Fate of the Undead (WIP)

◇ As the only being to be brought back to life after a violent death, you must go forth on an adventure to right wrongs and discover the truth or suffer a bleak fate you know to be significantly worse than even dying itself.

◇ Fate of the Undead is a high-fantasy text-based interactive fiction where you choose how your highly customisable character's story plays out. Trudge through medieval, demonic, and divine realms; with or without companions to ease the way.

Customise your character’s name, gender, species, appearance, behaviour, and skills.

Choose from six unique backgrounds (deity, royalty, prodigy, criminal, dragon, and eldritch vulture).

Romance, befriend, hate, or completely ignore a range of gender-selectable companions (including the healer who saved your life, ambitious demon royalty, an isolated yet powerful being, a morbid dragon, and more).

Travel across realms as you complete quests, fulfil personal goals, and evade the grim consequences of your undead state... not all of which are external.

Major Romance Options

All of the following are gender-customisable and player-sexual. Extra romance options exist but are limited to backgrounds, chapters and/or obscure choices.

♡ The Healer - Lirrahei ♡

The one who somehow brought you back from death. On the surface they are generally calm, caring, professional, and not easily fazed except in difficult circumstances. You are this difficult circumstance. How will the two of you deal with this life-changing situation? With a soft body shape, Lirrahei is a near visual match for their academic identity, barring their tanned, slightly rough skin from days spent out in the sun. Their brown hair is purposefully neat (short and combed for m!Lirrahei, longer and tied up for f!Lirrahei), framing their brown, doelike eyes.

♡ The Royal - Ulmir(a) ♡

Ambitious demonic royalty of the Necroplane realm who appears to be charming to all yet is undoubtedly duplicitous by virtue of nature and experience. Ulmir(a) is a conventionally beautiful being of power with many connections. They have a history with the dragon MC, softening them in ways they rarely show. Keen eyes can tell they are hiding something, but what? Depicted and awely regarded as royal demonic beauty, Ulmir(a) has unblemished, smooth lilac skin and a lean body. Their cat-ish grey eyes meld well with their famously regal features; long, black hair; and dark, blood-red horns (as sharp as their own demonic teeth).

♡ The Diplomat - Kazamsu ♡ (Not Currently In Demo)

A creative dragon who travelled the realms yet was cursed for offending a deity, they hold morbid fascinations and go to great lengths to fulfill their whims. They may currently work as a diplomat for a mage tower but their sights go far beyond. They enjoy companionship but do not allow people to become too close to them. Will you be the one to gain their ungranted affections? (Appearance will be revealed when they appear in the demo.)

♡ The Isolated - Rune ♡

A demi-deity who had a troubling start to life due to the rare circumstances of their birth. They have lived in near isolation from society for many years, leaving them to behave irregularly and act against the norms and morals of the realms… The two of you have history and you are now the only one they have. Will you guide them towards fitting in, accept them for who they are, or push them further into insanity? A wild one in personality and appearance, Rune pays little attention to their messy wolf cut-like hair and their pale skin reveals their more divine and nocturnal inclinations. Their wide light blue eyes come blessed from their godly father but their sharp demonic teeth stands a reminder of their royal mother.

I sent this to another beloved if blog, but they didn't respond. I don't know if they felt that it was a awkward question.. 🥲 I'm sorry if it's a weird ask, you don't have to respond!

Also, well wishes to you author 🌸🌸

So, a MC with only a slight height difference with the ROs insists on talking into the ROs ears/ leaning closer to talk in crowds or outside home, because 'how can we hear eachother from this distance?'

There can be the reactions if other cast characters too, especially the old man

Hello there moot, let's just hope that ask only got lost or smthn. This isn't a weird ask at all too, it's very cute, thank you and well wishes to you too :D.

Now let's see their reactions (crush/not dating quite yet) stage.

Lirrahei: Finds the logic in wanting to be heard and doesn't clock any intentions. Lirrahei doesn't even question the leaning in, however they may get a little flustered depending on your tone and closeness, but will internally dismiss it unless you are quite obvious.

Even then, they will fumble and try to justify it in their head as something benign and innocent 😅

Ulmir(a): Listens intently but uses this closeness to commit your face to memory. Their eyes move from feature to feature and if questioned will fire back: 'Well how can I see you properly otherwise, from such a far distance.' Any amorous intentions on the MCs part will be noticed by Ulmir(a) and acted on in less... public settings.

While dragon MC isn't similar to Ulmir(a) in height, they can be if they acquire the human form AND I simply can't pass up on the opportunity to answer it for them. Either way, Ulmir(a) is entirely comfortable, they will lean in a little to 'hear you even better then' and will be warmly happy by the act.

Rune: Is extremely happy and eager that you willingly came closer and uses this opportunity to take in everything they can, your scent, your features, anything micro they wouldn't usually be able to catch.

Upon being told that you leaned in because 'how can we hear each other from this distance?' they will take your words as gospel, thinking your words have great wisdom to them and will lean in every time you speak to them in the future.

Rune dares not miss a thing.

Kazamsu: Being a dragon, none of the MCs are a similar height, dragon MC is the closest of course but still significantly smaller due to their stunt in growth.

Anyways assuming humanoid MC is riding them, or they are both on the same height level somehow due to Kazamsu lying down or MC standing on something next to them.

