✎Magical Mishaps

a world much like our own—except for everyone being anthro animals—many adore fictional magical girls. The ever popular mascot Mu-mu is a perfect example of this, as wherever you turn, you're likely to run into merchandise or advertisements adorning her image.

Of course, magical girls are simply fiction, everybody knows that- But, what if you could actually become one for real...?

Magical Helpers

After the rise of smartphones in the early 2010's, a certain mysterious phone app slowly raised its head. Disguised as merely an app to reward you for real-life good deeds in the form of a fun little game, it turns out to be capable of giving its players magical powers: generally enhanced physical capabilities, such as jumping, speed and brute force; and a magical weapon and outfit of your choice. The app calls such people "magical helpers", but amongst one another they often get referred to simply as magical girls, as it's a term everyone's familiar with— and what are they, really, if not real-life magical girls?

SEP. \| ➄ Malady Reload In the months since arriving in the city, several factions have formed between the new Magicals. Their instructions are simple: "Find the door." Unable to leave, and with many not agreeing with following the orders they've been given by whoever orchestrated this, infighting is only inevitable.

I'm currently in the process of reorganising here, I wanted them to be sorted more based on amount of use rather then their stories.
Some of the characters still have links to folders that either don't exist or have been renamed/repurposed, I'll replace those with tags soon!
