Zombie Kombi

An interactive story by @josru

DEMO TBA | CHARACTERS

The cities are barren.

Not a soul has been seen navigating North America's metropolitan landscapes in years.

The undead are considered soulless, anyways.

In the late 2040s, zombies have overtaken the greater part of North America. You live on the outskirts of San Francisco, in an old, beat-up, secondhand Volkswagen Minibus. Also known as a Kombi (not sponsored).

You've been alone for as long as you can remember. Your elderly parent is long gone, and you have yet to meet another person, let alone one you're sure can be your ally.

Play as male, female or NB/GNC.

Choose your hunting level. Pick between amateur, alright, and advanced.

Romance one of four potential options (or keep them as friends, adversaries, or enemies, depending on your choices)

Choose your path:

Discover what happened to the world, causing it to be filled with the undead, by traversing to the city.

Find out about the first owner of your Kombi. (#??? videos found so far.)

Navigate conspiracies about a local settlement that seems too friendly.

Howard "How" Ngam

A mid-thirties, quiet, skeptical Thai-American man, How Ngam hates everyone and everything that's happened to him. He's the previous (read: not the first) owner of the Kombi- imagine his surprise when he stumbles upon you, living in a place he was sure he left locked and empty, meant to be his personal solitude.

He isn't the easiest to talk to, but his bristly attitude has it's purpose in this world. He's discovered a lot about the city, and How could take you there, but he's protective of those he cares about, which might include you.

Appearance: Tan-olive skin, deep-set eyes with wrinkles and dark circles, wide nose, prominent lips, shaggy, ear-length black hair, brown eyes, and stubble/mustache going on. About 5'8", fairly lean, some muscle. He's usually wearing a hand-me down, dark green jacket, and a copper-toned beanie. Heavy worker boots. Non-descript pants and shirt.

Dylan Chase

A late twenties, Half-Irish woman, Dylan is always searching for a greater purpose. She's scared, but determined to find herself in the midst of the apocalypse. You could worry that she's read too many self-help books, but she knows herself. Even if she can be a bit harsh about it.

Dylan wants more than anything to be caring, to prove to others that she's not a bad person. She lives in a well furnished settlement, where lack of resources seems to never be an issue. The guilt of being there, when everyone else is suffering, eats at her, but you could soothe her feelings, if you wish.

Appearance: Pale, warm toned, freckly-orange skin, hooked nose, sharply defined, thinner lips, deep red long hair past her shoulders, (basically think of a tomato), green wide eyes. About 5'6", very skinny, long runner legs with muscular calves. Despite the cold of San Francisco, Dylan runs hot and wears jean shorts, cropped shirts, or athleisure like hoodies and leggings.

Gloor

He's a zombie. Gloor's skin is a pallid green-blue, with splotches of beige that reminds you he was human at one point. There are chunks of skin and flesh missing from his body, but he persists on, in the way the undead always do.

He can barely hold a fully fledged sentence with you, but you can tell he doesn't mean any harm. There's something lifelike in his eyes as he stares with you, a strong purpose held in his pupils, untouched by the typical fog that zombies carry. It's even more obvious in the way he seems to still have fine motor skills: he's capable of writing a few letters for you, if you want him to.

Appearance: Green-blue skin, brownish-grey hair that's mostly all fallen out, brown eyes. No nose, lips receding. 6'2", surprisingly wide in the middle due to his ribcage. He's wearing an old, dilapidated suit, and a wrinkly dress shirt, and torn up pants.

Alia Jacobs

Named after Saint Alia of the Knife, Alia is a mid-thirties, black woman that absolutely adores pop culture and trivia. She's a massive, optimistic nerd, and maybe one that's a bit obsolete in this current time- nobody really cares to get into escapist fantasies the way she does. Either way, she's got a cabin filled with comics, old video games, and DVDs. You wonder where and how she's collected so much paraphernalia, and mainly why-  and she's willing to share that with you if you don't judge her.

Appearance: Deep cool toned skin, natural loose afro to about the end of her neck, brown eyes, slight smile lines, prominent lips, straight nose. 5'3", pear shaped, hourglass body. She wears billowy, silky tops, and well structured cargo pants. She wears a lot of jewelry like rings, bangles, and earrings.

okay, let's talk about hyrde!

hello all! so, hyrde! i've been working on it in private for a bit now, so i figure it's high time i actually introduce it!

