DC: Devilborne

IronSimian
Matthew Gordon's life had changed ever since he was blinded at the age of nine. At first, he was overcome with fear. He would never see again. His father, sister, or just the world in general. Good or bad. It was taken from him. But with his vision gone, something extraordinary occurred. Memories and abilities that at first felt foreign, returned to him like they'd never left. He had lived before. 40 years of Another life, just in another place. He was a lawyer, an inspiration, and a vigilante. He was the devil of Hell's Kitchen. Daredevil. What now? Nothing. For 8 long years, Matthew Gordon had let the past be the past. He had been a hero in another life, the world had enough. Even Gotham, his home, had none other than Batman. Metropolis had Superman. The world had the Justice League. He could live a normal life and be a lawyer.... That would all change on the night of graduation. When a celebration turns to tragedy. His classmates, his friends... slaughtered. A Devil was born again. __________________________________________________ All rights go to their respective owners, I own nothing except my OCs.

THE CROWN OF WATERS

Noel Vallis, a young boy born into the noble Vallis family, has always lived in the shadow of expectations. As the heir to a powerful estate, his life seems destined to follow a strict path, but Noel has always felt out of place. Raised in a world of discipline and secrets, he yearns for something more—something that doesn’t conform to the rigid rules of his family. When Noel discovers his mysterious connection to the ancient koi pond on his family’s estate, he unwittingly awakens a dormant power tied to his bloodline. Magic surges within him, but it’s a power that cannot be controlled. A dark crystal refuses to react, and Noel is left questioning his place in the Vallis legacy. His only confidant, Ethen—his childhood friend and the son of his nanny—reveals that Noel is not just any heir, but the true heir to an ancient, magical legacy tied to the very land itself. The Vallis family’s secrets have been hidden for centuries, lost during the Empire Unification War. No heir has appeared in over 300 years, and Duke Vallis, Noel’s father, remains unaware of the true history that binds their family to an ancient seal—the Throne of Waters. This seal lies within the koi pond, a place that has always comforted Noel, but now holds a deeper meaning. It is a key to immense, untapped power, and only Noel, as the true heir, can unlock it. With the help of Ethen, Noel begins a journey of self-discovery and magical awakening. But the power within him comes with a price. As he grows stronger, he must confront his fears, his painful past, and the dark secrets of the Vallis family. The road ahead is fraught with danger, and Noel must learn to master the magic that flows through his veins, all while protecting his family’s legacy from those who seek to control it for their own gain.
