I once again ask for sloth demon design advice.

Yes again. Sory. Yes I will probably erase this one too because I feel like I am spamming in this subtedit.

Idea of sloth demons are they are the resistat to change. While they are often static if you cause one to fight that demon will never stop fighting untill its forced to stop.

Deadly Sin of Sloth however causes people to sleep eternally. This is rarely something he forces. He pulls people who fell asleap nearby into his dreamland, a paradise compareable to heaven in its bliss. By the time they realise they can still rot inside the dreamland most people have already died, their souls forever in the palm of deadly sin's hands.

My original idea was to make these demons a mix of sheep and catterpilars, however that gotten reactions like "I have no idea what I am looking at" so any ideas on what a creature like this could look like would be appreciated.

OC Bio, Vampires.

OC Bio clearly standing for OC Biology. What else was it suposed to be biography?

Vampires are made from one type of cells, these cells are called Blight Cells and are capable of performing everything a multi-celled organism does by itself.

Blight cells are able to breath, smell, taste, see, harden into bones, soften into flesh, retain information and memories, mitosis, digest etc etc.

Blight cells need a constant flow of essence, a magical substence that makes soul but can also be found in human blood, to stay active. If it stops getting essence blight cells will start crystlizing and minimizing all activity. Its unclear how long blight cells can survive in this state.

Pure Blight Cells are very rare, as only the first vampire had these cells. While pure cells were made from human heart muscle cells, in order to intruduce genetic diversity and not create anyone as strong as her, first vampire dialuted the Blight cells with animal blood while creating her offsprings. These offsprings eventually become the first of each type of vampire.

There are 4 types of vampires and 3 tiers of each. The 4 types are butterflies, leeches, mosquitos and bats. Butterflies grow large wings and amtenast, their tounge transforms into a prosbocis and their eyes become bug like. Leeches grow leech like tendrills with sharp teeth that can consume blood. Mosquitos grow small wings that scientificly shouldnt allow them to fly, but they fly anyways; their body transforms to an exoskeleton and they have probocises built in their claw like hands. Bats, (I am gonna be so real with you just imagine a generic vampire with actual bat wings.)

Tier 1 vampires, known as 'One Veined' Vampires, only have their heart made from blight cells. Rest of their body is what they were before the transformation. Blight cells slowly replace the heart over a long period of time, then body mutates to adjust itself to collect more blood.

Tier 2 vampires, 'Two Veined', are late stage versions of One Veined vampires. Their bodies have heavily mutated and resemble the animal their vampire type is based on. More of their body has been replaced by blight cells and they no longer have blood left in their veins.

Tier 3 vampires are both known as 'Three Veined' and 'Noble Blooded' vampires. These were created by the first vampire and their entier body is made from blight cells. Noble vampires were each made for a purpouse. Butterfly noble to terraform, Leech noble to mutate, Mosquito noble to kill, Bat noble to convert.

Tier 4 is the First Vampire herself. Also known as the Mother, first vampire lacks a need to consume blood. She is the only vampire that have pure human cells. Her body never stops mitosis, growing ever larger. Spreading bellow the land, rooting her blight to earth itself.

How would you reveal the secret of a character to the other?

Two of my characters are teenagers that investigate supernatural things. Philip is basicly a coffee adicted magic nerd that has been finding old folktale and abnormal activity and investigate it. Yui is a theater kid that tries way too hard to act normal and has a special interest in demons.

Yui is sharing a body with a demon, has been since both the demon and her have been literal infants. Its not quite a possesion as she have prety much full control over her body. Her intrest in demons cone from a place of wanting to understand her stiation and herself as an extention better. She is deadly afraid of other people learning, as her mother tried to cut her throat on mere suspition of this.

I want Philip to eventually learn Yui's secret, and I got a few ideas on how this could happen. Which one is best? Do you have any sugestions?

A) Yui just reveals it.

My least favorite idea in here, and its prety self explanatory. I am not sure if Yui would even do this, even if its after literal years.

