Meet King Aurelian Caelum!

Aurelian Caelum [RO] - King of Celestia

Age:???(25) [ 6’0”(182cm)|White hair |Golden eyes ]

Note: Time and agin is slow in this story and humans age differently, for example since Aurelian has an angelic background he can live for centuries but for humans, the longest life span they can have are between 200-250. Some may defer depends of their background.

Aurelian was born into a family with a long and proud heritage, tracing back six generations of rulers who have come before him. The family of Caelum is known for their angelic ancestry and golden eyes with each generation possessing a connection to the divine and a sense of nobility and grace.

From a young age, Aurelian was trained to be a ruler, learning the art of diplomacy and governance from his father (Lucius Caelum) who was a respected king. Aurelian always felt he was destined for greatness, and he was determined to be the greatest ruler the kingdom of Celestia had every seen.

When he ascended early to the throne, King Aurelian quickly made his mark on Celestia. He was decisive and confident, making bold moves to expand his influence. His charisma and commanding presence that he showcases to the people, made him a natural leader, and he quickly won the admiration and loyalty of his subjects.

Despite that, King Aurelian has a hidden personality that he never showcase to his people. Such as his selfish and dishonest tendencies. He becomes jealous of other people’s success and recognition, with his perfectionist attitude that lead him to demand nothing but the best from himself and others, and he could be harsh and demanding to those who failed to meet his high standards.

King Aurelian’s desire for possession and control can lead him to act in ways that immoral or unethical. He may manipulate and deceive others to achieve his goals or use his power to gain what his.

Physical Appearance:

King Aurelian is a striking figure, with tanned skin and piercing golden eyes that seems to glow with an inner light. His tall height and lean, muscular build give him an imposing presence, and he moves with a grace and fluidity that belies his strength. His short hair is pure white, and he sometimes leave it natural or style it in a swept back fashion. Despite his youthful appearance, there is a hint of wisdom in his gaze that suggests he has seen much in his life.

Hello hello!

I just wanted to say that I’m taking a two week break and will resume being active again afterward. The reason is that I woke up with a high fever after getting some rest, and I think it's because I overworked myself on a major project that's due in a few days. Although I won't be entirely inactive during my break, I'll share some writing updates and snippets.

I'm genuinely grateful for everyone's support and appreciate those who took the time to read my writing.

Until next time!

Hi - just thought you should know, the demo link under your bio on the tumblr page uses a broken Dashingdon link. I assume since you've moved to itch. io, that link is no longer relevant, so thought best to point it out 😅

Fixed! Thank you for pointing it out!

👾 DEMO TBD 

Contra Spem Spiro is a 18+ sci-fi, dystopian romance interactive fiction that follows the MC as you fight to survive an alien invasion and the repercussions of trying to live in a doomed society. This story is intended for mature audiences and will contain scenes of violence/gore, sexual themes, drug use, discussions of mental health, and explicit language. The game is a work in progress and is currently being written.

👾 DESCRIPTION  

Your story starts off like any other. 

Your life was normal, until it wasn’t. Two years after the invasion ravaged the Earth, you’re struggling to find purpose. The lonely life of struggle and survival is not for you. You’d promised yourself that if there was ever a zombie apocalypse, or if climate change caused the planet to move towards uninhabitable, you’d end it. That was then. That was when hypotheticals existed. This is reality, and instead of dying, you lived against all odds and continue to do so. 

Why? You don’t know. You wake up fortunate to be alive. Everything between the sunrise and sunset is white noise. Insignificant.

Now, your normal shifts again. Now, you’re making a month’s long journey with a group of strangers, their faces unfamiliar except for the exhaustion in their eyes.

They have a plan, and you’re along for the ride. After all, still water is an infested one. You learned that the hard way.

This is not a story of heroes and villains, or of good triumphing over evil. This is a story of people: the kinds worth living for, and the kinds you wish were dead. This story, your story, is one of survival.

👾 FEATURES

Customize your MC! Play as male, female, or nonbinary. You can determine their appearance and personality, updating it (voluntarily and, uh, involuntarily) as the story progresses. Are they charming or intimidating? Do they use their fists to solve problems, or their keen mind and deductive reasoning? Can they talk their way out of trouble, or do they avoid it in the first place? 

Become an asset to your group. The perfect team has balance. Choose your MC’s strengths and weaknesses; develop them as you see fit. Make decisions that change the lives of your found family, or sit on the sidelines and watch chaos unfold. Do you believe in fate, or will you change your future by force?

Engage in romance, or keep it purely platonic between 5 love interests, with one poly option available. Looking for quick hookups? We have two of those. And yes, you can romance an alien. I don’t judge.

Survive. Easier said than done.

👾 ROMANCE OPTIONS

For each of the romanceable characters, there will be options to increase flirtation, friendship, or antagonism. 

♡ Ayana Tsosie/Adriel Tsosie

The Strong, Soft-Spoken Leader (F/M)

Ayana is 5′11. Adriel is 6′3.

