So this will be my first attempt at creating an rp here. And I need help. I'm still developing the story, but as the gm, I have no idea how to navigate and control battle. And while I don't anticipate pvp, I do very much hope for a few battles. Any advice or suggestions, please pm me, again this is a wip so bear with me.
Waeldeshore ((A medieval-fantasy roleplay))
Silver Lilly Isle used to be quite a beautiful place. Named for the rare flower that blooms here, the isle is made mostly of marshland and lush forests. It was once home to powerful mages and wealthy lords, with a total population of about 4000. War claimed most of its soil, leaving the isle in ruins. Since then, use of the weave has been drastically limited.
Bordering the northern edge are the Grey Scale Mountains, it's peaks nearly reaching the clouds. The dangerous terrain isn’t the only thing to ward off travelers. The Grey Dragons lurk within its caves, attacking any who dare climb the spires. There are only two left after war scorched the island, but they remain as deadly as ever. The mountain tops platea to what is known as ‘Death’s Peak’, the cliff slamming against the shore line as a rigid line between land and sea.
As the mountain melts into the land, trees spread their roots and branches, expanding across most of the isle. A vast mix of forest and marshland keep the mountains dangers from those of the island.
Waeldeshore is a port town, sitting at the southeast end of the island, and one of the few places that did not crumble within the war’s wake. Responsible for nearly all of traded goods on the island, Waeldeshore actually became quite wealthy in the years following. Lord-Marshal Weyland oversees the town and all of it’s inhabitants. The town makes up most of the island’s population, especially now after the war. Marked by its cobblestone streets, cluster of buildings, and boisterous crowds, it separates itself from the rest of the isle as a much more industrious setting.
Basic plot-
Strange things have been happening in town. People suddenly disappearing, demons popping up, extreme weather changes, etc. Some occurrences have been subtle, noticeable only to a few, while others raised concern of even the Lord-Marshal and his council who suspect it all to be the work of a powerful mage named Jeltheor. The Lord Marshal has ordered extra guards on duty, extra patrols throughout the town, even a curfew was issued, encouraging all to stay indoors after sundown. But there are whispers of another war erupting. Rumors of an army gathering, with one intention - to set Waeldeshore aflame.
In the name of self preservation or as an act to save the town, your character will battle the demons set free by Jeltheor. Can you save Waeldeshore? Can you stay alive?
Your character can be a native of the island or a traveler to the town. Mages are absolutely allowed, but understand that creating a mage will have consequences as natives are very weary of the craft.
