Marbles

calm

You still remember it.

Burnt into the back of your eyelids like a scar.

The orphanage.

The cold, lifeless, barren gray walls. The creaky wooden floorboards that groaned and moaned in each step. The pungent scent of ammonia. The acrid tang that lingered in the air, seeping into your pores, permeating all over your being.

It was an ever-present, unwelcome presence, thick and suffocating.

A place you used to call home.

But you escaped.

Perhaps in your new life at Launwyce Academy you could start anew, find a way to heal the invisible scars on your soul.

For now, all you can do is walk forward.

One step at a time.

Lightweaver: Chosen is an upcoming modern fantasy IF for 18+ players and older. Use of elemental powers is inspired by Avatar: The Legend of Aang/Korra.

A world where elemental deities share a fraction of their powers to their chosen, bringing upon the age of weavers; humans with the ability to manipulate the elements of their patron.

There are a lot of speculations on their existence.

But none of those mattered to you... until now.

Why?

Why were you chosen?

Play as a touch-averse customizable MC with a troubled past, male or female.

You have been chosen by a mysterious lightning deity. Will you use your newfound powers for good or evil?

A potential pet has also chosen you as their human! Will you (begrudgingly) accept them into your life or shoo them away?

How the MC deals with their trauma is entirely up to you. Let your heart and mind heal or spiral deeper into darkness.

Struggle by yourself or let people in. Either way, they will notice.

Push away or make new relationships.

Character-driven narrative and slow burn character development.

Eventually face the monster from your past, Mother.

3 completely different endings to branch into - depending on MC's good/evil alignment.

Luna/Leo Bancroft | 18 | Fire Weaver

They were the first to notice you falling.

A warm and gentle soul. But there's a certain air about them, the kind that makes them seem untouchable. It's a type of muted cheer, one that carries the tension of maintaining a persona, but perhaps not a façade.

Despite their unusual aura, they're attentive and smart, not to mention remarkably insightful.

Alice/Alec Langley | 18 | Water Weaver

They were the one who made sure you landed safely; and with flourish.

There's always an iciness to their voice, but their eyes carry something you can't pinpoint. Something soft but sharp at the same time, like a gentle warning.

If you try to deconstruct the meaning of their words, you'll realize that behind their disinterested exterior, is genuine intrigue.

They’re curious about you.

Your powers, and your story.

June/Juno Patel | 19 | Earth Weaver

The owner of the first glare you ever received in Launwyce... and it's because of an animal you just happened to cross paths with.

There's always a frown stuck to their face, always carrying an air of stubbornness and disdain. They have a certain drive that is unmatched by many; strong willed and clever in mind.

Their sharp observant eyes and cold aura give people pause, but they're fiercely protective and kind.

Surprisingly, they're easy to read, and it makes interacting with them oddly satisfying.

DEMO

Linked demo above is a very early prototype! A proof of concept. Susceptible to change. ROs are not all introduced yet.

infamous @infamous-if (as we all know) because amy is such a wonderful writer, she makes me FEEL feel (yes, i shed tears reading chapter two). the characters feel so real. always a pleasure to make edits for this if! also looking forward to @bodydoublegame.

anything mila writes, truly. i always have a hard time picking an ro because they all are amazing in their own way. also not a big sports fan but i love her stories so much i'm actually super excited for her latest if @beyondthegame. check out my fave: golden!! @milaswriting, and don't forget before dusk sets in @celestialdusks.

the exile @exilethegame i'm obsessed, i've read this one so many times!!!!! the plot is so so so good, you just have to see for yourself. the relationships between the characters (the family dynamics most of all???)

attollo @attollogame the worldbuilding, the writing, the characters??? has the best villains imo, the complexity, wow 10/10

merry crisis @merrycrisis-if this one will also have you drowning in your feelings <3

when twilight strikes @evertidings i feel like i keep repeating myself (and i am) but once again the writing? the characters? you won't be able to stop once you start reading! you're welcome <3

book two of the golden rose @anathemafiction i know i don't talk about it enough (or at all) on here but check out the first book, i can't recommend it enough!!

@disenchantedif can't wait to read from the beginning with the next update, i feel like it has the potential to become another favorite of mine + i've heard so many good things about it from a couple people with great taste!

i feel like i'm forgetting so many but these will have to do for now <3 there are other projects i'm following but i haven't had time to check out the demos so i might reblog this post in the future to update the list. <3

Reblog if you honestly have NEVER sent anon hate.

It pains me that only 14,000 people can honestly reblog this

Happy birthday to the best boy in the world 🎀💕

Treating myself like a friend always encourages me to be kinder and less critical to myself. 💛

Your impact on other people is bigger than you think. Someone still giggles when they think of that funny thing you said. Someone still smiles when they think of the compliment you gave them. Someone silently admires you. The advice you gave has made a difference for people. The support and love you've offered others has made someone's day. Your input and opinions have made someone think twice. You are not insignificant and forgotten. Your existence makes a positive difference, whether you see it or not.
