You ever take a look at the forum board, not see anything of ready interest, and decide to just go about your day? Figured I'd see if a new game was interesting, nope, ah well.

Bio
I already did an earlier introduction, but this is something one could always see, so let's roll.
Serene is the pen name that I use over on my old G+ account, which if you're able to find the account before the site shuts down, is Serene Selphia, but no fancy url, lol. But to those I'm close enough to, my nickname is Chris, and if I ask you to not use it, its nothing personal, I'm just not ready for that level of friendliness. That isn't to say I'm not a friendly person, just that I can be a bit professional when it comes to stuff. I've been rping since like...2011 I think? If I could find the Minecraft rp forums I started on(yes those were a thing, it was actually full of good rpers, but all good things come to an end of course), I'd have a precise date.
I roleplay a lot of things, well, that was the old system. About four years back, I settled down in a roleplay community on G+ called Temple of Glory, and began to stick to just one character who I kept working on, using other characters as I felt the need. That was my current primary character's father, a character I'll call the Professor for now, as I intend to post a version of his character sheet later. Probably when doing so wouldn't spoil what became of him in a storyline. Anyway, after a point I burned out as him, and switched focus to his daughter, who I use primarily in the old roleplay hub I come from. The Good Doctor, and here, no spoilers, mostly because ahaha, I'm shy about that.
I love a lot of series, but my heart goes out mainly to Rune Factory, Sonic, Mega Man, Metroid, Mario, Pokemon, and Duel Monsters. Especially Rune Factory and Sonic, though lately I've fostered a love for the Nasuverse, Fate Grand Order is a fun time. I love to read a variety of things, and I'm always online unless sleeping, so feel free to drop me a line if you need it. While I'm relatively new to the site here, I'm an rp veteran, and a skilled writer, as you'll see whenever I post the Doctor's current profile.
Ah right, more on me. I'm a college senior presently, I just had my capstone for my history degree wrapped up, and I'm proud of my progress. While I am a loner by nature(I mean my writing often keeps me trapped in my room to meet paper deadlines), I'm still a sociable person, and if you can't reach me here, my Discord is Serene Selphia#1064. So I suppose that's a bit of a spoiler, but to who, I won't say. Just be forewarned, if you ask me about a character of mine, there's a risk I'll write a lot, so make sure you're totally fine with that.
In terms of roleplay, while I do mainly fantasy/science-fiction, I can roll with just about anything(as far as I know), but if I tell you its not working for me, don't take it personally. I'm a fairly detailed writer, and in terms of style, I'm good with both combat and non-combat related narratives, I mean, my current main was built for combat initially, whereas her father is more the sociable type. The most detailed things tend to when I describe the world around, or when writing profiles for characters I adore. Basically, if I'm in tune or really love something, you could get a lot. I once wrote about twenty pages on a google doc in two hours because I loved it so much. Weird flex sure, but you can understand it. I don't look for much in rp partners, so long as you can write me enough that I understand either what you're doing, or what's going on, I'm usually good. I'll generally drop a line if I need more information.
I love learning, so if you ask me about something, and I don't have an answer, I'll gladly take the time to do at least a basic amount of research. And if you're ever stumped for ideas, drop me a line, I'm always glad to help fellow veterans or the newer folk. Heck, at one point for a friend's group I wrote an entire(albeit unused) document full of random plot ideas for the group drawn from throughout film and video games. Point is, if you need someone to talk to, unless I'm in a bad mood, or its a bad time(aka I'm about to go to bed, or in class), I'm always up for at least a quick chat. I do take commissions, so if you want a fanfiction written, give me a holler, or if you just want a custom story about a character of mine, or just ask for them to give their input on something in a non-serious setting. Still debating what to set prices for, or if I work totally free...I mean I should charge something, but anyways, wew, talk about a ramble, eh?
Oh, that was right, he wasn't one of the guild's population, and to one unaware of the whole...messaging system, it would look pretty weird. Indiana didn't speak for a moment, but he did compose himself, slipping his clawed hands into the pockets of his traveling jacket, before finally responding to what Astra said. "The hunting party ran into a Silver Wolf, odds are they're currently getting mauled, handling it, or running for their lives. They sent me a message, that's what the funny actions were. Sorry."
