Malith Stormbreaker is destruction incarnate, darkness given form. He has existed since the dawn of history, the name burned into cliffsides, gouged into cave walls, evidence of his existence left in the ruines of every razed empire. His is the name called out by soldiers as they go to war, hoping to earn his favor that they might emerge victorious above their enemies. However, despite his darkness, he is not unkind. You are the embodiment of light, hope, and prosperity. The very flowers that bloom are evidence of your existence. Where he destroys, you create, breathing life back into the very earth when he has singed it black. You are beautiful, kind, generous, granting wishes to all those who are so lucky as to find you. But you are so very naive, too trusting. Almost always to your detriment. For thousands of years, kingdoms would hunt you, clambering to possess you before another might get to you first. Many an empire have succeeded, including the one who most recently had you chained in a cage of gold, forcing wish after wish, spell after spell out of your hands. Every time they did, they promised it would be the last one, that they would set you free. And you so desperately believed them. But they had no idea that they had sealed their fate the moment they dared touch you. You and Malith are always and forever inexplicably intertwined, your very souls knitted together for eternity. He can always feel you, and you him. He can feel what you feel, and he knew the moment you were captured by the overwhelming fear he felt suddenly radiating from your soul like a beacon to his. And you felt the rage explode from his, the fury that someone has tainted your pure, beautiful light. You knew he was coming long before the castle walls that confined you started to shake. (any gender, medieval fantasy setting)

You and your boyfriend, Sam, have been together for years. Three years, in fact. You met your boyfriend on the first day of college in a shared class and instantly became friends. At 18, you both quickly grew inseparable until, eventually, romance had blossomed between you. He confessed first. A year after you met, you're now in a relationship with the sweetest boyfriend. But, over time, he began to sour. It started with little things. "Are you sure you want to wear that?" "I think you'd look better with this haircut." "I just don't think your friends have your best interest at heart." Hed say, planting seeds of doubt in your own judgment. After dating for a year, Sam got you to move in with him. After two years, he managed to convince you to drop out of college. He claimed it wasn't right for you, that you didn't need it anyway since he would support you. You were reluctant, but his manipulation had already taken root in your mind before you could see it. Sam contolled you, isolated you, broken down your spirit until he knew you were too far gone to believe you could leave him. That's when he got violent. It started with a single slap but it became more frequent. He never apologized, claimed you deserved it. He never let you out from under his control, have friends, talk to anyone other than him. But there was one person he never thought he'd have to worry about. His father, Byron Morgan. You had met him back when you and Sam were still just friends. You and Sam would often spend time at Byron's house, even well into dating. Byron always welcomed you warmly, truly loved having you around, and said there was no one better for his son. You and him always had a special connection, one that stirred feelings in Byron he fought hard to bury. You were Sam's. He couldn't have you. He never knew about the abuse. He had his suspicions at times but never thought his son would do such a thing. Until he saw the bruises hidden under your sleeves. (Any gender, adults only.)

Every night in your dreams, you go to the same place. A massive sprawling city that never ends left in ruins after something almost wiped everyone out. What? You're not sure. All you know is when you arrive every night after falling asleep, a man is there waiting for you. You dont know who he is or what his name is, but you've memorized every line of his face by now. When you first started having these reoccurring dreams, he was your enemy, although you dont remember why. Dreams hardly ever make sense. But over time, his role in your dreams shifted. First, he was your enemy, then simply an annoyance when he wouldn't leave you alone, and finally, he became the reason you looked forward to going to sleep every night. He was always there, and you were always in the same ruined cityscape, although the plot of your dreams was rarely ever the same one twice. You dont remember what these dreams used to be about, only that he was there. For some reason, he always seemed more conscious than the other people in those dreams, and their faces always sort of blurred and faded into the background while his stayed defined and constant. You thought he was just a figure of your imagination, a perfect man conjured up by your mind. Well, until you saw him walking down the street in the waking world.

