Alright, let me get this out of the way and with all due respect. Do not shoehorn smut into my roleplay. I don't have a problem with it, but it doesn't belong here. You've got hundreds of options, I've personally checked, use them.
Now then, what is this thing I'm hocking? Well I don't have a roleplay-ready story set yet, but I've got the world I'm gonna set it in. It's an offshoot of a series I'm working on called A History of The Dark War, I call it Dark War for short. This roleplay is considered non-canon, to help me out later in life.
I consider this to be an epic, it's kind of my thing right now writing those, and it's a lot of generic and somewhat generic ideas, rolled in with really intriguing original ideas of all sizes, to make something really cool. Much like Bungie did when they first made Halo.
The general story is that two thousand years ago Earth was a futuristic place, good but not exactly a utopia, I actually have a series set during that time but we won't go there. In this futuristic world scientists probe the multiverse, and a formless force of nature responds by invading and corrupting our universe. Eventually most of Humanity is forced to flee from Earth and her colonies, and the small portion remaining are hunted to near extinction.
Several hundred years later, this guy calling himself Alistair Salem just sort of.. Appears with this group of Humans living as nomads. He teaches them to become something more than Human and eventually they become the first of The Nephilim and begin beating back The Darkness, as the formless entity and its puppets are called now. Humanity begins again with primitive means, as the Nephilim establish monasteries the people build settlements and over the next twelve hundred years industry is established and Humanity gains a foothold on what was once their planet.
Enter the Twelve Hundredth Year of The Nephilim, Dark Creatures are an abundance of problems but within the walls and guarded by hundreds of armed, trained soldiers the people generally feel safe. There is no more urgency to bare the sacrifice of joining the Nephilim and their numbers are dwindling. This is unfortunate, as the Oracles of the Nephilim monasteries are plagued by haunting visions and a slow-dawning madness that takes their voices and eventually their minds. The remaining Nephilim are becoming restless, the emotions they're forced to control become overbearing and while many afflicted still continue their endless quest of killing The Darkness, many are overcome and become corrupt. These Corrupted Nephilim aimlessly wander the landscape, indiscriminately helping or hindering anyone and anything they come across.
All those in tune with The Darkness and its formless energies feel it, something is boiling in the belly of the beast and mankind is not prepared for whatever it is.
There's a lot more to say, specifically details about the world, but I'll say it if people are interested and we can start talking roleplay story and shit like that, too. Consider this also a discussion page, for now. Also questions, I can answer them if you can ask them.
