kani/kurja | 25+ | they/it | blog for organizing & inspiring my original worlds & characters.


Hi! I'm Kani. I'm a graphic designer & a fine arts student. I blog about & organize my original character/world content here. Bunch of ramblings, speculation, going back and forth and goofing around.
A lot of my work is aimless worldbuilding & character development. Hopefully one day I'll find a a couple stories in that that I can turn into comics or such.

My main page is @kurjakani where I post all my art !

human | approx. 30 y/o | they/them

Raised from child to fight, Tempus Edax Rerum has taken up the work of helping those in need of protection. Focused on guarding towns during strong demonic activity, they sometimes take better paying jobs watching over adventurers seeking to loot old ruins. Tempus Edax Rerum has found an interest in scholarly subjects: philosophy, engineering, arts, history and over all culture. They're rather smart, and yearn for a life as a simple philosopher. However they know that they have a skill that can be used to help and save people, so their intellectual pursuits have remained a hobby.
The people who trained Tempus Edax Rerum still look for them from time to time. They move around, and have gained the favor of many people who refuse to reveal their location.
They have a particular distaste for being told what to do, though they manage their reactions fairly well if they like you. They tend to be a bit fussy generally.

Tempus Edax Rerum is like my most mary sue babygirl op oc and I love them so deeply they get everything including bitches and bitches is me

BACKGROUND

Tempus Edax Rerum is the child of a lord from the (TBA) kindom, chosen along with a select few to be raised as the kings devil hunters/warriors. This did not in fact go well. They always had a simmering rebellious streak, which was "managed" with harsher punishments and conditions. This only turned them more inside, made them quieter and resentful.
When their training ended, Tempus Edax Rerum lasted in their work for only two years. They found much of the fighting to be at best useless to serve the people they were supposed to be protecting, and at worst morally reprihencible. They killed one of their directors, and left.
It took a while for them to get used to living without their order, and for people to get used to Tempus Edax Rerum, but they slowly started to find community in towns they would protect. They spent a longer bit of time in a town where an old witch housed them, and started them on a journey of dealing with their resentment and temperament. Tempus Edax Rerum still visits this old witch, and calls her grandmother.
It didn't take long for Tempus Edax Rerum to find some routine after that. They worked hunting some more notorious people and devils, protecting towns and as muscle for archeologists and adventurers.
They have lived as such for a while, avoiding contact from their family and their order. Tempus Edax Rerum has made many friends, and unfortunately plenty of enemies too.

NOTE! my friend Max came up with a bunch of concepts/ideas for their story, thank u Max xoxoxo!!!

a heavenly body | a few thousand years old | they/them

Muco is a heavenly body, a being capable of granting any single wish for anyone. If made with ill will or on the expense of others, the blessing will come with a curse.
Hurt by their naivety in their past, Muco tries to put on a cold, abrasive front, but often fails completely. They're bright hearted, a little stupid and intensly curious. They have to constantly hold back their instinct to love everyone. Exessively emotional- they anger and go into fits of crying in the blink of an eye. At the end, Muco is a very hurt and lonely being, made awkward by a couple hundred years of isolation.

BACKGROUND

A few hundred years ago one of the great heavenly bodies fell to earth. They were found by humans and celebrated profusely. Named Muco by the people, the heavenly body was very naive and delighted. They granted wishes left and right, regardless of the persons intent: as long as your wish didn't sound outwardly cruel, you could get away with it.
Most notably, Muco granted wishes to three kings, who waged wars with the new powers granted to them.Before Muco would witness this however, a friend of theirs had grown fearful of them. This friend saw the unlimited blessings and curses Muco had unleashed on the kindoms, and thought them a demon sent to destroy humanity.
This friend finally made their wish to Muco, not telling them what it was beforehand: they wished Muco to be imprisoned and left alone to suffer. As this was a wish made with ill intent, the friend themself turned into their underground prison. The friends bones grew into tall pillars, flesh turned to stone halls and teeth stretched to become cell bars.
Muco lived in this labyrinthian underground prison for a little under two hundred years. They grew resentful, thinking over much of what they'd done. Though they didn't know the impact their blessings/curses had had, they started to recognize their foolishness & uncaringness in some places, and clear manipulation they had experienced in other situations.
Their imprisonment came to an end when one of this worlds adventurers, (CHARACTER TBA), fell right through the slowly crumbling roof.
Now Muco, along with this adventurer as their help, steps out into a trastically different world, with growing intent to figure out what has happened, and how they could, and if they should, fix it.
