West Marches-inspired survival-horror RWBY campaign exploring the Grimm-infested western dragon continent. Open game, voice-based, and all experience levels are welcome.
The Black Continent is a West Marches-inspired survival-horror campaign set in a re-imagined world of Remnant. Embark on a multinational effort to excavate the ruins of a long-lost civilization in the Black Continent: a land, thought to be the cradle of civilization, blackened with Grimm and untouched by humanity since the ancient Diaspora. Team up with like-minded adventurers and forge through lush jungles and infested ruins to uncover the tragic history that befell the precursors―and perhaps grim secrets best forgotten.
Beware, you are not a professional huntsman or huntress: you are part of the common-folk, regular people eking out an existence in a world overrun with horrors! The Grimm are relentless, powerful, and cunning―and direct conflict will likely lead to a horrible death. Outside the safety of civilization, your main weapon is creative ingenuity: plan ahead, outsmart and outmaneuver the enemy, and remember to keep your calm―for the Grimm crave fear and despair...
Our rules system, inspired by the OSR and older editions of D&D, is homebrewed specifically for this campaign. It is lightweight with a lower learning curve compared to 5e D&D, facilitating verisimilitude and player creativity against the challenges of a consistent game world without being slowed by excessive rules. Our server is also open-table: hop in one session, focus on your life afterwards, then hop in another one without missing anything. Feel free to try the game once and never again if it is not to your taste; the Black Continent is open for all, and it cares not for who enters or leaves.
Dare to venture forth into the heart of darkness?
