[@ayzrules] "The Qin dynasty was the first dynasty of Imperial China, lasting from 221 to 206 BC. Named for its heartland of Qin, in modern-day Gansu and Shaanxi, the dynasty was formed after the conquest of six other states by the Qin state, and its founding emperor named Qin Shi Huang, the First Emperor of Qin. The strength of the Qin state was greatly increased by the "Legalist" reforms of Shang Yang in the fourth century BC, during the Warring States period. In the mid and late third century BC, the Qin accomplished a series of swift conquests, first ending the powerless Zhou dynasty, and eventually conquering the other six of the Seven Warring States to gain control over the whole of China. It is also the shortest dynasty in Chinese history, lasting only 15 years with two emperors." ~Source: [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qin_dynasty[/url] Qin wasn't the first dynasty, but he was the first ruler to take over all seven states and unite China. I was planning on setting the story during the "Warring States" era, which had seven different factions. Sorry about the confusion; I misspoke in my previous post. So my idea was we would start off with three to four characters, and each would choose one of the seven states to fight for - or you could be the leader of a bandit clan that has no allegiance to any state. Or you could choose to defend a village that chooses to be neutral in the war. Or you yourself could be neutral. But I think the conflict would be great for a kung-fu RP, plenty of action and tactics. :D And thanks for your interest! One or maybe two more people, then we'll start! This is gonna be so fun! :3
