Sit down, sigh and relax in the beanbag chair. It's got a hole in the side so don't shift too much. Need a light? Take a long drag from that cigarra and listen close, boy. It's the year 2175, and god has forsaken us. You've missed a lot in your cryosleep, but don't worry, the brain fog will wear off eventually. Probably. Let me catch you up while you rest. Strange how tired sleeping for a hundred'n'fifty years will make you feel.

Remember that president you hated? Nothing he did really mattered. But the one after him? Mind mannered and a real smooth talker, talked us right into world war three he did. The Elves stood on the sidelines and watched the Orcs 'n us humans get into a big fight with the Orcs 'n humans on the other side of the globe. Ten years and about a billion people dead, shook the earth man. No one wanted war anymore, so when the elves stepped in and brought about peace in 2038, people were relieved. A few dudes say they saw what was coming next happen, but no one believed them, and eventually they stopped speaking up after a few self inflicted gunshot wounds to the back of the head. Suicide, they always get ruled suicide.

Elves took over everything. Course it wasn't obvious, most companies looked like they were run by humans, maybe a lucky orc or two, but mostly humans. However, every company always linked back to a parent or an owner company, something small in an island nation, always run by elves. Elves make up the majority of council members on corporate boards, Elves make up the majority of world leaders, Elves make up the majority of everything important, and the rest of us fill their ranks as workers.

You'd probably label me a conspiracy theorist back in your day, but today that shit's just history. Elves don't even care anymore if you talk about it, cause they knew you couldn't do anything about it. Show's how much they know. War's coming again man. We ain't had a war since the great world war three, but there's a new one on the horizon. Rumor has it there's an Orc Magi on the rise. Unbelievable, right? That's what I thought too! Ain't been an Orc Magi in hundreds of years. The statistics are like one in a billion for Orcs, one in a million for humans, and one in a thousand for elves.

Now this new Orc Magi, he ain't joining the academy for elves oh no sir. He's fixing to become the new Dark Lord. He's apparently gathering an army of Orcs and Humans, plans on leading a race war against Elves. Elves be having none of it, of course, but there are too many Orcs and humans now getting in on this for them to publicly start moving against them without risking triggering the conflict. Even small arrests of cells is starting riots. Shit be crazy man.

Now, you should rest, I'm headed to the Dark Lord rally in the speaker's square this afternoon. Hells yeah I'll be supporting the Dark Lord, it's about time someone put the elves back in their place, in the ground.

--------------------------------

Premise-
It's the year 2175, and the race war is about to start. It's been nearly a 150 years since the world had a world war, and even the elves have begun to forget the horrors of the original war. The Dark Lord leads an army from the underground to eradicate the High Elves ruling the world. Magic exists, but is mysterious, powerful, and rare. Elves rule the world as they possess the majority of magic users, 'Magi' as they're called, but their Magi are not nearly as powerful as Human and Orc Magi. Human Magi are assassinated wherever they are found by the Elves, and no one's ever seen an Orc Magi.

But now, as technology reaches a peak with sentient machines, flying cars, and terraforming worlds in our solar system, magic appears to finally be taking a backseat as humans have a chance to rise against the Elves with their intelligence. Orcs, having been suppressed for centuries, have finally had enough, and are eager to rise against the Elves with their strength and new leader. Minorities such as Centuars, Trolls, Dark Elves, and Dwarves take a backseat to the big three and will doubltessly be caught up in the storm of destruction. In these troubling times, what side of the conflict will you find yourself on?

Roles-
Feasibly? Anything you can think of. You could be an Orc rallying in the streets under the banner of the Dark Lord, or a human trying to hide their insanely rare magic from the elves, or a disenfranchised elf who's not really sure of himself but has no choice but to fight for survival in a hostile world, or even a machine given sentience whose deceased masters leave him wandering and looking for purpose. The choices are endless, get creative!

CS-
Basic description-
Personality-
Biography-
Gear-
Skills-
Magically inclined?- Y/N(Magic is EXTREMELY mysterious and vague, most Magi cannot use it without a catalyst of some sort and, even then, require intense knowledge of words of power to focus their abilities. But learning these things through RP can gift amazing rewards)
Relationships-(Connections, friends, etc.)

Rules-
Fuck you I make the rules on the spot whenever i feel like it. I am GM, my word is law, my judgement is final. If you join here you are signing your name on this contract that if I say jump, you say how high. I am a benevolent god king, but do not test me.

I'm usually not one for massive genre crossovers, but you've managed to convince me to not dismiss it. Still a little bit weary for other reasons so I'm gonna file this firmly in the "maybe" category and keep an eye on it for a week or so.
