The Nameless is a fantasy interactive fiction that is character and romance driven, with your race (sheevra) loosely based on stories about the fey and other myths, specifically when it comes to deals and the meaning of names.
You play as a sheevra investigating the complete disappearance of one of four sheevra Clans in the world, running across a ragtag group of both sheevra and mortalis along the way…
Customizable MC (non-binary inclusive, additional customization items outside of gender and hair/eye color coded into next Chapter update)
Play as a dryad, unseelie, or leanhaun with different magic bonuses
4 Romance Options, gender swappable
Stats and Magic vs Might mostly used for story direction
“Despite history, you have known the better side of mortalis and find yourself being empathetic toward them. Though you are more used to the sheevra and your home in the Sanctum, you can’t help but feel curious about the mortalis and their world.”—the namelessby@parkerlyn

Hi all! A small announcement with more expansion below but:
In the next public update, Oisein will be locked to nonbinary he/they.
That’s really all, but if you’d like to know more, a bit of rambling under the cut. Thank you for your support! ❤️
This has been a long time coming, and recently started rattling around my brain again with those author asks and after playing in the D&D campaign with the character that inspired Oisein. The nail in the coffin was writing some recent shorts for Patreon - when it came to she/her Oisein, it just felt… Off.
I’ve mentioned before that the D&D character (nb he/they) that inspired Oisein was a way for me to explore my own gender and helped me realize that I’m nonbinary. The best way I can describe them is comfortable and happy to flaunt their amab body, but with a general nonchalance toward gender. I thought I could separate Oisein from him and for the most part it worked - but drawing or writing Oisein as a cisgender woman has always taken a bit more effort and left me feeling uncomfortable.
So going forward, I’ll be harmonizing the two characters, and Oisein will be the same/have the same outlook. I definitely fell into the trap of feeling they had to be gender-selectable, but I’m happy to be true to their character now!
I hope that you’ll still enjoy him and the friendship or romance that may develop with them, and thank you for understanding! ❤️
Gotten into a good rhythm the last couple of weeks - I feel like I’ve finally ridden out some burnout and have some of my spark back! I’ve managed to write a good amount of chunks for the Albatross path of Ch 4 … but transitions are still a bit (beloathed) haha. Working to make things flow!
