The Shadow Child's Legacy

Synopsis: The Order of Shadows and the Legacy of the Shadow Child In the somber kingdom of Lysareth, threatened by a blight of wilting and a deadly insomnia known as "The Unveiling," a ten-year-old orphan named Etan Luwin struggles to find his place. Abandoned at the enigmatic Shadow Gate with a mysterious mark on his left palm, Etan was recruited by the cold and strict Order of Shadows, a brotherhood of spy-mages who view him as a mere tool for his innate abilities to manipulate shadows. Under the tutelage of Master Alaric, Etan masters stealth, the whispers of darkness, and illusions, though each use of his powers brings him closer to the paranoia of the "Echo of the Dark Night," the whispers of the minor demons imprisoned within his mark. Etan's life takes a dark turn when, accidentally, his mark reacts to an ancient parchment, revealing a symbol identical to his own and a chilling connection to the Draining Machine, a legendary artifact threatening to consume the kingdom's life force. This machine is the centerpiece of Veylan Mordrake's plan, the Archon of Shadows, a noble demon obsessed with resurrecting his deceased wife, Elandra, by breaking ancient pacts that maintain the balance between life and death. Now, Etan, the "Shadow Child," must infiltrate Nymorgath, the twisted underground citadel of the Shadow Court, to steal the fragments of the "Umbral Heart" –the Draining Machine's blueprints– guarded by treacherous heroes. Only by mastering his own darkness and the dangerous whispers of his mark can Etan unravel the legacy of his abandonment and prevent Lysareth from being consumed, left... abandoned to death.

Conquering the Stars with the Undead

“You shall command… Legacy.” Charon thought he would grow up to be a hero, a savior, a shining light for all humans across the galaxy. But humanity is at war. Beset on all sides, their empire is standing only through the combined forces of technology and magic. Massive mechs were constructed, the fabled Colossus Machines, designed to defend the galaxy. The Mages were rallied, bringing forth elemental destruction. Yet it wasn't enough. Planets fell, their people enslaved to the enemies of mankind. Even the Colossus Machines, strong as they were, could not keep up. Charon was one of the orphans caught in the war effort, surviving through determination and courage, earning him the gaze of the God of Death. Gifted with a great and terrible power, the reviled element Soul, the dead around him suddenly become gateways into a realm thought lost to time. Through it, he can chain undead beasts to himself, forcing them to serve in his legions. With these powers, he learns something new about magic and technology: He can fuse souls into the Colossus Machines, allowing the power of Death to run through their cores. They become warped, twisted machines of vengeance that earn malevolent abilities. They become strong enough to win a war. Magic and machine are mixed to create something more, something darker. An army fit for a master of magic, a general of legions, a conqueror of the stars... An Archon of Death. **WARNING** The story has a lot of nuance and subplots. If you like complex world-building and lore, you'll love this. DISCORD: https://discord.gg/BJ3DTumc29
