Legend of Zelda: Valorbrand Chronicles [Interest Check]

Special Armaments have been added. Though not complete, there are some you can view right now.

All Regional information is finished, including information on culture and military. There may be more to add as time goes on, but it's in a presentable state. Feel free to peruse.

Oh, yeah it's just easier to organize them like that.

Also I had been considering that, it's definitely not a game about word count but there's a lot of in-depth character stories going to be occurring, particularly in regards to Afira, and some key members of the Valorbrands that will be introduced as the story goes on. I do want players to interact with that side a bit too.

I'll put that in some consideration.

EDIT: I have the realization Hybrid Styles may become bigger than expected, so I won't require that to be completed for this RP to be done. They are meant to be highly advanced styles afterall for anyone seeking to master magical and physical arts and combine them.

Good you mentioned Goron barefisted fighting, because somehow I didn't consider that. I'll add something for that, it certainly fits under Unorthodox.

Gerudo in my mind generally have pretty good resistance against the heat overall, but do wear white, thin robes to stave off the heat. The current style listed there is based on acrobatic movement that rarely changes direction and constantly flows and spins.

War fans are interesting though, I do need more misc weapons, but I imagine they'd be a Sacrament catalyst and weapon combo, because it certainly sounds a lot more suitable for Din followers.

I realize there's a lack of spear styles, so I will add one or two of those too.

There'd definitely be something like that, considering Zora's Domain and Lanayru in this is crystal, water, and ice themed. Special weapons and such are still early, rather I've barely started it, so I'll definitely put that down as something you can obtain.

Legend of Zelda: Valorbrand Chronicles [Interest Check]

Catalysts and staves are generally required for sorcery and sacraments yes. For sorcery it's staves or wands, and for sacraments it's religious items or symbols, the common ones being a pendant or talisman you'd hold while casting.

It may be good to note that I plan on having weapons that can be obtained that double as weapon and catalyst.

Oh how fortunate. As not everything is done, do express what areas you want to know more about, and I'll go chip away at those.

Just a note, the overall system might get simplified further, so stayed tuned for that too.

Legend of Zelda: Valorbrand Chronicles [Interest Check]

All Sorceries and Sacraments besides the two forbidden ones are in a complete state. Do say if something is off.

Well, it's been awhile and not even a single expression of interest, so I suppose no one's interested.

I'll still complete a lot of the info though before I move on, so do expect to see this getting bumped for awhile.

Legend of Zelda: Valorbrand Chronicles [Interest Check]

I've added a section on Regional Information, though that isn't done yet, there is substantial information for Hyrule Region, Eldin, and Faron so far.

Premise

In the founding of Hyrule, the Valorbrands were the first Knights, the basis for the Hylian Knights today, many generations later. After some time the group was disbanded when the Hylian Knights were properly established, and since then they have become history. Today in the wake of horrific and grotesque killings and massacres in fringe villages, the "Valorbrands" have been formed once again to investigate these mysterious and violent events.

The group would be formed and led by the knight Afira, a pious lady of noble birth who seeks atonement, and had been allowed to do so by leading the Valorbrands, and she would be given the authority to recruit anyone she required. A recruitment push for it has been put around the Holy See of Hyrule, and the lands beyond, seeking any who wished to join their number, with the only requirement being that they wish to protect Hyrule.

What is this?

This is a work in progress, but there's enough I think I can start showing it to people who might be interested in this. For the record, your character will have to be one that is starting out in some form, and follows the story of the Valorbrands and the coming darkness to take Hyrule. The idea of this AU that is inspired by the Souls series and Elden Ring is to take place before the Hero of Prophecy (Link) would appear. This is a somewhat linear story with some opportunities to explore and quest, such as when arriving to new hub areas, or when the story reaches a point where you are to go and investigate things.

The reason I'm showing it now is not just for finding interested people, but also for a little feedback to help with the viability of the systems, and whether or not they're fun. Also because sometimes I miss some things and find myself needing to fix them in the middle of play, gets kinda awkward.

Anyhow, as of moment, Character Sheet and Mechanics are ready to show, Combat Styles, and Magic Schools are around 70% done. Special Armaments will be coming much later.

To make things more manageable, I am looking at 6 players tops, but I could be convinced to go beyond that. I'm pretty lenient. If you just wanna give feedback, that is also welcome.

Speaking of which, players cannot make new spells and new techniques (at least not at the start). So whatever is available here is all you will get. If you wish to submit new techniques and spells though I can consider them, but do not consider that the norm.
