In the beginning there were Titans. Some would say they are gods but no such human concept could describe these entities. They are simply immortal creatures who did as their whims dictated. Eventually they grew bored with emptiness that was their universe. They decided it was time for something more. They crafted a device of unimaginable power from the either. This device is called The Engine of Creation.
Once they had The Engine they used it to create the Mortal Realm. In the center of this realm was a world called Menargul. This world bred life. All throughout it life as we know it formed. Still it was unorganized and chaotic. This displeased the Titans.
The Titans once again used the engine to breath life into Heavenly Realm. This realm was populated with Angels. Beings of pure order. The Angels were given the task of bringing order to Menargul and life that existed on it. The Angels guided life and kept order for thousands of years. Eventually though the angels questioned the authority of the Titans. They thought they were not worthy of governance over creation. After all the Mortal Realm was a mess of disorder and unpredictable phenomena. They sought to take The Engine of Creation for themselves. With that goal they rebelled and attempted to fight the titans and left Menargul unattended.
The Titans having never had to fight before didn't know how to defend themselves against the Angels. So they once again used The Engine of Creation to create the Demon Realm. The demon realm was populated with beings pure choas. They were natural enemies of the angels. So a great war began among the immortals. A war that lasted an inconceivable amount of time. The Titans hid themselves away becoming myth as they were forgotten by their creations.
However neither the Mortal Realm continued on without interference. Menargul and the life that existed on it progressed and changed. Eventually Humanity formed. They created great kingdoms and empires that spanned the world. They harnessed the natural elements of the planet and created weapons, castles, homes and more. After many many millennia a species formed that could affect the balance of power between the immortal races.
That brings us to now. This story begins in the human city of Alku. Alku is the worlds largest city and capital of the Kingdom of Erenos. Recently the Alku has been victim to a horrible plague throwing the city into chaos. You look into the sky and see a ball of fire fall into the woods near the city. It disappears into the distance and blinding light comes from the direction you saw it in. For whatever reason you find yourself drawn to it. You feel the need to go and find where it landed.
This will be a mid casual rp. Please be patient with me as Ive never run an rp before. Feel free to add details about the world in your character page. If I like it ill approve it. If it doesn't fit ill ask you change it. If it seems important enough ill add it to the original post.

How you arrived in Alku: Samuel comes and goes from Alku with merchant caravans, selling his goods, the buying more to trade elsewhere.

Samuel wishes to gain influence in Erenos, and one day be able to influence political affairs with his wealth.
Bio: Samuel was born into a merchant family. From a young age his father showed him how to make money, and Samuel aspired to carry on his father's work. When his father died in the plague, Samuel inherited his belongings, and began moving from town to town trading goods for a profit. He began to map out all the places where different commodities were cheap to buy and expensive to sell, and from this he created an efficient trade route which he followed. He has amassed quite some wealth in the time he has been trading. He is considering buying more wagons so he can buy and sell goods more efficiently.
Other Information: That's pretty much it. If this RP gets enough attention and you reboot it, this is my guy.
