[center]Of Gods and Titans[/center]

We continue to grow and thrive. The Tower has been made whole again and we see old and new faces flood these halls. For once the stagnation has ended and the Tower breaths again. New Knights, New Friends, New Family. Though the threat of the Stygian Blade lingers and the Outer Door threatens we will push forward.

I call to those who would stand up and fight for a hard won peace and the serenity we have come to know and love.

Join me those who would stand up to hold onto our hard won happiness.

[b]Setting[/b]

Knighthood takes place in the city of Angel’s Landing. Millennium of war and peace have ground the city of Angel’s Landing to dust time and time again only to have the city to be rebuilt upon the old cities bones. Now it is home to towers that rise from the slum streets, where the higher you go the richer it gets...and the deeper into the skeleton of catacombs beneath the streets you go, the poorer and more dangerous it gets. 

The setting is Fantasy turns sci-fi. Galendar started out as a fantasy setting that has seen progress towards a higher tech future. This can be seen in the way that the line between technology and magic is not always clear. It can also be seen in the appearance of races that are traditionally seen in fantasy settings making use of 60th century top of the line tech in conjunction with their 5000 year old magic.

[b]Characters[/b]

As a result of the setting, characters should be a mesh of fantasy character concepts with a sci-fi spin, or a Sci-fi concept with a fantasy slant. (Ex: Knight who uses nanobot strengthened armor, a shield of kinetic force and a sword capable of changing form to a variety of other weapons. Or you could have a ship mechanic with a penchant for magical items used for repair on her high tech vehicles.) Please feel free to come at this from either angle but you should try to balance your character between having a sense of fantasy and an edge of the cyber. Treasure planet, Shadowrun, and The Asgard from Marvel's new Thor movies are good places to draw inspiration.

Characters will be new recruits or possibly veteran members of the Tower of Stars guild. Characters should possess some sort of tech, magic or combat expertise. They Tower of Stars takes a variety of individuals everything from ex soldiers, to hackers, to mages. The guild is not a military organization but one of its primary functions is combat. 

The Tower of Stars provides a variety of services for its contractors, some of the jobs are less than savory and it is rumored occasionally have included assassination. All of the jobs taken are approved by The Master of Stars and The Avatar of Storms himself, Christian Highfell. Christian allows many of the members of the Tower of Stars to take their own jobs usually with a cursory approval. 

Characters should have a strong backstory and ideas for their own jobs as well as a means for fitting into the overall plot line of The Tower of Stars battle for stability and survival in Galendar.
