[hr] [center] [h1]Haven for the Inhuman[/h1] A place for those hunted by humans to hide. [/center] [hr] [center] [quote] Good day, dear reader. I hope this letter finds you well. Worry not about how this message got to you; I am a mage, and have used my powers to ensure these letters only reach the intended recepients. I, like you and many others, am one the humans deem to be a threat, and have as a result of this had to go into hiding. I have since constructed a large home, one away from the prying eyes of humans, and have come up with an idea. If many of us were to live in one place, we could easily protect ourselves against the humans. That is why you have received this letter. I am inviting you to come live within this manor, alongside others who have received it. Everything will be provided for, including food and other necessities. On the back of this letter you will find the location of this manor. If you choose to come, you can rest assured a room will be available for you. If not, then I shall wish you the best. [/quote] [/center] This is the letter you found when you woke up one day, with no idea how it got there. There was nobody around, no sign of anybody having been around. It was just... there. Whether it was out of curiosity, out of a desire to be safe, or something else entirely, you chose to follow the instructions on the back. And now, here you are, at the front gate of a large manor secluded in some forest you've never heard of. What kind of new life will wait for you on the other side of those doors? Only one way to find out. [hr] Hello, and welcome, reader! Welcome back, in case you've read the interest check! This will be a slice-of-life RP centered around a group of non-human characters living together in a rather large manor, away from the humans that seek to make them be not-alive and stuff. There will be plot from time-to-time, but mostly focused on fun and interesting character interactions and things like that. Some basic info on the world; it is a medieval-fantasy-style world, though with some modern amenities provided mostly by magic. This mostly includes things like running warm water, plumbing, cold storage but not things like electronic devices and the like. I'm not aiming for a historically-accurate medi-fantasy setting, more something where we can have fun without having to worry too much about staying accurate. Quite often, automated devices are powered by "Mana Batteries", which can be recharged by magic users. They're rare among humans, though, given how there are few mages that are fully human and thus safe from prosecution. Besides that, I'm giving plenty of free reign regarding races and magic to make sure you, the player, get to build and play what you enjoy most. There will be a character application process, however, just to keep things from getting too ridiculous and overpowered. I do want to be able to introduce plot things from time to time and not have them immediately get resolved by a handwave from an overpowered character. But generally, if you keep things reasonable, I'll be fine with it. What this means is essentially that magic is not free, using it expends some form of energy (be it mana, lifeforce, blood, something else), and cannot do everything without effort. Furthermore, I'm also not allowing characters that have massive forms - dragons, leviathans, things like that. We're supposed to be living together in a manor, after all, and no way is a dragon going to fit. Being able to [i]turn into something[/i] is a different story entirely, but don't expect to be able to transform into something huge inside your bedroom, for example. More about character rules will be put in the character tab, but below are the 'code of conduct' rules, so to say. [list] [*] The GM has the final say in things. [*] Respect each other and be civil, we're here to have fun, after all. [*] Make sure to seperate players and their characters. Just because your characters don't get along doesn't mean you have to not get along out of character either. [*] No killing off others without express permission from the player. Fights between characters aren't banned, but please keep this and the previous rule in mind. [/list] Beyond that, just... have fun! If you have any setting-related questions, or just... questions in general, don't hesitate to ask! Just shoot me a PM!