Unless Astra remarked further on what he had said regarding the whole message system, Indy kept silent till the workshop was reached. He did, however, take in the sights prior, offering polite nods to those he passed. He had to admit, this place was already a lot livelier than he had expected, and with such a large workforce...anything was possible. That said, once at the workshop, he'd begun examining it, finding even a few things that he, as a lower level Artificer compared to the one that was currently missing, hadn't yet unlocked to work with. It excited him, shown by a few remarks under his breath that indicated intense joy, realizing just what they could do. Unfortunately, he didn't get much time, realizing Astra was leaving him behind. This prompted him to hurry after, a light grin on his dragonic face, thinking of all that they could do. Why, the thought of building a magical airship came to mind...they had the resources probably, it would just require figuring out how to put it all together. He hurried onto the elevator platform, feeling it creak just a tad under his weight, before it steadied. He looked around again, marveling at what he saw.
"I suppose I do have a fair number of questions. Regarding the ores, do you know if the prior Artificer had done any work with them? Could any be harnessed as a fuel source?" He was glad that as a dragonkin, he had better eyesight than say, a human based model. Still, he wished he'd brought along the goggles of night vision, or a potion for it. Note to self: Make more goggles, they'll come in handy later. "Also, do we have any gunpowder in storage? Or boom sticks I can remove the powder from? Need it for an idea." That was another idea that he felt in his mind, the thought of trying to make a rudimentary portable cannon. They were around the tech level already...factor in magic, then China having invented gunpowder long ago...Granted, he had no idea if Astra knew what he meant by gunpowder. So much to do, so much to see. "Also...any chance we know if there's not say, a giant rock monster or demon boss whose lair is being dug into?" That was another thing to worry about, a lot of magical ore...it could be possible a boss slept nearby, which concerned him more than what the crew on the surface with the wolf were in the middle of. They at least could run, or possibly get help. If a cave in happened...him and Astra and anyone else, short of a miracle or good timing, were finished. That made him shudder involuntarily...and made him think of Meg. Hopefully she was doing much better, right?
Margaret
Meg whistled to herself just a tad as she pocketed the second half of the payment for the completed item, waving good bye as she turned away from the actor's understudy who had been waiting, a spring in a step. The gold would be a good step closer to paying for more of Indy's various researches, and perhaps even enough to improve their living quarters. And if there was enough left over...she could send the extra cash home to her family, or even pay for transporting one of her sisters up to the city. Indiana wouldn't mind a second big sister, she was sure of it! Or perhaps a little sister...
Come to think of it, where was Indy? She checked, and well, he wasn't in the guild, based on what she'd seen. She pulled out the Sending Stone he'd given her incase they were a distance apart, and tested its locate function. After a few moments...she put it to her ear, and got...static. Checking the stone again showed that... "Out of range? What...I hope he's okay." She was worried, that wasn't normal. It only happened if he was near a boss, too far away, inside another guild base, or...deep underground. Hopefully it was fine. Meg thought about it for a long moment, and sighed to herself, the elf walking down the corridors, past the quest board for the guild, down another corridor, and into her quarters she shared with Indy. She'd at least do something while she waited for him to come back, and she'd try calling again in an hour. Hopefully he hadn't forgotten the stone somewhere, that was another possible issue. Sitting down on her own bed, she pulled out her harp, and began to practice with it quietly, occasionally having to retune the strings. It wasn't exciting but...it beat being worried, right?
@AThousandCurses What's the elemental affinity you wanted to go for? @OtomostheCrazy Well, I'm quite glad I piqued your interest! Do you already have something in mind, or are you waiting to see what others post?
@AThousandCurses Anyone in Rune Factory can use magic, its just a matter of whether they put the effort forward to train, or if they have magical reserves greater than the average person. So you want to do a doppleganger? Also, you should make an introduction post in the introduce yourself tab when you can.
Wonderful, really. Do either of you have ideas for what you might want to make character wise? Never hurts to have an actual idea before the IC goes up, y'know.
"Mom, I'd talk more, but I have to go. Need to be early to class, you know how it is. Give dad a hug for me, alright?" After the customary chatter on the end, Josephine sighed softly, a smile gracing her lips. "Love you too Mom, I'll see you this weekend." And with that, she hung up, slipping the flip phone away on her person, somehow. Thirty minutes. She checked herself. Everything was accounted for. Perfect. Eyes flicked around her room, before grabbing the only thing she took to class, a leather bound binder type item, which contained a slot for papers, a notepad of paper that was eight inches by eleven, and of course, a pen. And like that, she was out the door, but not before grabbing a water bottle on the way. Feet hurried down the corridor, her short height making it easier to duck and weave around people, avoiding them with relative ease. But it wasn't five minutes later before she was inside the classroom, moving to the back, taking her seat in the corner furthermost from the front and exits. Call it edge or whatever, but she wanted to be alone for the moment. At least until others filtered in.
