Forgotten Names
Forgotten Names is a text-based RPG.
You’re one of the five Northern Gates Council members. Your territory is strange to say the least, with eerie, sentient woods and something beyond your border that no one speaks of. You've assumed the position as one of the rulers recently, so you’re still trying to figure it out.
That would be hard enough by itself, but one night you receive word from the Silent Throne that you’re being summoned to the court, because something happened. So you must depart immediately.
An uncanny forest, magic, a lost legacy, royal problems and conflict between regions. Welcome to Eblur Kingdom. And be careful not to forget your name.
The project is currently in progress, but you can play the first 10 chapters here: https://dashingdon.com/go/8241
LAST UPDATE: 7/5/21 - Currently on hiatus
The game currently features:
The option to play as female, male or non-binary
The option to choose your position in the Council and the way you use your power
The option to choose from four different paths, based on your strong points and inclinations (inventor, artist, spellcaster or scythe user)
Yes, you receive a war scythe instead of a sword. See how that works!
A complicated web of relationships you have to navigate through.
Choosing what's important for your MC. And probably changing it later on, as your character grows.
Three romance options (one non-binary and two based on your stated preferences)
At least one bar fight
A journey through six different territories (from their geographical layout to their history)
Becoming a part of a motley crew
Nuances of moral dilemmas starting from chapter 9
Did I mention the dragons?
CONTENT & TRIGGER WARNING: Explicit violence, mentions of self harm & suicide (including suicidal thoughts), graphic death, graphic bodily fluids, especially blood & vomit, substance abuse; (as the story goes on, other elements might be added)
Here I’ll post more details about each update and we can talk in more detail about the story or the characters. I’m excited to hear your feedback and to be inspired by you in creating this world:)
Bear in mind that it's very much a work in progress and with every update, previous scenes will suffer changes (for the characters and their reactions to become more nuanced and organic). I encourage playing from the begining when there's big update, so it doesn't feel woobly because you missed something added after your last play.
Below you have the link to the Choice of Games forum. Also, that’s the place where the updated link will always be found.
My asks are always open!😁
