Hello, I have a Forgotten Realms-ish fantasy epic in mind, set in an original world, with an original cast of characters (Any similarities to any person, real or ficticious, is sometimes intentional.) The details are being ironed out, but the Basics of the Plot include Immortal Armies Versus Mortal Heroes (and Antiheroes). I'll give a brief synopsis:
"Everybody knows who is who when it comes to royalty. Any child past his fourth year of schooling could tell you the names of every province of Niverin and the person in charge of each province. It's such an important part of life that everyone knows about it. Royalty's important.
But what of the opposite side of the coin? Humans and elves have the day. Sunlight is for the living after all. And the world isn't just inhabited by the living. The night belongs to the dead, and their not-as-dead counterparts. The Undead have royalty too. But no one knows about them. And those who do, are afraid to be found with that knowledge. For the true masters of the night, and inarguably the top of the food chain, are The Vampire Kings.
The Kings of the North, East, South, and West, ruled over by Vormatz Li'arme, The High King of Undeath, rule the night in relative peace, both between themselves and the world of the living. But Vormatz has never been popular, but for the last few decades he has been tightening his fist and the other kings did not like that. Now the world of the night has sprouted up and started encroaching on the light in bloody civil war.
Mortalkind is blissfully unaware, for now. But with the undertones of war altering the course of daily life, they will not be so for long. When death meets life, for the first time in centuries, it will meet in bloody battle. No one is going to come out of this nightmare unscathed or unscarred."
The OOC will be up tomorrow, but for now, here's a basic character template for you to get started with:
Name:
Race:
Age:
Height:
Weight:
Appearance:
Approach to life (who are you?):
Approach to war (how do you fight?):
Biography:
Skills (List five to ten good useful ones, Elder Scrolls style. These will dictate what the hell you’re good at. And no, I’m not using actual TES skills. This does not include any combat ability, that’s all in approach to combat. This is for outside of the arts of warfare. Also, the more you have, the more mediocre you are in each to keep a healthy balance. If you have five, you’re an expert four, and damn good at one. So on, so forth, up to reasonably decent at ten skills. These can be anything, from fletching to alchemy to diplomacy, anything that could be useful for this RP. Get it? Got it? Good.)
Weaponry:
Armor:
Gear:
Other (Anything else you want to write about, that I didn't have a proper category for. If unused, delete this section from your final character sheet):
