Premise


π“˜π“ 𝓣𝓗𝓔 π“‘π“”π“–π“˜π“π“π“˜π“π“–

Ages ago, in time immemorial, there was land nor sea nor sky; there was only


The White Liege

and The Black Lady.



Opposites, yet fundamental forces in their own right, the embodiment and sum of all noble realities and endeavors the world had yet to know;



To be content;

To be ambitious;


To be selfless;

To be hedonistic;


To seek the familiar;

To seek the unknown;


To know humanity;

To know primality;


To follow tradition;

To forge one’s own;


To seek peace;

To seek adventure;


To find stability;

To embrace caprice;


To create civilization;

To explore the wilderness;


Each knew their way was the truth,

Just as they knew the other was their opposite;


Yet they could not-

Would not-


Deny the other

Their own purpose.


And between

The many


Profound,

Captivating,


Enlightening,

Eye-opening,


Axioms,

Passions







There was truth.


And the first of the truths was love;

And love thus beget the world.

Their dreams and visions became the twinkling firmament;
Him the sun in daytime,
Her the moon at night.
She planted the woods and wilds, raised the mountains from bedrock;
He set flagstones, wound and wove the roads between them.

It was their garden;

Their proving grounds;


And it was beautiful.

Man

And beast


Flourished under their watchful, proud eye.
And so their world grew,
And prospered,

Day

And night


For generation after generation.




But now?
The land is splintered.
The stars fall from the firmament.
The two are disjoint.
Discordant.
Apart.
Gone?
The fabric of the world is broken.

Love

Is broken.




But as the stars fall
As hope comes to the earth
Love comes with it.



And just as love made the world,

Might not love yet mend it?




Bardsong is a pan-fandom, sex-positive game inspired by tabletop games and JRPGs. It's open to canon characters, OCs, canon OCs, and CRAU, and themed around adventure, discovery, intimacy, sexuality, and the forming of bonds. Your characters will enter a strange and broken land, master heroic character classes, and dive headfirst into curious new realms, literally piecing together the world and its secrets as they go. Players are encouraged to have their characters investigate and involve themselves in the world, and player plots are welcomed as one more way to have the characters' actions shape the story- and, with it, the world they rebuild together.
