[OOC] Allaria Ch. 4: Rescue and Escape

[Rilla]

Synopsis:

Allaria is a multi-chapter Roleplay that has seen the successful completion of the first three chapters. It is a Fantasy roleplay that envelopes many of the usual tropes with some additional features to make it stand out. In previous incarnations, it proved to be a very popular roleplay that combined plot-driven roleplay with character driven roleplay, effectively making a game where, the end result could be vastly different from the stated goal. Not all of the world has been fleshed out, and due to Guildfall, many of the NPCs have been lost, as well as the laundry list of former players, not to mention many of the maps. However, much of the area known as the Hook has been fleshed.

About the World:

Allaria is a continent on a yet unnamed world. It comprises mainly of a Hook, characterized by the feature of it hooking around, two islands, one at the base of the Hook, and one in the Ocean off the southern coast, and a main continent.

Overview

Some of the notable explored cities include Valgar, a city that houses the Undead and has a strange effect on people who visit. The longer they stay, the more crazy they are driven(leaving reduces this effect, but is substantially harder to do if one stays too long). Rocoa is another notable city, as prior to the Apotheoses takeover, it was dubbed the 'God Capital' where all Gods were worshipped, freely.

The world to the west is inhbaited, however, and will be fleshed out as the series and chapters progress.

Allaria, the only explored land Kayfabe(storylined), is home to a variety of classical races, including humans, Surface Elves, Drow, Beastkin, Dragoniods, and Goblins. Each has their own God, except the Goblin race who don't believe in them, and their own 'Councilman/woman'.

The Story so Far

Hider

With the Gods in high Heaven, and the Council as middlemen, Allaria entered a lull which allowed a mysterious group of men and women to form and begin a takeover. It started as a peaceful one, the group encouraging those of the world to release their faith and put it in people they could see and feel, people they could talk too. As their ranks grew, did their methods turn from peace to violence - ultimately culminating in the heinous act known as the Mayor Drag in Port Jinn. An Apotheoses Leader, Ivan, used his malicious form of Healing to keep the Mayor of Port Jinn alive as he dragged him from the Hall, and out of Port Jinn, blood and guts trailing the way.

From the Eclava, the Drow Apotheoses leader, launched a full scale war on Port Jinn, as it was the last remaining major city or town not under the Apotheoses Iron Fist.

Groups of adventurers set out, leaving from Port Jinn and headed towards Rocoa, in hopes of recruiting there - but it was so havily under the fist of the Apotheoses they could do nothing. Yet, with the help of a traitor in the Apotheoses ranks, named Fananatu, a grup was able to escape a harsh fate - aided by the distraction of one of the Rocoan Three, the Rocoan Chimera.

Fananatu sent a group out to Mallah, which saw them aid in the resurrection of the second of the Three, the Undead Leviathan, in Valgar. This group was to participate in a gathering of Warlords and the like, in an effort to band Allaria together against the Apotheoses. This too, ended in somewhat of a failure.

On another island, a group was contracted to find out the state of the final of the Allarian Three - the Emperor Dragon. However, they were tricked by the Apotheoses and now they have control over the city sized dragon.

The Allarian Three came together at the Summit in Mallah and began a reign of terror, sending everyone scattering. Many died, but some remained to pass on word, or stop it.

Chapter Four Plot - Rescue and Escape!:

Our story takes place two years after the Summit. Bastion, once second in command to Eclava, has been a Apotheoses leader now for two years. His superior martial skill has allowed him to rule with an iron fist in the middle of Allaria, a sizeable location.

Our group of misfits have been newly entered into the burgeoning alliance and been tasked with retrieving notable War hero, Szazah, from the grips of the Apotheoses. But it won't be easy, as Bastion is a master of the military, and quite capable of taking on any seige. But things aren't all as they seem, he is a terrible politician when it comes down to it and forces are moving to take over in his stead. They may not be friendly to him, but their goals are set on leadership, so they'll be no help.

The extration point is the base of the mountains on the Northern side. But can the group make it there? Or will their actions derail the plans and put the Apotheoses firmly in the driver's seat once more.

