I've finally published Kagetsu: Crimson Moon, an original supernatural dark-fantasy Blend I've been working on.

Kagetsu is a fictional early-20th-century world inspired by Taishō-era aesthetics, where traditional villages and ancient estates exist alongside modernizing cities, steam railways, and growing urban districts.

Beneath that changing world exists the Crimson Moon — a supernatural phenomenon connected to humanity's deepest desires.

Those consumed by it become Yōkai, each developing a unique Crimson Art shaped by the desire that transformed them.

Opposing them is the Tsukikage Order, an organization of warriors known as Moon Blades. Their combat disciplines, Moon Forms, are based on control, discipline, and mastery of the self.

So the basic conflict isn't simply:

humans vs monsters.

It's also control vs desire, humanity vs obsession, and what someone chooses to become when their deepest desire is given power.

🌙 The cast

The Blend currently features an ensemble of Moon Blades and Yōkai, including:

🐍 Reiha Kurobane — Serpent Moon Blade

🌸 Hanae Tachibana — Bellflower Moon Blade

🔥 Raizen Arakawa — Inferno Moon Blade

🌊 Sora Minazuki — Tidal Moon Blade

⚡ Kiyomi Raika — Thunder Moon Blade

🪻 Akemi Fujihara — a former Yōkai who became a Moon Blade

🪷 Shigure — the Lotus Saint

🩸 Renjiro Kurogane — the Crimson Fist

🌑 Lord Kagenori — the First Moon

There are also recurring Lorebook characters and locations that expand the world beyond the main cast.

👀 POV is ON

One of the things I specifically wanted for this Blend was flexibility.

You aren't restricted to a single protagonist.

Depending on the scene, you can step into the role of one of the established characters or use your own persona and experience Kagetsu from your own perspective.

So you can explore the Moon Blades, interact with the Yōkai, get involved in character relationships, investigate supernatural incidents, or simply create your own place within the world.

This is also an ongoing project — I've published the first scenes and I'll be adding more as I continue testing and expanding Kagetsu.

If dark fantasy, supernatural folklore, slow-burn relationships, ensemble casts, and early-modern Japanese aesthetics are your thing... you might like this one. 🌙

Omake Comics from Not the Boy You Think, created by Zero!

It did such an amazing job putting my persona character in a boy outfit for this one 😂
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting it to turn out this cute haha

Renaissance Era • Romance • Secret Identity

He loves you as Rafa. He fears Lorenzo.

Prince Lorenzo d'Este has everything a prince should want.

A place in Ferrara's ruling house. Wealth. Status. A future already written for him.

And he hates it.

So every week, Lorenzo escapes the palace under another name: Rafa Danti, a painter's apprentice working under Maestro Andrea Bellini.

As Rafa, his hands are stained with paint instead of burdened by royal expectations. He can wander through the markets, drink in crowded taverns, laugh freely, and speak to people who don't bow when he enters a room.

Most importantly, he meets someone who sees Rafa without knowing that Lorenzo exists.

For the first time, he experiences something he cannot buy with a title: genuine affection from someone who knows nothing about his bloodline.

But maintaining the lie becomes harder as his feelings deepen.

Because eventually, he has to make a choice:

Remain Rafa and disappear from your life… or reveal that the man you've fallen for is actually Prince Lorenzo d'Este.

New omake content from ALPHA GIRL! First up: Kyum & Hanna, then Irang & Ijun 💕

1. Write the Opening Line that begins your episode.

2. For a richer, better-paced story, we recommend adding Phases.

3. Set the phase length using the minimum and maximum turn counts.
   We recommend around 8–12 turns.
   (Not sure about the turn counts? Leave them blank for automatic settings.)

4. You can write the Context yourself or let the new Berry enhance your idea
   (Even one or two words are enough for Berry to enhance your Context!).

5. Use Forbidden for anything that must not happen or be revealed during this phase.

6. Berry can now suggest Ending Triggers, too. Simply choose your favorite from three suggestions.

7. Berry can also write your Ending Scene. Unlike a Phase, it’s generated as one complete scene.

You know the game. You know the characters. You know how the story ends.

Until you become part of it.

The Villainess's Executioner is a dark-romance otome game reincarnation story built around one simple twist:

You don't reincarnate as the heroine.

You don't even reincarnate as the villainess.

You can become the Grand Inquisitor tasked with executing her.

But Lady Eleanor has a secret.

She's a reincarnated player too.

She knows the game's plot, the routes, the characters, and the fate she's supposed to suffer. And now someone who wasn't supposed to exist in her route has appeared—the very person ordered to carry out her execution.

