Introduction
The hills roll before you, the sun is perched high in the sky without a cloud to be seen and the birds of a nearby forest coo softly as if it was their way of communicating a mutual agreement that it was indeed a fine afternoon.
Although the sight is pretty and beyond amazing, there's something lying within these hills that can only be discovered by the most persistent of travelers. It may be a shoddy path, it may be a traumatizing one, it may even be a rewarding one, however you won't know until you follow the sun above, your only guide in this unknown land.
How will you travel this uncharted land though? Your lonesome? With your trustworthy bow? Your faithful sword? A white steed? With your loyal companion? A stranger you meet along the road? That's for you to decide and for the travelers to learn about as you carve out your own legacy.
Although many things may seem unsure at the moment, you can count on the fact that your choices will matter. They will alter the world around you in ways any mere mortal could never think of. The world is yours, but the legacy you leave behind is up to you. Will you leave a trail wrought with the blood and tears of your competitors, or will you leave a wake of wealth, happiness, and enlightenment as you go from landmark to landmark?
It's time to make the decision now, so strap on your bags, grab your nearest weapon, and set foot into the world which will be molded like clay in the hands of a skilled craftsman.
It's time to "Embark."
--------------------------------------------------
Major things to know before roleplaying (Includes plots, biomes, kingdoms, etc. This list is added to every ten pages and it is here to help new roleplayers get acqauinted.)
Genre -
- Medieval Genre (No willy-nilly magic please. However, things like enchantments, potions, giant beasts, runes, and anything of those sorts is still on the table.)
Biomes -
- Plains (Where every new character begins.)
Kingdoms -
Kingdom of Usiah - The Kingdom of the plains.
Settlements -
Fenwitch - A small settlement that possesses a tavern, an inn, and the few odd homes and farming houses.
Castle of Usiah - Usiah has fifteen meter-high walls and a moat and draw-bridge, like a true medieval-styled castle. Inside there is a pub, a stable, housing, a barber, blacksmiths, and much more. The current king is Your Royal Highness Reynolds.
Races -
Human - Self explanatory.
Relationships -
N/A
Other areas -
N/A
Plots -
N/A
Adventurers -
N/A
Miscellaneous -
N/A
--------------------------------------------------
Rules -
1. A new thread is created each ten pages, so if it's on page ten, I ask that you hold your post until I manage to make the next thread. The reasoning behind this is that I will need to add to the list of plots, biomes, kingdoms, and all that jazz. That way, new joiners should be able to jump in relatively easy, same for people who may have gone on a hiatus.
2. If you are going to introduce a major thing, say a fog that roles over the land, make sure that someone didn't say that it was a clear, sunny day two posts ago.
3. The world is yours to carve out and create, but if I say that it's not allowed, it is final. So, before implementing something that changes the roleplay entirely, ask first.
4. Generic roleplay rules, yada yada
5. If you want to team up with another roleplayer, then at least make the meet-up somewhat realistic. I don't want you two finding each other in a dense forest. Also get their permission first. This of course does not matter if the two roleplayers agree on their characters having previous ties.
6. If I have to warn you multiple times about a rule that has been broken or just unrealistic and crappy roleplaying in general, then you will be kicked from the roleplay. Number of warnings depends on the severity of the offense.
7. Rules may be added at any time.

Magic mainly revolves around enchantments and runes, however magical things can be achieved through, say, equivelent exchange. So if you wanted to raise an army of the dead, you'd have have the souls of many first.
Make sense? |

Name: Rankulas
Age: 23
Race: Runebound Human
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Rankulas is a meaty man, two meters tall and well muscled with tanned skin. His facial features are rough and lumpish from having been bashed in too many times and this overall gives him the appearance of a brute. A canny observer would realize this is not the case, for a fiery intelligence burns in his brown eyes.
But of course, his physique or intelligence aren't what people see first, what they see first is that Rankulas is covered head to toe in runic tattoos, from his bald head to his big feet. While some appear simply as tattoos, others look as if they have been carved into his flesh. These runes are obviously magical, the ones carved into the flesh of his skull glow dimly in the darkness for example, but don't seem to serve any purpose at first. Nor do they take any recognizable form, they are simply a mass of whorls and curving lines that seem to change day by day.
Covering up all this, Rankulas wears a studded leather cuirass as armor over a mixture of baggy cloth and furs that serve as his clothes, and of course slung over his shoulders is his glaive and a rucksack which contains rations, an alchemy kit, and some other odds and ends for camping in the wild.
Quick Description:
Rankulas hails from a distant jungle land filled with dangerous predators. Faced with this, his human ancestors chose to rely heavily on rune magic that would help them survive toe to toe encounters with the beasts as well as metabolize the equally deadly flora and turn them into potions. This comes at a cost, runic magic prevents Rankulas from operating ranged weapons and for practical purposes it's hard to hide in the dark when your head looks like a glow stick.
Weapons:
Iron glaive about 1.8 meters long.
Potion of Swiftness
Potion of Rune skin
Potion of Recuperation
Companion/Pet: None

