You die. You may not know why, or how, or when, and if you were dead before, consider yourself now colossally deceased. You're lost, vulnerable and still attached to pieces of your home, and you dwell in a Netherworld capable of eternal torment and cruelty. Monsters older than the universe lurk in the corridors of a ghastly labyrinth, and your darker side grows sentient -- a Shadow, an entity living in your head. It's the devil on your shoulder, your self-condemnation, and everything in you that yearns to destroy your own accomplishments and lash out at the world. Selfish, sadistic, and seductive, the Shadow will bribe, cajole, threaten and occasionally take control, all in the interest of edging you one step closer to the eternal precipice. The faint light of the possibility of Ascension merely allows the horrors of the Netherworld to cast longer, deeper shadows, and your goal, simply put, is to survive through the many dangers of the Netherworld by forging strong connections and conquering your inner demons. In short, you must try to reconcile your Shadow and your Self, live your passions, and weaken Oblivium, the corrupting hunger of entropy that fuels the Shadow and marshals legions of Spectres.

Welcome to Nightfell, a panfandom horror fantasy/sci-fi game of dualities that revolves around themes of survival and conflict, in a world where emotions are key elements.
