Okay, so I'm not going to go into great detail here as you should already be familiar with standard rules and decency:
Respect each-other both in the IC and OOC. Banter is fine, but if you start to get bitchy so will I! You're characters don't have to like each other either, but don't let OOC things interfere with the plots and always consult others before posting about their characters or their devices.
For now just one character. I'm fairly liberal in regards to race, just no Darkspawn (yet) and keep it cannon. You want to be a fairly talented fighter/mage? Fine, it makes sense if you're getting chosen to join the wardens but don't go over board; I'd rather you start off as someone with potential and grow over the rp.
It's an RP so we're going to be bending timelines and plots, but please try to keep things as cannon as possible. I will reward you with 'Fat Boy Points' if you are to cleverly work your own plots into the cannon and impress me.
No killing characters without permission. This includes your characters, other player's characters, and NPCs that are being used frequently by other players. Of course feel free to make dozens of your own NPCs to kill at your hearts content.
Everyone makes grammar mistakes here and there, so I'm not expecting you all to write perfectly. However, expect to be picked up on if you get a bit slack. Posts should be strictly in the past tense (unless there's a rare first-person flashback or something). I'm also a fan of splitting paragraphs when different people speak. If grammar is consistently awful to the point that I can no longer be bothered to read it then I will be harsh and kick you out of the RP.
AND LASTLY! ACTIVITY! For you to remain in this RP you must post at least once a week in the IC, or a couple of times in the OOC to explain why you can't post. You get one second chance then you're out. I do however understand that life and external factors can keep you away easily, so if you get booted but want to rejoin then please do message me. Similarly if you know you're going to be away then please just tell us and there shouldn't be a problem. [/hider]

[Hider=Setting]
We begin the story in the land of Ferelden one year before the Battle of Ostagar and the events of Dragon Age: Origins. There has been an increase in Darkspawn activity in the Deep Roads and there have been more and more reports of Darkspawn on the surface. Whilst no one is keen to jump to conclusions, some are beginning to spread rumours of a Blight. Asides from this there are many odd things happening throughout the land including the reemergence of dragons, a surge in blood magic activity, strange sightings off the eastern coast, and serious crime problems.[/hider]
[Hider=Status of the Wardens]
As things stand there are only a small group of Wardens in Ferelden led by the Warden-Commander Duncan. They have no real base save for their compound in Denerim and many think they are no longer needed. Now as people have begun to whisper of a Blight the Wardens now look to increase their numbers, gather resources, and convince people to prepare for war. There are other Wardens outside of Ferelden who are not too far but they have their own problems and it is still unclear whether or not a Blight is actually looming.[/hider]
Players will begin scattered throughout Ferelden and will initially be doing their own thing, following their own plots and so forth. As things progress however they will be recruited by the GM's character and help the Grey Wardens. They might not necessarily go through the joining ritual as players will have to prove themselves strong enough first; because of the high mortality rate I can't just let everyone join (it does provide players with a chance to kill their characters and make another though). The RP will have a few major plots put in play by the GM but for the most part players will have a voice in what they do. There will be time-skips here and there simply because the time it's supposed to take to travel from one location to another, that is of course unless players object.
The long term goal for this RP is for the Wardens to prepare for and fight in the Battle of Ostagar. This will mark the end of the RP but necessarily the end of your characters (depending on the success of the RP I already have sequel ideas in mind).
Please keep things both as cannon and realistic as possible. Good sites to look at include the Bioware site, the Dragon Age site and the Dragon Age Wikia. For now players may only have one character, but may make/use NPCs.