Come forth and a hearty welcome, outcasts! Wanderers, heretics, disdained souls – nought loved by Aestelwic or it’s inhabitants, but hate does us no good. Within the walls of Aestelwic, peace comes as naturally as the air, lo, that kind breath! The outside, however, is home only to savages; monsters, beasts, and truths none are quite ready to face in all their bloodied beauty.

the basics

hyrde is a story about a small world expanded by its own history, its secrets becoming its undoing. the village of aestelwic was always made to be small, quiet and contained; tight-knit and iron-ruled. however, across the town, seeds of doubt are breaking soil. you can call hyrde a speculative horror; this is a simple historical world with traces of magic, and folk + body + psychological horror.

an important theme of this story is about the children of a society. when you have a society, you must raise the next generation of that society, or it won't continue. hyrde's children are raised thusly; obedient and kind-hearted. they don't question the world that raised them, for it's the only world they know.

but when there is a cycle of pain, secrets, and suffering, and the next generation is raised to follow that without question, the society will never change for the better. that idea is central to hyrde.

hyrde is separated into many stories about the youth of aestelwic whose paths intertwine when such a thing is called for. the amyrran saga, the wræcca saga, the fyr saga, the sarig saga, the dyre saga, the casere saga, the offrian saga, and the hælan saga. these parts are all interconnected within the whole story of hyrde.

the music

here is a playlist dedicated to hyrde if you want a musical feel for the story:

i am also considering making some of my own tracks relevant to certain characters or locations as well, will update when that occurs!

the progress

as for how much i've got done, a fairly good bit! hyrde is sitting strong with almost 15,000 words, but the massively purple prose does tend to make that number raise faster. the amyrran saga has the most done, about 4 chapters, and the debuts for the rest are being written!

i think that's all i have to say about hyrde! i'm very passionate about this one and really proud of how far it's gone already! with that, i bid you goodbye!

"folyn kadel ruathir faudaig taithaig kainbir."

bonus snippet!

Painted stones marked the place where the lies died. Their beautiful crime was etched into the earth, plainly written with the steel tongue of a shovel. An axe lay next to it, bathed in that most terrible thing. What a terrible bloody moon above them! From whence it came? It was not of the earth below, and it was not at home in the sky above. There was no happy place for a moon like that, for it was merely a stone, void of purpose. Vapid and nothing. It would leave such a perilous mark on those children, so young and impressionable. Their impressions lay in what was beneath them, crawling at their feet.

   A Character Introduction

“Can’t you get it? This is my one last chance to right everything wrong back to normal! I can finally be worth something for once in my life…”

✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦

✦⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆✦Information✦⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆✦

Name: Aerlyra Kcara Ghorne

Nicknames: Aer, Aery, and Lyra in some cases

Gender: Female

Pronouns: She/her

Orientation: Pansexual

Age: 29 years old

Birthdate: April 23rd

Birthplace: Haukrosen, Pytharios of Khri

Species: Human

Occupation: Fisherman & fish merchant

Education: Highly educated from the Queen’s Academy for Young Learners of Magic in Haukrosen, Pytharios of Khri

Current Residence: Korsk, Pytharios of Khri

✦⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆✦Personality✦⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆✦

Aerlyra Ghorne can be defined by her compassionate attitude yet nervous nature. She is very receptive to others viewpoints and ideas, speaking with them about various topics and learning new things. But, she is also well known as a push-over to those around her. Along with being quite the meek and unassuming type, she also tries to stay out of everyone’s way to focus on her own needs. This is shown as she keeps her head down and out of trouble in Korsk, her new home, for now. While she is quite the generous person to those who really need it, sometimes she can be too generous as an overcompensation which lends itself directly into her gullibility. As in, she trusts in people way too often, leading to her getting hurt and running away from her problems. Emotions, despite her not really wanting them to, basically control her actions.

Surely better things are ahead in her future. Being chosen by the Queen to accomplish a job only she can do has definitely resparked her desires to please and lead others. Yet still, she has those worry-wort thoughts in the back of her brain.