B) Yui has to save Philip

Set up, duo are actively looking for a demon, something Yui have pushed for while Philip was hesitant about, which would be the oposite of their usual dynamic. To their misfortune they sucseed and the demon is the one hunting them now. And just when Philip is about to bite the dust Yui manages to save him, revealing her stiation in the process. This is the one I am leaning towards.

Ok uhh, I had a thrid thing but my brain has stoped thinking halfway thro writing, idea is basicly Philip manages to figure it out by himself.

Which sounds... better? Or idk if you have a better sugestion.

Angel rework.

This will be my last post about world or oc building for a while because I am getting genuently tired of this.

Angels, I call them shades in my world but that doesnt matter much so I wont refer them as such.

Originally I planed 7 difirent arch angels each coresponding to a virtue and layer of hell they woukd reign over (as hell is a prison and filtration station of sin in my world). However, I didnt realized the amount of work that would be for characters that by their design can only be in the background of most stories.

This is the new idea I have, halve the amount. Make one that would keep an eye on hell, one that would do things in will of gods, one that would focus on information and maybe something else too. This is because my already concepted 3 Arch angels fit nicely to these 3 roles. I think I will divide the virtues between the remaining angels.

Question/need feedback, is the downsizing idea good? Or should I march forward with 7 arch angels.

Need help, demons of gloom

I understand gloom isnt usually one pf the deadly sins, but I ended up adding it to my world and now I need to actually design their demons.

The sin of gloom is to stop seeing light of hope. To stop asuming things will get better, to stop trying and to be drowned in the mental darkness.

My current idea for gloom demons is a small fish like thing made from salty water, exept for its eyes or eye. Indivitually they are weak, but misery loves company; they travel in packs (or schools I guess). They can also merge their fluid bodies to to become stronger.

I HAVE NO IDEAS FOR THE DEADLY SIN OF GLOOM.

Is my concept good? What could I do for the deadly sins design?

Weapon of Mass Destruction, Gem of Wrath

Gem of Wrath was a weapon created from the soul of a soilder with the help of The Deadly Sin Of Wrath Ira. Soul was pulled out of the body, ignited with rage and hatred was captured inside a cage of sand that very fast turned into glass.

Gem of Wrath, once wielded will transform into a weapon most suitable to wielder. As wielder uses the gem it will start to spread around the wielder, transforming itself to armor thats nearly impenatrable. The agony this proces cause is madening.

A single soilder with the Gem was enough to destroy entier armies. Any damage done to wielder makes them stronger. There is nearly no way to stop or control the wielder. Not even wielder can control themselves.

Original wielder of the Gem has killed over 2.500.000 people indiscriminatly. During their 20 year of wielding the shard they didnt eat, drank, sleep or stoped in any way untill life itself abandoned them. The gem never got wielded by anyone for more then 10 minutes after getting recovered from their mangled corpse.

The Gems location is curently unknown. After the Rains of Ash the country that was keeping the shard no longer exists.

Could I get feedback on this design?

Meant to be the deadly sin of glutony, and I am increasingly less pleased with my initial idea to make gluttony demons bird like. He is meant to be a vulture which, might be TOO obvious for its good.

And yeah it have a secondry mouth on the stomach that throws out acidic remaints of what it eats, keeping him always hungry.

I need some feedback on my classes

I am trying to develop these furter, I am yet to put a solid in universe reason these exist (might not even make this a canon thing)

  1. Fighters: Melee atackers focused in close ranged weaponary and hand to hand combat

  2. Rangers: Ranged atackers that focus on taking down targets from large distances.

  3. Rogues: Fast and stealthy atackers tjat focus on not being noticed.

  4. Knights: Defensive and protective guardians. Generally slower due to their armors.

  5. Mages: Magic users that gained power thro a contract with a shade (basicly angel) or knowledge

  6. Clerics: Devoted folowers to divine gods, granted magic by them. Mostly supportive and healers.

  7. Beast Masters: Friends of the mystic creatures, chaneling magic of their familiars.

  8. Artificers: Thro alchemy and science creates gadgets to be used.

  9. Witches: Gained magic thro demonic deals, power with drawbacks.

Are these classes good? Am I missing any roles like last time? Could I impruve this lineup in any way?

