Two decades ago, alien creatures descended upon the world. The kingdoms of the north, south, east, and west finally joined forces after centuries of backstabbing and warring to counter this threat. However, even with the valiant efforts of the most promising heroes and warriors, the tide of darkness slowly started to shatter the land piece by piece and replaced it with something corrupt and twisted. While there is still beauty in the world, it's all at risk to falling to the dark moon and there seems to be no way of stopping the coming flood.

So desperate times call for miracles and for the first time in recorded history, the land started to see legendary heroes from the past being revived across the world. The mysterious deity Vis is the only one capable of such a feat and many praise her for once more saving her children - even though she does not oft interfere with mortal affairs. The heroes themselves find themselves torn from a time long past to see that kingdoms have fallen, friends have disappeared, and the lands are being change in ways they could never imagine.

Welcome!

In this role-play, player's will be playing revive legendary heroes from the past. The only limitation is that they're human, but other than that, they can be from any setting or culture - be it a desert bandit that acted like Robin Hood or some heroic sky pirate (yes, airships). Though no gunpowder will exist, feel free to extend past technologies to airships or even magitech if you want. Other than that, it's meant to be a role-play with heroic figures facing off some unknown, powerful evil. There are a few rules though, before you express interest.

• I have a vision for this setting, which isn't fully explained, partially to not give spoilers. I won't budge on this, however, I will work with you as best as I can - if you are intent on playing this story with me. If your character doesn't fit, that's okay, I wish you the best elsewhere.
• Characters can, for the most part, be injected into the story at any point I believe.
• I won't kill off the heroes, though doesn't mean things will be easy.
• There will be more slice of life type of scenarios, since I adore them as much as adventure. Drama is accepted here.
• Romance and everything included is fine here, but anything sexual, please take elsewhere to follow guild rules.
• I will be posting once a week at least - if you haven't posted by then, you'll be given one chance to at least explain you're busy but still intend to stay. If I post twice and you haven't been heard from, we will move on without you. I stay at home and this is for me as much as others, meaning if you can't keep up with that posting speed, then this role-play isn't for you.
• The power levels are more epic, but don't create demigods.
• I won't start the role-play until there's at least 4 other committed role-players.

These are fictional legendary heroes that we make up and not like takes on existing characters right?

Well.. I think I can deal with anything that can be spun into a medieval fantasy world. So if you have a take on someone based in our real world myth and want to adapt it, that's okay! I'm actually doing that myself. I'm unsure if I want to make it a surprise or not yet though. Still - yeah, that or make completely original characters.

Ooooo, I could be interested.

I've been looking for an excuse to make a trap character and it could be really fun to play around with this.

This makes me think of Fate a bit with the Heroes from the past bit. XD

@Pyromania99 - It kind of does, doesn't it!? Hehe. Well, the inspiration of my own character started there... but the inspiration for the setting was from a previous RP I was in. =3

@Fabricant451 You could always make a mute, steam sky pirate.

.....who is possibly legendary for smashing pots to find money in them, and wields a magic anti-evil sword. I can help the LoZ reference plz understand.

Hopefully we get more interest, but working on OOC information right now. ^-^ I suppose I won't make it much of a secret - but Excalibur is spoken for. ^.-

@Lyla Oh, there are a lot more magic swords from Arthurian lore to gun for if we want.

But thanks for letting us know. ;)

But with that in mind, i am tempted to make my character the "merlin" to that "king arthur", really!

@Crusader Lord - Well, might want to wait until you see her story then. ^.- Or just message me on Discord or PM here to get it and we can work something out. =3 Though there are different takes where Merlin is from a different timeline than Arthur, but connected.
