So I have ideas for making an open-worlded fantasy Plot AND Character-driven RP. I'm still working on a plot but what you CAN expect is the following:
-Currency & Shops
-Ability to buy your own house, cottage, or mansion.
-Open-world driven with a bunch of quests and hopefully an Immersive plot.
-A 'Threat' Level system, which serves as a Pseudo-Cosmetic ranking to show how powerful a character is.
-Tournaments and the classic PvP stuff.
-Character Development
-A Armor & Weapons Tier system which isn't TOO complicated.
-
A Special Limitation and Reservation List for Overpowered and Divine/Legendary/God Items. Races, Items, and Spells included How Death Works Death in the roleplay is PERMANENT otherwise it wouldn't be fair to have Limited Items, Races, and Magicks. But there IS a catch. In Cities, Temples, and sometimes towns Revive Tomes will be for sale: Each Character will start off with ONE Revive tome, you have a maximum of ten with you at a time. Revive tomes keep you from dying permanently and thus it's best to have a lot of them. They are found via Item Drops, Cities, and Temples, and again, sometimes Towns. If you die without ANY revive tomes in your inventory, your character is dead...forever.
Aragonia Lore, Go here to read the world was created, religions, and small factions.Most Spells will be custom spells that players may create! Meaning you can create any spell you like! There IS a beginner spellbook for reference and for starting spells though! Also note: you may choose to share your spell as in teach others or write your spell in a scroll, or keep it private.
You are allowed to make your own spell which where most of the spells will come from; the playerbase.

There IS a material system in play and may be confusing at first, but here you go:
The Material System is a "tier" system of armors in what is better than the others. Anything that is within two tiers is what is able to be destroy, dented, damage. Anything OUTSIDE of those four (two below and two above) tiers are either liable to be broken, damaged, dented QUITE easily, or will be impossible to destroy. (Dragon Steel & Enchanted Mithril is an exception to this)
Note that "sub-tiers" (Tier 2&1/2) still counts as Tier 2. The Matariels listed underneath the tiers are requirements to forge weapons/armor, matarials are earned via item drop or Mining, because in Aragonia all adventurers a Magic Pickaxe that never breaks and can mine anything. Then go to a Town or City to forge your armor/weapon, but NOTE you must visit a City or Temple to enchanted the armor such as Holy Grail Armor which needs Holy Magic. You can either learn the "Forging" Spells via a Temple or Blacksmith Tutor or bring it to a player/NPC.

To work out the confusion, treat every tier as the middle tier, two tiers below and two tiers above is what can damage the middle tier. The middle tier will always severly dent and possibly destroy anything two tiers or more under it. So here is a key:
-3 tiers below or more = You'll have a huge chance of nearly destroying if not breaking their armor/weapons. No resistance. Walk in the park.
-2 tiers below = Severly Damage Armor/Weapons, expect dented armor and bent weapons, expect to be able to pierce easily. Little resistance
-1 tier below = Will Pierce through the armor to damage the opponent and damage armor. Some resistance.
Same Tier = Will have to attack a few times to make a dent and damage. Moderate Resistance.
+1 Tier higher = Tougher to break and will require more attacks, more vulnerable to damage your armor. Hard resistance.
+2 Tiers higher = Very tough to break and will require many repeated attacks, very vulnerable to your armor and weapons. Very hard resistance
+3 Tiers or higher = Impossible to break, don't try it pal. Your armor/weaponry will either be broken or very damaged. (Bent, Very Dented, etc)
And, here is the current story arc!
Year 100 Anno Domini. two-thousand years after Bleda saved the world..
Aragonia, a world full of opportunity and adventure, it is common for a civilian to be armed with a weapon to protect themselves against the bandits in the night. Though, there are some who are more adventerous, those who wish to seek their fortunes by battling against monsters to keep the civilians safe, or being a mercenary for the Grand Army of Daggerfell, and yet there are some who are surviving in the harsh world. We begin our story Zorrodawn, the Festival of Bleda is starting in honor to him whom saved us from having to live underground in fear and casting off Zhiena, the evil goddess back to her hovel. The festival is about to start, and some armed individuals, who knows what they mean, are in the crowd, covered in hoods and wearing steel chestplates and greaves. The air was uneasy, even the people there knew something was going to happen, they seemed to brace themselves. Though another less-mean looking group of individuals were outside on the Plaza Square, waiting for the Festival to start, some were even in the nearby Flaming Dagger Inn & Tavern. Well then....are you out on the Plaza Square? Or in the tavern?
And that's about it! Those are the main things of this RP! Keep in mind it's a fantasy open world RP that you can follow the plot or do your own thing. (I highly suggest following the first plot to get a hang of it) and of course, have fun!
