Land of The Yellow Sky

Once, there was an Blue Sky, ruled by beasts, peaceful and harmonious. Then came an Red Sky, dominated by chaos and strife, heralded by monsters and demons, and this too would eventually end. At last came an Yellow Sky, beaing hope and possibility, where by decree of the Golden Sky, declared the Yellow Sky to be an age in which its people would decide its meaning. Allowing Humans, Monsters, and Beasts to make of this world what they will. Whether this age of gold will be shimmering and bright, or fool's gold in disguise, none can tell save those who discover their truth of the world.

The Zhong dynasty withers on the vine, their Silver Emperor the latest in a recent string of sickly, incompetent, and decadent emperors of the failing Empire. Not helping this matter is the threat of barbarians from the northern frontier, outlanders from realms beneath skies of foreign hues, and even from within as the court rots and once faithful generals and nobles smell opportunity. Soon, things will reach their boiling point and the ill maintained prosperity and peace will turn to war and struggle. Adventurers and common folk, heroes and generals, all must decide for themselves what path they must follow, to prop up the current regime in hopes of an miraculous recovery, or to destroy the system of governance and create something new in its place?

Howdy everyone, I hope this ad finds you well, this story/setting is an original setting I am working on that's an fantasy world with far eastern aesthetics and influences, such as that of ancient China and Japan. With a setting that has a possibility to do whatever our characters desire, from being mere adventurers to something more ambitious as being an warlord and building up ones territory or settlement.

Hoping to find someone to give this setting/premise a chance to have a fun time and help flesh this world out more by exploring further inside of the rp world. If this is of interest or curiosity, please feel free to dm me and learn more. Please be 18+ as I do peddle in mature themes and situations such as conflict, death, and romance.

Potentially interested, but I have some questions. Would this story include any specific focus on things like Cultivation, Chi/Qi manipulation, or supernatural martial arts? Or is it meant to lean more towards something grounded and less over-the-top in its magical elements?

Interested! Happy to see a story I can relate to and would love to be a part of (thanks to watching a lot of romance C-dramas, especially xianxia) :3

@Zeroth
It'll have some elements of that. But the power ceiling is pretty low. Like having an expanded skill/ability repertoire is more likely. Grounded, but able to become strong, just not invincible.

@Coltshan Do you have any examples of the power ceiling in mind? Like, what would top-tier human beings in the setting be able to accomplish? Would they be able to use Qi/magic for things like elemental manipulation and such? And since Monsters and Beasts are mentioned, does this refer to supernatural/demonic/etc creatures?

Something like dynasty warriors mixed with DragonBall. You can fight waves of regular troops but powerful martial artists and sages exist.
