[OOC] Asdivine Mercenaries Guild

[Shikaru]

Alrightie. Some of you may be familiar with Asdivine Dios, a pretty good android and iOS game similar to Final Fantasy and other such RPG's. The premise is set around Izayoi, the worlds deity, and three of its governing spirits set out to stop a man from destroying all things divine whilst battling the 'murk' an evil force that causes would-be harmless creatures to attack humans.

There is a Mercenary guild mentioned several times in the RPG, un-fortunately you can't do much in it aside from arena runs.

TL;DR, this RP is based upon that mercenary guild and the murk, even if only loosely ao those un-familiar with the game will be able to grasp it.

The world of Asdivine is quiet massive, I haven't explored much of it nor finished the game so many areas will either be custom or added as the RP goes.

The world of Asdivine only had two 'civilized' species persay, humans and spirits. However, in this RP there will be many more races and civilizations than mere humans and spirits. You are free to make your own, however, nothing stupid like a rainbow farting dubstep unicorn goblin. You will be denied and barred from posting on this thread.

There will be magic, enchanted equipment, and lots of other things. No, this will not be DnD on Roleplayerguild, simply a very expansive roleplay with special things.

I will explain some things about the past, such as who Odium was and the like. Odium was the main bad dude, takes place after he is killed(un-sure if killed in the game, just goin' with that).

Now then, onto le plot and such.
-----

Setting: You being in the town of Apricus, 500 AO(After Odium) in the mercenary guild of The Blinding Sun.

Plot: Ever since you were young you heard tales of great warriors from the mercenary guild, taking on life risking jobs and protecting the innocent of your village and others. You wondered and dreamed what it would be like to be one of them, you decided once you were old enough you'd join the guild and fight alongside the heroes of old against the murk.

And finally, today is that day.

Races:

Human

Shy of the Spirits themselves the oldest living race in Asdivine. Plain old generic humans, the source of the murk with their greed and anger. They hold the power to destroy the murk or destroy Asdivine with it, as well as having the most diversity in their skillsets.

Spellborn

Spellborns are said to be a cross of a Spirit and a human, others say they were creations of the deity himself. Spellborns have a natural affinity with a chosen element and its magic to go with it. Spellborns lives are also tied to their magical strength, the more they over-exert themselves the weaker they get, possibly life threatning. Their eyes glow with whatever element they are affiliated with, as such it is relatively easy to spot a Spellborn.

Murkens

Murkens are humans whom have bonded with the Murk, harnessed it for un-imaginable power. They are able to keep the Murk from taking them over through various charms and seals. Generally seen as abominations to many, they don't like revealing their powers, keeping themselves covered with thick clothes to avoid having any of the dark patches of Murk crawling across their skin seen by others.

Dawrves

One of the many races that have began showing up in Asdivine, perhaps they have been there all along but never bothered to show themselves. Small folk, usually miners. Never growing to be more than 4 ft tall, even then that is on the tall side. Don't let their size fool you, they are smart, cunning, and masterful engineers. Most of the designs for the new machinery comes from them.

Elves

Elves, the creatures of the forest. Nearly the exact same as a human only marginally shorter in height, they live for hundreds of years and are expert marksmen. They rarely leave their homes in the forest, preferring to keep to themselves and only trade amongst other Elves. Generally their towns are blocked from the average creature by a powerful ward that repels you away from it if you get near it without you ever knowing. Of course, they also have pointy ears.

Thems are the races. If you wish to add your own custom race, do be sure to put at-least some detail into describing it.

The Map of Asdivine

Take this map with you alongside your standard Mercenaries handbook so you don't get lost in The Poisonous Woods and die while choking on mushroom spores.

Apricus Town

Apricus Town, home to the guild of The Blinding sun, the most famous guild in Asdivine, and the Capital City of the continent of Bachlang.

