:thinnking: I will think of a character in the coming days. I already have a few ideas swirling in my head, but I'd like to thoroughly read the history and take a look at the incidents first.

<Snipped quote by Bacon is fluffy>
Magic is an art in which you bend or contradict natural law with your mind, often with the aid of spells, chants, runes, and other arcane paraphernalia. The elves claim that magic was bestowed to them by the gods, who in turn used it to create the world and everything in it. It takes a lot of time and effort to learn magic, compared to the relatively fast return on investment that industry yields. That, and the fact that the use of magic, as well as magical artifacts, tend to distort natural law in its proximity, made it impractical to employ in cities as industial enterprises expanded.
The elves, naturally, shun industry because of their aptitude for magic. Elven culture also suffers from arrogance towards the other races, making them see industry as a very human thing. The dwarves are disgusted by the exchange of quality for quantity that industry often applies. They strive for perfection and praise individual skill, making the automated process of industries seem like a low thing. That said, there are of course individual elves and dwarves who see the benefits of technological progress and industrialization, but as a culture they do not. The orcs never got a chance. The nomad warrior tribes of the orcs were quickly subdued by the modernized human armies, and while some clans still roam the wilderness as bandits and raiders, most orcs find themselves as slaves working the machines of the factories in human cities.
I hope that answers your questions!
ya it does, i like youre thinking. this does seem interesting and a little grim(poor orcs :sadneko). Ill definitely apply to join if and when we get started. <3

The biggest question I have is how does magic function, why it was stamped out so successfully, and why didn't the older more successful races like the dwarves especially...not become even more successful industrialists?
Haha ty I am at work so I can't read things carefully atm <3
About me: I've almost always done group rp, leaning towards big groups. But what put me off in 1 x 1s was the...romance aspect of it. Which I personally would prefer to keep it as something I read as a subplot in my mangos but I'm willing to give it a shot as long as its a sub plot and not important.
I'm a dude. Absolutely no trans/mxm stuff. Ty for understanding.
Depending on the rp, I do like using incarnate but I wouldn't even open it up if my prospective rp partner didn't like using visual aids.
My main focus ideas:
The first is set in the fantasy warhammer series. If you don't know what that is, here's an elevator pitch. You are about to set foot in a genocidal world where demons kill you for fun, demons infect you with the black plague as a peace offering, giant man sized rats who employee chemical warfare that makes mustard gas look like your grandma's perfume and prehistoric lizardmen carrying out millions of years of planning for their great plan(eradicating all non dinosaur lizardmen life).
And in this rp I'd love to play a human with his best bud or childhood friend trying to escape a war between the pox demons and rat men(skaven) for example. Where it goes would be up for discussion if anyone is interested.
Second would be far more casual. If you know what manwha is, then you'll know or have heard about regressors, reincarnation, and cultivators. I'd like to do a tower climbing rp or getting revenge/saving the world in a regressor format.
System is optional.

