About
Books of Hubris is an episodic dark fantasy RPG and worldbuilding project. We use multiple mediums for storytelling, including play-by-post prose, tabletop-style role playing, invented historical documents, digital art, and more.
Our stories take place in the Republic of Enemies, best described as a nobledark fantasy world with aesthetics inspired by the 16th and 17th century of our own world, but without concern for historical accuracy. 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.
How It Works
At any given time, the group focuses on developing one or two Main Storylines. While a Main Storyline is ongoing, it receives the bulk of role playing and worldbuilding. It is completely okay to role play and worldbuild outside the current Main Storyline, too.
Main Storylines have a predetermined goal or endpoint. The group can also vote to cut off or continue a Main Storyline.
