Rebellion is our calling!!

[OneStoryToMany]

@OneStoryToManyawesome, I may actually have two ideas if the first one doesn't work. Ill get started on a CS

@Aerandir

Cool cool!

I hope you guys end up enjoying this! Cause now I'm worried! LMAO

[OneStoryToMany]

So after creating the map, how would I post it on here? I tried a couple random map generators, but I wasn't entirely happy with them so I decided to make my own, but now I'm not sure how to put it on here?

Would I be able to possibly have a character that was a princess(or nobility if princess is too much) who doesn't agree with the way that kingdom is being run and runs away to get away from her corrupt family and join the rebellion

You could upload it to a site that lets you upload pictures then copy the url and such

Certainly. All character ideas are worth consideration. If you'd like to play a Princess character I would like to point out that your character would have been a pampered doll that was raised to be the purchase price in an alliance of some type though. While that won't prevent her from having some form of skill, she probably wouldn't be overly skilled in it until after she joins the rebellion. Technically speaking, the rebellion hasn't "started."

There are currently pockets of dissent throughout the Kingdom, and while The Ouroborus is ACTIVELY against the Kingdom, and has taken steps, there isn't a formal rebellion as of yet.

Also, people who play in the roles of Faction leaders, if you are approved I'll be sending a PM with "secret" information about your factions (or other factions depending on who you are.) Do what you will with the information, but recognize if some of it gets out, it'll put you guys in a tight situation :p

Thanks :D I'll do that :D

I hope I got everyone O_o

Just to let you guys know, I want this to be a story that has ideas from all of us, so if there's anything you would like to see in the story, if I can get it to fit into what I got planned, just let me know and I'll get it in there. Thankfully, I'm trying to keep several major plot points together, but the details and minutiae are definitely malleable, so just pass along any interesting ideas you got and we can see how they play out!

This post will also act as a periodic roll call just to make certain everyone who has shown interest is still interested, so if you are just give me a shout and we can go from there!

[Kitty]

@OneStoryToMany
Yeah, the idea I had was she would learn over time how to defend herself overtime.

That's just one of the ideas I had so when I start going more into detail with my characters I will see which one works out better

I am currently making an Ex General for the Kingdom, It's very possible he could have known this princess. He was a nobleman himself. We could possibly work out a back history for that.

[spencerishere]

I'm thinking of a brother/sister duo where the sister is a legitimate noble born and the brother is a bastard, therefore her half-brother, though he doesn't know of his lineage, and she knows he's out there but has no idea who/where he is

@Kitty

That should be fine. If you do decide to go with the Princess thing I already have a really good reason for why she would have run away. Beyond just poor leadership skills of her father. (She'd be unlikely to know how bad the situation was for the common folk. She probably would have been sheltered from most of the debate on the topic and wouldn't have seen the terrible conditions herself.) But it would add an interesting flavor to things. The King has several secrets, one of which would have had an EXTREMELY large effect on her. Plus interactions with another faction for that character might be interesting.

[OneStoryToMany]

I'm loving this enthusiasm guys :D

So, just finished most of the first draft of the map, just gotta add the city and desert. Then I need to make the map for the city!!!! Progress!

Here is my rough draft for now please feel free to ask me to add anything

Fenros Allaway

Theme Song

---

---

Name
Fenros Claude Allaway

Race/Faction
Human From The Kingdom originally but will lead the Rebellion against them.

Age
30

Description



Fenros is not a large man compared to some other knights, and while he does not look it he does have a body of a warrior. He is muscular, but not bulky like most brutes. He stands at a modest 5'7" with dirty blonde hair and light blue eyes. He bares scars all over his body from years of combat for the kingdom and pushing himself beyond his limit to ascend the ranks as fast as he could. He was never one to wear fancy robes of exquisite material, preferring to wear more practical clothing. When not in normal attire, his armor (below) is what he can be found in. He found not having a full suit of armor better suited his fighting style.



"Class" Knight/General

Motivation
Fenros was born into a noble class. However his father understood the kingdom was not for the Lords and Ladies, but for the People. This made him appreciate those who served in his castle, treating them like his own family. He knew the names of every servant, and a little about them. He also did not want his children to be raised like spoiled brats, and while at the same time training them to be knights, he also made them do some of work with the servants. Learning everything that needed to be done in the castle and doing it till they were proficient at it. This greatly influenced Fenros as he came to see the true meaning of hard work, and the hardships the peasants went through. Now he can't stand it anymore, being one of the only ones in the kingdom nobility that is disgusted with the other nobles and even king.

History
Like mentioned above, Fenros had a very different life growing up in the Allaway Castle. His father groomed him to take over the family estate, and values. Trained him to be one of the best swordsman/fighter in the kingdom, as his father was, in both sword and hand to hand. He pushed himself that he was already defeating other knights when he was still a squire. His reputation on the battlefield with both battle and tactics after becoming a knight help raise him to become one of the youngest generals in the kingdom. It helped that he won his men's hearts, and gained their absolute trust.

Despite that, he was also known for his bluntness for lazy spoiled nobles, quick to call them out for their faults and has been known to throw a few into the castle moats for different reasons.



Strengths
A prodigy with the sword.
A formidable tactician.
He is very charismatic.
Natural born leader, most of his men fight for him, rather the king.
Observant.

