alys vailia (@reapersbayif)
I've only had Alys for a prologue and a half, but if anything happened to her, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself (oh my god so many things are going to happen to her)
Nightmare / Halsey I've trusted lies and trusted men, broke down and put myself back together again. Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters, collected the pieces and picked out a dagger
Used to the Darkness / Des Rocs Now would you pray before you twist the knife? Yeah, would you take my hand and take a life? I'm too damn young to give up on the light- I'm used to the darkness, I'm used to the darkness
Devil Inside / CRMNL We all got a little bit of devil inside, tearing you apart in the middle of the night. They could bury us alive with the things we hide
All the King's Men / The Rigs Remember when the darkness wasn't all you had to see, remember when a part of you still hoped for what could be?
Sound of War / Tommee Profitt, Fleurie Just when you think there's a settled score, the battle has been reborn. Comes swift like an avalanche, come to steal what you just got back
Gallows / Katie Garfield Let it all come crashing down, burn the castle to the ground. Hang the lies, no disguise, it's our time
Feel Something / Jaymes Young Touch me someone, I'm too young to feel so numb, numb, numb, numb. You could be the one to make me feel something, something
Jenny of Oldstones / Florence And The Machine High in the halls of the kings who are gone, Jenny would dance with her ghosts
lovely / Billie Eilish, Khalid Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near, wanna feel alive, outside I can't fight my fear. Isn't it lovely, all alone?
The Darker The Weather // The Better The Man / Missio But the darker the weather, the better the man. You can take all you want, but not who I am
Flesh and Bone / Black Math I walk alone, beside myself, nowhere to go. This bleeding heart, that's in my hands, I fell apart
In the Shadows / Amy Stroup A whisper in the darkness, in the quiet it'll grow. You try to hide it in the farthest place but everybody knows
Angel on Fire / Halsey I used to be a darling starlet, like a centerpiece, had the whole world wrapped around my ring. I flew too closely to the sun that's setting in the East and now I'm melting from my wings
Dust to Dust / Civil Wars All your acting, your thin disguise, all your perfectly delivered lines, they don't fool me, you've been lonely too long
So Far / Ólafur Arnalds So far from seeing home, I stand out here alone. Am I asking for too much? So far from being free of the past that's haunting me
#reaper’s bay#reapersbayif#oc: alys#getting back into my playlist groove#with the ultimate poor little meow meow#sure she's an assassin but she's also done nothing wrong in her life ever#music#mine

I've been wanting to post some of my MCs for IFs besides SHOH for a while, so I decided to start out with @dakotawritesif 's four amazing IFs!
Upper Left: Alina Rhys (Fallen Lights): Flirting with Florian, but Ezrah will always be her #1 boy. Loves her brother very much, and is studying magic (alchemy/elemental). Pretty cheerful, friendly, and fiercely defensive of those she cares about. Probably the most well adjusted of the MCs...FOR NOW.
Upper Right: Reina Davis (The Unseelie): Don't really know a lot about her yet, except that she appreciates her best friend, and misses her boyfriend a whole lot. Is she okay? No. But surely time will heal all wounds....right?
Bottom Left: Lyana Vailia AKA Nell van Dalen (Reaper's Bay): Pale hair, pale skin, gray eyes...her entire family is dead, and her appearance and distant demeanor makes her seem as though she's already joined them. She works for The Red Fortune, hoping his reputation will keep her from joining her sister. But when they meet, well...maybe she'll appreciate more than his protection.
Bottom Right: Elena (AKA Elly) Naess (Disenchanted): A sorcerer with a penchant for alchemy and wind magic. She did not take her fall from grace...well, gracefully. Bitter, disillusioned, and angry, she's perfectly happy to let Theo kneecap people for her, and leans on him and Viktor for support. Or maybe...leans on them for other reasons??
#should i tag everything orz#fallenlightsif#theunseelieif#reapersbayif#disenchantedif#idk how many of these i'm gonna do#but i love dakota's IFs so i thought i'd do my MC for each#my OCs

