'''Division:''' Son of Envy

'''Arc:''' Buzzutsu Academy

'''Date:''' September 29, 2024

'''Location:''' [[Buzzutsu Academy]], [[UTC Mall]]

== Overview ==
Nicole spends a day off attempting to relax but quickly becomes frustrated when the other first-years are busy, prompting her to seek company elsewhere. After a reflective conversation with [[Eleanor Godwin|Ms. Godwin]] and [[Elysia Fielding|Elysia]] about ambition, discipline, and self-worth, she organizes a group outing to the recently reopened UTC Mall with Elysia, [[Rosalina Delmar|Rosa]], and [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]]. While framed as reconnaissance after the previous massacre, Nicole really just wants a social outing. Throughout their time at the mall, Nicole grapples with insecurity about her abilities and frustration over being excluded from deeper academy matters, leading to a tense but revealing conversation with Rosa about secrecy, responsibility, and belonging. After the two girls talk, Nicole’s curiosity is ignited about larger forces beyond the academy.

== Detailed Plot Summary ==
Nicole wakes up late after an exhausting and unsuccessful training session with [[Magnus Ulthane|Magnus]], still bruised but unwilling to seek healing. With a free day ahead, she attempts to rally the other first-years, only to find [[Troy Demasters|Troy]] training and [[Diego de la Vega|Diego]] busy with work. Frustrated and restless, she heads to the library, where she asks Ms. Godwin for books about Jun-Jun—a sorcerer who overcame low cursed energy through physical mastery. Ms. Godwin challenges Nicole’s mindset, emphasizing discipline, patience, and character, subtly criticizing her recklessness.

Nicole then speaks with Elysia, who is studying anatomy in preparation for medical school. Their conversation turns personal, with Nicole expressing frustration over being labeled “gifted” her whole life while now feeling inadequate among stronger peers. Elysia offers gentle encouragement, reinforcing themes of patience and self-worth. Seeking something more engaging, Nicole proposes an outing and convinces Elysia to join her, eventually deciding to invite Rosa despite initial hesitation.

The group gathers Rosa from the Darkroom—where she is unexpectedly spending time with Duncan—and expands to include Morgana. Nicole pitches the trip to the recently reopened UTC Mall under the guise of reconnaissance after the massacre, successfully convincing both Rosa and the others. Kim reluctantly drives them, and the group arrives to find the mall bustling again despite its violent past. While they initially frame the outing as investigative, it quickly becomes a casual social excursion.

At the mall, conversations deepen. Morgana explains her heavenly restriction, revealing she cannot see or use cursed energy despite her skill as a weaponsmith, while Elysia reassures her that her worth extends beyond utility. Rosa shares her own perspective, explaining that her life has been defined by duty to the academy and that her freedom has only recently expanded.

Nicole becomes increasingly suspicious of Rosa’s behavior, noticing her technique subtly diverting attention and making it difficult to track her movements. This leads to a private confrontation, where Nicole accuses Rosa of hiding things and excluding her. Rosa pushes back, emphasizing hierarchy, secrecy, and the limits of Nicole’s authority as a first-year, while also revealing that larger forces beyond the academy are being monitored. Though tense, the conversation softens as Nicole expresses her desire to help and defines friendship on her own terms, leading to a tentative understanding between them.

By the end of the outing, the group finds no cursed residuals and prepares to leave. However, Nicole remains preoccupied with Rosa’s hints about external threats, her curiosity reignited. The chapter closes with Nicole considering further investigation, suggesting that what lies beyond the academy may soon become far more important than what lies within it.

|-
! Date !! Event
|-
| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

====[[Raphael versus the Emissary]]====
[[Raphael|Gabriel]] discovers his parents have been murdered by [[Emissary of Sin|Vetra]], a fanatic emissary of [[Sin]] seeking ancient artifacts tied to his lineage.

|-
| September 29, 2024 ||
====[[Girls Shopping Trip]]====
On a rare day off, Nicole organizes a trip to the rebuilt UTC Mall with Elysia, Rosa, and [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]], using it as both a social outing and informal reconnaissance.

Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rosa, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rosa face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

|-

Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this.

Meanwhile, the curses settle their differences and team up to escape from Silas' curse prison. They succeed and break out, only to find Warren waiting for them outside. Melanie does not reveal Caspian's betrayal. Warren and his curses accompany him in Silas' auction.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

However, he agrees to postpone his vengeance.

Suddenly, Raphael appears and attempts to consume Envy.

|}

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

'''Division:''' Son of Envy

'''Arc:''' Buzzutsu Academy

'''Date:''' September 20, 2024

'''Locations:''' Umbwe, Mt. Kilimanjaro

== Overview ==
[[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah’s]] quiet life in Umbwe is shattered when he returns home to find his parents brutally murdered. Driven by grief and vengeance, he confronts [[Emissary of Sin|Vetra]], an emissary of Sin who reveals his connection to an ancient lineage tasked with opposing her order. Though gravely wounded, Gabriel’s dormant power awakens, transforming his weapon and enabling him to battle Vetra across supernatural terrain, including the blood-flooded slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Through visions of ancestral memory and the rediscovery of his “gift,” Gabriel ultimately overcomes her. Rejecting hatred, he offers forgiveness and chooses a new purpose: to gather the artifacts of Sin, resurrect the entity himself, and defeat it. He leaves behind his old identity, taking the name Raphael.

== Detailed Plot Summary ==
Gabriel experiences strange heart palpitations and visions during his shift at a mountain souvenir shop. He gets sent home early and returns home to Umbwe only to discover a trail of blood leading into his family house. Inside, he finds his mother already dead and his father mortally wounded. In his final moments, his father urges Gabriel to “remember the past” and “defeat sin,” leaving the young man devastated but determined to avenge them.

Outside the house, Gabriel encounters Vetra, a hardened emissary of the cult known as the [[Children of Eden]]. She explains her long history with the order, her betrayal, and her mission to resurrect Sin using ancient artifacts tied to Gabriel’s lineage — the [[Olobukuns]]. Recognizing Gabriel’s latent power, she attempts to kill him before he can become a threat. Despite being fatally wounded, Gabriel’s “gift” manifests in a burst of golden light that heals him and transforms his axe, [[Fuerza Cacique]], into a radiant weapon. The two engage in an intense duel, and Raphael faces off against Vetra’s ability to manipulate and travel through blood.

Their battle escalates onto the heights of Mount Kilimanjaro, where thin air and Vetra’s blood-flooding technique push Gabriel to the brink of suffocation. In a vision of ancestral memory, he learns to draw strength and breath from his own heart rather than the air around him. Returning to the fight empowered, he wounds Vetra mortally. Instead of killing her outright, Gabriel offers forgiveness and invites her to help him oppose Sin, revealing his resolve to break the cycle of vengeance between their peoples.

Rejecting his mercy, Vetra mocks his idealism as Gabriel chooses a new path. He decides to gather the seven artifacts himself, resurrect Sin, and ultimately destroy the god to fulfill his father’s dying wish. Renouncing his former identity, he adopts the name Raphael and departs Kilimanjaro with renewed purpose, guided by ancestral memory and the steady light of his awakened gift.

== Key Events ==

* Gabriel experiences heart palpitations and prophetic visions.
* He discovers his parents murdered and receives his father’s final directive to defeat Sin.

|-
! Date !! Event
|-
| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

|-
| September 8, 2024 ||
====[[Magnus Joins the Academy]]====
[[Magnus Ulthane]], the famed “Bear of Russia,” arrives at Buzzutsu Academy and immediately demands a sparring exhibition.

|-
| September 20, 2024 ||
====[[Renzo Leaves the Academy]]====
After suffering a haunting nightmare tied to his failure at the UTC Massacre, Troy secretly leaves the academy and visits Warren’s grave, questioning whether he should abandon sorcery altogether.

====[[Raphael versus the Emissary]]====
[[Raphael|Gabriel]] discovers his parents have been murdered by [[Emissary of Sin|Vetra]], a fanatic emissary of [[Sin]] seeking ancient artifacts tied to his lineage. After awakening his latent gift and surviving a brutal battle with her atop Mount Kilimanjaro, he defeats Vetra and resolves to resurrect Sin himself in order to ultimately destroy him.
|-
| September 29, 2024 ||
====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

====Raphael and Sloth====
Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rosa, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rosa face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

====Raphael and Gluttony====
Raphael completes the Trial of Gluttony and consumes the Artifact of Gluttony.
|-
| October 6, 2024 ||

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this.

Meanwhile, the curses settle their differences and team up to escape from Silas' curse prison. They succeed and break out, only to find Warren waiting for them outside. Melanie does not reveal Caspian's betrayal. Warren and his curses accompany him in Silas' auction.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

Nicole reveals the truth to Melanie and they agree to a truce. A trembling Envy is detained by Nicole. Troy tearfully carries out Jack's broken body, to which Diego reacts angrily. However, he agrees to postpone his vengeance.

