Ravaged Realm

"Ravaged Realm" (working title) was once a land similar to ours set in a late renaissance and Victorian era level of technology. It wasn't until a great cataclysm had destroyed most of civilization and left the world scattered and on its knees. Now, after almost a hundred years after, the world remains in a chaotic mess of demons, curses, and betrayal. Many have seen fit to keep to themselves or their respective groups. We begin with a large ship crashing powerfully against a shore, seemingly not likely anyone would survive. Would you be among the few who did or would you be a bystander who witnessed or heard the horrible crash; ultimately, who would you be among this broken land?

​This campaign will be dark fantasy themed with some horror elements; with that, I will be adding an 18+ tag for viewer discretion. It is inspired by games such as Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Diablo, Grim Dawn, and other such themes. This will be heavily roleplay based, more focused on character and story advancement than mechanical gameplay. If you're new, don't worry, I expect practically everyone to be new to this system. I am a new DM, the rules are experimental, and the lore is still in progress as I go. I will try my best to keep things going right, but there's always the chance for failure.

Information:
- Mature; Keep in mind that I've set the mature tag since vulgar language, dark concepts (such as death, torture, gore), and so on will exist within the world. However, sexual content will not be explicitly roleplayed!
- Communication is important; Players will be expected to show some level of interest and communication. Any players who shows little, especially none, will be dropped out at my discretion.
- Text-only; It will be in English.
- Heavy-roleplay; The rules are left intentionally vague, and allows players to chose exactly what they would like, within the confines of the setting.
- Fairly freeform; The players are allowed to add their own piece of lore, interpretations, and story as long as it doesn't infringe on another player in the game.
- Player #: I prefer small groups; It will be a maximum of 5 players.
- System: It will be using a heavily modified version of a system named Tavern Tales; It is very easy to get into, don't worry.
- Schedule: ​I am EST based, and usually play between noon to night, and fairly flexible. A schedule will be discussed with all the players, but we will be playing at least weekly. If you cannot make at least weekly, or your schedule is very busy constantly, this may not be the campaign for you.**
