world

INTRODUCTIONOnce, they were ordinary people, living their lives on Earth. That was before they touched a cursed object - a moment of choice, desperation, or simply an accident. In an instant, their fate was sealed. Shifting into a whole new world, there is no point of return, or at least most of the people think so. This realm, named Vethralis, is a place they had to accept as a new home.

VETHRALIS
Compared to the modern era where they came from, Vethralis is frozen back in time. This place was ruled by two ancient powers: the gods and the devils. It used to be a land a mere human could only dream of, a simple fantasy, a place where magic comes to life. Not even some of the hostile creatures could poison the beautiful scenery and otherwise peaceful life ruled by pure harmony between the highest rulers. But even peace had to come to an end.Once, the highest ruler of the devils defied the pact of harmony. This pact was absolute: both gods and devils had a role in shaping the destinies of humans, ensuring no one held total control. The gods were responsible for granting blessings, guidance, and fate, while the devils balanced it, testing humanity through challenges, misfortune, and temptation. Together they maintained the cycle of life and death, preserving order in the world.However, the devil ruler saw something more: the human spirit and its capacity to defy destiny. The power of resisting their fate and instead finding a hope and a meaning in a world that often sought to crush them was more than fascinating. He encountered countless people with such qualities, but one of them was crucial. From this point in history, the legends diverge: Was it empathy? Act of rebellion? A moment of his vulnerability? Despite all the unknowns, one thing stays certain. It was the first time in history a ruler decided about the human fate alone, bypassing the sacred process. This act, which revealed cracks in the god’s authority, enraged their highest ruler, who saw it as nothing more but a mere action of betrayal. This simple moment sparked up a war between the powers that took countless tries to end, but never stopped. The ruler's war, raging for centuries, made the land nothing more than a disaster, filled with rage of the gods that failed to fulfill their role.

PRESENT
To this day, the war continues, although for now, in a less devastating form. The gods are on an ultimate hunt, using their abilities against humanity. Their goal is clear: expanding the ranks by turning mortals into gods. While seeking ultimate dominance, their actions are vicious, reading the darkest corners of human souls, performing forbidden rituals of blood exchange, binding humans to their divine will, transforming them and robbing them of their mortal life.
Meanwhile, the devils walk a fine line between being allies to humanity and enemies to the gods, wanting to restore the peace that once prevailed and bring Vethralis back without dooming the world or the people who remained.For the population, neutrality has become the safest option. Anyone who would openly favor the devils would risk their own life, while overly supporting the gods is a risk of their souls being claimed and twisted. Most have learned to hide their true beliefs to have at least a little peace in life. Some of the others pretend to be on the side of the merciless rulers, even with the risk of becoming one, just because of the vision of profit from the reigning chaos. Survival has become the ultimate goal, with many accepting the harsh reality of a world under constant conflict. The safest places are the cities and most of the population is concentrated there, as living outside comes with many challenges and a lot more danger.The cursed objects that appear on planet Earth were born from this ongoing conflict by the devil’s hands. With so many natives now being gods, this was seen as one of the options to find someone that holds the key to breaking the cycle and potentially could make this come to an end.

TRAITS
Rein's life took a drastic turn after crossing paths with Damon and it entirely reshaped his identity. Due to a traumatic experience he forged a great wall around his true self - now acting as a completely emotionally detached person. He rarely smiles and his true beliefs and feelings are nothing more but a mystery. Sarcasm and sharp, sassy language became a form of his shield, masking deep pain. Beneath the surface, Rein fights a high-functioning depression that has left him disinterested in life and filled him with emptiness and pure hate for other people and the world itself. Yet he has found an unusual relief in combat - the only thing that brings a little bit of light and joy to his life. Despite all the negatives, Rein is responsible and hardworking towards any goal he sets. He is affectionate towards his beloved cat Scar, and Damon, the only person who remains close to him, despite being the cause of his pain.JOB
Involved in the black market under Damon, serving as his right hand. Rein is responsible for promotion and sales of rare inks. Over time, he has built a network of loyal customers that solidified his reputation in the market's world.

A web of emotions, from their very first meeting, Rein felt utter hatred towards Damon and his actions.

After all, he was Rein's only anchor point in the foreign world.

