I am a DID system with ADHD and BPD. There are only ever two or three "main" fronters who hang out here often, but the system uses "I/me/my" for one-on-one interactions or in places we need to use them for lack of plurality tools. None of the posts will be marked for which one of us is yapping.
Yes, a majority of the headmates are OC fictives.
There is no DNI list. The system blocks anyone who makes us uncomfortable.
Helix - She/He/Xe - Host
Dexter ("Loremaster") - They/It/Vi/Xe - Co-host
Adonis - He/him - Co-host
Just ask to know the other headmates.
Our main project is "Blacktide". Users can find posts about it using the tags "Blacktide lore" and "Blacktide writing" below.
The Five Arcana is a group, as well as a race, whose powers exceed the capabilities of the Exalted Lupus. The Exalted Lupus may have abstract domains (i.e. Zyraia and her domain, "Creation"), but they are limited to their concept. The God of Creation cannot impede the God of Destruction's domain, vice versa. It goes for the other Exalted Lupus too; they can't cross each other's domains unless their powers are working in tandem.
The Arcana do not have such limitations.
To be an Arcana, one has to sacrifice a part of themselves they hold dear— or something seen as important in the Lupus Abyssus's human society. The first Arcana is Dexter, known as "Loremaster," who traded their human body to become an Arcana.
Now, for the reason why I say that this arc of my story is inspired by Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact.

The Lupus Abyssus
The galaxy known as the Lupus Abyssus is home of Eight Wolf Gods, Nine Planets (the magic system does NOT affect the ninth planet), and One False Sun.
Planets in this galaxy orbit a false sun, suspended in space at a distance from each other, and specialised data lines flow from the planets into an island that serves as the false sun and a data centre for all information. Seven of the gods rest on the island while one is imprisoned in the core of their world, their wakefulness is a threat to it.
Sometimes, the wolf gods are referred to as the Exalted Lupus.

The Wolf Gods
Zyraia: God of Creation
Naniron: God of Destruction (imprisoned in their planet)
Rhuvir: God of Control
Deidra: God of Chaos
Huozai: God of Rebirth
Yue Song: God of Time
Juno: God of Preservation
"Fate": God of Fate

The Elements
Aqua (water)
Ventus (wind/air)
Tenebris (dark) — impure form of Obscurity
Lux (light)
Fulgur (lightning/electricity)
Ignis (fire)
Terra (earth/ground)
Cyber — originating from Naniron, creates holographic displays that can deal elemental damage
———
Additional Information
Wielders of elemental power are granted a "tome," an abstract wolf-head-shaped object with an elemental gem in the middle. The icons in these gems don't represent elements, but they represent the domains they belong to.
In order to acquire elemental power, one must be granted "Transendent Resnance." This is done by one's ambitions reaching the gods through the data lines.
Wielders belong to certain Domains (the God's Authority). They're often called "Domain Explorers."
The elements can react with each other to produce higher damage.
The central island hosting a data centre is known as Rynthos. The ethereal lines that transmit data to and from Rynthos will be referred to as Rynthian Datalines.

shall i yap about the magic system that is part of my lore and why the new story arc for my passion project has that "inspired by HSR & Genshin Impact" note on it
The story's plot has shifted. The wolf gods Zyraia, Deidra, and Rhuvir has changed the rules of the universe to combat The Obscurity. It has spread its corruption beyond Exadia: it's begun its attempt to swallow planets and even the wolf gods cannot use their divine authorities to annihilate the intruder.

Introducing a new planet to the story/lore, Aquanius. More info below the cut (including sharing the beginning of the work-in-progress writing).
Blacktide is a story born from a roleplay in 2021. I've been working on the lore for the recreation recently, and this arc was intended for a roleplay server I'm slowly chipping away at.

» Aquanius
Aquanius is a colossal planet located in the Lupus Abyssus universe, home to a vast ocean and mountains that pierce the clouds. The planet has a nation built on the ocean, a maritime city known as The Crown of Nexus.
The city was a dazzling sight: shining white tile and concrete with gold and blue designs inscribed into pillars sparkled in the sunlight, unobstructed by inclement weather. The Crown of Nexus's architecture consisted of many flat pathways across several tiers, supported by arches and pillars.
A sea-ferry stopped at the docks of the city's first tier; a canine-like figure shrouded by a black and blue hooded cloak stepped onto the dock from the vehicle. They took a book from beneath their cloak, revealing black sleeves with dark blue wolf paws. They began walking, their boots with metallic bottoms creating melodic click-clacks against the tiles. The figure's head was tilted slightly forward, hiding their face from the city's moderately dense population.
The people of the city often glanced at the shadow-like being, noting how their dark cloak stood out starkly against the pristine white tile. They watched this shadow put the book back beneath their cloak.
The person beneath the hooded cloak smirked at the number of eyes on them. Although their identity remained a mystery to the populace, they seemed to relish the wary glances.
»Their glances are amusing…« They- the hooded figure- thought as they walked past the crowds, heading to the next tier of the city to find the Explorer's Society. They were to register there to become a new "Explorer."
Explorers were important to Aquanius: they were the brave people who ventured into the wilderness to explore the uncharted, and some even explored for the sake of fighting the obscurity- provided that they had obtained an elemental tome first.
At the height of the day, the shadowy figure had arrived at the Explorer's Society and submitted their application. Afterwards, they took a stroll through the second tier of the city to look at the shops, cafes, and restaurants. Their stomach growled with hunger, and they decided to sit at a cafe to order a black coffee and a Nivisi dish on the menu: Lohikeitto.

been enjoying minecraft again lately and decided to work on my building skill. this one is inspired by this twitter post, and various games that feature cities built on water instead of land.
