Greetings future hero’s, mercenaries, lords, ladies, murder hobos, and potentially evil sorcerers! You have been accepted into the prestigious halls of Hoseforn’s Academy for Gifted Adventurers! Here you can learn everything you will need in order to expand your skills, whether that be in magic, martial skill’s, or sneaking around and stabbing people in the back. We hear at Hoseforn’s don't judge! (Much) Hoseforn’s has a reputation for training some of the greatest adventurers to ever walk the grand continent of Ealinata. Prestigious name such as Greta, the Strong, Withfort, Master of Secrets, and Mortizmo, the Entirely NOT Mad, are all famous graduates of Hoseforn’s. When we are done with you, you too will have potential for greatness.

Don’t be fooled, the road ahead will be far from easy. Monsters inhabit every shadowy corner of Ealinata. Bandits and Ne'er-do-well’s pester the main roads and constantly bother the rich and poor alike. Angry deities plague towns and and annoy farmers daughters. And there are the rumors.


But fear not brave young adult! Hoseforn’s Academy for Gifted Adventurers will give you all the tools and training you need in order to succeed in the real world, we promise! Grab your armor, your spell-books, and your various pointy objects, and begin the life you were meant for today!



About this RP


As you might have guessed from the description, this is going to be a high fantasy based roleplay that only steals a tiny bit from DnD. You are welcome to be just about anything you want except a God trapped in a little girls body (or anything along those lines). If there is a race you want to play, have at it! A word of warning, the less educated of the world are more likely to fear the non-humanlike races, though intolerance is not tolerated within the walls of Hoseforn. You are free to play this as seriously, or idiotically as you wish, however, stupid actions receive stupid prizes.

To encourage interaction between players, adventuring parties will be formed. If you dont like your party, it sucks to be you, there are lots of people out there you wont like, you have to learn to deal with them.

Their are only a few rules in place for your character creation:

1. You are fresh meat a new student who has just arrived.
2. You must be your races equivalent of young adult. For instance, humans would be around 18.
3. You are NOT an expert in your chosen field, if you were you wouldn’t be coming to Hoseforn.
4. Your character should have flaws, there will be a section in your CS for it. Seriously, no one or thing is perfect and adding flaws to a character adds depth.
5. I wasn’t kidding about the “no gods trapped in a little girls body” thing. Demi-gods are out too I’m afraid.

I strongly encourage any and all help in world building. I am going to be ironing a few things out but I want to see what kind of interest there is for this. A CS, RP rules and a section about the world you live in will be coming shortly (If I can get off my lazy donkey it will be tonight)

The Rules


1. No Godmodding or playing literal gods.
2. Characters may have issues with one another, keep it in character. OOC bickering is extremely frowned upon. If you have issues with another rper, please privately bring it to my attention so we can try to resolve it.
3. If for some reason you cannot continue with the RP that's totally fine, just let me know or I'll assume you were consumed by the abyss and your character will get eaten by a sentient pumpkin.
4. Your actions have consequences. If you stick your arm in a dragons mouth you're probably not gonna have that arm much longer.
5. Romance between characters is perfectly fine but keep it classy (PG13)
6. All suggestions are welcome and encouraged. Constructive criticism is great, being a dick is not.
7. You are required to try and have fun. Non-compliance will be met with extreme sneering. If for some reason you aren't having fun let me know so we can try to work on it.



The CS




The World



Why am I so excited about a map? Not sure, but any places, big or small, will be added to said map as time progresses. Any player made cities or capitals will also be added as we go.






The Academy


Hoseforn’s is an approximately 2000 acre fortress of learning. Its is equipped with the most advanced magitech available on the market today and offers all of the luxuries you could ever ask for. It is capable of housing approximately 1000 students at a time, although in general houses a little over half that many. The staff lives on site for most of the year and each has their own private residence (or pocket dimension for the magically snobbish). Student’s are usually housed with one to two roommates in order to promote team work (and save space). Special accommodations can be provided for different races of creatures depending on their needs. All dorms are found on the outskirts of the campus because walking is good for you and promotes a healthy lifestyle.













The Staff















M A G I C


Magic is the backbone of Ealinata. All creatures have Mana (Magical juice) inside of them, although not everyone is capable of using it. The primary way of using magic is through chanting spells, using runes (strange symbols that potentially explode if used incorrectly), and through contracts with powerful spirits. Some creatures are capable of natural magic, these people/things are not really able to control the magic it just sort of happens.

I'll try to get a character done in the next few days - looking forward to this!

Edit: Classes have been rough, so progress is slow - I should be done in 2 to 3 days though.

Ooh, this sounds like a lot of fun! I'm musing over the idea of an Orc Shaman, but I have a couple of questions first. :)

Would a nomadic tribe of Orcs fit the setting? If so, would there be specific places they would not be welcome to roam through?

Can my Shaman bring a Warg to school with them?

I'm feeling inspired by the First Nations concept of a Two-Spirit and would like my character to be a third gender, but I don't want to step on your toes if this wouldn't fit the setting.

@Laser Kiwi

There's not anywhere in particular that I have planned out where they wouldn't be allowed. Some of the human settlements are likely a little more wary/ prejudice against orcs though.

A warg is fine just describe it for us.

And I had to look up what Two-Spirit meant but I dont have a problem with it just describe it in the CS so everyone can be on the same page.

@Duoya No worries, take however long you need there's no rush.

@Laser Kiwi@Inertia Both characters are great. Go ahead and post them in the character section.

I'm (finally) posting my own character as well.

@Aerandir I was looking forward to your character being a boi. But I guess a female guard could work as well.
