"Perhaps you did it for fortune and fame, perhaps you did it to obtain power..
Whatever your reasons, something must have called upon those aspirations of yours, but what really made you leave your home in Fireside?
A map you say.. and others went with you on this journey?
It must have been a perilous trek..
Filled with the best and the worst of what our world has to offer..
But please, do tell..
For this sounds like what is surely the tale of tales.."
You've lived your whole life in the village of Fireside, located in Fireside Canyon. You've known about the world beyond the borders of your village, but you knew very little, and the little you did learn was from the travelers that passed through, and the mighty heroes looking for fame and fortune. You lived a simple life in Fireside, doing simple work to gain your coin here and there. Perhaps you felt like you always wanted more, and never had a reason to follow your ambitions..
Until now..
A travelling merchant recently arrived in Fireside, with a rather unique set of goods. Of the wares he displayed, you couldn't help but notice a map with a location marked by an X. You asked if he knew anything about the map, and he told you he knew very little, other than it was rumored to lead to great treasures, things unimaginable to people like the ones that dwelled in Fireside. He noticed you had very little to offer, so he was willing to let you bargain for it. Unfortunately you weren't the only one who noticed the map, and the merchant's offer..

Hey! This here's an rp for the Animation series by Sun Creature Studio, Tales of Alethrion! Don't know what that is? Here ya go: The Reward and The First Hero
This rp is going to be focused around the party going on a journey to find a certain thief, who stole a certain thing they all wanted. Along the way, they'll have to grow to deal with the challenges of the untamed wilderness, giant monsters, and chocolate spitting monkeys.
Any questions?
Da Rules:
1. Don't be an asshat. Asshattery is acceptable in small doses, but don't deliberately try to ruin someone else's experience for a menial joke.
2. Respect mah Authoriteh. And Spybuster's.
3. Try to have fun. This should PROBABLY be the best reason for you even being here, as the Tales of Alethrion series is a somewhat wacky, fantastical adventure without a whole lot of questions that you need to ask. Also, nonsense will probably happen. Like Evil Oceans. Or bears. Bears are utter nonsense.
4. You're not supposed to go cowboy. Generally speaking for this rp, we're going to be travelling together as a unit. One guy charging into a horde of chocolate goblins or whatever nonsensical monster I cook up will probably get sever 3rd degree chocolate burns, because the power of teamwork would have served him better. Mmm...chocolate burns.
5. Please, for the love of all things in Brühn's thong, TELL us ahead of time if you need to take an extended leave! A few days is fine, but if you're gone for a week or so, you're just going to bog everyone else down, and your character will be forced into early, non-glorious retirment. And what kind of NON-HERO retires without a grand treasure and grandkids to bounce on their knees? COWARDS I SAY!
6. Do not autohit, or kill of someone else's character. I really shouldn't have to point this out, but we are all pretty much greedy adventurers. If you get in a duel or something, do a collaborative post.
7. Don't frick-frack on the snick-snacks. No sex. None. Unless you go offscreen, out of my thread, and out of my audible range. I hear enough from my neighbors.
8. We're not murderhobos. Don't kill of random NPCs, just because you're chaotic neutral.
9. Please, try to maintain at least a paragraph per post with acceptable spelling and grammar.
10. You are not going to start with a weapon unless you have a damn good reason for it. And even then, you won't be killing dragons with a trowel.
11. You have every right to voice your opinion on how things are going in the rp, and heck, a good idea from you might turn into me writing it into a possible quest hook or enemy boss, or NPC.
12. Have a spirit of adventure in ya!
