Hello all! As part of my effort to get back into the wonderful world of role-playing, from which I'd taken an extended leave of absence, I'm interested in starting a new character RP. As the title might suggest, the setting is medieval fantasy. I say "low" fantasy, because while magic and fantastical races certainly do exist, in these particular lands they are rare, and generally not something that grown folks believe in. The aforementioned land is Provinka, a sub-continent similar to India in that it is surrounded by the ocean and generally kept isolated from other lands by extensive mountain ranges to the West.



After a long period of calm and peace in Provinka, things are beginning to become rather more interesting. A savage, unknown people in dragon ships are appearing off the Northern coastlines, raiding and pillaging coastal communities. Noone knows the origins of these raiders, noone knows the style of their uniforms or their language. They are a thoroughly alien people come to terrorize Provinka. They have thus far been seen only a handful of times, but each time they come they come with steel and flames. They have a couple times been fought off, but they strike without warning and with a surprising ferocity, so it is difficult to mount an effective defense.

In response to the recent raids, King Geralt of Dalria has ordered the fortification of the Dalrian coastline. He has ordered the local lords to garrison coastal communities, and has sent a troop of his own men to assist with the defenses. As a result, however, the Dalrians have made a very interesting discovery. Just on the fringes of the western mountains, close to the northern coastline, lies a vast, tangled forest. While sometimes used for hunting and gathering by the locals, the forest has been left undisturbed in the sparsely populated area. However, while on their way to reinforce the coast, a force of Dalrian soldiers stumbled upon a surprise. Nestled deep within the woods lies a massive city, noticeably ancient and unlike any other in all of Provinka. Composed of once graceful towers and crumbling structures of unknown architecture, the city is a tantalizing hint of once grand, now forgotten past for the people of Provinka.

While generally ignored by the Dalrians themselves, the discovery of the city made quite a buzz throughout the rest of Provinka. The Turizi Dalrians, weary of their foreign overlords, have claimed it as proof of their inherent superiority over the Western Barbarians who dwell in ugly stone castles. The Viorla think it the site of a once grand Temple to the Sky, and the scholars of the Eastern cities believe it to be the remnants of a previously unknown civilization. An obscure cult amongst the strange Lorelae people, a minority population in some Turizi cities, have proclaimed it to be the city of the Gods before they abandoned the world to humanity. Regardless of the cities true origins, it has already begun to attract a variety of adventurers. From explorers and treasure hunters to scholars, the city is soon to have it's depths plumbed and it's secrets exposed.

Which, naturally, is where you folks and your characters would come in. Anyone interested? :)
