“This is one of the most complicated roleplaying games I have ever encountered, so please don't confuse me by explaining it”
Frankie R, Describing "BHH"

BHH (officially short for Black Hole Hulk until 2015), also variously "The Game", "The RP" and "BHH Active", is a sci-fi roleplaying game founded by Kerry S (now Ciarraí S) and Kian-paul H in 2012. The game began as an active role-playing game, and has persisted in various forms until the present day, at various points having been two different active role-playing games, a book, an anime/manga project, a spoken roleplaying game and a Skype roleplaying game.

Today, the game is a Skype-based roleplay played by Ciarraí S, Caitlin P, Freddie H, Robert C and (nominally) Teoni W, and there are plans to create a book based on the events of the game. The series's various invarnations have left it with complicated sets of lore and charcaters, causing the BHH Wiki to be launched in 2016 (it was originally a side project, but it then became an autonomus project that would run alongside the main roleplaying.

History[edit | edit source]

pre-Ro[edit | edit source]

BHH was first created as an imaginative game, or "action roleplay", by Kerry S (now Ciarraí S) and Kian-paul H in 2012, with Kerry playing and Evon of the same name, and Kain playing "a Black Hole Hulk" (BHH), who was always reffered to as such. Much of the game's base lore was laid out as this point, with the role and status of Helltuna and Olympa being written in (although originally Olympa was going to be more powerful than Helltuna, assuming a role more like the Ravanesgatr). The basic relationship between the Evon and other species, and the abilities of a BHH, were also created.

In its original form, the game leaned heavially on inspiration form books and T.V shows, mostly Dr Who and Ravens's Gate, with much of the game's minor charcaters, etc. being injected from these sources. For example, the Evon were intitially granted the ability to "regenerate" in a Dr Who-like fashion, although now the evon have to instead use technology to do so.

"The Game"[edit | edit source]

In 2013, Caitlin P joined the game, representing the new charcter Ro E'lluna. The period after her join represented a so-called "golden era" for the game, with the characters being developed massively, as the game was played almost constantly for nearly two years. Many of the now-dated enimies of the game were created during this phase of the game, inluding Malignite Masters and Odin's Beard. This was also when the game developed its own distinct identity and feel, away from Dr Who, Raven's Gate and other sources.

Decline[edit | edit source]

By late 2014, the game was in decline, with the below words being spoken about its future (words which would later turn out to be completely wrong in the face of more acurate predictions of the future made by Kerry, now Ciarraí)

We look like huge babies or stupid people trying to play the Game, so I'm going to have to quit. It would never work as a roleplay or something, and besides, those are for nerds.
—Caitlin P

The game ceased being played, and by the next year had stopped. There was a single-short lived attempt by Ciarraí S and Michael H to revive the game, with the death of Ro and Gru, although it failed poorly enough that the events are no longer considered canon.

Book[edit | edit source]

Between 2014 and 2016, Ciarraí decided to try to enscribe the events of the previous games into a book. It was in this era that the series gained most of its present-day lore, including the modern relationship between nations, the Unlon, Dylon and Royal Front, more detail about the war between the Evon and Helltunans
