This IF sounds amazing and the characters are so wonderful. What inspired this IF/characters? I'm really intrigued. 💗💗

You want me to get into detail? Aight!

Under the cut!

From real life people, myself, experiences, and media I've had growing up, honestly.

Excluding their aesthetic, lifestyle, and the fantasy aspect of the IF, the people are based on people I know in real life, with some tweaking from me. The banter, the asshole-ness to one another, and being worried for one another. It's just y e a h, I love me a good friendship.

I've taken parts of me and people I know and put them into my characters. Of course, I added some other bits to make each of them unique, and some of the stuff relating to them come from me and my own experience at home and in school. They'll be explored in the IF, don't worry. ^^

Fantasy aspect are inspired by Dark Souls III bosses, D&D, and myth and folklore from all over. The inspiration for the soon-to-come vegetation body horror (plant gore) comes from the works of Avogado6 from Twitter. Here are some of my favorites from him! They're not that gory, don't worry. The other inspiration would come from an angsty fanfiction trope: The Hanahaki disease.

Rosedale (the country) and Delphinium (the city where the IF is in) are loosely based on four countries: France, Italy, Spain, & Portugal. I'm not going to be entirely making things accurate to either countries, because I want and love flexibility when I world build. It's also based on flower motifs and the rich and elegant vibe each country has.

The whole aesthetic for the IF is of course based on Dark Academia. I love the gothic aesthetic of it all, and it just fits Rosedale for some reason. I love me some gothic stuff, including the architecture it's just so grand and beautiful.

I'm glad you like my IF and the little characters I have, and thank you so much for the lovely ask, dear Rhea! ^^💙
