The
First Rule
for survival outside of the safe areas

If you come across a beast, Troll, or Giant
do not run or call for help
but stand still and stay silent.
It might go away.



This is based off of a Webcomic of the same name, Check it out here guys if you are interested.



It's been 90 years after the great cataclysm that ended of the old world. Most of the surviving population of the Known world live in Iceland, the largest safe area in existence, while the safe settlements in the other Nordic countries; Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland, are small and scarce.



Countless mysterious and unspoken dangers lurk outside the safe areas, the Silent world, and hunters, mages and cleansers will spend their lives defending the settlements against the terrifying beings. Because of a great fear towards everything in the Silent world no official attempts to explore the ruins of the old have been made, and most of the information about it has turned into ancient lore, known by few.



But we are a group of Hunters, Mages, and Cleansers. Our job is to go and find a group of researchers who were sent outside of the safe area to explore the Silent world, Hailing from the different area of the known world we are to find out what happened to them and if possible bring them home.

----

Nationalities
There are many different nationalities in the known world; The Icelanders, Norwegians, Danes, and Finns.



Magic
Only the Icelanders and the Finns have Mages, their types of magic are very different in many aspects.



Cats
Fish, Birds, Reptiles and Bugs all survived the fall of the old world while most mammals succumbed to an illness. Except Felines, it is unknown how they survived while other species where ravaged and twisted but they have become a invaluable ally to humankind when facing the horrors of the Silent world.

This post is just to see who would be interested in this type of RP, I can answer questions on specific parts of the lore or the level of technology if you guys have any.

Oh wow, I can't believe I haven't heard of this comic before. Time to add yet another one to my backlog.
It certainly seems like a very interesting setting. What's the overall technological level here? It seems that modern weapons are used, are these manufactured or scavenged from the ruins of the old world?

Whoa this looks really cool. That art style is so cute too :D

Consider me interested.

Glad your interested! As for the technology it depends on the place it is from, Most of the places do have the capacity to build new weapons but a lot of parts get recycled because of recource needs. Finland would be a place where you would most often see a old reworked rifle while Sweden there would be a lot of brand new parts for them.

Looks like we have two people! I also have this thread open on General IC but no one has replied to that one yet.

I bump dis

Working on an OOC guys, gonna try and get it up tomorrow.

I like it, I also like that the Icelandic mages seem more like hippies than mages.

Sweet, sweet. Might be interested in joining.

Finnish mages are where it's at, though.

Interested

Say that to my eldkastare not online and see what happens, mammaknullare

I kid, I kid. Really excited for this. Wonder how big of an obstacle the language barriers are going to be for this group.

I posted the OOC guys, check it out here
