Welcome to a roleplay of Kings and Queens, emissaries and diplomats, wars and destruction, and one Emperator.


Welcome to the world of Erde. A medieval period fantasy world in which magic exist but is shunned and even persecuted, where monsters exist but are so rarely seen they have gone to myth. A world of an uneasy peace between the realms of Men. A hostile ceasefire between Men and Dwarf and an open guerrilla between the Elves and anyone else. Raids from the Northern Satyr while the last of the woodland Satyr are being hunted down. A world of the Anderian League, who’s Emperator just died…

I plan on making this a roleplay in which each of the players is a representative of one of the provinces within the Anderian League. They all have been called to the Capitol in the wake of the Emperators death by decree of the twelve-year-old successor to be. In the meanwhile his uncle, the former Emperator’s brother is taking the Kings place as head of the ruling council of three (The Leader of the Church, The Protector of the realm and thus now Regent) until the boy comes of age.

For that reason I will leave big parts of the ‘lore’ unfilled so that every player can freely create his own region. After some show of interest I’ll get a character and nation sheet up.
For now: Some ‘fictions’ about our world.















As for our major players:

The Emperator-in-wait: Alexander Vandenbrecht.
A boy of twelve. Already the strong noble features of the line of Emperators can be seen on his face. A face that looks good on coins. He also rumoured to be an excellent duellist for his age and quite a headstrong boy.
Regent of the League: Derk Vandenbrecht, brother of the former Emperator, Uncle to the one in wait.
Derk was always close to his brother and served as one of his closest advisers for many years. He served as protector of the realm in his prime. That time has given him the reputation of a ruthless pragmatist who gets a job done no matter the costs. Others depict him as ruthless and cruel, but few doubt his efficiency of dealing with the revolts of his time and the threats of the Satyr or Tengi. Since his time as protector he has grown fat and complacent, but many say he still has his edge when it comes to politics.

Head of the Church: Aranyr the Third.
Named after Aranyr the first, his predecessor that converted much of the Anderanian League to Chamonism a good 4 generations ago through the use of the church militia: The Brothers of the Pure Blood. He is a dogmatist, that some say is a pawn of the Roccan Empire. Those who met him however would hardly describe him as anyone’s pawn. He is unbendable in his faith, Loathes non-humans and ever preaches war against the non-believers. Now he is pressing for an expansion of the Brothers of the Pure Blood. They have always been recruited only from the select few families that usually deliver priests but Aranyr wants to expand this small temple guard.

The Protector of the Realm: Adelmar Thrant
Hailing from the family that often provide the commander of the city watch of the capitol Adelmar has moved from that position to that of Protector after the Red insurrection (a revolt by a chamonistic sect that laid waste to several non-human districts and made for the capitol thereafter). He is often acclaimed as an honourable man who, while leading being the supreme stratagist of the League has a preference for non-violent solutions. A virtue to many that some have used to stress a rumor that he is more into the love of other men rather than women.

More characters will be introduced as the game progresses, most importantly YOURS!
But before we get to that, lets check if there is some interest. I hope that if you have read this far you are actually interested and if so, let me know. If not let me know as well!

I'll bump it once! And if you'd also be so kind as to what is putting you off about this roleplay? It is a learning process for me as well, so feel free to give some criticism!

(is it too much info?)

I wouldn't know why people aren't interested. It looks very interesting to me, and if you would still want to run it, I would certainly make a character to join in.
