This rp would take place in a mythical world similar to modern day with some key exceptions such as the presence of magic, daemons, higher deities, and a few advancements in technology. And to be quite honest, I’m not good at pitching an idea in a paragraph or two, so please check out the sections I’ve made to explain the world and the story that would play out! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
*Looking for committed roleplayers that will be willing to help form the story with me
Setting
The world of Unitatis is comprised of three continents: Fortitudo, Temperantia, and Iustitia. The northeastern land of Fortitudo possesses a powerful crystal, which was gifted by the gods in antiquity to the reigning Caelum dynasty. Temperantia, located in the south, is made up of islands and has been annexed by the Iustitian empire, which lies to the west and benefits from its advanced technology. The province of Sapientia is under Iustitia's control, but maintains some autonomy due to the presence of the oracle, a priestess who has the power to fight a plague that turns people and animals into vicious daemons. Watching over Unitatis are the divine beings that can appear in the mortal realm, usually as colossal and powerful beings known as the Deorum.
For hundreds of years Fortitudo and Iustitia have been at war. While many lands have been lost to the empire, the Fortitudan capital of Somnium remains untouched due to the Murus, a barrier maintained by the king and the crystal's magic. Peace talks have begun in hopes of bringing an end to the conflict, one of the conditions being a marriage of Prince Adam and Lady Eliana, the oracle.
For the most part, the story will focus around our heroes venturing around the world during this time of war in hopes of finding a way to turn the tide back in their favor. There will be side stories that mix into the main plot as well, such as the curious existence of daemons in the world. I also have a general idea of where I would like the story to go, but I would greatly like for participants to actively give ideas and help form the story along with me. We’re all participating, so it would be more fun to make a story we’re all happy to be a part of.
Our Heroes' Story
Adam Elissium, a power mage due to his lineage, travels to the capital city of Temperentia, where he is to meet his childhood friend, Lady Eliana. During the trip, he learns the Iustitian empire has attacked his home, the City of Somnium, killed his father as well as stolen the sacred crystal. Together with his friends and assigned protectors, Adam seeks out members of the Royal Guard who may have survived to aid them in the battles to come. Little does he know that this will take him and his friends on an adventure all across Unitatis with many battles to come.
I would be playing Adam Elisium as well as some other NPC’s that would come and go throughout the rp. I am looking for 3 other characters (1 character per participant, and then NPC’s later down the line depending) to be his close friends and assigned protectors. Each character would, of course, have their own unique set of skills, whether it be magic, weaponry, etc. I really don’t have any restrictions when it comes to magic or weapons, although just keep it realistic to an extent. AKA the character cannot be indestructible/invincible. On top of their strengths, the characters should have very notable flaws and weaknesses. For example, though Adam Elisium is a powerful mage who is capable of powerful spells and a large variety of them. That being said, he has very minimal physical combat skills, and his cockiness often leads to openings and, essentially, dumb mistakes. (I will be putting up a CS for this character soon, just touching up some things).
