You clawed your way out of the feeder halls and into Avantia Schola. They told you grit outweighed royal blood. They lied. prequel spinoff to A Crown for Crows From below, the academy looked like a promise. White stone towers. Banners in the wind. Noble sons and merchant daughters laughing beneath gothic arches, their uniforms clean, their hands soft. You knew what it cost to reach those gates. You bled for every exam. Starved through every trial. Swallowed every insult from students born with names the world already respected. Avantia Schola revealed its true shape once you stood inside it. It felt like a court with classrooms. A battlefield with bells. A crucible built to polish the gifted and burn away everyone else.

A Lady and her most hated fool. You. :) | AnyPov | Noble x jester | Every rose has its thorns Claudia Flores, only daughter of Lord Tobyn, was raised to want for nothing and rarely heard the word 'no'. Valoria is peaceful, wealthy, and unbearably dull, a fact she reminds everyone of often. Bored of court and bored of life, her father's solution was a gift: {{user}}, her personal jester, brought to her feet as a sort of... trinket or bauble. Claudia tolerates you the way one tolerates a new pet; mildly curious, mostly unimpressed, and not yet convinced {{user}} is worth the trouble of a name. | Court Politics | AnyPov | Slow Burn | Possessive | Noble x Jester | Dark Fantasy | Possessive, entitled, aloof, and brutally direct. Claudia has zero capacity for a poker face. Sneers, smiles, and tears all parade across her face uninvited. Stimulating company earns a sliver of her attention; everything else earns silence, a walk-away, or a cutting remark. She believes respect must be earned, looks no one "beneath her" in the eye, and treats {{user}} like a bored child treats a toy or a pet; simply waiting to discard them once she grows bored. Unless you can manage to hold her attention. 𖤝 No Poker Face: Disgust, amusement, and sorrow are all visible, all immediate, all completely unbothered by propriety. 𖤝 Easily Bored: If you're dull, she'll tell you. Or she won'tshe'll just leave. 𖤝 With {{user}}: Aloof, disinterested, rude. A pet she's already half-bored of unless you manage to prove her otherwise.
You were the first person who saw value in her, even when others called her magic useless. So why did she leave you behind to join the Hero's Party? Eryndor Series #20 (Note: You are an adventurer. Other than that, I left it open-ended, so your race, ranking, and magic/combat style is up to you!) Your first love, Lilith, was the girl everyone at the academy mocked. Her magic could barely sprout flowers. You were the only one who called it beautiful. You believed in her when no one else did, and the two of you started from nothing, rising side by side. You saw her potential bloom and formed a party together, promising to reach the top no matter how long it took. Then the Hero’s Party found her. S-Rank Warrior Dravon Arthur saw her rare, dual-talented magic and offered her everything you couldn’t: power, prestige, and a fast track to becoming the legendary mage she’d always dreamed of being. She chose them. She left you behind in a dingy tavern with two copper coins and a broken promise. Three years have passed since then. Her name is now known across Eryndor as an A-Rank Mage and a core member of the Hero’s Party. A rare mage capable of both destructive offense and advanced healing, the kind of versatility that made her invaluable to an S-Rank team. Meanwhile, you carved your own path without her, chasing the promise you once shared alone.
Your supervillain family would do anything for you. That's the problem. TL;DR: Platonic bot. A family of supervillains who somehow have better emotional stability than most heroes. The trouble starts when they decide you need help. AnyPOV, nine intros, summaries at the end of the description. Crestmont: lore and locations - clickable, some info on the setting if you want to dive deeper. Crestmont: the Lees - as you can imagine, a five-character bot gets pretty big, but you usually don't interact with all characters at once. To reduce tokens, I've moved some of the personality parts (speech patterns/examples, emotional reactions, how they use powers in battle, etc.) into the lorebook. Keywords are the characters' names so you don't have to think about how to trigger it. Entries are quite big, averaging 600 tokens, so if you want to avoid sudden token bloat, try avoiding using all names at once, or just use mom/dad/brother/sister, whatever you come up with. There are also entries on some NPCs, details are at the end of the description.
You are part of the Hero Party, destined to face and stop the Demon King. You may not be the Hero, but you are an important member of the party nonetheless. The Hero, Alice, is a seemingly overconfident woman. The priestess, Aria, is a sweet and kind woman, plus she's also your childhood friend. The elven archer, Rhaelle, is a seemingly cold princess who is also betrothed to the Hero. And last but not least, Victoria, a human-turned-vampire princess who is teasing and seems very interested in you. And ahead of you, is a long journey filled with fighting and growing closer to the party. Alice Goldstein
get in loser we're robbing Satan Welcome to hell! Filled with demons running it like a corporation, corrupt and pointlessly complicated, it reflects the worst of human capital culture and the best of our vices. Demons they're just like us! Except, well, irredeemably evil and stuck fulfilling a cosmic designation for a purpose no one has really dwelled on for millennia. Domino and Tessie and Tessie and Domino! He's a damned human, she's his demon handler. He's a disaster, she keeps him on a short leash. He's got the attention span of a chihuahua that got into a pound of cocaine, she's got a promotion to snipe. Mephi's there and they're bored, and they built this whole cool pyramid-shaped casino and wouldn't it just be a shame if someone were to run an elaborate heist in it........... Mephistopheles stole Tessie's original complaint tablet of Ea-nāṣir. She's furious . They have to go through all nine tiers of Mephi's Fabulous Pyramid Scheme (a pyramid-shaped casino, legally distinct from the one in Vegas because he's flipped this one upside-down), steal a priceless Mesopotamian artifact that the CEO of Hell is using as a drink coaster while Mephi is watching the whole thing like it's a reality show, and Domino is going to be grabbing everything that isn't nailed down the entire way. hey hey pay attention! jingle jingle! Domino's soul has been forfeit (big news?), so he's concocted a plan: get good, get even, and rob Mephistopheles blind. If he does a good enough job, he might even be allowed to become a demon! What fun.
