This is a very flexible story, with endless options.
Choose a faction and fight for the Kingdom of Vahara.




The Kingdom of the Night, has stood strong from outside forces for centuries. When the most deadly threat of all, was in the kingdom all along. Bellatrix, The Mad Queen, was crowned under the circumstance that her mother passed away. Rumor has it, that Bellatrix poisoned her mother in order to gain control of the kingdom.
Bellatrix, is often called the prophet of Vahara by her soldiers. She is believed to be the chosen one to rule, in place of the gods. She plans to rule all of Vahara with an iron fist, and pay for her own sins with the suffering of others.


Born in the twenty-four days that the first sun and second sun both radiate upon Vahara. The conjurers only make up a sixteenth of the population. On the coronation day of Bellatrix, The Mad Queen, a new regulation was passed that identified all Conjurers as a threat to society. Any child born during this week was to be taken into custody by knights of the Queen. Struck with fear and anger, the Conjurers relocated and used their magic to conceal themselves in the forest .

Utilizing only the powers the gods have given them, and the resources of the earth. They have managed to create a peaceful utopia, in which Conjurers can hide away. Their population decreases though, as they haven’t had a new conjurer in three years.


Once citizens of the kingdoms, the brotherhood gave up their former Identity’s. They seek to end the hierarchy of the kingdoms and spread the wealth to the citizens. Visually confirmed by their black cloaks, and creatively designed white mask. They are a group now identified as terrorist by both kingdoms, only hiding in the shadows.

The time for action has come for the brotherhood though. The Citizens of The Mad Kingdom, are starving as the Queen relaxes in the throne. Assassinate the nobles, and risk your own life in the process.

Name origin: Named after his father.

Faction: Conjurers
Affiliation: Good
Backstory:
Merek is the son of a high ranking prophet within the monastery that worships the seven gods of the kingdoms. His father was the only member of the monastery allowed to mate as the prophet bloodline had to keep going or the monastery would be left without a proper leader designated. As a result, Merek was to be appointed prophet after his father passed away. He grew up under the teachings of the monastery. He learned their holy book off by heart by the age of eight and found his true calling by the age of 10. He was adept at fighting with the battle monks and yearned to become one. His father was extremely wary of any harm that could happen to Merek if he took on the training, but Merek was determined to convince his father it was worth it. Eventually his father gave in, but with the catch that Merek couldn't whine about the rigorous training and had to continue to learn the religious teachings after he had finished his training. Merek was ecstatic and couldn't wait to begin.

His teacher was as brutal as a war seasoned military general. He pushed Merek to his physical and mental limits to the point that he even dislocated Merek's arm at one point. Merek was determined to become one of the greatest battle monks in the monastery. His dream was reached around the time he was 17. His training was complete and he was a fully fledged battle monk. There was only one problem, to be qualified to actually defend the monastery as an official battle monk Merek would have to make a pilgrimage to find something of value and bring it back to the monastery. An old tradition that never faded. He packed his bags and left, carrying only rations, a small amount of gold and his Bible.

He made his way through many villages, meeting many people and telling them of his Bible in exchange for their tales from their lives. His pilgrimage took a lot longer than he thought it would though. Every time he found something worth any value it always went wrong. Something always disrupted the plan, whether it be a bandit or a rockslide. It took Merek years to find his object of value, but when he did it was fantastic. He had found a man-made cavern, filled with abandoned mining equipment and torches. He took a pickaxe and began to mine in one of the tunnels. He never knew what compelled him to do it, he just felt as if something had to be behind the walls of the tunnels that made the miners leave their pickaxes and torches just lying around. He soon found out what had actually made them leave.

A giant behemoth of a monster stood before him, composed of the rock and dirt that Merek stood on. The fight was long and painful, Merek only won by a birth right that had been hidden from him for years. As it turns out, Merek was born in the eighth month and his father had hidden this to keep Merek in the running for prophet. Merek was on his last legs when something amazing happened. He conjured a blast of pure energy that penetrated the monsters skull and left it for dead. Merek took its skin as prize and returned home.

He regaled the monastery with his tales of adventure and his battle with the monster. The stone skin was accepted and Merek was finally a fully fledged battle monk. His head was shaven and the symbols of the monastery were tattooed on his forehead. Things were to take a turn for the worst when the mad queen came into rule though. Because of Merek's openness about his magic and the monastery's close friendship with the conjurer culture, the Mad Queen targeted the monastery for demolition. Merek was out getting the monasteries weekly food stock when the raid happened. He returned to the burnt corpses of children and the fire that engulfed the monastery slowly rising. He leaped into the burning building to look for survivors. He was met with the mad queen's goons stabbing his father. In a fit of rage he snapped their necks before they could react.

