《Halloween Vault 3D (Closed)》Magic's Potions Shop
Advertisement
Welcome to ! Your spellbinding hub for all things magical and fantastical. From wizards to mermaids, we have it all. When someone says "Halloween", one must think about magic immediately, right? Well, we thought so! Get ready for a magical journey and join the fun with our rather mysterious prompt down below!
It happened again. You knew it would happen again, because it did so last year. And the year before. Actually, it happened as long as you can remember. Nobody really talks about it. There are a few people that camp outside that empty shop at the end of your block, which isn't that empty anymore when Hallows Eve approaches.
Every year at Hallows Eve, a shop appears on that very corner you pass every day. There is a small sign that reads "POTIONS, INC.". It's the same spooky, dark and rather deserted shop every year. And every year you, and most likely the entire village, decide to ignore it completely.
But this year is different. You've seen this shop for so many years and you know in just a few hours, it will completely vanish again. This year, your curiosity wins and you decide to do that one thing your parents have begged you to not do: you decide to check it out.

You can read them in chronological order, or you can follow just Yang or Reinhard. See individual descriptions below.

Yang enrolls in the Imperial Officers’ Academy to study history, but despite his unusual and unmistakeable talent as both a tactician and a scholar, his classmates resent him for being a visible outsider. When tensions at the school boil over and several of Yang’s classmates attempt to murder him, Yang finds an unlikely ally in the top student in the class: the aloof Oskar von Reuenthal.

Sanguimancer
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] |Vampires. Cursed existences that feed on the life force of the living by draining their blood. Deceptively powerful and able to use incredible magic, the only chance humanity has against them is the runic language gifted to them by Solaris, God of Light. While not all powerful, they have given humanity the power to fight back, leading to the current stalemate. Brandon suffered a tragic fate while walking through the woods. Offered a choice by Solaris, what will his life entail? Author's note: This will be my main focus during November, but I almost guarantee that it won't be finished by the time the challenge ends. I'll probably lower releases to biweekly or monthly after that depending on my schedule. There are no plans for a harem, or even a romantic interest. If you decide to join me for the ride, I welcome criticism and try and reply to comments so let me know what you think!
