    Overview of An Imagined World - Allaria:


    An Imagined World, Allaria, takes place in a medieval type of setting, using classical creatures from a variety of lore. These include Human, Elf(Surface and Drow), Dwarf, and Minotaur, plus more. Some of the more varied races, include Dragonoids, and Irda. The world is ran by a council of an unknown number; one of each race present in the RP. The world has a plethora of magic, streaming from the very souls of those magically apt; at the same time, it is brimming with those who are magically inapt, who use their wits, and body to shape the very land they claim as their own. Not everything is peachy keen, however, the darkest portions of society hold a nasty secret. Not every city is filled with hard-working citizens, some are controlled by greedy aristocrats, whose main purpose in life is to make money off the backs of the slaves that power their city. As such, the theme of this RP should remain somewhat dark, in a good piece of the world; yet, soft-hearted in others.

    FAQ(optional):

    Tech Level: As this is a medieval world, everything will be as it was in that timeline, though ingenious inventions happen all the time. Therefore, there may be shimmers of the first sprouting of clockwork, nothing extremely large and certainly no firearms past crossbows.

    Magic and how it works: In ‘An Imagined World’ magic is present everywhere, however, it is unable to manipulated by anyone who isn’t heavily trained in the magics of the universe. Because of this, people manipulate their own magic reserves(Their soul) to cast their magic. This has both consequences and rewards. On the good side, this opens up the world to a non-structured set of magic, by that, I mean, the type of magic is not limited to certain things, but there are still limits(Time/Space Manipulation is out; Reality; and extreme teleportation. Anything else is up to scrutiny, anything seen as overpowered, will be denied). On the bad side, you are casting your own soul when using magic, however, it DOES slowly replenish itself the longer you go without using magic. Healing, is allowed by those who specialize in it, and they are every rare. Most healers have no other skills past healing, as they are often used to in places where battle skills are unneeded. Also, with healing, healing magical wounds are often harder to do by magical means(Soul vs. Soul). It is possible, but it requires a longer period to do.

    Magical Limits: I ask that people who choose magic, do so and forego, for the most part, major skills in more physical combat. Like, if you choose to manipulate(Including creating) fire, I would like it if you were not able to fight on par, always, with someone who went the physical route. There is a way to circumvent this, however, and that is using the magic purely on yourself and/or weapon. Say if you were manipulating lightning in a weapon sense; you’d only be able to use it in the form of arrows(If a bow and arrow were your weapon choice), or in conjunction with your fists or sword to give a shock(dependent on the strength of the spell). You get the gist. At the start, your magic may be relatively weak, growing as you progress in the story. Also, each soul has certain things it can do; a fire-related soul, for instance, won’t be able to do anything wildly differing from fire. Magic, as it stands, cannot be used to make a weapon composed completely of fire, doing so would consume a lot of a person’s soul, if not it in its entirety.

    Character Type: This differs from race, as it goes more into profession. Not all of you have to be wanderers, nor do all of you have to be specific mages or warriors; add some variety, throw in some everyday folk.

    Skills: Yes, there will be skill castes in this RP. Ranging from most things your mind can think of. Being an advanced RP, I would expect that you would come in with something sensible - A Major and a Minor.

    Created Race(s): Assuming they are in order, I will allow them, because I am aware that the pre-determined races lack an aquatic leaning race. I am also aware, many people might not like the predetermined races. When creating a race, you’ll need to pick a God(Grants somewhat of a bonus to their main race and to a chosen skill(Magic, Strength, Speed, etc.) for them, and have a Council member for them.

    Starting Level: At the beginning, I want everyone to start as novices/beginneers/noobs, in their chosen fields(See: Class/Skills), so as the story progresses the characters can develop, instead of starting off outright good at what they do. A baker/cook would cook for the group, during downtimes, and eventually get better at it, after cooking not so good meals.

    Spirit Animals: These characters are physical, or metaphysical, representations of your spirit and what it represents. They act as spiritual guides, and can sometimes be used by god’s to convey thoughts to their spirit’s vessel. The closer a person is to their animal, the stronger his/her magic will become. At the beginning, most are only able to get their animal in the form of a hazy imprint; as time progress it’s ghostly presences comes about, and finally a physical specimen. Non-magical people have animals as well. Using a lot of magic causes the animal, if manifested, to slowly deplete based on how much magic you spent. Completely losing it, causes it to revert back into your body and be unable to summon(Cutting off your magic) the animal until sufficiently recovered.
    Glossary And Such:

    Apotheoses: Is the name of the main group of antagonists. It also means "The highest point in the development of something; culmination or climax," as well as, "The elevation of someone to divine status; deification."

    Messaging: Sending a message is often a painful process. If a bad guy is transcribing a message, then it is often particularly painful. Sending a message requires a person to transcribe the message on their own spirit animal, and sending it to another person. Their animal then transfer themselves into someone else(and cannot effect anything), taking them over and speaking through them. Often, the afflicted takes on the animal traits.

    Messenger: Messengers are a type of playable character, often characterized by numerous tribal-like tattoos. They are often the go between, between the Old Council and the world.

    * Including a new character species will result in them being added to the overall list. Most likely I'll ask you if I can add them, your chances increase of using the character race if it is allowed for wide usage.

    Greetings,

    This is one young master Dorian Gregory, reserving this particular location for my incoming character sheet. Unfortunately, I have to do some studying for class tonight and potentially some work on a written assignment. However, if all goes well I hope to have all of that taken care of by 11pm est. With that being said, if I achieve that goal I shall put my character up as soon as possible. I'm not sure what purpose this post actually serves other than saying, Rilla if you guys jump off without me I might have to drive down to Carolina and make sure your ass ends up in jail. Not fancy white guy jail, but nasty butt rape jail.

    You have been warned.
