There was a time when Auradon stood as a testament to everything good was supposed to represent. Heroes ruled, villains were afforded second chances, and the children of both were promised a future unburdened by the mistakes of their parents. It was a kingdom built upon the belief that everyone deserved their own happily ever after. Unfortunately, even the most beautiful fairy tales have a tendency to overlook the monsters waiting between their pages.

The Queen of Hearts did not come to Auradon seeking redemption. She came to conquer it.

What began as an ordinary orientation became the foundation of a new regime when the Queen seized control of the kingdom and dismantled everything its inhabitants had once known. Auradon was reborn as Hollow Bastion, a sprawling dystopian metropolis divided into four districts under the authority of the Crimson Order. Technology and tyranny have become nearly indistinguishable beneath the watchful eye of Redline OS, while the Queen's enforcers ensure that loyalty is rewarded and dissent is dealt with accordingly.

Yet the Crown's authority is neither absolute nor uncontested. The Right Side Up, a resistance determined to reclaim the kingdom, continues to operate within the shadows, while those living along the Fringe have learned that survival sometimes demands allegiance to no one but themselves. Beyond the city, forgotten realms and ancient powers threaten to complicate a conflict that has already rewritten the destinies of heroes and villains alike.

In Hollow Bastion, bloodlines may open doors, but they offer little protection from the consequences of ambition. A princess might become a revolutionary, a villain might discover something worth protecting, and the most unassuming citizen might possess the means to bring an entire kingdom to its knees. There are no guarantees that good will triumph, that evil will prevail, or that the characters who begin this story will recognize themselves by its conclusion.

That part is up to you.

AURADON IS GONE.

In its place stands Hollow Bastion, a kingdom rebuilt beneath the Queen of Hearts and divided into four districts ruled by villains, royals, soldiers, and those willing to serve the Crown.

Lantern drones watch from above. Redline tracks the population. The Mortal Coil Grid turns rebellion into spectacle. And beneath it all, Master Control is still listening.

But Hollow Bastion is not as obedient as it appears.

The Right Side Up fights to reclaim what was stolen. The Fringe survives beyond the Crown’s reach. Pirates, dragon riders, Merlinians, princesses, villains, rebels, experiments, and descendants are all deciding what comes next.

RED OVERRIDE is a 21+ Disney Descendants AU and crossover fantasy RPG featuring dark fantasy, dystopian sci-fi, rebellion, political intrigue, found family, romance, and character-driven plotting.

The kingdom has already fallen.

What comes next is up to you.

In the year 2200, the former United States is ruled by a strict government called The Trust.

The Trust has been in power for almost two centuries, and on the surface, things look great--there is almost no poverty, everyone has a job and a home, and medical advances have conquered many of the worst diseases. Green technology is booming and emissions are at an all-time low.

But underneath that perfect veneer is a dark truth: women are second-class citizens, a whole slew of things could get you put on a watch list or worse, and the Trust controls every aspect of their citizens’ lives: from where they work, to what they drive, to who they marry and how many children they have.

Will you fight them or favor them?
