In a place so far away and a time so long ago people once believed in the mythical and magical, yet as time goes by belief in such things dwindle. Not because they no long exist but because if you no longer believe you can no longer see. The eyes are blinded when the heart is no longer open.

Now those that wield magic still linger but hide themselves away, passing themselves off as nothing more than clumsy conjurers or old maids that travel as part of entertaining troops for the masses.

Mythical beings still walk the earth but again cannot be seen because either people cannot open their hearts to what is before them or because even the mythical have chosen to hide what they are. The longer you hide your true self though, the more you lose and eventually even the grandest dragon can forget and think they are nothing more than a smithy in some unknown town.

So who are you? Someone with a heart still pure? A conjurer of cheap tricks? A mythical being trying to hold onto the past? A creature who long forgot what they once were? Perhaps you are just like everyone else and cannot see what is before you until your heart is open? Perhaps you never will? Or maybe even a slayer of such to end the ways of old.

Chose your path and see if your path crosses another...

You may pick profession, race or mythical being - to be approved by the gm. This will be an open ended Rp - meaning the story will be driven by each character but the gm will control the world and what happens within it. (Such as fights, weather, land scape.)

Edit: CS

Name:
Race: (Human if non mythical, mythical - are you disguised as a human?)
Apparent Age:
Actual Age: (For mythical only and only if you can remember)
Appearance:
Profession:
Possessions:
Skills/Magic/Talents:
Demeanour:
History: (Only for the last year if mythical and hiding since your memory will be fading)

I'm in! Also, would you possibly have a template CS I could work on? Don't worry if you don't but for time's sakes

@GingerBoi123 Here you go, I may add more as needed, but this should be a good start. I'll add it to the original post.

I am very much interested!

@SomethingClever That is wonderful to hear. If we can garner a few more that are interested I will get an ooc/ic up post haste.

Sure. I might make a normal human fighter of some kind. Every fantasy RP needs the guy way in over his head.

@Avanhelsing I couldn't agree more.

@Lady AmaltheaAlright! Thanks! So... is this modern day? It sounded like it was a mythological world today. I just wanted to double check and if not that's cool too.

@GingerBoi123 More end of medieval times but pre modern. Limit tech to basic gun powder at the most advanced in single fire weapons.

@Lady AmaltheaOkey dokey, just wanted to check, thnx

@GingerBoi123 Most welcome, I am happy to answer any questions. I did leave the original post rather vague.

I love the sound of this. An open ended classic fantasy roleplay with lots of creative freedom. ^.^

I think I will make a thief. I like that. Thief it is.

Wow, I must say that I am amazed to see so much interest so quickly. I will begin to work on an ooc/ic. (And of course I am still open for more to join, the more the merrier as far as I am concerned.)

I will make mine but it will be a bit of WIP for now.

Interested. Will begin work on a CS.

No!!!! I deleted it. Back to work then.

@Avanhelsing Oh my, that isn't good at all.

Much interested, such already working on character sheet.
Expect really old mythical beings that are really obscure.

Name: Wallace Fletcher never Wallace. He rarely allows people to call him Wally. Usually just Fletcher
Race: Human
Apparent Age: 24

Appearance:


Profession: Thief
Possessions:
A pair of long daggers.
Lockpick Kit
Climbing gear

Skills/Magic/Talents:
Master Thief: He is the type to break into a lord's mansion and leave with just about everything that isn't nailed down. He never robs the poor and honest. There is no sport in that. He was trained for almost 13 years, so he knows what he is doing.

Enhanced Body: There is something different about Wally. He is a bit faster than the average human and stronger too. Perhaps it is magic.

Demeanor: There are two faces to Fletcher. During the day, he is carefree and happy. He cracks jokes as the bartender everybody loves to talk to. Drunks tend to tell the truth. He uses that intel to figure out his heists. As soon as night falls, he changes attitudes. He does his mission not matter the cost as long as he does not kill an innocent to serve his mission.

He is most at home in the lower quarters of a city or among the common people. He can make friends and allies with people like that.

History: Wallace was born Wallace Gladgers. House Gladgers was a rather powerful noble house and that bothered the other Houses of Queensport. When he was 11, the nobles of the city decided it was time to exterminate the entire house. So they sent the Guard to kill them down to the last servant. However they did not catch Wallace since he had escaped deep into the city. He was eventually found by a retired thief, Ben Fletcher, who trained him in the ways of a thief. He gave his apprentice a pair of magical daggers that would never rust or get dull. He also gave him his last name since Gladgers was no longer a name anymore. Wally Fletcher would have to get revenge on his own. Wally started his own jobs when he was eighteen and works at the Rusted Daggers as his cover.
