Basic bare bones of the RP as follows...

Genre - Fantasy, Magic, Quest, Adventure, Action, Slice of Life, Drama, Comedy & Romance

Post Size - Average from 3 to 6 paragraphs

RP Size - Around 4 to 6 players

Plot - Three warring countries (which make up the world we're in) all have a large shard (or gem/jewel) that brings life to their country. These shards were said to descend from Gods/Goddesses who forged them hundreds of years ago. These shards are protected by the King and Queen of each country. That is until a dark presence snuck in and shattered each country's shard which sent the entire world into chaos. Famine, disease, poverty and violence broke out and spread across every mountain range, field, and river. These countries were then given a message from the one who forged their shard, that it was now scattered across the world and in order to restore balance, fortune, and good health, the shard's pieces must be collected. Various people across the world had already come into contact with some the various shards from the countries and they've been bestowed great luck and power.

As a whole a gem could at one point summon magic but now that it's been shattered and scattered, the power has weakened considerably but those who are lucky enough to find a bit of a shard, are finding that their lives are turning around. Can each country summon forth a group that can gather the right shards and restore balance to their country or will dark forces get in the way? We will be playing people who have been asked by their respective King and Queen to go forth and find as many shards as possible, each small duo or trio will soon meet up with those from their enemy countries and they will all have to travel together in order to help their personal goal of preservation. This will be a slice of life in the aspect of traveling on a quest and doing many side quest/plots. There will be magic, dragons, evil doers, villages in need of help, back stabbing, etc.

That's as basic as I can make it. If someone is interested, let me know and hopefully we have a fun adventure across many lands and bodies of water. Ya dig?

Oliver R. Jewelson -- 'Live -- was a starving thief, living off of the meager coin he got by fencing the goods he stole from the houses he broke into. A one-time mugger with a penchant for knocking out decent folk and taking whatever they had on them, he got lucky and took a small crystal shard from a corpulent nobleman. He noticed rapidly that when he held the shard just so, he could walk up behind just about anyone and K.O. them without drawing any attention.

He rapidly evolved from mugging to burglary, figuring sneaking in and taking the good stuff was easier than risking accidentally clubbing some tough guy and getting his face beat in. Unfortunately, 'Live tried to shoot the moon and steal directly from the Royal Family. They had defenses his talents couldn't penetrate, and he woke up to find himself without the shard and with a long stay at the dungeon.

Then, suddenly, he received an unusual pardon: a commission. Go with these couple of other locals, and help them find more of the shards. He would be given his shard back -- it seemed that no one else could use it with quite the proficiency that 'Live did -- but all of his traveling companions would be acutely aware of his history and have strict instructions to take him out (and take his shard) if he got out of hand.

He's not stupid -- he knows that, at the absolute minimum, if they get their country's gem back together, the economy will improve. Even if he ends up back on the street, he'll have better targets for his skills. His dedication to the quest might not be as focused has the others', and he is easily distracted by targets of opportunity, but he is determined to see his country restored to its former glory.

This sounds like a sweet concept. I've really wanted to join in on some epic adventure RP. If you're still looking for people, I'm totally interested.

@Damon, Everblight, Bainshie: Great to hear!

@Everyone interested: I'll do my best to get up a rough OOC today/tonight then, though I'd rather know if people want a ton of details in terms of cities and continents etc. Or if I should leave the locations more free form and focus on the back story dealing with magic. Input totally desired, as I'd hate to spend time on things you don't need as much as others. :3

As far as I'm concerned, give us very rough details on the locations, but they're actually less important to the story than the central theme AFAICT.

Alright. *nods nods* Locations probably won't be as key as far as the magic, but I'll try to get up a general idea for landscapes and all.

Heads up to anyone still interested, we're gearing up to start soon, so you best get a CS in ASAP.

While you can join later down the line, it won't be necessarily easy. Just sayin'~
