[center] [u][i][b] MTG Sandbox Roleplay[/b][/i][/u][/center] Ravinca is one plane among many that swim through the multiverse. Its industrial inhabitants have eons ago assaulted every corner of the world with their constructions of buildings. Today it stands unyieldingly constant cityscape as far as one cares to travel. There are many civic centers on Ravinca but by far the biggest, best known, and whose name has become synonymous with the plane itself is Ravinca: City of Guild. The Ten Guilds of Ravinca are kept in check by an agreement known as the Guildpact. Without the Guildpact, conflict would be inevitable. Now, just outside of the City of Ravinca proper, there is a raised mesa only accessible by air or by a single bridge. Tribals of the Gruul Guild make ground assault unreasonable. On this mesa, there is a small marketplace and apartments. This mesa is not noteworthy except for a tavern called “The Mourning Mirrodin”. No citizen of Ravinca knows why the tavern owner has named his establishment has such an odd name. It takes a special kind of person to know what a Mirrodin is. Such a person is almost undoubtedly a Planeswalker. If you seek a Planeswalker on Ravinca that is not of the normal variety, one would be wise to speak with the patrons of “The Mourning Mirrodin”. ---------------------------------------- In this sandbox Rp, you will be a planeswalker, and hopefully a patron of “The Mourning Mirrodin”. Planeswalkers are beings that are able to travel between the various worlds of the multiverse. Not being bound to a single plane, most planeswalkers have the ability to learn more magic than any plane bound Archmage could ever dream of. Planeswalkers are rare. Only 1 in every million sentient beings possess the Spark needed to cross the void between worlds. Even fewer who have the Spark ever ignite it and become true Planeswalkers. The Act of planeswalking has been described many ways. Nissa of the Gatewatch once said something to the effect that planeswalking is like walking through a door way, but not everyone can see the doors. I personally like the idea it is more like stepping left. Stepping left and not going left. [u][i][b]Knowledge of MTG Lore or even how to play the Trading card game is not required!!![/b][/i][/u]. It is however helpful. Keep in mind that this is a medieval fantasy setting. This is a sandbox. If you want to do something or go somewhere, let’s go and do it. If y’all want to travel alone or with a group that is up to you. If you want to go seek an ancient relic or assault a castle, that is entirely up to you. As a GM, i will play the World and NPCs to make it interactive. ----------------------------------- [center][u][i][b]Social contract/rules[/b][/i][/u][/center] [hider=My Hider] [b]1.[/b] The Roleplayer’s guild is kind enough to let me host this rp and letting you be here as well. Thus, please respect all the guild rules. [b]2.[/b] Player and character knowledge are often different things. If issues come up between players because of characters, use the OOC or PM to resolved them. Using black mana does tend to create misunderstandings. [b]3.[/b] As GM, I have final say. If I get Co-GM, respect them as you would me. [b]4.[/b] I am going to try to get this roleplay last as long as possible. I hope all y’all will be here with me. I promise I do my best to always reply within a reasonable time frame or let all y’all know that I am going to be absent [b]5.[/b] This is a sandbox. If you want to do something or go somewhere, let’s go and do it. If y’all want to travel alone or with a group that is up to you. [b]6.[/b] “The Mourning Mirrodin” is a neutral territory for all planeswalkers. Do all your brawling off world or in the streets. Or Else, the Boros legion may break down the tavern doors and I would not want to pay to repair the doors. [b]7.[/b] I do seem to enjoy lists. [b]8.[/b] I do not wish to interfere the canon planeswalkers that have been created by Wizards of the Coast. I love them and they inspire me to do this rp, but They are busy people. They may come in for cameos should it come up [b]9.[/b] Death happens!!! The multiverse is a dangerous place. Planeswalkers tend to be able to run away from anything, but they eventually cannot escape death. If your character dies, make a new one (or get someone to reanimate you). No harm done. The “The Mourning Mirrodin” loves new patrons. [b]10.[/b] You may have as many characters as you feel you can give equal attention. I recommend around two. [b]11.[/b] Should you accept the rules and have read them put “Patron of the Mourning Mirrodin Establishment” in the Groups/factions section of the CS. [b]12.[/b] Have fun with this rp. It can be as casual or serious as you make it. [/hider] ---------------------------------- If you are interested, feel free to let me know below. And if you have time: [hider=Planeswalker Profile aka CS] [b]Name[/b]: (What is your name?) [b]Alias[/b]: (Planeswalkers are often known as by simple phrases that eventually fall into legends. Something like the Firebrand, the Living Guildpact, the Last Hope are only recent examples of this) [b]Age[/b]: (How old is your planeswalker?) [b]Gender[/b]: (Male and Female are the most common, but I imagine some species have more or fewer.) [b]Race[/b]: (Any race that is sentient and made of matter is able to have the chance to have the spark. You may use any known sentient race in the mtg canon or make your own. I prefer humanoid but I will not tell you No. Try to be able to fit within the tavern. Magical means is acceptable.) [b]Class[/b]: (Usually the second creature type on a card is a class. Classes like Soldier, Knight, wizard, archer, Shaman, ect. Not every planeswalker is a pure wizard casting spells left and right, just look at Garruk or Gideon. Please keep in mind that this multiverse is typically a fantasy setting.) [b]Appearance[/b]: (What do you look like? Long hair, no hair? Do you wear armor? What kind? What is your typical outfit? A picture is fine.) Magical Specialty: (What type of magic do you use? This will determine your main colors. For example, Chandra is a Pyromancer. She uses fire magic. This means She uses red mana almost exclusively as it is the best for fire magic. Sarkan Vol uses Dragon magic. This means he uses Primarily red, but he often uses green and black, and even recently blue mana.) [b]Primary Color[/b]: (If a planeswalker looks at you this will be the first mana they see on you. You can use all colors of magic, but this is your most used.) [b]Secondary/Tertiary colors[/b]: (If you have a second Color or even Third color put it here.) [b]Preferred creatures[/b]: (Summonings are common among magic users. If you summon what do you typically summon. For example, Liliana loves to raise the dead while Tesseret likes to summon metallic contraptions. Nissa loves summoning her elves and elementals.) [b]Favorite mechanic/keyword[/b]: (This is optional, but what mtg mechanic does your character use the most.) [b]Home plane[/b]: (This could be the world you were born on or the world you have taken up residence on. It could be one of the canon worlds or a world of your own design. If you create a world, please describe it here. I enjoy reading and would enjoy some knowledge should you chose to travel there again.) [b]History[/b]: (What is your story? Important points in your life? For the Spark to ignite, usually something epic or tragic must happen to the individual. For Gideon, It took the god of the Underworld to slaughter everyone around him to ignite his spark. I would love to know how you got your spark Awoken.) [b]Personality[/b]: [b]Groups/factions[/b]: (What groups are you apart of?) [b]Trinkets/ Inventory[/b]: (Are there any special items you carry with you? Mana generating rocks, weapons, adventuring materials.) [b]Theme Song[/b]: (Like When Darth Vader walks into the room to the Imperial March, What song signifies you? This is mainly for my enjoyment.) [b]Other[/b]: (Anything I forgot to add? Anything you feel like adding? Possible plot hooks?)