Could I get some feedback on the story I am not quite certain about continuing?

The storys name is "Pupa". It follows the inner child of a woman named Basil who due to years of traumatic experiences and alchol abuse has been damaged to the point of gettşng reduced to a fragment of her former self, not even being able to recall her name anymore.

Basil's inner child (who I will just call Pupa from this point) is "rescued" from Basil's subcountiousness by a mysterious mental entity that calls herself Pandora, and sends Pupa thro an Alice in the Wonderland style adventure thro and eventually out of her mind to meet Pandora herself.

Pupa's journey takes her thro woods that extend over the skies, across an ocean that a lot of people are trying to pass but must wont and into a town. Each paraleling a part of Basil's life. Pupa will regain her memories and form, unsure if she is actually the person that these memories imply she is.

Lastly Pupa descends to Pandora's realm, in which she tricks Pupa to give her a form and teaches Pupa of something left ambigious and that kinda finally breaks her after all of her journey, and allows Pandora to mold her into what she calls a Moth.

I am not sure if I will continue the story because

  1. I am not sure if my ideas are good, espatially the final part of Pandora's realm

  2. I am not sure if I can write it till the end. Even the story skeleton I have is too long

  3. I am not sure if people will even give a shit about it. I know it sounds silly but I just, dont want to start a project with exitement only to slowly become numb and emotionally spent over the fact nobody cares about it and I have wasted all of my time building this thing again. It hurts so much each time.

I dont know how to end this so... toughts?

Need some help, creating classes.

I am in proccess of creating the classes for my setting and I would love to get feedback on my ideas.

First because this matters I think, magic is something humans are inheritly able to use by their nature. However doing so is like swimming, do it wrong or do it without learning and you will drown. The way you learn how to use magic is the thing that decides your class.

Non magic classes

  1. Fighter. Melee atackers that rarely use magic.

  2. Ranger. Ranged atackers that rarely use magic.

  3. Rogue. Fast and stealthy atackers.

Artificer. Creates and uses gadgets to fight (can be magic)

Magic classes

  1. Psychic. Magic users with ability to use mental magic.

  2. Bard. Magic users with ability to chanel magic with instruments.

  3. Alchemist. Magic users that focus on altering materials.

  4. Shadowcaster. Magic users capable of manuplating shadows

  5. Cleric. Divine folowers that obtained magic from gods (magic type vary)

  6. Beastmaster. People chanel magic from beasts and command animals. (magic type vary)

  7. Witch. People gained magic thro demonic deals. (magic type vary)

Thats it. I know its not good as is, its more of a foundation. I added too many magic classes and I am not sure what ı can add for non magic that wont boil down to basic things.

I think I added too much magic classes because no4-7 can be boiled down to angelic magic

Need feedback, the leech vampire

This is the prototype of my leech vampire, one of the 4 types of vampires that exist in my world.

Their bodies strech far, able to reach up to 3~10 times of their lenght. Their bodies are made from the same strechy material, leaving their only actual organ the heart exposed. This heart have veins atached to the strechy material, and is the very core of the vampire.

Leeches are able to store samples from organic materials whitin their flesh, they use this to create mutegenic coctails to mutate animals and sometimes humans and even other vampires.

I need to know if my concept and design is good. Any feedback will be apiritiated.

I need specialties for my vampire subraces

In my world there are 4 branches of vampires, Butterflies, Mosquitos, Leeches and Bats with all of them being created by the Witch of Blood.

Witch created every subrace with a purpose. Butterflies focus on terraforming (with plant and spreading based specialties) and Bats focus on converting humans (with a downright cult).

Isue is I am not sure what to give Mosquitos and Leeches. I am thinking maybe leeches could focus on turning animals but I am not sure.

Any sugestions?
