[h1][center] Accepting Magi CSs ! [sub][url=https://discord.gg/hZCUWhj] Discord Server for MP ! [/url][/sub][/center][/h1] [hr] [i]One hundred years ago everything changed. The Mages decided it's time to do something that is impossible , to be Gods. 'Thus has started and ended the reign of the Magi. The other races didn't accepted their claim of Godhood and they rebelled against the Magi. Soon after the Warrior Guild was created , now called the Empire. After 70 years of fighting they won the war and enslaved the Magi , killing those of them that were too powerful to be left alive and destroying almost all the inventions made by them. The Empire enacted the Citadel 75 years after the war. The mages since they are detected with magical talent are sent to the Citadel. An anti-magic prison of sorts. Every 6 years a few mages ( 1/8 of the population ) are allowed to study to casts spells for the kingdom when needed. If a mage gathers too much power / too much knowledge he is sent to the Death Row and killed. The mages that are not selected are kept in magic-dampering cells. Now 100 years later evil threatens the Empire again... [/i] [hider=Important Events Timeline] [list][*] 520 BMW ( Before Mage War ) - A group of the most talented Magi met in Boralis's Library to discuss the face of the world. After a week of talking , they decided it's time to challenge the Gods themselves and cast the most complex spell ever. [*] 521 BMW - A year later diseases and monsters started to roam the lands. People gone to the Magi to help but were sent away or killed on the spot. [*] 522 BMW - The attacks continued and in December The Warrior Guild was enacted. The Magi soon started to loose power to the Warrior Guild [*] 523 BMW - The Human capital has been attacked by unknown monsters and everyone in the city was killed. The Magi didn't do anything to stop the attack. People started to understand who was behind the attacks. [*] 525 BMW - The Warrior Guild started to gain more and more influence as the attacks became more deadly than before and entire cities were erased. The same year the Magi sent an army to kill the Warrior Guild's leader. The attack failed and at the end of the year , the Magi War started. [*] 595 BMW - 70 years later the Magi lost most of their cities to the united races of the Warrior Guild. Too many casualties were taken by the Warrior Guild. Something had to be done to win the war otherwise they would soon loose even if they took most of the Magi cities. [*] 596 BMW - An attack of the Magi Capital city of Boralis was deemed necessary to win the war against the Magi. [*] 597 BMW - The siege of Boralis began but the Magi left in the city didn't need food nor water and their defenses could withstand years of fighting. Years the the Warrior Guild didn't have. [*] 598 BMW - A plan was conceived to end the siege of Boralis. Now the biggest and bloodiest fight in the recorded history. A low ranking soldier devised a plan to destroy the Magi's biggest weapon , the Amulet of Dala'radan. The Magi's source of infinite power. An attack on the Boralis was followed by a infiltration team sent to take the destroy the Amulet. Most of the army was getting decimated as the low ranking soldier and a few suicidal soldiers infiltrated the palace and with luck from the Gods , she fought two Magi Masters and destroyed the Amulet. When the Amulet was destroyed an event called the Rapture happened. Magical energies kept in the Amulet exploded and destroyed a big part of Boralis along with the army sent to conquer it. From the ruins of Boralis a woman was seen holding a small Amulet piece. She was beyond saving but she was soon raised to the status of Saint. [*] 1 AMW - The races gathered together and decided to unite against the Magi's offspring that still appeared. [*] 2 AMW - The Empire was founded and all races joined it but the Kil'garen. [*] 10 AMW - The Rapture apparently did more that destroy a part of Boralis. Magical Energies spread around the Magi territory killing or mutating everything in it's path. At the end of the year , the place started to be called The Wasteland and monsters appeared to kill those that approached too much. [*] 15 AMW - After a few failed experiments with Magi technology , the technology was deemed " too dangerous " to be used and everything that was Magi related was destroyed. Many people were killed in the attempt to hide artifacts and such from the Empire's army. [*] 20 AMW - Creatures started to attack travelers and such outside of the Wasteland. In September a large wall started to be built to completely cut off any access to the Wasteland. [*] 42 AMW - After two decades the wall has finally been built. Manned by Dark Humans alone , it served as a protection against any kind of monster that would come out of the Wasteland. [*] 70 AMW - A new technology based on the Magi tech was created by the Empire. A device that could be used to detect magical energies in a person as soon as they are born. Killing soon started as Magi were killed when they were babies. [*] 71 AMW - After a few rebellions the Empire decided it's time to build a prison to keep the Magi instead of just killing them. [*] 75 AMW - The Citadel was enacted and Magi that were found were imprisoned and most killed there. [*] 80 AMW - Yet another technology was created based on Magi Tech in secret. Phylacteries that kept the blood of a Magi that could be used to track a Magi if he escaped imprisonment. [*] 94 AMW - Rumors about a Magi "Saint" started to spread as wildfire in the Empire. A Mage that resided in the Wasteland. It was soon deemed that any mention of the Magi "Saint" to be punished by death. [*] 97 AMW - Even tho' the Magi "Saint" was no longer mentioned in large circles , the rumors continued and so the "The Wastelander" was born. Bards sang about his "evil" deeds against the Empire and all that is good but no one has ever seen him. He became a legend to common folk that was used to scare children that didn't obey their parents ( something like the Boogie Man ). [*] 100 AMW ( Present Day ) - A thief entered the Citadel's Artifactorium and stole the piece of the Amulet that Saint Courage brought back from Boralis. [/list] [/hider] Thank you for reading the small description , first of all. Now. The story will be about exploring a place called The Wastelands. A place that was destroyed in the Magi War. This place is different from the other places in the kingdom. Experiments roam the land free and technology there is more advanced than the rest of the lands. Because of the magic ban , many inventions were considered "taboo" so they are not used. The action of the RP takes place 100 years after the war and many things about the war itself was forgotten or have become a myth. So there will be a lot of amazement from our characters when they see some of the inventions of the past. About the magic. Every race available will have an a different magic type and costs of the use of that magic. Example : A dark human ( I'll explain each race in the OCC ) will only be allowed to master Black Magic and the cost of it will be probably life force. Their own or the others. Only the masters of old could use any kind of magic and casts the most complex spells that would need mastery of more than one magic type. For the spells themselves I will allow the players to choose only 1 complex spell ( only if explained how they've learned it because magic tomes and such were destroyed after the war and as I said. Magic is highly regimented by the Warrior Guild. Now called the Empire ) and 2/3 basic spells. More magic spells will be learned after they start the journey. All mages ( of any race ) live in the Citadel. So...the mage characters will know each other. They are not friends but they are acquaintances. There will only be 2/3 Mage positions the others will be warrior. If more people want to join , I'll open up more positions for the Mage characters. [hider=Races Available] [list][*] Human : The main population of Mal'Gar ( the world's name). They can be found everywhere in the world. The Humans were known to be masters of the Life Magic and are only allowed to cast Life Magic. [b]Note : Non-Magi Characters cannot cast spells.[/b] [*] Dark Humans : The Dark Humans are a tall race that appeared after the Magi War near the borders of the Wasteland , a place where death and diseases is as common as a house fly. They are big persons and have a pale skin ( the color of a dead man ) and most of them are bald ( both women and men ). The Dark Humans are the most proficient of all races in the use of Death and Black Magic and are only allowed to cast spells from one of those two magic schools.[b] Note : Non-Magi Characters cannot cast spells.[/b] [*] Kil'garen : The Kil'garen live separate from the Empire being the only race that maintained it's neutrality in the Magi War. 'Thus they are mostly hated by every race. They are humanoid in shape but have a fur all over their skin , got a tail , green eyes and cat-like ears. Even if they live outside Empire territory , they still subject themselves to the laws of the Empire due to being afraid of a invasion. They were known to be masters of Elemental Magic , they have a minor affliction towards Kinetic Magic.[b] Note : Non-Magi Characters cannot cast spells.[/b] [*] Elfan ( Elves ) : The Elfan have the second biggest population before the Humans. They were known to be masters of Nature magic and have a small affliction towards Life Magic. [b]Note : Non-Magi Characters cannot cast spells.[/b] [*] Gargantu : Gargantu is one of the races that is not considered to be fully sentient due to most of it's population to be as dumb as a rock acting only on instinct. Once a few years a smarter Gargantu is born and is immediately caught and sent to the Citadel. The Gargantu are big creatures ( 2.5 m the average height ) with gray skin and big muscles. The few that are born with magical talent were known to be masters of the Kinetic Magic. [b]Note : Non-Magi Characters cannot cast spells.