Since the first days of the world, when the Greatfather and his seven mighty sons walked the land, Magnar has been the homeland of the Born: Children in their tongue. A dozen centuries have passed since those heady days, and in that time the children of the Greatfather's sons have tamed the rugged lands of Magnar and carved out seven great realms, one for each of the Greatfather's sons. The hosts of the vengeful dead have been laid to rest forever and the trolls have been banished to their lairs deep in the mountains. Invaders too have hoped to despoil the birthright of the Born; the Thalasan Empire, bringing horses and magicks, nearly succeeded in destroying the great realms centuries ago, but they too were ultimately repulsed. Every enemy of the Born, unbowed children of the Greatfather, have been laid low. Magnar has always been a birthright for all men, though not one easily-earned. Now, winter snow thaws in the north. The rivers run swift, impregnated and gorged by the melt and rains of springtime. Leaves bud anew as the bone-chilling winds of winter give way to the wet snap of spring, and the world-snake uncoils from its skin, anew for the fresh year ahead.



Welcome to Magnar, a roleplay based on the works of @gorgenmast and @Dinh Aaronmk. Thank you for reading this far. If you were hoping to find a premade plot by now, I'm afraid it's not here. The plot will largely depend on the kinds of sheets I accept -- If people want viking wars, it'll be viking wars. If people have sheets emphasizing religion, it'll be religious magic. If people want personal stories, we won't have a plot, and the world will exist to expand upon through micro-interactions and collaborative worldbuilding. I don't really care. I just want to write about vikings. If you want to write about vikings too, please let me know in this interest check.

How realistic are we talking? Are you thinking historical fiction or viking-themed fantasy adventure?

I think I'm interested either way....just wondering.

OOC can be found here!

@ElRey814 Realistic fiction. The world operates somewhat using the Rule of Cool, but there is no outright magic you can see, point at, and go "that's magic." For instance, I'm playing a peoples who have domesticated seals, who coordinate them in a way real-world seals could not feasibly be trained. Doesn't exactly hold up to Magic Missile on the fantasy scale, but it doesn't hold up to Danish medieval realism either.
