The NDA is a collection of creative works set in the shared setting of Harrowmoor.
As of right now the primary hub for the community and sharing works in the Discord server; however, there are plans to create something more external as the project progresses.
You will be exploring this world through your agent's exploits, cases and relationships. You may use case files, POI’s and settings from the world-building channels to flesh out your stories. Other people may also request to use your character in their content.
COMICS AND FICTION
CASE FILES AND RECORDS
As mentioned above, you might want to create supplementary records to go along with your comics or stories. Creators are welcome to share standalone records that their agent has been involved with or catalogued.
These records can be connected to your agent's personal story; it could be their favorite bar, or a witch they’ve befriended, or even an entity that has it out for them.
A NOTE ON TONE - This is optional but creatives are welcome to write these records in character to add flavor. Additionally, if they are a vital part of your agent's background, you may link them to their profile.
This is an option for someone who may not have the time to create an agent. You are welcome to design and create settings, entities and people of interest within this universe. These should be present-day people and locations that active agents can engage with.
The relevant channels for world building content are as follows:
Places-of-interest
People-of-interest
Case-files
This is for if you want to get into the weeds of this universe and help us develop a timeline, create myths and legends and delve into the history of this world.
This category of content is highly collaborative and relies on creatives paying close attention to pre-existing lore and working with other lore-makers.
If you decide you want to work on a key historic figure or event in history, join the Discord and let the mods know. It will be marked down as lore currently in the works.
CASE FILES AND RECORDS
These are the primary method of creating lore content and it is important you include dates in these contributions to aid in the future timeline! The canonical starting point of the modern setting is 2025, but you can absolutely create content set in the history of the NDA.
RECORDS AND LORE
If you have written a comic or story covering multiple case files, people or places of interest, you may post the collection together as a batch. You may place them in the Discords multiple relevant channels.
Once a year, the NDA will create a digital anthology to share with the public. This will contain a mixture of lore and agent content in the form of comics and stories. You can read more about it in the Anthology-Info and Anthology-Sign-ups channel within the Discord.
Yes.
Yes. It would be wonderful if you shared the context for your stories and some info about their world building project in the captions, but nothing is enforced. It's your work. Share it however you wish.
Yes.
No.
Yes if you want to explore present-day case files with the current roster of active agents, no if you want to tell lore-related or historic stories set in Harrowmoor.
The only limits is the rules and the genre of the setting. Members are welcome to creature powerful beings, set up dramatic events and create waves in this world- as long as it's backed up by their creative works and efforts. The more you collaborate and build upon one another's stories the more impactful they will become.
