So I've been watching The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and the Hobbit movies, and I've been craving an RP with elves and dwarves and knights and all that!!!

Sadly I don't know too much about the LOTR lore, and I don't want to mess anything up, so I would very much like a co- GM to help me out creating a Lord of the Rings inspired world, and we can think of all these species and the lore of the land!

I would also love to hear anyone else's ideals for species and characters and all that too!!

But the main plot I was thinking of was every 100 years there were few chosen on the earth to hold the gods's gifts. So one person could have the gift of strength, another elf has the gift of stealth, gift of bargaining, swiftness, etc. as there are good gifts from good gods, there are also dark and powerful gifts from the evil ones. For as long as the world was created, there has always been the classic battle of good and evil, always equal in the battle... Until recently

An evil and powerful tyrant who has the gift of darkness successfully killed all the good gifted people... He started to kill all the other bad evil gift bearers. For 100 years , the world has lived in absolute darkness. Corrupt towns and kings, no road is safe, and the war still rages on, though it is barely called that. The tyrant now crises rebellions, and waits for the day the gods choose more heroes to try and defeat him...

If they are to even stand a chance against the evil, they must form together, and travel through the war ridden land. They will have people willing to join their journey, and to protect them. It won't be easy, there will be bloodshed, and as the heroes rebirth, so do the evil forces.

There will be names and more clarification if this gets enough interest for an OOC hahaha, but it will be epic! There will be romance, action, tragedy, and that great feeling of awesome lands and towns to explore!!

Is anyone interests so far??? And if you're interested in helping me create this world , please PM me!

Interested, I'm no lore master, but I've read all the books and own all the movies. I think the God's gift concept is interesting. Perhaps it could be like in Avatar, where once the Avatar dies, he is reincarnated. So if all the good gifted people die, their gifts pass on to the next generation. We could be that generation!

This looks pretty interesting. I've been wanting to join a fantasy RP for some time now. Consider me interested. And i agree with Notorious's idea.

awesome! hahaha i'm glad so many of you are interested, and willing to help me out! I don't want anything to be EXACTLY like the Lord of the Rings world, so while creating the OOC, if there are things are a bit too similar, just let me know haha. I would still like elves to be immortal, and be perfect when it comes to archery, and dwarves to be cave dwellers, but we could also have different sub categories for them, and if you guys have ideas, i'd love to hear them!

And as for that reincarnation idea, I really like it! and it takes time for that spirit to get strength to be reborn again, so it'll be like that! The people with the gifts might find out that they are chosen by like a message, or flash backs of previous' gift bearer's lives and stuff like that, it'd be pretty cool to do something like that hahaha

Working on the OOC now!

How many gift bearers should we have, though? I was thinking 12, 6 for each side. If you have an idea for a gift, please let me know what it is, and what side it would be so I can add it to the OOC!

Well I mean if you wanted to do the idea with the Gods keep in mind that many civilizations shared the same general Pantheon. For example most civilizations had some sort of war deity, justice deity, creation deity. Stuff like that. I guess the main problem would be what sort of gifts would all these deities provide? If you provide me a list of the gods you want, I would be more than happy to exercise the creative mind and come up with different gifts for each of their "chosen".

In terms of races, Lord of the rings kept it pretty simple, so don't go creating like twenty playable races hahaa. Just the basic four: Humans, halflings, elves, dwarves, and perhaps add one or two more to make it unique.

Thank you for the advice, I'll keep all of those in mind hahaha, I'm only thinking about bringing a new species in here, but if any of you would like to add your own, please let me know hahaha

So I was a bit in to the OOC when my computer crashed, and it deleted most of it, I forgot to save it for a bit, so the OOC is going to take a bit longer to be posted, i'm sorry everyone! But it will be up hahaha

I would be interested, but would like to play a parahuman-ish character. I would like to play a deer mixed person.I guess other creatures could be centaurs, mermaids, fauns/satyrs of that sort. (: Just curious if that is something that could be implemented or experienced here. If so- you can count me in too!

I'm interested, I have three suggestions for races that could be playable along with Human, elves and dwarfs. Gnomes, Goblins and Brownies, does that sound like a cool idea?

I totally forgot about those types! I will totally add them, but they'll be more of the secondary races hahaha

Those are pretty good as well!

So what I was thinking on doing with the plot that there were these primary races made in the beginning, but as war raged on, the gods on both sides start creating more creatures to help fight for their cause, so Centaurs are considered noble and respectful creatures so they would be naturally good, but probably neutral in the fight, as Goblins would be more darker and nasty creatures, so they would be more on the dark evil side. Although gnomes, and mermaids and all that could be neutral as well

I started to get the OOC running again after I forgot to save it yesterday, so it'll be done today hahaha
