summary
Hello and welcome to BTACD, a literate to lit+ original fantasy role-play forum nearing its tenth year. Founded on a pet site long ago as a Neopets guild, we've evolved into an inspiring family-like community of role-players.Here at BTACD, we focus on the suspenseful, dramatic literature everyone yearns for, set in a fantastic in-depth variety of worlds that the members themselves have come up with. There are few limitations; as long as it doesn't break any rules and fits the setting, it's got a good chance of going through. Creativity is welcomed and encouraged. You may make your own species, your own Realms, characters, ideas, whatever. As long as it's not a God or Ether Spirit, you've got a good chance at getting what you want!
Currently, we are on our tenth plot.
Set in a series of alternate dimensions, or 'Realms', those of all races and species fight a constant battle simply to go on living. After three months of peace, so soon after Kairn's plot to remake the world into a hell where only those he deems good enough survive, Felnova is in danger once again. Those of all backgrounds and blood must rally together and rise to the challenge yet again, or fall under the heel of the Fates and be ground into dust.
After the demon Solan Fallenskye's disappearance, his darker half, Chamenos Bloodreign, plots to seize the Silver Throne of the Demon Realm for himself and use the power the position begets to control all Realms in existence with an army of immortal demons.
Allies gather and tension rises; all-out war is upon us!
