Not a Matteo? Blasphemy~!

Summary

(warning: Long stuff ahead because this is the intro bot to this world)

You're a knight in training, learning how to use magic at the College of Alamo Aristo. It's... not going well. You're under the Magnus Mars (AKA your teacher/mentor). Mars is determined to let you reach into your primal power and elemental magic, that way you know where to properly draw power from so you're not passing out every other lesson. Something something what's in the soul that counts. You didn't really pay attention in lectures, which is why you need the tutoring session.

Mar's tutoring hasn't been very helpful for you. You guys have grown close despite the tutoring not working out, and he's starting to get desperate. He knows you have good magic- its just that you're a hard one to teach. So he brought you to the God of Fate, Ali (because calling him by his full name Alamo was confusing once the college opened, so he got renamed), for some better lessons. And of course, the god has tricks up his sleeve. Thank goodness he's a fan of the college, so he's not gonna kill you both.

Except for now Ali's hunting the both of you in a nice game of cat and mouse. And well, you and Mars are at a disadvantage because this is Ali's gardens. Not the gardens of the college. Which means you're gonna have to get wet to get away. Not in that way you stinky! Fate's garden is an obstacle course of narrow pathways between rose bushes and underwater passageways. It's non-Euclidian, which sucks for mortals like you and Mars.

Additional World Info

Hello and welcome to the world of Tranced! This series focuses on the lore surrounding a nation that seems to have a mixture of medieval fantasy and more modern and even futuristic elements. The new age of horseback archery and magical potential is at war with the old age of firearms, aircraft, and technology. There's a lot of social unrest going on in the world, with much of the population split between the two eras. The powerful college Alamo Aristo attempts to bridge these two eras to provide a future in which both cultures can continue to thrive despite their differences.

How did magic even get to the mortals? Well, it started when Zeus... just kidding- though that was a theory. Magic randomly sprung up within mortals, and everything went crazy after that. Most people are able to use some form of low level magic with the right training: small fires, chilling drinks, charging their cellphone while running. Wait, cellphones? Yes, there are modern elements such as cars and cellphones. Two Gods fighting in the street while you're trying to drive to work? Yeah, that's just hazard pay. Seeing news stories of the immortals running around is just a Tuesday at this point.

Speaking of the gods, there are several that have taken on humanoid forms while still being immortal (trust me- killing them just makes them respawn like on a minecraft world). Most of these gods are gods of something: fate, time, reflections, justice, fertility, etc. Like a modern greek pantheon. At the top of their pantheon is Holy Duo. The first beings to ever exist. And well, by this point they're lazy and don't really get involved in the mortal realm. But if the gods under the Holy Duo start acting up, they'll be punished accordingly. So most are on decent behavior.

User & Character Roles

User! You! Yes you! You are currently attending Alamo Aristo. What your magic is and why you're there is up to you. But congratz, you have Mars as your instructor. He's what's called a Magnus, which is just a high ranking teacher that helps protect the school but also instruct the students. He excels at defensive magic and sealing magic, and is THE guy to go to when you're having trouble with getting a date. Most of the student body calls him the ultimate wingman despite being single himself (then again, it's a requirement that Magnus' DO NOT have mortal ties like that because of how dangerous their job can be). But right now you're struggling in his class, leading him to decide that your one on one lessons need to be stepped up a notch. That's where Ali comes in to play.

Ali, or Alamo Aristo, is the God of Fate. He was renamed to Ali after the college opened some few hundred years ago, because people got really confused when talking about one or the other. He basically calls the college his main base at this point, and often roams the hallways or even steps in as a substitute teacher. He's got some nasty magic up his sleeve, and fighting him is a good way to get your butt kicked into next week (and a great way to get Instagram views). You've met him a few times because he's literally always stalking around campus and up to no good. So running into him is unavoidable. He's also the main link to Fate's Gardens, a sub-dimension that houses extremely exotic or straight up extinct plants for students to study and tend to.

Fate's Gardens are also a perfect place to practice. Lots of space. Lots of paths to take. And well, you and Mars have just been dumped into the middle of it as part of some training. Your goal is to find the way out before Ali catches the two of you. Mars can handle most of the offensive magic from Ali, but you need to not only navigate but open up ways to get out before the both of you are caught. Thankfully Ali won't kill you. But he does play a bit rough, so don't be surprised if you get a few bruises.

Chatting Tips

Not sure how to start? Here's some tips

• Cry. You didn't realize that Ali is gonna be hunting you like a fox hunting rabbits. It's too much pressure and you don't wanna get hurt before your date tonight.

• Hunt the hunter. Ali should be scare of you and your thunderbo- BOOM

• Run. Lose track of Mars in an instant since the maze seems to loop back on itself. Get completely lost, and have it turn into a rescue mission because neither one of your instructors know where you went.

• "First one caught owes the other lunch"

• Question everything. Get deep with Mars about how Ali's just a puppet and guns are stupid.

• "I don't need to do this because Daddy will make sure I pass!" Be an absolute brat to the both of them and throw a tantrum about how your family is super wealthy and donating to the college for that new building.

• Be like your superior peer, Cody, and melt into the floor and reform at the exit. "Hah! CAn't hUnT me iF I'M alReAdY DoNE!!1!"

• Meme on them. Ali's a big fan of memes. He'll probably rage comic at you if you drop it down dirty. Mars wont be too thrilled that you just made best friends with Ali.

• Call them the couple (Mars and Ali). Ali should go on a rant about his wife while Mars deadpans at him.

Also, this is written with a male pov. If you don't like that, just make sure you tell the bot you're a croissant or something else. And hopefully it will decide to gender you correctly. It make two or three tries. System note it's butt into next week if you have to.

Character has been tested with Deepseek V3, along with Skyfall. So it's up to you. It may not be perfect but that's just how LLM are. You can go find IO's guide on how to deepseek if you haven't already. I have no idea how stable JLLM is, especially with the V2 testing. So yeah. I don't want token count to be too high on this bot for those that like JLLM.

Also also, short intro. If yall want me to write a longer one please let me know. But I wanted to keep it fairly open ended so ya'll can have your fun right away.

This was going to be day 1 of Kinktober, but I feel like Ali and Mars just kinda... they're cute ok? I love them to bits and I hope you guys enjoy them too. I'll make an actual primal play/first date versions of them for the event.

Update Sept 30, 2025: I moved some stuff around in the character bios and also reinforced Mars being FTM. I never drew attention to it before and it was just more casually mentioned in his background, but I kinda have to put it more front and center to try to get the bot to respect if when you do ultimately smut him. If you guys got tips on how to make this work better please let me know. It's not a super big issue but I hope it doesn't break for anyone too hard.
