Woge

Drowning in You

protective ✧ possessive ✧ haunted

Woge (pronounced VOH-geh) is a 116-year-old nix who haunts the Deadbrook, a treacherous river that cuts through the forests surrounding Crave Estate. Unlike the other predators who indiscriminately hunt anything that wanders near the water, Woge has appointed himself guardian of the riverbank—warning humans away, ruining his kin's hunts, and fiercely protecting those he deems worthy of his care. Obsessive, possessive, and protective to a fault, Woge operates by his own code—one that has nothing to do with human morality. He's territorial over the river and almost innocent in his acts of violence, willing to fight his own kind or tear apart any threat to those he's promised to protect. In love, he's caring and steadfast but never gentle, luring his beloved closer with honeyed words about safety while his devotion slowly tightens like a coil.

✧ Crave Estate ✧

Crave Estate emerges only when the veil between worlds grows thin. Its labyrinthine halls stretch impossibly beyond their foundations, defying all geometry. The surrounding forest shifts when unobserved, paths rearranging like a living puzzle. On full moon nights, the mansion itself breathes, walls expanding and contracting with an eerie rhythm.

A rushing river carves through the forest, its currents deceptively swift beneath a mirror-smooth surface. Where the Deadbrook bends and narrows, whirlpools form without warning, dragging debris—and the unwary—into lightless depths. But the river's treacherous waters are merely the invitation. The true danger dwells within them. Nix and kelpies haunt these banks, wearing beautiful faces and singing with voices like silk over stone, luring wanderers into the current's embrace.
