coughSo it's come to my attention we don't really have a formal introduction thread, so, uh... this is that.
So, er...
Welcome to Mundus!
Or rather, welcome to Cosmic Carnage.
Cosmic Carnage is a role-playing forum where writers with their own original material can work together to craft stories in the shared fictional location of Mundus.
Mundus is a planet of extreme dimensional instability, so people, creatures, objects, and even entire locales from separate universes can fall into it! Currently, the only known landmass on Mundus is the continent of Lemuria, where a number of stories are already beginning to unfold and intertwine. Lemuria may very well have been created by dimensional debris falling into the Sapphire Abyss, the global ocean of Mundus, so the possibilities are endless!
Want to tell a fish-out-of-water story? Or a story about an original character adapting to strange, new circumstances? Drop them onto Lemuria! New arrivals can occur at any time and any place.
Interesting in playing out a different sort of story? That's fine too! Some people and peoples have been on Lemuria for many years. A few have been here for so many generations that they think of themselves as natives, not immigrants. Any sort of story can be told here in Cosmic Carnage.
But please keep in mind Cosmic Carnage is a collaborative effort. The intended main draw is to interact with other creators through your characters and settings.
To get you up to speed on the fiction of Mundus, here are a few useful threads we put together for ourselves so far:
1. The geography of Mundus.
2. The races of Mundus. This thread is also a collection of links to other posts, so follow them at your leisure to learn about some of the most populous sapient species on Lemuria. This is not a full list of characters or inhabitants however. For an in-depth look at Lemuria's population, you can view each member's contribution of giant monsters, small characters, creatures and peoples, and boss characters. Boss characters can be either small or giant, but are limited to six per member overall.
3. The factions of Mundus. If you're planning on bringing a large force or very powerful character to Lemuria, or if you just want your character/s to be knowledgeable about the sociopolitical climate of the continent, this will thread will tell you about all the big players already here. Included are all groups on Mundus with notable military might and likely significant llandownership as well.
4. Finally, a summary of the story that's unfolded thus far, with links to the involved characters.
If you're still unsure about something, ask us here!
