The people who will be participating in this roleplay have been invited prior to the creation of this thread, if you have not received such an invite, you are not eligible to join at this moment. Thank you for reading this disclaimer. [b]Synopsis:[/b] Palisade Town is a relatively small town on the frontier-outskirts of the nation. It's named after the wooden palisade that surrounds and keeps the settlement safe from the dangers and monsters outside. Thankfully, nothing too threatening dwells in the immediate vicinity of the town, so it's a perfect location for new, untested adventurers to come and begin their careers - and this is where you come in. Be it that you graduated from an academy, completed your training at a temple, left your rural village, finished your studies with your master or just happened tos tumble into town, your days as a fresh-faced and budding rookie adventurer are about to begin! The time has come to sign up at the Guild, take on quests, grow strong and forge your very own, enduring legend! ... Or die pathetically in the very first week, whichever comes first. Weapons, armor, magic, treasure, adventure, dungeons and monsters all await you! ... And goblins. Lots and lots of goblins. Like, seriously, scores upon scores of the little blighters. [hr][b]Rules & Regulations:[/b] Please follow these rules, to ensure everyone is having a good time! 1. No Meta-Gaming. If [b]you[/b] know something your [i]character[/i] doesn't, then they [b]don't know it.[/b] 2. No Character-Controlling. Don't take control or make another prson's character do something - let them act or react on their own. Be patient. 3. No Power-Gaming. You are not invulnerable, unhittable, inexhaustable or otherwise impervious. If you get hurt, you bleed and feel pain. If you get hungry, you want food. If you get poisoned, you will grow weaker and weaker and possibly die. There are no Kryptonians here. 4. No Prior-Knowing. You are not Goblin Slayer. You are not Spearman or Witch. You are a fresh, new, inexeprienced adventurer who has not gone on any (or at least not many) quests yet. You don't know the best way to defeat monsters, nor have you learned the best stratgeies or tactics. Those will come with time, not be present at the start. 5. Be Civil. Discussing, arguing and disagreeing is fine, just be sure to not start outright insulting or bashing each other. Be constructive and resonable towards each other. 6. Have fun! We're all in this to enjoy ourselves. If something is irking you or you're not feeling the desire to keep going, speak up! We'll try to work something out. 7. If your character dies, you may rejoin as a new character of the same (or lower) Adventuring Rank as the character who perished. But you may not join as a higher-ranked character.
