Be you a vagrant or a whore; a prince or a general. May the former self be cleansed in mage-fire. May trembling hands be severed. May throats moaning trepidation be drowned. May feet eager to leave this holy ground feel searing coals with each step beyond these walls. Let your fears die, and all that you once were pass on with it. You are called to a greater purpose. You are a blade in the fog finding liberation in oppressive mists. You are a conduit for the dead; a brazier for the living. Yours is the darkest of burdens to bear, but you are the wardens of tainted blood. You are the breaker of beasts. Extend your hand, and may our Goddess Minerva, by her infinite power, accept your oath by blood.[/i] [/center] [hr][hr] [center][h2]Synopsis[/h2][/center] This RP will be a much more focused RP, but will pull from the mythos of "A Tale of Owls and Wolves". An RP-building adventure I've worked on for a while. The RP will focus on the gothic-inspired Vicelles. For info about the lore as a whole, feel free to visit [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/169826-a-tale-of-owls-and-wolves/ooc]here[/url]. You and a small group of players would create characters who would serve as a "freshman class" of initiates into the Order of Vigilance. The Order of Vigilance is an organization, created over two eras ago, to protect the country of Vicelles from the terrors of the fogs that blanket most of the country's forests. Within the forests (and sometimes outside of them) lurk all manner of terrors. The Hallow Men, Arisen, Lycans, Harpies, The Crows of North March, and many other fantastic horrors. Your characters will begin to understand the full truth of the blood oath, and what that means for them. One can expect narrative and politics to play an fairly important role in the story, and can expect your characters to make decisions as a group that may have worldly implications. Your character can come to join the group in most any manner you'd like. Ranging from being commuted here for a criminal sentence, being a rogue mage (a witch), family tradition, etc. I'll throw a CS down at the end of this post so you can get a sense of what a character might look like for you! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions! I hope to see some interest in this. I've gone back and forth with creating the RP as I've had some personal things that pulled me away from the site for a while, but I'm eager to return to RPing and storytelling! Thanks for reading! [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] [hider=Character Sheet] [code][hr][hr][h1][b][i][color=6ecff6][center]Character Name[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h1] [center][img]Character Image[/img][/center] [hr][hr][h3][b][i][color=6ecff6][center]Character Summary[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [b][color=6ecff6]Name:[/color][/b](Full Name) [b][color=6ecff6]Titles:[/color][/b] [b][color=6ecff6]Aliases:[/color][/b](Nicknames, previous names, maiden names, etc.) [b][color=6ecff6]Age:[/color][/b] [b][color=6ecff6]Race/Ethnicty:[/color][/b] (Human, Elven, Dwarven, Orcish) [b][color=6ecff6]Continent of Origin:[/color][/b](Carthian, Penultish, High Mister, Valenndalic/Dalic) [b][color=6ecff6]Gender:[/color][/b] [b][color=6ecff6]Class/Subclass:[/color][/b] [hr][hr][h3][b][i][color=6ecff6][center]Stats[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [color=6ecff6][i][center]Though we will not be rolling dice for feats, this will give a base line to run off of for your character.

Feel free to message me if you have any of your own ideas. This section, however, is more for determining your character's arcane focus. Any legally trained mage has a specific focus (while witches can draw from multiple classes, but with less formal training). You can choose from Constitution (healing), Divination (divine), Ruination (destruction), Apparition (illusion), Adjuration (summoning, conjuring), Cultivation (primal/druid).
