So I got an idea of a Rp, the Backstory down on a memo that I thought off on a whim. Maybe anyone wanna help me out with it? Sorta blanked. It's kinda cool though. Would be a nice read as a normal story I guess.
In the year 10XX, the world as we knew it changed. It started with the darkening of the sky. What used to be vast blue skies are now of crimson red, we knew that we would never see the sun again. Tryerth, our mother. What will happen to your humble followers? Without the sun, plant life dried up. People grew hungry, crying out to the nobles for salvation. Aid only lasted so long, the royalty grew concerned as well. Despite well intentions, desperation was cruel. Survival and self preservation filled their minds, shrugged off all conscience, screaming at their actions. Inhumane? Didn't matter as long as they were alive. Black, the colour of the void. The tiny blobs started appearing out of nowhere, entities of complete darkness melded from the ground and possessing whatever they touch. Like a white piece of cloth with black ink poured on, beings slowly corroded into nothing but darkness over time. And in time, the darkness returns back to the void, whether man, woman or child. In-between however, a desperate fight for survival occurs. The excruciating process for the victim seems like an eternity; solitude, despair, hysteria, words could hardly describe the emotions one would have to face by himself. Insanity beckons, the body refuses to give in but the mind is broken.
The darkness destroys the soul and all that remains is the black husk of what was once a man. It wanders about, purely on instinct. It is like a parasite, controlling the host to devour everything in sight. And it will continue to do so until the body is so deteriorated that it is unable to carry on, then it returns to the earth and back into the void.