Are there any IFs you'd recommend? I have a demo hangover from yours and need to do something while I wait for Chapter 2 (begging for it)
*rubs palms*
M (@mwritesc) has recently released the demo to Cyprus and it is a gem! Her writing is mind blowing and so vivid.
@reapersbayif by @dakotawritesif ! I feel like I made my love for Striker known by now shshsh their writing truly comes to life. And they are so so nice.
@greatprotector-if ! The one word I can use to describe Cassian's writing is cozy. Like a warm hug <3
@fateunwritten-if heyyy shadow whats up haha me? just hanging out and not obsessing over ur existence haha
@stephschoices is writing a naruto IF ! also steph's art is awesome cries
@jaunefleurwrites if you want your heart squeezed and squished (in the best way) A World Without You is your jam
@zico-if Zico recently published the rewritten version of the demo and I was levitating reading it! Also how specific and abundant the customization is? awesome.
@unwilling-souls-if one name: Xander and the concept is so unique and fun like wow
@kalorphic's Novaturient. Agent X is everything to me yup
@coeluvr's Crown of Ashes and Flames. I love me some angst and drama and the opportunities for both are chefs kiss
@thegrandheist-if i love me some heists also i love the whole traveling back in time trope. it's one of my favs.
THERE'S A LOT MORE but I've truly become attached to these stories and characters and I am such a fan! Not only are they great writers but such great people! I recommend them allll
Edit: also yes I’m ready to have brainrot over wayhaven in 2 days
#other ifs#recs#yes my reviewing skills need work#i am a narrative writer not a critic or reviewer OKAY

Who would the cast in FL get along with best from your other games?
(Here's the resend!!)
Asdksjdhj I’ll answer the ask under the correct one this time!
Florian: Would get along so well with Viktor from @disenchantedif tbh. They’re both very soft and love their friends with their whole hearts, very protective at their cores.
Marcella: Tbh she’d get along well with Luci from @disenchantedif just because they have similar trauma related to their families, but Marcie escaped way sooner. I think she’d help them realize that there’s light at the end.
That or Niy from @reapersbayif simply because Niy is a pirate and therefore has a boat.
E: Surprisingly enough, Kai from @reapersbayif. Kai would kill E’s family for them to jumpstart the healing process and would try and understand E’s quirks and difficulties on a deeper level than most, I think.
Ari: Amri from @disenchantedif because she respects the integrity and understands the pain of your family not accepting who you want to become. She’d totally help them right a tell-all exposé.
Dimitri: He would beat sense into Cam from @theunseelieif with a hammer but after that they’d be good friends.
Would also get along well with Kendall from @theunseelieif because they have similar anxieties of being unloveable. They’d hate themselves with insisting the other should live themselves and not see the irony in it at all.
Orion: Has to be Kiran from @theunseelieif. Orion’s biggest fear is betrayal and Kiran would rather cut off their own arm than betray a friend. Kiran would also hug Orion, which he sorely needs.
Rowan: Mica from @reapersbayif because they’re an academic but in a much softer way than Rowan, and I think ultimately Rowan would want to protect that softness in a way Rowan themselves was never protected.
Kira: Would absolutely love Mari from @reapersbayif! Someone give Kira a gun and the game will be over in one chapter lmfao. For real though, Mari and Kira is a friendship match made in hell and they’ll wreck everyone. Mari with fae magic at their disposal? Someone call a medic.
Cier: Aub from @theunseelieif because they enjoy similar brands of chaos. That or Theo from @disenchantedif because…again, similar brands of chaos. Those three could fuck shit up.
Ilaria: Probably Josie from @theunseelieif because Josie would snap her out of her self destructive spirals and Ilaria would kill someone for her vampire bestie.

Hopping on the picrew bandwagon and am presenting my MCs for three of Dakota’s IFs.
Top Left: Alina Rhys from @fallenlightsif - is primarily an illusionist mage, and is on the Florian/Emil poly as well as the Florian/Orion poly (haven’t decided which is her ‘canon’ route though.) ((Outfit isn’t accurate but it was the closest I could get rip))
Top Right: Sana Ahmed from @disenchantedif is a nephilim with raven-coloured wings who is in love with both of her best friends, Viktor and Theodore.
Bottom Left: Juliana Coppola is also from @disenchantedif and is a siren whose gills are always visible, and shifts to have a blue and green mermaid tail and scales in water. Lucia is her ex-girlfriend, and Avery is her ‘canon' endgame boyfriend. Her primary nickname is Julia, but she’ll answer to any diminuative of her first name.
Bottom Right: Evandra Vailia is from @reapersbayif along with being the last remaining heir to House Vailia, and the rightful crown princess to the Navran throne; Evandra has also cultivated a reputation as an informant of repute over the years as well as honing her skills with a blade and pistol - although she much prefers the latter. Her sole goal in life is to avenge her family, and doesn’t give much thought to her own fate or Navra’s after everything is said and done - at least, not at first. Andra is on the Kai/M!Finn, Kai/Adrianus, and Kai/Laurie poly routes. I don’t know which will be her ‘canon’ route yet, so I’m just going to have to wait and play first to be able to decide. ((’scuse the outfit not being period accurate, the clothing options were mostly modern so I had to choose according to vibes lol.))
My Unseelie MCs will be in a separate post once I figure out names and all the routes I’ll be playing.

