In the wake of the Fall of the Gods, Earth has been reduced to a wasteland of shadow and fear, and nowhere is safe—not even the abandoned halls of Elmwood University.
A small group of college students, desperate and alone, seek refuge on the desolate campus, hoping its thick stone walls might shield them from the horrors outside. But their sanctuary quickly turns to nightmare when they realize something else has come to campus—something far worse than any mortal threat. Erebus, the God of Terror, has crossed into their world, and he’s here to hunt.
With his sinister, godly powers twisting the very air around them, Erebus warps reality into their worst fears, dragging each of them into their own private hell. As their numbers dwindle and the night grows darker, they must summon courage beyond reason to face an ancient terror. For on these haunted grounds, even light may fail them, and Erebus is only getting started…

Cecilia is slender and blonde, standing just over five and a half feet tall. She is beautiful, yet unassuming.

Her family roots can be traced back to the Mayflower, a point of particular pride, alongside the women's traditional membership in Daughters of the American Revolution. Cecilia herself holds little connection or affection for her roots, instead, focusing on her affinities. What were once painful and prescribed piano lessons at an early age, had turned into a joy and proven to be something she has a natural talent for.

Her family, like many others in the area were staunchly religious with Scarlet only adopting elements she personally identified with, but a trip to church to keep her family happy was certainly within her ability.

Spoiler: Cooper
Name: Cooper Woods Age: 22 Grade: Senior Gender: Male
Spoiler: Appearance
Personality: Cooper is on the reserved side and will often succumb to peer pressure or simply going along with the group decision because that is easier than fighting against it, even if the group is about to make a mistake. In the days before the fall he was a film student and documentarian. He has an eye for detail and often notices what other people will miss. Speaking up for himself can be a challenge, though if motivated enough he will speak his mind.
Brief History: The pacific mid-west is Cooper's home. He longs for the trees and fresh air of his home town. This was part of his choice when looking at colleges and universities. An only child, Cooper was fairly used to being the center of attention he found himself lost in the larger world of students at school. He is dependent on others for large parts of his survival, but contributes with his knowledge of nature and plants.

Reason: Completed adding characters
Ayden stands at 6'2" with a lean, toned build, the result of years spent running high school track. Weighing around 180 lbs, his frame hints at subtle muscle, balanced by his athleticism. His light sandy-brown hair and enigmatic hazel eyes give him a striking look, while his chiseled features and sun-kissed, light-bronze skin—earned from summer runs under the sun—lend to his easygoing charm.
Personality: Confident and optimistic, Ayden is a risk-taker with a love for fun. He can be blunt and sometimes even a bit deceptive, unafraid to admit to being slightly selfish and, on occasion, a jerk. He’s fiercely loyal and caring with close friends and family but holds little regard for strangers, easily putting his interests first if it benefits him. When he's not busy charming people with his charisma, he’s either goofing off with his friends or enjoying his knack for turning heads.
Brief History:
Ayden was raised as an only child in a Catholic household, but by his early teens, he had shifted to atheism. Initially, he kept this belief private, but he grew more open in high school, freely sharing his views with anyone who asked. Throughout high school, he excelled in varsity track and cross-country, specializing in 5k races.
Determined to afford college, Ayden studied diligently to secure scholarships and worked multiple part-time jobs. He worked as a server at a popular Italian restaurant near his university. Alongside his job, Ayden is active in his school’s Army ROTC, aiming to become an officer. With a long-term goal of becoming an FBI special agent, he plans to leverage his military experience as a stepping stone toward his ambition.
Spoiler: Emma
Name: Emma Chen
Age: 18
Grade: Freshmen
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Spoiler: Emma
Emma stands at 5'1" and weighs just over 110 pounds, with a slim hourglass figure maintained by a diet of wholesome cultural meals and an active lifestyle. She has deep, dark-brown eyes, often enhanced with glamorized makeup. Her silky black hair, touched with blonde highlights, complements her sun-kissed skin, the result of many days spent tanning. Emma gravitates toward a preppy college-girl style, often seen in sorority T-shirts, black leggings, and tank tops. She likes to add unique touches with cultural accessories, including her signature tiger-eye bracelet, a lucky charm she never leaves behind.
Personality: Emma is a lively and social young woman from an upper-middle-class family, attending a state university. Outgoing and extroverted, she enjoys spending time with friends and is a regular at social gatherings. While her attention to appearance, reputation, and finances can come across as materialistic or even shallow, those close to her know she has a warm heart and cares deeply for her friends, often showing kindness in quiet, genuine moments. She's the kind of person who won’t hesitate to approach a new face and start up a conversation.
Despite her confidence, Emma isn’t without her insecurities. Stressful situations—like a poor exam grade or drama among her sorority sisters—can overwhelm her, and she often tries to avoid confronting them head-on. Having lived a relatively smooth life, untouched by serious hardship, she’s never faced significant adversity. But with the world unraveling around her, she’ll have to confront her vulnerabilities and find the strength to fight back against the chaos.
Brief History: Emma, the youngest of three, was often doted on by her parents and older siblings. Growing up, though, she went through her share of awkward phases in middle and early high school, marked by her high-pitched voice and glasses (which she’s since swapped for contacts). Unfortunately, she was often teased and, during her freshman year, became the target of cyberbullying, with classmates posting nasty comments about her on social media. By sophomore year, she’d had enough and pleaded with her parents to let her transfer schools.
The change in environment gave Emma a fresh start. Though she wasn’t part of the popular crowd, she found relief in being free from the relentless bullying. She eagerly started college to start a new chapter in life and fully embrace her new beginning. Her freshman year brought a close-knit group of friends from her dorm and sorority, her first real parties, and a chance encounter with Harry, who quickly became her boyfriend. She's dutiful with her academics too with a major in International Studies and a minor in Chinese studies.
Spoiler: Seb
Name: Sebastian "Seb" DeLeon
Age: 21
Grade: College Junior
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Spoiler: Sebastian
Sebastian stands at 5'11 with a lean, athletic build and sun-tanned skin from a lifetime of outdoor activities. His dark hair is short and usually unkempt, with a few strands falling over his eyes, which are a piercing blue with a watchful, wary look. A faint scar cuts through his left eyebrow, giving him a hardened edge. Seb dresses simply, usually in a plain T-shirt under a worn leather jacket and jeans, projecting a no-nonsense vibe that fits his solitary personality.
Personality: Quiet, intense, and self-reliant, Sebastian is very much a lone wolf. He tends to keep people at arm's length, observing rather than engaging, and prefers his own company to that of others. Deeply cautious and reluctant to trust, he has a quick instinct for danger and a strong survivalist mindset. While he’s capable and resourceful, his tendency to push others away makes him hard to know, and his protective side is only seen by those who manage to earn his respect. His quiet loyalty runs deep, but it takes time and persistence to gain his trust.
Brief History: Raised in a remote, rural town, Sebastian learned early on to fend for himself. He grew up exploring the woods and learning survival skills, which made him resilient and self-sufficient. He initially went to college on a sports scholarship but dropped off the radar after an injury forced him off the field. Since the fall of the gods and the ensuing chaos, he’s been navigating this new, hostile world largely on his own, only recently joining up with other survivors. Though he keeps to himself, his knowledge of survival tactics and steady demeanor in the face of danger have made him an unexpected but vital ally for the group.
