[INDENT][sub][sup][h3][COLOR=SLATEGRAY][b]P R E M I S E:[/b][/COLOR][/h3][/sup][/sub][/INDENT][hr][INDENT][INDENT]Lord Wraith invites you to return to a simpler time and embrace the nostalgia of epic battles waged between beast and vermin. Adapting the novels of Brian Jacques into a roleplay, the intention is to replicate Jacques' storytelling style with players taking on the roles of Abbey Dwellers or other members of Mossflower in an effort to repeal an invading vermin horde led by a Prince intent on taking both the titular Abbey and the Sword of Martin the Warrior for himself.

As events unfold in the initial IC, it will turn out that the Sword of Martin the Warrior is missing from Redwall Abbey. After the Spirit of Martin reveals itself to the player characters, they will then depart from the Abbey to locate the ancestral weapon, all while the advancing horde led by the Yurazen Prince comes closer and closer. Ideally, the story will revisit favourite locations like Salamandastron, and favourite factions like the Guosim (the Guerilla Union of Shrews in Mossflower) shrews and the Long Patrol.

Players will be allowed to apply initially for one primary character who will be undergoing the quest, but later able, and encouraged to create supporting characters as other factions are encountered and the world expands. In keeping with the style of the books, heroic characters will only be 'beasts' (mice, squirrels, otters, moles, hedgehogs, shrews, hares and badgers), while villainous characters will be vermin. Initially, players will be dissuaded from applying as vermin, but as the Yurazen Prince and his army come more and more into focus, players will be able to assume the role of supporting characters in the vermin horde.[/INDENT][/INDENT]