Suddenly, Raphael appears and attempts to consume Envy. He fatally wounds Envy and is about to consume his power, but Bagwis, Lily, and Lenny appear through a portal and kill Raphael with a powerful Eaze weapon.

|}

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.

===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.

| September 29, 2024 ||
====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

====Raphael and Sloth====
Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rosa, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rosa face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this.

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

|-
! Date !! Event
|-
| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

When he returns to the courtyard, there is some commotion. Diego takes this moment to introduce Troy to [[Bagwis Navarro|Bagwis]], [[Lily Valladares|Lily]], [[Duncan Cypher|Duncan]], and [[Sasha Finlay|Sasha]]. Mr. C's reputation as the strongest leads [[Magnus Ulthane]] to transfer to Buzzutsu Academy as its first international student. When he arrives, he seeks to challenge each student to a sparring match in order to prove his strength as a sorcerer. After besting many of the students, he asks Troy to fight him, but Troy is reluctant. However, Magnus goads Troy into a fight and the battle is much closer than anyone anticipated. Because of Troy's strength, Magnus grows to respect him. Magnus spars with Mr. C and is handily defeated.

====Diego's Magnum Opus/Morgana Repairs Caduceus Staff====
Diego's older brother, [[Fenix de la Vega]], visits Buzzutsu Academy. The two of them catch up. Fenix has a meaningful exchange with Mr. C. The brothers decide to go to the comics store. After an hour of browsing, a curse appears outside. The two brothers handily defeat it and return to the Academy.

After Fenix leaves, Diego talks to Elysia. She shares a story with him of what happened earlier that day. Meanwhile, Magnus has accidentally broken Elysia's caduceus staff. Elysia asks [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]] if she can repair it for her. Morgana says she can, but needs Elysia to go out and collect an assortment of materials first. Elysia takes Renzo with her to find everything on the list. Diego and Fenix spend the day together and eventually visit a comic book shop. While they are there, a curse materializes outside and Fenix defeats it easily by using "Reverse Lethality" on a comic book. Elysia and Renzo struggle to find the last material on Morgana's list: limited edition potato chips sold out in every store. After driving all through the night, they finally find the last bag at a remote convenience store, but just as Renzo grabs one end of it another customer grabs the other end. Renzo becomes visibly upset and starts changing his gear, scaring the customer. Elysia apologizes and the two leave with the bag of chips. Morgana reveals that the chips were not necessary for the repairs and that she just wanted them, to the bemusement of Elysia and Renzo. We see Diego working on his magnum opus: a painting of him and his brother.

====Renzo Leaves the Academy====
At the academy, Troy has a nightmare about a snake, who defeats him and berates his weakness. After the nightmare, he wakes up in a cold sweat. His guilt drives him to travel to Warren's grave and apologize for not moving away with him. Eventually, Renzo shows up and takes him to the [[Blue Rose Speedway]]. Renzo reveals that his true passion is working on cars, and that he only participated in the academy because he felt like he had to. He claims that he never wanted to be a hero and that he feels more fulfilled with his girlfriend and her son outside of the Academy. Troy agrees with Renzo, saying that he's only at the academy as a means to avenge his friends, and says he's making the decision to leave too. However, Renzo tells Troy that he's wrong, and that he has grown to connect with the people at the academy and find purpose there. While Troy thinks on this, Rose shows up, and reveals she has been watching Troy. She encourages him and reveals something big is going on related to the UTC Massacre. Troy is convinced and says he's going back to the Academy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.

====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

Diego creates a shikigami rabbit and names it Mylo. Everyone thinks Mylo is great until it starts creating a mess of Buzzutsu Academy. Meanwhile, Bagwis is upset with Diego because Mylo tore through his favorite shirt. Lily comforts Bagwis and the Buzzutsu sorcerers devise a way to capture Mylo. The girls return to the academy, find it a total mess, and decide to go back out for ice cream.

====Raphael and Sloth====
Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rose, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rose face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

====Raphael and Gluttony====
Raphael completes the Trial of Gluttony and consumes the Artifact of Gluttony.
|-
| October 11-15, 2024 ||
====Mystery of Ammiton====
Troy, Diego, Nicole, and Connor are sent to investigate the disappearances of several people on [[Bununu Island]] off the Florida coast. The villagers claim they can hear singing and see a blue light outside their windows at night. The elder priest, [[Father Reagan]], suggests that God is passing judgment on the people of the village. The sorcerers stay in the home of [[Carlos Olivera]] while they look into the disappearances. They discover that the true cause of the murders is [[Ammiton]], a curse born of zealous judgment. He resembles a monstrous angler fish, but disguises himself as a beautiful angel to lure in his victims. Connor mutters Ammiton's name, but the others are unsure how he knows it. The sorcerers attempt to thwart the curse over several days but are unsuccessful, for it inexplicably disappears at daybreak. In their off time, they spend some time relaxing at the beach.

One night, Troy hears a crash as Carlos is lured out of the house by the blue light. He hurriedly wakes the others and they follow Carlos to the sea, where Ammiton is waiting. Nicole is prepared this time, and pretends to be lured by Ammiton in order to shove a bookunai into his gut. This spooks Ammiton away, and Nicole has a vision of someone looking out from atop the nearby lighthouse. The four run to the lighthouse and confront Father Reagan, who has been controlling Ammiton with a cursed object. The priest reveals himself to be a curse user who has tasked himself with cleansing the island of its wickedness. He uses the cursed object to summon Ammiton and a battle ensues. The sorcerers defeat Father Reagan and recover the cursed object. A withering Ammiton mutters a final word: "deceiver."

Father Reagan is detained by the sorcerers and brought back to the academy. After Father Reagan is questioned by the teachers, Connor confronts him. Father Reagan says that he will reveal Connor's true identity to the academy unless he allows him to escape. In response, Connor kills Father Reagan and stages it as a suicide.

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

====Pursuing Jack====
After the siege on Buzzutsu Academy, Rose, Magnus, and Diego are gravely wounded. Fenix is dead. Cypher, Sasha, Bagwis, Lily, and Lenny are nowhere to be found. Elysia is tending to the wounds of the sorcerers, but even her powers are limited.

The teachers return to the academy after their fight with Raphael, but they too are hurt badly, save for Mr. C. Diego lashes out at the teachers, blaming them for leaving and causing his brother's death.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this. Suddenly, something attacks the Drake Worm, sending it crashing to the ground. The curses are surrounded by [[Silas A. Greaves]] and his crew of curse users. Drew Scott escapes through a portal, but the others are apprehended and brought to Silas' curse prison.

Meanwhile, the curses settle their differences and team up to escape from Silas' curse prison. They succeed and break out, only to find Warren waiting for them outside. Melanie does not reveal Caspian's betrayal. Warren and his curses accompany him in Silas' auction.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

Suddenly, all hell breaks loose. The barrier preventing sorcery within the Auction is disabled and fighting occurs between the Buzzutsu sorcerers and Warren's curse allies. Warren escapes. It is revealed that is was Caspian who disabled the barrier in an attempt to stop Warren.

====Raphael and Pride====
Raphael attempts to acquire the Artifact of Pride, but finds the trial much more difficult than expected.
|-
| October 28, 2024 ||
====Warren Monologue/Caspian Death====
When Caspian returns to Warren's base of operations in New York, he confronts his brother. Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

====The COVID Threat====
Warren broadcasts his demands to the entire US: that he and all cursed spirits be granted inalienable rights or else he will unleash COVID and kill millions.

The Buzzutsu sorcerers track Warren down and confront him. He attempts to unleash COVID, but Connor double-crosses him and awakens COVID prematurely. Warren summons his curse army and a battle ensues.

Diego is infected by COVID and Morgana amputates his arm. Magnus sees killing COVID as his destiny, but Mr. C stops him and takes COVID on himself. COVID is defeated along with Warren's curse army. Warren, Jack, and Melanie are forced to retreat.

Nicole reveals the truth to Melanie and they agree to a truce. A trembling Envy is detained by Nicole. Troy tearfully carries out Jack's broken body, to which Diego reacts angrily. However, he agrees to postpone his vengeance.

