Paracosia
Introduction
Hi, I discovered the word "paracosm" as a kid, and it's stuck. Paracosia is something I've had in the works since March 2008—my imaginary world. It keeps me going.
This site is meant to be a place for me to archive lore, characters, writing… many things.
What is Paracosia?
The name Paracosia/Parakosya is derived from the word "paracosm". It is a world I've had in development since childhood… though I suppose "world" does not properly convey the scale. It's a playground of sorts for many ideas and interests of mine. There are different realm, including an afterlife, where deities reside. While there is no main protagonist, there are many characters with their own motives. Most of them are mortals trying to survive on a planet created by sadistic gods.
A lonely god creates the universe, and has to live with the consequences. The current focus is on planet Hangarin, where I've got multiple stories in mind, all of them standalone. Expect interpersonal drama, with horror and fantastical elements.
The one planet that actually made creator Pamaragul happy, after being unsatisfied with their own works for so long, ended up getting screwed over. And it's their doing. But they can't bring themself to destroy this collaborative effort, despite peers suggesting they do so if it's causing them so much grief. After centuries of self-isolation, tending to other things in a fruitless effort to bring back that spark, finally, something on Hangarin piques their interest…
Current Focus: "hell cruise"/The Paragon
(the name is temporary. a more suitable title will happen…. eventually)
