Current As someone else mentioned, the site seems to be in a bit of a lull - slow. I've been here more than 10 years and slow times like this are pretty far and few between.

Maybe if we get a couple more interests, I'll make the OOC after work tomorrow. ^-^
@LordofthePies - Thank you. ^.^ Hoping this gets a bit more interest though! I'm obviously itchy to do something with this setting.
Just for funsies, so you guys can see the banner. =)

@Camey - Magic is like in fantasy, meaning it's supernatural in nature and functions more or less like - uh - magic, haha. There are theories on how it works, but it's never been proven, only used and studied. ^.^ The major theory of the time (which I'll probably work on tonight) is that magical symbols and the like open small dimensional rifts into other planes of existence to allow energy to flow one way in a specific manner.

So actual magic. =3
@Avanhelsing - Sounds definitely possible! Yeah, wrote this before bed and now I'm on my lunch break, haha. I'm going to be making a service battle droid. There is going to be a lore about them and everything, however they are a special breed of combat andriods. They will mix magic and technology.
@Lumiere - Don't see why not! Since I'd be reviewing all the sheets for sensibility, I say go for the idea - so long as this check gains enough interest!

Aeith is a world that is both stuck in the times of the past and in times of the future. It is a place where one can see androids as much as golems, where you can see TV screens in the dead of night as much as one can worry over witches. Malls exist just as much as fighter guilds. Lands can be ruled by governments as much as they can be by kings. Where the possible seems to meet the impossible - of Technology and Magic. Welcome to Aieth.

I plan to run this role-play as a slice of life mixed with adventure. The main hub will likely be a bar/tavern of my making, where powerful and ancient magics keep it at [mostly] peace from the outside world. However myself, or at player's request (process to be determined), there will be various adventures to embark on. I'm likely to include some measure of RPG elements, in the typical sense, such as allowing powers/technology (if one wants) and allowing growth.

The important parts that are coming to mind right now is that Aieth is a Sci-Fi / Fantasy world. Flaming Swords of Power exist just as much as hover cars. The only tweak is that guns do not exist! Instead the more tech-inclined will have energy-infused weapons. Think of a flaming sword, but made and powered via technology, if that's your thing.

Chances are magic will follow a rather simple concept - the more specific the restrictions to a spell or enchantment, the more powerful it can be. Example is a normal fireball might only go 30 feet and dissolve harmlessly, however if you give it a charge time of 10 second, it can be more powerful. Even more so, say you have to be in the presence of a red-headed female - now it's ten times as powerful because of the specific restriction. It's just a silly example though.

Outside of this, I am probably going to look for serious and thoughtful role-players who can contribute to the making of the rest of the world. So, feel free to think of characters that come from any land or nation or kingdom! You can be a traditional warrior from a northern kingdom that keeps to the old traditions or perhaps a knight who employs stealth-based technology in her duties or a spy who uses a dash of magic to extract information - just remember, anything technology can do, so can magic for the most part and visa versa.
@FoxFire - No worries. I've been really busy myself lately, so I'm not being a tyrant about posts. People will post if they're interested. ^-^
Well, characters need their intros anyhow.


That is a good point! Things have calmed down a bit, so I might be able to post next Monday or so. See? I said it wasn't dead. =3
@Queen Tomato - It's not going to die. No matter if people leave or go, I'll be coming back to post anyways. So if people are willing to be patient... it'll still be here.
