Chessia. A world of magic and wonder. But also a world ruled by pure evil. Ages ago, Chessia was ruled by a council of 2 kings, 2 queens, 2 bishops, 2 rooks, and 2 knights. The council was known as the Chessboard. The Chessboard ruled over the citizens of Chessia, known as pawns, and peace was held for years. That is, until the Era of Crucin. Crucin and his army struck Chessia from nowhere, eliminating the Chessboard and seizing control for himself. Many brave souls wanted to fight back, and they formed the Chessboard Rebellion. One of the members of the rebellion, a wizard by the name of Vitria, discovered a prophecy. The prophecy told of the return of the Chessboard in the form of 10 youths, each with the control of one element. And it seems Vitria's prophecy was correct. Because today 10 children were discovered in the forests of Algeran and were brought to the headquarters of the Chessboard rebellion. Today the Era of Crucin sees the beginning of the end.

Basically there will be 5 girls, and 5 guys most of which know eachother. Each will have control over one element. These 10 elements will be: Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Light, Darkness, Electricity, Ice, Flora, and Sound. Yes Flora is different from Earth and Ice different from Water. The main plot would be defeating Crucin and if we got that far, I have ideas for more. So what do you guys think?

Why abandon the chess motif at the last moment? You had something good there and then you went cliche.

How about:
Rooks, super strong and resilient
Knights, fast and agile, capable of running as fast as a horse, masters of the blade
Bishop: Capable of firing creating an energy shield to protect themselves or others and healing
The Queen: The Sorceress, capable of hurling elemental bolts but can't make shields
The King: Can summon ten shadowy warriors, also can command mortals and even one chessman but has to concentrate completely on the chessman

Sorry. I meant to add that the 10 would become the new Chessboard. I don't want it to be completely abandoned and I'll probably assign the elements to a piece once I see more interest

This sounds pretty interesting. I'd probably join this, as long as I got to pick my element.

Cool! I may or may not assign the elements to a piece but the piece you are will not affect your skills.

Alright. PM me when you start the thread, and I'll be there :)

I definitely want to be a part of this

Cool

Is this still on?

I'm interested. And if we are able to pick our elements, I would like to be light.

Oh, count me in, that idea somehow remind me one of my internal monologues.

Ok I'm gonna make the OOC now
