The Pitch
What starts as a chance encounter to assist a small village will quickly reveal itself to be the beginnings of an epic quest, for the roots of the world are old and some things were better left dreaming. An ancient evil awakens and it is up to you to rebuild the artifact that can be used to slay it once and for all! Into jungles and mountains and deserts and marshes will you have to traverse in order to accomplish this impossible task. To fail is to doom the world.
The campaign in question has a linear narrative, but is rather open-ended in how you approach and accomplish your goals. This does require a sense of adventure and a willingness to face danger. It'll be fun, I guarantee it.
Trigger Warnings and Themes
This game will include triggers related to violence, kidnapping, sacrifice, character death, and slavery; many of these are to be condemned. The world in which you find yourself is old and dying, and many forgotten secrets wait just around the next mountain pass or deep in the jungle. Undeath and evil cults are a major premise, and so much of the baggage associated with those apply.
This game WILL NOT include the following triggers: sexual assault, violence against children (though it may against some young adults), suicide. This is an incomplete list, and will include other triggers as decided by the group.
To survive, you must work together! For this reason, your character must have a willingness to work together even with those who might be diametrically opposed.
Game Duration and Pacing
This game expects players to post once a day, five times a week. I do not expect the game to move on weekends, as I am usually busy myself. As for the duration, this is expected to be a long game, running the course of years should you stay with it.
This game will use a private Discord server to encourage speed and ease of play. Hyperborea 3e has some rules that are benefited by a quicker communication, such as combat options; the server will help with this.
Who May Apply
This game is open to any who are interested in this chaotic experience. The table is intentionally inclusive, and will not tolerate any racism, sexism, or any other -ism. Safety is paramount. I reserve the right to prevent any from joining should I feel they are not a good fit, and to remove any players who show the same.
How to Apply
Simply reply here, or reach out on the GamersPlane Discord. If you are interested, please use a quote or reference from your favorite epic tale (or epic metal song) in bold. If you have questions, I am more than happy to answer before you make a decision. I will utilize an arbitrary method of choosing who joins, which may be the product of the Lords of Chaos. I will select five players, or six if the mood strikes me.
