Surviving Ravenloft
~ A Sexy Survival Story in the Domains of Dread ~






~Set-up Currently WIP~
​

~Premise~
The mists of Ravenloft are rising, will you overcome the dread or become prisoner of it? The cosmic joke is on you. The moment you flee from the mist, you find yourself in new Ravenloft territory. Will you and your companions escape this endless labyrinth or surrender to it?

The players will visit each Ravenloft dimension, learning the new rules and territory of that version of these maniacal, cursed lands. Will you band together? Scheme against one another? Find a way home? Or create a new one?


~Character Creation~
Normally in D&D, creatures such as succubus, harpies, vampires, skeletons, Medusa’s, etc are off-limits for players, but not in this campaign! As long as you are up for playing a humanoid, you can choose any race/creature/etc. However, characters and creatures such as canon characters and things like Gelatinous Cubes, Beholders, Gibbering Mouthers, etc. kinda need to be in reserve so I can give you some fun enemies! ;3 You can use any character sheet you like as long it reflects the required info for a D&D campaign. I will also be posting some character sheets!

~ Important Information~

​

Rules & More
Please follow all BMR rules.
No OOC drama, please. (I will not get involved; my family provides enough of that, my gosh...)
This will be a “play-by-post’ D&D campaign.
No meta-gaming, please~~~that ruins the fun.
I may PM you with special info only known to your character, which you may choose to share with your fellow party members.
3rd person writing, however, present or past tense is up to you. I don’t mind either way.

Posting Rate
Please try to post at least a few times a week.
Please inform me about breaks, hiatus and drops (sad to see you go, but love to watch you walk away) so I can keep the campaign flowing and plan ahead, as much as possible.

If your schedule changes and you want return to the madness, I'll be happy to fit you back into the campaign! ;3

Roleplaying 1X1 Small/Private Talk and/or Private Naughty Scenes

During downtime during adventures, when characters begin a 1x1 conversation or sexy times (that has frequent back & forth shorter replies and does not include the rest of the party), please use PMs between yourselves and then paste the PMs in one big post. This will keep the IC more organized. If you want to keep the convo or sexy times private, you can send it privately to me if you believe any information from their chat would be important for the story going forward. Anything that might alter the game or character motives, I do ask you to fill me in, as I may have special events or revelations in store.

A few examples~~~ (quick, poor examples, sorry, please don't actually write like this)

-Small Chat-
PLAYER 1: Jack sat down after barely escaping the Beholder, but he couldn't sleep.
PLAYER 2: Jill leaned against a tree in their camp.
PLAYER 1: "Can't sleep?" Jack asked Jill.
PLAYER 2: "Is it that obvious?" Jill smirked.

If character interactions begin to turn into small chat that don't involve the other players, please use PMing. ;3 Please use PM! Share at your discretion. ;3

-Sex Scene-
PLAYER 1: Jack sat down after barely escaping the Beholder, but he couldn't sleep.
PLAYER 2: Jill leaned against a tree in their camp.
PLAYER 1: "Can't sleep?" Jack asked Jill.
PLAYER 2: "Is it that obvious?" Jill smirked. "Wanna see some of my… trinkets in my tent?"
PLAYER 1: Jack could definitely have his sword polished and followed Jill to her tent.

Please use PM! Share at your discretion in one giant post once the scene has been played through. ;3

- Secret Plots, Sabotage, etc-

PLAYER 2: Jill leaned against a tree in their camp.
PLAYER 1: "Can't sleep?" Jack asked Jill.
PLAYER 2: "Is it that obvious?" Jill smirked. "Say, I've been watching you. I've got some questions." She slinks into her tent.
PLAYER 1: Jack follows curiously.
PLAYER 2: I'm thinking you and I team up. One of our members has a pretty number on their head. Want in on the gold?
PLAYER 1: This made Jack smirk, "Count me in."

Perfect for PM, but if you're building plots, schemes, etc, I really need you to let me in on the PM so I can plan accordingly. Sadly, yes, I have been blindsided like this before as the DM. It was awkward… My players who were not involved in this decision (coup) were confused and I was like a deer caught in the headlights.

~ Character Section ~

​

You and Your Character/Characters

Assuming the Role:
Normally, I wouldn’t mind if the players control minor NPCs, but because I am running this as a system type, it’s going to run smoother (especially for missions, puzzles, shops, etc) if you write only for your personal character/characters. However, for those who have offered a hand in world-building, I might take you up on your offer! ;3

Characters from Character Backgrounds:
Unless the character from your background is canon, their role can be dependent on you to write for them, unless requested otherwise, of course. You can always ask me or another player at your discretion.

Patrons:
You are welcome to create an original Patron and write for that Patron. If you choose a canon patron, that’s where I will come in. Original patrons will have certain limits, of course, but I find it easier for you to control your original patron.

PLOTS, PLOTS, PLOTS ~ Let's Mingle <3

Please feel free to mingle and plot amongst each other in the OOC! Maybe some of you want to be acquaintances? Former lovers? Life-long enemies or rivals? Go for it if you desire!

Character Death/Replacement:
Not enjoying your character but love the campaign? We can make arrangements. Want your character to die so a family member/friend/lover you play wants revenge? We can arrange that too.

Info I Require:
Coups
Pregnancy
Death
Alignment change (proud hero gets too broken down from failure and loss? It happens, but please keep your DM in the loop. <3 )
