WARNING /!\ CUSSING /!\ DO NOT report pls! I gave warnings! Press The Flag, press the sprite or spacebar to skip, and the name of the song is on the bottom left corner. YES U ARE ALLOWED TO REMIX AND MAKE UR OWN OC ID LOVE THAT HEHEH, the song b***hes isnt glitchin, thats how the beginning goes. Now SCROLL! U skipped 2 that song js to see huh? My Universe, Lorien, has more girls than boys, but only by about 4-5 percent. In the beginning of time when Lorien was first created, about 95% of the population were demigods and demigoddesses. They were built like humans, but had something weird added to their built to show they were a demigod (demigods and demigoddesses have powers). For example, they had a tail, a horn, weird colored (but natural) hair, weird colored eyes, sharp teeth & a pointed tongue, etc. But, as Lorien got more and more evolved, for some reason, the population of demigods and demigoddesses died down, leaving only about 25%. Researchers and scientists need (and love) to research these half-gods, so they set out a bounty for ALL living demi-gods. Catch one, and you'll be set for life. More money if it's alive. In the beginning of time, humans (which in Lorien, they call humans 'Regulars') used to worship demi-gods & goddesses, but now they treat them like absolute rubbish for no reason. Lorien is obviously the name of the Universe. They call the Earth 'Arach', the country the story is placed in is called Athena, the state is called Minerva, and the village Yako (my oc) lives in is called Serpent. Yes, all the states, countries, and cities are named after Roman Greek Gods & Goddesses. Next to the village, Serpent, lives a huge, bustling city named Olive Tree. (Athena was believed to have symbols relating to owls, serpents, and olive trees, that's why I'm naming these places with these names). You're not allowed into the city unless you are of 14 years of age, if the Catchers (the Catchers are basically the police) catch you (in this world you have to get an ID when you're a young adult, which is 14-17 years old to go places yourself, going somewhere without one is like driving without a liscense) then your parent(s)/guardian(s) can get arrested for child neglect for up to 10 years. Really ain't all that serious, but it is what it is. Countries are named after what they're known for. Aphrodite is known to have the most attractive people, Zeus is known to having the strongest people, Athena is known for having the most strategic & smart people (Athena led people into war, which definitely involves strategy), Medusa has the most LGBTQ+ people (Medusa fell in love with a blind girl after stupid Poisedon did THAT to her :( that's why I love Medusa, even though so many people regard as her evil, she isn't) and so on and so on. But, pre-teens and teens who went to OnWard Haven are ALL demigods & demigoddesses. You may think, 'oh, Demi-God Paradise! Why hasn't the Catchers shut this place down and had their fun?!' Well, laws and even some admendments in the White Pillar (The White Pillar is basically the constitution) states that 'Demi-Gods and Demi-Goddesses will deemed untouchable and therefore illegal to harm as long as the go to OnWard Haven Middle School and High School because they can prove themselves useful and not harmful to society'. There is only one OnWard High and Junior High, which is located in Aphrodite. OnWard has their own small island, with its own mini city. Only Demi-Gods & Goddesses live there. The way they have enough funding is because the tuition to pay is a LOT. I'm talking 350,000 dollars. Or 'StarPieces' as they refer to the currency. It also has an acceptance rate of only 2%, and if you don't make it past the entrance exam, no worries! Your name won't be broadcasted so that when you're sent back the Catchers get you, and your money is returned. The school will not let ANYBODY (especially Catchers) access the files of failed Demi-Gods and Goddesses who got sent back to their hometown because they failed the entrance exam, w speed. Demi-Gods and & Goddesses are smarter than the average human, better looking and stronger, which is why very famous athletes, singers, and basically any famous person has speculation if they're a Demi or not. Usually they shut thus speculation down with a "No, I'm not a Demi, but it would be cool to be one," but some some famous people like the attention, and when asked if they're a Demi, they won't say yes, but they also won't say no, when 93% of the time it's a no. There are a couple of black markets in the cities if you look in the right places. Here, there's a black market in a special sewer. Instead of reading, "APH" for Aphrodite, it reads "BM" for Black Market. No one has ever looked at a sewer and really inspected it, and even if some weird person has, they don't think much of it. In these black markets, they sell...um, some interesting things
Yako Lore: Yako Tsukasa, 13 years old (but a little later in the story turns 14), lives in a quiet village named Serpent with her twin sister, Yoko. They used to live with their Aunt and Uncle, both regular humans, but they both succumbed to illness when Yako & Yoko were only 10. They live alone now (nothing states that they can't live alone, as long as they make their own money and can support themselves, especially because they're teenagers) Yoko is a Regular, but Yako isn't. Yako speculated this when she was outside in the backyard one day when she was 7 years old, and saw a beautiful lady watching her. She was blonde, with flowers in her hair, and in a white, luscious, long haori. To this day, Yako says that she's never saw anybody more prettier than her. "Who are you?" Asked Yako. The lady seemed surprised. "You can see me?" She asked. "Yes," Yako nodded, looking around. The lady smiled and vanished. Yako has light pink eyes that she hides with contacts and a pointed tongue, whcih also i creased the self-speculation. The way Yako confirmed it was when she was 8, when talking with her friends, she saw the White Lady, as she called her (She referred to her as the White Ladt because she seemed so pure and angelic), the White Lady told Yako that her friend was lying, and she ended up being right. It was confirmed that she was a Demi-Goddess, and her power was Contacting & Using The Spirits to her advantage. So she started practicing daily and now can see and talk to spirits on command. She hasn't told Yoko because Yoko wouldn't let her leave the house. Yako has dreampt of going to OnWard ever since she was little, and wants to go in Hgih School. She has been saving forever, and only uses a small amount for stuff they actually need, like food, clothes, water, and other stuff. Yoko knows that she's saving, but she thinks that Yako is saving for an 'Emergency', so she doesn't question it. Yoko, when they are both older, wants to run away to Zeus, but hasn't told Yako. As the time passes, Yako becomes more distant, Yoko thinks it's because the death of their Aunt and Uncle, and 2/3 of it is that, 1/3 is because Yako feels guilty for keeping such a big secret like this from Yoko.
