✦ PRAGUE, CZECH REPUBLIC. 2026. ten years ago, several portals opened simultaneously around the world. doors to an adjacent dimension, these portals gave way to monsters with the power and hunger to destroy the earth as we know it, leaving the human race to fend for themselves until warriors awakened — regular humans with extraordinary abilities, ready to fight and return hope to a humanity on the brink of collapse.
# THEATEROFWARS : an appless fantasy-adjacent roleplay curated to develop muses twenty-one and up through writing encouraged by a system of plot-related tasks and events.

Can warlocks and warriors overexert themselves? If so, what happens? Thanks!
yes, they can. and they do, actually. when warriors overexert themselves is easier because, somehow, they’re used to it. they simply run out of magic and need to be recharged. however, when warlocks overexert themselves is more complicated because that means they used a great deal of magic, even beyond what they should. they usually don’t reach this point, since they know each other well enough to avoid it, yet they can often feel the effects of overexertion after every battle, and they need several hours to recover.
hello ! okay, first, i’m so sorry for the absence on the main, i’ve been sick, like you have no idea, and just today i started to feel better. and second, i have a little update prepared for all of you, so keep an eye out for that !!! for now, i’ll keep working on that and be lurking on the main in case you have any questions or anything you wanna throw my way <3.
all pages are up to date, but i would looove to fill them with new characters ! so if you’re looking for a new place to write, theaterofwars is an appless, plot-driven, fantasy roleplay that just opened its doors for ic interactions yesterday. so come, check us out and join the fun. i’ll be around most of the day, tending to the main, plotting & writing my replies . . . you know what to do !
it is time, my friends ! we are officially open for ic interactions, which means theaterofwars is live and open as a whole ! below you’ll find a few guidelines for you to follow to make this easier and smoother:
from now on, you’re free to post your open or closed starters. remember to tag your opens with tow:starter. & link them in the proper discord channel.
the plot drop designated for this opening is the dancing house, and for now, only threads related to said plot drop are allowed. the tags for this event are tow:plots., tow:thedancinghouse. & tow:plot001.
this may be a silly question, but what do monsters in this world look like? are they of human form or more like creatures from the tv show monarch: legacy of monsters? or something completely different?
not a silly question at all ! while i was creating the lore i always imagined them more or less like baldur’s gate monsters, particularly the most anthropomorphic ones like bugbear, kobold & gnoll. they are often a few feet taller than humans, but not for much, except for those that come out of level six and level seven portals, those can be giants. but yeah, those were my inspiration !
No need to post - could i suggest a channel to comment on dash stuff? Ty!
i’ll post this only so you know i’m not ignoring you. i usually do not create a dash commentary channel because they tend to get cliquey pretty quickly, or someone, unavoidably, feels left out. so if you want to comment about the plot drop or any other dash-related thing, feel free to do it in the regular chat channel !
LIVE BROADCASTING . . . THE DANCING HOUSE. MARCH 24, 2026.
attention, this is an official call to all warriors and warlocks. i repeat, this is an official call to all warriors and warlocks. a new portal has opened in the new town. precise location, 50°04′32″N 14°24′51″E. portal level seven. i repeat, a new portal has opened in town. precise location 50°04′32″N 14°24′51″E. portal level seven. this is a call to all warriors and warlocks . . .
the day is barely beginning when you’re awakened by the blaring sound of the city’s characteristic alarm that lets you know a portal has opened. as usual, and despite the years, the terrified shrieks of the people can be heard between the end of the alarm and the start of the broadcasting that informs you where it is and what type it is, and your heart stops for a second when you hear the last part. you stop in your tracks, shoelaces tangled between your fingers, and you wait. portal level seven, you hear clearly the second time, and the third. and your heart starts to beat faster. you’ve never faced a level seven before. you tie your shoes firmly, put on the rest of your clothes, grab your weapons, and find the rest of your partners in the hallway — all of them look as surprised as you, or as excited, or maybe as terrified, even if they don’t want to admit it. yet you walk toward the new town anyway because that’s why you awakened for.
when you arrive at the dancing house, everything is already a mess, half of the building has been destroyed by the portal, the other is on its way, and monsters keep coming and coming — you’ve never seen monsters as tall, as wide, as angry as the ones you’re witnessing right now. it’s take all of you a second to jump into action, but you do, in the blink of eye, after a deep breath, because that’s why you were reborn.
you were reborn magical to fight.
