Welcome to Arkanshire, a land of heroes and untold power. It is a peaceful land, with on King and Queen who rule from the capital city. No wars, no enemies, a true land of peace and happiness. That is for a time. Every hundred years, the "Nightmare" awakens, opening a portal to the land of the gods. Those who are very brave, or very foolish, can enter these lands. A one way trip, those who enter try to earn the ultimate prize. You see, once the "Nightmare" awakens, the gods are now able to be killed, and any god that is killed, needs to be replaced. When you enter this land, called Arkanshire Dream, you enter in a life or death game. Will you become a new god? Or will your bones be added to the throne of the gods?

Rules
* Remember that this is a dark fantasy RP. Which means, there will be a few things that make it 18+, mainly gore and language, with some sexual content. With that being said, remember to stay within the rules of the site. Use "fade to black" when needed and all that. Also, and this is very important, characters can and will die. So be ready for that. If you die, and want to keep playing, feel free to make another character.
* Don't not take control of someone's character. You have your character and they have theirs. Collaborative post are welcomed.
* I am the GM, so my word is law. Kyrisse is my CO-GM, so she has some control as well.
* Do not post until I or Kyrisse approve your character. Once you are approved, then make your post atleast a paragraph long, but longer post are welcomed as well.
* Once you have been approved, you can start posting. After you make a post, please do not make another until Kyrisse or I have tagged you in a post to tell you what is going on in the world around you. If you're character is about to die, I will send you a pm, giving you one last chance to save your character, and make an answer post to inform you of the world so that you can try to figure out a way to survive. (There will always be a way to survive. Look at what I post, as the details hold clues about what will happen.) See below for an example on how that will work. (For some extra fun, try to figure out a way for the character to survive in the example. Post it on your character sheet. This is for fun only, so if you do not want too, don't worry about it.)
* If, for some reason, I will be unable to post for awhile, then Kyrisse will have control over who lives and who dies. So make friends with her, it may save you lol.
* Below is a list of gods. NOT EVERY god is reveled, so if you meet a god in the RP, and it isn't on the list, congrats! You have discovered a god (if you play as a demigod and wants to be the child of a certain god but don't see it on the list, pm me. 9/10 times we can work something out.) Also, a god's name will not be on the list unless someone learns it. Why don't you start the game knowing their names? Because a person's name holds power. With a person's name, you can learn their history. Who they loved, what they did for a living, what their weakness is.
* Last, but not least, have fun. We are all here to make a story and have fun.

Example
Me: You enter an old room, the floor creaking as you walk. You notice a beast nearby, but it hasn't notice you. Above the beast, a large church bell hangs, as if tempting you. You look on a nearby wall to see a rope with a hook holding the bell in place. The rusty hook could be removed, or broken, to drop the bell, but that could take time. Cutting the rope will guarantee the bell to fall, killing or trapping the beast.

(At this point, the player would get a pm from me, informing them that they may die)

Player: I slowly walk to the rope, pulling out my knife. I start to cut the rope, and once it is done, I quickly move away from the rope.

Me: You cut the rope with no issue, and the large bell falls. The beast notices too late as the bell falls ontop of it, killing it almost instantly. But sadly, the floor cannot hold the weight of the bell, and starts cracking and snapping, breaking away. You were unable to get away quick enough, and fall into the pit, breaking your legs. The sound of the bell crashing, and your screams of pain, have caught the attention of more beast living in the basement. You are lucky, as these beast prefer to kill their prey quickly, and not toy with them. You have died.

Races (we may add more later. Feel free to pm me or Kyrisse your race idea)

Character Sheet

Race:
Height:
Appearance: (I would prefer a photo. You can however use whatever kind of picture you would like to use. Real, anime, video game, they are all good.)
Weapon of choice: Sword? Axe? Magic? What feels right to you?
Occupation: (what was your job before entering the Dream? Bounty Hunter? Blacksmith? Fisherman? This info will help me figure out ways to help your character survive in the world)
Lore: This is your history. What do we need to know about your character?
Extra Info: something about your appearance that we don't see in the picture? This is where you can tell us all about it. Or anything else you think we need to know.

I see your Reinhardt in that character sheet ;)

I'm off to make the sheet for a Demigod character. I plan to make her the daughter of the Goddess of Luck and either a shapeshifter or a Valkyrie. Which would be more probable? Or hell, a dwarf if neither of those two would work. Cheers!

[@Leoven 2016431146]

He and Reaper are my favorites lol.

Out of those two, the one that would make sense (for reasons I won't say but I'm sure could easily be figured out) would be to have her as a Valkyrie, if she is the daughter of a goddess. So her race would be demigod, and in your lore (history) you can talk about her living among other the Valkyrie.

@Ado
Your character is approved. After I make the opening post in the IC, feel free to start posting. But please add a height to your character. (I know it doesn't matter a whole lot, but if I let you get away with it and get onto someone else for not doing it, it causes drama.)

@SirSqueakalot91 Lmao, I hope we were supposed to submit Characters to the Characters tab, but there is it. It's a skeletal character, to be built up in the RP, hope it's okay if I don't have a too terribly developed backstory.

EDIT: Oh lmao, I'll correct it right away! Didn't see that line for some reason...
EDIT II: All fixed up!

@Ado

That's fine, it makes sense for your character to have a secret backstory (aka not fully developed lol). And thanks for fixing that.

Just read through all the posts... I think a valkyrie would fit your plan perfectly. ^_^

Hmmm... I think the concept I've come up would best fit to be a shapeshifter. I'll have it up for your approval as soon as I finish writing it, @SirSqueakalot91

@Ado@Leoven @Kyrisse

You are both approved, Kyrisse all I need if for your character to be put in the character tab. I'll have the first IC post up soon, so if your character is approved, you can start posting when I do.

I have sent you all a pm with the location that the portal drops you in. I have given you all choices of what you can do. None of you will die from your opening post, and none of you are together, but you maybe close to one another. This RP could be played with you guys working as a team, or never meeting one another. Enjoy.

@Oni_

Approved. I'll be sending you a pm if where your character will start in the Dream, and some choices she can make. Make your choice in your first post.

Also, there is a good chance I'll have a couple of new races be ready to add once I get off work, and I'll be playing a second character based off one of these races. If anyone else would like to play a second character, that is fine. Fill out another character sheet and add it to your existing one, do not post a second sheet on its own. Makes it easier for me to keep track of everything.

@SirSqueakalot91 I might be interested in playing a secondary character depending on what these races are. If not now, then later, but that sounds chill.

I'll have a new post up when I get home from work, and the new races added.

Update: Still working on the races, but will have two up and ready to go in a sec, and then will start on a post. Thanks for all the patience.

Update: Two new races added, with more on the way. Please pm me if you have questions on how they play. Will start working on the next post, and that will either be up before or after I get some sleep. Sorry it's taking so long, but I am off work for a few days, so we will get things moving along at a faster rate for abit.

I'll have a post up later, sorry about the slight delay. I'm about to travel home from Cornwall after a week so the last day or so has been filled with ensuring everyone's packed.

I have a router thing in the car though and I'm not driving so I'll type something up then.
