Sigils

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

[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.

Apex Abyssal

In a world split by the Light and the Abyss, Kaidan was destined to be ordinary. Born a human in the borderlands, he knew only struggle and survival, caught between the distant ideals of the Bright Races and the brooding might of the Outer Races. While the powerful ones boasted of "peace," Kaidan saw only lies—a fragile truce masking deep-seated corruption and oppression. The Apexers ruled through control and order, the Abyssals by fear and chaos, and the world remained in a silent, unbreakable stalemate. But one fateful night changes everything. Cornered in a life-or-death battle he has no hope of winning, Kaidan’s will ignites, fracturing the limits of his reality. Instead of falling into darkness, he awakens with something no one should possess: the power of both the Apexers and the Abyssals. Now armed with abilities beyond comprehension, Kaidan is bound by a single promise: to destroy the false peace and expose the lies the powerful use to control the realms. Yet, as he journeys through the Bright Realms, the Outer Zones, and even the hidden realms beyond, Kaidan learns that his power comes with a cost. Relics, Sigils, and Nexus Chains both strengthen and strain him, threatening to unravel his body and mind. Worse still, each step he takes closer to his goal attracts the attention of forces far stronger—and far more ancient—than even he could imagine. With friends and foes from all races, Kaidan faces the ultimate test of willpower, risking everything to forge his own path. In a world where unity is a myth and rebellion is a death sentence, Kaidan will fight to make his mark, challenging both Heaven and Hell alike. In a land of fractured realms and twisted loyalties, can one boy truly change the fate of the universe? Or will the shadows of the past consume him before he ever sees the dawn? Join Kaidan in Apex Abyssal, where power is a burden, loyalty is a choice, and rebellion is the only way to find the truth.

Kindred Hearts Esper Chronicles

In the year 1995, a crystalline meteor hurtled towards Earth and crashed in the forests of Aomori, spreading clouds of mysterious dust upon its impact. These dust clouds contain a mysterious substance that turns children and teenagers alike into Espers, human beings gifted with supernatural powers known as Sigils. Some have telekinetic powers, others can control elemental properties and some of them have mind-control powers. As time passes, Espers faces prejudice from normal people due to their powers, fearing that they might replace them. Some of them even think that Espers must be eradicated. There are even people who want to capture Espers and exploit their Sigils. On that day, an organization dedicated to researching and defending these supernatural youngsters known as Lazuline was formed. They even built a paradise for them known as Azure City, an artificial island located on the temperate waters of Sagami Bay, Japan. However, Azure City was just a temporary solution to the Espers. Eldritch beings known as Deviants invaded the city and the shadow of a mysterious consortium loomed upon its supernatural inhabitants, and they must fight back for their rights to live. These are the stories of their struggles and their daily life amidst the threat posed by the evil forces.

The Lone Descent

“I am the end.” ________________________________ "S, why can't you teach me like a regular person? I need a teacher, I can't keep depending on Gilgamesh. I don't have a specific weapon either, and I need to fight." Adam stared at his hands, almost laughing at the sight. 'His hands' were mechanical now, filled with nuts and bolts. [YOUR INTELLIGENCE IS TOO LOW] That was an insult, but Adam didn't take it to heart. His intelligence was lower than most, and he needed to raise it, and fast. "Tell me, how do I raise my intelligence? I need something, anything," Adam pleaded. S took on humanoid form, but it wasn't a form he recognized. It was the form of an old man with a walking cane, and a back bent almost halfway. "How does this help me?" Adam asked, brimming with barely concealed rage. He couldn't let the others get ahead of him. He needed to contribute too. "Patience, you lack it. You fight with a vengeance, instead of fighting with a purpose. What do you want to protect? And why?" "Myself and The Renegades," Adam answered, shocked at how easily the answer came to him. "A barely passable answer, but I'll take it for now. Protect yourself for ten minutes, and I'll consider teaching you," S said and Adam swallowed. "Protect myself from what?" He asked. S had a weird sense of humor and he was starting to realize. [SIMULATING: A WILD BEAR] ________________________________ In a far-off future in an alternate timeline, there was a world called Lumos. In this world, magic was as common as breathing. And the more powerful ones had a system called Sigils. But something changed in the year 2500. Magic finally had a rival: Technology. Things were meant to be better for the citizens of Lumos. However, some humans who lived in that world weren’t so lucky. Adam Wayfarer was one of those people. Without a thing to show for his years on Lumos, he lived in the most rundown part of the city—where dreams die. No parents, no relatives, no money. Adam Wayfarer took a shady deal to make a little bit more money. What happens when the deal goes wrong, and Adam is left to die, abandoned in a world he doesn’t recognize? Will he survive, or give up finally? In a world where magic clashes with technology, the world upturns itself. State against state, country against country, continent against continent. The corruption seeps into the fabric of the world, dyeing it red. Even the gods are not left out. Who’s left standing at the end? ____________ Here’s my discord: https://discord.gg/gvPWA7Yx
