The last thing you remember is either simple or very complicated - you were asleep, or unconscious, or perhaps...you died. Whatever the circumstances, you closed your eyes at home and dreamed of a storm, and when your eyes opened again you were staring at the ceiling of your new home, injured perhaps, but with wounds bound and safe enough. For now.

Upon waking and exploring your new surroundings - a relatively nice, furnished apartment - you will discover a BlackBerry style phone, your apartment key, mail key, and a sensor for "buzzing" into the building, as well as a list of rules to live by in your new home:

1. don't use the elevator between 1:11 and 3:33 am.

2. you will receive mail from 'the building manager' shoved under your door. read it once and then burn it immediately.

3. if someone claiming to live on the fourth floor tries to speak to you, ignore them.

4. never enter the basement, or any area of the building below ground level

5. if you see a shadowy figure in the hallway, run.

The apartment you now find yourself in looks well-kept, the fridge is full, the lights are on, and the whole place looks as if whoever lived in this apartment before you simply packed up and left, minutes ago. Upon exploring outside, well, all you find is the remains of a currently unnamed city, brought to ruin around 100 years ago, with all the decay and rot of a destroyed city long since gone.

What will you be willing to do to survive?

Penumbra is a panfandom, invite-only horror game set in a massive apartment building in a post-apocalyptic city. Inspired by various creepypasta and the music of Ashnikko, themes include surviving with limited resources, hauntings, and other forms of horror, as well as the option of exploring the waste to search for any other signs of life. While the game is mostly focused on creeping dread and psychological horror, there are plenty of mysteries to solve, and plenty of opportunities for characters to affect the direction of the plot.

Characters awaken in their new apartment in Penumbra Place, a massive apartment building that is the only sign of life on a long-post-apocalyptic world, where they are given a set of rules to live by in their new home, lest they die in that new home. A shadowy figure stalks the halls at night and other horrors await beyond every apartment door...

Players must have an invite to join. Events and TDMs occur bi-monthly on a rotating schedule. Apps, reserves, and invites are always open.
