(This RP is a part of the 'Chronica Historia' - for people unfamiliar with the term, please see the OOC post of 'Chrysanthia' here : Chronicles of Chrysanthia [OOC] and find it under its hider)
Intended level : High Casual
Labels: War, politics, violence, spirituality, supernatural, romance, drama, fantasy, magic, wild west (and more)
Intended capacity : 6-8 roleplayers*
*Initially I want to strive for and work with 6 participants, with a possible extension towards 8 people. It depends on how well the RP is going and how frequent the cast is able to post (doesn't have to be 10 times a day of course, but once per day is ideal). More information will follow.
INTRODUCTION
This particular RP - as the title might suggest - will have a very similar feel to the on-going RPs bearing the same name (in Chronicles), yet this entry will be entirely independent with regards to the Chrysanthia and Schwarzald entries. For that reason, you can expect a totally different world, completely different races and an entirely new atmosphere in the sense that this RP will not only be fantasy-based, but staged in a Wild West world of technology (reminiscent of the United States in the 18th-20th century). Much like Chrysanthia and Schwarzald, Inaia will be a war-style RP in the sense that the theme will have a recurring effect; of course, it goes without saying that it will not simply be just that (think about it: untamed lands, exploration, political clashes between races etc.).
PLOT
"The world of Inaia has undergone a lot of changes over the course of time, as it now only consists of one supercontinent that is made up of at least 5 individually recognized continents, along with the largest area that runs through several of them and which has become known as 'the Wildlands' - a rough and untamed area of wilderness and pristine nature. As of a few hundred years, Inaia has been a home to a multitude of races and factions which have been co-existing in peace for decades...yet, tension rose anew when, not too long ago, a new self-proclaimed 'emperor' rose up from nowhere, following the death of the former king. Immediately invoking a series of harsh new laws, effectively causing the former kingdom of Garangia to become an empire ruled by a tyrant, the remainder of Inaia showed their disgust. Like a chain reaction, many Humans inhabiting the Garangia empire threw away their citizenship and packed their belongings to head elsewhere in an attempt to escape its nation's persecution. However, the emperor anticipated their escape in advance and had many of the refugees killed as an example for other citizens. Nevertheless, many did escape but were faced with the challenge of overcoming the roughness of the Wildlands - which they had to cross in order to be truly free from the empire's grasp - and many did not live to tell the tale. Today, those Humans that did escape now call themselves 'the Settlers' to distantiate themselves from the empire and have given birth to an anti-empiric faction called 'the Rebellion', which is no more than a small group of fighters that openly opposes the empire. Clashes with the empire have thus far been avoided, but may not remain so for much longer...
Having enslaved and oppressed the ancient Nageesh race, the empire has recently discovered a way to mass-produce beta versions of the fabled 'Omega GEARs' - immensely powerful weapons that were said to amplify its wielder's latent energies and bestow them with a mystical power - which they call 'Trinity GEARs'. Much like the 'Omega GEARs', the 'Trinity GEARs' are weapons of outstanding power that draws out the latent powers inside a person's soul. Realizing this, many other factions and races have thus remained dormant when it comes to interaction with the empire; after all, no one would stand a chance against the 'Trinity GEARs'. The Rebellion remains ever so vigilant and stalwart despite these disturbing facts but...for how long?"
CHANGES
Because this RP is completely different than the Chrysanthia and Schwarzald worlds, a lot of changes could be listed here. Instead, I'll list some of the major ones and probably the most interesting ones for newcomers and veterans alike.
- 8 new races
- A whole new world, with different regions.
- New fighting classes, with the original non-race bound ones from Chrysanthia preserved and adjusted to fit the new atmosphere; along with also completely new classes.
- A new system for use of the elemental powers.
- The Trinity GEARs
- Inaian Deities will replace the Zodiac Signs from Chrysanthia, but will have a different purpose than aforementioned.
- Much more!
FINAL WORDS
That's all I can give away at this time, without spoiling too much of what I have in store for the participants. If - however - you became interested in this particular RP, perhaps the other entries in the 'Chronica Historia' might catch your interest as well; you can visit the on-going 'Chronicles of Chrysanthia - The Chaos Wars' there and for Schwarzald: 'Chronicles of Schwarzald - A Looming Darkness' there. Thanks for your time and effort to read through all this and of course, feel free to drop a comment in the thread if you wish to claim/reserve a spot*. Be wary that this RP might be a long-running one, so do know what you'll get yourself into...Also remember the High Casual label~ Other than that...Thanks again for reading and perhaps I'll be able to welcome you as a new crew member before long. As a side note: you do not need to have been in the other RPs to be able to join this RP. As I've stated before, this will be an independent title.
*By claiming a spot, it does not mean you will automatically be in the RP; it simply means that, by expressing your interest, you are a potential candidate for a spot.

Hey! I see you secretly browsing this thread from time-to-time.
I think you should stop by, leave a comment, and perhaps an interest in the RP. Although we've released quite a few Chronicles (some inactive, others semi-active) we're looking to change that, and of course, it cannot be done without you helping us out. So drop by, chit-chat, ask some questions, and hopefully, we can RP with you in the future. Lookin' forward to starting this RP. Some come one, come all!