Address to the Players:

Hider

Allaria is my roleplay baby, one of the biggest I've done and by far the longest lasting. I have high hopes for this RP, perhaps one day it being featured as a persistent world, but until then, I want you all to enjoy playing here and helping shape the world! It has been through many variations, and may even go through more. I'm a pretty easy going GM and usually try to be prompt with answering questions; however, I currently work on a sort of revolving schedule(next week, I'll be working Tuesday and Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, between 12-6/12-6, and 12-9/12-9, respectively.)

Allaria has hosted more than 50 roleplayers, and more than 70 characters, prior to Guildfall, in all of it's both successful and failed attempts.

Optional Reading:

Overall Plot

From the corruptible minds of scheming liaisons, the Council has become obsolete and the God’s have given up on those who once prayed to them nightly. Misconstrued words from the Council have fallen onto the ears of those who faithfully follow their Councilmen’s orders without question, leading to the hectic disposition of the world now. And this, this world that has fallen from grace, is the world you’ve been giving to shape and mold in the name of good. But, of course, you have no real reason to change the world; nothing was taken from you, not in the least. Or was it, where has your freedom went, when the place you called home has began to take in slaves? Began praying, not to the God’s above, but to the God’s who claim themselves a more accessible Council? At first, things were alright, a false trust built in people who had halted the messages from being truly passed along. And now, with their grasp steady around the necks of those who foolishly danced to their tune, once colorful words became as black as night and freedoms were stripped wherever they went.

You are the final frontier, be it trapped in one of these slowly rotting towns, or in a place where the dark grasp has not reached and belief in the True Council and God’s have remained true. This adventure takes you on a journey across a land, fighting to return peace to the land and power back to the rightful owners, or even show people that while the Council is a historic front, it is the people that truly make their own decisions. In this, you shall also find yourself, be it your salvation, or what you’ve always wondered about the world and how you fit.

Go forth and save the world.

Reaching the main plot, overreaching as it is, will take several plots and quests to get anywhere; like all questing Rps. This is to account for the large amount of land and the NPCs who all have different information and needs. It also helps to develop the plot and effect how people(The NPCs and fellow PCs) view you.

Expectation

I really want this to succeed, so I expect everyone to play their part and play it well. I want everyone to end this with new friends and roleplay partners, as well as a sense of accomplishment.

This is set in Advanced, so I would like Advanced standards. You don’t have to post as much as I do, but I want you all pushing the story. If not, then why even come here?

The participant limit will be down to at most five, however, if entry interest is sufficiently enough to have a team of people on either side, then I’ll come up with a suitable way to get everyone on board.

I also expect differing characters, while they may be of the same race, I don’t want all of them to be mages or warriors straight out of the gate. Make something you can grow into. Detail the change from a simple baker to fame, or infamy. Character Development should be the main point of this RP. Real Personalities, and not generic cookie cutter ones would be superb.

Just because I am the GM, doesn’t mean I need to be the only one to take initiative and push the RP. So, I expect the participants in this RP to move the RP, instead of just reacting to what I write. Have to get somewhere, don’t be afraid to get there; if I want you to change something, I’ll ask, but that probably won’t happen often.

FAQ

Tech Level: As this is a medieval world, everything will be as it was in that timeline, though ingenious inventions happen all the time. Therefore, there may be shimmers of the first sprouting of clockwork, nothing extremely large and certainly no firearms past crossbows.

Magic and how it works: In ‘An Imagined World’ magic is present everywhere, however, it is unable to manipulated by anyone who isn’t heavily trained in the magics of the universe. Because of this, people manipulate their own magic reserves(Their soul) to cast their magic. This has both consequences and rewards. On the good side, this opens up the world to a non-structured set of magic, by that, I mean, the type of magic is not limited to certain things, but there are still limits(Time/Space Manipulation is out; Reality; and extreme teleportation. Anything else is up to scrutiny, anything seen as overpowered, will be denied). On the bad side, you are casting your own soul when using magic, however, it DOES slowly replenish itself the longer you go without using magic. Healing, is allowed by those who specialize in it, and they are every rare. Most healers have no other skills past healing, as they are often used to in places where battle skills are unneeded. Also, with healing, healing magical wounds are often harder to do by magical means(Soul vs. Soul). It is possible, but it requires a longer period to do.