He began running after that, never turning back. He made his way to the conjurer utopia and has stayed there ever since. He teaches all who wish to learn about his religion or about his fighting skills.

Larfleeze said
I'm not writing my Name yet, because I have no idea if normal names like Daniel or Bruce are allowed Like I don't want a name like that if everyone's name is GELTREX or HEIMSHANK, you feel me?

I suppose this is a follow the leader thing, but you're allowed to have basically any name. ( Use discretion. )

DIBS ON BEING THE GUY WITH HEAVY ARMOR AND A SHIELD. I assume having a face-concealing helmet will do for a mask? Also, would people be able to play conjurers who are members of the brotherhood?

As of right now, Conjurers and the brotherhood are separate. They have different values, and a different cause. Later on you may be able to join the brotherhood as a conjurer, based on your characters storyline.

Character Appearance:

Birth Name: Katrina Leyal
Name origin: Katrina was named after her grandmother.
Alias: The Red Blade
Gender: Female
Skin tone: Peach
Hair Color: Red
Eye Color: Amber
Height: 5' 10"
Body Build: Average
Faction: Mad Queen
Affiliation: Neutral, although her actions may lead her to be mistaken as evil.

Backstory: In the kingdom of the night, Katrina was born into a family of nobles. Her father had died a few months before her birth, and so her mother had taken over the family's assets as head, much to her step-siblings dismay. Katrina was a happy child, getting most of the things she wanted as her family was well off. She learned her swordsmanship from her uncle, who had no children of his own to teach. Katrina was a talented fighter, and aspired to join the royal knights long before she was aware with the politics of it, and before Bellatrix had seized control. When she came of age, the baster sword became her weapon of choice. The one she wields now is of quality make, to which Katrina had given the simple name of "Red", after it's scarlet hilt, with which Katrina was entranced with when she first obtained the sword.

After the Mad Queen had taken control of the kingdom, Katrina was taught to worship the woman by her mother (who had done so mostly due to her fear of losing their family's status, rather then having any actual belief in the queen.), and so she did. After she had successfully joined the defenders of the queen, Katrina completed most tasks assigned to her quickly and effectively. Quite often though, she wonders if what she does is the right thing to do. Guilt quite often found it's way into her thoughts.

On one occasion, she was ordered to kill young conjuror, who was only twelve years of age. She refused, up until the point of being threatened with treason. The memory haunts her even now, and she loathes herself for what she has done. However, After the first atrocity, it became easier and easier to commit more. Katrina had slowly desensitized herself, in order to make it easier on her to follow orders. She now worships the queen wholeheartedly, trying to justify her actions to herself. If ever the guilt of her crimes where allowed to seep into her mind, Katrina might just break down entirely.

Strengths:
- At close combat, Katrina proficient in fighting with a bastard sword two handed. The sword is fine and well made. She can hold her own in hand to hand combat as well.
- Though not exceptionally fast, Katrina is good at parrying and countering attacks with her sword and is decently dextrous
- Can perform first aid, and has some knowledge of remedies.
Weaknesses:
- With no shield, Katrina is not the best at receiving blows. Her armor will take what it can, but she may be knocked back by particularly strong attacks.
- No form of range or magic.

Religion: Katrina primarily worships Vitama, as does the rest of her family.
Birth month: The month of Domito

Was asked about religion a couple of times.



This is the religion of The Mad Kingdom, and the brotherhood. They pray based on the segment, in which they are currently in. At the start of the story, they will be in segment 5.

1.) The god of terrain ( Solum ) is the creator of land and plants, at this time you pray and thank him for the planet.
2.) The god of beast ( Domito ) is the creator of all animals, at this time you pray for the providing of food.
3.) The goddess of being ( Vitama ) is the creator of consciousness and discernment, ask for guidance.
4.) The god of fortune ( Bene ) is a good luck god, ask for upcoming luck.
5.) The God of misfortune (Infelix), and twin to Bene, is a bad luck god, offer something of value to avoid upcoming bad luck.
6.) The Goddess of Love ( Lorem ) if you are going through hard times, this is the time to pray for compassion of others.
7.) The God of Destruction, pray for forgiveness of your sins throughout the rest of your year.

I also understand that every character is not religious, you may choose to believe in all of them, none of them or even some of them.

Question, are the defender of the queen universally evil?

