Arcane: the Monster of Zaun

In the sprawling undercity of Zaun, where survival is a daily struggle and family is forged in the fires of hardship, a group of young misfits navigates life’s trials while growing closer together. Among them is Derek, an orphan who, after a mysterious encounter with Zaun’s chemical wastelands, begins to undergo strange and terrifying changes. With each passing full moon, Derek’s body becomes stronger, faster, and more dangerous—changes he struggles to control.

But even as they carve out their place in Zaun, the specter of Derek’s transformation lingers. With each full moon, the battle for control becomes more intense, testing his will and the group’s resolve. Together, they face not only the dangers of the undercity but also the monster Derek fears he’s becoming.

This is a story of resilience, growth, and found family set in the world of Arcane, where the bonds between friends may be the only thing strong enough to withstand the challenges ahead.
