my friend told me to write down everything i knew about my story to help with consistency or whatever so here’s a beginners guide to jje i guess

☆  introduction

the story of ‘judge, jury, and executioner’ (jje for short) takes place in a world of witches and follows the main character, kory.

kory was previously a wandering witch who would go around the continent of aelerus searching for all sorts of different spells. however, since a young age she was particularly interested in spells that were intended to be offensive. while she was never a violent child herself, she adored these spells and promised to herself that she’d find very single one she could. until, this one day backfired on her. she was forced into a situation where she had to defend herself and used one of the offensive spells she knew. she didn’t intend to, but she ended up killing the person who was targeted by the spell. and given it was in a public area where several people saw, she was obligated to go court. there, it was decided instead of execution, she would be banned from finding or doing any offensive spells and would become a teacher to ‘atone’ for her crimes.

☆  the magic system

every person is born with a ability to perform magic. there are two types of spells: elemental and miscellaneous.

the elemental spells are often used for combat, but are not exclusive to it. and the miscellaneous spells are simply any other type of spells that aren’t elemental.

the elemental spells are based on the elements of: 

fire

water 

nature

metal

light

electricity

air

each person is also born with a specific element that they are especially connected to that they can easily perform the magic of. this is not to say they can’t use the other elements, because they can. anybody is able to master and use all elements, however it is incredibly difficult and it is common to stick using exclusively the element you were born with.

along with the main 7 elements, there are also 3 ‘forbidden’ elements. these are: 

time

space

blood

it’s incredibly uncommon to be born with a connection to these elements. information about them elements are actively hidden and almost completely wiped. the average person won’t even know these elements even exist.

☆ setting

set on the continent of aelerus. it’s the only proper continent on their version of earth. the rest of their planet is made up of several different islands

in this continent there are 7 regions that make it up.

each council member is supposed be in charge of each of those regions, however, the council are the council and do as they please. (so essentially not their jobs and don’t actively govern their assigned regions. unless there are court trials, they are all mandated to go to any trial when summoned)

kory is now forced to live in the region of sinclair in the capital city of the continent, zepyhir.

regions:

⭒ sinclair

main element population: fire

council member designated: icarus

climate: no consistent climate

⭒ sunnere

council member designated: reiko

climate: hot, perpetually summer

⭒ mortain

⭒ lioraen

⭒ moonfancer

council member designated: florian

⭒ quolloway

council member designated: paedyn

climate: hot and very windy

☆ ranking system

there are exams witches are able to take to be ranked either low or high class witch. it is not mandatory. though it is encouraged you become at least low class due to some places requiring you to be ranked to do certain actions. you will also get more leniency on certain things based on rank.

there is also the council, but they do not fit into this system as easily as high class and low class witches. the only real similarity is that everybody involved had to take an exam.

if ranking all ‘categories’ in terms of strength it goes as so:

judge, jury and executioner 

council

high class witches

low class witches

unranked

and let it be known, there is a large gap between each ranking.

☆ justice system 

on the continent of aelerus if you commit a crime of any sort that involves someone else being offended in any way, you are subject to attend court. depending on the severity of your crime, you are either let free or executed. (with few exceptions. kory, for example.)

during court, there will be a normal judge and normal jury similar to the real world’s court system. (and these judges and jury’s are not kalliope or juniper, they are regular people who have went to the story’s equivalent of law school / doing jury duty)

the finale verdict of whether you get executed or not is decided by any one of the 7 council members. if they decide you are to be executed, then a execution is held in the capital city by charlotte, the executioner.

court cases can last from a few months to several years. depending on how long the council member on that case takes to decide the verdict.

☆ fairies 

fairies are any creature that are not humans that have magical capabilities. in most cases they appear as animals but with alternated features and the ability to do magic. but in rare cases, they are able to appear as ‘humans’. in those cases, they loosely have the body structure of a human, in addition to a features of an animal or something else.

all fairies eventually grow a violent urge to hurt or attack whether it be humans or their fellow fairies. once they reach that point, if a witch finds the fairy, they are told to kill it immediately.

Here’s the thing tho

This raises a lot of questions cuz like...are the denimalz human sized?? So they can buy their own denimalz?? OR are the Don Pil and Ke in the video the size of denimalz we think of and they had their own denimalz made which are even smaller ??? Is it weird to just sew a tiny version of your friend? Did they make them themselves or did they have someone else make them? Who made them, then? Is there a denimalz civilation or are they the only ones?? Why are their stuffed denimalz not sentient? Do they make music videos about their denimalz pretending they can move and talk?? If they are human sized and got their own denimalz...does that mean they know about day6?? Did they buy them off of musicplaza!? Do they think it’s a weird coincidence that they can go online and buy replicas of themselves???
