Welcome to The Dark Ages



The year is 1350, and Europe is currently experiencing the infamous dark ages. The Black Death is ravaging the land, decimating people across the continent. War is raging both in and between nations. People everywhere are losing faith and hope, wondering where the love of God has gone. And, as if that wasn’t enough, the forces of darkness are more real than ever.

This game is set in an alternate reality, where much (if not all) of the superstitions people had back then are true. Europe is riddled with vampires, witches, werewolves and all the other servants of Satan. It’s a time and place where the night belongs to other beings than man, where the uncharted wilderness has masters of its own.

You will take on the roles of villains, heroes and the people in between. It’s an open-world kind of game where you make your own fate, make your own adventure. There will be no red line, no glorious quest for the salvation of mankind – just the stories of the people living in these wretched times.

So take your place in the annals of history. Go forth and live out your goals, good or evil. Just remember that the night is dark… and full of terrors.

Very interested! Would like to know how you would handle magic in this RP. Will it be a low magic setting with magic only through like magic weapons and artifacts (closer to the realistic side of things) or will players be able to make spellcasting characters (closer to straight up fantasy)?

I'm not interested in a magic based character myself, but I'm still curious. Looks very promising, I hope this gets more popular!

This may be a silly question - do you have a plot thought out?

A combination of both, I think. More powerful magic is bound in items, but "simple" spellcasting is also possible.

Not really, no. This'll be a sandbox kind of game. My character will have a quest of sorts, but you don't have to follow it.

One little problem: 1350 was during the high middle ages. The dark ages were at least 476 AD to about 800 AD, although the Roman Dark ages were from about the 200s AD onward. Not criticizing the RP, just pointing it out. Seriously, though, the 1300s were on the cusp of the Renaissance.

Due to some creative differences in an RP I have a character that can fit this with a little tweaking.

While this is true, 1350 was pretty fucking dark with the Black Death nearing its peak and all. It sounded better :)
