Lost and Forgotten: A Mentor's Legacy
Arthur Montgomery is a man known among the scientific and archaeologist community as a polarizing individual. While many would reflect positively on Arthur's dedication to discovering the truth about the past, most would negatively remark on his behavior in his later years. Seemly obsessed to prove his fringe theories about history that left him shunned from the scientific and archaeologist community. Labelling him as a conspiracy theorist and disapproving of anything that went against accepted knowledge about the past.
Did this deter Arthur? No, this only strengthened his resolve for Arthur is not crazy. He did discover something that suggested something else, a lost past, but the relic that indicated this was shattered into pieces and left useless after Arthur spent some time studying it. So, he used what was left of his family's fortune to uncover the truth.
Only Arthur is dead, he died of a heart attack, and now his work lies incomplete. But, in his will, he leaves his estate and his fortune not to his remaining family but to five people once they complete a task. These five people are those that Arthur took under his wing and had a good relationship with. The hope that Arthur has if he dies before he can unveil the truth that he was desperately seeking. That these five people can continue what he started and do what he could not.
Starting within his estate and dealing with an artifact that he was studying.

Overview
Hello and welcome to the rp. The rp is about a group of five, maybe six people who have opted to continue Arthur Montgomery's work and discover the lost past of the world. A lost history that few know about. So the rp will explore both real-world myths and homebrew custom ones. I should say that the rp is inspired by Indiana Jones, Uncharted and Tomb Raider.
Now, Arthur's estate will act as the base and home for the group and will be the place where the characters will spend their time in between treks and it is located in the United Kingdom, specifically in Bristol. Plus, this will be the place where the group's artifacts will be stored after a trek. As you will discover, Arthur before he died, installed an expensive security system at his home estate that would make any potential burglars think twice about trying to break in.
But as to your character's reason for continuing Arthur's mission. In the first arc, there will be an event that happens that will prove that Arthur's theories had merit, and they can come up with their own reasons for wanting to continue Arthur's mission after that.
Plus, while it is required that your character had a good relationship with Arthur and had been taken under his wing at some point in order to warrant him trusting your character with his mission. You can decide what exactly that means, as in how Arthur helped your character and what he did to make your character have a good relationship with him despite his reputation. Basically, why did he choose you to be in his will and think you could continue his mission.
Also, for your character's picture, go with a real-life face claim. No anime or drawn pictures.
Along with I am looking for a co-gm to help me with treks and what not. So if you interested just say something.
That is it, and if anyone has any questions, then feel free to ask.
