Sarai dispelled [Dark Tendrils] as soon as the Neung-uh died, dropping loot.
I stared at the silent archer, sizing him up. Baran was definitely the one who cast [Chained Arrow].
“If he has [Chained Arrow]... then he must hav...

Also referred to as BasaBasa (바사바사), the creature originates from Japanese Folklore. It resides in bamboo forests at night, but often descends to small villages in search of prey at night. The creature breathes fire, but it is not hot.
In MSS, it is the natural enemy of many smaller monsters; often acting as an Apex Predat...

A type of mermaid which can trade its origins to Japanese and Korean Folklore. Their tears are said to be made of pearls.
In MSS, these monsters are a rarity: their abilities are specialized for escape and stall tactics. They only reside in places where the concentration of monsters are high, often associated with M...

Comparing the Neung-uh to a mermaid was doing a disservice to mermaids everywhere, especially the movie where a certain red-haired girl gives up her voice to be with her prince charming.
Because the Neung-uh was one ugly piece of shit.

“Will it be you, Baran?” I pointed at the elven archer then to the dwarven rogue. “Or, Furgrin, perhaps you’d like to talk.” Finally my gaze rested on Ramhof. “Or the holy knight who is supposed to uphold justice.”

A yokai from Japanese Folklore; seen wearing straw rain coats paired with a red or blue one mask. Many people tend to mistake the Namahage as an Oni but they are different creature entirely. Usually they carry either a kitchen knife or a club. They are the Japanese folklore counterpart to the Boogeyman, punishing naughty...

Arahan waited idly, keeping his mouth shut. His ankle was swelling, visibly and he worked on undoing the laces on his boots, trying to get the blood flowing. Experience taught him that he wouldn’t be able to put weight on it until he saw a Healer or until Father Time ticked the clock away. Eve...

With knee-high shrubs and bushes hugging the ground, the Ghard farm was full of hiding spots. If he had any talent with magic he could probably hide himself by bending the tree branches toward him. Cursing inwardly, Arahan crept along the shadows cast by the branches; looking like wicked claws ...

I’ve always liked books and games since I was a kid. I think it’s because I never really had any friends. After school, it was always off to the latest violin lesson or cram school. So of course, no time for friends. I don’t think my parents had any spare time for me either; it’s hard to spend time with your child when t...
