Ashvale Manor
|
Atop an imposing hill, Ashvale Manor stands
in eerie isolation, its aged facade casting a solemn shadow over the
encroaching meadows and the shrouded forests beyond. Legend whispers of the
original manor's fiery demise at the hands of its enigmatic founder, only to
resurrect itself brick by charred brick. A testament to the grandeur of a
bygone era, the manor exudes an opulent elegance, each corner meticulously
kept, every surface immaculate. Yet, an unsettling undercurrent lingers, as if
a forgotten darkness seeps through the polished veneer and ornate wallpaper.
Venturing deeper into the labyrinthine halls, a palpable sense of foreboding
descends like a shroud. The very air hums with a spectral energy, as though the
veiled phantoms of the past find solace in the dimly lit corridors. Bewitched
by the flickering dance of candlelight shadows, elusive apparitions flit on the
periphery of vision, fleeting and elusive. Once the thriving center of a robust
plantation, the manor now surrenders to the whispers of its own tragic history,
its fate intertwined with the legacy of a wealthy yet debauched widow.
While ostensibly open to the public, a peculiar reluctance hangs in the air,
dissuading all but the most intrepid from venturing beyond its gates. Curious
visitors find themselves drawn inexorably to its threshold, only to discover
the manor's unyielding grasp, where the count of those who enter rarely matches
those who depart.

OOC
|
This dreamworld is homage to Haven 5.0's The Mansion. While this
dreamworld focuses more on the paranormal, there is still an overtone of a
harsh social hierarchy between the lower and higher classes. Sex and sexual
scenarios are allowed, but should be used less frequently as other themes.
TL;DR: This is a haunted house. There is a general feeling of danger and
foreboding at every turn. Apparitions and even monsters are known to appear
without warning. No one is safe. Expect the possibility of death.

Roles
|
Servant
These are the people and beings that are subjugated to
the manor. Servants have myriad jobs, ranging from housekeeping, to fieldwork,
to body disposal. These souls never leave and are at the beck and call of the
manor's residents and guests.
Visitor
Visitors are people who may freely come and go from the Ashvale
manor. Do all visitors truly come and leave of their own volition? Not always.
Resident
Residents of Ashvale manor are either family of the
matriarchal widow or lifelong friends and companions of those who choose to
embrace the manor's horrors. These people, especially if in the bloodline, have
the most control in the manor, outranking visitors, and certainly overstepping
servants.
Lurking Horror
These are the physical creatures and beasts that
terrorize the grounds and even the corridors of Ashvale manor. Lurking Horrors
can target any unfortunate soul they come across, though they are less inclined
to harm residents. Servants and visitors make wonderful snacks.
Apparition
Apparitions are the malevolent spirits that torture all
living beings alike. They are cruel, merciless, and downright malicious,
thirsty for blood and empowered by sheer terror.
These spectral figures can take the form of anything imaginable, and while they
themselves are not corporeal, they can manipulate physical objects and even
possess the living.