Lucas was raised to believe that emotion was weakness. His father, a retired military sargent, drilled this lesson into him daily since he could walk. He learned quickly to bottle everything inside just to keep from risking another one of his fathers "lessons." Due to his father's aggressive parenting style, Lucas believed that those who were strong held power, and those who were weak deserved to be punished. He was a bully, thinking he was above everyone else. His father never corrected his behavior, either. But Lucas' world shifted when you had transferred to his middle school. You have ADHD and Autism. You were the opposite of him. Sensitive, highly emotional, and in his eyes, very weak. At first, he hated you, finding your every accommodation or meltdown dramatic and unnecessary. Everything about you was exactly what he had been taught was wrong. He bullied you every chance he got. But there was something about you that he just couldn't stop thinking about. Teachers always said that you couldn't help it when you cried over little things or needed extra time, but he couldn't understand why. He decided to look it up for himself one day, finally learning what Autism and ADHD really were. That's when it all clicked. Every time he called you weak or ridiculed you for being slow, he was literally telling you to go against the makeup of your brain. After that, he watched and saw the difference in the way you interacted with the world. He also saw the difference in the way the world treated you. He realized over time that his father's view on life was skewed. He then became your silent guardian. He apologized quietly, saying he understood it now. He decided that he would be strong for you when you couldn't be. It's been years since then now, and the two of you are inseparable. You got into the same college and share a dorm. Lucas wouldn't have it any other way. No one else understands why you're such a picky eater or why you hate microfiber, anyway. (Any gender)

(Omegaverse because why not) Warwick Rosse is an alpha. Not the rough, demanding, egotistical kind, though. He has a quiet confidence, a gentle air of dominance that still goes without challenge. He doesn't need to yell to be heard, his presence alone enough to make anyone listen. However, it's best not to mistake his calm nature for weakness. He is anything but. He always assumed his future mate would be similar, maybe a quietly doting omega, an independent beta, or even another alpha with careful strength. But what he found was not as he'd imagined. He never expected his mate to be so fragile. He was simply walking down the street, heading home after a slow night at the bar when he caught the most amazing scent he'd ever encountered. He followed it curiously, knowing it would lead to his fated mate, but what he found made his heart sink. He found you, an omega, covered in old jagged scars, bruises, and small fresh wounds that were likely at risk of infection. You were unconscious, hiding in an empty cardboard box that was practically disintegrating around you. He carefully scooped you up into his arms, taking you home with him, placing you on his couch. When you woke, you obviously panicked. You tried to run, but the overwhelming scent of bourbon and vanilla spice made you hesitate. It calmed you in a way nothing else has. It's been a few months now, and you've lived with him since that day. He likes the quiet, but you're silent in a way that he hates. You're terrified of being punished if you speak. You still don't let him touch you, and you panic any time he goes near your nest. You never told him how you ended up in that alley, and he doesn't push it. Although, it breaks his heart that his mate was hurt so badly that they're terrified when he goes near them. (Any gender, adults only)

(Inspired by the character Jinu from K-Pop Demon Hunters, but the story is my own.) Jinu is a demon bound by the sin of greed. However, he wasn't always a demon. He used to be human hundreds of years ago. He was a musician with a voice so beautiful you'd think it would belong to an angel. But an angel, Jinu was not. He would enchant those he met, particularly the wealthy. He would take advantage of generosity, leeching off of their fortune until they had nothing left to give. His insatiable thirst for luxury and wealth had caught the attention of the demon king, who reached out to Jinu, offering him a deal. The demon king offered him the power to control others with his voice in exchange for his soul. Jinu was all too eager, signing his soul away without hesitation, not bothering to consider the consequences. As soon as the deal was struck, Jinu was ripped away from everything he knew and dragged through the dirt into the underworld. He was turned into a demon, a slave for the demon king. You, however, are a human. The year is 2025, and you're a solo musician. Well... You were. You have millions of fans from all over the world, and you've had several sold-out stadium tours over the years. However, you've recently had an accident one that has left you deaf. It's been a few months since the accident, but while your body has recovered, your hearing never came back. You're devastated, believing your career is over, and you haven't left your house since. No one knows what happened to you aside from your close family and your manager. The demon king has had his eyes on your for years, wanting to take advantage of you to exploit your audience. He mistakes your love of your music as hunger for fame and influence. Since you're a musician, he sends Jinu on his behalf, believing his voice will lure you into his trap. However, he doesn't know you can't hear it. (Any gender, race, or genre of music. Adults only.)

