characters are dead, but their journey isn't over yet... they enter into a transitional state between what was Before and what's Next, and have to Cross to get to where they need to go.

they'll have to Cross a few times, as it turns out, and Crossing is harder than it sounds

characters will begin the game with (most of) their memories intact, but each time they have to perform a Crossing (roughly every 3 months OOCly), they'll have a choice: either give up a memory to The Ferryman to guarantee a safe Crossing, or try to make the journey on their own, and take on the risks that come along with that

The Crossing also causes the game's setting to morph into something new (again, roughly every 3 months OOCly), and the kinds of characters & the memories they choose to give up will influence the kinds of settings that emerge, as well as how they're populated

the focus of the game is going to be on personalized character experiences, collaborative setting-building, and opportunities for characters to engage with and guide the metaplot. we're looking at (hopefully) a TDM in early november, with the game itself opening early december

if that sounds up your alley, great! take a look at our FAQ, consider giving us a replurk, or just comment here to let us know! we'd love to get a feel for the level of interest for this type of game, especially now that we have a bit more built out

some pages are still under construction, so pardon our dust! if you run into a link that goes to a protected entry, don't worry about it -- we hope to have it up for everyone soon!

dwrp would love a replurk, if you don't mind!

whelp

DEfinitely interested. Do you have any general idea of when you'll go 'live'? I am working a lot of hours right now so I wouldn't like to spread too thin, but I do have a character for this.

that does look interesting!

Erichthonios: hi!! we'll have some more concrete dates for everyone once we've got our ducks comfortably in a row/ideally alongside the information about our first setting going live, but! we're hoping to have our first TDM go up in the next 1-2 weeks, and have our first round of apps early December

Oh man this is so exciting! Thank you for your reply and that sound absolutely perfect. I do wish you guys a fun time preparing it!

obligatory what about clearly non-human characters?

(I am the player who always asks that)

Joysweeper: death doesn't discriminate, so they say! as long as they can be dead, they're fair game. character souls manifest into a ""body"" based on their idea of themselves/expectations of what they "should" look like, so no obligatory humanization either

gosh I would. love to bring one of my shadar-kai here for SO MANY REASONS (up to and including "what, it STUCK this time??")

oooooh

Potentially interested and looking forward to the TDM ☺️
