The entire lore sounds like something straight out of mythology, it’s super creative! I love the idea of Lucernas just as a whole, the entire thing around that is AWESOME!!!

This will only cover the magic system, plot set up, and history (for now) and we'll talk about the characters sometime later!

History

A long long time ago there was a person called "Lucernas" who travelled the world helping others and seeking knowledge. Lucernas ascended to godhood through the virtues they obtained, and became the God of Light and Color. One of Lucernas' faithful disciples, Peiffer, who held Lucernas' virtute of "Empathy", saught to give everyone power and eternal life. The problem with Peiffer's method is that is required people to eat the souls and bodies of their fellow humans: turning them into cannibalistic creature called "Kerei". The consumption of Lucernas' magic via the souls of others made them stronger, however such a dastardly act could never be allowed nor forgiven. Peiffer using their bolstered powers faught against Lucernas and their seven remaining disciples, and the conflict only ended when the seven disciples sacrificed their souls alongside Lucernas' in order to imprison Peiffer.

Although Peiffer was sealed away, humans had already begun to corrupt their souls by eating the bodies and souls of other humans.

Kerei + Bez

Over the years Kerei began to evolve into two distinct types: those who ate souls, and those who ate bodies. If a Kerei does not eat human souls/bodies they will become weaker and have to eat more, but they CAN survive eating animal meat and souls.

Kerei have "Kerei Traits" aka things that distinctualize them from humans:

Always:

Horns

Tail

Black Sclera

Sometimes:

Pupil Shape Weirdness

Skin Weirdness/Markings

Kereis can become much more animalistic to the point of losing all sentience if they don't properly eat or interact with others.

If a Kerei eats 99 human souls and 1 Wizard soul they will become a Bez: a much more powerful and dangerous Kerei. Bezes do not risk losing sentience, nor can they be easily killed. There is a Bez High Council that militarizes other Kerei and Bez and focuses on the revival of Peiffer, but we'll talk about them later.

Wizards, Soul Shells, And Auras

To comabat the threat of Kerei humans begun to train to defend themselves. From this was born "Wizards". However the souls of Wizards were not safe: making it difficult to fight against Kerei. This started the concept of "Soul Shells": special objects that contained the Souls of Wizards and were hidden as to defend against Kerei. In order to once again strengthen their chances of defeating Kerei, Wizards began to harness their Auras.

A person's Aura is effectively a special ability or special type of magic hidden in their Soul (An Aura could be something like "Fire Control" or "Super Speed", for example.). Everyone has an Aura, but only Wizards and Witches can harness them effectively. (*Witches are not the female counterparts to Wizards, they are something else entirely that won't be talked about here). Auras can be used at will to aid in combat or other situations, but some Auras take physical tolls on the body or mind.

Wizards began the process of training new Wizards utilizing Academies: the most impressive of which being "Grimmbook Academy" (where the story takes place).

Fusion

Wizards can fuse. Like actually merge bodies and minds like they do in Steven Universe. But it's a bit different so we'll talk about it:

The effectiveness and most things about the Fusion are dictated by three relationship categories:

Affection (how much do the people fusing like eachother?)

Trust (how much do the people fusing trust eachother with important things and trust being around them?)

Respect (how much do the people fusing respect eachother's principles, lifestyle, and character in general?)

Each Fusing participant has a chart and meter showing off these categories of feelings towards the other person.

EX:

The bar at the bottom shows who has more influence over the fusion: who has more influence is subject to change while they're fused.

The higher the stats, the more cohesive the Fusion is: a Fusion with low stats will look very contrasting to itself, while a Fusion with high stats will blend perfectly with itself.

When two people fuse they become an entirely seperate and different person with their own thoughts, feelings, and memories. When two people fuse, they effectively cease to exist until they unfuse.

Lucernas, Pure Souls, And The Disciple Souls

Although Lucernas was never "truly" a god, they still possessed immense power and magic beyond anyone else and were worshipped as such. Lucernas' Soul possessed the unique ability to purify Kerei's Souls (aka kill them when amplified, and weaken them in a passsive state). A Prophecy was made that Lucernas would reincarnate around the time Peiffer would return, this person would be the "Pure Soul" tasked with defeating Peiffer once and for all. The longer Lucernas' Soul sat dormant, the more power it would accumulate.