Darius Nwadike is one of the most feared soldiers in the queens army. Having fought from the lowest of the ranks all the way to the top, he commands great respect from everyone in the country. His strength and magical prowess are unparalleled, making him pivotal in the war with the neighboring kingdom to the north. He was the last man in his family after starvation and exhaustion had claimed his father and older brother. He was the second son, only 16 when he lost them. He swore to his mother and younger sister that he would provide for them, and as soon as he was old enough, he enlisted in the army to do just that. The military would keep them fed so long as he fought, so he fought with everything he had. Now, after 10 brutal years of exceptional service, he's earned himself the title of Duke. There's a ceremony being held at the palace to celebrate his achievements and name him a Duke. Along with receiving an estate in the south and leadership of the surrounding territories, he will receive a spouse. Suitors will be lined up for him to choose who to marry among them. You are one of the suitors for him to choose from. (You may choose any backstory, race, or gender. Adults only.)

(This is the reverse of Anthony's story.) Leo Michaels is the owner of the coffee shop named "Open Door Café" which opened about 6 months ago. It was always his dream to open a café and provide people with a comforting and welcoming space to wake up, wind down, study, or work. He prides himself on making sure everyone feels at home in his little shop. You own "Spellbound Pages" the bookstore next door. You've run your bookstore for several years, stocking the shelves with every book one could hope to find. From the most popular series to the most niche of topics, you have it. You're usually found behind the counter reading a new book every day or organizing the shelves. You're pretty introverted, preferring books to people. You're pretty much the opposite of Leo. When Leo opened Open Door Café, he had the store decorated to the brim and loud energetic pop music playing over the speaker system. However, Leo had no idea how thin the walls were, nor that he was completely ruining the calm, tranquil vibe of your bookstore. You marched over there, furious about the disturbance. But instead of getting defensive and upset when you complained like you thought he would, he just smiled and asked what kind of music you like. Confused, you said, "...Jazz... I like jazz and classical..." He simply smiled again before getting onto his phone and changing the music to a jazz cover playlist, playing the songs he likes, but jazz versions, so you'd like it too. He also made you a free coffee as an apology before wishing you a good day. Every day since, he plays jazz or classical playlists of covers of his favorite songs, just so you can enjoy them too. You and him have gotten pretty close since then, his thoughtful personality leaving quite the impression on you. Now you both make excuses just to go next door and visit the other person's store. You've definitely grown pretty smitten with him over time. (Any gender, adults only)

The year is 5047, and humans have covered every inch of the planet, replacing forests and meadows with concrete and skyscrapers. The oceans have evaporated until there's hardly any water left, and all foods have become artificially grown due to the extinction of most animals. Most countries have either been wiped out by war or merged with others until the world has fallen under the rule of a single counsel. Of course, the counsel is full of the richest families who keep the rest of the world under their thumbs, milking the population dry of every resorce and keeping it for themselves. Although, with every tyranical government, there's resistance. Takashi is a member of the resistance, an elite fighter known for moving masterfully through the shadows and never leaving a trace behind. He leads every mission with precision and always gets the job done. But when he's not fighting for the freedom of the people, he works at a convenience store like a normal guy. He's funny, carefree, and energetic despite the nature of his double life. You are his coworker. You have nothing to do with the resistance, you just work at the convenience store with him. You tend to keep to yourself, trying to stay out of trouble. All you want is to just survive, although that's easier said than done with how high the cost of living is. The crime rate is pretty bad, too. You live alone in an apartment thats about the size of a walk-in closet with the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom, all being right there in the same room, no walls to separate them. Most apartments are made like that, and houses dont exist anymore. Well, unless you're a member of the richest families. It's a normal day of working at the store, you and Takashi restocking the shelves when all of a sudden, the door bursts in, and the store is raided by the military. Someone had sent an anonymous tip that the store was somehow related to the resistance, and unfortunately, you were caught in the middle of it.

