THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

I looked at the IC and this; I saw you mentioned DnD in both, so I was wondering - will the combat take place though a DnD dice-rolling combat system or through writing out the combat?

@Zapdos

Not really. I might roll a dice for the odd thing, but for the most part, we will just be writing out the combat, puzzles, traps etc.

I'll start reading over and accepting characters tomorrow or Friday when I have more time, but I will pop on periodically to answer any questions.

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

The War for Mytheria

The Ilian Empire is on the brink of turmoil. Never in all the 12 centuries of its existence, since Ileandra the Great united the continent, has it faced such a threat. Before now, the three branches of power - The Church of The Source, The Democratic Houses of The Commons and The Nobles, and the Divine Seat of Ileandra's Bloodline - have remained steadfast through the sparse handful of civil wars. The Adventurers Guild and its hundreds of adventurers, those gifted with the source crystal, have managed and maintained caves, nests and dungeons that spew forth all manner of dark creatures. The Empire's Army and Navy have repelled pirates and invasions from over the Eternal Sea. Peace and prosperity, culture, magic and science continue to flower, pushing the many peoples of The Empire ever forward through time. But now...

Along the northeastern border of the continent, over Dragonclaw Delta and the shores of Eretia, an invasion of the mightiest order has swept through the defenses and devastated the cities in the northeast. Armies of skeletons, zombies march along the ground, flanked by lizard cavalry. And the skies are commandeered by Wyvern beast riders. Lich champion generals, each capable of taking on a small raid parties of adventurers on their own. These are the forces of a powerful undead sorceror known only as The Witch Queen.

The merchant city of Johsiria has fallen, along with Eredge and Helecarsus. Refugees flee west in terror. All over The Empire, the next, caves and burrows to the deep are alive and teeming with orcs, goblins and critters, The Witch Queen's magical presence waking up all with evil in their heart. The Adventurers Guild is overrun with more jobs than it's adventurers can handle. Worst of all, the first counterattack of The Empire was destoryed in horrific fashion. Twenty thousand soldiers wiped out. Notable generals of the Empire lost. Half of the Council of Heroes gone. And all that died only rise again to serve The Witch Queen.

Capitol City has become desperate. After much deliberation in the halls and forums of the powerful, they have decided to spend an inordinant amount of Source, the very fabric of existence, to invoke The Summoning. They have decided that only Heroes from another world can save Mytheria.

That is where your characters come in.

Your characters will be regular humans in our world, who, when dragged to Mytheria via The Summoning, will have enhanced abilities that fall under the usual DnD classifications (Fighter, Ranger, Mage, Healer etc.) and they will not be able to return home until they have dealt with the threat. They will not be super powerful right away though, and will need time and experience to hone their new-found skills. Can they figure out how to kill this seemingly invincible witch who has bested great heroes and armies already? Will they have what it takes to become a team, fight as one, and execute the impossible?

The Rules

1. Guild rules apply
2. Minimum of one post per week
3. Respect eachother
4. Character applications must be posted in OOC and wait to be accepted.
5. Everyone can post 2 or 3 posts per round (a round being over when everyone has gotten a word in.) This limit is for the benefit of slower posters, so that they don't get left behind. A round will usually end when I post to push the story along.

Character sheets

(Bear in mind that skills and abilities will grow over the course of the RP, due to plot based level ups so if I ask you to tone down your skills, it's only to allow for the growth of your character.)

Character applications will not be first come first serve. They will be subject to acceptance, so take your time and make your best CS. Any questions, feel free to ask.

I expect the IC to begin on Sunday or Monday, but we can extend to later next week if we need to.

@Teyao & @Inertia Glad to see your faces guys!

I'll have an official OOC up within the next 24 hrs. The IC will begin either Sunday or Monday. Players will be required to post once a week. CS applications can go in the OOC and once accepted, I will move them into the Character section.

Thanks for for your interest everyone. I'll post a link to the OOC here once it's done. And anyone accepted will get a link to the discord.

@Calle Yeah, the main characters have all been summoned from a regular world like ours, so they would need to be human.

Depending on the level of interest, I might be open to one of our players playing a character who is actually from Mytheria and they would have more options on the race of their character. But ideally, we need a party of regular summoned humans from a normal planet earth, and by virtue of The Summoning, have abilities and powers that could be developed enough for them to save Mytheria.

@Saiyan No, you don't have to have played DnD before. You might find the setting easier to navigate if you're at least familiar with the concept though.

@Zool Good to see you Zool. Glad to have you aboard.

@Indrajita etc does mean different classes, yes.

Welcome to Mytheria

The premise is that The Empire, the last bastion of freedom, culture and prosperity for all, is under attack by a powerful witch. This witch has coralled all the dark forces of the world under her command and is making an attempt to destroy all that is good. And so, with armies and heroes falling left and right, the Emperor has called for The Summoning.

That is where your characters come in.

Your characters will be regular humans in our world, who, when dragged to Mytheria via The Summoning, will have enhanced abilities that fall under the usual DnD classifications (Fighter, Ranger, Mage, Healer etc.) and they will not be able to return home until they have dealt with the threat. They will not be super powerful right away though, and will need time and experience to hone their new-found skills. Can they figure out how to kill this seemingly invincible witch who has bested great heroes and armies already? Will they have what it takes to become a team, fight as one, and execute the impossible?

The Empire is a multiracial homeland where live humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes and more.

The party of characters will have to fight, think and travel to overcome the obstacles, often helping others along the way or seeking aid themselves. Dungeon crawling for gear or doing odd jobs for the money to buy gear will be essential too.

Anyone interested?