Suddenly, Raphael appears and attempts to consume Envy. He fatally wounds Envy and is about to consume his power, but Bagwis, Lily, and Lenny appear through a portal and kill Raphael with a powerful Eaze weapon.

|}

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

Chicken Man Rampage

2026-03-02T21:24:44Z

Rhianan:

'''Division:''' Son of Envy

'''Arc:''' Buzzutsu Academy

'''Date:''' September 4, 2024

'''Location:''' Government Facility

== Overview ==
A government lab’s [[Chicken Man|cursed specimen]] escapes, killing researchers and destabilizing the facility. [[Buzzutsu Academy]] first-years [[Troy Demasters|Troy]], [[Diego de la Vega|Diego]], and [[Nicole Brooks|Nicole]] deploy with Captain [[Ezekiel Delmar|Zeke Delmar]] and [[Mikhail Mrchofrey|Dr. Mrchofrey]] to locate and incapacitate the target. The team is separated by a security gate trap; flooding begins as the facility’s underwater containment protocols activate, and evidence suggests the lockdown is not accidental. In a desperate final engagement, Nicole identifies blood as the curse’s fuel, Diego improvises a blood-draining construct, and the team prevents the curse from healing long enough to contain it—resulting in a mysterious '''giant egg'''. Dr. Mrchofrey and [[Purge Corps]] immediately seize control of the aftermath and silence the students.
== Detailed Plot Summary ==
Troy, Nicole, and Diego are summoned to [[Pavel Constantinescu|Mr. C’s]] office, where they meet Dr. Mrchofrey of the Department of Supernatural Research and Captain Ezekiel “Zeke” Delmar of the Purge Corps. They learn that Buzzutsu Academy is federally subsidized and obligated to assist military operations. A cursed specimen has escaped containment within a government research facility, killing multiple researchers. The team is tasked with locating and incapacitating the target. Using the academy’s think tank, they teleport to a corresponding chamber inside the damaged facility.

Upon arrival, they discover blood-stained corridors, destroyed security systems, and mutilated bodies showing signs of deliberate harvesting—major muscle groups removed and bone marrow scraped. The containment chamber reveals heavy experimentation, including mechanized restraint arms and pools of blood and feathers. Nicole challenges Dr. Mrchofrey’s ethics, but before tensions can escalate further, a screech echoes through the facility. The team splits up: Zeke, Troy, and Nicole pursue the curse, while Diego is sent with Mrchofrey to restore backup power.

As they track the creature, Nicole is suddenly sealed off by a descending security gate triggered from above. Troy attempts to break through but fails. Zeke reveals critical withheld information: the facility is an underwater containment structure two miles below the surface, and failed lockdown procedures trigger rapid flooding. Meanwhile, Diego successfully activates the generator but is trapped in lockdown and attacked by a swarm of imp-like curses. Forced to improvise, he escapes using constructs that inadvertently rupture part of the facility’s hull, accelerating flooding.

Nicole encounters Dr. Kafka, a surviving scientist, who explains that lockdown will only end once cursed activity is neutralized. Kafka is abruptly killed by the escaped specimen: a towering humanoid creature with a chicken’s head, sewn-shut eyes, and blood-soaked feathers—later dubbed “Chicken Man.” Nicole narrowly escapes, plants a [[bookunai]] in the creature, and retrieves classified documentation referencing the “Sunrise Project.” While psychically probing the curse’s mind, she repeatedly hears a single word: “Father.”

Troy and Zeke reunite with Diego as flooding intensifies. They follow residual cursed energy and encounter Chicken Man in combat with Nicole’s shikigami, [[Jingle]]. The curse brutally tears Jingle apart and demonstrates rapid regeneration far beyond what low-level curses should possess. During combat, Diego is severely injured, and the team struggles to counter the creature’s healing ability.

Nicole deduces that Chicken Man’s regeneration is fueled by blood, explaining the surgical nature of the victims’ injuries. As flooding reaches critical levels and Zeke reveals the facility is also rigged to explode if deemed unsalvageable, the team executes a coordinated plan. Diego deploys a construct that drains the curse’s blood, preventing regeneration. Zeke and Troy strike in tandem, volleying the weakened curse between them while it is unable to heal. Though Troy exhausts himself nearly to collapse, the blood depletion renders Chicken Man unstable.

Nicole dives deeper into the curse’s consciousness and reaches a glowing internal “heart,” where she encounters an infant-like presence radiating power and repeating the word “Father.” She is forcibly expelled from the mental space as facility systems deactivate. Flooding ceases, and instead of dying, the curse manifests as a massive egg devoid of leaking cursed energy.

Troy attempts to shatter the egg but fails; it appears to redirect or nullify cursed energy defensively. Zeke carries the egg back to Dr. Mrchofrey, who expresses satisfaction at its condition and dismisses the team. Troy confronts the Doctor over the deaths of the researchers, while Nicole accuses him of orchestrating the lockdown and flooding to preserve his experiment. Zeke blocks further confrontation, declaring the matter under Purge Corps jurisdiction and ordering the students to leave.

Before departing, Nicole taunts Mrchofrey by implying the curse spoke to her, provoking visible concern. The team returns to Buzzutsu Academy battered and shaken. Troy secretly keeps the red comb torn from Chicken Man’s head as a reminder of the mission. Though alive, all three are left deeply affected by the cover-up, the mysterious “Father,” and the unresolved implications of the Sunrise Project.

== Key Events ==
* BZA first-years deployed to federal research facility.

* Discovery of mutilated researchers and signs of unethical experimentation.

* Nicole separated by triggered security gate.

* Facility revealed to be an underwater containment cell with flooding protocol.

* Diego activates generator, is trapped, and breaches facility hull during escape.

* Chicken Man kills Dr. Kafka.

* Chicken Man destroys Jingle and exhibits abnormal regeneration.

* Nicole determines regeneration is fueled by blood.

* Facility revealed to be rigged to explode if deemed unsalvageable.

* Coordinated blood-draining strategy prevents curse healing.

* Purge Corps seizes jurisdiction and suppresses accountability.

* Nicole uncovers reference to “Sunrise Project.”

* The word “Father” identified within the curse’s consciousness.

* Troy keeps Chicken Man’s red comb.

|-
! Date !! Event
|-
| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

|-
| September 8, 2024 ||
====Magnus Joins the Academy====
Troy takes a morning run at [[Ricketts Glen State Park]]. When he gets back, Ms. Godwin busts him for using the think tank without permission. When he returns to the courtyard, there is some commotion. Diego takes this moment to introduce Troy to [[Bagwis Navarro|Bagwis]], [[Lily Valladares|Lily]], [[Duncan Cypher|Duncan]], and [[Sasha Finlay|Sasha]]. Mr. C's reputation as the strongest leads [[Magnus Ulthane]] to transfer to Buzzutsu Academy as its first international student. When he arrives, he seeks to challenge each student to a sparring match in order to prove his strength as a sorcerer. After besting many of the students, he asks Troy to fight him, but Troy is reluctant. However, Magnus goads Troy into a fight and the battle is much closer than anyone anticipated. Because of Troy's strength, Magnus grows to respect him. Magnus spars with Mr. C and is handily defeated.
|-
| September 16, 2024 ||
====Diego's Magnum Opus/Morgana Repairs Caduceus Staff====
Diego's older brother, [[Fenix de la Vega]], visits Buzzutsu Academy. The two of them catch up. Fenix has a meaningful exchange with Mr. C. The brothers decide to go to the comics store. After an hour of browsing, a curse appears outside. The two brothers handily defeat it and return to the Academy.

After Fenix leaves, Diego talks to Elysia. She shares a story with him of what happened earlier that day. Meanwhile, Magnus has accidentally broken Elysia's caduceus staff. Elysia asks [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]] if she can repair it for her. Morgana says she can, but needs Elysia to go out and collect an assortment of materials first. Elysia takes Renzo with her to find everything on the list. Diego and Fenix spend the day together and eventually visit a comic book shop. While they are there, a curse materializes outside and Fenix defeats it easily by using "Reverse Lethality" on a comic book. Elysia and Renzo struggle to find the last material on Morgana's list: limited edition potato chips sold out in every store. After driving all through the night, they finally find the last bag at a remote convenience store, but just as Renzo grabs one end of it another customer grabs the other end. Renzo becomes visibly upset and starts changing his gear, scaring the customer. Elysia apologizes and the two leave with the bag of chips. Morgana reveals that the chips were not necessary for the repairs and that she just wanted them, to the bemusement of Elysia and Renzo. We see Diego working on his magnum opus: a painting of him and his brother.
|-
| September 20, 2024 ||
====Renzo Leaves the Academy====
At the academy, Troy has a nightmare about a snake, who defeats him and berates his weakness. After the nightmare, he wakes up in a cold sweat. His guilt drives him to travel to Warren's grave and apologize for not moving away with him. Eventually, Renzo shows up and takes him to the [[Blue Rose Speedway]]. Renzo reveals that his true passion is working on cars, and that he only participated in the academy because he felt like he had to. He claims that he never wanted to be a hero and that he feels more fulfilled with his girlfriend and her son outside of the Academy. Troy agrees with Renzo, saying that he's only at the academy as a means to avenge his friends, and says he's making the decision to leave too. However, Renzo tells Troy that he's wrong, and that he has grown to connect with the people at the academy and find purpose there. While Troy thinks on this, Rose shows up, and reveals she has been watching Troy. She encourages him and reveals something big is going on related to the UTC Massacre. Troy is convinced and says he's going back to the Academy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.
|-
| September 29, 2024 ||
====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

Diego creates a shikigami rabbit and names it Mylo. Everyone thinks Mylo is great until it starts creating a mess of Buzzutsu Academy. Meanwhile, Bagwis is upset with Diego because Mylo tore through his favorite shirt. Lily comforts Bagwis and the Buzzutsu sorcerers devise a way to capture Mylo. The girls return to the academy, find it a total mess, and decide to go back out for ice cream.

