UPDATE!!!

The actual RP is up and running. A consolidated form of all the information found in this interest check can be found in the OOC thread. http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/146887-soturi-death-of-a-king/ooc

Introduction

I am Ryder, a pleasure to meet you! Now as the title suggests this is going to be a group fantasy RP. The world has been conquered by an immortal warrior (can be killed but won’t die from natural causes) who has made himself king. He has subjugated all the races of the earth – humans, elves, dwarves..etc. King Merrick has decreed that any immortal warriors other than him be put to death and any new ones who are born shall also be put to death. He has ruled for hundreds of years, the living conditions of his people getting worse and worse. An underground movement to overthrow the tyrant king has naturally sprung up but they need a leader and most of all they need warriors who like the King are immortal and can control the elements. The name of these immortal warriors is Soturi.

You can choose to play as a Soturi or a regular person, whichever you prefer. Now if you choose to be Soturi bare in mind that your character would keep that fact secret for fear of being put to death. Each Soturi can only control one element so choose wisely.







Now onto the fun part…



Now should you wish to PM me with any questions please include “Fantasy RP” in the title of the PM. Feel free to ask them here as well!

Interested! However, just wondering if the OOC will include lore and a larger backstory as to how this occurred?

Absolutely! Just didn't want to get into the details of no one was going to be interested. Plus, I figured the other people RPing should have input.

@Vas Khaleen Ask away!

Just wanted to know more in depth about the area, how the king has gradually destroyed the economy and land, what the rebellious group call themselves, how he plans to find and destroy the rest of the immortals, etc.

Some of these can obviously be answered through the roleplay, as I assume you'll be play the king @RyderTheWriter, right?

Hmm, lets see...

How about Magic and Religion? Outside of those little immortal warriors, are such things prevalent, and which forms do they take if this is the case?

I'm interested, by the way. I hope there's enough space left in here for me to squeeze in, I quite like the setup you've got so far~

I have a question of my own; are there monstrous races out there? Giant spiders, Unicorns, giant rats in basements, that sort of thing?

I will be playing the king along with several other characters as needed to guide the plot. I'll go into more detail on how the King came to power and how he set up his government to keep the people oppressed. He has made a point of flaunting the nobility's wealth to keep the people from uniting against him, rather wanting them to focus on hating each other.

The King came to power when he took control of the Soturi order, being the strongest and most cunning among them. They fought to drive out orcs, ogres and goblins that were being led by the God of the underworld. Once they were driven back into the underworld the Soturi order was decimated and the worlds armies crippled. He secretly had his close followers kill the remaining Soturi, who served as guardians of the people. He then declared himself king of all the land and those loyal to him enforced his rule. He left the nobility and royalty of each conquered nation intact to rule in his stead since him empire was so vast. Any who opposed him were killed publicly as a warning. Eventually he had full control and no longer needed those closest to him. Fearing they may one day be able to overpower him he killed the remaining Soturi who had been loyal to him and decreed that any children born Soturi be put to death immediately. Harboring Soturi was also punishable by death. Newborns were to be inspected by city guards for the mark of the Soturi but could often be persuaded to look the other way, money usually exchanging hands.

Magic is not prevalent outside the Soturi but does exist. Religion plays a much larger role that I'll go into once I get back home. (I'm replying on my phone and it's tedious).

Weapons would be what you find in a typical D&D campaign. (Swords and such)

Technologically speaking you're looking at something similar to Middle Earth from Lord of the Rings.
