Epitaph

Who are we?

We are an original character supernatural game based in the very near future, in a world where the lines between 'normal' and everything else are fracturing all over the place. A world that seems to be pretty much falling apart and where everyone is having to adapt to stay alive.

The game focuses on certain areas around the world. These areas have been cut off from the world at large, but are connected to each other by a series of mystical doorways. Each area has it's own issues and problems to deal with - whether that be rampaging vampires, supernatural gang warfare, food shortages, or just learning to get on with life.

We have a friendly and welcoming game environment and player base and dynamic plots that range from the small, involving just a couple of players, to overarching game plots. A supportive mod team ensures that everyone gets as much as they can from the game itself.

We're also looking for new characters! Could you play one of them?

Who are you?

You are Noah St James. You're an eighteen year old musician from Marquette, Michigan. Last summer, your dreams came true and you and your high school band were signed to a small record label and moved to New York to work on an album. Well, you and two out of the three other band members moved - your best friend and lead guitarist, Thom Harkin stayed behind and left the band. Only you know why - Thom has a secret he cannot tell. He is a protector, sworn to protect your little sister, Kaysen, with his life. You know his secret, you know why he had to stay behind as you left the small town for the bright lights of Manhattan. Only then Manhattan got cut off and the world around you changed.

You are Devon and maybe you've been a hunter all your life. Or maybe not - your past is pretty much your own. One thing's for certain though, you can handle yourself. You're capable, and assured and maybe have a few tricks up your sleeve. Life lately hasn't been good to you though, because currently, you're missing. At least, you are according to your best friend Deacon, and according to the teenager you took under your wing a few months back, Rori. They're both looking for you and all they know is that you're alive. They'd really like to find you sometime soon.

You are Heidi Ramone. You're an air elemental, but life for you was fairly normal until you took that job after college working at the Stanley Hotel. And then suddenly there were ghosts, and the place got cut off and well, there's not a whole lot to do out there in the middle of nowhere. Of course, then that door in the ballroom appeared, and you found out you could visit other places - places all round the world. And damn, but you're a curious one...

You are Jen O'Reilly. Born and raised in Manchester, England, if you have any kind of a supernatural ability, you've never revealed it in public. You lead what seemed to be a perfectly normal life. You had your friends (even if one of them, Dean Conway moved away to Marquette, Michigan last summer. Things changed for you at New Year, when you and your boyfriend, Stuart (Stu) headed out into the city centre to celebrate and you've been trapped there ever since, in a town full of vampires. You've been fighting to stay alive. hell, as far as anyone knows, you didn't make it. So many people have been turned into vampires, after all. What does the future hold for you? And what does the future hold for your boyfriend?

You are Switchboard. The voice of Manhattan, the nerve center of it all. You are holding it all together, playing music, playing emergency call operator, you're the sense of humor that keeps people going, the woman with the power to touch lives. Touch everyone's lives, since everything happened. There's a bright side, damnit, and you find it. And when you do, you're going to share it. Light up the dark, fill those sound waves with your voice and music. Rock on, Manhattan. You'll be there to guide.

You are Maxine Bennet. Or maybe you are her husband, Brendan Bennet. Either way, you're trying to support your daughter, Roxie, who you adopted when she was 11 years old. It was only then that you discovered that she was a dreamwalker. Times have been interesting since then, and you've tried to support her. You've also tried to bring her up in the ways of your church - the Church of Harmony. you believe that all creatures, no matter what race, devotion, subset, or supernatural species or ability, deserve tolerance and peace. Unfortunately they don't all believe that in return.

Hello!

Welcome to Algul Siento. It's much nicer than our previous location -- many of the people here will tell you that very thing. Granted, some of the newer residents have only ever known this place, but we like to hang onto some of our
guests longer than others.

If you haven't pieced it together yet, you've been kidnapped. Not for ransom or anything that someone else can exchange for your freedom, but for observation. We're curious to see how long it takes an ever-shifting group of strangers to find their way to freedom, or if they can at all. In the meantime, we'll be observing you as we perform a series of different experiments. You may be exposed to chemicals, smells, odd dreams, or other out of place things around the island. You may be placed under attack and made to defend yourself.

If we found any firearms in your home or room when we abducted you, they've been cleaned of ammunition and left in your nightstand drawer. Other items of interest we found were brought along and are in your room as well. If you are a person of talent or magic, you'll find that not all of your talents will work properly. Don't worry, this is completely normal for this situation.

We strongly advise against taking out your frustrations on the other residents. We also insist you exercise caution when venturing off the marked paths. There are dangers here we didn't see fit to remove for the duration of your stay.

If you have any questions, you may address us through the network, or speak to any of the other residents here.

Enjoy your stay!

Sincerely,
The Heads

In Darkness is a moderately fast paced, thread-heavy, non-crack, plot-centric panfandom game. All fandoms are welcome, and player input is invaluable. We're here to make a fun game for you guys, so we encourage people to suggest plots and collaborate on plot discussions.

We are writing-oriented and big fans of organic development between characters. We do have a minimum requirement of three threads per month. We offer group-wide plots every week and we have plots lined up through April with tons more waiting in the sidelines!

Open since June 13