C.S.
Name: Jax Gerrage
Age: 26
Race: Hueman
Gender: Male
Appearance: Jax lost his hope. This is obvious in his daily routine of mourning and necessities being completed at the slowest pace. He bears many scars along his arms, his chest, his back, the backs of his legs, and a few on his face, mostly in long straight or slightly curved lines. He has faded blue eyes and brown hair shortened in a warrior's style, for keeping under a helmet. Jax is well muscled from his work, though it takes a lot of food to keep that up, which he often doesn't have, but he scavenges where and when possible.
Jax is clad in heavy plate much of the time. When he isn't, he wears a simple garb that any commoner could be wearing, though this one is a bit tattered and ill-patched in places with long cuts here and there. On closer inspection, his plate armor has a thin coating of silver in some places, such as the shoulders, knees, and feet. The armor has long lost any amount of shine from both the elements and the wear and tear of battle.
Quick Description: Warrior who fights magic zombies. Not much more to say, but will explain more about it in the RP.
Weapons: Large two-handed sword, the edges coated in silver. The blade is polished well, and dullness in the edges is often hammered out. The hilt, however, has suffered, and probably needs to be replaced. Jax also carries a dagger, with similar silver edges and a hilt that, while it has seen better days, probably doesn't need to be replaced quite yet.
Companion/Pet: N/A
Other: Has an outline of a deep and tragic backstory, but I have nowhere to put it. I'll just say that it is very, very dangerous to spend much time around him, though from no fault of his own.
Also I hope this is acceptable. I'm not good at medieval stuff. |

Cool characters, both of you are accepted. |

6'5? Are you kidding? Very, very few humans are that tall. |
|
|
Luffy, your characters description attire-wise doesn't match the medieval setting. Not to mention the inhuman descriptions you used. |

(I'm gonna insert a reference to a certain book series. I hope, I hope I hope I hope someone gets it.)
C.S.
Name: Angela. That's it. Though, some people call her Angela the Herbalist.
Age: Pretty freaking old. Angela stopped keeping track of it, and she still looks young (due to great skill at herbalism or due to her race, nobody knows but her,) so her age is pretty much unknown due to this disconnect between her appearance and her actual age.
Race: Grey Folk. The Grey Folk are an ancient race whom inhabited the Plain Kingdom far before the arrival of the other species, however, she looks just like a plain human.
Gender: Female
Appearance: Her head is adorned with long, curly locks of brown hair. She looks very young, as if in her late twenties or early thirties, but she has before stated that looks deceive. She's of relatively short stature, standing at 5'1". Her battle armor is green and black, sometimes with a red cape, which are said to be the colors of witchery. She has piercingly, almost unnaturally blue eyes.
Quick Description: Oftentimes cryptic/speaking in riddles, old, unpredictable, always seems to show up where there's some form of trouble or action, and has quite a few stories to tell. Very adept at herbalism.
Weapons: Hûthvír (A staff sword that she claims to have won in a game of riddles from somewhere she's never shared.) She's said to have a sword named Albitr which could cut through rock, but nobody's ever actually seen her use it.
Companion/Pet: Solembum the Werecat. When not in his werecat form, he's a ragged-looking young boy.
Other: She enjoys knitting, and is fairly agile. Her wit is as sharp as it is odd.
The world would be a better place if everyone took a chill pill. It'd be an even better place if some of them choked on it. |

Name: Roric Beckert
Age: 29
Race: Human
Gender: M
Appearance: Roric is man standing at 5'11, weighing in at 168 pounds. He's a short and stout character, with significant muscle mass in the shoulder area. Roric has a head of brown, disheveled hair that connects with his full, boxed, beard. His eyes are a pale blue but his eyebrows above furrow and take the spotlight away from them. His skin tint is darkened overall, almost leathery to the touch from so long out in the sun. Roric wears a long, black traveling robe which is held together in the midsection by a ornate leather belt. Roric wears short brown trousers underneath along with a loose-fitting white, collared, shirt. He has a pair of leather gloves with runic symbols on them and possesses a knapsack full of goods.
Quick Description: Roric is a stout man who travels the lands researching runes, whether it be their expendability, uses, or applications. He trades his knowledge for coin and is always looking to make the next big discovery.
Weapons: Roric's has a few pairs of gloves all with different runic inscriptions, making his arsenal quite large without taking up much space. However, he also carries a short sword 42cm long. Like his gloves, there are also many runic inscriptions present on this sword.
Companion/Pet: Roric has a brown and white mare that Roric has had for a few years now. While she is not fast, she has incredible endurance and is very loyal. He has also trained her to respond to a few words. One example of this would be when mounting her. He has to say a secret word before she will let him, or anyone else, mount her. Finally, the horse's name is Kataigida.

Okay, so that puts us at four joiners. (Sid, Sandra, LNG, and myself.)
We'll get started tomorrow, however let's talk character ties for now.
The only one I can think of right now for my character is having ties with Insid's character. I'm thinking that my character could've caught wind of a human who has runes inscripted on his body, and Roric being the avid researcher he is, has set out to find him.
Does that sound good so far? |

Bump for any other joiners. |
