(WIP) Era of the Archdemons — 65k Words | Light-Hearted to Dark Fantasy | Update 10/22/25

Head straight into it: Era of the Archdemons

This was my first IF and WIP about the archdemons and Lovecraftian gods. Well, it has returned but I deleted the files of the original so I’m rewriting all of it. I still remember the broad strokes so it may feel familiar, nonetheless.

Synopsis:

After lucifer fell from heaven, he conquered hell and made the first demoness Lilith his betroved, creating three children. Archdemons. The essence of both archangel and demon fused into a new species potentially more dangerous than gods.

The first came Asmodeus, the Archdemon of Order & Chaos. Considered the most dangerous archdemon.

Then came Abaddon, the Archdemon of Life & Death. Cunning like her father and sadistic like her mother, she plays with the blueprint of life and the concept of death. Most unpredictable of the three.

Lastly came Astaroth, the Archdemon Sage. He has the wisdom, intelligence and curiosity of gods like Odin, Athena and Isis.

You are Asmodeus’s Progeny. I am Asmodeus. Something or someone lures me back to earth. Im going to figure out what it is on this journey into the unknown.

RO is polyamorous by default for Asmodeus. The progeny is traditional.

Plans for the first half of the game (chapters 1-6)

Chapter 1 & 2: The Unknown Arc / Ariel added to the group / Progeny

Chapter 3 & 4: Slice of Life Arc / Simon and Roanoa added to the group / Worldbuilding / Companion Arcs

Chapter 5 & 6: Green Shadows and Rabid Teeth Arc (Main Plot) / Heralds of Nyarlathotep / Era of Chaos

Note that this is Ai generated. Couldn’t find anything free that I felt would fit and the ones that did were generated as well so I did it myself.

Pretty good for an unfinished prologue. The writing is enjoyable and pace feels good so far for a prologue at least. But not much to go on, but that said the genre, concept and what you have here so far, have definitely captivated my attention. So I’ll be watching how this story fares.

SIDE Note: You might want watch out for whole page encompassing paragraphs. Because they can be a bit jarring. Saw a few typos nothing major, pretty normal demo stuff. Also this line repeats. Plus this scene is the one with all encompassing paragraph. So 2 or 3 spacing out would be good.

Otherwise great work, and looking forward to more demon backgrounds.
Cliffhangers…

If all the Arcdemons got into a fight who would come out on top? I’m guessing the Arcdemon of war :skull:

Loved the prologue, a bit much to chew. But since it’s a prologue I believe it shall be forgiven. On that note of the prologue loved the unique twist of 4th wall breaking.

Saw some typos, here and there but nothing Super major. Otherwise I’m looking forward to seeing where this goes. Bookmarked and put on watch. Keep up the great work, but be sure not to burn yourself out too.


Ah gotcha :ok_hand:

So an update…

Chapter 2 part 1 will introduce Ariel & entail completing the initial mission alongside Isa & Jin with killing a sea serpent.

Chapter 2 part 2 will essentially be a long fight between Ariel & either Isa or you based on a misunderstanding. (Subject to change)

Chapter 3 will introduce the last companion. A shorter chapter than the rest.

Chapter 4 will be the longest. It’s the “explore” chapter. This is where the romance & character arcs begin.

Chapter 5 & beyond is the main plot. That’s right. You haven’t even gotten to the main story yet. LMAO

I don’t know what’s happening

This feels like it was written by an AI. My advice would be to not rely to much on already existing concept. Make your own and make those that already exist as a stepping stone instead of copying them.
