Shaman
By @Илья Маненок
In a world ravaged by parasitic spirits, Hs sh, a reclusive shaman, carries the weight of a dying land. Gifted with the forbidden ability to consume these spectral entities, he struggles to contain the corruption that gnaws at both the world and his very soul. Each spirit devoured grants him immense power but also whispers insidious temptations, blurring the line between protector and monster. As an ancient, insidious blight resurfaces, threatening to drown all of existence in a tide of madness, Hs sh must confront his growing internal darkness. The fate of humanity hinges not just on his power, but on whether he can master the malevolent forces within before they consume him entirely, turning the world's last hope into its greatest terror.

Shaman in the Toon World
By @Anna Horokhovatska
Elara, a revered shaman, met a peaceful end, fulfilling her destiny. Yet, cosmic powers, in a grave error, plucked her soul from the afterlife. To escape annihilation, she's thrust into a horrifying rebirth: the protagonist of a forgotten animated ghost cartoon. Armed with a mysterious System that grants her cartoonish abilities and dark shamanic powers, Elara must navigate a world of spectral antics and existential dread. She needs to not only survive the relentless, increasingly malevolent cartoon logic but also grow strong enough to sever her unwanted connection to these cosmic puppet masters, reclaim her true spirit, and prevent the cartoon world's encroaching madness from spilling into reality. Her path to freedom is paved with bizarre horrors and ultimate power.