MBTI Type: INFP-T

Alignment: Neutral good

Likes: Learning new things, other people & their stories/lives, keeping away from conflicts, reading, journaling, puzzles, loud & bustling environments, being nice to others

Dislikes: Not being on time, not living up to her own high expectations, letting her nerves & emotions get to her, quiet & alone places, herself, taking charge of herself/things in her life & other’s, public speaking, fish 

Goals: Starting out, she just wants to survive to the next day. But, after she gets chosen by the Queen to kill the Bone-Binder, her entire mission, and worth, in life changes to solely just that as she wants to regain some semblance of a good reputation through that…

Hobbies: Trying out new braid techniques and hairstyles, reading, journaling, meditating, trying out new herbal teas from the market when she can fit it into her budget

THE FUNERAL PYRE. ∣ a sapphic/lesbian vampire novella ↳ The idea of touch leaves the vampire averse and yet she grasps at the woman’s shoulders as if she’s holding on for dear life, as if she’s been dangled over a never-ending edge and this woman is the sole, tangible object in her vicinity onto which she can dig her nails. She can feel the woman smile against her neck, feels her hold her tighter, and the vampire wants to cry.

GENRE: gothic horror, sapphic/lesbian literature POV: third person, present THEMES: vampirism illustrated as metaphor for desire, overcoming internalized homophobia (except the story takes place sometime in the 15-18th century), discussions of religion and religiosity.

EXCERPT:

It happens as she passes by the woman to get to the cellar for more carrots. For a moment, the vampire can't help but follow the curve of her neck, to notice—not for the first time—how beautiful she is, to outline the inviting slope of her shoulder. For a moment, it seems so easy to just lean in, to plant a kiss on soft skin. "Are you alright?" The woman asks. The knife is in her hand, the tomatoes half-diced. The vampire jumps three feet into the air for having been caught staring, face burning in shame. The realization of it all shoots through her like a sheet of ice, pale and cold, and her heart palpitates with excitement and self-hatred all the same. "I'm fine," she manages, and tells the woman that she'll be retiring to bed immediately. She does not need the woman's soup, nor does she want it. The woman's efforts to keep her from leaving are valiant as they are admirable: a hand grabbing at her bishop sleeves, a swift move to stand in front of her to survey her face, to search for emotion that she knows she won't find. The vampire dodges each attempt with expert precision and flees to her bedroom anyway. In the dark, she lays down with tears and bites her hand to keep the nausea at bay. Bile tastes a certain kind of bitter and she gags. With great effort, she sinks her teeth into her fist and pays no mind to the blood that pools beneath her head, the red that soaks into her pillows and sheets. She can wash them anyway; the blood has far been watered down by her tears. She notes with distaste how dirty desire feels. In the dark sanctuary of her room, she prays and prays for the feeling to go away. In the morning, she washes her sheets and acts like yesterday didn't happen at all, but in her throat, the bile remains.

🌸 𐙚₊˚⊹ PERSONALITY ⊹꒦₊˚ɞ🌷

Yara is driven by her fear.

She has grown up in an environment that hasn’t allowed for her to be in touch with other people, that has left her mostly on her own. She, like many others in Seras, has been force to grow up too early, her childhood dedicated to living and surviving instead of growing and learning. She has no real friends or companions, none except for her trusty pet raven Mavros.

This has stunted her in a way. She’s naive and doesn’t pick up well on social cues, or understand most things that kids her age like or are interested in. She trusts too easily despite her caution, and has little to no knowledge of the outside world, having been stuck inside the borders of her childhood home for so long. The only thing she has to protect her is this ever-growing fear. It’s the one thing that has left her safe, alive. She’s determined to hold onto it until the day she dies.

But despite all this, Yara truly is, at her core, a kind and friendly person. Although she does have walls up at the start, with some genuine acts of care, she is very easily won over. It doesn’t take her long to warm up to people, and from then on she will be an absolute nuisance. She loves to chatter away, taking about anything and everything, and even with her fear of the unknown, she still has many skills and positive traits to offer.

She is a girl who has been subjected to loss at a young age, yet who is just hoping, secretly, for someone to pull her out of this loop of lonely nothingness and be apart of something grand.

୧ ‧₊˚ 🍓 ⋅ ☆

Currently Yara is set to venture out of the oh-so familiar boundary of her home and follow Aster, a strange boy who has introduced himself as one of the Immortai, the selected few who make it out of Noroi attacks alive. Yara isn’t too sure about him, but any place that will keep her safe from the Noroi is a place she is willing to head towards.