The Guild is the staple of the town, and precisely why it is the Capital. The Guild itself is what keeps the various towns and villages safe from the Murk alongside a few small errands here and there. Not only is the Guild simply a place for all of its members to find work and relax after a hard job, it's home to an arena. Where more...daring
..mercenaries slay powerful monsters that have been captured and sealed for people from all over to come and watch.

Aside from the Guild, the town is also famous for having the best seafood on the continent, living directly next to the coastline. Apricus is home to many Inns and restaurants, as well as a few pubs. A bustling city living up to its name of being the Capital.

The Poisonous Woods

A few miles due east of Apricus, and also what stands between you, Bachlang Pass, and the Dwarven Mines. It is home to many a dangerous creature effected by the Murk, the flora itself affected. Living up to its name, many of the creatures and plants in the forest have deadly poisons, ready to lash out and kill the unknowning traveler that dared pass through un-prepared.

Many traders and travellers hire mercenaries from the guild to get them through this forest, it being the quickest route from the north end of the continent to the south. Through the forest lies Bachlang Pass, a tunnel through the mountain connecting the North and the South. The only alternatives to reach it is a long hike lasting several days through the mountains or navigating through reefs by boat.

The Dwarven Mines

After making your way out of The Poisonous Woods, presuming you headed due north as your map suggested and didn't decide to explore, you will come to a cross-roads. Further north will take you to Bachlang Pass, due east will take you the Dwarven Mines, home to many Dwarves and also the main source of minerals for Bachlang. The entrance is carved into the side of a massive mountain, and even more massive series of tunnels constructed within to keep out thieves and the like. If you have no buisiness with the Dwarves, you probably shouldn't be here or risk getting lost forever.

Bachlang Pass

Bachlang Pass, due north from the Woods. The easiest path to the North end of the continent. A day or so walking through the tunnel and you will come out west of Ambrosia Woods, wherein the center lies a massive tree, hundreds of feet tall said to be home to one of the governing spirits.

Due north of the Woods is Klaver Village, a small trade village and also a location known for its ferry over to Yaupon Village.

North-West of the Pass is a massive forest that houses an abundance of rare herbs, seemingly un-touched by the Murk, a prime spot for many traders and such to get goods to sell or cook with. Of course, unbeknownst to most it houses the Elvish village of Kathar, only a handful have seen it, though there have been stories depicting sightings of the Elves in the forest.

Ambrosia Woods

A popular location for travelers to visit due to the Spirit Tree that resides within. Some say they've seen the Spirit, others think they're simply crazy. If you're lucky, you will see a few sprites zipping around going on about their daily lives. Ambrosia is mostly un-touched by the Murk, but there been cases where a animal or sprite affected by the Murk attacked a traveller. As such, some of the more fear prone will hire a mercenary to help guide them through.

Klaver Village

Klaver village, a small simple town consisting of a few shops and the Inn. The main staple of the village is the Ferry to Yaupon and the continent of Garan to the west.

Kathar Forest

Kathar Forest, secretly home to the Elvish village of Kathar and un-touched by the Murk. Many rare herbs and spices grow plentifully here, often picked by traders and doctors. If you're lucky you just might catch a glimpse at the wild-life or even an Elf itself.

@TheSecret Approved. Going to get to work on the rest of the stuff for the RP now.

[Shikaru]

Bump. Races are in, a portion of the world is made as well. I'll continue editing it in a bit, for now feel free to make a CS.

[Shikaru]

Finished the Northern side of Bachlang, I really hope more people join this. I promise it won't be boring once we get started :p.

[Shikaru]

Will get around to editing more of this in a bit. Guess no one wants to join? :/

[Shikaru]

Guess no one is interested in this RP...I might start it again in the future with less of a vague thing and finish up the areas and such..

[BytheSpleen]

Wouldn't this fit more for casual or Advanced?

[Shikaru]

@BytheSpleen True..but more people generally come by Free roleplay. I might have better luck in Casual though.
