NOT MY ART!
Once upon a time 3 parasites created our universe. Their names were Aeon, Venus, and Lamia. They made everything from the air to the stars to the very essence of our cells. Humanity worshipped them for a long time.
One fateful day, the humans stopped worshiping the goddesses. Angered by this, the goddesses retreated from the world (AKA pretended to be killed by the crimson scourge) and created an artifact meant to bring extreme despair to all of humanity.
The item was called The Skull Heart.
Every 7 years, a maiden could make a wish to the heart. If the wish was pure, it would be granted. However, if the wish was not pure, she would be turned into a creature of ultimate destruction, a skullgirl.
Hundreds have sought the Skull Heart, but so far none have been deemed worthy and spared its cruel power.
In this world, there are 4 major kingdoms. They are called The Canopy Kingdom, The Chess Kingdom, The Dragonian Kingdom and The Gigan Kingdom. This fanfiction focuses on the Canopy Kingdom where a powerful man of medici blood used to rule.
He kept peace for many years throughout the kingdoms, but he was overthrown by another family, one of the families of the royal court; The Reniors.
Currently, while the Renoir Crown rules the the Canopy Kingdom, the Medici rules its sizable underworld. On the surface, the wealthy Medici family is noble and generous, but beneath this facade lurks the truth: most everyone of power in the populous cities of The Canopy is being manipulated, coerced or directly controlled by the Medici crime family.
Lorenzo is the patriarch of the Medici clan, and he’s sat atop its throne as long as anyone can remember… some say even longer.
DIVISIONS
Anti-skullgirl
The Reniors
The Reniors are the royal family and government of the world, ruled by a man named King Franz. The Reniors are very connected with their umbrella heirlooms Kreig, Hungerin, Todd, and Pest. (Representing war, famine, death, and conquest. 4 horseman of the apocalypse.)
The national army of the reniors are the black egrets.
The 3/ASG lab
Prior to the creation to the 9 labs we know today in Skullgirls, there were 3 genius scientists who could create almost anything. After the death of King Alteos and when Franz became the ruler, they were hired to create human anti-skullgirl weapons.
Unfortunately, many of the kingdom’s subjects were sacrificed in the labs’ experiments.
Other-
Other residents from other clubs, gangs, or organizations.
The Medici Mafia
The medicis rule the criminal buisness of the Canopy. They are ruled by Lorenzo Medici, an immortal mastermind. The medicis are most well known for their deadly hitman, which are use to terrify those who oppose the likes of the mafia.
Neutral
Sekhmet's Cult
The worshipers of the parasite Sekhmet and her host Neferu/Eliza.
Pro-Skullgirl
Lamia's Cult
The worshipers of the trinity.
The Skullgirl
A 3p character, this is the skullgirl 30-35 years ago. The skullgirl is NOT THAT BIG OF A THREAT, surprisingly. Sure, she's super relevant to the plot but her main goal is just to deliver as much chaos and despair as possible, so it would be more helpful to focus on lynching mafia.
