic that corrupts...and kills

[peachiiegames]

Your eyes easily find the elf lounging against the bannister, an almost bored look resting on their cat-like face. They raise a hand, a shimmering cup of gold liquid appearing almost immediately into it. Their magic, or someone else’s? They grin, manicured nails tap, tap, tapping against the glass they hold in their hand.

“I know i'm pretty, but you really don't have to stare so hard.”

They shift towards you then, sheer shirt slipping down their shoulder exposing the blue skin underneath. White eyes bore into yours as they slink towards you, the white stands of their hair softly framing their face.

They stop before you, close enough you can smell the cloying scent of their perfume, heady enough to almost make you feel dizzy.

“So my friend,” they grin, holding the cup out to you, “Have you come to make a deal?”

[peachiiegames]

The fact that people don't think friendship is enough to justify characters doing insane acts of love for each other baffles me. Like have you never loved your friend so so much you want to live in their ribcage. Have you never been really weird about a friend. Have you never wanted to bite your friends parents or shove them down a staircase. Have you never wanted to be buried in the same grave as a friend. Have u never. How do u people live like this.
