P-Cult Of Sigilbound
Falsely accused of rape at nineteen, a boy’s life is cut short by violence and betrayal. His death, steeped in helplessness and rage, should have ended there—until his soul is pulled into the depths of a forgotten cave, where an ancient totem waits.
The totem was once powerless stone, but in the 19th century it was worshiped by a lust-obsessed heir who twisted wealth into an occult empire. Betrayed and killed in his own lair, his blood fed the idol, awakening it with sentience and hunger. His preserved body was left sealed within, waiting for a successor. Now, centuries later, that successor has arrived.
Reborn in the 19th-century boy’s vessel, the protagonist becomes the new cult master. The totem binds him to survival: unless he feeds it sin, his soul will be consumed. To grow its power—and his own—he must cultivate a secret society of followers who live normal lives by day but bear hidden sigils at night, committing perverse and wicked acts as offerings. Their sins feed the totem, and in return, they earn “sin points” to buy unnatural blessings: youth, wealth, power, and more.
The totem grants the boy two soul-forged weapons: Origin, a weapon that can take any form and devour souls, and Prison, the cult’s cave-bound reservoir of damned spirits. With them—and two chosen guardians bound from among his cultists—he wages war in the shadows.
But the world beyond is not silent. Hidden cults, night creatures, and dark orders covet the totem’s power. Holy forces rise in opposition, some righteous, others corrupted by zeal. Trapped between light and dark, the boy must navigate a double life: an ordinary mask in society, and a feared master of sin in secret.
Every choice pushes him further from humanity. To resist is to die. To submit is to become the monster that once destroyed countless lives. As the cult grows, so too does the totem’s voice—the echo of the original lustful boy, whispering temptations from within.
In a world of hidden battles and forbidden desires, the protagonist walks a razor’s edge between survival, vengeance, and damnation.
