Screw it, hit post, I'm tired of working on this! I had this idea to attempt to catalogue my nonsense. A sort of guide or reference to point people to rather than constantly explain things and answer questions.
Feel free to do the same under that tag, otloredump.
So anyway...boop!
[b][u]Characters[/u][/b]
The Witch Queen
[spoiler]Description: Tall and thin with pale white skin, black eyes with ruby irises, and long, white hair. Wears simple clothes with a black leather coat and knee high boots. Carrie's a claymore with a crystalline blade.
Bio: Mother of the Sisters Nil
Most historical records from the Witch Queens reign were destroyed after her defeat, leaving a blank gap a few centuries long in records dating several millennia back.
Folklore passed through word of mouth claim she rose to power in the Volariden mountains and conquered the known world. Her reign supposedly lasted centuries until a coalition of thirteen leaders joined rose to defeat her.
Tales told of her power include:
- Bending minds and bodies to her will.
- A Plague Curse of undeath that blighted the land itself.
- Long winters and storms that brought weeks of darkness.
- Monsters summoned from realms beyond.
- Legions of blue eyed undead carrying weapons of enchanted ice.
- Vampiric assassins, spies, and proxy rulers.
- Living Shadows and Serpent Men.
Current Status: Awake and active.

[u]The Sisters Nil[/u]
- Four Elven daughters of the Witch Queen.
Nil of Autumn
[spoiler]Known as: Nil, Trash Witch, White Witch, and Little Witch
Description: Tall and thin with pale white skin, red eyes, and long, messy black hair. Dressed in ragged black robes and a large hat with a wide rim and a long, curved point on top. Carried a white wood staff that could be turned into a flying broom.
Bio: Autumn was born with her mother's vampirism and took to magic quickly, specializing in Blood Magic and Necromancy. She remained in the Withering Vale for centuries, watching over the land and assisting travelers who sought her out for her power to bring the dead back to life.
This was how she met Xronad and Benaiah (also known as Cool Hand Luke). After resurrecting Xronad, she decided to accompany them on their travels. The party had many adventures together until Autumn was slain by Winter.
Current Status: Dead, Lost in the Nowhere.[/spoiler]
Nil of Winter
[spoiler]Known as: Queen of the Underworld, Goddess of Death.
Description: Tall and beautiful with pale blue skin, light blue eyes, and long hair white as snow with a crown of ice. Often wore regal dresses with decorative spider and webbing motifs. Wielded a warscythe with a blade of ice.
Bio: After leaving the Vale, Winter traveled to the Underdark and built a life of luxury and status among the Drow. At some point, Not Nil slithered into Winters mind and drove her insane.
Together they killed Autumn, conquered the Underworld, and invaded Offtopic. A part of Winter began resisting Not Nils influence, so once it became strong enough, it possessed Autumns body and killed her.
Current Status: Dead, Lost in the Nowhere.[/spoiler]
Nil of Spring
[spoiler]Current Status: Unknown[/spoiler]
Nil of Summer
[spoiler]Current Status: Unkown[/spoiler]
[u]"Not Nil" (True Name Unkown)[/u]
[spoiler]Known as: Nil, The Witch Queen, Goddess of Death, The Pale Rider, Shadow Serpent, The Whispering Dark, It-That-Constricts-Reality
Description: True form unkown. Possessed Autumns body for the better part of a year.
Bio: Possessing Autumns body and posing as Nil, Not Nil gathered information on the land and its people, recruited allies, and grew in power.
Not Nil formed an alliance with three other powers of the land, becoming the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. With Virus as Pestilence, Speaker of the Deep as Famine, Toaster as War, and Not Nil as Death, the Horsemen brought chaos to Offtopic.
Eventually, Not Nil went rogue and set in motion a plan to open a gateway between realms to free itself, but was defeated by the collective might of Offtopic.
Its essence was used to forge Melinoe's blade, Nemesis.
Current Status: Is a sword.[/spoiler]
[u]Daughters of Not Nil[/u]
- Four new clones created as servants and future vessels of the imposter Nil.
Melinoe
[spoiler]Known as: Lady Death
Description: Very tall, well built woman with pale skin, dark eyes, and shoulder length black hair. She wears worn Roman legionary armor under a tattered gray cloak and wields a large, ugly sword.
Bio: Melinoe spent most of her life in the mansion, training. Of the sisters, Not Nil saw her as the weakest and often punished her to show the consequences of failure. Melinoe ran away and wandered the world for a time.
After Not Nil was defeated, Melinoe felt called to the Nowhere. Within a ruined fort, a vampiric priestess gave her the sword Nemesis, forged with the essence of Not Nil and shards from Death's warscythe. Melinoe became the new Goddess of Death.
Current Status: Angry.[/spoiler]
Scylla
[spoiler]Description: Somewhat short Sea Elf woman of average build. Solid black eyes and blue skin covered in scales with webbed hands and feet. Cropped silver hair. Wears simple clothes and leather armor with a cutlass on her belt.
Bio: Scylla was charismatic, deceptive, and skilled with a blade. She and Melinoe were very close growing up in the mansion, but drifted apart after a failed escape attempt.
Not Nil sent her to join a crew of Sea Elf pirates and recruit them to its cause. Scylla was involved in the blood wave that flooded the city and her fleet returned during the siege, but she and the Sea Elves betrayed Not Nil and joined the defenders.
Current Status: Within the city.[/spoiler]
Niw
[spoiler]Description: UwU Infected Drider. Upper torso of an Elven woman covered in black scales and writhing serpents for hair. Lower half of her body is that of a large, black spider. Her four eyes and the cracks in her scales and carapace flicker like fire.
Bio: Pre infection, Niw had no name. She was cunning, manipulative, and ambitious. Though a powerful Pyromancer, she preferred to avoid direct confrontation.
At some point she became infected with the virus and slowly succumbed to insanity. She began calling herself Niw and took residence in the sewers beneath the city, spreading the virus and building an army of abominations.
After a short battle with the people of Offtopic, Warlock Holmes captured Niw by shrinking her and placing her in a jar, but she has since escaped.
Current Status: Unknown[/spoiler]
Fourth Sister
[spoiler]Description: A Tiefling (mortal with devilish heritage). Deep green skin, yellow eyes, black hair with two short brown horns protruding from her forehead. Long, thick tail.
Bio: Last known location was in the ritual chamber of their birth. She stood up to Not Nil before vanishing in a burst of green flame.
Current Status: Unknown[/spoiler]