Currently the duo are headed towards the Seventh Sector, Aster’s home. He promises that the leader there will have the answers that she seeks, and help her figure out the curse that the Noroi apparently bestowed upon her. Neither of them have been able to figure out what the curse is get, despite the haunting visions that stir her awake continuously.

Yara isn’t quite sure if she even is an Immortai after all. It almost feels like as if she is something entirely different altogether….

୧ ‧₊˚ 🍓 ⋅ ☆

Traits || Lonely, resourceful, independent, creative, loyal, shy, really talkative once you get to know her

Alignment || Lawful good

Likes || The outdoors, sweets, travelling, sunny weather, trying new things, exploring, food, doing her 70 million hobbies, animals, birds, meeting new people, mythology

Dislikes || Noroi, small and cramped spaces, being alone, the dark, nighttime

Hobbies || Reading, crocheting, gardening, sketching, baking, writing, journaling, cleaning, printmaking, poetry, cooking, and so many more (a girl’s gotta do something while locked away)

🌸 𐙚₊˚⊹ APPEARANCE ⊹꒦₊˚ɞ🌷

She looks like what you’d expect from a farmer girl. She has long, tangled honey-blonde hair she always pulls into four loose bubble braids. Her bangs are swept to the side, with thick strands framing her face. She has a round face shape and peachy skin, a faint dusting of freckles splashing across her cheeks. Her eyes are big and wide, a gentle mint-green that appears to be faintly blue while in the sunlight.

She has a very small, petite frame, which earns her the nickname of “pipsqueak” by Aster. Despite being quite short, she’s pretty curvy and on the chubbier side, with a pear-shaped figure, and wide hips.

Small scars, pale and faded, can be found along her hands and arms, though they’re barely noticeable anymore.

Height || 5’6”

Aesthetic || Yara has a sort of twee vibe to her. She loves long, flowy dresses, a mismatch of fabrics, and clothes that are easy to move in while still comfortable. She also can be seen wearing a lot of jewelry, mainly bead necklaces and bracelets that she has made herself.

🌸 𐙚₊˚⊹ ORIGINS ⊹꒦₊˚ɞ🌷

Yara comes from the fifth region inside Seras, Dara, which was known for its long, winding Rockies, stunning mountainscapes, and beautiful greenery. Now, due to the rise of Noroi and fall of civilization as humans had known it, the Rockies are dangerous and tumultuous terrain, the sparkling shades of green that had once covered the mountains now shades of unforgiving gray and black.

Yara’s family comes from a long line of lumberjacks and hunters. Despite the forests being corrupted by the onslaught of the apocalypse, the wood is still harvestable. In recent years, there has been an increase of fruits that have begun to grow without the help of chemicals and factories, allowing for the poorer citizens to taste fresh vegetables again. Their family had even begun their own little garden, something Yara and her siblings were ecstatic about.

୧ ‧₊˚ 🍓 ⋅ ☆

Yara had a fairly normal life as a child. She was one of the older children in the family, raised by more traditional parents who held their values of family and responsibility close to their chests. As a young girl, she was instilled with the beliefs of independence and resourcefulness, always helping out around the house with chores, errands, and babysitting.

Her family lived up in a more secluded part in the mountain, with their only contact to their nearest town being through long day trips for work, meaning that the children were all homeschooled. It left Yara with only her family to keep her company, but Yara didn’t care. Her family was a close and tight-knit one, all the siblings close friends despite all their disagreements, and Yara couldn’t have loved them more. They were all she ever needed in the world, even if the ideas of adventure frequently called to her.

It was only on the eve of her twelfth birthday when her entire reality changed, leaving Yara’s peaceful life on the mountain disrupted forever……

🌸 𐙚₊˚⊹ RELATIONSHIPS ⊹꒦₊˚ɞ🌷

Oscar Alonso Reyes, father

Evy Coeman Reyes, mother

Kaia Coeman Reyes, eldest daughter

Yara Coeman Reyes, herself

Flora Coeman Reyes, middle daughter

Annika Coeman Reyes, second-middle daughter

Noa Coeman Reyes, youngest daughter

Beau Coeman Reyes, youngest son

୧ ‧₊˚ 🍓 ⋅ ☆

Yara comes from quite a large family. Second eldest to a group of six, she had a lot of responsibility from a young age to take care of the younger ones. Despite this burden, she was extremely close with all of her siblings, and had a good relationship with both of her parents, who she truly loves.

