Wolves asleep amidst the trees
Bats all a swaying in the breeze
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Fearing no manner of ghouls, hags, and wraiths
Paid in coin of gold
He comes he'll go leave naught behind
But heartache and woe
Deep, deep woe
Birds are silent for the night
Cows turned in as daylight dies
But one soul lies anxious wide awake
Fearing no manner of ghouls, hags, and wraiths
He'll chop and slice you
Cut and dice you
Eat you up whole
Eat you whole

*Lyrics by Marcin Przybyłowicz


An episodic Elder Scrolls horror roleplay, inspired by both The Elder Scrolls and the ambience of acclaimed Witcher series. This roleplay is a love letter to classic horror stories and tales from mythology, a collection of fables bound in the high-fantasy setting we have come to know and love. There will be tragedy in spades, and melancholy that spills over the rim. This story is as dark as they come, but yet there is always hope…

Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul. It sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all. - Emily Dickinson


Miniature plots in each 'episode' under one major plot. Visiting the spookiest places in Tamriel, a journey to the underbelly of their society. This game is for you if you enjoy collaborating with other writers, if you enjoy building a storyline for yourself, and if you are keen to write your own NPC. If you want the agency to craft a deliciously terrifying story for yourself, then please apply....




4E213
17th Suns Dawn


You have boarded Kismet - a grand and beautiful ship belonging to Captain Ravana, a charismatic and famed Redguard. He is known to many as a deeply eccentric, yet altruistic individual. You are travelling from Daggerfall to Anvil for reasons only you know… Perhaps you are heading home after an adventure - maybe this is your first adventure. For whatever reason, you are on the Kismet, and Cyrodiil is your destination.

Our story begins on the night of a feast aboard the beautiful ship, and you will be thrown together with more strangers following a terrifying incident, and even more eerie aftermath...

Noteworthy - World State

  • The year is 4E213, the Stormcloaks were defeated and Skyrim sits under the Empire. The Dragonborn has not been seen since the Battle at Windhelm. Empire and Dominion have a tense peace. Presumed dead. No dragons remain in Skyrim.
  • Individual guild/school states to be confirmed;
  • State of provinces to be confirmed;




  • No Godmodding or Powerplaying. This is a story, not a competition to be Billy or Betty Badass. Keep your characters balanced. I don't want to enforce strict rules that stifle your creativity in creating a character, I will always be reasonable and work with you to create a compelling character with the skills that you want but you have to be prepared to tone things down if necessary.
  • This is advanced level, so I'm looking for people who can commit not only to advanced standards, but to the roleplay long term. Posting expectations are a post every 2 weeks. If we can have a faster pace then great, but I want all selected players to be on board together.
  • Be considerate, communicate. If you can't post for whatever reason, just let me know. If you're working on collabs with other players, let them know too.
  • Be kind. I really, really, really don't want dick behaviour in the OOC, it doesn't foster the kind of atmosphere I like to create. So be nice to each other, respectful, and helpful. If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. I will remove people who start ruining the groove.
  • Keep it PG-13. You know the rules of the guild. No naughty posts in the IC. If you really have to, take it to PM.

    Noteworthy:
  • Due to the setting of this game, please be aware that your characters will be exposed to perilous situations from time-to-time. They can get hurt, they can get very hurt. Please be mindful when engaging in combat of your skills and setbacks, and who is around to help you should you get very hurt.
  • Please no prior relationships with canonical characters from any of The Elder Scrolls games. If you wish to write up prior relationships with other player characters within the game, then by all means please do so as it can be fun. But it's also just as fun to be ~total strangers~...
  • Be sensible in your capabilites. That means try not to weigh down your character with a full inventory. We’ve all been there in game, with that one extra cabbage tipping us over the edge! I like to play TES roleplays realistically - and anything that your character has, must be explained in some way. For example, if they are carrying a lot of money on them - why is this? Are they from a rich family? They have a pretty swish weapon but pretty basic armour? Was it an heirloom? These are things I will question on sheets.
  • Vampires/Were/Undead characters will not be accepted at initial application stage. Despite the setting, the start of the roleplay will not allow for those characters - there is always opportunity for those storylines to occur, and further down the line in the roleplay there may be openings for characters of a grizzlier nature. But for the beginning, a character like that is simply too different from the initial cast. With that in mind, I am always open to your ideas so please talk to me in advance.






Noteworthy:

  • Applications welcome. Please complete the sheet to the best of your ability. No places will be given as first-come-first-served. I will review all sheets after a length of time has passed, and I have been able to answer questions. Loose deadline currently at; 28th August
  • Prologue events planned for first ‘Episode’. I have a loose plan for the following episodes under the main plot, but they are not set in stone until the cast of characters has been chosen...

The horror sidequests are the best ones in Skyrim, don't @ me. Good concept. Don't know if I have the time, but I wanted to support the idea regardless.

Infamously bad at posting consistently but concept looks good and definitely something I'd keep an eye on if I don't have the time to consistently post myself.

Not at all, it's a very versatile gif. It works just as well when giving useful information to people or weighing in on debates. I think it's most effective when breaking down exactly why someone else is painfully wrong about something, because that smarmy look on his face is just perfect as a "you're welcome, dipshit" end note.
