Welcome, traveler, to...












Deep in the core of the Dunes lies there a City โ€“ marvel of the world it be, as not such a magic as it exists. The stories which are told to you and I about this captivating oasis in the heart of the Ocean of Dust are true: I have seen it with my own eyes, though many years have passed since my great expedition through the great desert. For many long, sweltering days and deep, biting-cold nights we plowed our way through the sands, driven on by the peculiar kevol who drew our carriages across the Dunes. Twice we encountered the accursed, colossal sandstorms of the desert, whirling as high as the very heavens, and spreading from horizon to horizon. After a monthโ€™s journey โ€“ and what felt like an eternity โ€“ we finally saw the glimmering point of a great tower: Paragon Keep, of the Mirage City. I blinked one-thousand times and shook the sand from my eyes until my neck was sore, but in spite of my disbelief we were soon upon the phenomenal city gate, and I knew then for it to be true.

There is no greater mystique in all of Peylor than the City of Glimhollow.

--Boris Nirloff, Annals of Peylor






Here you stand at the Gateway of Glimhollow, the Lone Oasis at the heart of the great desert known simply as the Dunes โ€“ a monumental blemish within the center of the world of Peylor. The City of Sand is widely regarded as myth to those who live beyond the Dunes, as the connection to the outside world is nearly non-existent, save for the monthly visits from the Kevol Caravans. A nation built within a single city, Glimhollow has survived for centuries thanks to the mysterious energy of the spark crystals that it lies atop of, as these peculiar jewels fuel every fire, enrich every crop and power every machine within the cityโ€™s sandstone walls, as well as the civilization below the nationโ€™s mines in what has been dubbed Deepwell โ€“ an immeasurable, blackened ocean, extending in every direction but upward for as far as any sparkboat has been able to venture, and return.
You are here for whatever reason it may be: your elfen grandfather sought refuge from the genocide of his people; your dwarfen ancestors were among the first to mine the gemstones that were discovered here, so long ago; or youโ€™re a simple human caravaneer, looking to prove the cityโ€™s existence to yourself, and discover what secrets it may hold. But alas, you have been snatched into the clutches of the greatest political feud that has ever occurred within this desert metropolis, as the populace has been forced under near-militaristic rule by the Paragon โ€“ the council of nobility that dictate every significant action within the city. Beware, as there are dangers lurking behind every corner, and even the sand beneath your boot is more treacherous than it seemsโ€ฆ












Hello, and welcome. I'm glad you've made it this far, if this has caught your attention. As you may have guessed, this RP will be focused on the strange happenings in the city-nation of Glimhollow: a beacon of civilization set in the middle of a monumental desert. The events that brought you here are undoubtedly varied, but one thing is for certain - you are a member of the Dusthawks, a gang of thieves and cutthroats holed up in the depths of the city, and against your best wishes, have become enthralled in the midst of a conflict that has been brewing in this oasis for years.

Any and all are welcome to join the Discord server, where much more information regarding the city and world lore is stored. While it may feel overwhelming, the intention is for a story to be told of one group's perspective on the events that will soon be ensnaring the whole of the city, and their individual roles in it's resolution.

Though a starting date has yet to be selected, I plan on getting something set up this month, and as such will hope that your involvement in its development shows your dedication and investment to the idea presented. As such, I'm hoping for this to be a very long-running RP, and wish to have the participation required to keep it going for as long as intended.

Thank you for your interest, and I hope to be speaking with you soon!
