RockettePlayers will be able to choose between three races tom play as, which include Humans, Dwarves and Elves. The diferences are very small, as I'd like to keep things simple and straightforwardd.
Humans: Like you and me. Various sizes, colors and buuilds.
Dwarves: Short and stocky, males usually have big beards and the ladies are usually thicc and stacked. Dwarves are stronger and tougher than humans, but tend to be slower and have a harder time learning magic from tomes than the other races.
Elves: Elves look like humans, but with long pointy ears and are typically a bit shorter on average. Elves are faster, more dexterous and agile, and have better natural sense than humans, but are typically less physically strong and less durable.
And that's all she wrote. If you wanna be a dwarf from some undeground mountain keep, go for it. But you could just as well be a dwarf who lived in a surface-city and was a baker. No pre-existing notions of what the races prefer or what their society is like exists, so feel free to come up with your own background and culture if you want, for your character at least.

Magic comes in two forms; Staves/wands and Tomes. The latter is a book, a grimoire of power, that - by reading - your character will learn a spell from, which they can then cast at will. The former, is a magic tool, which has been enchanted to contain a specific spell of a specific strength, but that can be used by anyone without even having any knowledge or skill in magic at at all. Tomes require you to study and practice, while staves/wands give you access to instant, but limited number of uses, magic.
Everything and everyone in the world possess magic energy. Staves/Wands work by drawing in ambient magical energies, converting it automatically into the spell, and then discharging it as the wielder commands. Meanwhile, magic spells learned through tomes require the caster the channel a bit of magic of their own to act as a catalyst, allowing they themselves to draw in ambient magic and then formulating and casting the spell on their own. The process is similar in both cases, but the mehtod is different.
Spells come in five distinct tiers, and each spell requires an individual tome to be learned, or a seperate staff/wand to cast. The tiers are:
- Novice
- Apprentice
- Adept
- Expert
- Master
Naturally, the higher tier a spell is, the more magic it needs to be cast. As well as the more expensive the tome and staff/wand will be. I'd urge players not to start with any spells above 'Apprentice' level though, as I'd like for you all to have something to work towards and not just be able to 'Earth Wall' up entire new houses on Day 1.
there are also six elements in the world, whcih consist of the following:
- Air/Wind
- Earth/Plant
- Fire/Heat
- Water/Ice
- Dark/Shadow
- Light/Holy
the elements all work in a mirror-match scenario. Meaning that each of the opposing elements are both strong against, but also weak to, their respective counterpart. Again, things are kept simple and straightforward.
More details and better explanations will be found in the OOC; if it gets made.

Everything you do in this Roleplay will require stamina. From tearing down the old buildings, sawing new planks, fishing, tilling the soil or just exploring, every sungle thing will drain some of your body's energy. Which means you won't be able to do things like continuous hard labor for an entire day without getting fatigued, or fight endless hordes of monsters on your own without a breather. You can increase your stamina, of course, but there won't be a hard number of stamina-points to keep track of.
Instead, each player is asked to be fair and reasonable with the amount of actions and the intensity of what it is they're doing. I don't want to police everyone, but if I feel that someone is just doing thing after thing adfer thing, with no indication that they're getting worn down, I will step in as GM. So, let's try and be reasonable and not act as if our blood was filled with Red Bull all the time, 'kay? Like, I'm not saying taht your character should start breathing heavily and be exhausted after pushing a wheelbarrow from point A to point B, or that they need to sit down everytime they take a swing with a timber axe. Just keep your character's physique in mind and try to not go overboard wiht their activity, and all's good~

Name: Fin Runnard
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Description:
This young man puts you in mind of a lost and wandering spirit. He has slitted eyes the color of pine needles. His thick, curly, brown hair is worn in a style that reminds you of a tangled bush. He is short and has a skinny build. His skin is very pallid, like someone who's been sick a long time - or has been kept out of the sun. There are a mass of scars on his back, and he has shackle galls on his wrists and ankles that he tries to hide. What clothes he has are ill-fitting, like they were sewn for someone larger.
Personality:
Fin is well-mannered, although a bit skittish. Likes to drink, to sing and laugh, but rarely talks about himself. His humor can be a bit dark at times.
Quirks:
- Has to sit with his back towards a wall.
- Loves fresh fruit, especially berries.
- Light sleeper.
- When pacing in thought, he walks as if he's inside a small invisible box, like a mime.
Brief History:
It's known that he's from a large family - his father would breed dogs and his mother taught him how to play the lute and to sing. He has a twin sister, who he's not seen in a very long time. Claims he was taken hostage from a caravan and forced to live in a cave while waiting for his family to pay the ransom. Eventually he found a way out. After many days without count, he wandered into the village.
