They say if you ever want to cast a curse, you must know the spell that summons a cursebound spirit. There are only seven cursebound spirits the world over, so you must be both powerful and cunning in order to motivate one of them to do your bidding.

Raven, a cursebound spirit, has been beholden to the whims of dark sorcerers all their life. But somehow, by some fluke or perhaps a mistake, one day, they began to wake up…. and develop a will of their own. It might have something to do with the tutelary spirit of the fireflies, whom they soon come to call their best friend. And it all happens just in time for the two of them to run into a mage who calls himself Orion, and find out that he is searching for a cure to his curse.

Shenanigans afoot.

On an earth-like world home to many kinds of mutants (called “Angels,”) Gloria is trying to find her way as the daughter of a human and a merman. She goes to great lengths to hide her scales and fins and leads a lonely life to that end, doing her best to blend in with other humans. Until one day, she encounters a secret society of sorts, a group of Angels like her that hang out at a mysterious local inn known as “The Golden Goby.” (a few of the characters here are my original designs, but for the most part, this story is home to the vast majority of adoptable characters I've brought home!) Several of the plot beats in this story are inspired by the Finnish epic "Kalevala."

relatively new universe, although no overarching plot for the moment. some worldbuilding/dev in the works.

edit: a plot is beginning to develop. I cannot write it down yet bc there are bees in my brain unfortunately

In an alternate New Orleans riddled with fantasy and mystery, angels and demons swarm like insects towards either vice or virtue, and stop at nothing to eliminate the energies of the opposing side. Humankind getting caught up in the battle is not uncommon, but the bite of either entity will transform a person into one of Them, leaving a husk of a creature with feeble free will and a loss of humanity that drives them out of society.

Generally, humans seek to appease the angels and defy the demons, but it is a once-human-devil who saves Laila's life by giving her a mask to shield herself from the angels after she is bitten, staving off the transformation and giving her a little longer to try to reverse the magic. However, she isn't sure yet whether she's buying more time, or simply delaying the inevitable.

The basis of the story was expanded upon from a rough concept outlined by Laila's original designer/creator, seventeendeer! The original concept and Laila were purchased in a trade, but the rest of the characters and worldbuilding are my personal works.
