ANIMOSUS
The Cycle of Eternal Return
ABOUT
Welcome to my OC account! It's dedicated to the ANIMOSUS project, something I've been working on since July 2016. I'm also planning to develop two RPG Maker games (ANIMISM and ANIMOSUS) in the future. In the mean time, I'm working on character designs, worldbuilding and writing the story.You will find concept art and occasional game-related screenshots here. I also use it as a general OC account in which I'll post commissions/fanart of other people's OCs.
SUMMARY
The project consists of two installments: ANIMISM (prequel) and ANIMOSUS (main story).Majority of the main characters are Aspects, magic users who are able to manipulate an aspect of reality. Everything is isolated to one large island, Empyr, the main races of which are Draconians (anthro dragons) and Therians (anthro animals). Humans are not present.After the death of the World Tree and the disappearance of their serpent god Anima in year 0 AE, Aspects began to rise along with otherworldly crystals called soulium. While proven to be powerful artifacts, soulium is also the cradle for parasitic lifeforms called demons, which trap victims in labyrinths to feed upon their dreams. A demon to rule all demons, Animus, has emerged for the sole corruption of one entity: Mei, the Aspect of Time.