Fynn
younger brother

Damon Maertz

human with special abilities || age: 25 || gender: male || height: 190 cm || weight: 75 kg || zodiac: scorpio

TRAITS
Damon is extroverted and always makes sure he’s the centre of attention. He knows just the right words to say, acts empathetic and likes to shower people with compliments. By making himself charming and approachable nearly everyone tends to trust him. Yet he keeps his personal life in secrecy, because beneath all of this, lies Damon’s true core. Being a master manipulator and a liar, he made this mask in order to secure his survival in society, most of the time using people for his own good without any hard feelings. Forming genuine bonds is a rarity and his behavior led him to manipulate Rein, using him as one of many subjects for his experiments. In this moment, which changed both of their lives, Damon found himself unexpectedly forming a friendship connection with Rein, making him the only person Damon truly cares about.JOB
A skilled tattoo artist involved in black market. Starting his job as an immoral illegal activity, experimenting with scleral tattooing upon defenseless people. After Rein being such a victim, Damon abandoned part of his practices, now tattooing only those who gave consent. But his work still remains rooted to the black market. Damon has perfected the art of crafting inks infused with rare ingredients, seeked not only by the dealers. These inks are rumored to awaken abilities in those who bear them, making it a highly sought-after, but dangerous product.FACTS OF NOTE
• first sclera tattoo he did was on himself - due to that he lost sight in one eye
• tattoo on his leg is done with one of the special inks - awakening healing ability
• loves any flowers that are purple
• every victim or a client of Damon has a number on chest
• the tattoo under his left eye reflects rose thornsRELATIONSHIPS

Rein
partner-in-crime

Once one of his victims, for whom he felt nothing, Rein was little more than an afterthought to Damon. He was forced into taking care and responsibility after their complicated first meeting and something began to stir with him - a battle of accepting his feelings which didn't last long. Damon found himself unable to take a step without Rein as he grew way too close to his core.

Sepph
ex-friend

A friend from before Vethralis. Damon knows him due to the connections in the tattoo and piercing community, but doesn't remember him fondly. Their encounters now are mostly limited to city events, but Damon tries to avoid contact.

Fynn

Met just once in Vethralis for a scleral tattoo.

Fynn Ralis

human-god-devil one of a kind || age: 19 || gender: male || height: 173 cm || weight: 63 kg || zodiac: aries

TRAITS
Fynn is a quiet, introverted soul, often lost in his own thoughts. His common habit of daydreaming blurs the line between reality and his imagination, often leaving him confused of the world. His reserved and observant nature makes others feel unsure, drawing them to conclusions of Fynn being cheeky or rude. He is independent which often drives him to distance himself from others, even those closest to him. He struggles with tasks that are not interesting enough, but when something resonates with his soul, Fynn can become a fast learner, completely devoting everything he has towards it. Most of his life was shadowed by his low-selfesteem - a consequence of constant comparison to his older brother Rein. Only with Mykel’s support Fynn managed to overcome his insecurities.JOB
A hobby of crafting knives, daggers and other things of use out of animal bones became the only source of income for Fynn. For some time, he was in charge of maintaining Mykel’s cottage, which earned him not only a place to stay, but also a sense of belonging. He also took care of Mykel’s horse Vela and later he took the unexpected responsibility of his own horse Castello, before leaving this chapter of his life behind.FACTS OF NOTE
• owner of horse Castello
• had his sclera tattoo done by Damon voluntarily to prove his strength
• uses Mykel’s old katana
• studies and collects information about the world, including demonology and theology
• became god, devil and human hybrid after one incident
• wears a bone-like mask as a ‘‘tribute’’ to MykelRELATIONSHIPS

Mykel
former master, best friend

The person who changed his life for the better. Fynn considers Mykel more than just a mentor - he’s a soulmate. It used to be someone he can rely on - perhaps in many ways, Mykel has similar traits as Rein’s old buried self, the older caring brother that Fynn subconsciously seeks back. Even after parting ways, he’s willing to fight for Mykel without hesitation.

L'Mort
familiar

Fynn knows Mort from his visits and tends to be a bit cautious around him, as he struggles to fully grasp his perspective. But whenever something sparks his interest, he’s not afraid to ask him and appreciates L'Mort's knowledge. They didn’t grow close as both of them are rather distant.

Rein
older brother

The person, precisely the reason that got him into the new world.

Damon

Met just once for his scleral tattoo in Vethralis. Fynn is clueless about Damon's relation to Rein.

Sepph

Met just once for a rather complicated reason.

Mikael ‘Mykel’ Velour Weiss

half-god || age: 39 || gender: male || height: 180 cm || weight: 78 kg || zodiac: capricorn

TRAITS
Mykel is the embodiment of a bad fate, yet he is the most genuine and intelligent person you could meet. Always acting empathetic and polite, this reflects years of working closely with people and he truly found himself in this role. Mykel often prioritizes the needs of others over his own, but he struggles with openly expressing affection. The adventurous spirit and thirst for knowledge drives him towards seeking anything that’s new. As a thorough person, he approaches things systematically and always makes plans beforehand. He enjoys solving problems, offering motivation, listening to the struggles or sharing his battle skills with others. Whether teaching someone to fight or shielding them from harm, Mykel is a man of many talents, liked, known and appreciated by many, always welcomed everywhere.JOB
Renowned as a master of arms, most of the people come to him to learn the art of battle as he takes apprentices under his wings. Besides that, Mykel’s days are filled with many different activities, from serving as a personal coach to tackling others’ challenges, passing his knowledge or exploring ideas. His skills also come in handy in the city stables, as he shares a very strong bond with horses, making him a valued person to take care of them.FACTS OF NOTE
• owner of horse Vela
• uses only the nickname Mykel, hates his full name
• comes from a high-class family
• living outside of the city
• loves sunflowers
• wears a mask to cover his skin pigmentation and young appearance (= sign of being a god, which is not well accepted amongst citizens)
• wears gloves almost all the timeRELATIONSHIPS

