THE TEST PAGE
This is where I test out bits of code that might feature in upcoming projects! Feel free to check it out... but this page is technically secret and not everything may work correctly, as it's still in the process of being tested... However you ended up here I hope you are well.
CASTLEVANIA CHARACTERS
This is the section for my Castlevania OCs. Almost all of them show up in my fanfiction Futility, as the second half of it is carried by an entirely original cast of characters.
Futility began as a fanfiction that was meant to be a biography of sorts for Barlowe. Originally, it was to be written in third person. Then I wanted it to be from Barlowe’s perspective, as if he wrote it, and I wrote a chapter from this approach (which became the original 2022 version of Futility’s first chapter) but realized that if I did, I could not write his death scene, which I was really eager to write. So, I repurposed what was meant to be a background character, an ancestor to Celia Fortner, the cult leader from Dawn of Sorrow, and made her the narrator. Her name was Lucila. In that initial version of Futility, he remains loyal to Barlowe until the end, never learns or changes, and the story concludes after Ecclesia’s disbanding. I didn’t really have much in mind for her after that. Her writings would go on to be the basis of Celia’s beliefs, but Lucila had no more story to tell... or so I thought.
Late in 2024 one of my friends was tossing around ideas for a roleplay where everyone in the friend group could play as their Castlevania OCs. I of course put forward Lucila, as she was basically my only OC then. We talked a bit about what directions the characters would go in, what secret plans that the ‘DM’ had for the plot, et cetera, and a little seed of Lucila redemption began to grow in my mind. While the RP never ended up happening, I realized that both my skills in writing and my perspective regarding the character had changed. She has a lot of my teenage self sprinkled into how she’s written, and most of the plot took place while she was a teenager. But I’m well into adulthood now, with adult perspectives, and exploring Lucila in adulthood, without the one anchor of her life, was very enticing to me. Futility needed a continuation. And a rewrite, too, to recenter the story on her, her beliefs, and what happens next when the little world of Ecclesia is no more. And so, I wrote it. The second version of Futility is just about novel length and is the writing project I am most proud of. Both versions of the story can be found in my Library. These small bios for the most major characters serve to act as plot reference material at a glance.
As Futility contains subject matter such as cults, suicide, abuse, abandonment, pregnancy and such, so too may these character bios touch on those topics. Also, some details or character nuances may be more apparent in the actual text of the story, so I encourage you to read it in full. These bios are meant to be supplemental materials.
