...nature has so created men that they are able to desire everything but are not able to attain everything...
- Machiavelli




Howdy!

The basic idea here is simple: an NRP set in a unique fantasy world, focused on a single, large, strategically crucial isthmus that is home to several powerful city-states. Players would create these city states and their territories, on the verge of a major empire (NPC or player character) preparing to invade and conquer the isthmus. The focus would be on character interaction, intrigue, war, and good story telling, and collaborative world building- my hope is that all players will take part in designing the wider setting in which our cities exist.

The setting would take what I call the Tolkien/Martin approach to magic. Magic is real, mysterious, and powerful, but for the most part takes place 'off-screen', and is for aesthetic purposes somewhat subdued or indirect (eg- no undead armies or mages throwing fireballs around). Likewise, while multiple sentient species will inhabit this world, I would like to stay away from the elf/dwarf/gnome/orc/goblin mainstays of D+D. Players would be encouraged to give the traditional fantasy races a unique twist, or better yet invent their own! Our tech level would be around that of the 30 Years War, but of course factoring in the existence of magic and fantasy beasts.

Hope this whets you're interest! I look forward to RPing with you!

OOC up: roleplayerguild.com/topics/86089-the-s..

As always, I added a completely unnecessary level of complexity to this, so please feel free to ask any questions you have.

I'd be interested, if you're up for having a new guy to this site on board.
