New Idea: Ancient-Future

[Balthazar007]

Well would you look at that, the image you used for Tekhnologia is the same one I was going to use for my description of Sentia. We have superb taste.

@Leslie Hall

Haha! Nice! I beat you to it though I suppose. :)

[Balthazar007]

@Leslie Hall

And while we are on the subject of images. Can you please crop your image to 5:3 dimensions and size it at 500 x 300 px. I can do it if you want me to though.

This is an important announcement:

This RP will officially kick off next month on the first, July the 1st. I'm aware that many people that live in the USA, like myself, may not be able to start a story immediately after launch that weekend because of 4th of July. That's fine, just no stories before then, that's all.

This does not mean that you should push this aside for a whole month and try to remember to check back in July. Instead, you can help prepare this RP for launch. As I discussed in an earlier post, I am looking to let you all write the descriptions on each of the regions within the continents, thus allowing you to directly affect the lore of this RP. Call dibs on your region of choice ASAP and then take your time writing a 4 to 6 paragraph description of the region. I previously said that you could post that here. You still can, or you can just post it directly into the respective region's board and edit it from there.

I've been tossing around the idea, and I have decided to offer moderator status to anyone that helps during this time of build up. Furthermore, if you write a region's description, you also get first dibs on being the person that reads through stories created in that region to shortly summarize them into one plot every month. You may also be offered moderator status for getting a large number of people to join and say that they were referred by you. If you think of any other way to help, I might offer moderator status for that as well. Now, just because I make you a moderator offer, does not mean you have to accept if you don't want the responsibility. I'm fine with help just for the sake of helping.

Once again, here's a link to the site for the RP: http://fifth-earth.freeforums.net

Thanks Everyone!!

I'm looking to take the Eastern Villages of Crystallus. I have an idea for the particular indigenous peoples of such a flatlands region and am also looking to play one myself.

(If there's any more of Crystallus that I can take, let me know! I'm not sure how much we can claim.)

[rechonq]

Hey, so since the new RP won't be starting for another month, that would be plenty of time for me to take my time and get into it. I think I'd like to take the Northern Caves of Crystallus. I've got an idea for a character I want to use in there, and this looks really fun.

@LazyTitan1565

Alright! You got it! The lore of Eastern Villages lies in your hands. I would like you to pretty much be finished with Eastern Village first. That way others have time to lay steaks to a piece of Crystallus if they so choose. But you can do another place after you finish this one. Just one at a time is the rule of thumb at the moment.

@rechonq

Ah, nice! Northern Caves are yours to meld good sir!

[Cello]

I'm currently working on my first draft and I have to ask a question; how detailed do you want these to be?

So far my idea was to write about the regions politics, economics, culture, population and a little bit about the history (Though not too much because this can always be expanded upon in our stories). I'm also going to write about a handful of major cities in the Region.

I'd also like to write about the regions relationship with others, but that will have to wait until everything is done.

Once I write up my draft and give it a quick edit for spelling/grammar errors I'll post it so I can get everyone's opinion on it.

[Balthazar007]

@Leslie Hall

Hey, that's all good if you can fit it into 4 to 6 paragraphs. That's my only requirement.

And every region is different y'all. If you don't think that it is as important to your region to include as much information as Leslie, then don't worry about it. 4 to 6 paragraphs, that's all I ask.

[LazyTitan1565]

I might have the Eastern Villages completed tonight or tomorrow. Lots of fun typing all of this! I've covered the region's religion, economy, culture (or lack thereof) and why it looks the way it does so far. Should I post it here first before I create the thread on Fifth Earth, or not?

@LazyTitan1565

Meh, go ahead and post directly to the site. Just put "work in progress" above the title of your thread until we are happy with an end result.

I'm curious to see what you did for their religion, considering that the rest of the world sees (or used to see) them as gods.

I love letting others help with the creative process. This is fun. :)

[LazyTitan1565]

Done! The reclusive and mysterious Eastern Villages are yours to explore, friends.

[Balthazar007]

@LazyTitan1565

I sent you a PM via Fifth-Earths messaging system.

Thanks for all your creative work!

[LazyTitan1565]

Be sure to invite your friends, everyone! We've got such a huge forum to attempt to fill over on Fifth-Earth! It's lonely over there making content without y'all other players. ;-;

[KRIEEEG]

I'm almost done with Passitare! Just need to get back into my computer with the original doc and will update it in about half an hour!

[Cello]

I've been quite busy with other roleplays among other things so my post for Sentria is going quite slow. Thankfully we do have some time, but I'll try and get it done by the end of the weekend.

[Balthazar007]

Looking good everyone! I too am a busy bee. I'm trying my best to throw up at least one piece of content a day. Slow and steady wins the race!

[KRIEEEG]

Just got my computer back, expect a Passitare draft to come up in the next hour or two.

[KRIEEEG]

I'm extremely sorry to say that, but Passitare will have to wait, in the best case scenario, until tomorrow. In the worst case, Monday.

Saying that my day was extremely chaotic doesn't even comes close of describing the shit that came up today.

Once again, sorry for the delay.

[Balthazar007]

@KRIEEEG

It's no problem. A couple days is nothing in the grand scheme of a month.

[KRIEEEG]

@Balthazar007

Just posted the draft for Passitare's setting in the FE forum. Please let me know through PM if there is anything to change or edit.

I also have a small idea for the "religion" of the land. Not actually a religion, but whatever. I didn't even mentioned, as I got stuck to move the concept foward in any way.
