Lunacy: waxing moon (ch.1-5)
« on: December 13, 2015, 07:38:41 am »
WARNING: A subforum has been made to post comment and opinions of other works. Post your comments there. Please do NOT post comments here.

«Lunacy»

Setting:Fictional world, not too different but definitely not modern. This world has have different time set (only 21 hours within a day but each hour is 30 minutes longer than our time), a smaller sun and a larger moon. the main town is based off of Italy and Spain while the alternate town is based of st. Basils cathedral in moscow russia.

The clock is set by Daylight, Twilight, and Midnight hours. Twilight hours are just 2 hours between daylight and midnight.


Characters:

(concept art)
Krema
Noche, Lucia, Sebastian

Noche Carlevaro is a very intelligent 17 year old boy taking care of his handicapped mother and his baby sister at a bakery. Silver-blonde hair and deep blue eyes is a rarity in this world making the woman see him as a very handsome boy (in easier terms: women act like cougars around him). Knowing full well he's attractive, uses it to promote his bakery. He's hardly interested in anyone except for a young woman named Lucia. He searches for brotherhood more than romance despite the fact that he loves Lucia.

Lucia Silva is a 21 year old woman, pure black short hair and grey eyes, her emotions are subtle but leave deep impact on men, she cares for Noche and doesnt get hypnotized by his appearance. However she has a dark secret in which is related to Noche's mom never approving of her.

Krema is a lunatic (a moon being in this series). Has the appearance of a 24-year-old woman but her age is unknown. Stale black hair, and turqoise eyes, She is emotionless and has no memories of her past. Only cares about the task at hand and is socially awkward among humans. In combat she is an expert and well versed, able to turn anything into a weapon. She formed a contract with Noche. Her true powers are unlocked during a fullmoon. Her appearance would change to bright brown and her eyes give off a glow. Her weapon is a scythe in which due to her contract has Noche's name engraved on it.

Sebastian Aiza is an 18 year old boy. Brown hair slicked back, green eyes and a small beard, He is Noche's best friend. When Noche is around him, his dark demeanor disapears and becomes more light and enjoyable. Unlike Noche he has strong interest in women and often joins Noche to be with the other woman first. Despite this, he has a strong yet casual loyalty to Noche.

Plot: Every year, the town celebrates Walpurgis Night, a night in which a sage known as Walpurga sealed away most of the Earthbounds. During this celebration, Noche accidentally forms a contract with a Lunatic, a being from the moon sworn to slay earthbound remnants. every full moon to see if hes worthy of becoming the next Darklord. The first to slay 100 becomes a candidate. Whether he wants to or not he is forced to participate in this contest known as The Amber Moon trials.

Notes: Originally titled "Darklord's Romance" and had demons instead of lunatics. Criticism over demons was over done despite demon being a distinct species in the story. The differences are minor. The only reason why I didnt name them lunatics was because I wanted the moon features to be a major reveal.

Ive added a large amount of characters. Originally, focused on just "handsome" characters, but for beauty to be more apparent I needed to add average to ugly characters.

another strong point is that this was originally meant to be a josei manga, so some realistic dark features were in the original design. Unfortunately, I have to keep my work at a strictly PG13 basis on this forum. So I turned this into a more shonen/seinen approach. Most of the elements remained the same, the only difference is I had to adjust the characters.


IMPORTANT NOTICE:
there is a reason why the titles are color-coded (and if you're happen to be color blind there is additional help)

RED = Not completed, and not ready to be read. Massive changes could be made. If you read this version, you will get confused by the final product.

YELLOW = Can be read, but changes will occur depending on review. I suggest you read this version only if you want to help out  in the development process. other than that, I suggest you wait so you don't have to read it a second time.

GREEN = Complete. and can be read by anyone.

A Little Something Extra:

Since Chapter III is finished, I decided to just give some minor information about the world of "Lunacy". There is a name for the country, and there are some other towns that will shown in the story.

But the first arc will primarily set in Orologio Cobalto (Cobalt Clock in italian) (originally named Citta di Tempo / City of Time) and one other city left to be unnamed. As the story expands, a lot of the action scenes will be on rofftops or during the night. But in the normal scenes, you will notice a lot of it is going to set in restaurants, cake shops, clothing stores. etc. and that is mainly meant to show how easy going life is in this town (on the surface of course). A lot of high end and unique dresses (lolita inspired) and italian and russian insprited architecture is set. The architecture is inspired by both fantasy and real world places. The fantasy inspiration came from Pandora Hearts, .hack, Baccano! Kingdom Hearts and II. As for the real world is london, italy, spain and russia (moscow of course)

Throughout the series, I intend to add some intricate desserts into the background. Specifically in areas involvin restaurants.  In this world, there's more nutrition in sweets than in any normal healthy food. So although you will see normal food along with desserts,, what's considered "healthy" is reversed. Here are some foods I hope, or expect (if the artist is not me) to draw in the future:


* Cannoli
* Panna Cotta
* Tira Misu
* Flan
I'll post more soon. Also if anyone is wondering why I haven't included "Alexis" in the character list, that character list is meant to be only the characters that were believed to be relevant in the beginning. So I guess I wanted her to be a surprise.

Established Characters:

Alexis Rubio is a girl with red mermaid hair and hazel eyes. She appears to be the same age as Sebastian. Not much is known about her other than joining Noche's group on a whim which gave her a permanent seat in his circle as now she's involved in the Amber Moon Games. Although working on establishing a relationship with Sebastian, her true interests lie in Noche. She often reading an unknown book with "reading glasses". She also appears quite casual and light hearted.

Ms. Carlevaro is Noche's mother and 38 years old. She shares virtually no physical traits with Noche other than their blue eyes. She has dark brown hair and slightly tan skin. She is handicapped, although not made clear in what aspect yet. She loves money and is happy her son is willing to do anything to gain more customers. Rumors are that she was once a great pastry chef but was fired for reasons unknown. Despite her greed, she loves her family very much.

Bura Alexis's contracted Lunatic. His age is unknown but appears to be a man in his early 30s. He has long messy light brown hair and yellow eyes. He is an old acquantance of Krema and their relationship is unclear. He is a smooth talker, able to convince almost anything to anyone. He has other plans set up that are not known at this moment but they seem to be sinister.
