The world was destined to be reborn on January 17th, 2027. And so it happened, humanity crumbling to it's knees while light was taken from the world. For seventeen days Earth saw no light and received no warmth from the sun. In seventeen days life as it had always been known changed forever.
Those unlucky enough to survive were greeted with disease and famine as plants and animals continued to dwindle to the point of extinction. After the Dark Days, and the temperature rose, weather anomalies became the new norm. However unlucky, some of those survivors were also greeted with something new: arcana.
Whether they be major or minor, Arcanist's will find that they have a role to play in the world's survival.
To have arcana is to embody one of the seventy eight cards in the tarot deck.
INVITE ONLY | NONCHALANT AF | PLOT INFESTED SANDBOX | URBAN FANTASY | SMASHED IN APOCALYPSE
The goal is to survive, by any means necessary.
Aye wassup folks. So this isn't meant to be taken entirely too seriously, but it's an idea I've been thinking about for awhile now, and I wanna give it a go.
In this post-apocalyptic roleplay, characters find themselves struggling to survive in a barely navigable world coupled with magical power and newfound obligations. Given a depiction of the tarot card and all the power it encompasses, characters will find themselves pitted not only against each other but against blights born from the Dark Days.
Feel free to team up, go rogue, forge alliances, or craft back-stabbings. Just know that every action will have a reaction IC! Due to the nature of the game, OOC communication and plotting will need to take place.
If you're interested lemme know, oh and there's a character sheet at the bottom of this div.
Magic can be whatever you wish so long as it makes sense for the character's tarot card. Those with trump cards inherently have more arcana and can cast a variety of more powerful spells than their counterparts. Leave a bit of room for growth and remember to add strengths and weaknesses.
