Introduction
Welcome to the lush and beautiful land of Koros. This land is filled with amazing creatures and ancient ruins. Places to sing and dance with friends and family. Not to mention many ways to move forward.
How will you shape this blossoming world?
Setting: In the beginning there will only be one settlement. It starts in a small village in the middle of a vast forest. Behind it is a massive oak tree known as The Pure One. This tree is the embodiment of their deity.
The Pure One: An enormous tree that sits as a focal point in the forest. It can be seen from anywhere from the forest floor to the mountain peaks. It helps the young find their way home if they get too far from the village. The tree provides a source of fresh water to the village, the animals in the forest, and the trees themselves. The river that flows through the forest comes from the tree. The tree grows many different fruits and vegetables to provide food.
Inside the base of the tree, there is a small pool that the High Priest goes to to communicate with The Pure One in times of crisis for guidance. He or she will also go to this place for the choosing of an apprentice.
The people: The people of the village are simple, focusing on hunting and farming. Simple tools are used, most made of wood while others have stone attachments.
The world: the planet known as Koros will be an open world. Those that are not familiar with this term, think Elder Scrolls, EverQuest, Vanguard, Age of Conan, etc. To add to this, the humans will only know their village and surrounding area. There is nothing beyond the mountains surrounding the forest creating a "flat world" theory among the settlers.
Plot: there is no specific plot. I want this roleplay to be as realistic as possible. Character development based on split second decision making. I have a plan to start, but whatever happens after is up to the players.
What we will be doing: There is a lot about this planet that is unknown. A map will be made and as other humans, cities, creatures, and continents are discovered, the map of the world will fill. The players(you) will be the ones to discover everything. I have everything in that regards worked out already with things being added every day.
