The attack was sudden, swift and brutal.

The Kingdom of Umbra, normally a peaceful land that spanned the north of the continent, suddenly invaded its neighbouring countries with overwhelming military force. One by one, the lands of Quies, Solum, Alacris and Gelum fell, despite their best efforts to negotiate peace and defend themselves. The once-kind king of Umbra declared himself emperor of the world, and an age of oppression and misery began.

It has only been eight short years since Umbra conquered the other kingdoms, and attempts to fight back still occur to this day. Several warriors remain at large, such as the mysterious "Princess", or the leader of the Quies-based rebel army, "Shu". Of course, no one person can stand up to the might of Umbra, and the Empire's generals have proven time and again that an army is unnecessary to aid them in raining absolute destruction and devastation upon their enemies, but some people are just too stubborn to let the tyrants win.

Are you strong enough to fight an empire?

----------------------------------

So yeah. Evil Empire is Evil. Go fix that.

Originally intended as a Final Fantasy RP, now made more generic for the sake of making it a tad more accessible. While FF classes are used as rough templates for characters' abilities, there isn't a strict Fighter/Black Mage/Monk/Thief system.

Eight years since the Empire established world control, things haven't quite been as cheery as they used to be. Blatant extortion and torture is a regular occurrence, racism runs rampant, and crime has never seen such a nurturing age. There are some rural locations that are relatively unaffected by the terrible situation, but that's not going to last much longer.

The setting is your generic fantasy land. Swords are the weapon of choice, elves, dwarves and animal-eared people aren't uncommon, and Slimes are the adventurer's first obstacle to traversing the world and/or fighting an empire. Firearms technically exist, but they're simply magical tools that fire not bullets, but the mage's concentrated mana.

So... yeah. Anyone interested?
