#ScriptrixDeo's SOULSTRUNG

[scriptrixdeo]

The funny little fire man is angy. Could be at a variety of things, but it's likely whoever was unfortunate enough to get in the way of him saving his brother, Aesir, from a cult.

Arkyn Thornburn [Soulstrung @scriptrixdeo]

Arkyn is one of two twin princes of the kingdom Elkinor, an arctic land home to the race of Vulkar. He's the main character of SOULSTRUNG. He's incredibly creative and can imagine his way out of almost any problem. He has a strong desire for justice; he can be a formidable force when he needs to be (and perhaps when he doesn't). He wears his heart on his sleeve, and is quite the emotional type in general. He's also a tad... well, he has a short fuse when it comes to protecting the innocent. He has a magical sword gifted by God and he's not afraid to use it.

Athaliah Taveet [@soldierpoetkingcomic]

Athaliah is the displaced king of her city, shunned as an evil omen for her albinism, forced to hide in caves from the man who stole her throne, and plagued by visions from a god she does not understand.

When twin princes Arkyn and Aesir discover that their homeland has fallen under the influence of a wicked king, they're forced to hit the road in search of answers and a way to save their kingdom from ruin. Quickly finding out that the problem is much bigger than they’d imagined, they seek help in hopes to strike down its source. The twins’ quest takes them across the breadth of Ziel, through lands perilous and unfamiliar, where they’re met with challenges beyond their wildest imaginations—from trap-laden temples to soul-eating forests, and even a realm beyond their own reality where the keys to defeating their enemy lie in wait for their chosen wielders. Accompanied by an unexpected ally, they’re forced to unearth troubling secrets, battle nightmarish entities, and save not only their own kingdom from the influence of the enemy, but all the others, too.

⬩〘◇〙ARKYN THORBURN, THE CREATOR. . . ❨ RACE | VULKUR⬩AGE | 18⬩MALE ❩ ⬩Arkyn, one of the twin princes of Elkinor, is the trio's creative mind, able to imagine his way out of almost any problem. He's known for being a tad volatile; he can be melancholic one moment, and a manic mess the next. He has a strong desire for justice, and can be a formidable force when he needs to be (and perhaps when he doesn't). He wears his heart on his sleeve, and is quite the emotional type in general. ⬩❨ MAGIC ❩⬩ Can create temporary objects out of Soul Vapor; has perfect photographic memory; "Omnifocus" (clearly percieves everything in his FOV, rather than a small focal point); is supernaturally creative

⬩〘◇〙AESIR THORBURN, THE HEALER. . . ❨ RACE | VULKUR⬩AGE | 18⬩MALE ❩ ⬩Aesir, Arykn's twin brother, is selfless to a fault; he is the most self-sacrificing, and is willing to go through anything for anyone's sake. He's smart, hard-working, loving, honest, and most of all, forgiving. (He does try to mask this inner softie, though. And like Arkyn, he is not easy prey.) He has immense empathy for others and essentially formed a shell to protect his sanity—so while he may come off as a bit emotionless, he absolutely is not. ⬩❨ MAGIC ❩⬩ Can use his own blood to heal others; can sense the presence/absence of life; is unexplainably selfless and knowledgeable

⬩〘◇〙KAERA SPYRYTUM, THE DOVE. . . ❨ RACE | VALKIRIN⬩AGE | 19⬩FEMALE ❩ ⬩Kaera, the princess of Oraania, is a strange one; she's enigmatic, inexplicably wise, and oddly good at persuading people. She's there when she needs to be, she knows what to say, and she's always paying very close attention to her surroundings... Always. She's also truthful—sometimes to a fault, but lying is simply not in her nature. Despite all those strange qualities, however, she loves to sing and play the harp—and according to Arkyn, she is the most incredible friend a guy could ask for. ⬩❨ MAGIC ❩⬩ Can summon two ghostly clones of herself; can genuinely multitask to a ridiculous degree; is strangely persuasive and wise

SS is a story that's been floating around in my head since ~2018. My intention is to create clean, faith-inspired stories in a market dominated by content that's not very Christian friendly. It follows twin princes Arkyn and Aesir, as well as their friend Kaera, on a journey across the kingdoms of Ziel as they gather legendary artifacts—the Armor of Arkaios—in order to destroy the enemy: A man bound to an evil entity who's bent on becoming the one true king of Ziel. But he's not the only antagonist; there are four others, all of whom share the same desire for power and immortality. This story draws a lot of inspiration from things like Lord of the Rings, The Legend of Zelda, and Deltora Quest. I intend to publish it in the future. I'll be posting art of characters from SS as well as the occasional snippet. I hope you enjoy, and please spread the word amongst Christian creators!

I’m only about 300 words into the first draft of SS, but I liked this little piece of description…

Lit torches on every corner melted the snow before it could bury the garden, and firefly-filled string lights painted the shimmering floor in flickering gold.

Describing the palace gardens in Elkinor. The fireflies actually emit fire. ;) Maybe I should call them candleflies…
