Reflections...Fantasy rp OOC

[Spiritisshining]

It's basically a story about good vs bad, nature vs man sort of...a fantasy story in a fantasy world.

A chemical released by a plant or in the air is altering the mind of humans and animals/creatures. It is causing them to be violent, turning them into monsters. Through out all of this man kind has managed to survive, with specially trained forces and bounty hunters. Man and other races have learned to harness energy in its many forms. This has caused them to let's say, light up a saber with electricity or make bows of arrows of light.

When I say other races, I am referring to any humanoid creature. Meaning elves, dwarves, a reptile-man race, etc.

Now this takes place in 2600 AS, after shadow. We're on an earth like world with earth like creatures, the only difference is some of these creatures have gone haywire. They've become no longer animal or human any longer. Something inside these few creatures such has genes etc. are susceptible to this chemical that is turning them into monsters. Sad but true in the story.

Some spots in the world are places where these monsters gather together. If wanted, I could make a map, but I don't think a map would cover all of this world. So...

This world is open as in you can make up a town or village you've come from, or city. The world is not very urban, but it's more spaced out. For instance my character comes from Newberg, a town that sits in the valley of twin mountains.

One thing is for certain: We are all to meet up coincidentally at a sanctuary ruin. I'll add more to this if you're interested, answer questions, etc.



Picture Description:

Warriors or warriors in training...in an old abandoned sanctuary, where there seems to be a bird bath still in use. A bird flies there, taking a bath, and does not move as she is about to touch it. Is it a sign? The bird flies off in this peaceful scene and she watches it glide high into the sky, just then something is about to approach...your character...or monsters...

Questions asked and answered:

What is the general plot?

The general plot is basically everyone has their own agenda, and we meet up with each other to help one another complete our goals. Eventually I want our plots to come together, or relate to one another. When we join as a party, we defeat monsters and travel the land, also maybe search for a fabled land or cure? This might make the roleplay become epic...if you guys want it to be. I can change it though.

Can you make your own race? Humanoid is the key term here

Yes you can make your own race if you want. Firearms is limited, nothing too fancy or technological as this is not some steam punk story. Not really any urban areas with technology, etc. This is not a wrold like Final Fantasy 7.

Is this a medieval fantasy?

This is not a medieval fantasy, but it's set in a world much like medieval times.

What is the current issue of the land?

The current issue with the land is that people and animals are being affected by this chemical that is turning them into evil monsters, and the question is why? What can we do to stop this? Or...do we just go on and keep exterminating them when they become monsters and continue on this life style?

Name: Balrei Coalrunner
Age: 110
Gender: Male
Occupation: Axeman, Warrior
Race: Dwarf
Physical Appearance:
Personality: A gruff, angry dwarf who enjoys booze as much as the next, Balrei is prideful in his race, and brave when it comes to combat. He will hardly ever back down to a challenge. During his off times, he enjoys joking with friends, drinking heavily and sleeping, as most Dwarves do.
History: Born of noble heritage, there really wasn't much to say about Balrei's past. He grew up a fighter, as he parents wanted, and living in the mountain homes most of his life, he never really left the halls of war. But, eventually he grew tired of life indoors, and decided to take a trip out into the great world, at the age of only 20.

With nothing but the clothes on his back and the two handed axe that was inherited to him, "Vajdar" (Searing Flame) he traveled the world for many, many years. He had plenty of adventures in this time, and was able to rack up quite a name for himself. Now, as a middle-aged dwarf, he is on the road once again, now fighting to help those in need, like some sort of good old fashioned hero.
Equipment: His chain mail armor, with a large two handed Axe, made of a hard, unknown metal. It looks like the one in the picture, obviously.
Anything else you'd like to add: If you want something more detailed, or want me to add something, tell me.

Alright sounds good! Here's my character sheet:

Name: Anna

Age: 25

Gender: Female

Occupation: Warrior/Bounty Hunter

Race: Human

Physical Appearance: As depicted above in the picture: pale, with dark black hair and dark eyes. Stands at 5'7".

Personality: Anna is a reserved person, kind of quiet and watchful. She is kind of shy (kind of not really) but loves to meet people and make friends. She has an urge to protect people and the world. She can be cheerful, but sometimes gets clouded in her own thoughts and worries.

History: Anna picked up the sword when she was 10. Her father was a warrior, but he did not want this life style for his child. Anna knew that she wanted to become a warrior, and went through a school of traning. Her teacher graduated her, and now she is on her own using her own wits, battling the warped souls, and is searching for a master to complete her work. Born and raised in the town called Newberg, a valley between mountains.

Equipment: A long sword , metal armor and helmet. A sack of goods such as food, water, and supplies.

Anything else you'd like to add: Eh...subject to change, this is it for now.

Does magic come from the strange thing in the air that makes the beasts crazy?
