The year is 1891. Seven years since Voldoa was founded. Two since the War of Supremacy was officially declared over by the governments of Europe. It's the middle of November and the snow is beginning to pick up again.

Voldoa, to this day, still stands in the comfort of the mountain range, its existence completely unknown to the outside world. The Engineers have brought in most all of the remaining survivors of the dying conflict, brought upon by the rest of mankind. As of the most recent months, they have begun expanding their operations to areas outside the continent. New arrivals are fewer and farther between now but, those that are already present have all made suitable homes for themselves. All sorts of beings and creatures that folks read about in books and plays, all living under the watchful vigil of the Engineers.

There are, however, mysteries. Questions intentionally left unanswered. Why have the Engineers done this? What are they looking to gain from it? What lies in the Undercity that they may bring up countless gifts of meat, flesh, and blood from its depths? They never say. But in the end, many forget to ask. They are, after all, happy.

And as well as that, they are safe.

So if you’re reading this and you’re interested, first of all, welcome. Second, I have compiled a list of relevant information and terms here to better spell out the game world, including a watercolor map of the area. Read over everything, and you should have a solid idea of what to expect. If you want me to elaborate on anything, just say the word.



With all that done, now you're ready to move on to the exciting part, which is...

---

To start off, here's the format you'll be using for all of your character submissions.


As you can tell, it's very bare-bones. That's because I've decided it'd be better to build up your character as the game goes on rather than spend an aching amount of time writing out extraneous details. This way, getting a character ready is simple and not time-consuming in the slightest. If you'd like an example of what a submission should look like, take a peak at the CHAR tab.

Now, the rules. Other than what you should already expect (the stuff about behavior and etiquette you'd read in most every other game), here's the important stuff to note.

• Once you have written up your character, either show them to me in a private message or post them in the OOC for approval. Once that's done, then you can put it in the CHAR tab and post in the IC tab when you're ready.
• Monster characters can be any kind of monster you like. Werewolves, vampires, angels, demons, wendigos, mothmen, I am cool with just about anything. But do take into consideration how large and/or powerful what you pick is/are. Variety is, after all, the common preference.
• And if you want your Voldoan character(s) to possess Hand status, you'll have to run that by me too.
• What's more, human characters are definitely allowed, although for the most part, they have to be Tier II Engineers. Regular human folk don't even know the city exists, and Tier Is and IIIs are too busy outside and underground. I can make exceptions, of course, but we'd have to discuss them first.
• This is up to personal preference, but I generally find a character is built up more favorably by interacting with and talking about them rather than spilling their entire story out onto the sheet. But again, personal preference.
• Date, time, and location stamps. I will be stressing these in order to keep things from getting too confusing in terms of when and where things are happening. It'll help you move interactions along without having to worry too much about consistency. Put them at the top of all your posts and you'll be good. Here's an example of what they should look like.

• I have some events and subplots planned. But you'll be encouraged to come up with your own stories and happenings, as insignificant or all-encompassing as you like. Although, the major things will have to be run by me first.
• The game will feature some mature content. And not just the sexual variety. So there's that.
• Flesh Golems are not playable due to certain lore implications.

And that about covers it. Should you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to voice them.

About how many sexual pleasures can one recieve from Voldoa as an RP?

Enough.

Hi, room for more?

Always room for you, bud.

If this is still open, I have a concept for a dullahan character if that's okay.

Dullahan! Very nice. Just so long as they don't go around murdering folks for shits and giggles.

Nah I was thinking if we're allowed to own stores he could run a tavern in town, as well ad being the bartender, occasional performer, and bouncer.

I love this idea and if you make it happen, I'll be putting that tavern to frequent use.

Something I was thinking of, I don't know if you've read the fables comics, but they have a treaty for the town saying anyone who becomes a member of the town has there past Crimes and such wiped, and us expected to follow the town's precepts from that point on, seems like that could work in this setting, allowing for some "repentant" monsters to have a well known monstrous past.

Sounds like it'd fit. Hell, I could put that on Kantus.

Although he's not really the repentant type.

Well of course there'd be the ones who just sign to get the protection, hell my character isn't going to be repentant, just trying out a new life. But that's one of the things I liked about the concept, where the people you live with might have grudges with you, but you can't act on them since the law says they are now innocent.

Sounds good. Can't wait to see your submission.

Thanks, it'll probably be up Wednesday, gonna be doing some research on taverns and duhallans, just have a basic idea of what they are, and won't have internet tomorrow. But got a good bit of conceptual ideas going.

If you need me to make a picture for you like I did for @SepticGentleman, myself, and @Gingerboi123 (although he hasn't posted it yet), let me know. I'm happy to do so.

Sounds good man. The IC may or may not start tomorrow but that won't deter any following entries.

You're gonna be framing a lot more of my shit by the time we kick this horse into gear.

WOOOOOOOOOOOO

Well this idea is entrancing to say the least. I should have a character run by you soon.

Or two, if we may control several?
