# The Back Woods

𑁍There’s something in the silence of the woods. Something in the town we’ve found where there seems to be no one around. People are here, but no one truly seems to know why. No one knows who everyone is, and no one understands the monsters that keep creeping out at night. I worry that I will learn them, and I worry that I will be the first to find out.


𑁍In a Horror-based setting, your character has been thrown into a world where things don’t make complete sense. Faced with the challenge of trying to find out what world your character is from, why their memories are missing, and why they have been brought there, you’ll be faced with attempting to find solutions in a city like few others. Navigating around in liminal spaces, working with monsters, some of whom want your character gone while others want to see your character thrive, the Back Woods is waiting for you and what you have stepped into.

𑁍 Offering Light and Heavy plot points for those who don't want to interact deep into the horror aspect and more into lore!

Do you have what it takes to wake up from this nightmare?

https://mirrorsanmirages.carrd.co

"The woods have remembered you ever since you first got lost in them."

Nestled in a holler deep in the Appalachian mountains of Virginia lies Briar Ridge: a farmin' town in 1930 torn between the greedy claws of S&C Coal and the loomin' ancient horrors of the Forest.

See, folks 'round here are used to Meemaw's warnings 'bout haints 'n not-deer, but when werewolves began rippin' holes in houses and tearin' folks limb from limb that wisdom ain't helped none. Town found a cure after more than a year, but they damn-near didn't make it. Many fell to silver bullets and canine fangs, and tensions linger still.

Just as they started to breathe easy again, folks began gettin' dragged from their beds at night, drained from their blood, their throats ripped out. Cryptid attacks became more common; somethin' other than the town's many moonshiners—you can thank Prohibition for that profitable business runnin' rampant here—was lurkin' under the cover of night.

Briar Ridge ain't for the faint of heart, but if you're willin' to put in the work, the haven town welcomes you with open arms. Just make sure those arms ain't goin'ta drag you some place you can't return from.

╰┈➤ Welcome to **Casimir’s Institute**, home of the eldest and most powerful conjurer the world has known. Ignore his absence—surely, he’s just busy. It is the late 1800s, after all.

Hidden in the lush green fields of Iceland, the Institute rests within a mountain-formed castle, centuries old. Through twisting wormholes, inexperienced mages are chosen from across the globe—each a spark meant to shield humanity from forces it was never meant to know.

But now, something is wrong.
A network of nearly fifty institutions has gone dark, now reduced to fifteen. No letters. No ravens. The **Dark Forest** effect has begun.

The curriculum tightens, fear replaces wonder—until one morning, with a blast and blinding light, Casimir and his protective seal vanish. And as the earth seems to hold its breath...
Your teacher reeks of rot.
The shadows whisper at your window.
The world wants you dead.