====Raphael and Sloth====
Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rose, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rose face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

====Raphael and Gluttony====
Raphael completes the Trial of Gluttony and consumes the Artifact of Gluttony.
|-
| October 11-15, 2024 ||
====Mystery of Ammiton====
Troy, Diego, Nicole, and Connor are sent to investigate the disappearances of several people on [[Bununu Island]] off the Florida coast. The villagers claim they can hear singing and see a blue light outside their windows at night. The elder priest, [[Father Reagan]], suggests that God is passing judgment on the people of the village. The sorcerers stay in the home of [[Carlos Olivera]] while they look into the disappearances. They discover that the true cause of the murders is [[Ammiton]], a curse born of zealous judgment. He resembles a monstrous angler fish, but disguises himself as a beautiful angel to lure in his victims. Connor mutters Ammiton's name, but the others are unsure how he knows it. The sorcerers attempt to thwart the curse over several days but are unsuccessful, for it inexplicably disappears at daybreak. In their off time, they spend some time relaxing at the beach.

One night, Troy hears a crash as Carlos is lured out of the house by the blue light. He hurriedly wakes the others and they follow Carlos to the sea, where Ammiton is waiting. Nicole is prepared this time, and pretends to be lured by Ammiton in order to shove a bookunai into his gut. This spooks Ammiton away, and Nicole has a vision of someone looking out from atop the nearby lighthouse. The four run to the lighthouse and confront Father Reagan, who has been controlling Ammiton with a cursed object. The priest reveals himself to be a curse user who has tasked himself with cleansing the island of its wickedness. He uses the cursed object to summon Ammiton and a battle ensues. The sorcerers defeat Father Reagan and recover the cursed object. A withering Ammiton mutters a final word: "deceiver."

Father Reagan is detained by the sorcerers and brought back to the academy. After Father Reagan is questioned by the teachers, Connor confronts him. Father Reagan says that he will reveal Connor's true identity to the academy unless he allows him to escape. In response, Connor kills Father Reagan and stages it as a suicide.
|-
| October 23, 2024 ||

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

====Pursuing Jack====
After the siege on Buzzutsu Academy, Rose, Magnus, and Diego are gravely wounded. Fenix is dead. Cypher, Sasha, Bagwis, Lily, and Lenny are nowhere to be found. Elysia is tending to the wounds of the sorcerers, but even her powers are limited.

The teachers return to the academy after their fight with Raphael, but they too are hurt badly, save for Mr. C. Diego lashes out at the teachers, blaming them for leaving and causing his brother's death.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this. Suddenly, something attacks the Drake Worm, sending it crashing to the ground. The curses are surrounded by [[Silas A. Greaves]] and his crew of curse users. Drew Scott escapes through a portal, but the others are apprehended and brought to Silas' curse prison.

Meanwhile, the curses settle their differences and team up to escape from Silas' curse prison. They succeed and break out, only to find Warren waiting for them outside. Melanie does not reveal Caspian's betrayal. Warren and his curses accompany him in Silas' auction.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

Suddenly, all hell breaks loose. The barrier preventing sorcery within the Auction is disabled and fighting occurs between the Buzzutsu sorcerers and Warren's curse allies. Warren escapes. It is revealed that is was Caspian who disabled the barrier in an attempt to stop Warren.

====Raphael and Pride====
Raphael attempts to acquire the Artifact of Pride, but finds the trial much more difficult than expected.
|-
| October 28, 2024 ||
====Warren Monologue/Caspian Death====
When Caspian returns to Warren's base of operations in New York, he confronts his brother. Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

Nicole reveals the truth to Melanie and they agree to a truce. A trembling Envy is detained by Nicole. Troy tearfully carries out Jack's broken body, to which Diego reacts angrily. However, he agrees to postpone his vengeance.

Suddenly, Raphael appears and attempts to consume Envy.

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

|-
! Date !! Event
|-
| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

When he returns to the courtyard, there is some commotion. Diego takes this moment to introduce Troy to [[Bagwis Navarro|Bagwis]], [[Lily Valladares|Lily]], [[Duncan Cypher|Duncan]], and [[Sasha Finlay|Sasha]]. Mr. C's reputation as the strongest leads [[Magnus Ulthane]] to transfer to Buzzutsu Academy as its first international student. When he arrives, he seeks to challenge each student to a sparring match in order to prove his strength as a sorcerer. After besting many of the students, he asks Troy to fight him, but Troy is reluctant. However, Magnus goads Troy into a fight and the battle is much closer than anyone anticipated. Because of Troy's strength, Magnus grows to respect him. Magnus spars with Mr. C and is handily defeated.

After Fenix leaves, Diego talks to Elysia. She shares a story with him of what happened earlier that day. Meanwhile, Magnus has accidentally broken Elysia's caduceus staff. Elysia asks [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]] if she can repair it for her. Morgana says she can, but needs Elysia to go out and collect an assortment of materials first. Elysia takes Renzo with her to find everything on the list. Diego and Fenix spend the day together and eventually visit a comic book shop. While they are there, a curse materializes outside and Fenix defeats it easily by using "Reverse Lethality" on a comic book. Elysia and Renzo struggle to find the last material on Morgana's list: limited edition potato chips sold out in every store. After driving all through the night, they finally find the last bag at a remote convenience store, but just as Renzo grabs one end of it another customer grabs the other end. Renzo becomes visibly upset and starts changing his gear, scaring the customer. Elysia apologizes and the two leave with the bag of chips. Morgana reveals that the chips were not necessary for the repairs and that she just wanted them, to the bemusement of Elysia and Renzo. We see Diego working on his magnum opus: a painting of him and his brother.
|-
| September 20, 2024 ||
====Renzo Leaves the Academy====
At the academy, Troy has a nightmare about a snake, who defeats him and berates his weakness. After the nightmare, he wakes up in a cold sweat. His guilt drives him to travel to Warren's grave and apologize for not moving away with him. Eventually, Renzo shows up and takes him to the [[Blue Rose Speedway]]. Renzo reveals that his true passion is working on cars, and that he only participated in the academy because he felt like he had to. He claims that he never wanted to be a hero and that he feels more fulfilled with his girlfriend and her son outside of the Academy. Troy agrees with Renzo, saying that he's only at the academy as a means to avenge his friends, and says he's making the decision to leave too. However, Renzo tells Troy that he's wrong, and that he has grown to connect with the people at the academy and find purpose there. While Troy thinks on this, Rose shows up, and reveals she has been watching Troy. She encourages him and reveals something big is going on related to the UTC Massacre. Troy is convinced and says he's going back to the Academy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.

====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

Diego creates a shikigami rabbit and names it Mylo. Everyone thinks Mylo is great until it starts creating a mess of Buzzutsu Academy. Meanwhile, Bagwis is upset with Diego because Mylo tore through his favorite shirt. Lily comforts Bagwis and the Buzzutsu sorcerers devise a way to capture Mylo. The girls return to the academy, find it a total mess, and decide to go back out for ice cream.

| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rose, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rose face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

Raphael completes the Trial of Gluttony and consumes the Artifact of Gluttony.
|-
| October 11-15, 2024 ||
====Mystery of Ammiton====
Troy, Diego, Nicole, and Connor are sent to investigate the disappearances of several people on [[Bununu Island]] off the Florida coast. The villagers claim they can hear singing and see a blue light outside their windows at night. The elder priest, [[Father Reagan]], suggests that God is passing judgment on the people of the village. The sorcerers stay in the home of [[Carlos Olivera]] while they look into the disappearances. They discover that the true cause of the murders is [[Ammiton]], a curse born of zealous judgment. He resembles a monstrous angler fish, but disguises himself as a beautiful angel to lure in his victims. Connor mutters Ammiton's name, but the others are unsure how he knows it. The sorcerers attempt to thwart the curse over several days but are unsuccessful, for it inexplicably disappears at daybreak. In their off time, they spend some time relaxing at the beach.

One night, Troy hears a crash as Carlos is lured out of the house by the blue light. He hurriedly wakes the others and they follow Carlos to the sea, where Ammiton is waiting. Nicole is prepared this time, and pretends to be lured by Ammiton in order to shove a bookunai into his gut. This spooks Ammiton away, and Nicole has a vision of someone looking out from atop the nearby lighthouse. The four run to the lighthouse and confront Father Reagan, who has been controlling Ammiton with a cursed object. The priest reveals himself to be a curse user who has tasked himself with cleansing the island of its wickedness. He uses the cursed object to summon Ammiton and a battle ensues. The sorcerers defeat Father Reagan and recover the cursed object. A withering Ammiton mutters a final word: "deceiver."

