NIGHT DEVOURS ALL -- applications [wip]

INTRO;;

Night was once a peaceful thing, a beauty to any who laid eyes upon it. Stars would glimmer brightly in the sky, dancing in the endless abyss that is space. The moon would bathe everything in cold light, only to be washed away by the sun's warmth the next morning. But the sun no longer exists; it has died, much to the surprise of the humans, who also met their fate under a thousand stars. Our world has become a realm of perpetual darkness; the night is a never-ending beast that feeds relentlessly on anything it can get its shadowy jaws around. This, more often than not, means us, the few dogs who have managed to survive in this hell. But night isn't the only terror we must face; living in eternal darkness can do horrible things to an animal's mind, and even worse things to its body. The term "nocturnal" takes on a whole other meaning, and "fear" really is the stuff of nightmares. Where most creatures rotted and died, others simply... evolved into stronger, quicker, and more deadly versions of themselves. Unfortunately, this includes dogs, as well. We may have managed to survive here, but not all of us made it through the torment that a sunless world brings with it. We, those who didn't rot away into something terrible, merely exist here... and we are not welcome.

Beware the dark.

PLOT;;

The year is 2025. The sun no longer hangs in the sky, and what life it gave, has all but perished. Mankind is gone, our friends, family, and the life we knew, too, have been devoured by shadows. Here, night reigns supreme. Monsters, terrors lurking in the darkness, are very real. Everything here is hungry for flesh, including the flora. Bio-luminescent vegetation is a common sight; ordinary plants have wilted and died without the sun to help them thrive. This includes the trees, too. What life isn't carnivorous and bloodthirsty, is almost beautiful in a twisted way. Water is often toxic, and must be examined carefully to prevent death. In short... this place is a death trap, intent on feasting upon your bones.

This story will follow a group of dogs ranging from all shapes and sizes, who must make a life for themselves in this post-apocalyptic world, or die trying. Will they do more than merely exist here, or will they become something far worse? Perhaps we will find out. Just don't forget who rules this place.

It might just be the last thing you do.
