Average Day in Magius: The Main Thread

Latest Post Update:

  • Finished writing Lost Things!

Welcome!

This thread is just one hell of my WoM OCs (original characters) collection. I’m attached to them, and I’d like to give them some life, so why not make a casual series for them?

In a nutshell, this is pretty much a series set in WoM’s setting. Each storyline follows a certain group of people in Magius, and the stories are told by the ‘storytellers’.


This project is a casual passion project I’ve been working on. Main storyline updates may not be consistent as I’m still struggling with it.

Also, if you scroll down at this post from the very beginning, please keep in mind that I may change story stuff a lot. (Especially if they aren’t included in the ongoing/finished storylines.)


Main Storylines

Story Simulation [FINISHED]

An introduction storyline to this entire series—following Rael Mills, the protagonist whose actions can be controlled by the reader’s choice—that leads him along with his adventures of tracking down the Dark Arts Society.

The thirteen storytellers, including myself, will bring you guys on a journey in Magius.
You might be familiar with this story’s direction.
The Minotaur and the Exiled, Aurielle Salore and Dacien, do those names ring any bells?
To us, they came from a lost and incomplete story.

Lost Things [FINISHED]

The second storyline to this entire series—following three housemates’ lives: Carson Calding, Virgil Barion, and John Salore—onto their adventures of finding Carson’s past, Virgil’s present, and John’s future. Despite their clashing backgrounds and circumstances that forced them together, they’re definitely going to find the things they had lost, for sure.

In this disordered continent, where everyone seeks to be the heroes of their own tales, there are still some rooms for smaller stories to breathe.
Past, present, and future—keep your eyes open, and see where they lead you to.

Ok, time for story rambling #1! (They won’t be numbered later so yeah, think of this as a decoy number lmao)

Each rambling would be hidden and can be read when clicked. Most of the ramblings will come in a form of me typing random shit in lists, so don’t mind my unorganized explanations.

As I’m aware that I ship a lot of characters for some reason, some ramblings may have ship implications. But at this point, no characters are planned to have romantic relationships. Although some crushes are possible if you connect the actual right dots

Regarding William and Hina + Hina's motives and stuff
  • Lemme just explain about ‘William’s men’ part I’ve written in his bio first, he basically makes connections to those people, then slowly starts to make ‘deals’ with some of them, depending on his current situation. He gets some loyal underlings through this too.

  • Most of the deals promise things that go along with the dealer’s goals, such as money, fame, etc. As for the exchange, William is aware of what the dealer is actually capable of (killing, stealing, raiding, etc.) due to the befriending part. Will the requests get gradually bigger? It depends on what William is looking for at that moment, as it varies.

  • Now speaking of Hina, she often works as a bodyguard (subject to be changed later). Although she would take any jobs within her actual limits, to get the money.

  • So yeah, Hina was involved in William’s deal several times. As Hina’s goal was pretty simple (anything for cash), William took a liking to her.

  • While Hina still had the 100% cash goal, she got employed in a guild/faction/etc. and finally has something (relating to herself) to be held in honor.

  • Although that leads to some Hina with the self-doubt™ moments.

  • As an asshole William is, he’s aware of that. And tries to weave her away from the self-doubt and the honor part.

  • How does it turn out? It partially worked, although since they basically work in different places at this point, they haven’t contacted each other that much. Although some bittersweet(???) memories are still left with both of them.

  • If you’re wondering how would they react if they see each other again. William would still retain his happy-going and casual attitude towards Hina, although he’s wary of her possible changes. But for Hina, she would still be friendly, but noticeably awkward.

(Major changes to the character's relationships/stories) Hero and Villain storyline

For now, I’ll only include the characters from Vistarian, Castlian, and Alalean squad.

Most of the characters here won’t really reunite with their original culture squads if they got different storylines.

Hero Storyline Characters: John Salore, Virgil Barion, Joseph Silver, Damien Marshall, Jacob Gold

Villain Storyline Characters: Carson Calding, Benedict Auburn, William Drake, Jess Percy, Tyler Arbor

Now the real question.

@LittleShrekSheep Arcane Adventures Webtoon.

or

@BNTarwarn Average Day in Magius Comics

for me, both

eh I don’t think comparing those is a good idea, since both are focused on different games and stories, also different levels of commitment (since ADIM is a series that I make content for in a very casual + inconsistent rate)
