Welcome to TRENCH CRUSADE - World RPG !

A grimdark world where the Crusades and the First World War meet !

Following a terrible event, the world is forced to wage war with the forces of hell in a No Man's Land that stretches as far as the eye can see. Will you side with the loyalists, or with the heretics?

WARNING : THE CONTEXT AND CONTENT IS DARK

CONTEXT :

After the first crusade in 1099, which saw the capture of Jerusalem by the Templars, they did the irreparable and committed the ultimate heresy by opening the Gates of Hell, creating a cataclysm and razing Jerusalem from the map. For more than 800 years now, human forces, aided by heaven and the Lord have been fighting the forces of Hell across thousands of kilometers of trenches. The immense expanse of No Man's Land is the scene of fierce and horrible battles.

We are then in 1914, the Year of Our Lord, a major date in the war as both sides prepare for an unprecedented offensive...

FACTIONS :

TRENCH PILGRIMS

Many devout see it as their sacred duty to make the pilgrimage to No Man’s Land and throw themselves at the forces of Hell with righteous wrath. These zealots band together into vast pilgrim processions, fighting an endless Crusade against the blasphemous foe.

HERETIC LEGION

In the domains where men worship demons and kneel before the altars of the Golden Calf, mortal followers, flanked by the abhorrent progeny of the underworld, muster under the black banners of mighty Arch-Devils. The fires spewing from the open Gate of Hell light the black skies as they march forth to bring all of Creation under their infernal yoke.

NEW ANTIOCH

For three hundred years the Principality of New Antioch has stood defiantly as the focal point of the Faithful at the very edge of the shadow cast by the Gate of Hell. It is the Home of All Our Hopes, the bulwark against Heretic forces and the first line of defense against the devil’s might.

COURT OF THE SEVEN HEADED SERPENT

Jutting from plumes of stinking, corrosive smoke is the Iron City of Dis and atop its shrieking, black keep sits the Infernal War Council. Seven of the greatest, most wicked and most cunning of Arch-Devils preside over the war against Creation, and upon their orders do the spawn of Lucifer go forth to wreak death and corruption upon the mortal world.

THE SULTANATE OF THE IRON WALL

Beyond the Invincible Iron Wall of Al-Quraysh lies the last and the greatest Sultanate of the Faithful the world has ever seen. Here the lost knowledge flourishes and, from mosques of white marble and gold, the muezzin call the faithful to pray for the success of the Sultan’s army as it struggles to protect the lands within the wall, and defend the caravan trails that provide the Sultanate with vital supplies. 

THE BLACK GRAIL

Concocted by Beelzebub themself, the Black Grail is the most calamitous plague that has ever ravaged this bleak world. Not living, not dead, its victims become vessels to spread the corruption of their new master. Those depraved enough to willingly embrace this “gift” become nobles of the Order of the Fly, forming warbands and shepherding their lesser brethren to find and infect life of any kind.