Father Reagan is detained by the sorcerers and brought back to the academy. After Father Reagan is questioned by the teachers, Connor confronts him. Father Reagan says that he will reveal Connor's true identity to the academy unless he allows him to escape. In response, Connor kills Father Reagan and stages it as a suicide.
|-

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this. Suddenly, something attacks the Drake Worm, sending it crashing to the ground. The curses are surrounded by [[Silas A. Greaves]] and his crew of curse users.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

|-
| October 28, 2024 ||
====Warren Monologue/Caspian Death====
When Caspian returns to Warren's base of operations in New York, he confronts his brother. Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

Mr. C's reputation as the strongest leads [[Magnus Ulthane]] to transfer to Buzzutsu Academy as its first international student. When he arrives, he seeks to challenge each student to a sparring match in order to prove his strength as a sorcerer. After besting many of the students, he asks Troy to fight him, but Troy is reluctant. However, Magnus goads Troy into a fight and the battle is much closer than anyone anticipated.

After Fenix leaves, Diego talks to Elysia. She shares a story with him of what happened earlier that day. Meanwhile, Magnus has accidentally broken Elysia's caduceus staff. Elysia asks [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]] if she can repair it for her. Morgana says she can, but needs Elysia to go out and collect an assortment of materials first. Elysia takes Renzo with her to find everything on the list. Diego and Fenix spend the day together and eventually visit a comic book shop. While they are there, a curse materializes outside and Fenix defeats it easily by using "Reverse Lethality" on a comic book. Elysia and Renzo struggle to find the last material on Morgana's list: limited edition potato chips sold out in every store. After driving all through the night, they finally find the last bag at a remote convenience store, but just as Renzo grabs one end of it another customer grabs the other end. Renzo becomes visibly upset and starts changing his gear, scaring the customer. Elysia apologizes and the two leave with the bag of chips. Morgana reveals that the chips were not necessary for the repairs and that she just wanted them, to the bemusement of Elysia and Renzo. We see Diego working on his magnum opus: a painting of him and his brother.
|-
| September 20, 2024 ||
====Renzo Leaves the Academy====
At the academy, Troy has a nightmare about a snake, who defeats him and berates his weakness. After the nightmare, he wakes up in a cold sweat. His guilt drives him to travel to Warren's grave and apologize for not moving away with him. Eventually, Renzo shows up and takes him to the [[Blue Rose Speedway]]. Renzo reveals that his true passion is working on cars, and that he only participated in the academy because he felt like he had to. He claims that he never wanted to be a hero and that he feels more fulfilled with his girlfriend and her son outside of the Academy. Troy agrees with Renzo, saying that he's only at the academy as a means to avenge his friends, and says he's making the decision to leave too. However, Renzo tells Troy that he's wrong, and that he has grown to connect with the people at the academy and find purpose there. While Troy thinks on this, Rose shows up, and reveals she has been watching Troy. She encourages him and reveals something big is going on related to the UTC Massacre. Troy is convinced and says he's going back to the Academy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.

====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

Diego creates a shikigami rabbit and names it Mylo. Everyone thinks Mylo is great until it starts creating a mess of Buzzutsu Academy. Meanwhile, Bagwis is upset with Diego because Mylo tore through his favorite shirt. Lily comforts Bagwis and the Buzzutsu sorcerers devise a way to capture Mylo. The girls return to the academy, find it a total mess, and decide to go back out for ice cream.

Raphael completes the Trial of Sloth and consumes the Artifact of Sloth.
|-
| October 5, 2024 ||
====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rose, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rose face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

====Raphael and Gluttony====
Raphael completes the Trial of Gluttony and consumes the Artifact of Gluttony.
|-
| October 11-15, 2024 ||
====Mystery of Ammiton====
Troy, Diego, Nicole, and Connor are sent to investigate the disappearances of several people on [[Bununu Island]] off the Florida coast. The villagers claim they can hear singing and see a blue light outside their windows at night. The elder priest, [[Father Reagan]], suggests that God is passing judgment on the people of the village. The sorcerers stay in the home of [[Carlos Olivera]] while they look into the disappearances. They discover that the true cause of the murders is [[Ammiton]], a curse born of zealous judgment. He resembles a monstrous angler fish, but disguises himself as a beautiful angel to lure in his victims. Connor mutters Ammiton's name, but the others are unsure how he knows it. The sorcerers attempt to thwart the curse over several days but are unsuccessful, for it inexplicably disappears at daybreak. In their off time, they spend some time relaxing at the beach.

One night, Troy hears a crash as Carlos is lured out of the house by the blue light. He hurriedly wakes the others and they follow Carlos to the sea, where Ammiton is waiting. Nicole is prepared this time, and pretends to be lured by Ammiton in order to shove a bookunai into his gut. This spooks Ammiton away, and Nicole has a vision of someone looking out from atop the nearby lighthouse. The four run to the lighthouse and confront Father Reagan, who has been controlling Ammiton with a cursed object. The priest reveals himself to be a curse user who has tasked himself with cleansing the island of its wickedness. He uses the cursed object to summon Ammiton and a battle ensues. The sorcerers defeat Father Reagan and recover the cursed object. A withering Ammiton mutters a final word: "deceiver."

Father Reagan is detained by the sorcerers and brought back to the academy. After Father Reagan is questioned by the teachers, Connor confronts him. Father Reagan says that he will reveal Connor's true identity to the academy unless he allows him to escape. In response, Connor kills Father Reagan and stages it as a suicide.

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

====Warren Monologue/Caspian Death====
When Caspian returns to Warren's base of operations in New York, he confronts his brother. Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===
During the events of Arc 3, other areas of the world are concerned with the release of the Sins. Lust is in South America (Brazil), Gluttony in Africa, Greed in Northern Europe, Wrath in Rome, Pride in China, and Sloth in Indonesia. Following the events of Arc 3, the Buzztsu Academy sorcerers are summoned by the Buzzutsu Council to help aid the others countries in the effort to defeat the Sins. However, these sins are causing wars between countries, making the conflict hard to navigate. With the help of new, diverse student sorcerers from around the world, the trio work to subdue the Sins once and for all.

| 13.8 Billion Years Ago|| [[Aeos]] creates the [[Spirit World]] and eternal spirits to dwell within it. These spirits create cities and civilizations, but after eons of existence, many become aimless and without form.
|-
| 300,000 BCE || Aeos begins his second creation: Earth and the human race. Humans are spirits, or souls, confined to mortal bodies. These souls constantly leak cursed energy, accelerated by the presence of negative emotions. Upon death, a human's soul ascends to Heaven. Some human souls are strong enough to perceive other spirits and manipulate cursed energy. Only about 1 in 10 million humans is born with this innate technique. Despite their mortal struggle, humans flourish on the face of Earth. Spirits take great satisfaction in observing the human way of life.
|-
| 4,000 BCE ||
===Sin Millennium===
[[Sin]], the strongest of the spirits, becomes jealous of the humans. He gathers an army of spirits and tears through the veil which separates the spirit and mortal planes. The humans stand no chance against Sin, as they cannot naturally perceive spirits. Sin conquers the humans and rules over them for a millennium. The [[Sindicate|Children of Eden]], also known as the Sindicate, is a group of humans who choose to serve Sin and worship him.
|-
| 3,000 BCE ||
===Sin War===
No spirit dares to oppose Sin, save for seven: Vael, Kath, Navi, Tenet, Esma, Hoph, and Fide. These spirits grieve for the humans and ask Aeos for power so that they might be able to oppose Sin. Aeos bestows upon each of them one of his heavenly virtues: patience to Vael, chastity to Kath, diligence to Navi, temperance to Tenet, kindness to Esma, humility to Hoph, and charity to Fide. The seven virtues lead the human armies in rebellion against Sin and his spirits. The ensuing conflict, known as the Spirit War, nearly decimates the entire planet. In a final show of strength, Sin nearly kills all seven virtues. But before Sin can destroy the virtues, they shred their forms and possess the body of a powerful human warrior named Raphael. Raphael wields the might of the virtues and defeats Sin, fracturing him into the Seven Artifacts of Sin. Each virtue agrees to dwell within one of the artifacts to weaken the influence of Sin. Raphael hides these artifacts across Earth and guards them with deadly trials and powerful shikigami.

Aeos is deeply saddened by the destruction of his creation, and divides the spirit and mortal worlds so that cursed energy can no longer traverse the two. As a result, only human souls are allowed to pass through the divide. The remaining humans on Earth form twelve tribes: Olobuku, Meiyo, Isutita, Libertate, Prostates, Skjordr, Emunah, Mabadi, Comaperismo, Shantih, Zunzhong, and Nentlacatl. Raphael belongs to the Olobukun tribe, and he teaches his people how to defeat curses in preparation for their return. When Raphael passes, his children inherit his virtuous energy.

