Alright, I will get started on my character sheet then.
Very interested in taking part. How many people are you accepting for the group?
I have sent you a PM.
The cheerful glow of the sun's light mocked the battlefield, various bodies strewn about like discarded dolls thrown from a petulant childs toy box.
Birds of carrion called to one another, signalling that a feast was about to commence, other scavengers lurked in the shadows of nearby trees as they knew all to well the results of being caught in the open.
A slight tremor shook the ground, scattering the birds that had already descended to gorge themselves on the sun kissed flesh. The tremor came again, this time causing a small rift to open along one side of the battlefield, air rushed out of the open orifice and a noxious fume filled the sky. Those creatures unfortunate enough to be anywhere near the gaseous cloud dropped out of the sky or simply collapsed.
A necromancy spell had been unearthed due to the small quake, one of great power and even greater evil. It was a signature spell of one Archlich Serventus, a long undead and buried creature of dreadful powers.
The lich's chambers had remained undisturbed for several centuries, not even the long lived elven race would have much memory of the terrible being, a memory of such wanton destruction and unmatched cruelty would have been washed away in one of the elven moonpools.
Darkness lay unbroken and silent, no signs of anything living had touched the rooms in a very long time. The cobwebs, whilst plentiful were brittle with age and filled with the husks of both predator and prey, they were also thick with dust, much like everything else in the room.
There was a large tapestry covering one wall, its beauty now marred by time, rot and dirt. It must have been a grand piece of art once, now it looked like a tattered curtain waiting to be thrown on a fire. The lone piece of furniture that had escaped relatively untouched was the gigantic throne of Serventus. It's occupant sat perfectly still on the once plush cushions.
The skull's rictus grin and lifeless eyes suddenly moved, a dark purple light sprang into existence in the empty sockets and the jaw worked itself until it was loose enough to move without cracking. Next the skeletal figure began to move it's arms, slight juddering movements that ripped the brittle fabric and cobwebs that had encased them. The hands began to show signs of life next, flexing, clenching and then manipulating each digit. First the left hand and when Serventus was satisfied, the right. Lastly the legs, they shook free of the cobwebs and kicked out, snapping a fine golden chain that encircled one bony foot.
The Archlich had awoken...

I would like for people to join me in the quest to stop the Archlich from regaining his full powers, causing death and destruction wherever he goes and being a downright pain in the good folks of Tethella's backsides. (Unless of course there are a couple who want to play bad guys?).

Basically the premise is this, Elves locked Serventus away centuries ago, they lost a lot of their own powers in doing so and the elders amongst them at the time gave their lives in creating a massive dome over the entire elven lands, this is called the veil. (it is like a gigantic soap bubble), people with pure hearts may cross unharmed, although anyone who is not elven or an elf-friend (someone the elves trust almost as much as another elf). They will either become disoriented and turned around until they leave the elven lands, or a patrol will capture them and take them in for questioning.

Serventus wants revenge, he will stop at nothing to destroy all the elves.

I do have a loose plot worked out, but it is not set in stone.

Other races are acceptable (not everyone wants to be elven after-all).

Hopefully there are enough people ( 6 would be fantastic) to show interest.

I will go into more detail with races etc if needed.
Well thanks for the clarification, I just meant it as the fact that the two people who started (as in the first two on the list) have both had to drop out because of real life things (which is not uncommon as real life is there to stop us all from having fun).
I will wait and see what happens before deciding what I will be doing. The two people who started the Roleplay have both had to leave and that is never a good sign.
A police precinct is needed, my character and the corrupt cop could have worked at the same one without meeting.

My apartment could be in the shady part of the city near or even in the same building as Raven's.

A couple of shady nightclubs and diners would not go a miss. That way there is always other places to arrange meet ups between characters and their informants etc.
Well my character is a glorified bodyguard as well as a wellspring of information on quite a few illegal operations through his informants and the prostitutes he lives with.
He would have a very good reason for being at the party, either as someones bodyguard (could be another character's), his girls protector, or to deliver information.

If anyone wants to use him for their characters bodyguard then they can do. It would also have one relationship established, so a couple of character would actually know each other without having to be related.
If anyone wants to add me on Skype my name on there is barewulf1981. It should come up with the same profile pic as I have on here.
Why not have everyone start out being in the same gang/mob. A bank heist could be planned, goes wrong and two people in the gang (npc's) could get killed. This splits the gang up into two groups. Both sides thinking it was the others fault. It would cause a blood feud etc etc.

Or there could be some sort of mob boss who sends out "invitations" to individuals that are talented enough to intrigue him/her. They would have to prove themselves worthy of a position in his family but something goes wrong and two gangs are formed instead and they both decide that they could run the illegal activities in the city better than one crime family could.

Just a couple of suggestions.
