Overview
Books of Hubris is a collaborative dark fantasy storytelling and worldbuilding project. We use multiple mediums for storytelling, including play-by-post role playing, tabletop-style role playing, prose and poetry, invented historical documents, digital art, and more.
Our stories take place in the Republic of Enemies, a dark fantasy world with aesthetics inspired by the 16th and 17th century. This is a world that is full of terrifying and tragic things, but nestled among the darkness are glimmers of hope and beauty.
We are looking for members who want to explore themes such as: cycles of violence, familial bonds, the price of power, the overwhelming nature of instincts and emotions, and what (if anything) separates humans from monsters.
What We Do
At any given time, the group focuses on developing one or two ongoing Chapters. Ongoing chapters are the current focus of worldbuilding and role playing. The group can vote to end a chapter once they feel it has reached a natural conclusion.
This system is intended to provide structure and focus. That said, members are free to worldbuild and role play outside of ongoing chapters.
