@Rayn, I've read your revised CS @Headphones, I like the humanity you gave the barbarians. Something that was going to be explained eventually in IC, is that the barbarians aren't totally in the wrong. The kingdoms have a long standing history of mistreating the Northmen, namely through conquest or forced relocation, as any time a resource is discovered in the north, one of the kingdoms expands their borders, and any clans in the way are 'dealt with'. So when Malfear fled to the North and the people there saw he could raise the dead, they revered him as a deity, and when he wanted their help to destroy the Kingdoms they were eager to oblige. @Everyone right now I have three possible groupings for your characters. I'll probably be placing Emil and Mia in Ferros, in the capital city en route to Valaria, since there's gold to be made there. Same with Ryan, who will be starting in the capital city and be given a reason to go to Valaria. The Second group will be Alaric, Kotori and Tegan who are serving the Tower. They'll be starting either in Oslo or in the Valean countryside, and will probably be initially dealing with The Order of the Rose. Of course since they all work with the Tower, Valeal will be the most dangerous place for them right now, haha. The Third group will be Genshal and Nyirr, both in Vespar. Because Valaria is such a war-torn country, there is a lot of lawlessness going on, which is a perfect feeding ground for feral mages who can thrive in a country without order. We can say Nyirr and his party (of Nitria, Vednusdi and Sir Lazerous) were sent to Valaria to hunt a feral mage and more or less have gotten themselves cornered into Vespar. Then of course Genshal is marching to Vespar. As the others submit their Character Sheets things will adjust accordingly. Of course when the IC begins, your characters 'plots' and missions will be far more fleshed out. I just wanted to give you guys an idea of who I plan on grouping you guys up with in the opening IC. Of course this isn't set in stone, and you absolutely will not be with the same group throughout the entirety of the RP. I've already discussed your characters with a few of you, but if any of you wish to discuss your characters ambitions or 'missions' with me shoot me a PM and we can further flesh things out. If at any time you want to do a GM collab with me, you're welcome to do so as well.
