                                           | And we saw what existed beyond the primordial and the base and we rejoiced in horror and epiphany--what we knew was not but a fraction, not but a grain of sand in endless stardust, not but a single desire within the vastness of the supermassive voids of devouring space, and for that moment we realized we were small. No amount of direction, ambition, love, and devotion match the ounce of will of what existed beyond.....And in horrifying actualization, with less knowledge we came in with, we partook of the flesh of god. 


   >|| The Black Script is a series of collective works built upon varying and vastly different individuals. Some may appear as notes, memoirs, research notes, 1x1 roleplays, and many other forms of storytelling. The Black Script is not a necessary part of the story or the roleplay, however the items and themes displayed within here with feature within the main roleplay. I will not write all of them, in fact other (include you reading this) can submit their own. The team will assess it and may add it in.  


     In-universe usage of the Black Script can happen in numerous ways. Entering PSYCHE, Going to the Library within The Academy, Finding Notes on Bodies and LEERE that are dead, Exchanging information with certain people, or even experiencing psychotic breaks within the Sanitarium. The Lore and Story bits you learn through these methods are defined with a [ IU ] or In-Universe. In-Universe information is explicitly usable and readable in-universe. There will also be requirements set in tags like: Owner, How To Receive, Location, Restriction to, etc. Depending on who has the information you could ask the character-owner or ask in-character based on a rumor or a theory your character may have. This does not mean your character or you will receive it, but keep in mind that none of the information will outright make your characters or yourself have access to something greater, it may however allow for a more knowledgeable and more intellectually formidable character.  Be wary however; some information your character may read from the Black Script is damaging to your character's mental fortitude. Some characters may worsen mentally at the cost of greater knowledge and influence. Don't worry there will be a warning with before this effect can take place. 


   Non-IU Black Script items are more for our enjoyment. Theory-crafting, extended bits of lore, informative bits on certain characters, and even potential multi-media works such as art and videos. These Black Script Items are open to all, they may or may not be known by the character depending on the materials, I hope these sections of information--here's a list of tags and their meaning: 


 Tag List 


                                          

  • [IU] || In-Universe || This tag denotes that this information is possible to attain the roleplay's world, these scripts may have dark secrets and could affect your character in various ways.  


  • [META] || Meta || Items meant for the roleplayers eyes only. This information is limited to roleplayers, not characters. 


  • [O: LAST NAME. FIRST NAME ] || Owner: Last Name, First Name || Defines the owner of a paper from The Black Script. There can be multiple owners, you'd have to either steal or receive the information for the character themselves for your character to be privy to it. If I see your character displaying knowledge they shouldn't expect a zealot's reaction. 


  • [LIBRARY] || Library ||  Can be found with the library of the Academy. Any student can gain this information. Or take it. 


  • [PSYCHE] || Found With Psyche || Can only be found within PSYCHE. This information comes at the cost of one's mental health 


  • [WARNING:] || A Warning to the character who reads the contents of this Script || These warning can contain many notifiers: M = Madness (Worsens one mental capacities), T= Tapped Information ( Whoever reads this information is tracked. You must post that your character has read it with their name and a link to their profile), and  F = Forbidden ( If found with knowledge or physical evidence of that certain script labelled with this note then you could find yourself with serious consequences if officials or people representing the school: Super-Egos, Teachers/Instructors or Pyotr--expect punishment to be harsh, but the rewards tempting
