I'm just craving a 1x1 RP, I'm a female and like to play female character. I'm willing to do MxF and FxF. I'm also fine with 18+ and adult themes, but try to keep it as progression to the overall plot and not overdo it.
I'm kind of craving steampunk and high fantasy right now.
I'm open to many ideas so please PM me with yours and we'll see what we can do. :)
I hope this takes off. Too many RWBY RPs start off great in the character making stages and then stop. ><
So if it does start, then I'm in. ^^
It's not going to -be- RWBY, but a world that draws heavy inspiration from it. That being said, despite it being different, you shouldn't have troubles noticing the similarities.
Chroma has three major countries, Vindrell, Tarcanis and Shindan
Vindrell, known for its high amount of resonant deposits in its mountains, is a very mountainous land. Vindrell's thin passes make it extremely defensible but it trades off with making navigating through Vindrell difficult. The high, windswept peaks of Vindrell's mountains are home to many flighted animals such as dragons, griffons and great eagles. Vindrell soldiers are renowned for flying cavalry and beast tamers. They're a rugged people who deal with cold winters and strong winds. Most men of Vindrell are strong mountain climbers or resonant miners; they make up the majority of the Vindrell army and don't back down from a challenge. Vindrell women are home keepers, farmers and run most of the infrastructure in their society. Vindrell are master stonemasons, with their fortresses and cities built into the rock faces of their mountains. Their extremely defensible land makes them nearly impossible to attack, and as such, many refugees and immigrants travel northward to Vindrell. Most, if not all Vindrell people, are master navigators and rarely get lost.
Tarcanis is an arid land, with a large landlocked sea in the center of it. Most Tarcan cities are found on the shores of the Tarcan Sea. The rest of the continent is mostly a sandy wasteland, with the poorest soils and the hottest temperatures of all the great countries. The constant resource struggle within Tarcanis has made for many wars. Since wars are fought under the blistering heat with little supplies, Tarcan warriors are highly celebrated and the successful ones are seen as heroes to the common folk. Tarcanis provides the best foot soldiers of every land, many people from across Chroma travel to Tarcanis to seek out their fighting ways. If one can survive the elements of Tarcanis and still have spirits in him/herself for more, you are believed to be a true warrior. Tarcan people are fair among each other, everybody is allowed to join their military force and seek the way of the warrior. Men and women of Tarcanis both share their duties at home and on the battlefield. Despite having very little for natural strongholds, Tarcanis is still a treacherous land to attack due to its high temperatures and seemingly endless deserts. The open lands allow for scouts to easily spot incoming waves or monsters.
The last major power in Chroma is Shindan. While not a single land mass like Vindrell or Tarcanis, Shindan is a collection of hundreds of islands. Because of this, Shindani people are masterful sailors, and it has lead to the formation of Chroma's most powerful navy. Shindani people train in archery and ranged combat above all other weapons, since they need to fire from ships rather than charge formations. Shindan is a land of discipline and respect, even mortal enemies will meet before a battle and enjoy one last cup of wine. Shindan people never back down, their battles result in the utter destruction of one force or another, sometimes even both. Strategy is a Shindani general's greatest weapon, moving whole fleets to outmaneuver their enemies and knowing when to spring an ambush at the most precise moment. Shindan is far West and out of the way. They don't have many enemies save for the abundant population of pirates that plague their isles. The country is neutral, and since it doesn't border with any other super power in Chroma, it has led them to become technological giants. A Shindani shipwright can build a ship of twice the quality and in half the time. Men of this country are sailors and fishermen, while the women of Shindan form the majority of their military; their smaller forms and lesser weight allow for more crew aboard a single ship, though men are allowed to join the Shindan Navy.
We're brewing up something nice for everybody. But patience is key, we're going through quite a lot of aspects to make an original world with a RWBY foundation.
We're setting up the world itself, geography, star and the moons, countries, society in each country, currency, religion, races, history, mythology, politics, technology and our take on something similar (but not really) to RWBY's dust.
I'll give you a sneak peak.
Chroma a temperate world with a blue giant star as its sun. The star, known as Archon, has a purple-ish tinge to it. At Chroma's distance, the star shines bright enough to appear almost white, with the setting and rising of Archon filling the sky with that bluish-purple tinge. In the summer, Archon blesses the world of Chroma with generous heat and comfortable weather. During the winter, Chroma is unforgiving and the day is limited to only four hours of light. During the spring and autumn seasons of Chroma, the weather is sporadic, offering good weather occasionally, but rapidly switching to stormy conditions without notice. The night sky of Chroma is filled with a vibrant display of aurorae, brilliant colors from bright oranges to brisk teals fill the sky. A large white streak crosses the sky, a view of the galaxy that Chroma resides in. The two moons sit side by side in the sky, locked in a geosynchronous orbit with Chroma. The left moon, Yan, is the larger of the two. It is a creamy white color, with specks of silver weaving across the surface. At the right angle, light from Archon bounces off the silver streaks and shines down onto Chroma. The right moon, Ying, is a shattered object, with chunks of it attributing to a small ring system around Chroma. The main body of Ying sits ever still next to Yan. All of Ying, the main body and all of the fragments, are red and black. During the day, the red rocks are easily spotted. At night, unless shone on by Archon, Ying is all but invisible, appearing as black spots in the rather bright night sky. During the day, some of Ying's fragments can slightly eclipse Archon, making large shadows cast across the land. It is a common belief that having the shadow of Ying pass over you is a week of bad luck. Being born in the shadow of Ying is treated as an ill omen to the people of Chroma, it seen that these people are stricken with consistent bad luck. Likewise, having light from Yan's silver streaks shining on you during the night is a week of good luck. Being born under a ray of Yan's light is a good omen, it is also seen that people born in these glints of light have uncanny good luck throughout their lives.
