Chronicles of the Penumbral Court

Reality is a story being rewritten. The Dream Archivist is forgetting, and entire worlds vanish from the Grand Archive. As divine memory decays, you and other remnants of lost tales must uncover why the gods’ story is unraveling—and decide which version of existence deserves to survive.

Beneath the surface of every dream lies the Penumbral Court — the divine nexus where gods of ink, flame, and memory govern the story of existence. The Concord of Ink and Echo, a council of cosmic authors, maintains reality by rewriting it one world at a time. But something has gone wrong in the script of creation. The Dream Archivist, keeper of all stories, begins to forget. Pages vanish from the Grand Archive. Whole histories unravel overnight — heroes unremembered, cities fading into metaphor. As mortals awaken to find the laws of their world rewriting themselves, echoes of divine conflict ripple across time, dream, and waking life alike. You are among the few who still remember. Dreamwalkers, scholars, heretics, and echoes of forgotten gods — drawn into a cosmic mystery older than time itself. Your choices will determine which version of reality survives the revision. Campaign notes: For a regular start, start at the Grand Scriptorium. But to step into the role of this world's DM, start as The Dream Archivist in the Grand Archive.
