a dark fantasy...anyone?

[freakynutjob]

I'm not usually one for too many rules...

[FEAR.net]

not to be the suck up, but Im fine with this. This is my first RP, so I need to kinda know what to do

[Bozi]

Wow....thats a long list of rules for a forum RP. And horrendously structured as well....I don't know how far this one'll go, man.....

like i said, its not SUPPOSED to last long.

I'm not usually one for too many rules...

me neither, but the outcome of this RP is quite important for me.

[HiddenTruth]

FEAR: Hate to tell you, but even the RPs back at TF.N weren't this strict. Even mine.

Bozi: Well, since you're relatively new in this area, maybe you should know: You have tipped the balance towards uniformity and lessened the 'creativity' aspect of Role-Playing. And how is this outcome important for you anyway? Hm? Well... I'll think about it; however, if I join, I figure I ought to be a normal character. However, I am only going to modify, not makeover, my character sheet for this RP. So don't expect an exact replica of your 'set' CS; I spent time developing that character.

freaky: Yes, he is, isn't he? I forgot he has a bad bout of stupidity in noncritical situations, as well; basically a Royal-blooded Elven/Human equivalent of a Romeo-esque pimp on crack, I dare say.

[freakynutjob]

Fear: All you really need to do is create a story around your character (as long as it fits in with the other characters)

Hidden: So, basically, he's a poncy half-wit you wouldn't trust with a burnt-out match, and wouldn't let within a hundred miles of your wife?

[Bozi]

Hidden : cant tell you why it is... but since you think it's TOO much stricted and not free.

And here's my first profile: Name: Aaron C. [Stands for Cliché, If you ask me. Ask him, however, and you get a stream of Elvish I can‘t quite write down properly…] Spiritseeker Age: 1020 [Elves live longer here, I dare say; He looks to be twenty-four] SKILLS: PUTT THREE OF THE LISTED SKILLS HERE! Species: Half-Mountain Elf, Half-Human [Elf rapes Human Princess, raise twins (Male & Female) together in a loving manner… somehow.] Class: NightRanger Description: [Disclaimer: I didn’t draw this Picture; Found it with Ask.com] Personality: Comical, Selfless, Patient, Romantic, Sturdy, Hardly Innocent, and very, very Horny. Strengths: Very agile, Graceful, Intelligent, Quick Learner, and Easily wins the lasses. Weaknesses: Trusts waaaay too easily, Easily distracted, Relies too much on own skill. Weapons/Equipment: 2X Serrated Short Swords, 1X Longbow, Extremely Thin Leather Clothing [With Padded Boots], A Great Many Arrows, and Various Vials Filled With Potions. Background: Aside from what’s been mentioned, theres… well, nothing interesting to mention, aside from the many women he’s pleasured. But that’s beside the point here. If there’s anything you really need to know, just ask.

i follow hidden's sheet, and remove all the rules. except the 3 skill thing... and the playable races (no naga, ghoul, and such.).

max players = 10 (includes me, who play the revenant.)

hows that?

edit: rules are changed, and many are removed. check them out.

edit : the dark humour and atmosphere still stands in the game.

- now, lets see how many people we can have...

[HiddenTruth]

freaky: Pretty much... And you remind me of Elinite... Hm... :eyebrows:

Bozi: Fine by me, I guess. I'll modify my sheet to include the 3 Skills. And, you may not know it, but I love Dark Fantasy. So I'm fine with the 'genre.'

[Elinite]

Hmm, mention me? And how so Hidden? Anyways! I'm in, I'll make my character tonight to me stabed and poked and made better tomorrow.

[HiddenTruth]

Elinite: Well... Whenever I'd describe someone/something/etc. you'd respond the way Freaky did:

So, basically, he's a poncy half-wit you wouldn't trust with a burnt-out match, and wouldn't let within a hundred miles of your wife?

He even started it with the same two words...

So, when's this starting?!

[Bozi]

when you people start completing your sheets.

[FEAR.net]

but i did modify my sheet...

[freakynutjob]

Hidden: It's just my wierd and wonderful style.

Bozi: There, I've edited my character. If you can't guess which faction he belongs to, you don't deserve to be running this.

[Bozi]

freaky : yes I know which faction he belongs too. and alchemy is added to skills.

[freakynutjob]

Oh, I'm happy now! thanks.

Edited Profile...

[Elinite]

Age: 590 [Per Hidden’s post, elf, not that old….]
Species: Half-Elf, Half-Human [Elf father, Human mother…... yep]
Class: Swordcaster
Skills: Sorcery, Enchantment, and Light weapons
Description: Errr….. imagine he has a sword at his side… I borrowed this from: http://www.wiggler.gr/wp-content/424px-Blood_elf2.jpg
I have the artistic talent of a donkey…. AND I HAVE OPPOSABLE THUMBS!

