The forest outside of the village of Azule is a dark one. Silent during the day and accented with the screams of the fallen during the night, it’s the perfect home for the monsters that hunt in the darkness. Dragons, ghouls, unspeakable horrors. You’ve been told to stay away from the forest, but for some reason, you went in. And for that reason, you will suffer.
In the middle of the woods, there is a castle. Dark and imposing, the basement is filled with monsters. The tips of the spires reach out to claw at the sky. Dragons nest near it, hungry for human flesh. The moat is filled with man-eating fish. The structure is unstable, made of black stone bricks, covered in moss and ivy. But it’s the safest place in the whole forest. At least, it used to be. Then the monsters started attacking. Wave after wave, they broke down the defenses of the castle, until there were only a few survivors left. Survivors who are still there, waiting for their lives to end.
Everyone who gets lost in the woods ends up in the castle. But those who walk into the clearing where the castle lies instantly become cursed. They can never, ever leave the clearing. Whenever they try to leave, the get lost and end up back at the castle. And every week, the castle is invaded by the beasts that live in the woods. The demons grasp and claw, trying to collapse the castle and destroy all that live inside, and they always get a few people, but the majority always pull through.
The rumors about the forest are all dark. Some say the god of darkness lives inside of it, waiting to strike. Some say it has been cursed by the goddess of sunlight so it never sees the light of day. But the truth is it’s a hidden enemy that nobody knows about. The one who commands the monsters. And he wants you dead…
You can play as someone who got lost in the woods and just arrived at the castle, or one of the castle’s original inhabitants who hasn’t died yet. You can even play as a monster if you want! (Any type of monster works, just sea monsters and cave monsters aren’t ideal since this is above ground and not overseas.)
The technology level is in the medieval times. There are cannons in the castle. They can be used during raids.
RULES:
Keep things appropriate, please. No gore, and no 18+ scenes. If you REALLY want to do that… do it in PMs.
Try to be respectful. Nobody likes a jerk.
Do not use swear words, if you need to curse, say (GP) instead.
Cut your quote chains! It’s a hard lesson to learn, but it must be learned.
Speak OOC like *this*
Keep characters under level 5 when you start. You can go above level 5 if they’ve survived a few invasions, or if you ask a mod.
Listen to the mods!
Put the name of a tree in your first post.
HOW INVASIONS WORK:
Every week, there will be an invasion. Usually it will be when the thread is most occupied. Monsters will invade the castle and try to kill everyone inside. The level up system will be the XP system. 15 is the maximum level you can go. Mod characters can go up to 20. All moderators are expected to help with the invasion if they are available, and play as monsters. Invasions may happen more than once a week, if a moderator wants there to be. There must be at least two moderators or myself active for there to be an Invasion. If you’d like, you can play as a monster during the invasion as well.
Remember, invasions aren’t everything in this thread. Roleplay is a massive part too. So this isn’t just a tower defense thread.
