Rock formations bowl the enormous expanse, the rocky spires striking out from the white, frozen ground. earth-colored and hearty vines snake up the terrain to create ecosystems you had never seen before. You shutter, your thick hides barely able to resist the piercing cold that this valley hardheartedly enforces. Yet, there is incessant life. Beasts roam, kicking up the compacted ground with claws, hooves and talons of every different shape and size. They are ferocious, new, powerful and exciting to behold. They are your prize for braving this new world, a continent that has never yet been seen or stricken by outsiders. Yet, here you are. You and your new team will strike this new ground.[/i][/color] [i][b][color=fdc68a]Your camp's scouts hav[/color][color=f9ad81]e said that there i[/color][color=f7976a]s more to discover.[/color][/b] [color=fff79a]That beasts and enviroments of all kinds have clawed their way into this new land. Steaming forests, Volcanic mountains, sweltering deserts; they are all inviting only the most worthy to become one in their ranks. You are sure you are worthy of such esteem.[/color][/i] [center][h3][i][b][color=fff79a]You are sur[/color][color=fdc68a]e you are worthy, t[/color][color=f9ad81]o become a mo[/color][color=f7976a]nster hunter![/color][/b][/i][/h3][/center] [center][color=fff79a]<>[/color][color=fdc68a]<>[/color][color=f9ad81]<>[/color][color=f7976a]<>[/color][/center] [center][img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/monsterhunter/images/8/87/Logo-MH3_Symbol.png/revision/latest?cb=20100101165247[/img][/center] [i][b][color=fdc68a]We[/color][color=f9ad81]lc[/color][color=f7976a]ome[/color][/b][color=fff79a], to the [u][b]Monster Hunters; A Terrible New World[/b][/u] interest check! The shifting of vast continents across the world has caused a fateful impact, the clashing of two landmasses that had once been polar opposites across the globe. You, found upon one these continents, have taken it upon yourself to explore a new, vast landscape amid seismic tremors and ferocious beasts to claim the trophies of monsters never seen before. You have assembled your team and charted the course, now all that is left to do is start your courageous journey.[/color][/i] [color=fff79a][i]This roleplay will be based on the Monster Hunter franchise, and will incorporate a few of the mechanics found in the actual game. You will play as a charismatic, newly trained monster hunter along with your fellow roleplayers. The RP will focus on group-tactics, survival, and of course; battling monsters! One of the key ideas in this roleplay is that the hunted monster's role will be passed among players, each individual being able to take on the role of a challenging, new beast. Whenever a hunt is completed, another person will take on the role of a monster they created, and another hunt will ensue in another, unique environment. If anybody feels as though they do not have the time or energy to create or play the monster when they are picked, [b]No Problem[/b]! I will fill any roles that the other player's are reluctant to fill.[/i][/color] [color=fff79a][i]On the flip side, Hunters will be able to progress their characters not through leveling, but instead item creation. Whenever a monster is slain, materials with different and sometimes useful properties will be assigned to hunters. Then, they will create whatever weapons or items they desire for their character from such materials. From axes to potions, swords to armor, anything can be created and used in a hunting battle. Weapons and items will be subjected to GM approval before use, however.[/i][/color] [color=fff79a][i]In this roleplay, I would ask that communication and mature attitudes be emphasized. This will be almost like a group arena scenario. Thus, we must all understand the thoughts, concerns, and ideas of others so we may create a colorful and flavorful landscape of monsters and hunters [u]together[/u]. Your input creates the great battles that will take place, so I want a group of leaders that will create a roleplaying experience that everyone enjoys. I will be opening this roleplay to a group of 5 or more other people, and basic roleplay rules apply (No double posting, be polite, etc.) I speculate the average post will be a little over a paragraph, perhaps more based on the writing styles of the people this RP receives. If you have any questions or are interested, feel free to say so! I'm looking forward to hunting monsters with you all![/i][/color] [center][color=fff79a]<>[/color][color=fdc68a]<>[/color][color=f9ad81]<>[/color][color=f7976a]<>[/color][/center] [center][h3][b][u][color=fdc68a]Sh[/color][color=f9ad81]ee[/color][color=f7976a]ts:[/color][/u][/b][/h3][/center] [hider=Character] [b]Name:[/b] [b]Appearance:[/b] [i](If you use a picture, please provide art only.)[/i] [b]Age:[/b] [b]Gender:[/b] [b]Gear:[/b] [i](Your starting gear is up to you, but please do not bring very high-power equipment as a newly-trained monster hunter.
