《False Prophecy (Prelude)》Character Showcase: Wilm and Rugged
Advertisement

Wilm's father died a hero before their very eyes. He was their only parent, their sole friend, and their greatest idol; everything he taught them has in some way shaped the person they've become. In the end, seeing his body get ripped into pieces by a horde of Carrion barbarians was the defining moment that granted them the Sight. At the age of 14, they were taken from their rural roost as a lithe, frail child. Four years of intensive training at Westwind Academy later, they are one exam away from graduating as top student into a full-fledged Seer.
Wilm's fae, Rugged, is a chiselled man carved from extremely durable stone. Though he is slow to move, his body is dense enough to pack a significant punch. With his fists, he is able to hammer rock into weapons and armor for himself and his Seer to wield. Like him, this equipment is incredibly hard and heavy. While Rugged can pick them up with ease, Wilm's muscles have grown similarly dense and powerful, enabling them to carry several plates and swing their favored claymore with their entire weight.
The stoic pair have sworn their lives to defending the innocent from the Fated King's enemies. With their combined strength, they aim to protect families like Wilm's from being torn apart by the impending War. Every day spent training, it marches closer. Both intend to be prepared.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
A world where magic must be hidden from mankind is a world where mages have no reason to exist. Zara was one of them--a young woman forced to spend her days in confinement, to lessen the risks of outsiders discovering the truth. She was not human. She was, as they say, a living embodiment of a thousand year old curse upon the Kingdom and humanity as a whole. And the only way to handle a curse is to get rid of it--which is precisely what the Kingdom had been doing for centuries--eliminating any being that contained even an ounce of enchanted blood. Zara has lived most of her life with the threat of death hanging over her head, though it never averted her heightening curiosity about magic, nor the abilities innate within her. And when a powerful, enigmatic Sorcerer comes to her with a proposition, Zara finally sees her chance to embrace the curse she was born with. It was a chance laced with precarity and destruction, but a chance nonetheless...

GIG: God In Gold
So let's cut the pretense: this is some garbage-tier weaboo fiction. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I feel it's important to say that this is some nonsense I write for fun. I don't think it's very good. I'd even go as far as to say that I'm not a good writer at all. I picked up a ball that started rolling when I was a kid and have been intermittently punting it towards the next chapter whenever I feel like it. And you can come on this garbage ride too if you really feel like it. Who knows, maybe there's some gold to be salvaged from this dumpster fire? Synposis: Satou Shibuya is a first year student at Niflheim's Kawagusa General Academy. He's also the self-proclaimed strongest power user, sporting a big enough number on his birth certificate to make a nuclear bomb glow green with envy. There's something to be said about a person whose head is so far up their own ass that you find yourself watching their every move with bated breath, ever curious to see which hole they'll dig themselves into next. This is not that kind of story. This is a story about pride, coming of age, but actually, this is a story about big, stupid superpowered fights. Update Schedule: Whenever.
