Event; NEXUS!

Howdy Guys and Gals! We here, as the mod staff at the New Worlds and Dark Realms RPG, are very excited to announce our next EVENT, scheduled to begin Saturday January 8th, 2011! The fandom of this latest and greatest event is Star Trek! And the actual happening will be known as "The Nexus" Event. The following information is for players who may not be familiar with the Nexus;

"The Nexus is an extradimensional realm in which one's thoughts and desires shape reality. Inside the Nexus, time has no meaning, allowing one to visit any time and any place that one can imagine. The entrance to the Nexus was a violent temporal energy ribbon which crossed through the galaxy every 39.1 years."



See more information on the Nexus and Star Trek References HERE.

The best camparison for those who do not know what the Nexus is would be the Mirror of Erised in Harry Potter or Marvel's House of M. It is a plain of existence in which your characters deepest desires come to truition. The point of the Nexus is to trap or ensare beings so they would not want to return to reality. For the purpose of our game, the main antagonist Shinnok has drawn the Nexus to Earth in order to prevent those who might rise against him from doing so. Shinnok wants to trap as many people as he can in the Nexus and because it is so personal and inticing, it should be incredibly difficult to leave.

The Nexus will occur January 8th as illustrated in the visual aid above. A wave of light or energy shall pass over the Earth and take people into their own Nexus. Players are encouraged to write and plot together and think about what the ideal reality for their characters would look like and whom it would entail. Participation in this event is not manditory and it will not effect your membership if you do not take part in it- But keep in mind events that take place during the Nexus may effect game plot.
