Two rival kingdoms lay in ruin, their lands poisoned by blight and the sky plunged into eternal darkness. Out of desperation, an alliance is forged. An arranged marriage between the Prince of Aurelia, the Sun Kingdom, and Princess of Lunaris, the Moon Kingdom, is decreed, meant to unite the fractured lands against the encroaching darkness. The union of these two is prophesied to bring forth a child, the Eclipsian Guardian, destined to save the world from the blight that consumes it and return the sun to the sky. However, this marriage has also been ordered as an offering to the Goddesses of Sun and Moon; Aelios and Seluna. Should the Gods allow the Eclipsian Guardian to be born, the chosen ones would then sacrifice their lives.

In a desperate bid to appease the gods and keep his life, the Prince persuades his people to forgo their traditional sacrifices. Instead, he proposes the establishment of a new colony with his betrothed that would live at the blight's edge. This settlement aims to research and find a cure for the blight while he and the Princess forge a new future for the anticipated Eclipsian Guardian. This arrangement still sacrifices their lives and many others if they do not find a cure by the time the poison creeps in, but it does buy the Prince and Princess time. Both kingdoms endorsed this plea, granting permission for the royal couple to recruit individuals from each realm to aid in building the colony. Those summoned by the royal decree must depart their kingdoms' safety or face death.

The prince's actions have not only potentially condemned hundreds to the blight's grasp, but also endangered the very essence of their lineage. In settlements ravaged by the poison, most perish, yet a rare few endure, undergoing a metamorphosis. From this crucible arises a new humanoid, infused with vampire-like attributes that grant resilience against the blight's onslaught. Yet, this newfound resilience comes at a cost, as those residing within the blight's shadow are reviled as monstrous entities, cast out from society and hunted down for extermination.

Now, adventurers from all walks of life are drawn to the new settlement, their motivations varied but united by a common goal: to find a cure for the blight and restore daylight to the sky. Amidst the challenges of their quest, they must also grapple with the profound changes wrought by the blight, including the emergence of the new vampire humanoids. As the colony strives to embrace their new life and allies, they traverse treacherous landscapes and uncover the secrets of the blight, acutely aware that the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

I will flesh this out more later with world lore, etc. Just wanted to get a read on if people are interested before I go further.

I plan to play the role of the Prince. Let me know if you have any questions! :)

The Official RP Here

Sounds interesting :)

Boop.

Will their be a guide to what kinda races are involved?

Like is it general fantasy allowed, elves, dwarvs etc? Or more niche ones like having a Lamina or Naga, like the lizard race in skyrim, and others with obvious non human features.

So there will only be humans in order to hold up why pepple are so afraid of the new vampire-like creatures (they'll be dubbed "blight-born" in the RP).

But the humans will be able to use magic of various types and the higher status in society you are, the more resources there are available to study and learn how to control the magic.

Each kingdom will have specialties in certain types of magic as well.

Count me in! I saw this in the general interest check form but I will put my interest here for it as well.

I'll have the RP up tomorrow! Just making some finishing touches to it tonight :)

Here's the link! roleplayerguild.com/topics/192485-rea…

Bumping this in case anyone else might be interested in joining. Still accepting new characters :)

Hey~hey

Ill have to take the time to read fully on the rp before committing. Hey anyway to provide a tldr of whats been happening currently?

@Girlie Go Boom

I'll give you the run-through!

Everyone is being introduced currently to the setting.

Prince Flynn and Octavia's arranged marriage is beginning to become less tense

Prince Flynn was interviewing Kira the blight born into Dawnhaven

Olivia, a blgith born Queen, has arrived in Dawnhaven and is in the tavern socializing with the inn keeper Syraeia

Syraeia is being taught by Sunni on how to do her job.

Sunni is hiding away from Prince Flynn and Princess Octavia for a variety of reasons.

Ivor came back from a hunt with food, yay!

Orion is playing chess by himself and decided to leave his corridors, finally.

Elara, the hand maiden to the princess, is listening to the princesses orders and heading to the inn.

Olivia and Syraeia are talking and getting a little intimate when it comes to blight-born activities - most likely feeding off each other (aka Olivia feeding off Syraeia because Olivia is an emotional blight born)

Royal knights and throne agents have arrived at Lunaris for suspicious reasons.

Pleiades has currently returned to Dawnhaven and he is being a menace.

Eris and Sunni are interacting because Eris is asking about her package and its status/arrival.

Pleiades interrupted Eris and Sunni.

Thank you @The Savant!

@Girlie Go Boom People are mostly still getting their characters introduced so you haven't missed anything too important yet!

Also, in the Character tab, I have a story notes section that will be helpful too.

BUMP!

Bump

If there is still room available, I’d like to throw my hat into the ring. Nothing like getting back into it then jumping in the deep end, right?
