Magic, once a hidden art used by secluded groups, has now become widely known. What was once held sacred and practiced in hiding, now appears in advertisements for household goods or used by street performers... And magic has grown in popularity stronger than everywhere else, in one particular country. News of it traveled across the sea, from here, the news spread from country to country.
Kokotha, a new country, a land of opportunity and magic. Casters and humans from other lands sail across the sea to this new country, in search of new life and starting a new. Large machines operating with magic runes and new devices introduced everyday, from new radios, cars, and phones.
New Wickborough, the capital of Kokotha, being the hub for this economic growth
But not everything is perfect in the world. Tensions between Casters, those who see it as a old sacred rite, those who embrace it fully, and people using magic for unsavory purposes.
The Old Path, high in the mountains to the north, rejecting the modern ways. The Universal Machine, always in the spotlight. The Black Hats, hiding in the depths. The mercenary Golden Boys, the White Tooth Men and their secret operations, the reclusive Pride living in the wild, and the Wanderers, whom yet to find their path.
New life, new opportunities, new groups, new inventions, a new country, and old magic.
OOC
So what is Kokotha?
Kokotha is a roleplay canon started by me way back in late September of last year, started on the roleplay forums of Ponychan. After picking up speed and a story forming, the canon has now moved over to the Guild; for reasons I won't really go into. Despite its original site, the canon has no relation to the series.
The world of Kokotha is a turn of the century era roleplay with fantasy elements. Cowboys and mafiosos using magic, steampunk elements here and there, and your typical turn of the century styles such as jazz, prohibition, speakeasies, and economic growth.
Rules
1. Don’t be a dick. No harassment of people in the canon or outside of the canon. Just be respectful to your follow roleplayers. This is the most important rule.
2. You can post after you’ve submitted a sheet. The sheet will be reviewed and, if approved, you may roleplay.
3. Before you want to invite someone to the roleplay or the discord, ask me first. You'll be able to invite people to the Discord once you submit a sheet that's been approved.
4. Low to High Casual writing skill is expected. This isn’t a canon that is going to judge you on how well you RP and you don’t need to write a wall of text everytime you post. Just be sure to give your partner enough to work with.
5. You don’t need to consistently roleplay to be a member; we’re not going to reject you for not doing anything. If you want down time you can just chat in the roleplay and talk with people.
6. Respect the rules of the site.
