Story:
The world consists of four nations: water, earth, fire and air. The species living in those nations are able to create (to an extent, limited to their physical bodies) and manipulate their respective element. The water nation consists of mermaids and mermen who are known for being very adaptive and physically fit. They have webbed hands and feet with gills, which means that they have legs to walk on. However, they mostly use those legs to swim really fast and swiftly. Since they do not really care about the other nations, they only leave the waters to get different resources than the ones in the water. Merfolk who are part of the team that looks for resources might easily adapt to life on land, while the others might have some difficulty walking at the very beginning. Merfolk tend to stay away from other nations. Not out of fear or anger, they simply do not care about the others.
The earth nation has werewolves, known for being very strong and aggressive. The werewolves themselves are sad that they scare the other nations this much as they would prefer to connect with them. However, they have never before tried to convince the others of their good hearted nature, since the other nations fearing them makes it easy for them to always get their way.
The fire nation consists of people characterized by the term 'demons'. They are not able to transform, but they have physical aspects such as horns or a tail. The extent to which they look like a demon is different for each individual. They all have something that makes them appear as a demon, but some might only have horns while others look like textbook demons. These physical aspects and their ability to control fire makes the others think that these people are demons and not to trust. No one fears them, but no one dares to connect with them either as they are supposed to be criminals. The people themselves don't like the assumptions others make about them, but they are not going to deny them either. They want people to find out themselves how wrong they are about these people.
The air nation consists out of fairies and angels. Fairies are only able to control wind, whereas angels can also change the temperature of the air and the elements it exists out of (such as taking away oxygen). These people are known to be very weak and naive. People don't care about them and mostly laugh at them. No one is aware of the angels' ability to take away oxygen.
The last couple of centuries, a lot of wars were going on between the earth and fire nation. The air nation got tired of being locked away in the sky, not being able to land on earth due to all of the violence. That's why the air nation tried to convince the others to come together and try to work things out. For some weird reason, all four nations agreed. However, their meetings did not go as planned. A war started between all four nations.
Years went by. The war has ended, but the four nations are still not connected with each other. However, a new species has been created who might finally get the four nations to come together in peace: demigods. Demigods are born of more than one nation (either born from two pure blooded from different nations or born from parents who already were a mix of different nations). They are capable of learning to manipulate different elements.
Plan:
During this roleplay, different character will come together and form some kind of 'Team Avatar' trying to create peace between the different nations. You can choose if you want to be a pure blooded from one specific nation or a mix of different nations (which means that your parents did believe in peace between the nations). In theory, this storyline would allow several 'Avatars' at once, but everyone being able to control the four elements would get boring. That's why the 'Avatar' role will be limited to maximum two people. Also, no one HAS to be the 'Avatar'. This story can also be played with no one being able to control all four elements.
Remember:
- Characters still have physical limitations.
- Post your character in OOC for approval before posting in the characters tab.
- If you have any delays due to real life issues and your character is currently interacting with others, let them know. Communicate.
- You can have several characters at once, if you are certain that you can keep them up.
- Your character can have a pet if you wish. You can use your imagination freely, just have it make sense. The fire nation won't have penguins who need cold temperatures. Merfolk won't have owls or other birds who live in the sky. The air nation won't have fish. The earth nation won't have dragons.
- The towns on the map display the places where the majority lives. It's still possible for individuals, families, groups or gangs to live in other places on the map.
- If your post and your character is interacting with someone else's character, please tag them in your post.
- Have fun!
