In their absence darkness, once held at bay and sleeping now looms and strangles the land. Ancient secretes held by the gods begin to unchain themselves. Across the lands many suffer disease, hunger, corruption, and the monstrosities that now roam once guarded lands. Vampire princes rule the west, pompous knights and elves the southern lands, Northern tribes fight, raid, and spill both foreign and the blood of their own. While the once great power of the Burach Empire Chokes and fall to its own corruption. But even in a world this cruel, there is still hope. Your stories will define your world weather for good or ill. Faillier and death are expected, while hope flickers to your decisions. Will you defy fate's flame, or snuff it out to fight darkness with you own? ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ About the DM: I'm a DM focused on creating immersive, character-driven stories where your character's history, relationships, and decisions genuinely matter. I lean toward cinematic storytelling, meaningful roleplay, challenging combat, and building a living world that reacts to what the players do rather than forcing everyone down a single path. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ Character Creation: We'll create characters together during onboarding, so you don't need a finished character beforehand. We'll be using the 2024 D&D 5e rules, starting at Level 1, with your backstory woven directly into the world and campaign. Discord will be used for voice and communication, with maps and other tools handled digitally during sessions..
