Let's get right to it!

This RP will be taking place just after the fall of Roma to Alaric and his Goths, we - the people - will be taking on the role of survivors from both sides of the conflict I.E. You could be just an average Roman citizen, you could be an invading Goth, a Hunnic mercenary who has tagged along with the migrating Goths as they seek out land to settle.

Once the general sacking and escaping is over, once everyone has congregated somewhere through the weavings of fate, that is when the plot and decision-making gets a little more thrust into the hands of the players.

Will you become a band of wandering beggars? Perhaps you've enough warriors to form something of a mercenary cadre, selling your services to a highest bidder and the like? Maybe you decide to get out of the conflict altogether, heading for Britannia and possibly more than you bargained for?

The choices are really only limited by the dedication of the players, your imagination, and only possibly by your historical knowledge. I will be able to help on the last point, the other two you must work on yourselves.

Lastly, I intend to make this RP grittier than a girit sandwich made of gritty bread and filled with grit!

You can expect scenes that some viewers may find distrubing, and thus this will be a 'mature' RP, but you can also expect clashes of religion, ideology, different thought processes and more.

If anyone is interested, and I am hoping you will be, do not be put off by a lack of knowledge in the period, of technical terms and dusty Latin, or by the fact that this is in the 'advanced' section. I'm open to any and all comers (regardless of gender etc) - although quality over quantity posts are what I'd prefer.

Interest - yes, no, maybe?

@CandiBarrMy sincerest thanks, Candi, and that is unfortunate to hear! If you ever find that your limit is not so suddenly limited, well, you know where to find me. :)

As a fan of Rome and history, I chuck my own interest into this category.

I am by far no expert, but I am one capable of grasping things rather quickly and have a limited standing knowledge that has grown rusted and inconsistent with my time away from Roman study.

My recent endeavors in a Latin class, however, have rekindled my Roman spirit as I learn the old language, and this is placed in a manner that has enough freeformity for me to healthily throw my interest in.

Salvae, magister JB, docet mihim itinere nobiscum

[Translating from English -to- Latin is something I'm atrocious at, at least thus far in my studies, but latin into English is something I've grasped much better- at least at my beginner studies level.]

@PhoenixWhiteThen suscipe hic alii ambulant in viis tuis, PW. Hopefully others, through whatever channel, shall be/become as interested as yourself. I believe, with such support, that this RP could do very well indeed.

Then again, looks like it may just be the two of us (I'll give it a couple of days, of course); if the worst comes to the worst, I could always shift the time frame to the Empire or Republic - both more recognisable dates in Roman history. Many people seem to have an unnatural phobia of the Late Roman Empire. :)

Bump?

(@CandiBarr@PhoenixWhite - In case you're interested...)

To everyone else, I've decided to try and give this an other lease of life, so if anyone is interested, then please say so. If you have any question, please ask them. If you've worries, please voice them.

So, for the second time, is anyone interested?
