The Reality
Dark Whispers is a Role Playing Game that is played via e-mail. It is based on no ONE idea in particular. Think of every supernatural book you ever read, every super-mutant comic you've ever devoured, every fantastical movie you've loved. The characters and ideas that these invoke in you... That's Dark Whispers.
The Society
Dark Whispers operates just below the surface of the world as we know it. It is believed to have existed since the dawn of time, though its full history is known to no man or beast alive. If the dead know the story, they are keeping it to themselves.
The Legalities
This is not real. (DUH, people.) The idea of Dark Whispers belongs to the individuals who played Aldrich Bramwell and Biana Nen. It was created in the fall of 2000, and game play kicked off in January, 2001. After a hiatus in 2004, it returned briefly in the fall of 2005 before its termination. The game has since evolved from its origins, and reopens again in its new format in 2007.