୧ ‧₊˚ 🍓 ⋅ ☆

Apart from her family, she has built quite a life for herself at the Seventh Sector. Despite not being liked by all, she does have two close friends, Aster and Anya.

Aster was her first friend, and is still her best. He found her and rescued her from Noroi, and is a person that Yara found herself instantly attached to. He’s loud and rambunctious where she is quiet and reserved, and the two click like a puzzle piece. She doesn’t trust someone more in the world than him.

Anya was someone Yara met her first day at the Seventh Sector. A younger recruit, she’s bubbly and talkative, but shy at first, just as Yara herself is. Where Aster and Yara contrast each other nicely, Yara and Anya couldn’t be more similar. It’s a match made in heaven.

.... °❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･….

🌸 𐙚₊˚⊹ EXTRA TIDBITS ⊹꒦₊˚ɞ🌷

Yara has a pet raven named Pluto! He randomly passed through the barrier one day after her twelfth birthday, and has not left her side since. She adores him to death.

She’s read all the books in her house so much that she’s memorized all of them. Aster can hold the book up and she can recite them word-for-word.

She was closest to her mother.

She hadn’t ever had sugar before she met Aster. He brought her to a candy shoppe and she went NUTS.

Despite encountering Noroi on a day-to-day basis, she cannot fight to save her life. Aster is always swooping in and saving her (with much dramatics might I add).

She scares REALLY easily. Something which Aster takes full advantage of.

She has a beautiful singing voice. Her mother did too, and it brings Yara a strange sense of belonging to sing. (Pluto even joins in sometimes.)

[seastarblue]

Character Intro: Noha de Escarra

“…hm.”

Basics:

Pronouns: they/them

Species: Halfing (High Elf + Human)

Age: 25

MBTI: idk

Voice Claim: Zuko from ATLA (might change)

Physical:

5’6” (≈ 168cm)

Build: Lean muscle, on the thinner side

Skin: Light brown, many, many freckles

Hair: Medium brown, Messy. Shoulder length.

Eyes: Medium brown, slightly longer pupils that dilate and contract (due to elven blood)

Special Features: pointed and elongated ears, a scar running down from their left eyebrow down to their neck, always looks… wispy?

Personality:

Noha is incredibly closed off to everyone, even those they’re close to. They have a very short temper, though it’s hidden beneath an indifferent exterior. They do have a love of dark humor, however.

Speaking Style: Noha does not like talking, preferring to simply nod and gesture. When they do speak, however, they keep it short. Their temper does show occasionally through their speech. Sometimes they use copious amounts of sarcasm just to get on people’s (li hua’s) nerves.

Likes: knives, frogs, dancing, sunsets, their (ever growing) knife collection, being right, soft blankets, hanging out with kids (they think they’re neat)

Dislikes: pity parties (for them), being wrong, bright lights, dark rooms, loud sounds (very sensitive to the previous three due to trauma and elven blood), being unprepared, being told what to do

Main Goal: “…Not going to jail. And not being ‘returned’ to Escarra.”

Backstory (under the cut):

Noha Ramirez was born in Escarra, to a criminal mastermind known as Matteo Ramirez. Noha lived relatively happy with their mother, Isabella Ramirez, for the first 13 years of their life. And that was what they would have had, if Matteo hadn't needed a new assassin. 

Isabella was killed, and Noha was thrust into a life of glinting daggers, glassy eyes, and rivers of blood.

The few months after their mother's death murder were hazy. Noha kept fading in and out of consciousness, and when they finally came to they were... changed. The wizards said it was for the best, Matteo said it would make Noha's jobs easier, but Noha felt wrong. 

They felt much worse when Matteo sent them to eliminate their first mark, an unsuspecting 34-year-old man by the name of Horatio Gonzales.

Many, many more would come after him.

Noha would remember them all.

"You're a weapon."

"..."

"Say it."

"...I'm a weapon."

They weren’t gonna just sit down and listen anymore. The time for blind obedience had passed. They needed to escape.

Noha had no idea why this petty thief was adamant on going with them. They enjoyed his company, though. 

Noha de Escarra, a former assassin, is now travelling and taking odd jobs to stay afloat. They know they need to stay on the lookout for any of Matteo's goons, though.

Writblr Intro Post

I'm N.C. Zaversnick, which let's be real, is a pen name, but you can call me NC or some variation on that for short

I do have a partner in this project, but I'm the one y'all will be interacting with, so this intro will focus mostly on me. You can, however, follow Rachelle on Instagram @/panda.panduh.