The Pure Soul would also have to collect all of the Disciple Souls to gain their powers and to strengthen their Soul. The Disciple Souls are scattered throughout the world entrapped within sacred objects. Their weakened abilities can be used by anyone, but only the Pure Soul can bring them to their full potentials.

Red Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Volition, grants the power to enhance the Auras of those around them

Orange Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Creativity, grants the power to go into others' minds

Yellow Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Humility, grants the power to weaken others' Auras

Green Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Knowledge, grants the power to have any question answered

Blue Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Charity, grants the power to grant wishes

Purple Disciple Soul: Possess Lucernas' Curiousity, grants the power to find anything or anyone

Please do i crave social interaction

Hello please reblog this if you’re okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better

I am saying I’m emotionally dependent on him if anything bad happens to him I will be permanently scarred.

i’m not saying i’m emotionally dependent on him but if he cried i would probably have a nervous breakdown 💕😭

Holy fuck you genius. I didn’t even think about making it a rom com.

Comic Ideas that I will probably write. Warning none of these are very original ideas, just random stuff I put together last night, a combination of a bunch of ideas.

1) Superheroes!

Okay, this story is my longest running story ever. I came up with this idea when I was like seven and it’s kinda just been growing for the last couple years. This has consumed over half my life. So yeah, this was my first idea ever. Basically it’s a superhero comic with a similar world building as MHA, with super powers being a widespread phenomenon. The year is 2046, two decades after a totally made up disease not at all based on real events ravaged the world, mutating peoples DNA to give them superpowers!!! Wow how original and definitely not over done! Anyway, some of these anomalous people are under government control, and they’re less like superheroes and more like lab rats. And some of these lab rats are the main characters. I dunno how I’ve been working on this for longer than I’ve had an identity as a person and there’s still no plot….

2) Idk what this is 

Youth therapy group where they’re forced to fight to the death. Just what if danganrompa had even less appeal. But yeah, they bond and also kill each other. Probably supposed to say something about human nature but I’m not sure what.

3) this fuckinn thing

An avid demonologist attempts to summon a pacifist demon to further their studies, accidentally summons an incredibly vain angel who then attempts to divert the humans attention away from other creatures and onto them. Antics ensue. Because why the fuck not. I’m calling this Envy’s Angel, because envy is one of the seven deadly sins and also the name of the main character.

Whichever one i end up writing next, probably #3 will be significantly higher effort than the David comics because those were lazy, so I won’t be writing them until I learn how to draw properly and also learn digital art, which will take a while because my phone actually hates me.

Yes, you should :)

WOO NEW CARTOON! Lore for

The Last Reign of the Sol King

With the north islands ruled by a corrupt dynasty, a millennia long bloodline marred by illness and insanity, the council government is based among the elite academics at the renowned Institute of Magic in the country’s capital, a city known for its rich history and mysterious disappearances of students. Despite this reputation and the urban legends surrounding the prestigious school, many scholars dream of attending. And three of those students are the main focus of this story.

Meet Amelia, David and Emilee. (And yes I did choose to spell every name wrong. It was a choice, not cause im illiterate) Amelia was raised at the institute, by the institute. She’s a spell-caster. David is from a small island in the southwest. He is a scribe. And finally, Emilee is a practical apothecary mage from the far side of the mainland, past the mountains.

What the fuck did I just say, thou might be wondering? Well I’m so glad you didn’t ask, because I will now infodump.

This is the country known as the north islands. The blue square is the capital, where the institute is located. Amelia grew up there, and the story takes place there. Now you see that island that the capital is on? Go to the squiggly line (mountain range) and past that. The left X is where Emilee is from. Finally you see those little islands at the bottom left. David is from the bigger of the two. Yay, geography.

Okay as for the mage classifications! There are three mage classes, Scribe, Spell-caster and Practical.

A scribe uses a magical type of ink to paint runes, that allow them to bend the universe to their will. It is the hardest type of magic by far, and the most highly regulated.

A spell-caster or a born mage, is basically the stereotypical magic user. Using a conduit like a wand or sceptre, they can manipulate the world around them. More powerful spell-casters can use their power without a conduit.

A practical mage is a loose term for types of magic learned by most common people. These include things like apothecary (potions) alchemy (slightly different form of potions) healing, communication with spirits, divination, and animal familiars. They can be learned by pretty much anyone but are incredibly powerful in their own right.

I will be diving deeper into the details of each type, and a FUCKTON more lore and world building because this is going to need a lot more world building than my other stuff.

Yippeeee
