A realm that has been established between all the rest. Somewhere that anything and anyone can be by magical properties, grounds, and regulations. This is a world where the mythical amongst the austere humans and beasts have lived side-by-side for centuries.
Ephae is assembled by five documented empires. These empires are Yukar, Kitaston, Phesian, Raitish, and Basen.
Yukar is known as the world's trading landmark; it derived from a marketplace in the middle of nowhere in the early stages of life on Ephae. Becoming an epicenter within the first few generations of life, the kingdom of Yukar has sprouted into a beautiful, bustling lifestyle in the skies. The majority of people that come out of this grand city are mainly humans with the career preferences of steampunk engineering, artists, merchants, scientists [mainly weather-based or beast weather-related], and orphanages looking for adventure.
This domain has the highest orphanage rates in all the kingdoms, yet the only orphanage ran in Yukar is by Princess Akoia Gyasi, a known saint of the kingdom. She was adopted by King and Queen Gyasi years ago. She generously made Yukar a better place, influencing the habitat to increase school graduation rates, overall higher ages of morality, and greatly needed laws to lead structure.
Princess Akoia Gyasi is known as the "Poor One's Saint," she is the founder of the Otok Orphanage and the hybrid school system Yukar Institute for the gifted. This hybrid school includes all races and abilities from the ripe ages of three to fifteen.
Kitaston is known to have the largest population out of all the kingdoms, possibly combined? Records are never up-to-date or received on time, so the world may never know... or will they? Not only known for the world's largest population, but Kitaston is also known for being the most prominent academic community and meeting area for the council of Ephae.
Every meeting is held in Kitaston with the gathering of every ruler of the united kingdoms (with drawbacks).
Phesian is located near a rainforest, a desert, and the oceans of Ephae. One of the only kingdoms that are not landlocked is a fisherman's dream or sushi lover's utopia; anyone can find any type of sea creature on a vendor's table.
A beautiful tropical paradise set in a medium-humid climate with a heavy rain season in the spring. This kingdom is known for its cultural build-up and vibrant colors.
Raitish is known as the Fae empire. This city is known to have the most diverse species living within it. If you are looking for the unique, rare, or even utterly strange guidance of whoever resides in this kingdom. You are in the right place to get your Oobra taken care of.
Basen is the city under the mountains, an ancient place that once allowed the beasts from the nether to escape its gates. In the deepest caves of the town, one can find a city far under the earth and portals that link this world to others. This is only a fairytale, right?
Fairytales are hard to come by when one tries to thrive in Basen, only the strong live, and the weak perish. Basen is rough around the edges, just like it's people who have no time, nutrients, or patience when it comes to beggars or someone asking for a bit of help.
This is the kingdom of warriors, laborers, and the strongwilled. The ones who fought to survive.
Yukar - NPC(s) King and Queen Gyasi, main face is Princess Akoia Gyasi Kitaston - Phesian - Raitish - Basen - Discussing with @Dark Cloud
Name - What is your name? - Examples include Thog from the Southern Coast, Bennet Kumbache, Rosa Lee Jenkins, etc... Titles - Are you a king, queen, or leader of some sort? - A knight? - Higher rank in society? Aliases - Nicknames, what do friends call you? - What do you go by so people don't know your real name? Species - What are they? Normal human? Fairy?Demon? God? What are we talking about here? Age - Actual age or estimate - Appearance - For example, Tony is 50, but he looks 25. Gender - Female, male, genderless, multi-gendered? Sexual orientation - Usually what somebody likes romantically. Aka, the opposite sex, the same sex, etc... Height - Make this reasonable with your species. - For example, on average, humans are 5' - 6'2 -- Do not make a human 7' unless there is a great reason. Ordinary humans do not need to be 7'+ or 1' tall. Weight - Same with height, make it make sense. Do not have a 1' tall fairy character that is 1000 lbs or a 6'2" human that is 10 lbs. This should be medically impossible. - Actual weight and feel are way different. Your character could only weigh 5 lbs and feel like 1000 lbs to someone. Why is this? Are they a god and highly dense in muscle mass?
Brief Personality Keeping this brief, believing that personality comes with the length of roleplaying the character out and intertwining them into a story. A few words, maybe bullet points or up to two paragraphs explaining what they are like. The main thing to think about or declare is what alignment they are? Are they are hero-like characters, anti-hero, anti-villain, villain? Where do they land on this scale? Morals? Ethics? Strength(s)/enjoyment(s) Bullet point or briefly explain Weakness(es)/displeasement(s) Bullet point or briefly explain
Abilities Again keep it sensible. If you have a plain old human character, Tony most likely cannot shoot lasers out of his eyes. If he can, explain why (you better have a good reason Tony can do this). Abilities can never undoubtedly kill someone else's character(s) without permission from the owner. Background - Where did your character come from? Do they even remember? Are they initially from Ephae, or did they appear one day? - What are some prominent situations that lead up to who your character is? Are they depressed? Do they only see the good in people? Why are they annoyed by cheese all the time? - Who is this person we are talking about? Because I doubt it is Tony this time.
Notice - Questions, concerns, and confusion can occur while filling out, submitting, and processing through approval. You may receive more than one question or none; who knows till you try?
This is my idea so far for Ephae; I will be adding to it while the week(s) pass. The main argument for this roleplay is that it will be for everyone's enjoyment to have main plots, side plots, and ideas from the player(s) that want to put their own spice into the world.
You want to be a ruler of Basen? Challenge for it. Building a fabric shop and making dresses is your lifetime dream even though your fae parents think you would do better in the magic universities of Yukar, Kitaston, or Raitish? Go make that fabric shop dream a reality.
The rules are in a process since I want to make this accessible, friendly, and sandbox-based for everyone who wants to join. This will be a world to live another life, experience magic, evil, peace, or whatever your heart desires.
I hope to see you wandering the fresh earth of Ephae; come join me for some tea sometime!
@OddApproved I'm tentatively interested however I find the advanced tag extremely daunting, do I really have to push out like hundred paragraph posts? I just can't my guy, but I'm still interested.
@Dark Cloud I decided to change it to casual because I want the informal relaxation setting with a little bit of work. I was thinking about changing it or not even putting the advanced tag at all, so being vocal about it has lightened my thoughts on the idea. Thank you for your help.
@Dark Cloud I didn't consider the inquiry would catch so quickly, but we can definitely discuss this arrangement over tea. In private messages or here, we can definitely discuss you becoming the ruler of Basen.
Add-on: On this side note, the other kingdoms will need rulers as well. Mhm, maybe I should search for those people.
