In a world similar to ours where magic is known to exist, but not particularly common, humans live together in large cities away from the dangers of the earth-bound spirits in the wilds beyond. Conjurers like you are able to commune with the spirits that live in the Otherworld, a world filled with dangerous spirits that is separated from your own world by the Veil. Spirits slip through the Veil occasionally, or they can be brought over via demonic contracts with conjurers. Both of these scenarios terrify ordinary humans who find solace in a prophecy that promises a chosen one who will strengthen the Veil, permanently sealing all spirits and magic away in the Otherworld forever.

This project is being worked on alongside ‘Dead Men’s Tales’ (a Victorian low fantasy) on deadmenstales-if.

NOOOOO I JUST MISTOOK U FOR A DIFFERENT BLOG I THOUGHT THAT IT'S YOURS BUT I'M TUMBLR STUPID SJGSAIHSH DEAR LU PUNCH MEE BUT DON'T BE DOING THESE BROKEN HEARTS 😭💞😭😭

It leaves me wonder what are YOURS unique food habits 👀

Omg I'm SUCH a clown, please excuse my sleep deprived dumbass for this "J" name ask i definitely mistook u with someone else ahhgd 😭

Dear Lu, what ROs thoughts on pineapples on pizza?>:) And what unique food habits do they have? ice cream with fries, anyone?

Well, it looks like I'm not that special to you 🥺💔

Pineapple on the pizza?!?!?!? 😱😱😱😱 I've never eaten, but according to some people I know and they've already tried it, it's good, so...

A: They are a little suspicious at first, reluctant to taste it, but after they do, they always make sure to order that particular pizza. Hmmm, about food, I don't really think there is any 😂 A doesn't really like things that are far from "normal" in relation to food habits, so they would never eat something that was too out of line.

S: They would prove open-minded but it wouldn't be something they would choose to eat on their own. It's not that they don't like the taste, it's that they prefer a Stroganoff pizza. Yes, Stroganoff pizza. In fact, they only eat foods that have sauces. They hates "dry" food.

Bo: She love pineapple pizza. She probably thinks no other flavor should exist besides this one! As for the food... well, she likes to eat broccoli with sour cream... and sometimes even puts it on pancakes.

Kyle: He only eats homemade food so If the pizza is homemade, he can taste it but I can't see him being a big fan of this flavor. As for the food... there is nothing unique about it. He just likes hot food, no matter what.

🔐 They refuse to taste pineapple pizza. As for food....well, they like to mix cold and hot. Like, a hot tea and an ice cream at the same time (The ice cream preferably has to be of the Rum flavor With raisins)

Th- the X one- the proposal

💍

So...

Dancing

It's raining and RO sees MC dancing under the rain, smiling and laughing. MC spotted them and waves, inviting to join. Reactions? (Crushing and relationship stage)

I LOVE THIS HUBBY

Crushing W would be staring with blushed cheeks and glassy eyes, taken back by the heir beauty, even covered in rainwater. they would firstly politely refuse, not wanting to disturb the moment. Relationship W would mostly do the same, for, no matter how much time they spend together, they never get enough of their sweetheart's grace. the difference is that they would join almost without protest

Both R would feel really out of place hahah they have two left feet and don't really appreciate getting soaked in rainwater. but both would join with a little persuasion but crushing R would comment "you are so better than this at me..." while relationship R would say "you never change, do you? that's what a like about you"

Crushing and Relationship C would definitely paint that moment. the first would join with small giggles, as they never did anything like this before, even more with someone they're attracted to. while the latter would run into the rain and grab the heir to a romantic kiss. the painting would be exquisite

Crushing X would feel really happy to receive an invite and join with the same emotions. they would dance enthusiastically, spinning the heir once or twice. Relationship X would be a lot more serious, grabbing the heir to slow dance, and if they've ever talked about it, propose right there

Age Rating: 17+

Glory of the Damned is a high-fantasy/romance interactive fiction made with Twine. In this game, you play as a magic user with a troubled past who joins the Selection; the capital kingdom’s competition to search for the strongest magic users in all the lands. Learn more about the illness that’s been torturing the mages and find out its cure also while planning to confront the man who ruined your life.

It’s been 100 years since the Corruption, an illness that affected magic users exclusively, started claiming the lives of many people though out Dirinha. No one knew where it came from and no cure could be found; this caused many people to give up on learning magic in fear of losing their life.

