So what is 'The Fae Circle'?

It's my oc fantasy universe - somewhat traditional cookie-cutter fantasy if I'm honest but I'm not looking to make anything groundbreaking. I made it for my own joy, with my own little magic systems, written alphabet and all that jazz.

What are some of the main plotlines?

There are countless stories to be made as it was originally created for people to join with their own characters, thus leaving it vague enough to incorporate as much creativity in backstories as possible - originally it started as an oc cosplay tag on musical.ly/tiktok! However, there are main important notes for the general plot:

Morior, the man with the eyepatch up there, is the god of death (or more accurately, the embodiment of death) - though for most of his existence didn't know that fact (and very few people are currently aware of it). He runs the Circle and protects those living in his forest, which is a sanctum for Fae folk and various other magically inclined creatures to live freely rather than having to glamour to hide among Humans. Morior is somewhat a tale of his own for being immortal as far as all know.

All manner of creatures gather nightly in a clearing in the center of the forest to eat, drink and be merry - some live in the forest, others just visit when they can - there are often new faces.

Morior's forest is called 'The Devil's Wood' or some variation of that by Humans due to old folk tales about him actually being the Devil. He perpetuates that to keep Humans away, scaring them if he must. The forest is actually loosely based on the stories from the Hoia Baciu forest.

In Mori's forest there are glamours in place to hide buildings and the festivities, as well as spirits of the woods who will alert him to the presence of a nearby Human. Humans can see through a glamour either using spells, hagstones (a stone with a hole worn through by the sea/a river) or occasionally by sheer dumb luck by stumbling in at a moment the glamours are weak.

Centuries ago there was a war, the Humans turned on the Fae in fear of their powers, destroying peaceful villages with iron and silver weapons. Many died and those that lived retreated to places like Morior's Circle or hid in the Human world. Thus, many creatures don't trust Humans, even if they don't necessarily hate them.

Over the years Fae folk have been forgotton by Humankind. In this modern day and age they are known as only stories. Fairytales.

All of my characters have their own complex backstories that I won't get into here. If they don't fit into a universe with your character then we can figure something out. A spell gone wrong that sends one into the others' universe may be a good place to start! --- [Morior] - [Tenera] - [Lazarus] - [Cassius] - [Loup] - [River] - [Serin] ---
