I really dig this setting and the characters that have already been submitted. While my writing skills are a bit rusty, I would love to give this a go.

A few questions that may or may not be necessary to answer:

1. How do you, and can you kill an undead?
2. What is the source of necrotic power in this world?
3. Are there any gods/religions of note?
4. What currency if any is circulated?

Thanks!

Urgun and his Order of the Savior have come to take the largest island in the Meridions their home. On this island lies the port city of Luminara. Once it was the gem of the north...The city is perpetually kept clean by undead unfit for combat. Their task is to keep the city in immaculate condition. Urgun aims to make Luminara an image of Amonth’s heavenly kingdom.

Hello! I find the premise of this roleplay absolutely intriguing. One question - would I be allowed to control both a Revenant Major and Minor? I came up with two ideas I really enjoy for characters, but I then realized they would be even better as foils to each other that frequently had to rub elbows(or, in this instance, humerus...es? Humeri?).

This looks interesting! I've deliberated over it for a couple days. I'd like to make a revenant minor that'll be reaninated for my first post - is anyone who plays a revenant major looking for a lackey?

I'll make the sheet ASAP that'll depict who she'll be but I'm thinking some sort of tactician with a sword, capable of light armoured/mounted combat as well as an advisor for her superior(s). Unflinchingly loyal but also getting to grips with undeath so she's a bit more lively than most.

Edit: finished the sheet.

The Silver Blade (name TBD) [+]

Name: The Silver Blade

Rank: Revenant minor

Description: Her hair is a striking coppery red whilst her skin retains a shiny silvery-brown complexion - both clear signs of peat preservation. With the pads of fat that typically accentuated a woman's attributes long since rotted away, the flesh crafter's stitchwork has pulled the skin taut against the sinewy bone and muscle and cut off the excess, leaving her flat-chested, only slightly wider at the hips than her comrades and less weatherbeaten than most.

Whatever is left of this knight has been carefully crafted and sculpted to emphasize femininity. Her armour has been embossed with flowers and branches, pinched at the waist and curved at the back. The hairs of innumerable women and children dyed in the bogs and punched into her scalp to give her a long set of flowing locks, albeit at a receded hairline to prevent any stray strands from obscuring her vision. Her clothes are colourful, bright and painstakingly embroidered with long flowing skirts. She's adorned with chain tiaras, bracelets, necklaces and rings. Despite her undeath, she's been deliberately crafted to resemble an echo of the living.

Background: Not much is truly known about The Silver Blade. It was something of a pet project for Eagoth to collect persons of note and preserve them for future purpose, making the unknown lady one of hundreds kept in stasis across the kingdom. She's spent the last decade or so locked in a stone coffin, suspended in peat and embalming fluid with a small contingency of ghouls maintaining her physically whilst the necrotic energies that ought to give her sapience glowed dim behind her watery eyes.

What the records do show is that she was somewhat of a nuisance at court. Through methods unknown she had risen from nothingness to advisor of a long-forgotten lord, the latter's name and achievements scrubbed from the annals of history in a mix of inevitable property damage stemming from the war in Leria and a deliberate attempt to expunge him from the archives. She may not have lead his troops, but it was her whispering in the ears of his captain. She did not own the estate but she attended all the meetings that he did. She grew fond and close with allies and rivals alike then returned at the call of her master to reveal her findings. What her honeyed words couldn't accomplish, her silver rapier made up for it. Someone so flippant and frivolous with the secrets of men in power inevitably found herself becoming a keen combatant and wary soul, though evidently not wary enough. Perhaps it's no surprise at all that Eagoth's servants found her, identifiable through her ornate armour, buried in a bog beyond the bridge with her throat slashed open. She couldn't have been older than thirty.

Her achievements didn't warrant the privilege of becoming a Revenant Major but she could have been worth more than a ghoul. Her name and her feats are listed in a catalogue of these persons of note with a brief description of the brainwashing techniques used to detach her loyalties from her living superior, leaving her in a comatose state until a new lord could fill his place.

Wards(If applicable): N/A

Was it something I said?

Hello, @gorgenmast!
It was suggested that I check out this thread by some of the Precipice at War people, since I mentioned I was craving some solid Fantasy RP, but that leads me to a question or two, if you don't mind answering them. Of course, if you want to leave the questions unanswered, let me know.

1. You mention the setting as being based in Middle Fantasy, and that the focus is not on nonhuman Fantasy races - I was curious about the wording of this. Does this mean that, say, races like Elves are not playable, simply that they're quite rare and should remain as such, or something else? In other words, are they playable, or would that be too... Special?

2. In regard to dissent against Eagoth, you mention the lack of success of open revolt - what about less obvious forms of resistance? Isolated guerillas, for example, or even simply people that are choosing to not participate in Eagoth's rule. As a followup, if any of this less overt resistance exists, would it be exclusively conducted by the risen dead? The impression I got was that living folk aren't really a thing in these lands anymore, at least not in any relevant capacity.

3. What of schools of magic outside of Destruction? I'm particularly curious about some of those that can have comparatively overt effects as Destruction - conjuration, for example. Is summoning at all viable, as rare as magic is in general? What of enchanting?

4. I'm also curious if non-'Arcane traditions of magic are/can exist; i.e. magic derived from a divine source, druidry, so on and so forth.

Thanks for your time!

Hey this looks really interesting, and I wonder if you are still accepting. I'm thinking of a general or minor king who was betrayed in life before he could make his stand against the undead(possibly by callidus idk). In death he has kept his discipline and pride because in his mind he never lost to the necromancer. He requires all of his "soldiers" to look presentable just like in life. This now includes polishing bones and such like that. For appearance wise him and his I'll would look something like the ossiarch bonereapers from AoS. Such as they all appear mostly uniform and still wear armor, but it is now made from bone. That is all I have so far.