Personality: Silent, Withdrawn, little to no sense of humor, and rather easily angered.
Strengths: Agile, Intelligent, Well-honed sword fighting skills
Weaknesses: Easily distracted by the fairer sex, although he rarely shows it.
Weapons/Equipment: 1 Hand and a half swords (if you have never heard about it, READ ELDEST OR ERAGON, or just look it up), 1 Walking/Spellcasting Staff (will make more sense later on and become rather important to him, in the pic), Light Chest-plate armor (check out the drawing), A book of spells in a leather backpack for carrying food and other miscellaneous items.
Background: Born into a family of farmers, but left not long after becoming old enough to support himself, and went off to study arcane arts and swordcraft with an old friend of his father. After teacher died (just got old, no bloodyness involved), he went about enforcing the law on his own, and getting into a bit of trouble for it too.

And, if there were any doubts, he IS a guy.

Oh, and Freaky, you get two thumbs up on my part, anyone who is vaguely like me is okay in my book. (Not that my opinion matters more than a spit in the wind, unless you're downwind from meh... then watch out.)

[Bozi]

Freaky : Engineering, Trade, and ALCHEMY! your character is a Sapper. (make traps and explosive chemicals along with a good skill in trading.)


Hidden : Diplomacy, Blessing, and Dark Knowledge. you character is a shadow rogue.


FEAR : Skills: Alchemy, Magic (Necromancy), Poison Making. as you said, your character is a necromancer.


Elinite : Sorcery (Spell casting), Enchanting, and Light weapons. your character is a Warmage or a Swordcaster as you said.


now here is the story:

FEAR, you are assisting the brotherhoods' grand warlock in what he says "A very secret matter." you start in the brotherhoods' old and ruined keep where you have all gathered to do your grand warlocks' bidding. But... Nicholas is a bit...humanly, i preffer something like Negolas. but thats my decision.


Hidden and Freaky, i assume you two planned to be mercenaries or rogues...you two start in the silverwood forest just east of the ruined keep. arguing about todays' loot and your shares.

Elinite, you are a simple elven traveler, but have sensed a very powerfull and fell arcane source of magic. you are now searching the source (which is the ruined keep north of your posiion.)



here is the first part:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Location : Brotherhood's keep, somewhere inside Silverwood.

"Welcome back, Revenant!" He heard a chiling old voice. blinking a few times he tried to see who the owner of voice that was, he realised that he was lying on the ground... his muscles ached, and he could feel the cold weather cutting through his bones. what was going on?
"Is he the one we were talking about?" He heard another voice (this is you FEAR.) , but he wasn't sure what the people there were talking about. where was he?
"I'm sure." The old voice confirmed. He opened his eyes wide enough to have a glance ahead of him, he could see some red halos... his vision was so blurry.
"bring his clothes Necholas! I don't want to see him catch his death in this cold!!" the chilling voice said, it took him some time to realize that he is...naked. Which explained why the weather was so cold.

-------------
He yawned and leaned to the other side of the bed, feeling that he was asleep for a long time. something wet stroke his face rapidly, he blinked and opened his sleepy eyes only to see the black halo towards him. he tried to focus his vision, it was a bit hard after all those hours of sleeping. the black wolf licked his face again, the man nerrowed his eyes.
He pat the wolf gently, eyeing him from head to knees and fixing his eyes on the wooden dogtag around his black furry neck.

"Spirit"

Spirit playfully shook his tail around, gasping and starring at the man lying on the bed infront of it.
"Oh you are awake! finally!"

[Elinite]

Bozi:Okay, very cool, so uhh, could you give me like two paragraphs as to where I am currently and what the heck I am doing.

[Bozi]

http://www.nebdaar.com/wow/wallpaper...-1280x1024.jpg

imagine a forest like this. you are in the middle of it as well as Hidden and Freaky.


i think i better leave your "start" story to you man.

[Elinite]

Well, I guess I'll start it off then. And Bozi, thanks for giving me the setting, that's a WoW screen pic, isn't it?

Kree was wondering through the forest when he came upon a small clearing, with a little stream near the edge of it. "Well, well, well, perfect timing, so hard to find good campsites in these woods. I guess I had better set up here before it gets dark."

"Construir el campamento!" Kree shouts in an ancient tongue, and his camp, complete with fire, tent, and a boiling pot of tea, appears in the clearing. Sitting down on a stump near the fire, he pours a cup of tea, takes a few sips, then places it on the stump next to him. Getting up, he heads into the edge of the forest and notices a little burrow, with a little rabbits head sticking out. "Conejo, por favor." And with that, he had one dead rabbit, ready to cook and eat. As that roasted over the fire, Kree leans back and relaxes, letting his mind drift.

(Ancient tongue = spanish, and any of you other guys in the forest can feel free to "stumble upon" or "find" my camp and join up if you want, if not I'll move along eventualy.)