Despite this, magic was still an important element and while there are those who have given up on it, there are a few who continue to practice it. Whether it was for a noble cause, to be rewarded generously with fame and fortune or mere curiosity, magic persisted. Those brave— some would say, foolish— individuals were invited to the capital. The Kingdom of Liestrum holds a competition every 15 years to find the strongest magic users and offer them the position of Royal Mage and serve the kingdom.

Many mages join due to the fortune the kingdom offers. You, on the other hand, will be using the Selection as a way to get back to the man who destroyed your life. You’ll take everything from him, just like he did to you.

You know what’s some crazy $hit?

This fabulous bitch

She makes a shit ton of poses (like 16,000 or some crazy nonsense).  I used this lovely lady to draw so much as a teen.  Whether it was some nerdy pose for my Mary Sue as fuck OCs

or for full on fight sequences

or for tragic deaths of my OCs in the arms of a totally OOC main protagonist.  

this bitch hooked me up.  

And with the wildest, craziest stuff that you could see in your head but had no way or resources to reasonably draw like

or this

or this

DUDE!  INASNE SHIT!!  So I was using her for a pose reference and decided, you know what, I owe this bitch some cash.  Lemme dole it out for her.  BUT then, I looked and saw she only has 286 fucking patrons!!  This chick gives out free shit and spends countless hours arranging these shoots and setting this stuff up.  

I’ll fork up the cash, SenshiStock.  You’re worth it.  

Check out this amazing woman’s stuff, and get knowledged:  https://www.deviantart.com/senshistock

Welcome to The Odessa Dating Games!

After losing a bet to your roommate, you’re forced to sign up for Odessa Dates, a wildly popular dating website taking your country, Odessa, by storm.

When an announcement made by the Odessa Royal Family thrusts you into a competition for the heir’s hand in marriage, you quickly begin to realize that you’re in a lot more trouble than trying to figure out what spoon is the dessert spoon.

With rivals, romance and rituals around every corner, welcome to The Odessa Dating Games!

Hi, I’m Tandra. The Odessa Dating Games is an interactive fiction novel that I started over on the Choice of Games website. It’s been just over a year over there and I decided it was time to take the game to Tumblr!

Here’s the quick rundown of what you need to know about the game! A more detailed list is over at the forum.

Play as a man, woman, or as non-binary! Be gay, straight, bisexual or pansexual.

Romance loads of characters, including your roommate, the heir to the throne and more!

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer as you work to uncover what threatens your home country of Odessa, all while competing in a competition with loads of challenges to test your skills, strength and more. 

Create the royal of your dreams, or play as a default royal character.

Now, a more detailed look at The Odessa Dating Games:

THE RO’s

The Heir to Odessa, who can have pre determined looks, or can be custom made to your liking, right down to their hair, height, gender and more. 

The Heir’s younger sibling, Mozelle Wyman, a redhead with a love of speaking before she thinks.

Your roommate, Odi/Odanna Baxley, whom you’ve been living with for quite a while. O has tattoos, brown hair, blue eyes and is the whole reason you get into the competition in the first place. 

Lyon Powers, a tech intern in charge of keeping track of your performance while in the games. 

Jenna Young, leader of the Odessenters, a group aimed at trying to take down the Odessa Royal Family once and for all. 

And a few others that I’ll let you guys discover for yourselves!

Some questions you might have…

What was your inspiration for this game? I’ve always loved reading and playing games that involved royal families and royals! As far as games/material, I was inspired by Princess Academy by Shannon Hale, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, as well as Drag Star from COG and various other HG and COG royal inspired games.

When will this game be finished? Totally up in the air at the moment. I have a full-time job, so this is only a side hobby. I would love to have this out by 2022. 

How often do you update? Pretty randomly. There’s no set time for updates, but I always update the title on the topic on the COG forum. I’m a night owl, so they tend to come in the middle of the night haha. I will do weekly updates on here just to keep myself accountable and you guys interested!

How many chapters will this game be? At least 12.

Will there be a sequel? No, this will be a standalone novel, but as the game nears competition, I might entertain a new story set in the same world, or writing a prequel. 

A fuller FAQ list is posted on the forum topic on the COG forum website! I will eventually add the questions on the FAQ website, but I am currently holding off as to not spoil people for a little while. 

I am more active on the forums than Tumblr for now, but feel free to send questions, comments or anything like that to either place. Please reserve coding issues to the COG FORUM only, as that’s where my testing team is most active on and can help me out with those. 

I also track #the odessa dating games and #todg! I’d love to see any fanart/stories/mood boards/etc. that you guys come up with!

Without further ago, I present, The Odessa Dating Games.
