Intro


(note this rp is based off of the gba game of Summonnight. No knowledge of the game is needed to rp this successfully)

The island of Priam is a crescent shaped slab of rock off the coast of Senefer, a vast continent of forest, desert, and tundric terrain. Your character has come to (or has always) lived here, in the village of Degar. Where many flock from all over to learn the craft of weapon forging and to strengthen their skills. The profession of beast taming is to not only forge weapons but use them to protect the defenseless from the wild summon beasts surrounding sanctuaries (cities and places under protection) alongside their Guardian Beast. The monsters surrounding the cities have begun to show signs of being tainted- their violence increases by the day. It has been rumored that their behavior is linked to a cult that lives in the wild- placing the beasts under a spell to enrage them so they can push their own agenda.

The force up against this cult is the Order of beast tamers known across Senefer as the Guild. They are the elite- the strongest in all of the land. They are legends in their own right. The capital is their home. All young apprentice tamers revere their names; Andras of Storms along with his Griffin beast is the Knight of Thunder, Talitha of the Abyss and her oni guardian claim Knight of Fire, Brogan the Bad along with his sharktoothed tiger beast is the Knight of Wind, Gyuri is the Knight of water alongside his serpent beast.

And so the goal of all beast tamers is to train and join the forces that the Order leads- to defend Senefer from all evil.

Premise/expectations


A simple rp where the characters have their own creature and have the ability to tame other monsters. The players will be part of a notorious guild, but will start off in one of the smaller, lesser known branches. Originally tasked with creature population control and keeping them off of farmland, the guild has increasingly encountered the same problem. Tainted monsters have begun appearing, spreading disease that has begun to kill the landscape. The source of the diseased creatures must be found and stopped, to restore balance to the land.

**Roles have to be filled for this roleplay. Meaning your starting creature will be given to you by me based on the role you choose below. The RP starts after I assign you your creature. You can either have your character be a newly joined Guild member or a current member.

This role-play will consist of the characters traveling as a group all over the island, killing tainted monsters, finding treasures, learning about the world around them, crafting weapons, completing quests and, simply put, becoming legends.

Beast Tamers
Tamers are born, not made. At a certain age (the average is between 18 and 23, but beasts have appeared as late as into someones 30s) their Guardian Beast will be summoned. These intelligent creatures are bound to their tamer for life. Since there are so few tamers on the island and so many monsters, it is required by law that all gifted join the Guild. Life in the Guild, until recently, is straightforward; protect people from monsters and protect monsters from people. Keep the balance and all will be well.

Roles


TAKENThe Cavalier (a fighting class. The Cavalier will have a mount/beast they can ride)by Heyitsjiwon

TAKENThe Theurgist (a magic class. The Theurgist’s beast will lend their power to their tamer in battle) for Legion02

The Sentinel (a fighting class, focus: defense. The Sentinel’s beast will be a shield to their tamer in battle)

The Illusionist (a magic class, focus: defense. The Illusionist has no attack output, so they and their beast aim to distract and defend rather than attack)

The Rogue (a stealth class. The Rogue’s beast aids them in keeping out of sight)

TAKEN The Cleric (the healer. Their beast will have some healing ability.) for iHxzardx

The Ranger (like the rogue but less focused on stealth and more on speed. Their beast, like them, will be a wild card)





Rules and Requirements

1. Follow Guild rules
1.5 at least 2 paragraphs per post.
2. Don't machine gun the IC. Meaning don't just rp with one other person for pages and pages without waiting for others to post. Be patient.
3 If you plan on leaving post in OOC how long you will be gone (or pm me) so i don't kill off your character for being inactive for so long.
4. I don't tolerate OOC fights. I'll kill your character and kick you out of the roleplay if you're being an asshole.
5. Anything over PG13 must be taken to PM.
6. by doing this rp you accept the fact that your character may die, be disfigured, be tainted, or any other type of malady I come up with for the sake of an interesting rp.
7. Same goes for your Guardian beasts.

I thought it would be cool to have some kind of father/mother figure in the Guild that Samuel could look up to. I named them his 'mentor' so either someone else wanting to join could make a character being this 'mentor' or maybe @Snarl could NPC them.

I'm guessing it's the Honor system. No, I don't think my guy is going to be very much liked by the NPCs but I imagine him as being incredibly effective & powerful thus hard to ignore on actual missions.

Oh and just so this doesn't appear as criticism, I have absolutely no problem with the Honor system. Quite the opposite actually!

@HeyitsjiwonAccepted! Incredible profile, he's got a lot to offer the Guild and I can't wait to see how he fairs in the rp c:

@Legion02You have an extra point in your stats! Once thats fixed, he's accepted. Quick note though- your basic weapon is pretty powerful. You can keep it, so long as you're okay with receiving a much simpler and weaker weapon along with your Guardian Beast.

@Snarl I got 1 extra in health, 5 extra in strength and 4 in intelligence. Together that makes 10. I thought we could freely give those to the stats? Did I make a mistake somewhere?

I do have one question about the secondary and primary weapon. I'm not entirely sure here. I'd imagine the Theurgist is somewhat of an actual magician class channeling the energy of his guardian beast into ranged spells. If this is the case, then would it be possible that the secondary and primary weapons directly influence the power of these spells? If so, I'll tone down my secondary weapon. In fact, I might still do it. But I'm just curious how my character would function with his Guardian. If I'm entirely wrong then please say so and I'll adapt his weapon according. But rest assured that I'll tone down the secondary weapon.

So just to get this right, Honor (and Dishonor) is gathered not during interaction with NPCs but by fulfilling certain objectives (or not fulfilling them) during a mission, task or quest? (not that it will change my Charisma stat)