Facts about me:

I'm a major (21+ years old)

Disabled

Queer as hell.

I use he/they pronouns.

I've been writing and drawing since I was 8. I also read a lot, mostly fantasy, though I started reading more dystopians when I began seriously working on Project Gemini.

You can follow my main blog @nczaversnick

Project Gemini is the [temporary] name for my book series, which I intend to publish someday. We're still working on book one, but we're currently planning four books in total for this series.

This is a link to the Master Post, where you will find more links to specific Project Gemini information. [Currently, this link goes to a master post on my main blog, but this will be remedied shortly as I move everything relevant over.]

In a very general sense, this is a YA dystopian series with queer characters aged 21+ with elemental based powers determined to fight for their rights or overthrow the government whichever comes first. The story follows Caspian, a water elemental, and his experience meeting this group and joining their cause. It's also worth mentioning that I've been told the world-building for this is a good example of cyberpunk. I don't know what that is, but if it's true, awesome, because it works well with the story I'm telling here.

Screaming at an Empty Room -

Reintroduction/Update

Hello everyone! Probably too late to do an intro, given that I've been writing on this blog since 2017, but since I've returned after a few years away from writing, I wanted the opportunity to talk about my blog and projects completed and my upcoming plans!

I go by Avaleon everywhere else on the internet, but respond to pretty much anything, including Screaming, hey you, etc! Started this blog in my mid 20s, and aged normally into the early 30s from there. I love writing, have always loved it, but between work and life, it's definitely something that I mostly do late at night and on weekends. I love hearing from people, but I usually answer asks in bunches, and typically right before I post writing. Love hearing about other people's projects as well!

I write short stories, novellas, and occasional full length novels. I am not published, but actively working on self-publishing some of my full length works. Everything I write is posted online, I enjoy sharing my work. The main reason to self publish for me is to have physical copies for myself or anyone who might want one!

My short stories can be found under the #writing tag on my blog. As for the long completed stories, I'll post them below the cut!

Love you Tumblr, happy to be back!

A. Full Length Novels (100,000+ words)

Please Fix the Story!

Description:

I don’t know who I am. I don’t know why I’m trapped in this never ending cycle of rebirth. All I know is that I wake up inside the worlds of unfinished stories, with a mission to accomplish the author’s wishes and stabilize the worlds now headed for destruction. I do my best, hoping, praying that maybe if I complete enough missions, I’ll be able to remember my past and return to my home.

It’s just fixing stories, it should be simple enough.

So can someone explain who this random villain is who keeps following me to each world?

2. I Can’t Eat Love

Description:

Lenora did not have a wonderful life. After her engagement to Prince Ronan is broken, she loses everything… her reputation, her home and her family. Starving on the streets, she dies angry and bitter at how her life unfolded… only to wake up in her old bed, fifteen again, five years before her death. 

Now she must struggle to change her fate, and the fate of the around her. This time she won’t trust in something as flimsy or changeable as love. No, this time she’ll have the power and the money she needs to protect herself. 

Lenora has already lost everything once. She’s not going to lose again. 

No matter the cost.

B. Novellas

I Refuse to be a Named Character

Description:

I woke up inside the world of one of the best selling fantasy book series “Deadly Crown.” Intrigue, handsome heroes, adventure… sounds great, right? Just one problem: all the named characters except the main hero and villain die, are replaced and their replacements die. Being important in this story is a death sentence, so I plan to move to the middle of nowhere, and avoid the plot! 

It should be a fool proof plan, so why do the main characters keep dragging me into the story?

2. Living in a Rewrite of my Own Book World

Description:

This is the story about an author who gets hit by a car right before she can finish her bestselling book series. Trapped in the role of a terrible side character antagonist, she must find a way to change the story’s ending. Not just for her own survival, but for the characters that seem just a little too real to be fiction. (30K words)

Masterpost Linked Here

3.Baby’s First Revenge!

Description:

When Charlotte is betrayed and killed by the friend she sacrificed everything for, she thought it was the end. Instead, she found herself reborn as a baby, with her killer still enjoying the fame of stealing her work. Now, she's coming after him, and plans to make him pay... But first, nap time.

Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7

4. The Supervillain’s Daughter

The story of Erica, a girl who finds out that her brother is the kidnapped child of superheroes, and that her parents are villains. Years later she is the best agent in the Villain Suppression Unit, and hates everything to do with superheroes. So of course she isn’t pleased when she is paired with the strongest man alive, especially because she knows him. But with even darker parts of her past surfacing again, she will have no choice but to join forces and save the world. 

Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4

   A Character Introduction

“…It sure seems like a huge world out there. I can’t wait for it to show me everything that it’s worth! Nothing is holding me back now.”

‧⋆‧₊˚✧Personality✧˚₊‧⋆‧

Perci Tarros can be quite an outgoing and bright spirit. Staying calm during intense situations and having limitless courage to take anything he wants exemplifies this trait. He is also inquisitive, a bit too much for his own good. As well, he can be very overconfident about his abilities and put way too much trust in himself. He can always be seen getting into some kind of trouble, albeit unknowingly. But, due to his quick wit and endless creativity, he manages to squeeze out any trouble that comes his way. He is one to always question the why of things and how they happen, despite never really outgrowing the naive child who doesn’t question further. Because of that, he believes everything that is told to him by a trusted authority figure. Thankfully, he hasn't been led astray or down dangerous paths, but into becoming the best he can be. Though, maybe as he develops his worldview, he can stand strong on his own.

MBTI Type: ENFJ-A

Alignment: Lawful Good

Likes: His family, his friends, expanding his worldview, providing for people, his growth, doing things that he is good at only, excelling in new things, the stars in the night sky, sparring with others, and learning about the world around him

Dislikes: Bossy people, doing things he is bad at, burnout, liars & manipulators, and jerks

Goals: Prove himself to others and himself that he is just as capable as the rest of them and to improve to be the best he can be, learning everything he can about these strange new areas he is exploring on their journey

Hobbies: Practicing his spells (better known as Allurements & Virtues), venturing out in the woods beyond in search of new things, astronomy & stargazing, and cooking

‧⋆‧₊˚✧Appearance✧˚₊‧⋆‧

Height: 5’ 10” or 177cm

Weight: 135

Build: Long and lanky; with quite of bit of muscle mass, but not enough to not get underestimated on his immense skill in magic

Hair: Tousled, brilliant white hair with flowy bangs that obscure his forehead, the back of his hair is much longer than the front, capping off at his shoulders

Eyes: Strikingly blue in color and rather sharply set, thirsting for answers

Skin Complexion: A pale blue, one that blended in perfectly in the ice surrounding him, with small spots of youthful blush on his cheeks and nose

Scars: None

Piercings: 2 small spikes on each ear that jut out on the top of his ear, along the edge

Tattoos: No tattoos but he wears black ceremonial face and body paint that stains his skin, called Rekkala, located on his forehead, down his sloped nose, under his eyes, across his cheekbones, & covering his neck, and spiraling down his arms, ending on his lower back.

*•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙* CHARACTER BIOGRAPHY *•̩̩͙✩•̩̩͙*

· · ───────── ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ ────────── · ·

“If I relaxed my body now, I’d fall apart. I’ve always lived like this, and it’s the only way I know how to go on living. If I relaxed for a second, I’d never find my way back. I’d go to pieces, and the pieces would be blown away.

Why can’t you see that?”

⟢⠀Haruki Murakami, “Norwegian Wood”

☆. BASICS

Name || Cato

⁀➴༯ Name meaning || Cato is a gender-neutral name of Latin and Roman origin, meaning “wise”. Finding its beginnings in Ancient Rome, with Marcus Porcius Cato, or “Cato the Elder”, being the first to bear this title. He was a soldier, senator, and historian who remains one of the most influential people in Roman History.

Nicknames || None

Age || 36 years old

Birthdate || November 23, 877 (Sagittarius)

Gender and Pronouns || Cisgender (she/her)

Sexuality || Heterosexual, Aromantic

Ethnicity || Russian

Classification || Human

Occupation || Cato serves Eden Inc., a Magicus-run corporation that focuses on the protection of Magicae and the seclusion of magic from Humans. She works directly under the Leader, acting as one of the seven CEO’s inside the company, assigned to the Task Force Branch. Living inside warehouse #004, she makes sure that soldiers are prepped for battle and everything to do with their military runs smoothly. She was recruited to the organization when she was 24 years old.

