After waiting years for her chance, a being of great evil returns to wreak havoc.

Characters

Dionaea Felaedri

Dionaea Felaedri, our protagonist

A creature born out of the collective fears of mankind. Dionaea is effectively immortal, unable to die though it is possible for her to be banished, removed from the realm of the living in any meaningful manner until a proper time shows itself. She is capable of and intends to grow more powerful by devouring the souls of humans, using them to develop more abilities and presence in the world.

Being a magical creature, Dionaea is not actually capable of being harmed by mundane means. Fists would sink through her, as do weapons of any normal build, no matter how heavy or sharp. However, magical equipment--weapons forged from cold iron, spells, or enchanted weaponry--are all very much capable of harming and even banishing her, should she take too great a blow.


Setting

Age of Shadows takes place in a medieval-level fantasy world with demonic creatures and magic both available in the land. The sentient creatures are anthropomorphic animals (all of them, to current knowledge), and there exist both mages and templars in the setting. Various religions and cults exist throughout the land, some worshiping gods and others worshiping demons not unlike Dionaea.

Abilities

Dionaea has so far gained the following abilities:

  • Feed: Dionaea can consume the soul of a victim and use it to grow in power. Dionaea must have physical contact with the victim when they die.
  • Shadowblend: Dionaea can turn invisible so long as the observer is not looking for anything out of the ordinary.
  • Permeable: Dionaea is a being of shadow, rather than flesh. Normal weaponry and attacks will sink into her harmlessly.
  • Impersonate: Dionaea can take the form of anyone whose soul she has consumed.
  • Feral Claws: Dionaea gains sharpened claws capable of injuring and maiming.
