It was neither the heaven you were promised nor was it the black void that you were convinced it was. Instead it was an infinite tunnel of memories, sharpened to perfect recall, as if reliving your entire life for eternity. All the joys, despairs, heroic feats, defeats, and even the very moment that you past away, as if the universe was keeping your existence bottled for safe keeping. Strangely, you cannot seem to remember how long this eternity lasted or how many times you relived your life - was it only a hundred times or hundreds of thousands? Finally, however, you reached the end of the road. All your memories suddenly go blank only to be replaced by the image of a woman, robed in the purest of white and skin nearly as pale as snow. She looks down, a cowl permanently covering her eyes as she points down. You follow her direction and your gaze is met by a strange sight indeed - a familiar land, where you once lived, however it is covered by a permafrost and darkness. Before you can even attempt to protest this scene, her otherworldy voice echos against the void, [color=gray]"I have kept you for this very reason, my precious soul. She is dark and cold and dying - you and your brethren shall breath life into her once more. You must find the source of this death. The World is calling you..."[/color][/i] [hr] [hider=Rules] • GM's final word is law - however she is a fair and just story teller. • Common sense: No meta-gaming, no god-modding, nor power-gaming. • Romance is allowed, but please keep PG-13+ scenes to PMs. • Inactivity or being busy is understandable, but please post once a week at least. If you incur two weeks absence [u]without[/u] talking to the GM for prior approval, then you will be removed at will. It's not complicated, just communicate! • This role-play is meant to be an adventuring party. If a character greatly removes themselves from this idea, they may risk being removed. Examples are like going on individual adventures for long periods of time, not interacting with other characters, or generally fighting the group's goals as a whole. • Permadeath does not exist here, however consequences will happen for each and every choice the group and individuals make. • Rules may be subject to change at any time.

It is made of varies different climates and cultures throughout the ages, from desert villages to the barbarian clans of the coldest mountains. However as it stands towards the end of the current history, it is dark and coated with a permanent permafrost that covers even the scorching sands - a terrible thing to slowly siphon the life of the planet.[/hider] [hider=Technology]Technology has always fluctuated from the humble beginnings of warrior tribes to medieval armor and weaponry all the way up to airships and light magitech machines. Black powder however has never existed, so humanity of the World has always relied on magic and steel for their battles and wars.[/hider] [hider=Magic]Magic is a strange thing indeed. It flows in and out of everything in the World, like the breeze that blows to caress one's cheek. It manifests in all shapes and sizes, from using it as an internal source to drawing water to freeze enemies. Throughout the ages, it has never ceased to amaze scholars and to this day the most accepted theory is that it answers the call of the user's imagination, heart, and intent. However in rare cases, magic can be granted by two supernatural sources; the Light or the Darkness. It is not strictly more powerful, but these sources are the only magics that can control positive and negative energies, such as healing or raising the dead. No one is strictly aware of who or what these beings are or even if they are truly good or evil, but more often than not positive blessings find themselves to benevolent people while negative to those who are more malevolent.[/hider] [hider=Brief History]• TBA - based on accepted characters[/hider] [/hider] [hider=Character Sheet] [code] [hider=CHARACTER NAME] [h1][b][i][color=BDBDBD][center]CHARACTER NAME[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h1] [center][img]IMAGE URL[/img][/center] [h3][b][i][color=BDBDBD][center]Character Summary[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [b][color=BDBDBD]Name:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Aliases:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Titles:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Age:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Place of Origin:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Kingdom:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Gender:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Time of Death:[/color][/b] (Range from 10,000 to 0 years ago from current start of RP) [h3][b][i][color=BDBDBD][center]Physical Attributes[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [b][color=BDBDBD]Eyes:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Hair:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Day To Day Attire:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Strengths:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Weaknesses:[/color][/b] [h3][b][i][color=BDBDBD][center]Psychological Attributes[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [i][color=BDBDBD][center]Trait * Trait * Trait * Trait[/center][/color][/i] [b][color=BDBDBD]Sexuality:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] [b][color=BDBDBD]Personality:[/color][/b] [h3][b][i][color=BDBDBD][center]Skills[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [color=BDBDBD][i][center]A listing of skills, such as horseback riding or cooking.
