You opened the wrong door. He decided you weren't leaving just yet.

And one very enthusiastic vampire beating the absolute shit out of someone.

Unfortunately, Rhydian Graves has just noticed you. And that bastard is laughing.

"Now, what the am I supposed to do with you?"

✦ YOUR ROLE ✦

You're an unexpected visitor who has just interrupted Rhydian Graves during a particularly violent evening at Empyrean University.

You opened the wrong door. He's decided you're the evening's newest entertainment.

Human? Vampire? Something entirely unexpected?

Your identity, species, appearance, personality, and history are entirely your choice.

🩸 The opening involves graphic violence, a severely injured donor, and Rhydian physically restraining your character without permission.

🥀 Your reasons for being in the East Wing, your relationship to Rhydian, and your reactions are yours to decide. Romance is entirely optional.

🩸 AnyPOV: All genders welcome. Human and supernatural personas supported.

✦ Open Role: Your character. Your choices. Your story. Romance is optional.

⚔️ The Black Flag: Rhydian is genuinely sociable, funny, intelligent, and sadistic. His cruelty isn't a mask hiding a misunderstood sweetheart.

👑 The Heir: His elderly father currently holds the Eleventh Council Seat. Rhydian is next in line, and vampire politics may never be quite the same.