Role || Secondary character, mentor

· · ───────── ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ ────────── · ·

☆. PERSONALITY

Cato is very rigid and set in her ways.

Coming from a negligent family where she had to pave her way to success, always seeming to fall short of her goals, she has been since hardened by a life of poverty and hardship. She's cold and brutal, appearing to be apathetic at times, but for good reason. In the past decade she has lost almost everything inside her life that she has loved or cared for, and it’s caused her to hold everyone who comes near at an arms length. She prefers to live her days out alone, rather than risk another loss. Anything to keep herself from getting hurt again.

Her mission to Eden is the only thing that she cares about anymore. She holds its values on a high pedestal, modelling her own life around its beliefs and ideologies. She’ll do anything to help support the company, having risen to the top in record time from her pure dedication alone.

She’s what can be defined as a workaholic, dividing all her time and attention to her job at Eden. Everything else is an afterthought, meaningless and unimportant. She expects all those that work under her to do the same, forgetting about anything that may distract them from their duties to the company.

She is driven and ambitious, ready to do anything if it means reaching her goal. She won’t accept anything less than it. And she certainly won’t allow herself to fail.

୧ ‧₊˚ ⚔️ ⋅ ☆

Cato is the head commander over the Task Force Branch inside Eden. Working at the company for twelve years, she has fought her way to the top, serving as their most revered soldier as of current. She is deadly loyal to their mission, swearing revenge on the company’s sworn enemy, the Congregation of the Chosen. Taking up residence in warehouse #004, with her disciple Atlas at her side, headed on track to become an Elite, she is certain victory is around the corner. With their secret weapon, there's no doubt the Congregation will fall. There has not been a day in the past seventeen years where she has not thought about tearing that church down, brick by brick, soldier by soldier. She’s determined to put a stop to their crimes — by any means necessary. She will succeed.

୧ ‧₊˚ ⚔️ ⋅ ☆

Traits || Strict, intimidating, guarded, serious, dry, determined, harsh, driven, closed-off

Alignment || Lawful evil

Likes || Atlas, kids, Eden Inc., winning, working, sincerity, schedules, fighting, being busy

Dislikes || The Congregation of the Chosen, weakness, incompetency, most of the other leaders (namely Sasha), failure, liars, meetings, most people

Fears || ?

Hobbies || Overseeing training, missions, fighting, working, writing reports, reading paperwork, training new recruits, going to meetings, cooking

· · ───────── ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ ────────── · ·

☆. APPEARANCE

Cato is quite a petite person, standing at barely average height, with a build that is on the smaller side. Yet despite her short stature, Cato is still a presence not to be contended with. She’s very muscular, to the point that it instantly catches your attention, despite whatever clothes she’s in. She has what can be considered as a swimmers build.

She has dark, wavy brunette hair that can always be found pulled into a tight, firm bun that rests atop her head. Occasionally a few loose strands escape and frame her face. She has very sharp and pointed features, with heart-shaped lips, precisely plucked eyebrows a shade darker than her hair, and pale skin. Her eyes are mismatched, with one being a deep chocolate brown and the other being a silvery, pale blue.

She has a singular tattoo, found on the back of her left hand. It is the symbol of Eden, marked in black ink.

Height || 5’5”

Aesthetic || Cato can be most frequently found in a uniform similar to the rest of the CEOs of Eden, which is a black in colour, with jade accents. She prefers to wear outfits that are fairly tightly-fitted to her figure, most of her closet being made up of black and dark colours.

· · ───────── ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ ────────── · ·

☆. EXTRA TIDBITS

Her last name is actually Cato. No one knows what her first name was, and she refuses to speak about it.

Cato is skilled in many different types of combat, but prefers to use a staff as her weapon of choice. This is subsequently why it is also Atlas’ favourite.

When she was 19 years old she and her younger sister were attacked by the Congregation of the Chosen, resulting in Cato losing her eye. She’s sworn revenge ever since.

Her glass eye is personally crafted by some of Eden’s greatest minds, and has special abilities of its own. She can scan information about a person, whether it be their powers, classification, age, name, background, family, ideals, et cetera. It can also see through most magic, such as illusions. This gives her a higher up in battle, despite being human.

She personally trained Atlas herself, something that she doesn’t do often.

She dislikes most of her coworkers and prefers to complete her missions by herself. It annoys her deeply to be assigned with someone that she didn’t request.

Her favourite food is cucumber salad.
