Black Skies Roleplay Wiki

Welcome to the Black Skies Roleplay Wiki!
The wiki for Black Skies RP, a late-Victorian steampunk RP about war, exploration, invention, and a never-ending race for survival.

Our Tale So Far...
Black Skies RP is a roleplaying game for Reddit, which takes place in a completely original steampunk fantasy world, analogous in many ways to our own Victorian Era. We envisioned an alternate Earth with alternate cultures, wherein the Age of Exploration never happened, and was instead replaced by the Age of Steam. This has the effect of making technology much more advanced than in our own time, whereas colonialism is only starting to occur in 1744 AE -- the beginning of the game.

It opens up to a time of relative peace, following several wars and drastic political climate change, at the start of the World’s Fair: a showcase of culture, art, technology, and unity on behalf of the various governments to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the Alchemy Guilds -- with the highlight being the alchemy competition held every seven years. The prize is the Roelandt Grant, which grants one lucky winner the money and resources to support their alchemy project until completion, no questions asked.
