River’s Crossing is not a normal city. A college town located in southern Virginia, it was nothing special until Magic was discovered here 30 years ago. Deep underground lies a magical ecosystem inhabited by strange creatures and where the laws of physics don’t seem to behave properly. River’s Crossing is home to one of the few access points from the surface, or Vents as they are colloquially called, and the escaping magical energy has changed the world forever.

This is the Worst Idea You’ve Ever Had! follows a group of young people living in River’s Crossing as they deal with every day life and the occasional monster.
