Alright, this is gonna be a fantasy RP through and through. Think WoW or something similar. Only thing about that is, there are no guns, they don't exist. But there's everything else, sword, bows, magic, and everything in between. Be imaginative with weapons.
What I'd like this RP to be, is something a little different from what I see most RP's are like. Many RP's focus on the plot and a story-line, and events that progress it. All those things will exist within this RP, however, I don't intend for those to be the focus. Rather, I thoroughly enjoy the interactions between characters, the relationships that develop, etc. So, what I'd like this RP to focus on are those things.
I do have an underlying plot in mind, dealing with an invasion by a foreign nation, however, the details of all that are things I'd like to reveal in the story, over time, and so...I'll say no more about that plot.
The setting is a very simple one, that I'm hoping others will help to flesh out within the RP, so feel free to add to bits of the land's history, so long as it fits with the things already established. At present, the land that this takes place in will simply be known as The Empire. There are cities, towns, and villages spread throughout the country. You can start in any of them, feel free to give them names. The story and settings will develop in game, as we go.
I like very open RP's, and so for this RP, I'm not going to set a limit on the number of people who can join, or anything like that. I just ask that if you do join, you are active.
Now, for the character setup, I'm thinking something a bit like this:
Name:
Gender:
Age:
Race:
Weight:
Height:
Class:
Appearance:
Weapons:
Items:
Skills/Abilities:
Bio:
Many of these are self explanatory, I just ask that you don't make the character an extremely powerful being. Having weaknesses makes the character much more realistic and believable. The only other thing is the Bio. You don't need one at all if you don't want, it's entirely optional. And if you do have a Bio, I'd ask that you do very little in the way of your character's history, as I find it much more enjoyable to find out a characters history through their interactions, and through descriptions of their thoughts, or internal dialogue.
So, other than that, if you've got an questions about this feel free to ask. If you'd like to join, just post a character here and jump into the story, no need for approval from me or anything. I'll post my character now:
Name: Dazac
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Race: Human
Weight:140lbs
Height: 6 feet
Class: Ranger/Rouge
Appearance:

Weapons: Bow and Arrows are his primary weapon and he is quite skilled with them.
Carries three daggers; One large one at his hip, a small one concealed in a boot, and a small one hidden in his sleeve.
Items: Arrows, which he usually has around ten of.
Basic wraps and herbs for curing ailments and cuts.
A flint striker to start fires.
A small hatchet.
Skills/Abilities:
Strengths; Highly athletic, he can run for long periods of time, and is quite fast. He is also able to move very quietly when need be.
He is very good with a bow, even when there are many distractions around him, he is able to shut them all out and focus solely on his target.
He has excellent vision, even at night and can make out even slight movements from others.
Weaknesses; His prowess with blades of any sort leaves a great deal to be desired. He's alright with shorter blades, like daggers and knives, but the bigger the blade gets, the worse his skill with it is.
He wears next to no armor, and so in close confrontation he's likely to be injured.
Bio: Dazac is a man who is often hard to know. He is typically quiet and has a calm, pensive look on his face. He is sometimes prone to burst of anger when backed into a corner, or when his adrenaline is spiking from battle. he speaks little about his past, as if he'd rather just leave it behind.
Beyond all this however, he has a kind heart and often worries about others more than himself. This has lead him to a state of depression however, as he has found few people seem to care about others beyond the few they know, and he has grown exhausted from his efforts to help and worry about others. But, it is in his nature and so he has not stopped. The one thing he longs for is for somebody to care about him, in the same way he cares for others.
Here's the IC RP!