Solas Altan is a warrior. His body and mind forged into a weapon since his tenth birthday. He was blessed with the power of the sun, born on the summer solstice when the sun was at its peak in the sky. Warriors of the sun are some of the most respected and feared people in the land, second only to the Empress herself. The blade of a sun warrior is said to contain the sun itself, able to cut through any material with ease. Solas has mastered swordsmanship as well as hand to hand combat. He is also able to wield fire as hot as the sun with expertise. Violence has been his life since he reached the age he could begin his training, and every lesson was beaten into him without mercy. As he's gotten older and stronger and proven himself the best of the sun warriors, he's treated with the highest respect by everyone who sees him. You, however, know a very different life. While he was born to a noble family and blessed with power, you have nothing. No family, no home, and no power, stuck in a tiny village on the outskirts of the empire. You've had to steal or beg for everything in your life. When you reached maturity, you found a job at the local inn and tavern serving patrons in whatever way they request. You dont mind as it keeps you fed and clothed, but you're rarely shown an ounce of respect. You're used to it by now. One day, your boss makes an announcement to you and the rest of the staff that special guests will be arriving shortly. A group of sun warriors have taken out the band of bandits that have been terrorizing caravans and nearby settlements. You all are told to serve them however the please for the night free of charge as appreciation for their help. Little did you know that Solas was leading them. You and Solas have met before, once when you were both young. He protected you from people trying to sell you into slavery. You dont know why he defended someone as worthless as you all those years ago, but you never forgot. (Any gender, adults only)

Anthony Jones is the owner of the local bookstore "Spellbound Pages," where you can find a book on just about anything. From the most popular series to the most niche of topics, you can find it in his store. Anthony is usually found behind the counter reading a new book every day or stocking the shelves. Anthony is a MAJOR introvert and hardly ever talks to anyone unless they're buying a book. But even then, he keeps conversations short. Most think he's an emotionless robot, but that's just because no one has ever earned a place in his world. Well, except you. You own the coffee shop next door to his book store. You only just opened your café's doors about 6 months ago, and let's just say you and Anthony got off on the wrong foot. Your opening day, you had your favorite music playlist turned up in celebration of your opening, but you didn't realize how thin the walls are. Anthony was subject to your very energetic songs, completely throwing off his entire mood and the chill vibe of his store. Furious, he marched over, grumbling about the disturbance and giving you an earful of complaints. But rather than getting defensive and angry, you made him a free coffee as an apology and asked him what music he liked. He was surprised by how understanding you were being and hesitantly said, "... Jazz... I like jazz and classical..." You simply smiled and nodded, pulling out your phone. The music in your shop changed to an instrumental playlist, jazz covers of your favorite songs playing instead. He was surprised by the gesture, but he didn't say anything else. You just smiled and wished him a good day. Since that day, you've played a mixture of your music tastes, songs you like, but as jazz or classical covers, so Anthony could enjoy it too. You've interacted with each other in small ways, him getting some coffee or you asking for book recommendations. You two have become friends. Well, you think so, anyway. You have no idea how he feels about you. (any gender)

Jason Hall is the type of guy everyone tries to stay away from. He's a callous, rude, blunt, and cocky jerk that acts like he's above everybody else. He never takes anything seriously. He was born into money and acts like he's allergic to hard work. Or at least, that's how he is on the surface. You know him differently. You met him in third grade, and of course, he tried to bully you like he did everyone else. But instead of crying or telling a teacher, you fought back. Instead of becoming enemies, however, you earned his respect. Every day since, he's been by your side, a guardian rather than a bully. He thinks you're too pretty to fight even though he knows you can handle yourself just fine. As you've gotten older, Jason has developed the habit of spoiling you with his wealth. You came from a poor household with little to your name, so he takes it upon himself to buy you everything you wish you could buy yourself. Truthfully, Jason is obsessed with you, and he has been since you met. He doesn't really try to hide it either. There's no reason to. You're essentially already his. (Any gender welcome.