[/b] [/list] [/hider] [hider=Magic Schools and costs of usage] [list][*] Life Magic : Life magic spells are used to heal any wound and condition that someone may had. Complex spells allow the control of unintelligent beings. Cost : A small fraction of the user's life force every time a spell is cast. A complex spell may even kill a person. [*] Death Magic : Death magic spells are used to wage war against everything that is alive. The spells most commonly known are Death Touch , Necromancy ( complex spell ) and Domination ( a spell that allows the user to completely destroy a creature's mind ). The costs of using Death Magic include the use of a person's life force or the life force or other living things around the user. [*] Black Magic : Black Magic is known to be used to create diseases and the corruption of one's soul. The cost of using Black Magic are the same with those of the Death Magic school. [*] Nature Magic : Spells of the Nature Magic school are used to influence the nature. Raise trees out of the ground or kill someone using a poisoned vine are spells that are common between the Nature Magic users. The costs of the usage of this Magic school are the following : consumes a lot of willpower of the user and the user has to see ( the one that the spell is directed towards ) and visualize the exact effect of the spell. [*] Elemental Magic : Spells of this school are used to influence the elements. Be it a fireball or a sudden hurricane a Elemental Mage is known to be a force to be reckoned with. Cost : The Mage has to be in contact with the element he wishes to influence ( to cast a fire spell the user must touch the fire ( it will burn him of course ) ). [*] Kinetic Magic : Similar to the Jedi ( this is just for reference ) powers ( Force Push , Force Pull ). Mages that master this Magic school are known to be able level entire buildings with a mere move of their hands. Cost : Every time a spell is used the user tires himself. Too many spells and they become exhausted and may fall into a coma. [*] Enchantment Magic : A form of magic that is only usable on objects. Any Mage can learn this magic school but in order to master it they would still need to study another Magic school. Costs : Willpower. The user may feel dizzy or have headaches after he casts an enchantment on an object.

Wasteland territory. Red Terrain = Red Sand. Purple Terrain = Dead land. Death feels as home here. Notes about the map and it's places. [hider=Boralis] Boralis was the Magi's capital for as long as history remembered. It was there that the final battle of the Magi War took place. A big stronghold with automated defenses that could kill a man from 500 hundred meters away. The Magi fought to their last man but were finally defeated by Gregory's great , great grandmother by infiltrating the city. She used the army as a distraction , a distraction that killed more than 500000 soldiers in the first hour but one that worked. She used the underwater sewers and got inside Boralis and destroyed the Magi's source of power. It's big towers can still be seen from the entrance of the Wasteland as if a reminder that the Wasteland belonged to the Magi. [/hider] [hider=The Field] Once a city that housed men and women of all races , now long destroyed by the magical energies that creep out of the Wasteland. Before the war it was the a Bazzar-Village for all that wanted to trade in Artifacs , now it is only a shadow of what it was. Many of its buildings were destroyed in the Magi War and haven't been repaired ever since. When the Rapture , also known as the day when the Magi were defeated , happened and the Wasteland was created The Field was affected by a diseases caused by the magical energies that erupted. From a population of 100000 it has now a population of 50000. The Dark Humans as they are called now are known to be immune to this diseases due to being born there but anyone else has a chance of getting infected by one of it's mortal diseases. So , it is avoided by any non-Dark Humans. [/hider] [hider=Mal'garalis] ???. No one knows of it's existence. [/hider] [hider=Important things to know about The Magi] [list][*]When Magi are born they start to release some magical energy. The Empire tracks that energy and finds the mage wherever he/she is. [*]Parents of a mage are killed as soon as the mage is found. Parents from influential families abandon the child as soon as he is detected having magic to avoid defamation , those that don't suffer a harsh blow to their reputation. [*]95% of Magi children are killed as soon as they are found. The other 5% are sent to the Citadel , a stronghold prison where they are raised and then confined to magic dampening cells. [*]Most Magi kill themselves in their cells because they cannot handle the isolation. [*]The Magi cells are like this : Everything is black inside their cell. The only light that comes in the cell is once per day when food is given to the Magi. The cell itself is empty with no bed and wet floor. There is only one hole in the ground that serves as a toilet that opens up once per day at night. [*]The only time Magi interact with each other is only when they are chosen to study magic at the library. Only 1% of the Magi are selected to do so every 6 years. The Magi that were selected before are killed and they switch places with the new Magi. [*]Magi that don't follow orders or become too powerful are killed. They are sent to the Death Row or killed on the spot. [*] If any new questions appear , I'll answer them and add them here.