Magical Limits: I ask that people who choose magic, do so and forego, for the most part, major skills in more physical combat. Like, if you choose to manipulate(Including creating) fire, I would like it if you were not able to fight on par, always, with someone who went the physical route. There is a way to circumvent this, however, and that is using the magic purely on yourself and/or weapon. Say if you were manipulating lightning in a weapon sense; you’d only be able to use it in the form of arrows(If a bow and arrow were your weapon choice), or in conjunction with your fists or sword to give a shock(dependent on the strength of the spell). You get the gist. At the start, your magic may be relatively weak, growing as you progress in the story. Also, each soul has certain things it can do; a fire-related soul, for instance, won’t be able to do anything wildly differing from fire. Magic, as it stands, cannot be used to make a weapon composed completely of fire, doing so would consume a lot of a person’s soul, if not it in its entirety.

Character Type: This differs from race, as it goes more into profession. Not all of you have to be wanderers, nor do all of you have to be specific mages or warriors; add some variety, throw in some everyday folk.

Skills: Yes, there will be skill castes in this RP. Ranging from most things your mind can think of. Being an advanced RP, I would expect that you would come in with something sensible - A Major and a Minor.

Created Race(s): Not without very, very good reason. Most of the time, there won’t be a good reason.

Starting Level: At the beginning, I want everyone to start as novices/beginneers/noobs, in their chosen fields(See: Class/Skills), so as the story progresses the characters can develop, instead of starting off outright good at what they do. A baker/cook would cook for the group, during downtimes, and eventually get better at it, after cooking not so good meals.

Spirit Animals: These characters are physical, or metaphysical, representations of your spirit and what it represents. They act as spiritual guides, and can sometimes be used by god’s to convey thoughts to their spirit’s vessel. The closer a person is to their animal, the stronger his/her magic will become. At the beginning, most are only able to get their animal in the form of a hazy imprint; as time progress it’s ghostly presences comes about, and finally a physical specimen. Non-magical people have animals as well. Using a lot of magic causes the animal, if manifested, to slowly deplete based on how much magic you spent. Completely losing it, causes it to revert back into your body and be unable to summon(Cutting off your magic) the animal until sufficiently recovered.

Messenger Magic/Magic of the Messanger: This is a peculiar magic type, as it is very specific. It allows long range communication between messengers, and even between messenger and God(a very rare occurrence, almost always one way). They are identified by their once famous status of body ranging tattoos, head to toe. These are rare, as the Apotheoses member, Eclava, was able to construct a type of tower that was able to magically intercept messages being sent without proper approval. Messengers were also rounded up and killed, if not ‘impressed’ into the Apotheoses ranks.

Bestiary

Ursines

Name: Polaris
Size(Height/Weight): Six feet on all four paws, twelve on the back two. 2,950 pounds.
Area: Mostly found along the coast, where the forest is dense and there is access to the oceans.
Description: The Polaris Bear, commonly referred to as Polaris, is a fairly hard to find creature. Only an estimated thirty exist. They almost all have burnt orange fur, though one has been known to have black fur with a burnt orange underside. Their fur, unlike the common bear fur, is more akin to a German Sheppard’s. Their paws are between a foot, and sixteen inches long, and half as wide. Tough skin makes them harder to kill, as well.

Due to genetic mutation, their blood has altered their claws, which are a fearsome three to four inches long, into a metallic form - making them sharper than before. Their blood also has the peculiar property which makes them infertile, but also able to be reborn. If their blood is spilled, and not burned or otherwise disposed off, they can spawn up to two more Polaris Bears.

They are aggressive hunters, even going so far as attacking people if they stumble across them. Their normal food includes large elk, and oddly, great white sharks. They are wildly territorial, but have no loyalty to others of their kind, more often than not just staying out of each other’s way. It has only been reported once that two Polaris bears inhabited the same area.

Undead

Name: FleshBeast
Size(Height/Weight): Varied size, depending on what the flesh beast resembles.
Area: Commonly found in Valgar, city of the Undead, though at least one is known to work for the Apotheoses.
Description: Like all of the species inhabiting Valgar, the Fleshbeast is a reanimated deceased creature. They have no real magic, though some do have magical abilities, with the most known being able to shape shift.