Once seated, she opened her bottle of water, and took a single sip, before closing it, wiping her lips with her sleeve, placing it down with a silent impact. She opened her binder, and pulled her pen out, hitting the end that pushed the tip out, beginning to sketch something on a free page of paper. Hopefully she wouldn't get interrupted. It wasn't until the teacher came in, that she glanced up, pausing her sketch. Seemed most of the others had filtered in already, making her smile under her breath. This would be interesting, one way or another...
//Not my best, but posts after will be better, hopefully.
Hello, and welcome to the official interest check for Tales from Frontier Village, a semi-sandbox roleplay set within the world of Rune Factory! I’m your host and GM, DocRock, and let’s get into things!
As far as I’m aware, this is the first proper attempt at a Rune Factory fandom tale, and honestly? That doesn’t surprise me due to its nicheness. However, dear reader, don’t fret, you don’t need to know anything about the series to join this tale. As we won’t be delving into some grand adventure of heroism and light vs. darkness, no, this tale will be much more down to earth, and grounded in realism. While there will be chances for heroics, the story won’t end with some great evil being vanquished, because frankly? That’s just not how the series works. Sure, you can save the world, but afterwards? It's back to daily life.
So without further ado, let’s introduce our setting, shall we?
The Continent of Adonis is a rather sizeable one, with climates ranging from the cold arctic and polar pine forests of the Sechs Territory, to the more mild climates found within the majority of the Kingdom of Norad. Along the border of the Sechs Empire and the Kingdom of Norad, a war spanning decades, if not centuries, was waged, between the two powers, intensifying over the past few decades after an attempt to invade Norad via the border town Kardia was thwarted by the efforts of the town hero and the God of Life Terrable’s intervention. With the defeat of the Mad Emperor Ethelbert at the Battle of the Floating Empire near Selphia Village five years ago, peace has settled over both nations, with the Sechs Empire reforming itself into a republic, and the Kingdom of Norad reaching new heights. And yet, even with peace after so many bloodsoaked battles and skirmishes, the world is still dangerous.
A magical civilization that relies on their knowledge of Rune and its applications to advance society, but also boasts a rather impressive tech base for a fantasy world. The four villages of Kardia, Alvanca, Sharance, and Selphia have been hotbeds over the past few decades of Divine Dragon related activity. Despite these remote towns being rather active, the capital, Norad Castletown, has known relative peace. Trade between the various settlements occurs regularly, with Dragon Knights helping to safeguard areas of import, and Earthmates traveling from area to area to assist as needed. It’s not uncommon for monster hot spots to spring up that require proper dealing with.
The former bloodthirsty Sechs Empire, the Republic has been busy in the intervening five years since the death of their former Emperor and the end of his reign of terror and genocide against the Earthmates, rebuilding their wartorn nation. Once controlling most of the world, after the wars ended, they retreated inwards, allowing colonies and other areas to fend for themselves, and repairs began. It was them who proposed the Golden Road be restored as a means of trade, as much of the Sechs lands are inhospitable to most, sans those committed to survival, or poor for farming. A society that was more pseudo-science that actually worked than their magical neighbors, the Sechs Republic at their height were able to create massive floating island fortresses, and were the first to discover how to create Artifical Runemons, as well as discover how to fuse man and Runemon together(to great failure during the Selphia Conflict). While rumors persist that various dirty science is still being performed in remote areas, the landscape knows relative peace. Key word being relative.
Frontier Village: A stop on the Norad-Sechs Golden Road, that often acts as the last point before the Norad side of the border. Contains the basic qualities needed for a village, but doesn't stand out that much otherwise. Has a few dungeons nearby, and a few folks who ran out of money and couldn't keep traveling, so they settled in here. Or have their reasons for staying here. Even with the world at peace, this town’s status can make things...tense.
