Paracosms and Rinds [ EDIT ]
This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.
Drawn together, tethered together, climb the tower and slay the dark. How many are you? Legion might not be enough.
Paracosms and Rinds is a space-time-beyond hopping campaign. Your character(s) have no strict origin, their destinations are myriad and many perilous. Banded together by a single key, the motley crew of omniversal souls must travel up and up the tower, entering one door at a time. Every night they sleep, and when they sleep they are home once again, but the tower wakes them at proverbial dawn, and they are drawn back together.
