Let's create a dark world!
« on: November 13, 2014, 09:18:40 pm »

((Stolen, (shamlessly) from another forum))

The object is simple, try to create a dark and grim world

The idea is to create a complete setting. (As in, for a story)
One post at a time.
Nothing which contradicts someone else post.
Keep it going grimdark, but sprinkle a few bits of hope here and there. Not too many and not too big or powerful, but a bit of contrast is needed.

Speaking of lowest intelligence, that reminds me of the fact that it's probably your first time in prison. Don't worry, I can give you some tips, having spent some time in a few myself. The best way to make friends here is to drop the soap during shower time. Try it, I'm sure you'll love making friends like that!

Some survived the end by staying in the darkness feasting on blood.

But the supply of blood was not never ending and was quickly diminishing.

But the dead were also blind, which is why they never managed to find the flowing blood rivers.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

(Oddly enough, we've already done something like this at least twice.)

Little did they know that the blood came from the Giants, who were saddened at the world's state but bled themselves so at least someone else would live on and not leave them lonely. And yet, their sacrifice was for naught, as the dead could not find the rivers.

The survivors from the caves sent parties to find the bloody rivers. Most parties died but the few who survived kept there people alive. However, the first blood wars were not far..

And in time, long past the day the humans had given up cultural differences, the rivers dried up, and were forgotten.

Then the unimaginable happened, the blood returned, not to feed, but to flood.