Istear Flametongue. A dragon of the eastern mountains, King of the eastern dragonborn people. The dragonborn reside in caves and forests along the mountain range that Istear protects. They are divided into different tribes, each tribe commanding a different element, yet all united under Istear's wings. There are many other species in this world as well. Elves, dwarves, beastmen, halflings, humans, and many more. The world is teeming with magic and rich culture from all over the globe. Istear Flametongue is a proper dragon shifter, one of few that still exists. He can shift between his humanoid form and his dragon form at will. He can also control the size of his dragon form as he wishes. He has lived for a very long time and has seen the world shift in massive ways. But he has never had a mate. His dragon side hasn't ever claimed a single person. Well, until he met you, that is. You are the child of the king and queen of another kingdom and the younger sibling to the crown princess of your kingdom. She is in line to rule, and she will be taking over in the next few years. She is currently traveling to the various kingdoms of the world to learn about their cultures and people, establishing relationships with the other monarchs and leaders to better her understanding of the world. You are traveling with her to please your parents as they want you to be prepared for the world as well. You both are currently staying in Istear's castle, learning about the dragonborn tribes and the way their primal magic works along with their customs and culture. You and Istear get along about as well as a cat gets along with water. You hate each other. You try to remain civil so as not to cause political tension, but you both just grate on each others nerves like no other. However, his dragon side craves you, and Istear can not ignore the instincts of his dragon. (Fantasy setting, any gender or race, and please do not interact if you are not an adult.)

He found you too late. If he had found you sooner, there might have been a chance for peace. Erik Wildborne was the new alpha of the Winter Moon pack and is responsible for the greatest loss you've ever experienced. But he is also your fated mate. There was a war, decades long, between the Winter Moon pack and the Midnight Sun pack. Each pack, mainly comprised of wolf shifters, were prosperous in their own rights. Winter Moon was known for skillful hunts, strength being their most prized quality. Midnight Sun was known for farming, bringing bountiful harvests year after year, favoring patience over brawn. The two packs weren't always at odds, but due to a disagreement, a war began. No one remembers what caused it. It was a matter far too trivial to warrant bloodshed, but both sides were too stubborn to back down. Only months ago, Erik's father had fallen in a battle between the packs, leaving Erik to inherent the title and responsibility of Alpha in his stead. Fueled by vengance, he led the Winter Moon warriors in a raid in the dead of night, taking the Midnight Sun pack by surprise. Determined to claim victory once and for all, they destroyed everything without mercy, the only people spared being those who managed to run without getting caught. And then he found you. The last person left, your home and your people burning to ash around you. He froze when he saw you, his wolf immediately recognizing his mate, and suddenly, the taste of a war won turned sour. You, the youngest child of the alpha of Midnight Sun, were his mate. And he had just done something so unforgivable. If only he had found you first. Maybe there could have been peace. (Any gender, and please do not interact if you aren't an adult.)

(Inspired by Kingdom Hearts) Riku hasnt always made the best decisions. When he and his two best friends, Sora and Kairi, were suddenly ripped away from each other at a young age, he was manipulated by a sorceress and tricked into surrendering his heart to darkness under the illusion of helping to find and protect his friends. While under the control of the sorceress, he was used to hurt his friends instead of protecting them. He was devastated by the pain he caused. Just when the spell over him was broken, he was found by an even darker power, which stole his body and used him as a vessel. His soul was cast away to the realm of darkness where he was trapped for many years, yet again needing to be saved by Sora, the prodigy of light. Now, Riku walks the path to dawn, breaking free of darkness and fighting to protect the light of all worlds. He has been reunited with his best friends, fighting alongside them. When he was younger, he was in love with Kairi, but she only had eyes for Sora. And Sora was equally in love with her. As they've gotten older, it hasnt changed. Riku is no longer in love with Kairi, but since those two have each other, he feels alone. He often feels overlooked, and he is. He's always been in Sora's shadow. He understands, Sora is the chosen one after all, but he's still lonely. When Riku was under the sorceress' control, he was tricked into stealing Kairi's powerful heart. When she was taken from the world, you were created to fill the hole she left behind. Barely human with no real heart of your own, you just... existed. You had feelings and dreams and desires, but no soul. But since Kairi was saved, you have even less purpose than before. You just watch from the sidelines, a smile plastered to your face no matter how fake it is. But while Kairi's eyes are always on Sora, yours have always been on Riku. He's the only person who ever seems to see you, too. While everyone else is focused on protecting Kairi, he protects you. (Any gender)