The demo is here. Choose your fate, heir.
Reaper's Bay Prologue is now public! Choose your job, meet a gang leader, and maybe get assassinated. Who knows? After all, it is Norwick.

your characters are always so fascinating and your plots are so compelling. what has the process been like creating this story and its lovely characters?
Thank you so much!!
It’s funny because I actually just started with the idea of a creepy little town built around the coast of Maine. For some reason it HAD to be Maine lol. I knew there would be fae from the ocean and vamps/wolves, and the rest kind of fell into place after that.
All the characters start with an idea or role; what they could contribute to the story and how they would interact with the world around them.
I actually have a couple ideas for an additional RO, possibly two, but we’ll see how you guys like the characters when they’re introduced ;) it might be another Striker situation (from @reapersbayif if any of you remember that lol).
Oh, and there was also a lot of screaming about it with @stephschoices in messages lmfao.

DEMO // Patreon // Discord
Last Updated: August 2023
You used to be a beacon of hope. Now they only know you as the failure, the Unchosen. Will you rise above them? Will you become better or far worse than they could ever imagine?
Disenchanted is an interactive fiction novel that takes place in the hidden supernatural society of the modern world.
They found you in the ashes of your home at the age of ten, surrounded by the bones of your parents. The Oracle said you were the Chosen One, destined to defeat a great evil that is yet to arrive. Arrive it does, however, in your early childhood.
They called them the Phantom, a plague on the supernatural community, a politician gone mad.
The pressure is on as you begin your education at the New York Boarding School for Arcane Arts. Yet, as the prophecies start, you fail again and again.
Cameron Fletcher does not.
They are hailed a hero, and you are nothing. Not valuable enough to remain with your foster family, not worthless enough to toss back to the mortals.
You're normal. Maybe worse than normal, what with your history. You're Unchosen.
Create your character. Customize gender, pronouns, appearance, skills, and personality.
Choose how you feel towards your peers and former loved ones.
Romance any of the ten options (one female, one male, and eight gender selectable). Poly routes are also available.
Choose your species. Options include Nephilim, Cambion, Siren, Banshee, Basilisk, Draca, or Sorcerer.
Decide on your magical specialties.
Lucia/Lucien "Luci" Rivera (Nephilim)(she/her or he/him), your ex-best friend or ex-partner. You used to live with their family before everything that happened. They ditched you when it became the popular thing to do. Are you bitter?
Penelope Eliades (Siren)(she/her), a student from the Mediterranean. She seems nice and is lovely to listen to, but she has fangs for a reason. This one shouldn't be crossed under any circumstances.
Cameron Fletcher (Sorcerer)(she/her, he/him, or they/them), the new Chosen One. Talented, charming, and everything you couldn't be. Are they actually nice or just condescending? You can't tell.
Viktor Orlov (Draca)(he/him), your best friend. The only one that stayed by your side after your disgrace, their family let you couch surf when the Riveras kicked you out.
Harlow Mitchell (Banshee)(she/they or he/they), the child of the Oracle who condemned you to a life in the supernatural world. You don't know if they're just bitter that you ended up disgracing their mother's reputation or if you just annoy them in general.
Amrita/Amrit "Amri" Singh (Nephilim)(she/her or he/him), another student at your college who comes from a long line of Nephilim on their father’s side. Set up for political office, but is generally against the idea.
Theodora/Theodore "Theo" Parker (Cambion)(she/her or he/him), they are quite possibly Cameron Fletcher's least favorite person in the world. Theo is top of their class, and many would consider them the Chosen One’s rival. They also happen to be your roommate in university.
Charlotte/Charles "Charlie" Ortiz (Basilisk)(she/her or he/him), a fellow student who works at the campus bookstore and is in a few of your classes. Very hot, very kind, and you find a dead body together. Uh oh.
Avery Monroe (Sorcerer)(she/her or he/him), the Phantom. Disappeared six years ago. Were they truly mad in their lust for power as the world claimed, or was there a reason behind their vendetta against the magical government?
??? (Wraith)(she/they or he/they), they are following you. They are in your home, in your head, and you cannot escape.
…The Horrors? You’re unsure of who they are…what they are.
*Poly Routes are Viktor/Theo, Cameron/Luci, Viktor/Luci, Cameron/Avery, Charlie/Avery, Cameron/Theo, Cameron/Viktor, ???/Harlow