Name: Undead Leviathan
Size(Height/Weight):
Area: Formerly off the coast of Valgar, current whereabouts are unknown to the general populace.
Description: The Undead Leviathan, also known as One of the Allarian Three, is one of the legendary creatures of Allarian History. It forms a trio with the Roccaon Chimera, and the Emperor Dragon. It is made now of bones magically mended together and dilapidated flesh stitched to it. It is an omnivore. It was killed by a legendary fisherman, named Bolit Heger and his crew, all of whom died within weeks of returning to shore. When Valgar was created some years later by a infamous Necromancer, he inadvertently drew the bones of the Leviathan to the coast of Valgar, where it remained in rest until recently.

Name:
Size(Height/Weight): Average size of a goldfish
Area: Freshwater rivers of Allaria, very populace, especially in the Southern parts of the country.
Description: These tiny carnivorous fish are the bane of many river fishermen, though they have developed some form of defense against them. They like to eat meat and often will settle for the bait fishermen use. While extremely common, many small villages use them as badges of honor - particularly, having proof of being in the water with them.

Race and Gods

Races/Gods

Human: Tall, strong, quick. Often wearing light armor, or heavy armor. Intelligent, able to become skilled in many weapons, including swords and bows, as well as all magic. The most compatible for a large selection of skills. The drawback, is they are only average in all skills, which lends to their ability to learn most things all around. Thus, growing in one, means leaving others behind to be picked up later.

Surface Elves: Standing at or around 5'11, they have gold tinted skin, pointed ears, and slightly almond shaped eyes. Generally always with blue to green eyes the Elves are forest dwellers. With intellect beyond that of most other races. Quite commonly in Light armor, if any. Their defenses are small, and they are incapable of learning Dark Arts, mostly.

Drow: Around 5’7”, lean, quick. Mostly wears light armor, for mobility. Fond of the Darker areas; as it reminds them of the underdark. Highly intelligent, Drow are the best spell caster when it comes to the power of a spell. Feared for the power of their spells, though they are often slower in casting than their Surface-bound cousins. They suffer from the same lack of defense, as the Surface elves as well.

Dwarves: Short, and stocky. Wears heavy armor. Excellent night vision, and somewhat exceptional daylight vision. Proficient in navigating mazes, and caves. This race is quite powerful, their stout size allows for their muscles to be bound tighter together, making for harder blows and increased endurance. However, what they have in power and endurance, they lack in speed and agility; as well, many of them do not have an affinity for magic, but make up for it in their ability to build things in half the time it would take another race. There is the extremely rare dwarves mage.

Dragoniods: This race is a rarity in of itself; being picked off by the Minotaur, due to their mutual distrust of each other. Capable of gliding several seconds, but not capable of extended flight. While smart in terms of the environment and battle tactics, they are quite dense in other areas, and lack speed a bit. This is made up by their strength and defense, the latter of which doesn’t hold up to a Dwarf’s. They are proficient in Magic, but not nearly as much as a human,

Beastkin: These have taken the place of the Minotaur race, to allow for more types of creatures. They are strong, and have many of the same basic advantages of animals, as well as losing some. There are many different sects, as some congregated based off what animal they are, and some live in a happy harmony, so to speak. They aren’t very magically inclined, most of their magic is based on self, and not so much as projecting magic. Prominent races include Minotaur, where one is a prominent member of the Apotheoses and Tengu, one of the Warlords, while the rest usually stick to themselves.

Goblin: Goblins are very short creatures, who believe in no God, but hold to the spirituality behind Reincarnation. They believe that when they die, they’ll simply be born as something as based off their deeds in their past life

Gods: These are always NPC, and will only serve to bend the PCs in a certain direction. Unless a person prays to that God, specifically, they won’t see them if they show up. It is not necessary to believe in any God.

Michael: The primary Human God; often appearing in a pristine set of armor.

El’I: The God of the Surface Elves; brother to the merciless God, Lloth. His teachings lend towards the way of good magic and how it affects the world we live in. Elves pray to him for guidance of their magic and protection of their home.

Lloth: The Black Goddess of the Drow. Most respect, fear, and love this Goddess, despite her tendency to be the harshest of the Gods.

