[u][b]Plague of the North[/b][/u]

[i]The Northern Lands are harsh and unforgiving at the best of times, 
but now an evil seeps down from the uncharted lands threatening to engulf all that stand in its way. 
The evil of which I speak? [color=ed1c24][b]The Black Blood Plague.[/b][/color]
It corrupts the minds of men and women, adults and children, 
dogs and beasts, and turns them into mindless cannibals. 
It is up to you to investigate this scourge, 
and bring an end to it before it takes everyone you love.[/i][/centre]

[b][u]The Setting:[/u][/b]
This RP is set in the fictional fantasy world of Olympus. Set in it’s Northern Lands (as it is referred to in the South), the Celtobar Peninsular has become a rallying point for the Kingdom of Vasili and refugees from the various tribes along its Northern borders. The threat is a magical plague that is quickly moving south and has been called ‘The Black Blood’ because of the physical effect is has on its victims. Those that are infected become highly aggressive, mindless, cannibalistic, and their blood thickens and turns black. So far there has been no cure, but priests seem to be confident that this is the result of dark magic, not nature. The only hope it would seem, would be to find the source and destroy it. Unfortunately the lands to the far North are inhospitable and full of dark creatures, and even the tribes try to stay as southward as they can. 

Now the main cities of Vasili are becoming full of hatred, as refugees clog the streets and increase the chance of the plague breaching the walls. Without the farms being worked, food stores are also declining at a fast rate. This has only deepened existing resentment however, for the Kingdom has fought the tribes for centuries and there is no shortage of bad blood. Even those wanting to flee south are finding it hard, for across the channel is the Kingdom of Dawn, who are currently at war with the Kingdom of Vasili; any ships attempting to cross have been sought out and either sunk or burned. 

Desperate, King Barius of House Vasili has withdrawn his troops from the North and has doubled his effort to take the White Coast and expand into the territory of Dawn. But he knows that this is not enough, and now he has trusted generals and advisors in each city to draw together teams of investigators to uncover the truth behind the plague. These investigators, known as the Consano, are being told to meet at a town named The Cross Roads. Here there is also an opportunity for others to join the group, but only if Sir Chester and Lady Buxton think they are worthy.

[b][u]Some Handy Key Points [i](maybe)[/i]:[/u][/b]
[list]
[*]There is magic, but it's uncommon
[*]The plague has no cure
[*]Characters must bring something to the team, but that doesn't mean I want them to be OP
[*]Knights are very rare
[*]Travelling is, unfortunately, a thing in this RP
[*]Technology and culture wise, this is much like the middle ages
[*]No guns or even gunpowder
[*]This could be described as 'low-advanced' purely because I myself am a bit shit. But I like reading other people's great quality work, so I expect more from you than myself :P

[b]TL;DR - Medieval fantasy world were there's a magical zombie(-esque) plague sweeping south. Players will be adventurers investigating the plague.
