Genkai's Note:
This will be a 1x1x1. I will not accept more or less than two other participants.
This is also in the ADV INTCHK but the OOC and such will likely stay over there. I'm just posting it here because I know the very intimate three person setup, would appeal to some people around these parts.
Also these other participants must be fairly active due to the fact there will be an established and strict posting order. There's only three of us after all. One post a week is ideal. The less we wait on one another, the better. Of course trips, work, school will crop up but I have to assume if you're of an advance caliber, then you're also capable of communicating and setting/meeting deadlines. This is a hobby of course, and this is meant to be fun. However the success rests on all of our shoulders. We all should be making adjustments to world building, plot progression etc.
Post size should be around 4-5 paragraphs. I'd love more but that's the average I'll accept. We're creating a rich world, things should be observed, if your character sees papers or bottles, have them go take a look.
Lastly, though this is inspired by Dragon Age: Inquisition I am only taking one overall premise from it. The lore and magic will not directly follow the game. But the spirit of exploration and doing quests will be heavily present in the story itself. I will look to my other two writers to help foster the setting and plot (and the small quest plots) as I don't see myself as a strict GM but someone who is also along for the ride.
Overall Premise:
The majority of the story will take place on a singular but very vast continent known as Ma'heah.
There will be deserts, marshes, forests, rivers, rain forests, waterfalls, cities, towns etc. The landscape will vary quite a lot and as such, two kingdoms reign over it, always fighting to have more land than the other. One kingdom, Relle, is known for its polished and refined way of living, while the other kingdom, Balka, is known for its resources and more simple way of living. Both kingdoms have gone through cycles which have lasted over seven centuries, where they have fought, made peace and then found another reason to go to war.
The kingdom known as Balka is more keen to follow the way of logic and research and science, despite its hardship. And the kingdom known as Relle, clings to their religion, claiming their fortune (and Balka's hardship) to come from their goddess, Urkwia. Both kingdoms have been at peace for the last decade but with the sudden appearance of holes in the sky, tensions are mounting as Balka considers these to be attacks from Relle and their supposed goddess. Relle on the other hand, considers these tears in the heaven to be a sign that they deserve more of Ma'heah's lands.
Ambassadors spearheading negotiations are growing concerned as nothing seems to be helping the rips in the sky. And from said rips, demons are spawning and terrorizing people from both kingdoms. An emergency call is put out to those from either kingdom, hoping mages and scholars and knights can all come together to tackle the rifts which seem to appear at an alarming rate. Mages are only partly effective towards killing the demons but the rifts themselves remain open, like a festering wound.
Enter our three heroes.
One is formidable in earth. They are able to harness healing, move boulders, summon vines and create excessive overgrowth upon their enemies. Another is formidable in water. They are able to move bodies of water and bend them to their will. They can also create shards of ice and send tidal waves upon those who oppose them. And the final one is formidable in wind. They can summon large cyclones, move objects, levitate and cut through air.
All three of these stranger have been in a similar accident, on separate occasions.
When they were near a rift and fending off enemies, they were briefly sucked into it and taken to the other side, a place they assumed to be death or whatever aftermath lies beyond life itself. Suddenly their right hand began to glow a bright white light and suddenly they were back in their world, closing the rift. All three of these people have gone to the gathering, hoping that their mark on their hand, can shed some light on the problem facing all of Ma'heah. Upon arriving however, a large rift forms, the biggest sighted one to date. As people are being attacked and killed, while some lucky flee, the three heroes band together to close the rift, as all three of their elements melt together to soothe the broken sky.
As the smoke clears, people are in awe but also upset by the new revelation.
Who are these three?
What do their new powers mean?
Can they form a group, gain support and travel to stop the war but also close the rifts?
Closing Thoughts:
Yeah it's a little scattered, poorly presented but I do have to go in about thirty and wanted this up before I went out.
In the OOC, things will be much better, more organized, quests will be outlined etc.
Now just because your character uses magic, doesn't mean they need to be a mage. They can still use a sword and shield if they like. Be creative but not outrageous. They can be a merchant or even a mother of four. But this should go without saying, make sure any character you're thinking of submitting, isn't overly nefarious. They don't have to be a saint but let's be honest, if your character is a shady dick, no one is going to deal with them, saving the world or not. So let's just assume for now, the heavens picked your character because they inherently want to save the world, now if they want to save it for selfish reasons, fine. But just don't make someone who isn't into teamwork when that's the crutch of this story.
I am looking for one male and one female character. I will probably double up and play a mentor to even the sexes out. Gotta keep more romance options open right? And yes, flirting and romance should be encouraged but of course sexual scenes should be kept to PM and inform us in the OOC if something happened.
Also this isn't first come first serve. Don't join looking to only play "x character" because you may not get it, and then you leave the rest of us high and dry. Join because you want to explore and create a world together.
I'll leave this up for maybe a day but I'd rather get rolling now because I have an itch for DA: I that needs scratching.
