Mages under liege has been ‘The Way’ since before History was recorded. The Crown quickly realised that immense power must be controlled. Those touched by the hands of Magic are too dangerous to be given long leashes.
The rulers of each Continent cultivated a culture fearful enough of magic that, unless protected by the Crown, Mages had no choice but to fear for their lives. The practice of Magic is punishable by death… Unless you’re a Mage. Many died at the tip of a Royal Blade. And before they even had a chance to grieve their friends, their family, the Crown sent for conscriptions.
Kings & Queens have subjected Mages to glorified enslavement for years; They do their bidding, they protect, they defend, they divine, they advise… But in recent years the relationship between Royalty and their Mages has become tumultuous. There’s an unspoken strain that has begun to appear… It was once a Mage’s ultimate dream to serve the Crown. To be able to practice Magic freely under the guise of being a Royal Subject. Now? Mages are slowly realising that the position they’re held in is simply a plight for control in the guise of protection. After all, whose soldiers are still culling Magic-Users? Whose army is tasked with the pursuit and punishment of young Blessed subjects?
Conveniently, just as whispers of anarchy began to travel through the continents, a War began to brew. A fight for control, for land, overall power. And, unsurprisingly, the Mages are key players both on the Frontline and in strategy. The Right Hand to the Crown, each Continent’s respective Royal Mage is the weapon of mass destruction. Will War keep them close? Or will it be the perfect opportunity to overthrow the Crown and walk free?
They must be bound to the Crown.

“Become a Royal Mage.
Receive Royal protection.”

Hello, dear reader. Thank you for reading this Interest Check. If you’re still here, then you’re interested in being part of this story. This is a Medieval Setting but takes place in a World split into 4 Main Continents:
ȶɦɛ ɖɛʐɛʀȶ - A desolate, hot, desert-like land. Known for harbouring outlaws and secrets.
ȶɦɛ քʟǟռɛֆ - Meadows, wildflowers, grassland. An idyllic ecosystem where nature, and its people, thrive.
ȶɦɛ ʍօʊռȶǟɨռɛֆ - Arduous, rocky, mountainous. The clean air and altitude makes for inhabitants with stamina and good-health.
ȶɦɛ ǟռȶǟʀȶɨӄ - Cold, icy, snow-filled lands. The challenging elements have forged a resilient, hardened populous.
Depending on level of interest, I can split these into Sub-Continents to accommodate more players... But let’s start with those and see how we get on!
Your Character will be a Royal Mage. Each Continent has one. You will be expected to NPC your own Royal Family. I’ll leave it up to you how heavy-handed you go with that. (And if you’d rather, I’m happy to step in to play your King/Queen!)
You’re an adept Mage. Royal selection depicts that you are advanced in Magic; Spellcasting and Alchemy are skills you’ve honed. Mage’s Magic often reflects their personality; Dark? Light? You decide.
For now, this is just a call to arms for Advanced Writers who love a Medieval Fantasy story. There’ll be war, there’ll be betrayal, there might even be Romance… Would you like to join? Register your interest below!
Please only throw your hat in the ring if you’re willing to commit to a regular posting schedule and enjoy writing fairly lengthy post with detail and articulation. I love RPers who come with their own ideas and sense of direction. If that’s you, please do drop in below!
Thanks for reading, everyone. Hope to hear from you soon!