That’s pretty straight-forward, isn’t it? Either you’re a long or short term resident, or you’re just passing through on your way to the border, or deeper in. Plenty of room for mystery, fun, and adventure. Now I’ll admit, this isn’t the first RF themed narrative to deal with border towns(just look at Rune Factory 1 and 4), but I’ll be honest, that’s because it's something familiar to work with. Everyone has their secrets, their backstories, and that’s to be the point of the narrative. Sure, there will be larger GM planned and player participated backdrop stories, but this is a tale of village life. Further details, such as the first overarching storyline, will be on the actual roleplay post OOC.
Now I’m sure you’re wondering “what can I do as a character?” And well, just about anything is possible within the verse, and a link below leads to the World of Rune Factory Wiki, which does a decent job of explaining stuff regarding overall world details, if you absolutely want to dig into deeper stuff.
That said, here’s a quick list of the races you can be, with a blurb about them. Restricted/forbidden races will be noted, as well as the why. I know, why say anything is possible, but then restrict stuff? There’s a fair reason, I promise. I’ll probably come up with some custom races to fill out the usable races.
Humans: The default race option. Just your normal, average human. Originate from the Norad section of Adonis, seemingly. Can handle a variety of climates, but don’t really specialize in anything.
Elves: Hailing from a forested island nation, the elves are a mysterious race of musicians and otherwise magical people. Not a lot is known on them, however. If you wanna make a town bard or something, this is a fair option. They’re human sized, so if you really want, I mean, characters from Hyrule work as FCs. Also have a special connection to monsters.
Dwarves: People of the earth, who are deft and skilled with the forge. Also good with just about any heavy labor action. Human sized, just have a few minor details that differ from humans. Generally live in clans, but singular members exist.
Dark Elves: A rarer breed of elf, who are of course, darker skinned. While their status in Elven society is unknown, some are hired by human families as staff.
Merpeople: Not unheard of, just really rare. So far only females have been shown. Have a tail when in water or during rainy weather, but can walk fine if so.
Doppelgangers: A race of shapeshifters, who take on the form of other races. Rumored to be a byproduct of Sechs Empire experimentation, but this is unclear. A relatively recent discovered race.
Kitsune: A race from the eastern nation, who have fox traits. Little is known about them.
Restricted Races: These are races which while possibly playable, will have extra scrutiny and thought with regards to a player choosing to roleplay as them.
Earthmates: The player characters of most games. They’re kinda weak at this point, but some are decently strong. Due to the annihilation campaign during the Sechs-Norad war by the Sechs Empire, they’re pretty rare. If you do one, I’m going to be very careful, and you may not get approved, so make it count, and give me a good reason to okay them. Don’t want folks stealing the show, if that makes sense.
Magically Inclined People: Witches, wizards, magicians, spirit mediums, those kinds of folks who might be human or characters with a high aptitude of magic. You can be one, but a very solid reason is needed, and those who practice light magic or magic for good are more likely to get okayed. If you do a villain or destruction based magic user, you may be asked to play an arc role.
Half-Monsters: Those who can turn into a Runemon under certain conditions. Restricted due to the lack of information on them, but if you write a really good one, I may allow it. If you do, I might have you keep their monster form a secret, for plot reasons. Like Raven who is basically a phoenix.
Ghosts: Special conditions, if you’re going to play one, please DM me or Jerkchicken.
Forbidden/Extremely Restricted Races:These guys are completely off limits as something to be played as, if they appear, they will be NPC only.
Divine Dragons: The Gods of the world. Should be self-evident. There will be none present in the narrative, unless plot requires one to come visit. That isn’t to say one couldn’t be an infant Divine Dragon...but that’s also a special case.
Arch-Dragons: Found only in the Fenith Sea so unless a character references them in their backstory, won’t appear.
Rune Kaiju: No being a giant Rune monster that can wipe out life.
Guardians: A special case, since there’s no Divine Dragon here.

I already did an earlier introduction, but this is something one could always see, so let's roll.
Serene is the pen name that I use over on my old G+ account, which if you're able to find the account before the site shuts down, is Serene Selphia, but no fancy url, lol.

If I could find the Minecraft rp forums I started on(yes those were a thing, it was actually full of good rpers, but all good things come to an end of course), I'd have a precise date.
