[OOC] Low Fantasy RP - Payle

[Mataus]

P A Y L E

Hello! Welcome to the world of Payle!
This is a low Fantasy roleplay in which magic is used very rarely. It is usually only used in artifact enchanting and occasionally in rituals.

Payle is the name of the world this is set in, but the continent that the RP starts on is Etheria. There are other continents such as Assail, but the RP won't focus on them. Feel free to make up your own continent if you want. My character will be Cowl, a prince who is looking for an artifact. I have a few ideas on what the artifact may do. There will be some Gods influencing events in the RP, but overall this will be an adventure with fighting and slice of life narratives. The RP setting is very open. I don't mind races such as elves (or other types of elves like dark elves etc), orcs, dwarves and more.

I ask anyone who joins to write a paragraph. I don't expect more and I don't want less. Also, please do not write 7 paragraphs of fluff. There will be fighting in this RP, but that isn't the point of it. If that's what you're here for then you will get bored.

Feel free to bring in a character at any time. You can even bring in a character and some NPCs. I don't mind. Just don't break anything okay!

No need for a CS, although having one will be helpful for people who want to know more about your character.

Here's a link to the discord server for the RP.

Hey I’m interested in this RP here is my character sheet you can tell what ya think.

Hark

Name: Hark Laurie

Appearance: Hark has a muscular lean figure and stands at 5’ 11”. He has long brown messy hair that he rarely puts any effort into. Hark has a relatively handsome face and deep hazel eyes. He wears a lightweight leather vest underneath his usual lightweight fitting clothes so his movement and agility isn’t affected much. While Hark is on an assignment he wears a bandolier of throwing knives and has a short sword.

Bio: Born and raised in Anvil Hark lived a relatively normal life until he was 20 and got involved in his fathers trade of hunting for relics and artifacts for mages who were too lazy to do the dirty work themselves. He usually tries to avoid jobs that requisite him to steal from others but sometimes the price is just too good to refuse. While Hark is is capable of finishing a scrap he’s no knight and prefers ranged weapons such as throwing knives. Hark much prefers stealth over fighting through to finish the job.

[JELDare]

Hey there I'm interested in joining if this is still open.

[Mataus]

Yep it's open! @JELDare

Not sure if this conflicts with the lore you have in mind. I´ll happily make changes if so.

Name: Norton Stahlder

Appearance: A fairly short man with sharp features, Norton´s appearance is clean and blunt in accordance with his title of squire. His expressive amber eyes betray his intentions during conversations, and are framed by pinewood colored hair and light scarring. His general appearance is youthful yet reveals a man with experience and a strong fighting spirit. He is in his early twenties and has an athletic, lean body.

Personality: Norton is fiercely devoted the goddess of order Lumen, and fights for her honor under the command of veteran knights. Satisfied with his initial victories in battle under their guidance, they have now cast him out into the world in the hopes of further molding him into the ideal warrior. Because of the heavy amount of pressure on him he possesses an insecurity of his combat skills and an eagerness to prove himself. Norton believes that Lumen is always watching, so he attempts to always take the high road. He gets angered very easily though, and is quite the worrywart. The results are... interesting.

[Mataus]

Works for me 👍

Could I make a half dragon nomad?

Could I make a half dragon nomad?

@Shadow Dragon

@Mataus said he'd prefer people not to go for dragon characters.

[Shadow Dragon]

Where'd he say that?

[Carlyle]

In the discord.

[Shadow Dragon]

But it's not a dragon. It's a half dragon.

Name: Tristan Compton

Appearance: Tristan stands a head above most and has a lean body built up from years of fieldwork. His has a square jaw and handsome features marred by a crooked nose. His unique grey eyes glint when he gets excited, showing his true feelings on a subject. His chestnut hair is almost always tousled, staying in a constant state of disorganisation. Due to his towering stature, he always seems to have a presence even when in a room full of people. He wears a suit of armor in battle. It was stolen from a corrupt knight, embellished with paint that was once bright and vibrant, but is now faded. It is scuffed and dented after a prolonged period without repair. Normally, he wears a plain tunic with some light leathers above, as well as some light brown trousers.

Personality: Tristan is not a traditional knight, and not just because he had no training. When in a dangerous or tense situation in which he feels as if he cannot triumph, he often chooses to save himself. However, most of the time Tristan has good intentions. He won't go out of his way to save the damsel in distress, but he'll certainly think about it! Despite his lack of heroism, Tristan tends to be very friendly. He also goes out of his way to bring people together as opposed to separating them. He tries not to get involved in arguments, but if he feels for certain one group is in the wrong he may have to chip in.

Bio: Before recent events, Tristan had been a mere farmer, working with his parents to put food on the table. However, one day a certain knight came to town. At night, drunk as a skunk, he knocked on their door, demanding they offer such an honorable man a bed. Unfortunately this meant Tristan was kicked out of his room. The knight turned out to be so drunk, he fell into a deep sleep upon making contact with the bed. Tristan only thought it was fair that he took the knight's horse and equipment. It was his own fault, really. Tristan quickly gathered his newfound belongings and rode off into the night.

Looks good!

[Shadow Dragon]

Is this a free RP? It seems to be Advanced.

[YeetMeister]

@Shadow Dragon

He says in the first post he expects a paragraph.

[Carlyle]

Is this a free RP? It seems to be Advanced.

@Shadow Dragon

It's hardly Advanced. It's a Free RP; at most Low Casual if you want to stretch it.