After many years free from spirits, only the Olobukun tribe still believes in their existence. As humans once again flourish and their numbers grow, more cursed energy leaks into Earth. This energy gives birth to spirits who hate humanity for their being trapped on Earth: cursed spirits. These cursed spirits are in constant agony due to no longer being able to traverse the spirit plane. The appearance of sorcerers and spirits is so rare that to this day almost all humans live blissfully unaware of their existence.

Upon Sin's defeat, the Children of Eden are exiled from human society, but secretly plot to free Sin from his bondage by combining all seven sin artifacts in a single vessel. The strongest member of the Children, known as the [[Emissary of Sin|Emissary]], is elected to act as a vessel for the sins every generation or so. They fight fiercely with the Olobukuns over the next several millennia.
|-
| 1962 || Vetra becomes the Emissary of Sin.
|-
| 1976 || Crina Constantinescu, a member of the Children of Eden, chooses to flee for the sake of her unborn son, [[Pavel Constantinescu]].
|-
| 1981 || The Emissary discovers Crina's whereabouts and executes her and her entire family as punishment. Unbeknownst to the Emissary, young Pavel survives due to his latent cursed energy healing. He is found by the Buzzutsu Council to be protected from the Children. He later assumes a prominent position within [[Buzzutsu Academy]] due to his powerful technique and takes on the name Mr. C.
|-
| 2004 || Katherine Majors gives birth to triplets: [[Warren Majors]], [[Melanie Majors]], and [[Caspian Majors]]. She and her husband, Victor Majors, are prominent members within the Sindicate.
|-
| 2015 ||
===Fall of the Sindicate===
Warren, age 11, emerges with a powerful cursed technique. The cult begins preparations to recover the Artifact of Envy and feed it to Warren. Before they can accomplish this, Olobukun and Buzzutsu sorcerers raid the Children's underground lair and slaughter its members. The Emissary is mortally wounded and accidentally bloodsteps into the Spirit World. After the battle, Pavel finds a barely alive Warren clutching the corpses of his brother and sister. Pavel sees himself in Warren, and takes pity on him. The Olobukun sorcerers approach Warren, but Pavel orders them to stand down. The Olobukuns protest, insisting that the chosen vessel for Sin cannot be left alive. Unwilling to allow Warren to die, Pavel kills the remaining members of the Olobukun tribe, save for
[[Category:Timeline|Raphael_Interlude_1#three who are absent]]
.

Pavel chooses to guide the boy towards a better path, enrolling him in Buzzutsu Academy. He adopts Warren, who lives with him until he is old enough to inherit his parent's house. Pavel lies to Warren, telling him that it was the Sindicate who killed his parents. Deeply troubled by the deaths of his family, Warren recreates his siblings as benevolent spirits. As much as he tries, he is unable to recreate his parents in a way which pleases him.
|-
| July 2024 ||
===Warren Learns the Truth===
At age 20, Warren discovers a secret message within his father's writings. This prompts him to search the house thoroughly, and he discovered a study hidden beneath the house's foundation. He learns the truth about his parents' involvement in the Sindicate, their deaths, and his destiny as the vessel of Sin. Additionally, he discovers the Artifact of Envy in the study. The journal of Warren's father reveals that he was hesitant to sacrifice his son, hiding the fact that he had claimed the Artifact of Envy from the Sindicate.

Warren returns to the scene of the Sindicate headquarters, only to find Pavel there waiting for him. Pavel confirms Warren's suspicions about his parents and attempts to console him, but Warren cannot help but feel betrayed. Pavel allows Warren to take some time off from the academy.
|-
| August 10, 2024 || While Warren is with Caspian, Melanie, [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]], and [[Troy Demasters]] at the UTC mall in Bradenton, Florida, he separates from the group. With the Artifact of Envy in hand, Warren contemplates whether he ought to consume its power. He can hear the voice within it calling out to him, begging to be opened. It is then that Warren decides what has to be done. He calls out to his brother and sister and entrusts them with the truth of his parents and the betrayal of Pavel. Caspian is hesitant, but the two agree to join him on his quest for justice. With that, he consumes the Artifact of Envy and becomes the vessel for Envy.

Cypher]] alerting the group to a curse sighting at nearby [[Pinebrook Elementary School]]. Kim argues that it would be irresponsible to bring Troy to the curse and that she should first drop him off at the academy. However, Diego, Nicole, and Troy convince her to drive to Pinebrook Elementary.

Troy, Diego, and Nicole rush into the school and encounter the [[Devious Lick]], a bipedal curse with a monstrous appetite. Despite their efforts, its skin is impervious to their attacks. Nicole devises a strategy to implant a bookunai into one of Diego's squid constructs, luring Devious Lick to consume the bookunai and reveal its weak spot. While Diego distracts Devious Lick, Troy enters it from within and Nicole directs him towards its soul. While inside Devious Lick, Troy finds four children trapped inside.

[[Ezekiel Delmar|Captain Ezekiel Delmar]] explains that the organization's sorcerers are all tied up with more important matters and so he needs to contract the academy for this job. Chief scientist [[Mikhail Mrchofrey|Doctor Mikhail Mrchofrey]] briefs Troy, Diego, and Nicole on the mission. They successfully defeat Chicken Man, but he transforms into a large indestructible egg.

When he arrives, he seeks to challenge each student to a sparring match in order to prove his strength as a sorcerer. After besting many of the students, he asks Troy to fight him, but Troy is reluctant. However, Magnus goads Troy into a fight and the battle is much closer than anyone anticipated. Because of Troy's strength, Magnus grows to respect him. Magnus spars with Mr. C and is handily defeated.

====Diego's Magnum Opus/Morgana Repairs Caduceus Staff====
Diego's older brother, [[Fenix de la Vega]], visits Buzzutsu Academy. The two of them catch up. Fenix has a meaningful exchange with Mr. C. The brothers decide to go to the comics store. After an hour of browsing, a curse appears outside. The two brothers handily defeat it and return to the Academy.

After Fenix leaves, Diego talks to Elysia. She shares a story with him of what happened earlier that day. Meanwhile, Magnus has accidentally broken Elysia's caduceus staff. Elysia asks [[Morgana Cole|Morgana]] if she can repair it for her. Morgana says she can, but needs Elysia to go out and collect an assortment of materials first. Elysia takes Renzo with her to find everything on the list. Diego and Fenix spend the day together and eventually visit a comic book shop. While they are there, a curse materializes outside and Fenix defeats it easily by using "Reverse Lethality" on a comic book. Elysia and Renzo struggle to find the last material on Morgana's list: limited edition potato chips sold out in every store. After driving all through the night, they finally find the last bag at a remote convenience store, but just as Renzo grabs one end of it another customer grabs the other end. Renzo becomes visibly upset and starts changing his gear, scaring the customer. Elysia apologizes and the two leave with the bag of chips. Morgana reveals that the chips were not necessary for the repairs and that she just wanted them, to the bemusement of Elysia and Renzo. We see Diego working on his magnum opus: a painting of him and his brother.
|-
| September 20, 2024 ||
====Renzo Leaves the Academy====
At the academy, Troy has a nightmare about a snake, who defeats him and berates his weakness. After the nightmare, he wakes up in a cold sweat. His guilt drives him to travel to Warren's grave and apologize for not moving away with him. Eventually, Renzo shows up and takes him to the [[Blue Rose Speedway]]. Renzo reveals that his true passion is working on cars, and that he only participated in the academy because he felt like he had to. He claims that he never wanted to be a hero and that he feels more fulfilled with his girlfriend and her son outside of the Academy. Troy agrees with Renzo, saying that he's only at the academy as a means to avenge his friends, and says he's making the decision to leave too. However, Renzo tells Troy that he's wrong, and that he has grown to connect with the people at the academy and find purpose there. While Troy thinks on this, Rose shows up, and reveals she has been watching Troy. She encourages him and reveals something big is going on related to the UTC Massacre. Troy is convinced and says he's going back to the Academy.

====Raphael versus the Emissary====
In her eight years in the Spirit World, the Emissary learns that [[Raphael|Gabriel de Leon-Mensah]], one of three remaining Olobukuns, poses a danger to the Earth in that he is a capable vessel of the Seven Deadly Sins. She conceives of a plot to goad Gabriel into tracking down the Artifacts of Sin. She then tracks down the three remaining Olobukuns to their home in Umbwe, Tanzania. She ambushes and kills Lateo de Leon-Mensah and Nia de Leon-Mensah while their son, Gabriel, is at work. When Gabriel returns, he finds the bodies of his parents. His father, Lateo, is barely alive, and with his dying breath entrusts Gabriel to defeat Sin. Gabriel exits his house and finds the Emissary waiting for him. She explains the millennia-long conflict between the Sindicate and the Olobukuns, then tells Gabriel that the Olobukun line will end with him. She uses her teleportation powers to bring Gabriel to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, and tosses him an axe with which to defend himself. Gabriel has unlocked his dormant virtuous energy, and is able to defeat the Emissary. Gabriel tells the Emissary that he will find the Seven Deadly Sins and put an end to Sin once and for all. The Emissary gives a crooked smile before Gabriel leaves her to die. Gabriel changes his name to Raphael and embarks on his journey to defeat Sin.

