When Worlds Fall
Looking for new players for a new game!
No one saw the end coming.
Social media had plagued the masses into complacency. Who needed to learn when an online search could lead you to a tutorial and a video on getting it done?
Humanity became dependent on machines to heal, to transport and to tell them how to think and at. It was surprising that no one had seen it coming, but then again, humanity had been warned it was the end of the world one too many times.
This time it was true.
No one knew what caused the first solar flare, but it had caused wide-spread panic. Countries mobilized, fearing attack. Citizens hid in their homes and churches. The second flare wiped out the electricity, and the world went dark. The third blazing rainbow of light in the skies was the most damaging, as it cut through the ozone layer, leaving all life below exposed to harmful radiation.
That's when everyone started dying.

It was the golden age for supernatural creatures. No one thought they were real. When the unexplained did occur, it was easier to cover it up in a world that did not know the name of their neighbor two doors down the street, let alone care. The freedom to do what you wanted, when you wanted, led to open debauchery and the things that went bump in the night were reclassified as fetish.
When the end came, it was they that were harmed the most by humanities loss.
Vampires and Fae had no more prey. Shifters had no humans to take as mates. Mages could no longer form their triumvirates. They were the unexpected saviors of humanity, uniting for a singular cause; To open the veil between Earth and Umbra - the World beyond.
In Umbra they found salvation. The Fae had been walking the divide for eons, the first to traverse the paths between. When they had come, others had followed. Shifters found new hope and salvation. Vampires a renewed purpose to existence. The magic of this world was a potent battery, feeding back into their own. With Earth burning, the Mages called the Fae to open the paths, and the exodus began.
First it was those that knew the world beyond. But as humanity began to die, unable to survive the sun, they started to be stolen away in the night. Families, towns and cities were swallowed by those trying to save them.
Now they must move on and survive. But can humanity adapt?
This is a free-form style RP game. It is bright and shiny and new, looking for all types of players to help get it started and the world going.