Fynn
former apprentice, best friend

Fynn grew very close to his soul, but Mykel never found the right way to express his appreciation. He sees him as the most diligent person he has ever trained and although Fynn’s boldness was sometimes too much for his practical and systematic approach to things, he wouldn’t change a thing. Fynn’s leaving left a deep wound on him and he truly misses him.

L'Mort
good friend

They meet quite regularly, though their friendship depends on L’Mort, as he’s the one who can visit. Often, Mykel gets scared of his sudden presence, convinced that his time is near, only to find out it’s just Mort and his coffee break. Mykel truly values the time and knowledge he gains when spending time together.

Sepph

Mykel knows him and they’ve met a few times, mostly at city events. They never interacted much, but later, Sepph ended up helping him with something significant.

Sepph Clyde

half-devil || age: 27 || gender: male || height: 189 cm || weight: 91 kg || zodiac: leo

TRAITS
Sepph is a pure definition of energy, his extroverted and easy-going nature making him a magnet for conversation. He’s quick to connect with anyone who can withstand his humor and language. Once you truly earn his trust, he is a loyal and dependable friend, often expressing affection through physical touch. Sepph’s passion is to bring joy and light up this twisted world, not just for himself, but also for others. Although all the zest is more than just his nature - it’s his way of coping with a rather hard past. Some of the old habits still live with him to this day. He’s driven towards money and his greed knows few limits, as he’s willing to take any risks if the payoff promises a sack of coins, sometimes making him almost a naive and easily influenced person.JOB
Once a stripper and escort serving both men and women, Sepph hasn’t abandoned this lifestyle even after getting to Vethralis. Thanks to his hard work and sheer determination, he was able to transform an old cathedral into a vibrant heart of the city - a nightclub known under the name Blue Velvet. Sepph made this place an epicenter of all the entertainment and city events, and if you pay him enough, he might also step back into the spotlight of the club.FACTS OF NOTE
• has a lot of step-siblings, but only knows about one
• got a porcelain-like tattoo to match the pendant his mother gave him
• has a lot of scars all over his body from his past work
• has a tendency to collect odd trinkets and keeps them displayed in Blue Velvet - mainly small porcelain figurinesRELATIONSHIPS

Damon
ex-friend

A friend from before Vethralis. Sepph has no hard feelings towards him, but fully understands why Damon keeps his distance. Their encounters now are mostly limited to city events.

Mykel

They know each other mostly from city events, where Sepph grew to respect Mykel. Later on, he ended up helping Mykel with something significant - for a sack of coins of course.

L'Mort

human-undead || age: in 40s || gender: male || height: 195 cm || weight: 82 kg || zodiac: aquarius

TRAITS
L’mort appears cold and stone-hearted, his demeanor often being mistaken for heartlessness. He is just deeply misunderstood, his intelligence setting him apart from mortals who struggle to grasp his perspective. The lack of empathy in his words serves as a defense mechanism to help him preserve sanity. L’mort avoids forming any close bonds, because of his deeply hidden fear of loss. Lone wandering around his realm fills most of his time and it fuels him with a feeling of peace. Though he presents himself with seriousness and almost regal manner, when talking to someone, he occasionally attempts to break the monotony with humor. Unfortunately, his jokes often end up being disastrously unfunny.JOB
Serving as a bridge between gods and devils, L’mort was entrusted with the task of guiding souls through their final moments in Vethralis. His work includes managing physical remains, as well as guiding the souls, ensuring the transition is handled with dignity. L'mort approaches his work with professionalism, trying to make the last experience as gentle and sacred as possible.FACTS OF NOTE
• controls abilities such as necromancy, magic and has a great medical knowledge
• makes "living companions" with his necromancer skills out of skeletons
• collects human blood into the droplets (wearing on his coat) and gifts it to his clients as a talisman
• has scar on the neck - a remain of his call for helpRELATIONSHIPS

Mykel
good friend

L’Mort enjoys visiting Mykel whenever he has some time to spare and is in a mood to socialize. He sees Mykel as someone equally wise and someone who understands him better than others. Mort loves to share insights about the world and his job with him. Deep inside, he truly values their friendship, but tries to suppress these emotions.

Fynn
familiar

Since Fynn is often around Mykel when L’Mort visits, they are familiar. Mort occasionally exchanges a few words with him about the world, theology, demonology and whatever Fynn is curious about. They didn’t grow close as both of them are rather distant.
