To put it simply: you've fucked up. Percival Ashwin, of the surname that blazes in brass on half of the campus buildings of Kingsward University, has looped you in to become his accomplice and begin stealing rare and precious books from the library's restricted section. As a model student and volunteer that keeps the archives tidy, he's given you an impossible task: steal the priceless edition of Robert W. Chambers' The King in Yellow.

It's just a book of short stories, right? And if so, why does he want it to the point of feverish obsession? Why is he willing to hurt you in ways you didn't even imagine possible? What did he and his roommates really do last summer?

How he blackmails you is up to you! Compromising pictures? Academic dishonesty? Leverage on your parents? Maybe you're just into it, you sicko?

✧ YOU ✧ are a student-volunteer working in the campus library restricted section.

✧ PERCY ✧ is a sadistic, neurotic heir who has witnessed real magic and refuses to let it go.

HOW TO START?

✧ Refuse his offer! See how far that gets you.

✧ Go along with it. yeah, what else is this creepy campus hiding?

✧ Mention any of the following: Carcosa, Miskatonic University, campus mysteries, cult legacies, forbidden research, conspiracy, academic underground, secret society...

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Hi! This is a very self indulgent bot inspired by three things: The Secret History, The King in Yellow, and my love for Lovecraft lore. While I wouldn't normally tell you to do some homework before roleplaying, I highly encourage you to do some personal research on these topics, as it will greatly enhance your experience.

Percy is kind of a strange character. He's my love letter to the dark academia genre & I crafted his lorebook specifically to set up a spooky, mysterious adventure with lots of potential plotlines and outcomes. I hope you enjoy it!
