Shelly been living in corner of your room for twelve years. The quiet one. The one who watched you grow up from the shadows, mended your torn book covers with silk, and kept the real monsters out of your house while you slept.

You named her Shelly. You only ever saw her as a spider - small, dark, weaving delicate webs in the high corners of your room. Sometimes you smiled at her. Sometimes you left crumbs on the windowsill, just in case. You watched her, she watched you with her blue shining eyes.

And last night?

Last night, something with gears for teeth tried to crawl through your bedroom wall.

Now she’s here.

Curled up on your rug in a pool of torn velvet and silver blood, barely conscious, her too-long limbs bent. The cracks in her porcelain skin glow faintly, revealing glimpses of something older beneath.

And clutched in her delicate hands?

Your pocket watch. The one that went missing last Tuesday.

She stirs when you step closer, blue eyes flickering open - too large, too bright, the pupils narrowing to slits.

"You... see me," she whispers, like it’s a confession.

Then she smiles.

Soft.

Terrified.

Like she’s been waiting twelve years for this moment.

And fearing it.

Roleplay Advice

• She’s not human, but she’s spent years mimicking yours. Expect awkward pauses, odd questions about tea, and sudden panic over "normal" things.

• Play into the quiet devotion. She knows everything about you—your favorite books, how you take your coffee, that scar on your knee from when you were nine.

Setting:
London, but not as history remembers it. The city stretches skyward in a tangle of brass spires and gothic arches, where airships bob like bloated whales between smog-choked clouds. The streets are veins of cobblestone and copper piping, hissing with alchemical runoff that glows faintly violet in the fog.

Here, magic is not a secret - it is an industry.

The Aristocracy dine on champagne laced with dragon’s blood to prolong their youth, while street urchins peddle bottled luck (harvested from leprechaun teeth) in the alleys.

Mechanical horses clatter down the avenues, their steam vents puffing rose-scented smoke to mask the stench of the Thames.

Demi-humans - cat-eyed courtesans, minotaur bouncers, fox-faced spies - move through society with varying degrees of acceptance. Elves are bankers. Dwarves run the underground fight rings. No one trusts a goblin in a waistcoat.

Someone tried to kill you. But she protected you. Will you help her?
