[INDENT]30 years have passed since the last Pirate King roamed the seas. Monkey D. Luffy and his band of merry men were notorious throughout the world for traversing the mysterious Grand Line, conquering the New World and obtaining the truth about the origins of both the World Government and the network of sailors who call themselves, Pirates. Towards the end of his journey, Luffy had obtained the respect of many islands and focused his attention on cleaning up the seas of those who he deemed to be 'bad'. However, although he managed to rid the world of many evil Pirates and Marines alike, the world inevitably keeps turning and history continues to repeat itself in the form of new dreamers setting sail onto the greatest sea in the world. Not long after he ascended to the seat of Pirate King, the greatest crew in the world simply vanished. Without a trace or word, there was nobody left alive who could account for the whereabouts of the Straw-Hats, some hypothesized that in order to live a peaceful life the Straw-Hats had took it upon themselves to flee to Raftel, or one of the Sky-Islands, where they would forever remain undisturbed till the end of their days. On the year of the turtle, Luffy declared that he had left the greatest treasure ever to have existed, One Piece, in its rightful place, waiting there for the next crew who were destined to become the new kings of the sea. Ushering the world into the next era, whispers float through the Grand Line and the Blues, the seat of Pirate-King is once again up for grabs and those who seek power, fame and fortune are once again sailing towards their dreams.
 
The race for One Piece has once again, begun.

[hr][H3][color=ed1c24]Premise[/color][/H3][INDENT]Romance Dawn is a semi-sandbox type role play based on One Piece. You will be part of a single crew of rookie pirates starting in the South Blue. After some time in the four blues, and we'll move on to tackle the Grand Line itself. More emphasis would be directed towards sailing and the journey in between islands. Improving your ship via parts and upgrades will be options granted to you. Goals throughout the story would probably include improving your skills and abilities, amassing wealth beyond your imaginations, become infamous beyond measure, and engraving your name in history to name a few. Be as cunning as Law, reckless as Luffy, profane as Bartholomeo, or as merciless and bloodthirsty as Kid or Akainu; your choice really.

[hr][h3][color=ed1c24]Item Tiers[/color][/h3][INDENT]From swords to ships, cannons to hull plating, awesome sails to flintlock pistols, everything has a quality level. A tier if you will. For example, a Tier 2 sword will be better than a Tier 1 sword. It may be sharper or tougher or have jewels in it's hilt or whatever, but something will set it apart from a regular old Tier 1 sword. The same can be said for most anything in this world. Some things are simply better. And you know you only want the best, rarest, most ass kicking stuff don't you? Well here's a handy list of what you can expect from the tiers:

[HIDER=Tier List][LIST][*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 1 [Ordinary][/b][/color]
The stuff you can find in any market.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 2 [Uncommon][/b][/color]
The stuff you'd be lucky to find in that one overly friendly man's market stall.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 3 [Special][/b][/color]
Things you'd find in specialty shops that cater to specific purposes.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 4 [Rare][/b] [/color]
Things that specialty shops try to out bid each other on.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 5 [Epic][/b][/color]
These are the kind of things the wealthy pay huge sums of money for so they can put it on a shelf and just look at it for hours. Very high quality.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 6 [Legendary][/b][/color]
Things in this realm tend to be a higher tier for more than just their quality. These are items that have a history. The sails of a famous pirates ship for example.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 7 [Mythical][/b][/color]
Things that have achieved, or have been used to achieve, incredible feats. Items of impeccable quality, with a history to match. Some of these things have literally helped forge the world as we know it.
[*][color=ed1c24][b]Tier 8 [Dream-like][/b][/color] 
Actually seeing one of these items is pretty much unheard of. These are the sort of things the great Pirate King and his crew might once have used.[/LIST][/HIDER][/INDENT][/INDENT]