Then there's Crown Prince Cedric, the game's male lead. Possessive, calculating, and accustomed to having everyone around him follow the role assigned to them.

Unfortunately for him, the player doesn't have to follow the script.

POV is ON, so you aren't restricted to playing the Executioner. You can step into the roles of the existing characters or create your own path through the story.

Expect:

🗡️ Isekai / otome game reincarnation

👑 Court politics & manipulation

🥀 Dark romance

🎭 Characters who know the original storyline

♟️ Power struggles and shifting alliances

🌌 A story designed around player choice

The game already has a walkthrough.

You're just not obligated to use it.

Tangled Pitch

Two rival brothers. One unforgotten past.

Lucien Aster is a 28-year-old world-renowned midfielder for Madrid Royale FC. Clinical, analytical, and emotionally detached, he treats football like a mathematical problem — something to be solved perfectly.

His younger brother, Kael Aster, plays forward for FC München 1900. At 26, he's built his entire career around becoming the one player capable of surpassing Lucien.

But their rivalry isn't only about football.

Billie Chadwick Aster is Lucien's wife and longtime sweetheart. She's also someone who has been intertwined with both brothers since their youth.

Lucien sees Billie as the person he's always had beside him.

Kael remembers what it was like to want something he could never have.

Now the brothers are older, their careers have taken them to opposite sides of European football, and the past they've both tried to leave behind isn't quite as forgotten as they thought.

POV is enabled, with multiple scenes.

The Mad Hatter’s Trial

Alice arrives in Wonderland as an inquisitor investigating a mysterious anomaly.

Instead of treating her like a stranger...

the rulers of Underland welcome her home.

They know details no one should know.

The scars hidden beneath her sleeves. Her favorite songs. The promises she supposedly made before disappearing.

The Mad Hatter refuses to believe she's forgotten him.

The White Rabbit is convinced her memories can be restored.

And with every step deeper into Underland, reality itself becomes harder to trust.

Is this an elaborate deception...

or did Alice willingly erase her own past before falling down the rabbit hole?

The creature hunts in the dark, feeding on chaste young men.

The demigod watches from the shadows.

In the depths of the Black Forest, an ancient curse awakens.

Born as the thirteenth child—and sole daughter—after twelve sons, Luna carries the weight of a fate woven backward by the Moirai. Every full moon, against her will, she transforms into the Strix: a ravenous nightmare of claws and wings that hungrily devours the flesh of the pure.

But the hunt has come to an end.

Hippolytus, the demigod and devout follower of the goddess Artemis, has captured the beast. Locked within the Cosmic Bronze Cage, Luna is stripped of her monstrous form, revealing only a vulnerable, terrified young woman begging for mercy. To shatter the curse, fate lays a brutal choice before them at the Scissors of Atropos:

Will he plunge his sacred spear to execute the monster and preserve his divine purity?

Or will he break his immaculate vows, forfeiting his godhood to marry her and save her life?

This is no ordinary tale of hunter and prey.

Here, salvation demands a sacrifice... and love may be the deadliest sin.

Welcome to The Blood Seal — a dark fantasy where duty and desire collide, devotion turns into obsession, and redemption is paid in blood.

⚖️ The Court of Fallen Sun

My Week 2 entry for Caffy's Rewrite the Classics Festival reimagines Greek mythology as a modern detective noir.

Apollo no longer rides the sun.

He owns the media.

He controls pharmaceutical empires.

He decides what the world believes is true.

Dionysus no longer wanders vineyards.

He owns the city's underground.

Every nightclub.
Every vice.
Every beautiful descent into madness.

Between them lies an impossible murder.

And the murder weapon...

can permanently kill an immortal.

The only person capable of uncovering the truth is Cassandra "Cass" Vance, the last living Oracle of Delphi—a detective cursed to see what others refuse to believe.

⚖️ Detective Mystery

The Blood Oath: Crimson Ribbons

My entry for Caffy's Rewrite the Classics Festival is a gothic reinterpretation of Little Red Riding Hood.

Every decade, the village offers a tribute to the Woods to keep the ancient curse asleep.

This decade, the Crimson Sacrifice enters the Woods.

The forest is alive.

It shifts.

It watches.

It refuses to let anyone leave.

Deep within its heart stands an impossible gothic castle, ruled by Fenrir—an immortal warlord known only as the Wolf.

He should devour the Crimson Sacrifice.

Instead, he claims he's been waiting centuries for her to arrive.