Later that day, Mr. C confronts a dying Emissary and the two discuss the condition of the world. Then, the Emissary dies.

====Girls Shopping Trip/Shikigami Shenanigans====
Rose reveals that she feels uncomfortable out in the world since the academy is all she's known from an early age. The other girls comfort her, and Nicole decides to take them all on a girls' shopping trip since they are so often secluded in the academy. There are massive sales at UTC because nobody wants to return to a previous massacre ground, so the girls go for both the deals and to investigate.

Diego creates a shikigami rabbit and names it Mylo. Everyone thinks Mylo is great until it starts creating a mess of Buzzutsu Academy. Meanwhile, Bagwis is upset with Diego because Mylo tore through his favorite shirt. Lily comforts Bagwis and the Buzzutsu sorcerers devise a way to capture Mylo. The girls return to the academy, find it a total mess, and decide to go back out for ice cream.

====Omen Breaches The Academy====
The cyberized [[Omen]] curse hacks into Cypher's curse tracking software and creates fake cursed energy signatures to lure the Buzzutsu sorcerers out of the academy. The academy splits off into three pairs to subdue the curses: Troy and Rose, Diego and Bagwis, and Nicole and Sasha. When each pair reaches their designated location, they are ambushed by a powerful curse. Troy and Rose face off against Chicken Man in a forest. Diego and Bagwis face off against [[Confine]] in an abandoned office building. Nicole and Sasha face off against [[Mirage]] on the beach. Meanwhile, Cypher contends with Omen digitally and exorcises him within the program. He tries to warn the sorcerers that they are walking into an ambush, but he is too late. However, each pair is able to combine their strengths in order to defeat the curse threat. [[Connor Castillo]], a curse disguised as a human sorcerer, pretends to have been a captive of Chicken Man and asks Troy if he can join Buzzutsu Academy. Troy feels sorry for Connor and accepts his request.

|-
| October 11-15, 2024 ||
====Mystery of Ammiton====
Troy, Diego, Nicole, and Connor are sent to investigate the disappearances of several people on [[Bununu Island]] off the Florida coast. The villagers claim they can hear singing and see a blue light outside their windows at night. The elder priest, [[Father Reagan]], suggests that God is passing judgment on the people of the village. The sorcerers stay in the home of [[Carlos Olivera]] while they look into the disappearances. They discover that the true cause of the murders is [[Ammiton]], a curse born of zealous judgment. He resembles a monstrous angler fish, but disguises himself as a beautiful angel to lure in his victims. Connor mutters Ammiton's name, but the others are unsure how he knows it. The sorcerers attempt to thwart the curse over several days but are unsuccessful, for it inexplicably disappears at daybreak. In their off time, they spend some time relaxing at the beach.

One night, Troy hears a crash as Carlos is lured out of the house by the blue light. He hurriedly wakes the others and they follow Carlos to the sea, where Ammiton is waiting. Nicole is prepared this time, and pretends to be lured by Ammiton in order to shove a bookunai into his gut. This spooks Ammiton away, and Nicole has a vision of someone looking out from atop the nearby lighthouse. The four run to the lighthouse and confront Father Reagan, who has been controlling Ammiton with a cursed object. The priest reveals himself to be a curse user who has tasked himself with cleansing the island of its wickedness. He uses the cursed object to summon Ammiton and a battle ensues. The sorcerers defeat Father Reagan and recover the cursed object. A withering Ammiton mutters a final word: "deceiver."

Father Reagan is detained by the sorcerers and brought back to the academy. After Father Reagan is questioned by the teachers, Connor confronts him. Father Reagan says that he will reveal Connor's true identity to the academy unless he allows him to escape. In response, Connor kills Father Reagan and stages it as a suicide.
|-
| October 23, 2024 ||

====Confronting Raphael/Raphael and Wrath====
Despite protests from Mr. C, the teachers at Buzzutsu Academy agree that it is time they determine whether Raphael poses a threat. Raphael completes the Trial of Wrath and consumes the Artifact of Wrath before being confronted by Mr. C, Coach Briggs, Mrs. Lancaster, and Mrs. Godwin. They attempt to talk him down, but are forced to fight him, in part due to Wrath's influence over Raphael.

====Jack Attack====
Fenix arrives at the academy, having been called by Mr. C to look after the academy while he's gone. This upsets Magnus, who believes he is strong enough to defeat any threat by himself. Suddenly, the barrier protecting the academy disappears and a swarm of curses attacks the academy. Troy, Diego, and Nicole are told to stay behind and guard the vault while the other sorcerers battle outside. Eventually, anxiety gets the better of Diego and he runs off to join the fight. Nicole begins rigging a bookunai to shoot out at anyone who enters the vault so she too can help. Troy decides to stay and fulfill his duty.

Bagwis, Lilly, and Lenny fight against [[Joey Pepper]], a curse who churns out corrosive Dr. Pepper, while Sasha and Cypher hold off the minor curses. Fenix fights against Chicken Man and kills him. Diego runs to help, but is stopped by Jack, who has been transformed by brainrot. Diego is injured by Jack and is about to be killed by him, but Fenix appears and saves his brother's life.

Nicole runs out, but before she can do anything, [[Drew Scott]] creates portals which transport Bagwis, Lilly, Lenny, Sasha, and Cypher into [[Spirit World#The Eaze|The Eaze]]. Troy hears Rose screaming in the academy and hurries to go save her, seeing that Connor has restrained her. Connor reveals his true form, Deimos, the curse of lies. Troy momentarily activates Midnight Steel due to his heightened emotions, frightening Deimos and causing him to run away. Troy tends to Rose and holds her. Caspian enters the vault and steals the [[COVID-19]] cursed womb.

Jack has a harder time against Fenix and deems him worthy to die by Nisshoku. They enter a Mexican standoff, with Fenix assuming a finger gun stance loaded with his Null Set technique, and Jack with his Nisshoku ready to be drawn. They wait until the flickering hallway light goes out until both engage. The light goes out and in a blink of an eye Jack kills Fenix. As Fenix falls to the ground, Diego sees that half of Jack's body has been atomized by Null Set. Jack meets Diego’s eyes briefly before being retrieved by Caspian.

Meanwhile, Magnus confronts Melanie, who is encased in melanite. Magnus states that he cannot kill a woman and will only immobilize her. She takes advantage of his conceit and is able to match him blow for blow, driving him back. However, when Jack is injured by Fenix, Melanie calls a retreat and the assailants escape atop the [[Drake Worm]] with COVID.

====Raphael versus Buzzutsu Instructors====
Raphael, possessing the sins of Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath, handily defeats all the Buzzutsu instructors save for Mr. C. Mr. C hits him with his domain expansion, but Sloth solves the pop quiz. Mr. C tries one more time to explain to Raphael that his path is dangerous for everybody, but then receives a call that BZA is under attack. He chooses to take a gamble on Raphael and tells the younger sorcerer that he will let him go but keep an eye on him.

The only students in any fighting shape are Troy and Nicole. They agree to pursue the Drake Worm before the curses are able to unleash COVID. Diego wants to avenge his brother, so Morgana fits him with a prosthetic.

Nicole tells the others that her bookunai trap did not work, but secretly she has been having strange visions ever since the attack. Troy, Nicole, and Diego leave with Rev and follow the cursed energy trail in the sky left behind by the Drake Worm.

Meanwhile, on the Drake Worm, Caspian has been experiencing headaches. The bond between him and Nicole is clouded by Warren's brainrot. However, the effects of brainrot are weakening for some reason, possibly due to Jingle. Melanie suspects Drew Scott of double-crossing them, but he denies this. Suddenly, something attacks the Drake Worm, sending it crashing to the ground. The curses are surrounded by [[Silas A. Greaves]] and his crew of curse users.

====The Auction====
There is no fighting allowed in the Auction. Mr. C appears with the remaining Buzzutsu sorcerers and attempts to purchase the COVID curse with [cool item], but Warren has [even cooler item]. Warren acquires the COVID curse and immediately ingests it.

When Caspian returns to Warren's base of operations in New York, he confronts his brother. Warren confirms Caspian's suspicions, and then uses his mind as a conduit to brainrot Nicole via her bookunai. Nicole dismisses the bookunai, but not before the brainrot enters her mind. Jingle appears and feeds on the brainrot, destroying it. Caspian is overwhelmed by the brainrot and killed, but Warren tells those present that it was Nicole's doing.

