Athea is what we call home.

Sure, it might have its downfalls, but it still gives us food and shelter despite the other deadlier creatures that reside here with us. The three Houses-- Nocturne, Dawnspear, and Silvergale --do not resort to war, even though they fight constant battles with their sharp tongues and devious whispers.

We dragons have inhabited Athea for well over a thousand years, or so they say. All we have ever known are the Three Houses that divide most of the known continent and thus others' allegiances and the existence of our deity, Ouroboros.

But times are coming to a change. New faces have traveled across the Clouded Sea upon ships made of wood and steel. Humans, they call themselves. And, apparently, they come in peace.

- Five to six dedicated, active, and overall friendly players that will make more than one (or possibly two) characters (active, to me at least, means posting once every two to three days). Perhaps I will allow an increase in group size, depending on how many people I see are dedicated enough.

- People who are literate. I'm not talking about a group of six Shakespeares, as everyone makes mistakes, but please, don't come here if you can't even form an unintelligible set of paragraphs.

- People who will plot with players and with me.

- People who will not only be active in the IC, but active in the out of character thread.

These rules are put into place due to the fact of going through the terrible cycle of starting an awesome RP only to have it die within a month over and over again.

NOTE: if I recognize your name and know that you don't follow the above "rules", I will most likely not accept you into the RP.
NOTE: DO NOT POST IN HERE IF YOU KNOW THAT YOU WILL NOT FOLLOW THE SAID RULES ABOVE.

Interested. I'll be keeping an eye out for an OOC

Font Meme?

Yeah the coding expired. I gotta fix it when I get back on comp.

Color me interested.

Nice!

I'm interested.

I'm interested :)

Nice!

Bump.

So is this an original universe, or a fandom thing?

Original? I don't think there's anything that's existing that's like this. :o

Cool, so tell us about the three houses, what are the differences between them, who rules each, etc?

Are you born into your house, like it's a familial line thing, or can you defect?

How big are dragons? Are they capable of artistry, forging etc? Do they build houses, or live in caves?

Can we play as humans? What technology level are the humans, and what is their society like?

Why has nobody ever flown across the sea? Did nobody know what was over there?

There's a reference to other dangerous creatures living on Athea, what are they? Is it meant to be that they are dangerous to dragons?

How long do dragons live?

Do they have writing, or just a sort of oral tradition?

Any other expansions on our knowledge of this world would be appreciated.

EDIT: Oh, is there magic? Or are dragons purely biological creatures? Do they all breath fire, or maybe some have different breaths?

I'd be interested in this, I think.

I still haven't fully fleshed out the Houses yet, but I know that there will be a House that rules the north, one that rules the south, and one that rules the east.

Dragons with noble blood must reside within their own House. For instance the son of the Lord of Nocturne will have to reside in Nocturne, at least originally. The rest can defect and pledge alliegences to other Houses.

Dragons, in their feral forms, are about the size and length of a school bus. In their human forms, they're able to read, write, dance, forge, etc.

Humans will be playable and will have medieval level technology and a medieval form of living.

No one flew over the Clouded Sea mostly because of fear; everyone who has flown across it has never come back, thus they don't know what's across it.

Wyverns, chimeras, sirens, and even other dragons can pose a threat to dragons.

Dragons live hundreds of years. But their physical appearance stops changing when they start to look like they're in their mid 30s.

Dragons have writing due to be able to write in their human forms.

Dragons cannot cast magic and their only type of breath is fire.

Do all dragons have a human form? Or are there "wild" dragons as well?

Is either form considered "primary"? Maybe that's a difference between the houses, maybe one values their humanity and another their draconinty. The third might take a middle path.

But that's probably too simplistic.

All dragons have a human form. And I'm afraid that's not possible as it actually goes against the biology of dragons themselves.

That was a question about mindset, not any literal physical trait.

I dunno. Maybe I'll take into consideration. ^^

Interested. I like me sum dragoons.

@Ambra Could we be different Dragons such as Chimeras, Chinese style dragons, or Wingless/Water Dragons?
