[OOC] Off We Go [Buzzingbee & EldarionI]

[BuzzingBee]

Hello! Sorry I didn't make it anything fancy xD

So, any ideas plot wise? I'm kind of thinking of making either a human and mage or a half-elf and mage for my characters. But I want to kinda try and figure out the world first before I make any decisions lol I also might just say screw it and add more characters for side characters xD

Should it be a random team up of sorts? Like they all happen to be in the same area when a village is attacked (whether they live there or are just passing through) and perhaps they're the only ones that survive it?
Or it could be something more organized. Perhaps an alliance forming between kingdoms brings them together if they're all of high rank and there's something they have to go take care of? An evil force or threat of some kind.

Just throwing out a few ideas :D I'm pretty open to anything

[EldarionI]

Mind if I post my characters first, see if that gives us any more ideas? :)

[BuzzingBee]

Not at all :) Go ahead! I'll probably start working on a rough outline of mine

[EldarionI]

I can send you a blank version of the one I'm using if you'd like :)

[BuzzingBee]

Sure!

[EldarionI]

There you go! :)

[BuzzingBee]

Thanks! I'll start throwing my characters together then

[EldarionI]

So my two main characters are done! :D

[BuzzingBee]

Cool! So are mine :D I might add a human but if I do, I'll add him later haha
So what are you thinking for the plot?

[EldarionI]

Well let's see what we have... an elven scout, a half-elven mage, a half-elven bounty hunter and a dwarven warrior

Maybe they could be selected to find something powerful and dangerous that has falling into the 'enemies' hands?

[BuzzingBee]

I like it! How should they be selected?? Through a kingdom/higher power or maybe a person that kinda knows all of them?
This is just a thought but maybe the powerful/dangerous thing was something that was protected by either the wood elves, dwarfs or mages for like centuries until it was stolen. Knowing the destruction it's loss could bring, the village/society could choose to send out search parties for it as well as someone (one of our characters) to get help from the other villages/societies since it's a threat to them all.

And I could tie Clarcia in by over hearing the word about the danger. I imagine she'd want to track them down (possibly looking for a reward for herself as much as wanting to stop the bad stuff xD) so she'd end up helping the group as well since she's good at tracking down people.

[EldarionI]

What about if it was protected by Men but they were overwhelmed and ambushed and lost it and many soldiers. Maybe a spirit or higher power leads all four them to a certain location through a dream or premonition. When none of them go and learn that this powerful item has been taken and then received another message, they all listen the second time and meet somewhere...

[BuzzingBee]

I like it! Maybe the meeting place could be where the attack took place so they all see the destruction that this unknown enemy caused?

[EldarionI]

Sounds like a great idea 😎

[BuzzingBee]

Great :D So should the thing that sending out the dreams be like the sorta guardian of the object? Also any ideas as to what the object is and what it can do??

[EldarionI]

That makes sense, a spirit guardian...

Guardian

What if it could imbue the user with unlimited magical energy?

[BuzzingBee]

Sounds good! I like that. Maybe there's even legends saying it was used by whatever gods the people protecting it believe to create the land but it got into the hands of evil before and nearly destroyed the world so they hid it away for many centuries, until now of course ;)

[EldarionI]

I definitely think it should be protected by the mages then, they should be the physical guardians of the magical thing. Maybe because they are close to it is what gives them their powers. The spirit guardian could be the creator of the object.

[BuzzingBee]

Ok that sounds good to me. If it's at Akiva's village maybe that's why they're shapeshifters too. The object gives them quite a bit of power (I imagine shapeshifting to be a rather advanced move) so when it gets taken away her powers weaken so much that she can barely perform basic spells since she's not used to not having the added boost of the object.

I'm excited haha

[EldarionI]

Great idea, can't wait to get started!