Birth Name: Silas Brunirth

Name origin: Silas's first name came from his father and his last name came from the name of a green star on the night of his birth, Brunirth Vale

Alias: Nighthawk

Gender: Male



Skin tone: Slightly pale white

Hair Color: Brown

Eye Color: Blue

Height:5'6"

Body Build: Average

Faction:Conjurer

Affiliation: Evil

Backstory: Silas was born on a rather unfortunate night, the very same night that his family was running from a few conjurers who they had angered. The conjurers came to house looking for his family but they had left by the time they arrived. Silas was born three hours after said conjurers arrived at the house looking for his family. When the conjurers found his family it was at the very same moment in which Silas was in his mothers arms. They tore him from their arms his parents arms and slaughtered themas they tried to run.
It was six years later when the very same conjurers, whom he believed at the time to be his parents, tested him to see whether he could conjure something as simple as ball. Silas succed in doing that and more, he conjured a ball and a dog to play with said ball. Although this drained him rather physically and he was unable to do much more than lay in bed that day it also showed the great promise that he held. His 'parents' started his training at age seven with simple conjurings such as a ball to a broom and sometimes made him put them to the test. At first he was unable to keep them in a corpreal form for long periods of time. By age ten Silas had made a dog conjuration which he could keep corpreal for three hours. When Silas turned eleven he was sent to an academy for especially skilled conjurers.
Silas remained in the academy until he was twenty years old and studied all kinds of magic other than the conjuring magic he was taugh by his so called parents. During his tenure, Silas learned of elemental magics and mostly showed increasing intrested and ability in lightning magics. Although they also nurtured his natural ability to conjure creations, Silas always spent more time on his studies with elemental magics. When Silas graduated at the ripe young age of twenty one , five years ahead of the others of his class, he visited his parents for the summer. His parents threw a wild party in his honor and everybody they could. This was their first mistake, Silas heard of the talk at the party that he was not their true child because they had never had one until he appeared out of thin air. Silas confronted his parents about the truth and they gave him the truth, their second mistake, and told him about his parents and their slaughter. In a fit of rage, Silas conjured two hounds and had them rip his 'parents' throats out. The party erupted into chaos and Silas diappeared in haste. When the people came to, Silas was gone and a few guests were dead and Silas was named a renegade.
Silas ran deep into the forest and realized something, he could destroy many of his peers if he so very wished to. That was when Silas was corrupted by the idea that his power was beyond the reach of those who would call themselves his master. This was when he decided it was time for a change of government, one with him in power.

Strengths:Silas spent years training his magic skills and honing his endurance. He is moderately good with a sword and can wearr somewhat heavy armor.

Weaknesses:Silas is mentally unstable and corrupted by the belief of ultimate power making him over confident in his abilities. Silas likes to try and over exert himself so as to stretch his endurance beyond its previous point.

Every person is their own individual, the queen gives you task and how you fulfill is up to you. But the idea, is that anybody who serves the queen, worships the queen.

Is there a reason they believe she is a prophet? Like, has she done anything to make them believe so, or are they just sort of a cult.

The majority of the people in The Mad Kingdom, have entrusted their faith into Bellatrix. In one night, she swept the conjurers who she convinced were a threat to the people. By this, they think she is a protector of sorts. A woman born in the segment of Vitama, to protect Vahara and it's people. She has everyone in the mad kingdom convinced she is a savior, except for the brotherhood. It's unknown if the people are really naive, or if she is a witch.

so why is it called the Kingdom of the Night. Is that a recent thing where it's a negative connotation given to the place by others after the Mad Queen rose to power?

Alright, cool.
Sorry for pestering you with questions, I just want to know what I'm getting into.

The Mad Kingdom, is also known as the Kingdom of the Night, because this is when it is active. People sleep during the day, and then are active at night time. This will be further explained later on in the story. Some predators can't see as well in the dark!

I love your character Dawnstar, but we gotta fix a little bit up. This is pretty much my fault, with my broad descriptions.

• It's unrealistic for the Conjurer's to make an Academy, they make up only sixteenth of the population, out of one-hundred thousand. Only about a fifth being able to attend a school, of sorts. [ this doesn't mean you can't be taught, you can be an apprentice of someone.]

• Conjurers are generally, very peaceful people. This is not to say that they don't kill, but they would have a more obvious reason then angered. ( This is an easy fix, just add an intent to kill. )

• It's really nice to see an evil Conjurer, but I should explained that they only make objects. This means that, any created animals wouldn't have a free will of its own. It is entirely controlled by you. So while you're killing off our heros, you can only use objects! : ) [ no elemental magic either! ]

My character is up, though I will most likely expand on it a bit later.
EDIT: Fixed some of the grammar.
