Valravyn: The Amazing Goth Band Simulator

You've just been yanked out of your nerdy, comfortable early 2000s teen lifestyle and pitched into a whole new world. Thanks to a dear friend's lies, you landed a guest role with a up-and-coming darkwave band. No one saw you on that stage - they saw "Lord Valravyn," the pseudonymous golden-eyed goth god from parts unknown.

Unfortunately, Lord Valravyn has become weirdly popular - popular enough to get his own band and a year's worth of upcoming shows. Like it or not, you're in charge now.

Grow your band's profile while keeping your identity a secret - or let it slip to a few people and see what happens. Take a walk on the dark side with your subculture friends, or retreat into the safety of geekdom. Steward the local gothic community to new heights, or let them twist while you pursue your own ends. Get the girl, or make her despise you for giggles. It's all up to you.

Valravyn: The Amazing Goth Band Simulator is an interactive story with life sim elements, based on the novel Valravyn. Licensed under Created Commons, CC BY-NC-SA.