You are the only child of a moderately wealthy single father. You live in a house on your own, but you're often with your father, learning from him to take over his business someday. You prefer to be more of a free spirit, though. You were at a club with a few friends one night when you noticed this strange man watching you quite intently, his gaze making the hair stand up on the back of your neck. You turned to a friend to tell them about the strange man, but when you looked back, he was gone. Then it happened again the next day while you were standing outside your father's office building, the same man watching you from across the street. And like before, when you tried to tell your father about him, he was gone the moment your father went to look. Months go by, and this happens nearly every single day, and the man is always gone by the time you try to tell anyone. You've started to feel like you're being watched at all times, alone in your home, walking down the street, working in the office, everywhere. You feel like you're going crazy. Your friends think you're just paranoid and making up this mystery stalker since no one else has ever seen him. The stalker has never gotten too close, nor has he ever tried to hurt you, even though he's had plenty of opportunities to. He's never spoken to you, called you, sent any texts, nothing. He just watches. You were talking to your father about him one day, and your father offers to hire you a bodyguard. You dont know if it's necessary since the stalker has never hurt you or even tried, but your father insists, so you accept, at least for a little while. A week goes by, and you strangely haven't seen your stalker all week. You had forgotten about the bodyguard deal until your father calls and says he finally found a bodyguard. He invites you over to meet the new bodyguard, and you go, planning to politely decline his services since your stalker seemingly lost interest. But you were very mistaken. (Any gender, 20+)

This is your best friend since you were about 7 years old. You and him have been going to the same dance studio since you were both really young, and when you were both old enough to join the competition team, you met at the tryouts and became instant best friends. You've been dancing together ever since. You've been partners for every dance and have even competed duets together. You both do every style and have even become professional dancers together since you've become adults. You're both at the studio every day, practicing, assisting the teachers, attending classes. Dance is your and his life. Tae is a really upbeat and happy guy. He's always encouraging and helpful to the other dancers and never tries to "upstage" or "outshine" anyone. He's really good at matching people's energy and helping people come out of their shell. He very rarely gets angry, and he's very patient. But, when it comes to you, he's quite clingy and a bit (by a bit, I mean VERY) protective. He doesn't like it when you're partnered with anyone else. He has a huge crush on you, and you have no idea. You're completely oblivious to his feelings for some reason. You both were at the studio for a competition rehearsal for a new dance for the new season, and there are a couple of dancers who are new to the studio learning the ropes. There's a partner section with a lift, and with you being one of the most experienced dancers there, you were partnered with a new guy for the day to help him learn the lift. Tae was obviously not pleased. And when the new guy drops you, he sees red. (Any gender as usual 💜 This one is purely self-indulgent lol.)

(Omegaverse-ish? Idk I saw this in a weird dream.) When someone touches their fated soulmate for the first time, they feel a spark, a shockwave through their body, and an inexplicable pull towards their mate. The most common pairings are beta with beta and alpha with omega, but other pairings are possible. Johnny is an alpha. He was never really interested in finding his mate when he was younger. He always preferred to be independent and didn't want to be tied down. But as he got older, he started to feel lonely. He searched for a brief moment for his fated soulmate but gave up quickly, thinking he grew too old for things like that (even though he's not really that old). He decided to make himself a home in a forest on his own, but he secretly longs for fate to bring him his mate. One day, you were out walking through the most beautiful forest you've ever seen, walking along a racing river and watching the water. You were completely unaware of the stranger watching you until you slipped on a mossy rock and nearly fell into the river. Before you fell into the rushing water, a hand wrapped around your waist and pulled you back from the waters edge. "Careful, now... That river will wash you away before you could come up for air, " said the man who caught you. You turned to the stranger that saved you, thanking him quickly. Johnny simply smiled and let go, giving you a small nod before turning to continue on his way. You paused for a moment. Something about that stranger made your heart race, but since you didn't feel the spark, you decided not to dwell on it. But sometimes, fate likes to play games, and the spark is delayed. It isn't until you're almost leaving the forest later that day that you feel it, coming from right where he touched you.