I roleplay a lot of things, well, that was the old system. About four years back, I settled down in a roleplay community on G+ called Temple of Glory, and began to stick to just one character who I kept working on, using other characters as I felt the need. That was my current primary character's father, a character I'll call the Professor for now, as I intend to post a version of his character sheet later. Probably when doing so wouldn't spoil what became of him in a storyline. Anyway, after a point I burned out as him, and switched focus to his daughter, who I use primarily in the old roleplay hub I come from. The Good Doctor, and here, no spoilers, mostly because ahaha, I'm shy about that.
I love a lot of series, but my heart goes out mainly to Rune Factory, Sonic, Mega Man, Metroid, Mario, Pokemon, and Duel Monsters. Especially Rune Factory and Sonic, though lately I've fostered a love for the Nasuverse, Fate Grand Order is a fun time. I love to read a variety of things, and I'm always online unless sleeping, so feel free to drop me a line if you need it. While I'm relatively new to the site here, I'm an rp veteran, and a skilled writer, as you'll see whenever I post the Doctor's current profile.
Ah right, more on me. I'm a college senior presently, I just had my capstone for my history degree wrapped up, and I'm proud of my progress. While I am a loner by nature(I mean my writing often keeps me trapped in my room to meet paper deadlines), I'm still a sociable person, and if you can't reach me here, my Discord is Serene Selphia#1064. So I suppose that's a bit of a spoiler, but to who, I won't say. Just be forewarned, if you ask me about a character of mine, there's a risk I'll write a lot, so make sure you're totally fine with that.
In terms of roleplay, while I do mainly fantasy/science-fiction, I can roll with just about anything(as far as I know), but if I tell you its not working for me, don't take it personally. I'm a fairly detailed writer, and in terms of style, I'm good with both combat and non-combat related narratives, I mean, my current main was built for combat initially, whereas her father is more the sociable type. The most detailed things tend to when I describe the world around, or when writing profiles for characters I adore. Basically, if I'm in tune or really love something, you could get a lot. I once wrote about twenty pages on a google doc in two hours because I loved it so much. Weird flex sure, but you can understand it. I don't look for much in rp partners, so long as you can write me enough that I understand either what you're doing, or what's going on, I'm usually good. I'll generally drop a line if I need more information.
I love learning, so if you ask me about something, and I don't have an answer, I'll gladly take the time to do at least a basic amount of research. And if you're ever stumped for ideas, drop me a line, I'm always glad to help fellow veterans or the newer folk. Heck, at one point for a friend's group I wrote an entire(albeit unused) document full of random plot ideas for the group drawn from throughout film and video games. Point is, if you need someone to talk to, unless I'm in a bad mood, or its a bad time(aka I'm about to go to bed, or in class), I'm always up for at least a quick chat. I do take commissions, so if you want a fanfiction written, give me a holler, or if you just want a custom story about a character of mine, or just ask for them to give their input on something in a non-serious setting. Still debating what to set prices for, or if I work totally free...I mean I should charge something, but anyways, wew, talk about a ramble, eh?
Anyways, that's about it. I'll probably rewrite this as needed.
Restating ways to reach me as needed!

<div style="white-space:pre-wrap;">I already did an earlier introduction, but this is something one could always see, so let's roll.<br><br>Serene is the pen name that I use over on my old G+ account, which if you're able to find the account before the site shuts down, is Serene Selphia, but no fancy url, lol. But to those I'm close enough to, my nickname is Chris, and if I ask you to not use it, its nothing personal, I'm just not ready for that level of friendliness. That isn't to say I'm not a friendly person, just that I can be a bit professional when it comes to stuff. I've been rping since like...2011 I think? If I could find the Minecraft rp forums I started on(yes those were a thing, it was actually full of good rpers, but all good things come to an end of course), I'd have a precise date.<br><br>I roleplay a lot of things, well, that was the old system. About four years back, I settled down in a roleplay community on G+ called Temple of Glory, and began to stick to just one character who I kept working on, using other characters as I felt the need. That was my current primary character's father, a character I'll call the Professor for now, as I intend to post a version of his character sheet later. Probably when doing so wouldn't spoil what became of him in a storyline. Anyway, after a point I burned out as him, and switched focus to his daughter, who I use primarily in the old roleplay hub I come from. The Good Doctor, and here, no spoilers, mostly because ahaha, I'm shy about that.<br><br>I love a lot of series, but my heart goes out mainly to Rune Factory, Sonic, Mega Man, Metroid, Mario, Pokemon, and Duel Monsters.
