≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

I write this for myself, fearing I am loosing my mind. ~ Dragonfly

It started a few weeks ago if I recall correctly, not long before the new year of twenty-nine.
I encountered something I can barely bare to talk about or dwell on for fear of it creeping in my mind.
The mist over took my perception of reality, causing me to worry if I'm sane.

I see horrors, things I know to not exist yet they still breath.
I hear the sound of a horrid chittering of a thousand creatures.
No I can not ever forget the beast that plagues my mind, it's faint pressure ever looming.
I've encountered it twice... yet I feel I feel like I've known it for so long.
I fear the woods yet... I still feel the alluring pull?
You must think me mad, to desire to go back out there if only to encounter the beast and understand why it exists.
How did it come to be?
There are things in this world that should not exist yet they do.
I'm sure you've heard tale of the Bogey man, Wendigos, Skinwalkers, and other such beasts of legend.
I did not take stock of these things till recently, now revering them with cautious respect as they are incredibly dangerous.
I'd recommend you do the same before you are caught in it's trap like I.
