Repent

by

I am Psivee-En. History knows me as the Defiler. I am not sure why I was given that name, but it may have been how I slaughtered many in the name of freedom. The Trehavok demanded it. The Rethavok oppressed us and would not let us live by our own laws. But we eventually failed, … Read more

Tale: Plans and Escapes

by

It took a while for Kayel to remember where and who he was. He had never used his powers like that before. In fact, the only magic-using Rethan ever was struggling to stay conscious. But Kayel had to get up and move on. If his calculations were correct, Kayel should have teleported himself inside the … Read more

Religious Groups

by

Religion is generally frowned upon in the Phoviverse, due to the knowledge of Deitics and events like the Soul Rupture. In many areas, organized religion has pretty much died out, leaving nothing but a few shared beliefs. The only races to actively worship anything are the Thanatians and the Bayvak. The Thanatians believe in a … Read more

Greetings and Kisses

by

Due to the lack of lips on many Phoviverse species, very few of them actually kiss one another. To show affection, Vrekans knock their pincers together, Banikans bash horns and many other races simply nuzzle one another.  Cassids are known to wrap their necks and tails together, although most social greetings are done in the … Read more

Genders in Panvok

by

Panvok races are weird when it comes to genders. While the majority of Panvok races generally have females that are larger than males, the Vrekans have larger males who are all-round stronger. Rethans are actually hermaphrodites, having both male and female genitalia, as were a lot of other races related to them. Bayvak are one … Read more

Tale: Containment

by

“Brother, what have they done to you?” Four of the five other Threan-types rushed round to Teekay’s side. Teekay was barely conscious, just enough to open his eyes and see vague silhouettes of his friends. “Clearly they’ve sedated him so he can’t teleport away…” Enkay sighed, gently caressing Teekay’s head. “You poor, poor thing…” “At … Read more

Tale: Imprisonment

by

“Where is Teekay?” That was the seventh time this group of five imprisoned Ksa had asked that. It was the K-Class Ksa in particular that were asking, they wanted to know where their favourite member was, but now even other Classes were asking. The guards looking after them were getting more and more worried, not … Read more

Tale: Tea with Death 6

by

“Been a while, Tenuk!” Death beamed as she descended from the ceiling, covered in blood and bits of white feather. “I thought I’d scared you off permanently.” “Oh, no, not at all!” Tenuk smiled, with more confidence than usual. “I just got caught up in mortal things. You know what it’s like, you start doing … Read more

Tale: Worried

by

“I’m worried about Arkay…” Retvik sighed as he paced up and down the kitchen, watching Elksia cook. “You’re always worried about Arkay!” Elksia smiled. She was preparing dinner today. It was supposed to be Arkay’s turn to cook, but since he wasn’t here, Elksia decided to cook her super special ‘pitsa’ meal. Wasn’t at all … Read more

Tale: Captive

by

“I have told you and the other officers three times now. Are you really going to make me repeat myself yet again?” Teekay Theanon was in quite a bit of pain. He’d been chained up since Monday, accused of causing all sorts of trouble. Which would have been fair if he had done so, but … Read more

Tale: New Lanex Dessaron Team

by

There were times when Retvik wasn’t sure how he ended up in a position and now was one of those times. He was one of the Dessaron, and he was currently in charge of the Dessaron Battle Arenas. Currently. Temporarily. The scheduling matches and keeping fans entertained was a lot of fun. The paperwork not … Read more

Tale: A General’s Retaliation

by

“WHERE THE FUCK ARE MY KSA?” Elkay roared as he charged into the sparsely guarded High General’s office. “WHAT DID YOU DO, PHOTEIANOS?” Photeianos glanced up from his desk at the angry but also rather cute-looking Threan-type standing in his doorway. “Protecting you, kid.” Elkay stomped into the room and stood at Photeianos’ desk, wings … Read more
