A text-forward fantasy RPG in active development

OATHWAKE

The Long Becoming

A world of rooms, roads, oaths, wounds, weapons, memory, and consequence. Your character does not simply level up. They become.

What is Oathwake?

A text-forward RPG about identity and consequence.

Rooms That Matter

Explore through rooms, exits, descriptions, signals, and local context. Place is not just scenery. It is structure, history, danger, and opportunity.

Identity-Driven Progression

Class, skill, weapon, oath, wound, choice, and memory all shape what your character is becoming over time.

Consequential Combat

Combat is built around weapons, armor, protection, wounds, posture, timing, and the identity of the fighter using them.

The World

Welcome to Anachron.

At the crossings of history, oath, ruin, and becoming, the world remembers more than it explains.

Oathwake begins near roads, rivers, old halls, working towns, dangerous wilderness, and the quiet places where choices start to matter.

First Threshold

Threadmark

A river-crossing town where labor, rumor, faith, fear, trade, and old promises move through the same muddy roads.
