Rakked’s Darkest Dungeon Fanfiction

I’ve gotten really into Darkest Dungeon, and I’ve been enjoying myself writing some fanfiction about it, which I haven’t done in a long time. It’s nice to stretch those writing muscles again a little, and I’ve written enough of these that I want to post an index in case this keeps up.

The pious Vestal, Junia, from Darkest Dungeon has a unique item called the “Salacious Diary.” I’ve written a few spicy-but-SFW entries from that diary about her fellow adventurers.

Then there’s my Darkest Dungeon Diaries/Crimson Court Correspondences project, wherein I played through Darkest Dungeon writing an in-character diary entry from various perspectives for each in-game week. After I completed the main game, I added Crimson Court, Shieldbreaker, and a number of skins and modded classes to the mix. As of this posting, I’ve finished Crimson Court and have no current plans to take on Color of Madness … yet! started Color of Madness!

The pious Vestal, Junia, from Darkest Dungeon has a unique item called the “Salacious Diary.” As part of another user’s project on the Darkest Dungeon Reddit, I’ve written a few spicy-but-SFW entries from that diary about her fellow adventurers. It’s possible there will be more but I have no immediate plans.



Vestal’s Salacious Diary Entries:

The Abomination: the Sin of Onan.

The Man-at-Arms: Sometimes “Daddy” Just Slips Out.

The Leper: the Coping Technique Backfires.

Bone Captain: Under Pressure

The Crusader: Reynauld and the Diary



Fanart-inspired snippet: Breaking it Down with Audrey and Dismas

My recently-completed ongoing Diaries project is a campaign where I wrote one diary entry per in-game week from various characters. These aren’t spicy like the Salacious Diary entries; it’s just about a paragraph’s worth of in-character writing every week from a growing stable of alternating characters.



The characters with the default class names (Dismas, Reynauld, and Baldwin) have the canon backstories as given in the comics. Characters with randomly-generated names had broad-strokes similar backstories that I sometimes expanded on.
