Alma, the continent of man. For hundreds of years, war has raged between three nations. While their war had raged, the ancients had returned. Beasts of yore, wielding artifacts of untold might. The three nations had managed to band together to repel the foreign beasts. While many of the ancient still exist today, they are no longer a threat to the nations that had once repelled them. The defeat of the ancients resulting in three things: the proliferation of ancient treasures that were empowered, an era of peace between the three nations, and the discovery of ancient dungeons - fortresses of magic that constantly shifted and changed. The peace had allowed for man to realize that in their years of fighting, they had neglected to explore and discover their own home.

Thus began the golden age of adventuring.

With the three nations allied, man took to both the wilds and ancient dungeons. Eventually, the number adventurers began to soar to record amounts. Lands were being pillaged for loot, highwaymen ambushed hard workers, and the seemingly infinite amount of adventurers were impossible to control. A solution was created: the Adventurer Guild. They acted as leadership for the rowdy adventurers and punished criminal activity while working to build a sustainable environment where adventurers could always find something new. They seemed to solve everything. Well, everything except for the highwaymen.

Due to Alma's size, different chapters of Adventuring Guilds fill each city. However, there is one peculiar chapter located in the capital city of Rhode. With a name that reverberates around Alma, the Iron Rose Adventurer's Guild is the most well-known guild. Mostly because of their ever-absent leader whose exploits stretch the boundaries of mankind's borders.

Almanac:







Here we go - an adventuring and questing RP based on all of those isekai manga and anime. Except, you know, without the entire isekai bit.

Simply put, this RP is about light-hearted adventure and character growth. I wouldn't call the direction that I'm trying to go with this as a sandbox. I would call it open-ended. You, as a player, will be subtly nudged in the direction of a story while you can do anything you want along the way. If you can't decide on what you want to do or get stuck, you could always take a mission from the board. And who knows, maybe those missions could evolve into something great. You can get sweet loot along the way, too.

Just gauging interest to see if I should go VERY fast Silver writing at incredible hihg speed.

I am interested in something like this. I am wondering about the availability of magic in your world. Is it a high magic or low magic world.

Sounds fun. I would like to join. I generally play a warrior type. Either a 'heavy fighter' or a 'light fighter' (archer type).

Alright, answer time.

@MarsAdept@Hawlin

Magic is between high and low fantasy, more towards high. Think of Dark Souls as the baseline for magic. The most common magic are sorceries, miracles, and -mancies. Rather, magic is unlimited. Mana, ki, any sort of magical force is one in the same. Different paths to one thing: changing reality. A sorcerer would study magic, and as a result, their spells are orderly. Clerics and priests pray to the gods for power, and as a result, they pray for magic to happen. -mancies usually come from heart and are instinctual, so they tend to head more for chaotic blasts of hell-yeah.

But this doesn't mean you have to stick with one of those three. You could write up a necromancer. You'd probably be hated for desecration, but that's unrelated. Simply put, the possibilities with magic are endless. New spells are created every day, but for the vast majority of commoners, magic is something that they almost never see. For adventurers, it's a common thing.


For the races, I'll just say that you can go for it. All of the human-like races (elves or dwarves) existed before the three nations began to fight each other, but once war broke out, they migrated around and just became part of mankind. Most elves and dwarves today have mostly human blood, but still go by elf and dwarf because of culture. Good riddance, because ancient elves and dwarves looked disgusting.

There also exist beastmen. They come from the eastern island of Adagari and have hundreds of subspecies. The most common of which are the lizardmen, but beastmen are a rare sight due to their insular culture.

If you want to make one up, just PM me some background information on them and put them somewhere on this map.

Just remember: Irithia, Sirris, and Rhode are the countries of mankind, Irithia is a kingdom of castles and nobles, Sirris is a cold theocracy lead by the church (most clerics, priests, and paladins come from here), Rhode is a coalition of different countries. Adagari is the country of beasts, Morburne is a horrible place to be because of all of the "demons", and the ancients still exist in the Ancient Marsh.

I'm always up for a fantasy RP like this. Quick question though, do we have to use purely anime art? Cause the image I was planning on using for my character is more fantasy than anime.

I would prefer it if it was anime because I actually use the images for something and having drastically different art-styles causes huge sore-thumbs, but at the end of the day, images are just reference images so it doesn't matter. Unless that fantasy art is the generic 80's fantasy cover art drawn by Boris Vallejo.

@SilverDawn I don't want to screw with your plans, so here's the pic I was thinking about using. If it's too fantasy for this RP, I've got a backup. Erza from Fairy Tail is pretty freaking close to this image.
