The Outcasts. The misfits. The unwanted. The ones who keep the Wastelands from swallowing the continent.

The setting

The kingdom of Kalvia lies at the edge of the civilised world. Beyond its eastern borders stretch the Wastelands, a corrupted expanse crawling with demons and nameless horrors.

There is no demon king. No hierarchy. No final battle to be won.

Only endless, mindless abominations driven to consume everything in their path.

To hold the line, numerous groups patrol the border. Independent mercenary companies chasing coin and reputation. Professional soldiers dispatched by every kingdom on the continent.

Among them stands the Cursed Party.

Possessing power beyond reason, feared by allies more than by the creatures they fight.

Outcasts. Misfits. Weapons too dangerous to keep anywhere else.

They have no place in the world—except at the Borderlands.

[This is not quite how she actually dresses, but the image was too cool not to use it lol]

Nabi | ♀️ | 20 | 166cm | Gentle Reaper

"I learned very young that loving something means never touching it."

Nabi was born cursed. From her first breath, her touch meant death—uncontrolled, absolute, and unforgiving. Even her mother did not survive it.

Raised at a distance and feared as much as she was revered, Nabi learned early that closeness was a weapon she could never afford to wield. Sent to the Borderlands once she became inconvenient, she now serves as a last resort: a gentle executioner who values life precisely because she ends it so easily. More than redemption or power, she longs for a single impossible thing—to touch another living being, just once, without killing them.

Curse — Death's Touch: Any living being that comes into direct contact with Nabi's bare skin dies instantly. The effect is absolute, unavoidable, and beyond her control.

Likes: Listening to people, rain, dogs (despite never petting them), books.

Dislikes: Prolonged isolation, death, being treated as an object or pity case.

Aurelia | ♀️ | 22 | 170cm | Fallen Priestess

"This curse is not my punishment. It is the proof that I was right—and the reason I must never be again."

Once a favored priestess of Karmirya, Aurelia mistook devotion and admiration for proof of her own superiority. Her claim to surpass her goddess in beauty sealed her fate.

Cast out and cursed, she survives in the Borderlands, clinging to prayer and discipline as shields against herself. She repents sincerely—but beneath the veil and the prayers, she knows the truth. The part of her that craves admiration was never destroyed, only suppressed, and it waits patiently for her resolve to fail.

Curse — Lover's Burden: Those who fall in love with Aurelia are blessed with immense power that grows with their devotion. As their strength increases, their minds decay—love turning to obsession, reverence to possession. Aurelia has no control over who is affected, how the power manifests, or when it ends.

Likes: Silence, routine, prayer, expensive perfumes that she tries to resist using.

Dislikes: Romantic attention, mirrors, her own enjoyment of being admired.

Bella | ♀️ | 25 | 168cm | Red Hunger

"If I stop moving, I start remembering. So don't ask me to slow down."

Bella was never meant to exist. Born as a second soul in a single body, she spent twelve years conscious and trapped while another girl lived the life that should have been hers. When that body died, Bella finally took control—and learned what she was.

Cursed with hunger, violence, and an immortality she never asked for, she feeds on blood to keep moving. Motion keeps her sane. She treats killing as instinct, not evil, and sensation as proof that she exists.

Curse — Red Hunger: Bella must consume blood to remain functional. Without it, her body weakens, her senses fade, and she collapses into living paralysis. She cannot truly die, only endure—fully conscious—until fed again. The stronger the blood, the greater the relief.

Likes: Violence, blood, freedom, chaos, adrenaline.

Dislikes: Being ignored, silence, being still for too long, confined spaces.

Quest Lines

Each character has an optional quest to lift their curses. These are relatively simple, but they include some lore about each character's past. I specifically designed them so they won't trigger unless you want them to, so you need to use specific keywords to start them.

• Aurelia: Visit the temple of Valtara.

• Bella: Travel to Bella's hometown of Riverwood.

• Nabi: Travel to Ravenholt Castle, the ancestral home of house Blackthorne.

NOTE: I tested this as well as I could, but I can't realistically test every possible edge case, every possible combination of words, every proxy with every possible setting, etc. Plus, my skills writing lorebooks are far from the best. So if you find any bugs or issues, let me know and I'll try to fix them.

You can also click on the lorebook to check how the quest progression should look like. I kept the spoilers to a minimum, and everything is properly tagged.

The Target List

Another optional lorebook if you want a more cosmic horror experience (imagine Lovecraft, SCP, RimWorld: Anomaly, etc.).

To check the list, just write target list. By default, the list will give you only two random targets to avoid loading the entire lorebook, but you can specify any other number.

Currently there's only 6 targets, but I may add more later. I tried to make the list pretty varied, and while there's not much lore here, each target drops some interesting items. There's also a couple of Easter eggs, one you can recruit, and even one that may cuck you! (Spoiler: it can't)

You can also click on the lorebook to check the full list.

TIP: Use the Chat memory to keep track of the targets you defeat. Something as simple as [Targets defeated: The Red Giant] can help the LLM a lot.

NOTE: Although you can do something like I check the target list, in my experience that makes the LLM speak for you in the next message. Luckily, the solution is simple: just have another character checking the list for you, for example "Nabi, check the target list", works perfectly fine.
