How do I change the image that shows with my posts? Go to the character's profile and click on the button in the top right: Click "Choose Photo" and upload an image. Image size will vary depending on where its shown on the site but the size that Morrigan uses is 800x350. What is a magical vs non-magical beings? Non-magical beings are humans that do not have any innate supernatural abilities. So a self-taught mage is still considered a "non-magical" being as they do not have innate magical abilities. What are gods? Are they playable? Gods on our site are refe -
e power but just supernatural beings with enormous amounts of power. It is believed that a good portion of them were some sort of Faerie creature or powerful mages. As it stands, gods are non-existent. Whether they have disappeared of their own accord or were killed by people depends on the god but power of that magnitude is no longer in the quantity that it was before. I want to play a race that isn't listed? Can I do that? You can currently only play the available races listed in Species. If you have a race that you are interested in, we encourage you to pitch the idea to the

I sought out knowledge and to disprove the supernatural only to end up intertwined in its sadistic grip. Furskin Origins Furskins are never born but always created, often by people that don't understand the ramifications of what they are doing. Some original furskins did it as a form of revenge against an extremely strong enemy or protection from a potential enemy. Rarely, furskins are created as a means to gain power but not unheard of. The need for this sort of creature has subsided but they still exist. Modern furskins primarily come in two varieties: Those that are seeking p -
Magic in the world of Grim Horizons is everywhere and anyone can harness and utilize magical powers, some are more adept at than others. The Wicca religion, in particular, has always known the power of the world of magic. In the past, before they were persecuted and documents and traditions destroyed, were learned mages and far more powerful. The modern Wicca that is practiced now is a form of the traditions and manipulation of magic. It is no where near as potent and not often seen as true magic. For example, things like Tarot, if done correctly, can accurately depict ones future. -
POst here the things.

I once chose heroes to fight in a great war, now I simply watch the world burn by the hand of the village idiots. Valkyrie Origins Valkyries history is a little convoluted as what they represented was more well known than how they came about. The truth of the matter is that they began as a mages curse. A man slighted by a beautiful woman who was married and in love with a soldier. The mage was furious that the woman would not share his bed and so he cursed her to never see her husband again, for if she did he would certainly die in the next battle he was in. -
The thumping of your heart is like a tune I can never stop dancing to. I will forever turn in this dance of the night. Always hungry. Never tired. Kindred Origins Kindred are descendants of the first murderer Caine. Being that they tend to have long memories and are immortal they do not confuse their history. Caine was cursed by god after he killed his brother. He would always seek out blood and roam forever. His curse would become the curse of those stupid enough to cross paths with him and join him on his endless roam. Caine has turned only a select few through his time which -
I walk a line between two worlds and protect all that I can. Every death I can't prevent eats at me and I can't sleep. I still see the werewolf dead at my feet when I close my eyes. Why couldn't I save them too? Hunter Origins Hunters have messy and misunderstood origins as well as existence. Most believe hunters become hunters as they survived a supernatural attack of some sort and want to kill or harm supernatural beings so it doesn't happen to someone else. For some, especially hunters that weren't born into a hunter family, this is an accurate description of their origin. -
Look into my eyes and see that I am not a monster. I just look like one. Gorgon Origins Gorgon's origins are documented in Greek and Roman Mythos. Gorgons were originally children of the god's Phorcys and Ceto. There were 3 of them, Stheno, Euryale and Medusa (Medusa being the most well known of them). Gorgons were born with human bodies and snake-like hair and were feared creatures for "turning people into stone" which was a myth created due to their scary looking nature. What is a Gorgon? Gorgon's are creatures with snakes for hair. They are able to entrance people and ge -
The crack of the twig, the feel of my muscles tensing as I get ready to run. The wind through my fur. I never feel this alive when I'm human. I am a werewolf. Werecreature Origins Some werecreatures believe themselves to have noble beginnings. Making pacts with witches or fae to save their people. However, werecreatures origins are less noble than that. Each race may have provided a different slight to a different mage, however, betrayal is the most common reason that each werecreature was changed. Unwittingly, they would procreate on the nights leading up to the full moon passing th -
The world around me hums with energy. With a life that few know how to tap into. I can feel it, even see it sometimes. On my whim I harness that energy, focus it, manipulate it. I can both create and destroy. I am a mage. Mage Origins Like with most origins of supernatural beings, the history of mages has faded into myths and legends. Their true origins are convoluted and misremembered but many still believe that it was a union between a Fae creature and humans that started magical bloodlines that began with Merlin. While the myth of the union is true, Merlin was not the first m -
Corinth is a major city that connects a lot of smaller townships on your way toward Anchorage, Alaska. A 2 hour drive into the city, Corinth is the go-to place for more uncommon chains, college and nightlife. Downtown consists of a lot of the historical locations of Corinth. While not much older than Dawnbreak its ease of access to anchorage has made it the bustling city it is now. Vitality is a Supernatural night club. While not exclusive to the creatures that we share our world with, it is predominantly filled with them. Additionally Vitality is a leading dealer and gatherer or -
Dawnbreak is an (fictional) old mining town the southern coast of Alaska, it spends 6 months in winter (October-April) and 3 months of 16+ daylight hours (May-July). All mining operations have been shut down as the mines are dangerous and do not have enough ore to be supported. The town has been a primarily supernatural town since the early nineteen hundreds when it was first settled. Downtown is remnants of the historical town of Dawnbreak and its roots. It houses a few newer shops, a few inherited shops and has some historical landmarks. The Wicca Hour - A New age shop -

The Alliance 1 is done finalizing their preparations to leave for Mars. Everything (and one) is packed and ready to go. They are circling the moon for their final time and will be accelerating to slingshot around the moon to head for Mars. But wait.... What's happening?

We here on Grim Horizons try to empower our users to create what they feel is necessary for their personal progress, development and characters as far as plotting goes. This is why we don't have an individual plotting forum on the site. Instead we encourage you to create your own self maintained plotting board and gallery where you can post and grow your characters. This is fortunately extremely easy to do: Go to the link "User Plotting" under forums in the navigation at the top. Click on the button "Create a Plotter" in the top right. A popup will come up -

To create a character you need to go to our Characters Page which has a list of all of the characters within the site. In the top right, click on "Create Character" and a little window will popup and give you what you can enter. All requi -
In this phase the Wanderer 1 members will be saying their goodbyes and being launched 5-10 at a time to the secure moon base where they will complete any final preparations to launch the Wanderer 1 toward Mars.

This is a long distance mission that will be taking the members of it to a completely different solar system looking for an existing world to colonize. Communication with Earth will gradually become non-existent and this ship will be on its own. -
The Alliance 1 is the start of the Mars mission. After many other missions have gone through this is the first to start the terraforming project to make Mars Green again. This particular mission will be repeated a few times on other vessels. -
