Death was not what you expected. It was neither the heaven you were promised nor was it the black void that you were convinced it was. Instead it was an infinite tunnel of memories, sharpened to perfect recall, as if reliving your entire life for eternity. All the joys, despairs, heroic feats, defeats, and even the very moment that you past away, as if the universe was keeping your existence bottled for safe keeping.

Strangely, you cannot seem to remember how long this eternity lasted or how many times you relived your life - was it only a hundred times or hundreds of thousands? Finally, however, you reached the end of the road. All your memories suddenly go blank only to be replaced by the image of a woman, robed in the purest of white and skin nearly as pale as snow. She looks down, a cowl permanently covering her eyes as she points down. You follow her direction and your gaze is met by a strange sight indeed - a familiar land, where you once lived, however it is covered by a permafrost and darkness. Before you can even attempt to protest this scene, her otherworldy voice echos against the void, "I have kept you for this very reason, my precious soul. She is dark and cold and dying - you and your brethren shall breath life into her once more. You must find the source of this death. The World is calling you..."

I think I'll hold off on a sheet for now to see how many signups you get. If the group gets a little too big, I'm going to have to pass.

So I know the concept is generally aiming for dead old legends but I was thinking, would it be possible to play someone who's literally only just died or even someone who didn't die but was still summoned from a near death experience? Someone who's building his legend in the present and will be damned if he's gonna rely on dead people to do this for him.

Ok, so two questions before I start writing the character sheet. First off, would I be able to make music all one skill, or would I have to make separate skills for singing and percussion and all that?
And second, have you decided if it's ok for me to have my character live in the same time as, and possibly even be killed by Ravness?

@Rabidporcupine - Depends on how specific and detailed the music and other skills will be. You can look at my sheet for an example. Just use your best judgement. As for being killed by Ravness? You're going for dark here, haha. I suppose it's technically okay, but just take Ravness' character into account... she is not evil in the least and wouldn't have done something like that unless she felt she was forced into it for some reason.

@Lyla

Actually, after rereading some more of the lore and Ravness's bio, I also want to ask if there are spirits that aren't really related to the dark or the light in this? Like neutral nature spirits and stuff? Because what I'm thinking of for my magic is that when he sings or makes music, he's actually singing to the spirits, and then they go on to alter the world based on his songs. There's also a series of 'black songs', which at first were simply going to bypass the spirits and affect the world straight up, but now I'm thinking it calls directly on the Dark. Either way, these ones can basically lead to possession/death.

Also, now I'm thinking the kingdom he was prince of was being manipulated by the lich Ravness was fighting, so my character was kind of like its not-actually-evil-but-seemed-evil second in command, fighting because he was convinced Igros would destroy his kingdom if he didn't stop her.

@Rabidporcupine - That's not a bad way of doing it! And yes, other spirits can exist, especially nature ones such as the druids might contract with. A lot of this is kind of unofficially official. =P

The forest knight became more of a classic shapeshifting druid, but I think it will work out in the end. :3