==Sins Unleashed==

WIP. This main arc chiefly deals with the aftermath of the Seven Deadly Sins being unleashed, as well as dealings with the Spirit World.

===Arc 3: Civil War===
Couple month time skip after Arc 2. After the battle with Warren, Connor attempts to take over the government. The Purge Corps tries to take him down before this happens, but he slaughters them all except for Zeke Delmar. Zeke witnesses Connor tell a lie that allows him to be President of the United States, so he lays low and waits for an opportunity to expose him.

Buzzutsu Academy, now in shambles and attempting to rebuild, is divided. Some support Connor and his seemingly legitimate takeover of the government. He promises peace, stability, and coexistence between cursed spirits and humans. His policies are also rather effective. However, some say that coexistence is impossible, and oppose such efforts of integration. Others distrust Connor and his tendency to double cross, lie, and change reality (even if they do not yet realize his presidency is a lie).

At some point, mercenary [[Nova|Supernova]] is hired to take out Connor. Troy is at first against Connor, whom he blames for the corruption of Warren. He eventually gets over his blind hatred and sees the good in what Connor is doing. Diego, after processing the death of his brother and witnessing destruction of the Academy, just wants stability and peace, so he sides with Connor. Nicole is distrusting of Connor, and through her merging with Jingle becomes aware that his presidency is a result of one of his lies, so she opposes him.

Eventually, after a drawn out conflict with lives lost as accidental, collateral damage, people come to accept that what Connor is doing is good for the world. In return, Connor learns how to be human and begins to care for the lives he is affecting. He then steps down and appoints [[The Old Kanye]], his vice president, as his replacement so that he can be less powerful but still involved in his ideals.

===Arc 4: World War Sin===

Devious Lick (event)

'''Division:''' Son of Envy

'''Arc:''' Buzzutsu Academy

'''Date:''' August 26th, 2024

'''Location:''' Pinebrook Elementary

== Overview ==
[[Troy Demasters|Troy’s]] first field encounter occurs when his transport is diverted to Pinebrook Elementary for a suspected Grade 1 cursed spirit. The team engages a fast, object-consuming curse later dubbed “[[Devious Lick]],” which manifests from the devious lick trend and contains a pocket-dimension stomach. After discovering the curse has swallowed four children, Troy repeatedly puts himself in danger—ultimately entering the curse’s stomach to rescue them, awakening his technique to survive the digestive sludge.

== Detailed Plot Summary ==
On the morning Troy is scheduled to arrive at [[Buzzutsu Academy]], he is picked up by [[Kimberly Hall|Kim]] alongside the two first-year students he met previously, [[Diego de la Vega|Diego]] and [[Nicole Brooks|Nicole]]. Mid-transport, they receive a dispatch to Pinebrook Elementary for a Grade 1 cursed spirit. Against Kim’s initial insistence on protocol, Troy and the others advocates intervening, and the group responds to the call.

At the school, staff are evacuating children in panic. Nicole asserts authority using a badge and directs evacuation while the team moves inside. Once civilians are cleared, Nicole casts a veil around the school to prevent interference and contain the situation. Diego creates an ink tracking construct from a sketch; the curse devours it, revealing itself as a fast, slime-bodied frog-like spirit that has been ingesting stolen objects.

Nicole and Troy attempt to pin it down while Diego secures the perimeter from outside using ink constructs. Troy tackles the curse into a classroom, where it expels a stream of swallowed objects and demonstrates a volatile, flammable digestive sludge. Nicole establishes a psychic link by lodging a [[bookunai]] in its head and deduces the curse is a literal manifestation of the “devious lick” trend—driven to consume objects within the school. The curse suddenly expands and detonates, forcing the team out of the building; Nicole confirms the landmark used for navigation is a torreya tree.

Suspecting the curse may have swallowed a child, Troy reenters the building alone and confronts Devious Lick in the cafeteria as it vacuums up kitchen equipment. He lands a heavy strike but becomes trapped in burning sludge when the curse superheats and erupts molten digestive fluid, severely injuring him. Troy discovers a cold sensation within his heart that can counter the heat and partially regulate his armor, allowing him to keep fighting.

Nicole confirms via her psychic link that Devious Lick has swallowed not one child but four, and that its stomach functions like a pocket dimension. Diego notices the curse cools as it expends sludge; the team decides to force it to overexert itself. Diego releases a swarm of ink insects to harass the curse and provoke repeated fireball discharges until it becomes weak and cold enough.

Seeing an opening, Troy dives into Devious Lick’s mouth. Inside, he finds himself in a vast sludge “sea” filled with swallowed objects. As the sludge warms again, Troy uses the cold in his heart to push through it and realizes the children must be floating near the surface. He locates four terrified kids clinging to a whiteboard and attempts to carry them back to the mouth. As the sludge turns molten, Troy forces himself to endure intense burning, while his armor cracks and raw flesh burns beneath.

A surge in the internal sludge current propels them toward the exit. Troy redirects the cold to stabilize his failing body and loses consciousness as they are expelled. Outside, Troy awakens badly burned and stripped of his clothing. The four children are alive. Devious Lick is left shriveled and is being consumed by a cat-headed, worm-bodied [[Jingle|creature]]. Troy drifts out again as a [[Elysia Fielding|familiar woman]] tends to him.

'''Location:''' [[UTC Mall]]

== Overview ==
The UTC Massacre marks [[Warren Majors|Warren]]’s first large-scale public deployment of Brain Rot, resulting in mass casualties.

== Detailed Plot Summary ==
On August 10, 2024, Warren activates [[Envy|Envy’s]] technique “Brain Rot” within the University Town Center Mall. The attack causes catastrophic structural damage to the building, collapsing sections of the floor and creating a massive crater in the central atrium. Hundreds of civilians are killed or fatally injured in the initial blast.

[[Troy Demasters]], who was in a second-floor bathroom when the technique was unleashed, emerges into the destroyed mall and attempts to assist survivors. Drawing upon the abundant cursed energy in the air, he reinforces his body with his bronze armor technique and searches for his friends.

Upon reaching the atrium, Troy discovers widespread devastation and numerous casualties. He eventually locates [[Jackson Washington|Jack]] buried within rubble at the center of a large crater. Though critically injured, Jack is still alive.

As Troy attempts to reach him, he is struck by an intense psychic assault originating from a shadowy humanoid figure composed entirely of darkness. The presence appears to be a powerful curse manifested in the aftermath of Brain Rot. Overcome by searing pain and overwhelming rage, Troy attempts to counterattack but collapses before making contact. He loses consciousness.

In the aftermath of the massacre, local authorities secure the scene while concealing the supernatural cause of the event. [[Pavel Constantinescu]] and [[Elysia Fielding]] arrive to assess the damage and tend to survivors. Elysia confirms that Troy is alive, prompting Pavel to remark on his exceptional potential.

Funeral

'''Location:''' Unknown

== Overview ==
The joint funeral for [[Jackson Washington|Jack Washington]] and the Majors triplets serves as the emotional aftermath of the [[UTC Massacre]]. During the service, [[Troy Demasters|Troy]] publicly blames himself for Jack’s death. The event culminates in [[Pavel Constantinescu|Mr. C]] formally recruiting Troy into [[Buzzutsu Academy]], marking his commitment to becoming a buzzutsu sorcerer.

== Detailed Plot Summary ==
A joint funeral is held for Jack Washington and the Majors triplets. Jack’s father, Scott Washington, delivers opening remarks and explains the family’s decision to honor the Majors alongside their son due to their lack of living relatives.

Troy is invited to speak. He reflects on his lifelong friendship with Jack and recounts how Jack and [[Warren Majors|Warren]] supported him through difficult times. While describing a camping trip and the promises they made to remain together for life, Troy becomes overwhelmed with guilt. He publicly declares that he could have saved Jack and blames himself for surviving when his friends did not. Jack's mother consoles him, and he returns to his seat in visible distress.

During the service, Troy notices a tall unfamiliar man seated in the back of the chapel.

After the burial, Troy is approached by two individuals, [[Diego de la Vega|Diego]] and [[Nicole Brooks|Nicole]], who claim to have known Warren. They reveal they are associated with “Mr. C,” who is present at the funeral.

Troy approaches Mr. C and witnesses him arguing with Jack’s father. Mr. Washington privately urges Troy not to involve himself in Warren’s world and insists that the massacre was not Troy’s fault. Troy verbally agrees, though internally he remains conflicted.

Mr. C confirms that he raised and trained Warren at Buzzutsu Academy. Through conversation, Troy deduces the existence of a hidden school dedicated to combating curses. Mr. C formally offers Troy a place at the academy, citing both his potential and the increasing threat of curses.

Motivated by guilt and a desire to honor his friends, Troy accepts the offer. Mr. C informs him that a car will arrive the following morning to take him to the academy.

The event concludes with Troy feeling, for the first time since the massacre, that he has a direction forward.
