Temhota: Darker Than Darkness - A Role Playing Game
« on: May 07, 2012, 07:22:02 pm »

Those beings that go bump in the night, those abominations that people see in nightmares, the creatures people wish where real, and those things of legend, all these things that shouldn't exist in the mortal realm as we know it don't, or at least not entirely on their own. In this modern world filled with war, modernization, machines, and technology there are some people that walk among us looking normal, but their fates are different from the rest of Mankind who lead normal lives. These people are unique in a sense, they are anchors for things that should not exist in our world, and they are those who are hunted. Those beings that shouldn't be in our world, but do are trapped in our realm with no way home, they are the sources of legends, and nightmares, and they are the hunters of those unique people.

Those unique people are called Darkers, and they bind creatures of other realms to this world, these creatures were sent here for various purposes, but they are bond to these people to survive where they shouldn't, these creatures are drawn to the Darkers, because of the corruption in their very souls, their desire for revenge, power, and many more things has bound the beings to the Darkers souls. Without the Darkers the beings cannot exist, and thus the Darkers refer to them as the Chained.

In the city of New York City, New York there are many of these Darkers, most wander about not knowing what foul changes have fell on their life until the roaming beasts of other realms hunt them down, and kill them. And those that are aware of their nature hide, or face their destinies head on for they know they will be hunted. In this city a war is about to begin between the Darkers, themselves, and those roaming monstrosities as the Darkers are forced into a challenge that will cost their very lives if they fail ...

-----------------------------------------------------

Okay that was the intro, and now down to the nitty gritty. This is going to be a RP Heavy RPG game based in the setting described above, players will create characters as either Darkers, or the Chained, and they may then either choose who their partner will be or I will assign them to each other according to who I believe will fit best together. Of course being an RPG-ish game there will be some basic rules for combat, and such, but they will be thrown out the window at times if I feel the story will do better by it. I will provide scenarios, main story updates, and side story progression posts from time to time, but you may RP those out as you see fit.
