New Story Series & Concept: Execution Maiden (处刑姬) 🌸⚔️

I’ve recently been playing around with this idea that’s been simmering in the back of my mind for quite a while. After bouncing off some detailed (and honestly, delightfully dark) discussions with a few friends, I figured it’s would be a nice idea to turn these discussions into illustrated stories and share with you all. Some of the story drafts have already been done in Chinese, and I’m planning to polish them with English translations and trying to makestory illustrations.

At the heart of this concept is "Execution Maiden" or "The Executrix" ("处刑姬"), named Su Wanli (苏晚梨) — a deceptively sweet-looking young woman with a soft voice and a kitten-like demeanor, who holds the role of the state-appointed execution officer. Her job? To carry out final executions on a very specific group of condemned men — those who were once elite fighters, bodyguards, underground champions, or even high-ranking military officers, each with muscle-bound bodies, outstanding hand-to-hand combat skills, and a deep streak of arrogance or lawlessness. These men received the death penalty, but are given a chance to "redeem" themselves in a final combat trial: a one-on-one match against Su Wanli herself. But little do they know the truth — it’s just a formal prelude to humiliation and inevitable demise.

Among the death row, there is even the very man who once trained Su Wanli — now destined to meet his execution at her hands. The twist? She learned their methods, mastered their strengths, and is now the ultimate inversion of the roles they expected — soft on the outside, ruthlessly calculating within. Her signature techniques focus on close combat, with her devastatingly precise knee strikes, body locks, and... well, let’s just say, techniques that leave no room for survival — nor for their male's pride. Her list of "subjects" includes a variety of rugged, testosterone-fueled men: from special forces instructors and cocky underground fighters to iron-willed mercenaries and silver-fox bodyguards. Each one of them, despite their bulk and training, ends up humiliated, broken, and meticulously cataloged as part of Su Wanli’s sexy, methodical rituals.

I’ll admit, things have been quite busy lately, but I’m hoping to carve out some time here and there to bring this project to life.