Awesome, do you have a link or did you mean the site discord
Soupeeeeeeeerrrrrr (is there rooom)
I used to be an avid naruto fan, but I admittedly fell off during the pein arc. I loved the series a lot more back in the beginning and wanted to recapture that feeling again. So for this rp I wanted to revert the power scaling back to the basics and see where it develops afterwards. The reason being summarized in three main points…
1. Ninja were superhuman, Emphasis on HUMAN
So in the zabuza arc we got to witness a lot of what made the series great early on. We learned about chakra being internal energy that can allow normal people to do extraordinary things such as lifting boulders, climbing up walls with no extra tools, and walking on water. It showcased a man who wielded a massive 10 foot sword with one arm and a copy cat ninja who could hypnotize you with a single glance and create a tsunami to sweep you away. However on the flip side, both men despite their superhuman feats…were still very much human. Both needed days to recover from a fight that compared to the later fights in the story, was really low on chakra use. It only took 1 A rank jutsu to put kakashi out of commission when he was spamming mangekyo dojutusus over and over later on.
Another showcase of this human aspect was in how kakashi blocked his giant sword with a kunai. Back then I thought kakashi was so cool for pulling that off, but in retrospect, it’s a small feat compared to monsters like gai. But you gotta remember, Gai came as a result of the overall landscape of naruto and was missing in action for many years. But this moment was important because it showed that a man capable of wildly swinging that blade could not do so when he was tired from using the water prison and clones. Fatigue, a rare thing in most mangos, but it was something kishimoto weaved into his early stories in naruto.
2. THE GREAT CON
The greatest moment Kishi ever pulled off was when naruto and sasuke tricked zabuza with the shadow shuriken jutsu. Compared to the way itachi could wield shuriken and kunai, it may seem like nothing, but to me itachi is the nothing. Oh boy a dime another dozen monster that 1 shots everything? No what made this moment great was the amount of cons that had to be pulled off to make it work.
First was the smoke from naruto’s jutsu. At first I thought it was just some stylistic choice by kishi to give us a visual cue that his jutsu were dispelled. That iconic dust and “pew” whenever a clone popped still resounds clearly in my head nearly 20 years later. However in this moment when clones were popping all over the place, naruto use a transformation jutsu and tossed the fake shadow shuriken to the sauce. This combined with his own smooth moves to pull out his own made the scene extra nice. However just when it seemed like it was all for nought, because zabuza saw through it like an expert would…naruto pops out to toss a knife at his jugular.
The super human that until seemed invincible, lost his cool because a kid tricked him and almost took him out. The amount of work that went into this con was great and it showed just how cool actual ninjas could be.
3. The fact that all the villages were in fact, in a cold war with eachother
Although it was never said, did it need to be? Two opposing side, maybe more, were working against eachother at all times. A simple escort mission turned into an A rank battle for their lives because another village’s ninja were targeting the bridge builder. Now compound this with the fact that Kunoichi were basically being groomed for espionage and infiltration from a young age. Although it didn’t pan out, ino and sakura’s childhood clearly showed them being trained to use their beauty later on in life…something you’d expect a CIA agent to pull off to incriminate a person of interest. And then you add to the fact that Kakashi was probably assassinating people daily when tsunade took over…and you can see that there’s a vast world to explore with the hidden villages that wasn’t touched until sasuke went off the rails in shippunden.
Unless you guys think the raikage or the real sand village kage was just going to turn a cheek from other villages murking his people. xD Hell Danzo, despite not being a super saiyan ninja, was proof that everyone is probably jockeying for king of the hill within their villages and as threats to other nations.
How I’ll handle the three jutsu:
So Tai jutsu will be treated as a mere technical martial art. Taijutsu was relegated to simple being hand to hand combat with the exception of Gai, but it could be so much more. With the addition of chakra, one could pool chakra in this arm’s chakra points and release it all at once in a single punch. Or one could make entire martial arts around flowing chakra through their weapons. Something asuma showed naruto in the time skip, but was short lived cuz he just went back to using the rasengan and kyuubi powers. So with this mind I’d imagine power scaling would go from kicking a guy into the air, to making yourself super buff, to unleashing elemental punch and kicks casually…in general.
Genjutsu is the real problem child that needs attention though. What could have been a great jutsu tree turned into a giant mangekyo sharingan…(obito) or mere illusions. However kabuto showed you can literally affect someone’s biological state of consciousness if the target doesnt notice. Thus I’d expect early genjutsu would have short range and require contact to slowly weave control over their consciousness(making fake noises a schitzo would hear for example). While a medium user would be like kurenai and kabuto would could invade your mind or affect your bodily functions. And the top tier would be a fighter who can affect one person from far away or eliminate entire garrisons by themselves with one genjutsu. I think there’s a lot of potential if people are creative enough, but it would have to be well thought out!
Ninjutsu is ninjutsu..it is the jack of all trades and a master of all. Doesn’t need an reimagining as it was and still is the most iconic fighting style in the series.
I’d like to go further, but I just wanted to gauge interest first and show off my thought process on some things first before thinking about progression and the world building aspect of the rp. This is intended to be an advanced rp, so while a lot of it requires combat…you can do entire missions using stealth alone. The content of the rp will require a lot of set up to make ambushes work such as reconnaissance, gathering intel on the subject, infiltrating cant forget that, and actually executing the plan. Ofcourse at the end of the day it’s up to any potential rp’ers that take interest in this to decide what to do and how far to go…I’m just giving an example of what i’d expect from this narrative/battle rp. <3 If anyone gives a hoot, I’ll continue on with the development of this idea(progression ideas, world building, starting characters etc)!