Abbathor: The strong God of the Dwarves. Little is known about him, as most records show him constantly hammering away at his anvil; attempting to build a weapon, or material that outstrips anything before it. Dwarves have said that his blessings come in the form of better buildings and strength, something they value greatly.

Ouroboros: The God of the Dragonoids, and several snake-lizard-Dragon races in the world of Allaria. His true form is rarely seen, as it is often the form of the person he is appearing before. His mind state is psychotic at best.

Anomandaris: This is the God of the Beastkin, often appearing as a Minotaur or a Lion. He resides with the rest of the Gods, and often has a very war-like attitude when it comes to the events of those below.

Reincarnation: This would be the primary ‘God’ of the Godless race, the Goblins. They don’t believe in Gods, but to be represented, they were allowed to send one representative to reside with the rest. It often appears as a rotating set, from butterfly, to cat, to human, to butterfly.

[MelonHead]

Had some free time, here's my character.

Akael

Character Sheet

Name: Akael

Age: 37

Race: Surface Elf (Rakash Jungle Tribe)

Class: Major and Minor

Major: Witch Doctor/Tribal Apothecary (Essentially a tribal doctor)

Minor: Poisoner

God: El’l (Image somewhat different to normal surface Elves)

Appearance: Jungle Elves of the Rakash tribe span the line between the Drow and Surface Elf. Their skin is darker and greener in colouration, a significant advantage in their leafy homeland which they have lived in for thousands of years, long enough to evolve adaptive characteristics suitable for the jungle. Akael has a lighter green colouration than is normal, giving him a more ordinary Elf appearance, though anything more than cursory glance will cause someone to notice his skin is faintly green rather than tanned. His face is angular and each cheek is tattooed with a thin wavy black line made up of strange runes. He has green eyes and shoulder length brown hair that’s tied into messy dread-locks.

He stands at roughly 5ft 8” tall and has a thin wiry build. He tends to wear a brown travellers cloak to hide his appearance and something which looks like brown leather shorts, with no shoes or a shirt.

Reference: http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Evercursed/media/Header/Ambush.jpg.html

Personality: Akael has a grim sense of humour and is prone to periods of morally questionable activity. He is however fervently devoted to his tribe, but this also means he is fairly xenophobic and bad at unfamiliar social interaction. He can come across as cruel or mean and often scares members of the resistance when he is employed with them, which is a poor trait for a doctor, but an excellent trait for a poisoner.

Spirit Animal: Gasp Lizard

Equipment: Mortar and Pestle, Three Reinforced Glass Flasks, Water Skin, Bone Knife, Apothecary Belt, Apothecary Satchel.

Ingredients: Xen Root (Mild Curative)
Jal Root (Mild Sedative)
Hemus Root (Severe Laxative)
Roka Dust (Powerful Effect Enhancer)
Gasp Poison (Lethal Poison)
Jora Dust (Mild Coagulant)
Relkan Leaf (Mild Painkiller)
Venr Antivenom (Powerful Anti-Poison)
Jorna Sap (Powerful Stimulant)

Skills:
Major: Witch Doctor
Minor: Assassin

Magic: Although Akael seems to have no inherent magic, his ability to create potions and recognise plants and ailments has been described as uncanny, it is possible he has some sort of supernatural insight.

Strength: Akael has the interesting duality of a basic healer and a poisoner all in one, giving him the ability to produce chemical agents for a wide variety of situations and a significant amount of flexibility. He is incredibly competent when traversing the Jungle, and can avoid the dangers of such a place with ease.

He is also fairly competent at using a knife in combat, especially when using Rakasha potion, which is a powerful stimulant that increases his reaction times, speed and endurance at the cost of shaking and fatigue after the effects wear off.

Weakness: Akael is poor with a bow, which is unusual for a Surface Elf and a serious disadvantage considering his skills. The reason for this is his near addiction to Rakasha Potion, which causes similar effects to ADHD and makes careful aim and stalking difficult.
Akael knows next to nothing about social practice or the general layout of anything outside of the Jungle. He is out of his depth in a city, and may miss obvious social or physical ques and get himself into trouble.

