[hr][hr][h1][b][i][color=lightsteelblue][center]A Tale of Owls and Wolves[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h1]
[center][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNL6kKVK0iM[/youtube][/center]
	[b][i]The world of Ithea is a wondrous one; fraught with powerful nations and technologies that aim to shake the foundations of this realm. Be it the High Elves of Valenndale, the Orcs of High Mist, or the humans of Carthus and Penault. This tale is one of triumph, exploration, and conquest. 

Beware the misty glimmer of Ithean shores; not all is at it seems. For even the owl's ivory feathers may be plucked, and the wolf's fangs, dulled. [/i][/b]

The year is [b]138[/b] in the Age of Owls. The focus of our tale lies with a group of strangers all brought together by the Talon Company of Ardent's Fall. The local organization is a union of various artisan guilds in Ardent's Fall and throughout all of Carthus. Each member of the unlikely partnership has been brought to this great city for their own reasons, but all of them are indebted to the Talon Company. They find themselves arriving to the city on the day of the 'Festival of Broken Conquerors"- a festival celebrating the vanquishing of elven dragon "Deis the Conqueror" by Ardent Lady of the Bog. 

After a string of murders has terrorized the city the group is formed as a discreet investigative body. As stories of old warn not all is as it seems in Ithea. The magic of this world is an ancient and deceitful mistress. Do take care in unearthing secrets that were never meant for mortal eyes.

If you are ever unsure about something be sure to message me! I try to be as understanding and accommodating as possible!
[center][h2]Rules[/h2][/center]

[hider=The Fun Part]
[list]

[*] Avoid power playing or god-modding. If you're unsure about taking a certain action ask the group/GM through the OOC or in PMs respectively. 
[*] Please do not harass or insult your fellow players. If you are running into a problem please message the GMs in a private message. 
[*] Consult fellow players before making sweeping decisions about the World State. Choices that change the world or impact multiple characters requires the agreement/consideration of the party. 
[*] Secrets among characters are fine, but make sure to message the GM to ensure they can prepare properly. 
[*] Try to avoid OOC chat in the IC
[*] When creating characters and posts please stick to the lore as best you can. The Atlas is an ever-updating tool for you to use, and I'm always a PM away!
[*] Please alert the GM if you are expecting to be away for an extended period of time. This is totally okay, but it's nice to know before you head off. Emergencies happen, and the GM reserves the right to use your character and your related NPCs to progress the story forward as to avoid the RP stalling. 
[*]Please avoid anime art or specific well-known characters for your character images! I love anime, but when it doesn't fit it doesn't fit. 

Honestly, I really hate writing rules but they help maintain a certain standard of decency. So, please just do me a favor and [b]swear allegiance to one of the Ithean countries or continents so I know you've read them! [/b]

[center][h2]Character Sheet[/h2][/center]

If there are more submissions than expected I may have to select from the pool of applicants for the most fitting of the applications. With only myself as GM I would prefer a smaller party of around 4 (not including myself) players. However, if some players want to sign on as Co-GMs as well then I'd be willing to have a slightly larger party. Feel free to let me know if you're interested in being a Co-GM!

I will also allow for reserve submissions if you'd like to secure a spot should anyone drop out down the road!

[b][i]*Feel free to take design liberties with the CS Sheet. I've found this sheet to be a useful skeleton, but as long as you include the information most relevant to your character in a concise and readable way it's fine.*[/i][/b]