Weakness
Women, he can't help but flirt.
He has a temper at times mostly when it comes to dealing with fat nobles.
He can get lost in fighting, he enjoys the challenge and can at times fail to see the bigger more important picture. He tends to have too much fun while doing so.



What is the most important thing to know about your character?
Fenros is one to lay down his life to save a group a peasants he doesn't know. Even if he is the leader of the rebellion, he's the first on the battlefield and last to leave.

What is your character's greatest flaw?
His temper while dealing with imbeciles. Usually happens in the court, or will during negotiations with a group he clearly dislikes.

Why should your character be in a position to influence an entire country?
As a Noble he does have some weight in the court. Everyone knows him from his deeds as a knight, and his rather blunt and opposite view upon the world. Because of this, many would hear how kind of a man he is with the common folk, and could rally the people to his banner and with the numbers of the people overthrow the kingdom.

A heavy oak door slammed open, causing an unsuspecting Lord to jump in his chair as he woke from his mid afternoon nap in front of the fire. After heaving himself out of the chair on his third attempt, he looked around to the entrance of his his study to see a man with a look of disgust on his face. He looked to see his head servant with a look of Terror as he bowed to his lord. Forgive m-m-m-e my Lord. I tried to stop him, but he would not listen to reason...

The lord knew this man, everyone in the Court knew him for his queer behaviors. It was Lord Fenros Allaway,
one of the youngest Lords in the court, and General to the king. However he was still a lower lord compared to himself.HOW DARE YOU... He started to say, but the younger Lord cut him off.

NO, How dare you! Here you sit comfortably in your castle, growing fat off the surplus of food you keep here and waste with every meal, while the king's soldiers at your borders have to ration their food to survive. Here you sit lazily instead of coming to the front like I requested with supplies and men. I am tempted to pull my men away and allow you to clean your own mess you made with our neighbours Fenros walked foward to the Lord, who took offense at him cutting him off and calling him fat, and lazy.

The Lord reached for his sword and drew it with his right hand, not having the decency to call for a duel, but slashed wildly at the younger Lord. At which Fenros dodged to the right, easily reading his movements and caught his swordhand, Twisting the right hand counterclockwise and throwing his elbow over that same hand to apply more pressure. The sword clattered to the ground as the fat lord screamed in pain as the pressure felt like his wrist was about to break.

Lord Biron... Fenros said flatly, As General to the King, I consider your lack of effort to defend your fiefdom, your brazen attempt to kill me, as an attack to the king himself. I hereby remove you from you from your seat and brand you a Traitor to the throne." With that he quickly grabbed the Lord by the collar while still holding his arm in the awkward position and rushed towards the window, throwing him out of the tower of his study...into the moat below.

@Aerandir

WOOT WOOT. Well, it's a bit of a middle zone of accepted. Just need the two paragraphs at min. One of interaction, one of combat or other specialization. But definitely has my thumbs up for now! Reads like the kind of guy who COULD lead a rebellion. However, I need to point out that he WILL NOT like a good portion of his rebellion people. The Ouroboros for instance are not so....nice. And he probably won't last long without their support. SO is he capable of sucking it up for that?

[spencerishere]

@OneStoryToMany uh have you come up with a name for the kingdom yet

Yeah I realized I forgot those paragraphs and am currently working on it.

Hmmm, he could to a point. He would probably try to negotiate terms for his personal reasons as well. Maybe call them out. I'm sure it's going to be a VERY rocky relationship. Also I forgot to ask about Magic, is it only specialized to one class, or can a Knight have some Basic magic as well? Like some fire magic. if not that's cool,just wondering

I just had an Idea for Kitty with her potential character and The Vanguard. Fenros would most likely try to gain their support as well later on.

[OneStoryToMany]

@spencerishere

It's sad isn't it? I'm hung up on this, but have already decided on certain facts in the ancient past of this Kingdom, and have no idea what to call them?

@Aerandir

First, awesome thank you for working on that! And "technically" all people are capable of some level of magic in this world. Now, Mages are people who just got a little extra oomph and dedicated themselves to learning magic. So a knight WOULD be capable of learning some basic magic, and or magic theory. Uh, since swordsmanship is such a time suck for learning things, I don't think any swordsman who extremely skilled would get very far in learning about magic or its theory, but there's nothing stopping him from learning some bits and bobbles.However, that WOULD have caused issue within parts of the Military and various fighting guilds. Kind of just a prejudice there about magic and it's use. SO it'd be a personal choice if one learned or not.

I'm going to go ahead and try to type up a short bit about how magic works, just to try and explain the nature it takes IC.

[spencerishere]

@OneStoryToMany Lol I just wanna know because it feels repetitive to type "the kingdom" over and over and over again

[Aerandir]

@spencerishere Same with saying like 'Durloscus' Over and over again. XD

[Dusty]

I was thinking of creating a more repugnant character, perhaps a young prince whose heir to the throne, and desperately wants to prove himself fit for the mantle of kingship. Seeking to be the one to crush the rebellion so that he will have a throne to sit on once the king dies.

[spencerishere]

Welp, I started on a cs but it probably won't be finished until tomorrow or maybe until the day after. I have school in the morning & then work right after, but I'll work on it as much as I can. Night guys :)
