The Shifting Sands


"It has been 141 years since the great Calamity. To this day, we still do not know where the sands came from, only that it forced us from our homes. Now, we are stuck travelling like nomads from one oasis to another.
When our cities disappeared in the sand, so did our hearts too apparently. All the races blamed each other for the great disaster and each went their own way. Now we have dozens of tribes roaming the sands, each tribe fighting for the little resources that are left.
Basic resources like water and food are already scarce, but the things people really kill for, are down in the cities. Things like technology, books or whale oil. To retrieve these things, we sent down expeditions. But we quickly learned that it wasn't that simple. Apparently other creatures have made our old cities their home. So we trained special folk to go down. We called them the Dwellers.
Now that you know our history, I shall tell you a special tale. This tale begins with a peculiar tribe. You see, this tribe had people from all races. Human, elves, dwarves and much more. Why was it like that you ask? Well, this tribe was tribe of outcasts. People thrown out of their own tribe were drawn to this tribe of misfits in order survive the Sands. Here your past didn't matter, only the present and the future. And this tribe too had special trained Dwellers, which this story will be about...



Welcome to the Shifting Sands



Your characters will be taken the role of Dwellers, tasked to scavenge the old cities for supplies in order for the Tribe to survive. Like it says in the IC bit, the tribe consists of multiple races. Of course the standard human, elf, dwarf fall under that, but if you can come up with something clever, do not hesitate to throw the idea in the group.

For you to nicely play along, I need you to fill out this Character Sheet. Do post this in the Characters Tab. Lovely stuff.


Fill that in, get a wink from me, and you're on board. With 4 Character sheets in and approved, the playing will commence!

Oh god, I really shouldn't do this (so. much. writing to do.), but if this goes somewhere I'd be interested. I'd probably wait till the OOC to start filling out a character sheet. Would you be including more info about races and the world in the OOC (a map, maybe?). And will this be centred around a specific plot?

This sounds amazingly fun! I'm super interested in playing but would like to know more about the world before making a character sheet.

Right, I have enough interested people on board now. I shall be making the OOC tomorrow. This will also hold some more information about the the world, races and other stuff in general.

Thank you for showing an interest in this idea!

@dragonmancer I'll accept it, although no shape shifting. Seems a bit out of place. They're also veeeeery rare. Most of em went extinct during the calamity, although you already explained that yourself.
Better keep your character well hydrated though! Don't want to pass out from the intense heat. Also, be prepared for quite a bit of racism towards your character, because it requires so much water. Haha.

@Flynn

I expected the racism to come from the savage instances behind the race but i guess water is more important, hah.