IC INFORMATION.
to make things more interesting for us and jarring for your characters, a portal level seven is a portal none of the current characters in play has ever faced before, so keep that in mind when plotting and writing.
considering a portal of these dimensions is very unusual and unknown, feel free to come up with your own ideas regarding monsters ( for example, how they look ). some examples could be: they are particularly strong and fast, their magic lasts longer, and their attacks are more precise, hence defeating them is harder ( which means warlocks’ aid will be more necessary than normal ). also, despite monsters being naturally ugly, level six and seven are uglier, even gore-y looking, so take liberties by describing them to your liking !
in character duration will be two days, so updates in the plot drop will be posted during the ooc duration.
OOC INFORMATION.
duration: two weeks. for now. from march 24 to april 7th.
tags: for the plot drop you can use tow:plots., tow:thedancinghouse. & tow:plot001. you can use all of them or just one, it all depends on how you want to organize your tags.
any doubts you might have, the inbox + tumblr ims are always open !
Could you tell us more about enhancer warlocks and what they can do with their powers, even to the extremes? Thank you!
okayyyy. *cracks knuckles* let’s do this ! enhancer warlocks have the main ability to improve warriors’ powers, and how do they do this ? by manipulating their blood. why ? because blood is basically our life, it is what keeps us running, what feeds all of our organs, and keeps the main one operating. one of the main things enhancers can do is manipulate warriors’ magic, since this magic is mixed with their blood. so they can, quite literally, restart a warrior’s energy, make it stronger, even better. another thing they can do is make them recover faster. healers, for example, can close an open wound, but enhancers manage for that wound to heal faster because they manipulate the blood made to close said wound. so they usually work as a team on the battlefield. a third thing enhancers can do, and this would be “an extreme”, is to bring people back from the dead. this, of course, has its limitations. what i mean is they have the capacity to reanimate people. since they can manipulate blood, by manipulating it they can make it run faster, restarting the heart this way. so if someone dies and their heart stops, they can make it beat again ! but this can only happen within the first few minutes of a person dying, as it happens with regular humans in a regular hospital. after twenty-thirty minutes of trying, the warrior/warlock is declared dead :( .
it’s todayyyy. i can’t believe we open for ic interactions in just a few hours. in the meantime, and while i wait for the proper time to post the plot drop, i’ll be answering what i have in the inbox ! so if you have any questions, or maybe an app or two before the party starts, i’ll be around <3.

YANG HYEJI as JIWON “RAVEN” IM,
electricity warrior written by hecate.
could you develop a bit more on the powers of the space warriors? thank you!
of course, let’s do this ! space warriors have control over space, a power also known as chorokinesis. they can treat space like a bubblegum between their fingers, stretch it to their will, then make it a small ball between their tips. they can move spaces, transform spaces, bend spaces, and, of course, teleport. how do they teleport ? mostly, by opening portals, bending spaces, or simply choosing to occupy a different space. this allows space warriors to take monsters by surprise during attacks, but when the warrior is more experienced, it also allows them to tear them apart by tearing apart the space they monster is standing in. however, the teleportation is not only used for and by themselves, but for others and things, too. a lot of warriors use small portals to shoot their guns through them just for the projectiles to appear in a different place, directly into the brains of a monster, for example. another ability space warriors have, but not all of them have enough stamina to execute it, is to create a sort of protective field around people and objects by folding the space around them for a few seconds or even a minute, enough to move them around safely. and to protect themselves, a simpler trick is to divide the space between them and their attacker if they’re fighting face-to-face. all of these are things all space warriors can do, but the last three cost a bit more practice, and are things more experienced warriors are more dexterous at, especially because they also demand more energy.