You see, Kazamsu has great hearing as dragons notoriously have, they will stare deep into your eyes, entirely brush right past your 'flimsy justification' to challenge you, 'Trying to get closer, hmm? Go on, be bold. Tell me what you want.'

What happens from there depends entirely on how you meet this challenge 👀

~~~~~

I wasn't quite sure whether the reactions for the other cast members would be you doing it to them or their reaction to you doing it to an RO but you are free to send another ask about that if you wish.

[miznie]

Tagging onto the monogamy ask I guess, will any of the ROs date other characters in the story?

Nooope. None of the characters are really interested in the others because of clashing personalities and more pressing matters.

Rune, for one, is only capable of liking the MC anyway because of their background and deep attachment.

[miznie]

If you do react asks:

How would the ROs react if they had spent a Night™️ (😏) with the MC and the next day someone walked up to them and said "Sounds like you guys had a good time last night 😏"?

Lmao this is a funny one to think about and yeah, I do answer react asks.

If the MC explicitly wants to keep it a secret then the ROs will either try to pretend it was someone else/didn't happen (Lirrahei & Kazamsu) or threaten them into changing subject/dropping it (Rune & Ulmir(a)).

Assuming this isn't the case and their relationship isn't official:

Lirrahei: Embarrased. They know that they tried to be careful and their embarrasement doubles when they think of how carried away they must have gotten despite that.

They'll either look to the MC to respond or sheepishly say yes then change the subject.

Ulmir(a): Finds it funny and is pleased that the MC may have had fun too, enough for an outsider to hear.

If MC isn't too scandalised, they'll proudly say something like "More than you can imagine," before redirecting the conversation. If MC is too scandalised they will (with a threatening smile) instantly try to use any dirt they have on the person to get them to stop talking about it or will forcefully change the conversation another way.

Kazamsu: Confused, and their expression reflects that. They're inexperienced in such matters and don't know what the other person is alluding to, plus Kazamsu would have been so caught up in the moment that they wouldn't have noticed any noises during it so wouldn't even know what the other person means by "Sounds".

MC would either have to respond for them or Kazamsu would confuse the other person into awkwardness and a 'nevermind'.

Rune's response is entirely dependent on the MC. As soon as the other person makes the comment, Rune will check MC's reaction and support/back them based on this the best way they can.

Rune is secretly delighted that people know MC is with them like that and a particularly unhinged Rune may try to use this situation to deter people and make sure everyone knows MC is unavailable (whether they really are or not).

I saw that you can be drunk in the story. So, Cast react to drunk MC acting very differently from their usual self?

Yes, it will be possible to be drunk.

How the cast reacts depends on relationship, MCs mental state, the kind of drunk the MC is and how they normally behave. So without giving too many spoilers, I'd say in most cases if they have a positive relationship:

Lirrahei would monitor your drinking, give you water, get you outside for fresh air, and try to coax you into resting. Basically they'd try to alleviate the future hangover and how drunk you are. They would be disapproving and concerned, but understanding considering what the MC has been through.

Ulmir(a) would be right there with you. If they aren't already drunk they would try their best to "catch up" with you. They would also be eager to find out more about this drunk side of you. They are definitely going to remind you of anything embarrasing you did when you are no longer drunk.

Rune would be highly protective and keeping a very close eye on you, making sure you are well and that nobody is taking advantage. They are delighted to see this side of you and will see what kinda information they can learn about you while you are inebriated 👀. If drunk MC doesn't protest against it, they may also try to isolate you to limit the amount of people who see you in this state. They would not let you out of their sight.

Kazamsu would feel wrong about seeing you in such a vulnerable state unless they know that sober you is completely fine with it. They are surprised how you "let the alcohol sway you this much" and let it get to this point. On the whole they would be amused despite it all and would attribute anything you do as the acts of a different person, keeping their opinion of you unchanged after.

All of them would let you have your fun to varying degrees but make sure you won't do anything that will put you in danger or have terrible consequences.

Thank you for the ask :D

[miznie]

but what if i just cheat on my RO can i get away with it 🥺🥺🥺

Lmao, I see you've been keeping up with the drama lately.

But on a serious note, no, there will not be an option to cheat on any of the ROs and the ROs will not cheat on you either. 😌

[miznie]

Hello. Are all ROs mono?

I'm assuming this means monogamous. Ulmir(a), Rune and Kazamsu are all strictly monogamous because of their personalities and circumstances.

Lirrahei is a bit more open to it if the player wants it, so you can have relationships with side ROs that are also open to poly (like the siren lady) while being with them. Ofc you don't have to though, you can just date Lirrahei alone.

The player can also choose to give Rune a condition that they'll only date them if its an open, poly relationship and Rune will technically accept but it will not end well for any other party in the long run 👀

[miznie]

what classes from dnd would the RO characters be :O

Lirrahei: Cleric, easiest one. They'd probably want to be a druid though.

Ulmir(a): They are a tough one, they have high charisma which suggests bard but they can't do any music whatsoever lol. Perhaps a high-charisma sorcerer.

Rune: Ranger-rogue multiclass.

Kazamsu: Warlock with bard vibes. They'd sell their soul to the right being for marginally better benefits in a heart beat if they could.
