Devil in the Backbeat (IS🎭)

🎸 You thought you were joining a weird little band in New Jersey. Instead, you joined the Barren Saints—and apparently nobody thought to mention your singer is the Jersey Devil. 😈🎤 Jaime “Jay” Leeds — A cocky, flirtatious Black non-binary musician hiding something monstrous beneath their human disguise. Charming, territorial, mischievous, and considerably less confident when feelings get real. 🥁🔮👻 Mal, Nox & Rio — Your new bandmates: a sarcastic human who knows too much, a deadpan witch who notices everything, and a guarded ghost hiding secrets of her own. ❤️ Between rehearsals, dive-bar gigs, songwriting, late-night drives, strange storms, and trips into the Pine Barrens, friendship may become chosen family—and band chemistry might become something more. ✨ Slow Burn • Queer Romance • Optional Polyamory • Cryptids • Folk Horror • Band Life • Found Family • Cozy Spooky CN/TW: Monster transformations, supernatural horror, death/ghost themes, mild body horror, frightening imagery, relationship conflict, jealousy, and discussions of identity/queerness. Can be played monogamous romance or polyam romance depending on choices and you!
