shepherds of haven achievement spoilers

the mc in this game is by far my favourite, cause if we look at her—my specific mc—as a person from the story, she's just this random girl no one knew of, completely unknown, with nothing to her name, no background whatsoever, shows up at the heart of the continent one day and keeps single handedly achieving impossible feats.

The First Faceless Lord: Destroyed Blaphemel, the Seducer, and eradicate its cult.

Eclipse: Uncovered the true nature of Black Sun.

Guerilla Warfare: Raided the Black Sun factory and blew up the supply of the drug.

To Sleep, Perchance to Dream: Successfully broke out of Quiial's nightmarish illusion.

The Third Faceless Lord: Destroyed Quiial the Dreamer-Eater and freed the Mages and the city of Capra.

Dragonslayer: Killed a wyvern in gladiator combat.

The Fifth Faceless Lord: Destroyed Jarkyth, the Blood-Drinker, and saved Blest from the insidious grasp of a possessed Hierophant.

Secrets of the Swamp: Uncovered the ugly truths hidden in Wallmire.

The Song of the Realm: Obtained the landsense, a connection to the land itself, through reviving Quel-Qanaeon, the great heartwood tree of Haven.

Not even mentioning all the powerful figures she recruited.

she is the embodiment of the word aura fr, the mc of mcs (well the mcs i've played at least)

—

"Hero of Haven."

"I could kiss you right now, you god-sent Shepherd," he murmurs. You're so blinded you can't even see his face, or tell if he's smiling. "You did it—you did it! When we return, I'll make sure they sing your name throughout the mountains, across the very peaks. Everyone will know you, generation after generation. They'll tell stories about you over their firesides. You've done it. You've saved my people."

—

"You are our kithma, our light-bringer, our Godchild, our speaker."

—

"Ilvos," the Elf answers with a mysterious smile. "It means Champion of Light, or the Light that Burns Eternal. I suspect they'll be extending an offer of alliance to you specifically, and perhaps to the Shepherds as well."

"This, we offer to you, Ilvos," Angant Hainn proclaims, looking deadly serious as his orange eyes bore into yours. "For you are the greatest friend to our people since the days of Saraneth. You granted us a home, renewed life; you have saved our people."

—

"They're already calling you eldarien, friend of the Elves, and Quel-Qanaeon itself named you aerlinorn, tree-friend, sword of the land, guardian and steward of the realm itself."

and more!

it's so fun to imagine how she's viewed through the people's eyes. the story?????? 10/10 i can't even—

it's so brilliant in every way and just, leave me in awe?????? everything is so breathtaking i can't help but want more, the romance is a fun little aspect, i find myself looking forward to her missions/adventures more because they are so fun and cool and the creativity went in them is so!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been wondering this for a while but never thought to ask until now?? Are Halek or Croelle jealous types? Whether in a relationship or the crushing stage?

Halek: not very jealous in a crushing stage, average level of jealousy in a relationship. He won’t usually seem jealous or act perturbed in a relationship because he trusts MC and feels like if he were to get jealous, that would be some sort of insecurity or doubt on his part... but he’s only human too and can be a bit protective/sulky in certain cases! Mostly he’s easygoing and laidback, but he won’t hesitate to put someone in their place if they push too far!

Croelle: he’s EXTREMELY jealous and possessive. He won’t hesitate to fuck someone up if they’re getting a little too close to MC and pissing him off. If you even look at MC the wrong way he’s gonna kill u

Shepherds of Haven - A Dark Fantasy Interactive Fiction Game

You are a Mage living in a world where magic is outlawed and your people—those possessing supernatural powers—are oppressed and reviled. The world is ruled by humans who believe in science, technology, and industry: at best, you and your kind are nothing more than a fairytale, and at worst, you are the state’s greatest threat. 

Thus, using magic has been illegal for centuries…

But then the demons return.

After years of persecution, you are suddenly offered an opportunity to use your powers for good: demons are once again troubling the realm after centuries of absence, and the world needs fighters like you to protect the population from their invasion. Guns and bullets do no good against monsters pulled from primeval nightmares; only your people and your supernatural powers have the ability to fight fire with fire. 

So you join the Shepherds: a new order of elite heroes and fighters that, until very recently, the world feared more than the demons themselves. As a Shepherd, you’ll solve magical crimes, slay demons to protect the citizens of Haven, and build your reputation throughout the capital. Explore the world of Blest, recruit allies and factions to join the Shepherds’ cause, find romance and companionship, investigate mysteries, lead rebellions and exorcisms, and uncover answers to the crises plaguing the world. Where are the demons coming from? Where have the gods or God gone, if they ever existed? Who are you, really? 

And will you be the world’s true savior… or will you be its ultimate downfall?

Would Avina and Seven have dated in middle school if MC didn't exist? Better question would be whether they'd be as close if MC didn't exist?

seven lawless fr so funny "i look at you and i feel nothing" but proceeds to keep his ex's damn tattoo 3 years after the break up, write a whole song about his ex in 1 night after those 3 years, which was so good it became the band's most ground breaking song AND scored them a career changing spot on the botb tour, and i haven't even mentioned these

if this is how he is when he claims he's indifferent to her, just imagine how much worse he'd be when he stops pretending, like, buddy