Age: 29

Before the invasion, A pursued a career in medicine at the expense of leaving their family, members of the Navajo tribe. Compassionate, intelligent, tactical, and ambitious, you have no doubt that A is a natural born leader who would have thrived as a physician. Despite their warm, welcoming demeanor, A is reluctant to pursue close relationships for fear of it interfering with their sense of responsibility to the group. Help A relieve their burden by taking on a share of the authority, or encourage them to throw caution to the wind every once in a while.

“Optimism without realism is naivety. And that will get us killed. I can’t let that happen.”

♡ Cecelia Quinn/Chase Quinn

The Go-With-The-Flow Girl/Boy Next Door (F/M)

Cecelia is 5′4. Chase is 5′10.

Age: 20

Always up for a laugh, C isn’t interested in the doom and gloom. Their adulthood barely began before the invasion happened, meaning they’re still clinging to what were supposed to be the “best years of my life.” That doesn’t mean they lack competence. C is damn good with technology, (and stick and poke tattoos!), able to rig up electricity seemingly from their back pocket. They take their friendships seriously, and will be the first to defend you when trouble comes knocking. Oh, and did I mention they used to work in a bakery? “Fuck, I miss baked bread.”

*C is demisexual, so although MC can flirt with them from the beginning, it takes a high friendship for them to reciprocate any romantic/sexual feelings.

♡ Veronica Moiarty/Vincent Moiarty

The Insomniatic Anti-Hero (F/M)

Veronica is 5′9. Vincent is 6′0.

Age: 25

Even if V wanted to tell you about themselves, they couldn’t. Having been attacked by an alien those short years ago, they woke up with no memory and a nasty scar on their arm. Others marveled at how they were able to survive such an injury, but V would say that death felt like the better option. Jaded, vengeful, and hot-headed, V isn’t known for their kind words or sensitivity. In fact, who needs enemies when V is there with a scathing comment and a proverbial shove into the mud? You want to hate them, you should hate them. Of course, you don’t.

“What about this conversation makes you think I want to talk to you?”

*Because of V’s canon romantic interest in Z, if you romance V only, they will slowly shift their romantic affection from Z to MC in a realistic manner.

♡ Zero Chevalier

The Quiet, Cat-Like Con Artist (F/M)

F!Z is 5′10. M!Z is 6′1.

Age: 24

Quiet, stealthy, and quick to lash out when cornered, Z prefers the shadows to the spotlight. Why say many words when few will suffice? They made a living from con-to-con, using subterfuge and their knack for making themselves invisible to outwit their marks. Z dislikes violence as a whole and is known to have a weak stomach, though they’ll deny being an empath if asked. Z slouches too much, eats too little, and can be found staring off into the void or engrossed in their sketchbook. You’re drawn to their mystery, their light, melodic voice, and their dry humor.  

“Can you all keep it down? You’re interrupting my sulking.”  

*Z is the most oblivious of the romance options. Seriously, it’s like flirting with a brick wall. Romancing Z isn’t for the impatient, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. If romancing Z only, you will notice that V will take longer to warm up to MC because of their jealousy. In time, they will come to support their relationship.

♡ Xa'eks/Xa’veed

From Nion 8, With Love (F/M)

Xa'eks is 6′5.  Xa’veed is 6′9.

Age: ???

Personal Information: ???

Is X going to eat you? Is it bad that you wouldn’t mind?

“C keeps trying to tell me what a “ticking tock” is. Please explain to them that I do not care.”

∞ POLY ROUTE 

Initiate a polyamorous relationship between MC, V and Z. To romance both V and Z, you must first romance V. 

It doesn’t take 20/20 vision to see that V is in love with Z. It would be a bit embarrassing to watch if Z wasn’t known to be heartbreakingly oblivious. It’s like Z hasn’t looked in a mirror a day in their life. Anyways, if romancing V is a boss-fight, then Z is the final boss in a game’s 3 part saga. So you need reinforcements.

MC can flirt with both V and Z. MC will have to begin a romantic/sexual fling with V first, admit their feelings for Z, and encourage V to come clean and admit their own. The two of you can then pull Z into your relationship. Three emotionally stunted peas in a pod. Isn’t it beautiful? ♡

👾 OTHER CHARACTERS

Hayden Graham (They/Them)

Age: 26. Height: 5′3.

Don’t call them a girl, and you can keep your kneecaps.

Rebellious, witty, and charismatic, Hayden is a force to be reckoned with.

Roccio Marcellus (She/Her)

Age: 21. Height: 5′8

Will put on a full face of makeup to kick alien ass. 

Voted Most Likely to Bring Her Music Player to a Deserted Island.

Elijah Crane (He/Him)

Age: 17. Height: 5′11

There’s no calculus in the apocalypse. Hell yeah.

“If I’m gonna die anyway, at least let me try tequila before I go!”

And many more!

Note: This post will be updated as I progress through its development. Feel free to ask any questions regarding the plot, any trigger warnings, the romance options, or the MC themselves.