Post Color: Delicious Green

History: Akael’s history is relatively unknown, he made contact with the resistance about three years prior after they raided an Apotheoses camp on the outskirts of the jungle where he had been taken prisoner. They released him immediately, perhaps trying to garner popularity with the Elf Tribes in the jungle, and Akael took the opportunity to flee back to his home. Eventually the Witch Doctor of the tribe, his uncle, learned about the debt Akael owed the Resistance. Partly due to this, and partly because the Witch Doctor foresaw the destruction of the Jungle should the Apotheoses prove victorious, Akael was sent back to the resistance to serve. Surprisingly they were fairly enthusiastic about his service, though as his skills became apparent many grew fearful, and others saw opportunity.

Post Sample: You’ve probably read a hundred of my posts by now, you must be bored of my writing ^_^

Will get sheet up soon!

@MelonHead Good character, though I'd like you to further explain how those weaknesses are actual weaknesses. I can sort of see the second one, but ultimately that one would come down to you deciding which cues he'd miss.

The first goes over my head, as, I never really see not using X weapon as a weakness when you have another weapon, that can probably be augmented with poison.

@Rilla

Well, I was under the impression Elves are physically frail? So running up and shanking someone puts you close enough to get pummelled. It also removes one of the greatest advantages of guerilla warfare by taking away your ability to fight from range. This is also in conjunction with his addiction to a stimulant, which you may have missed.

Secondly, the lack of social skills puts him at a disadvantage using his poisons, as does his first weakness, because he can't easily talk his way into someone's confidence and then poison them. He would also fail to recognise a number of things that would seem obvious to anyone who had visited a city before such as -

1. Guard posts
2. Marketplaces
3. Slums
4. Criminal areas
5. What symbols mean in regards to different shops

So essentially my characters main weaknesses are a lack of combat skills save for the ability to use a knife (in conjunction with a stimulant which has its own negative effects) an inability to shoot a bow and therefore poison people from range, and a lack of social skills which makes poisoning people covertly difficult.

I can add more if this doesn't seem like enough.

[Rilla]

You would be surprised what a good shank in' can do. Hahaha.

I just wanted further explanation for it.

You can place the Good Doctor in the CS thing. And I need your color, nah'mean.

Everyone can, I can accept them there.

[MelonHead]

I'm using this green

[Rilla]

I'm using this green

@MelonHead

Cool.

Gonna see if Mahz has plans to add the name of colors like on OldGuild

[GreivousKhan]

What do you mean by weaknesses exactly? Is it something extra beyond the limitations of a class?

[MelonHead]

What do you mean by weaknesses exactly? Is it something extra beyond the limitations of a class?

@GreivousKhan

Rilla basically likes your character to have a couple of things they're worse than average at, unless they're not particularly good at anything, in which case their weakness sort of becomes how mundane they are.

Also it usually has to be physical so he can pull out some shit to screw you over at some point.

[Rilla]

Preferably, yes. Such as Melon's is frail, but also has extra weaknesses. It doesn't have to be much, really. Just something that makes sense, and if questioned can be answered as readily as Melon did.

[Rilla]

In case I need Melon's character to revive the Legend Kill.

[GreivousKhan]

So kind of like flaws in D20 Unearthed Arcana?

OK that kind of makes sense.

[MelonHead]

In case I need Melon's character to revive the Legend Kill.

@Rilla

I wish that post was saved, as a reminder to all comers of what may happen to your poor character should you leave without warning.

[Rilla]

No idea what that even is.

Maybe I should write another. XD

[MelonHead]

Well, there were two legend kills in that run of Allaria.

1. Forsoff being thrown off his feet by a chicken and accidently headbutting a guy in the ass, causing him to slam into a tree and break his neck. (It was hilarious that we all shrugged his death off like, lol w/e he left, in IC haha.)

2. Forsoff instant killing the first Chicken with an axe throw.

You might also remember some of the other bullshit I pulled in that adventure, such as drunkenly fighting Ogre's and having one of them fall on their own weapon and die.

If I remember correctly, we were accosted by skeletons and Forsoff was the only one who actually fought, everyone else immediately went for diplomacy.

I'm pretty sure Forsoff was the only reasonable man in our party.
