The Fire Rises
(Yet another) Star Wars Story

The year is 5 ABY. The Emperor is dead. The Empire is not.

The Fire Rises is an advanced literate, story driven, character focused Star Wars writing community inspired by Andor, Rogue One, Mask of Fear, and the spirit of political thrillers like Game of Thrones and House of Cards. We focus on the people who make states burn and revolutions endure - spymasters, leaders, politicians, insurgents, and the 'doers' who move history.

This is not a place for power fantasies or cartoon villainy. This is a place for consequence, moral greys, competing ideologies, and the oft overlooked business that moves the galaxy forward.

What we offer:
* A cohesive post-Endor setting grounded in plausibility and consistency.
* Detailed and reasonable lore shaped by player choices.
* No overbearing or convoluted economy, fleet, or combat systems.
* A mature, collaborative environment for experienced writers (18+ only).
* A flexible mix of Legends, Canon, and well-crafted fanon.
* Character driven and character focused relationships, connections, and plots.

If you’ve ever wished Star Wars took itself as seriously as Andor - this is your scene. The fire rises. Which side are you on?

Nestled in a holler deep in the Appalachian mountains of Virginia lies Briar Ridge: a haven town in 1930 welcomin' folks of all walks of life into its humble arms — though them suits from S&C Coal'd do best to leave it well alone, folks don't want their greedy claws here any longer. You could wonder if they're any worse than the loomin' ancient horrors of the Forest, though. She's alive alright, 'n She's mad.

See, folks 'round here are used to Meemaw's warnings 'bout haints, green-eyed prowlers, 'n not-deer, hell even survived those werewolves S&C unleashed — 'n who knows what they're planning next...

Somethin' other than the town's many moonshiners — you can thank Prohibition for that profitable business runnin' rampant here — is lurking under the cover of night. Innocent people torn from their beds on the full moons, their flesh ripped open by razor sharp teeth 'n their blood drained from their body. Mists, folks been callin' 'em — on account of them bein' made of fog; blood-suckin' clouds of the devil, I say.

Despite it all, Briar Ridge takes care of its own: moonshiners, queer folks finally able to be their full selves, businessmen who lost their fortune in the Great Depression, folks of color finding acceptance, (ex-)S&C employees hiding their ties, those calling for blood and those beggin' for peace.

Gaia, the Earthmother, sleeps. And from the fruit atop The World Tree, gods are born during her slumber. You are one of them. You may hold lingering memories from some past life - perhaps previously as a mortal or a god elsewhere - or you may be a blank slate. Aside from what you and your brethren create, there is nothing. Nought but a great tree, and the stars sprinkled in the void sky.

Divinity is an immersive god-based roleplay set in a newly formed world. Inspired by various mythologies, we support a variety of writing styles and character concepts. Many writers might lean towards the more 'literate' end of the spectrum, but 'short and sweet' is perfectly valid. A lot of work has been put into various little mechanics and lore snippets to keep things 'balanced'. There's no 'ban list'. Just a general baseline of trust, and some simple guidelines.

• Rich lore to help immerse you into the setting, and keep everyone on the same page. The depth of which you engage with any aspect is up to you: no one is required to read or remember everything, and work is put in to ensure it's accessible.
• Some simple mechanics to help guide the roleplay, and bring about a rough sense of progression without creating any great disparity between members.
• No more waiting for approval just to create a new species or a new location. Once you're in, you're in!
• A welcoming community that's 100% LGBTQ+ friendly. We don't tolerate bigotry of any kind.
• A custom-made and easy-to-use bot to automatically assist with tracking various figures, such as populations. The focus is on the world and the writing, not the numbers that might guide it.
• A fluid story told by the writers: you control how the world develops, so join today!

₊˚⊹ᰔ WELCOME TO GREENBRIER
With the upcoming season of Courtship and Marriage it is questionable what the future will entail. Potential unwanted suitors are not an uncommon predicament nor is heartbreak and love triangles either. While spring is just beginning and thus, another season of Courting, gossip and rumors spread like wildfire through all social circles, causing chaos and intrusions throughout the Ton.

Trials and tribulations, from long-buried secrets and unwelcome suitors, scandals, no one’s reputation is safe. As characters are forced to confront their own desires and societal expectations, lavish balls, attire and intricate etiquette of the Regency era provide a stunning backdrop for the drama and romance that has yet to unfold…

With lush settings, intricate plots, and captivating characters .. what will your place be within our story that has yet to be written?

Welcome to Cardinal Research and Holding Facility! We are a LITERATE+ lab RP server that is currently active! (No one-liners please! Be descriptive.)

Our community is small but tight knit. A lot of thought goes into the lore, roleplay, and characters. World-building and character development are key components of the role-play here! We try our best to uphold a safe and respectful community.


We provide RP events to promote interaction. NSFW is entirely optional once a user is a VERIFIED adult and placed in its own hidden category. Nobody under 18 will have access and NSFW is not the main theme of this server.

A bleak past and an optimistic future have come to collide together. The gap between the poorest and the richest has grown ever further apart. People live either in strife or in comfortable luxury, and though people are not pleased with the natural order of things, very few have the resolve to try and make change happen (though there is always hope). As Humanity simmers down from one of its most harrowing wars, younger, brighter eyes look onwards to an age of discovery and wealth ahead. In truth, nobody can guess what lies in the years beyond.

Modern humanity is a far cry from the one we knew in the early 21st century. Exerting uncontested dominance over the Orion Arm via the ever-expanding United Systems Alliance, modern society has become fast-paced, unforgiving, and abundant in corporate greed. Humans have since advanced leagues beyond their former selves. Cybernetics, genetic enhancement, faster-than-light travel, and starships are just some of the many, many things accomplished by human hands previously thought impossible.

A new age of interstellar colonialism is soon to begin-and with it, the rise of one particular colony situated at the edge of settled space: Colonia Vega.

An +18 dark medieval fantasy world with > a bit of science fiction > political thriller. Every character has a part to play, and your choices shape a deceitful fate.

No magic races. Just people—messy, flawed human beings driven by power, love, and desperation. The supernatural is subtle, painful, and feared. Our archetypes are reimagined through a darker, more intimate lens.

➛ Story-Driven RP
Plot-heavy. Slow burn. Good 'ol moral gray. Our plots are made to be immersive and personal, where your character’s choices leave real marks on the world (and each other).

➛ Original Worldbuilding
Explore Apollo: a world with its own nations, religion, and politics. From damned royals to war-torn borders, every region offers unique conflicts and storytelling material.

➛ Collaborative + Immersive
We’re here to tell stories together! Whatever you’re into! Be it political scheming, tragic romance, or spiraling character arcs, Apollo’s built for meaningful RP with just the right dose of chaos.

So join us!
And let's write something unforgettable.

Also we’re REALLY COOL

Dusk paints the borderlands in shades of gold and crimson, the sun bleeding its color into the horizon, clouds few and far between. The Mossburn stretches wide, a no mans land of rolling hills and dense forests, fallen into deathly silence save for the rustle of leaves and the distant cries of lonely birds.

Here, the air lies thick with tension, the soil soaked with the memory of battles long past.

On one side, now much changed, sits Kingdom Kirani. It's jagged mountains claw at the sky, obscuring it from sight. A harsh winter clawing at your doors, the invite of war threatening to break in. On the other, Rhallor's open fields roll gently toward the sea, the clang of its bells too distant to hear. The laughter of its citizens masking the bitter rage bubbling beneath. All is quiet now— quieter than ever before. But on either side the whispers of change and future are undeniable, and uncertain.

Quiet, the Mossburn sits, lonely and in wait.
