Arom, an ancient city on the very edge of the sea, filled with wonders and magic. Merchants traveled from all directions, bringing goods from across the dessert to the west, the sea on the east. The dangerous marshlands to the north produced the most expensive and exquisite fruits and plants, while the frozen tundra's to the south brought strange meats and pelts of savage beasts, covered in amazing markings and colours. This isn't to mention the goods brought in from other dimensions. The sea was so close; the city was part of it, the streets surrounding strips of water, boats used as passage in exchange for the horses, mounts and automobiles many other cities sported. All manner of people live and travel through Arom, sharing secrets and exchanging stories. It is a friendly city, one where strange folk could find sanctuary from the dangerous minds of the rest of the globe. A city where the space was thin, and the worlds collided. A plethora of wonders inhabit the city, and it's known for its rare items. the city is a crossing point from all the relms, all the galaxies, all the worlds. with this being so, every imagnitable thing can be found in at one time or another in Arom. The city welcomes you, and its people wish you a good time.


I plan for this to be a sandbox type of roleplay, since there is so much freedom with the mechanics. players can be any race with any looks and any abilities, on the condition that they aren't overpowered. There can be magic and extreme technology, and sometimes the two overlap. boats are the main source of travel, but scooters, small mounts skateboards, bikes and other small things like that can be used in the footpaths on either side of most of the canals, and bridges curve over the waters to let people cross onto the other side.

basically interact with other characters and explore the great city of Arom, (Which is based visually off of Venice.)

If you have any questions, concerns or inquiries, please feel free to tell me. :) the idea is loose and I'm a scatterbrain.

Are there factions within the city? Guilds? Noble families? Anything?

I wouldn't think nobles or anything like that, but there are the general classes: High, middle and lower. the city has no "Authority" other than the police force, and even they don't do much. its kind of universal in Arom that it's neutral ground for races, and organizes itself, if that makes sense. nobles from other parts would travel through or take vacation there, though.

and yes, I there would be various guilds and organizations. :)

No, not really. Nothing more than the daily conflicts between beings.

Ah! Hank you all for the interest! :D I'll work on a OOC now!

And I think yes, two characters will be fine. :)

Edit: OOC is up! I look forward to your character sheets.
