Soot Gremlins

Under the Demon's Onyx Shadow: Why Are Demon Lords Obsessed With Me?

Update: Mon, Wed, and Fri [Mature Content] Amongst the battlefield of death and destruction, a lone warrior, her body ravaged by bone charring burns. Spirits of the recently dead drifted aimlessly, and hungry Burburus devoured both souls and body, sparing only the living and strong-willed. Yet, she found herself fixated on the Demon Lord, Ose, and the fact she is convinced he is in love with her. ... A vile smell rose from the brimstone red of blood and entrails that spilled from allies, foes, and those that were supposed to be protected. Hundreds of bodies blanketed the landscape of debris that was once a great city, wails and cries of the dying were heard over the strong winds, their hands wet as they tried to hold their own life in their wounds. If only she had more training to assist with their injuries, in the knighthood she was groomed for solely combat. The spirits of the recently dead roamed aimlessly, not yet aware they were dead and that they would meet true nonexistence if they were not to seek shelter from the real horror to come. A sense in Yin energy was coming from the vast distance, but she was distracted by the smell and sight of a battle that was truly ungodly; fitting for battles between there armies led by Demons. Above, she could see the sunlight having its own battle with thick clouds that were a profane-black with only a little light caressing her skin, deep as rich earth. The lack of sunlight only made her colder, and fortunately for her more impassive to her surroundings, or that could also be because of the fact that a large part of her body weren't charred until her bones were blackened. Her skin was covered in the soot of the nerves and flesh of her right arm, shoulder, and parts of her torso that were completely disintegrated. "Dammit, Ose," she thought bitterly, her frustration boiling within with each sharp breathe in her chest. "If it wasn't for your ridiculous obsession with me, I wouldn't be here--suffering in hell and then some." Ever since he first laid his eyes on her, she was convinced the Demon Lord had secretly fallen in love with her. The threaded sigil of his eyes that seemed to hold the magic of the aurora lights remained visible on the back of her uniform, though her body was barely there. In the name of her tormentor, the 'Great' Demon Lord Ose, she walked towards the edge of the battlefield.

Chronicles of a Certain Lich

a very undead lich with a thirst for knowledge, an edgy guy with a thirst for blood, a gremlin with a thirst for explosions, a tree with a thirst for ... water (what did you expect), and many more. How did these people meet each other? What are their motives? How does one get an infinite bag? Why is there a tree? Accompany this group of odd adventures on their path to greatness beyond evil and good. Seriously watch out for the gremlin and the undead, they are evil I tell ya. Hi Author here, This Story is inspired by and written to accompany our D&D campaign. The whole campaign story is designed by our DM of course. Every NPC, Landmark, Place, City and more was envisioned by her. For anonymity, I will not reveal her name until she wants me to. I myself am the undead lich, so if I write more about him, that's the reason for it. I simply know him better. This will be the first of my attempted (and failed) novels to ever be published. I use Grammarly for spelling and grammar mistakes. Momentarily only the free version to save money. I'm open to any constructive critique. Tell me in the comments if I made a mistake or if i should phrase something differently. Updates will not come regularly, because its D&D and our group doesn't have fixed times at which we play together. Furthermore I expand on the story, add characteristics to the characters in our group to make it more interesting and believable. (A certain player has a char. with no emotions which gets annoying and irritating after a time.) That's it, if you've read till here that means you've got all the information you need to know before reading. Bye.

A Simple Wanderer

A scar has been carved through the Earth, a jagged canyon extends from the distance. At its end, it's deepest section, waves of heat distort view betone recognition. The crater bleeds molten rock down it's sides, still hot from this landmark's creation. The shadowy visage of a humanoid figure becomes recognisable as it comes further from the pit of magma that is the deepest part of the site. It stumbles, and light shining on its front reveals what looks like a human. Blood streaks down from its closed eyes, drawing lines in the layer of soot coating it. The soot covers it's body, but the light pink of it's exposed muscle couldn't be fully hidden. The skin covering it's heels and back was missing, having been worn onto the rock it parted. There would also be a bit spread through the atmosphere from the entry, but most of what is missing was taken upon impact. "Oh f*ck that hurt like a b*tch. Not my best landing." the creature groaned as it ran it's hands over the wounds. It then reached up and grabbed the dirtied skin of it's skull, and tore it apart like a seam. It ripped it down around his torso, having to push it along his arms like removing a too-tight sock. At the hands, it had to pull the finger tips away like a glove before peeling the skin off completely. The legs and feet were dealt with similarly. Stepping out of its own skin, muscle clear to the air with the exception of what the rock coated in soot, it says "Whelp, new world, new me!" in a tone much lighter than the situation would call for. Hello there. I'm a native English speaker/writer, so I like to think I know what I'm doing with this stuff but really though, I don't. So please correct any of my grammatical, cultural, or progressional (plot) errors in the chapter comments. I'm writing this for fun and to prove that if authors actually think for more than half a second when developing their stories, it can actually be good. I won't be updating very often unless this is met with an abnormally good reception, but yeah. Hope you enjoy!

EL UNO DE ORO_THE GOLDEN ONE

It was on Thursday, 21st August 1975 when our story began…in general! “Isabela!? Isabela!? Isabela López!?” called by a beautiful young lady, Señorita Sofía Martínez. “Isa…bela!?” She was highly shocked to see an unprepared beautiful young lady in a towel, but, who was also nervously scared to death. She was Señora Isabela López de Sánchez. They were in room 64. Sofía asked her best friend, Isabela, why she was not ready yet for their friends’ party, and she answered, “Oh, well, I cannot go there without seeing it!” As she was nervously scared to death, she was searching over and all over again…the unknown, but, mysterious thing! A strange person overheard them secretly hiding behind the entrance door when the two best friends were jazzing some things which seemed to be as terrible and terrifying as they seemed! Sofía left and Isabela stayed in trauma and searching over and over the mysterious thing! When Sofía was heading to her friends’ party downstairs, she always heard someone following behind her, but, not even a single shadow was there…because, it was in the darkness. …‘Isabela López’…I will kill her tonight!”… The mysterious person was wearing black shoes with black trouser, covered him/herself with a long black gabardine coat, and those black gloves. Isabela menaced that person, “I over searched the golden one to prove your villainy and show everyone who you really are…thanks to that videotape which is hidden somewhere safely…your time is over!” The person in black angrily closed the door unlocked by force, and put a gun towards Isabela. She had another greatest shock, “NO! NOOO! NOOOO…” Then, “POOF!” Last, but, not least update…I think…we have the total of nine suspects for the murder of Isabela López de Sánchez: Victoria Carina, Carmela, Adrián Agustín, Théophilia, Comandante Humberto, Leticia Araceli, Lobo Mateo, Apolinar Rutilio and Carina Amada. Who amongst them really murdered Isabela López de Sánchez? The moonlight was intermitted to him, blinking on and off as dark clouds of sadness and guilt scraped across its path like chunks of soot in the night sky. In the moonlight, it looked as if it could have been a white desert or the surface of a faraway planet… ~Mugisha Didier.
