Absent Aplomb

Absent Aplomb is a comic-style story created by Lue Delou, currently still in the deciding stage. It is planned to have many aspects inspired by shows such as Madoka Magica, including Magical Girls(and boys), 'evil' Energy-collecting creatures, monsters spawning from dead magical kids, and magical children having unique costumes rather than a team-oriented design. It is intended to be read for entertainment purposes only once it's officially started, and tries to find a decent balance between a dark story and the general happy image of the magical girl genre. It is not to be drawn in the anime/manga style, but will use the storytelling style of manga rather than that found in more western cartoons.

Main Story
Though it follows the basic Monster of the Week formula, the main story of Absent Aplomb will revolve around the idea of Magical Kids and Creatures becoming so prevalent that it is no longer possible to truly hide them from the non-magical public, as well as following several Character arcs that may or may not add to the main themes. It will not be uncommon for the story to switch from fun and happy to horribly dark and perhaps even a bit disturbing.

Setting
The story of Absent Aplomb takes place in the year 4012, on a made-up country known as Warevirthifuk(as the person who discovered it had a rude sense of humor). It is to be mentioned multiple times that Warevirthifuk is one of the few countries left standing after a mass world takeover in World War 4, and is a mostly atheistic nation as world war 3 apparently had mass destruction of known religious documents and people, both physical and digital copies. the three main religions we know of today have survived, but just barely, and many of the beloved practices have been lost. The main characters go to a school in the city of Fae, around the southwestern area of the country. The school has yet to be named.
