Silver Lilly Isle used to be quite a beautiful place. Named for the rare flower that blooms here, the isle is made mostly of marshland and lush forests. It was once home to powerful mages and wealthy lords, with a total population of about 4000. War claimed most of its soil, leaving the isle in ruins. Since then, use of the weave has been drastically limited.
Anjoel was among the elders in the mage community. He was a very powerful sorcerer, and like most with tainted hearts, he craved power. When war erupted, Anjoel was among the first to volunteer for the front lines. He had a vision for a new world, where mages ruled supreme. And would do whatever it took to see his vision, his dreams, to fruition. There were a few that followed him in his beliefs, among them was his most prized pupil, Jeltheor.
Swords clashed, power surged from the mages against those who opposed them. Soon the land was stained red, the color seeping almost into the waters that surrounded the island. The dark mages claimed defeat and what was left of them went into hiding. In fact, Most who were skilled within the weave disappeared. Their reputation was nearly destroyed and magic had become feared by all who lived here.
Bordering the northern edge are the Grey Scale Mountains, it's peaks nearly reaching the clouds. The dangerous terrain isn’t the only thing to ward off travelers. The Grey Dragons lurk within its caves, attacking any who dare climb the spires. There are only two left after war scorched the island, but they remain as deadly as ever. The mountain tops platea to what is known as ‘Death’s Peak’, the cliff slamming against the shore line as a rigid line between land and sea.
As the mountain melts into the land, trees spread their roots and branches, expanding across most of the isle. A vast mix of forest and marshland keep the mountains dangers from those of the island.
Waeldeshore is a port town, sitting at the southeast end of the island, and one of the few places that did not crumble within the war’s wake. Responsible for nearly all of traded goods on the island, Waeldeshore actually became quite wealthy in the years following. Lord-Marshal Weyland oversees the town and all of it’s inhabitants. The town makes up most of the island’s population, especially now after the war. Marked by its cobblestone streets, cluster of buildings, and boisterous crowds, it separates itself from the rest of the isle as a much more industrious setting.
Recently, strange things have been happening in town. People suddenly disappearing, demons popping up, extreme weather changes, etc. Some occurrences have been subtle, noticeable only to a few, while others raised concern of even the Lord-Marshal and his council who suspect it all to be the work of the powerful mage named Jeltheor. The Lord Marshal has ordered extra guards on duty, extra patrols throughout the town, even a curfew was issued, encouraging all to stay indoors after sundown. But there are whispers of another war erupting. Rumors of an army gathering, with one intention - to set Waeldeshore aflame.
In the name of self preservation or as an act to save the town, your character will battle the demons set free by Jeltheor. Can you save Waeldeshore? Can you stay alive?
Hello inhabitants of neverland, and thank you all for joining. This is my first ever rp to be created, so please bear with me. There are a couple of people contributing to the story, however I consider this a collaboration between all involved. I'm just getting out of a crazy schedule, was working 2 jobs, but now I'm down to 1, so I should be able to be here quite often. But if you cannot make regular posts for whatever reason, just pm me.
General Tips and Rules
1.) No power playing. Please don't make your character all powerful, or make them never get hit. You need to remember a tiny bit of fair realism. It's not fair or fun to play that way.
2.) No god modding. The playing of other people's characters is confusing and quite annoying, so don't do it. It's also obviously unfair. This is unless you have permission from that player (PM them), then it's obviously alright if you've asked permission when you want something to happen to them or want to control them in some way
3.) This is a free form roleplay, though I will be guiding the overall plot along with special events and so forth. Other than that the only moderator duties I have are approving characters/weapons/powers and responding to disciplinary complaints "He's spamming/flaming/god-modding/being an asshole/etc.", which hopefully, i won't have to. If you have any questions at all feel free to PM me, I always enjoy hearing what you all have to say.
Basically, don’t be a douche, try to write properly (use a word doc if necessary, thats what I do >.< ) and have fun. My aim is to create something amazing with you all that will continue on for a while.
Characters:
All general classes are welcome, including mages. Your character can be a native of the island or a traveler to the town. Mages are absolutely allowed, but understand that creating a mage will have consequences as natives are very weary of the craft. Your character can be of any alignment, but understand, that one way or another, you'll have to work together to stay alive. You can make up to 3 characters though it isn't necessary to have more than 1 if you're not comfortable with it. At the end of each post, please mention the characters in which the scene involves ([@mention]) And again. If you have any questions, just pm me :) happy rp'ing!
Please submit your character here first for approval. I will create the setting in my first post which I'll put up when we have enough characters to start.
