REALM OF AGES~THE COMING STORM



IC~Coming Soon!

Iesone.
A strange and mysterious realm far to the Southern Hemisphere.
This land is rich, fertile, and littered with treasures of old and secrets beyond a mans wildest dreams.But it is also home to terrible monsters and hostile races which guard over this ancient land with a vigor no King or Emperor can inspire.

Despite this, Human and Dwarven settlers through the decades have chosen to settle here and build villages and large city states.With this the leaders of these great cities formed powerful armies and built massive defensive measures to protect and maintain their territories and settlements.Though occasional disputes between cities and clans would break out there has not been a war in the land of Iesone for over one hundred years now.The Human and Dwarven cities have all managed to maintain peace and civility with one another though there are bitter rivalries between certain cities.

Despite the shaky peace amongst the cities they are all faced with common foes.
To the South, the dark skinned Elven race known as the Drow lay siege to the Southern settlements,raiding and attacking unexpectedly, attempting to drive off the Humans and reclaim their ancestral lands.
To the West, the primitive and barbaric Lacertae, or Lizard Men, skirmish with the Dwarves in efforts to drive them away from the marshes they call home, marshes that the Dwarves believe to be rich with precious metals and jewels.
Deep within the caves of the Northern and Eastern Mountains, the Goblins and Orcs are constantly feuding with one another for control of the rich mountains, all the while keeping the Human and Dwarven miners and explorers at bay.
Despite decades of skirmishing with such formidable foes, the city states have managed to maintain their freedom and time and again have driven off these vile attackers.

However, little known to the peoples of Iesone, a new foe rides on the northern horizon, a massive horde of warrior nomads known as the Sagai.Powerful, merciless, and skilled in the arts of war, the Sagai are a people who bring bloodshed, terror, and misery to every realm they cross.
Leaving behind only terrified stragglers to tell the tale.
Worse yet, the Drow have been restless as of recent, word is spreading across the land of vicious attacks and skirmishes with Drow forces.While to the North the Orcs and Goblins have been escalating their attacks and activities in the mountains.Sorcerers and Wizards have seen ill omens and a terrible future in their dreams and amongst the stars.
Soon this once peaceful land, that has not seen war in over a century, will soon be consumed by the fires of chaos....

Humans-Humans immigrated to Iesone a decade or so just after the Drawves, around two hundred years ago.They immigrated from many different lands and countries in all directions.
Some were settlers and explorers while some were exiles or bloodbath refugees.
Most human city states are built in the South, Southeast, and East, in territories such as Rathikun, Scassia, Alenius, and Telmarion.Their economy and way of life revolves mostly around farming, fishing, and livestock breeding.
The majority of their cities and cultures represent early medieval Northern Europe and Mediterranean nations such as England, France, Sicily, Spain, and Venice.

Dwarves-Drawves were the first to immigrate to Iesone two centuries ago after their united clan kingdom was conquered and wiped out by the Orc hordes far to North.
They settled mostly to the West and North within the territories of Nash, Orog, Windemere, and Iruladdun.
Their economy and way of live is mostly centered around hunting and mining, and trading furs, jewels, and metals with Human city states in exchange for foods and other goods.
Dwarves are excellent fighters and well disciplined in battle.
They value honor and victory most of all in combat, and though fierce fighters, respect their enemies and never underestimate them.
Dwarves are noble and proud, and very intelligent.
Their life span usually ranges from 100-130.

Drow/Dark Elves-The Drow inhabit the Southern territories of Raeldar, Cawanor, and parts of Alenius.For decades they have been feuding with the Humans for total control of Alenius and Scassa.Unlike the Humans and Drawves they dwell deep within the forests and high mountains of the Southern Territories only and nowhere else.Their homes are deep within the bowels of the forests and mountains and are much like long houses, some of their homes are made of trees and logs themselves, molded into house shapes and structures.As a race they are united, they have no states or tribes or independent factions.
They are arrogant, elitist, and a very close minded society.
They believe the Humans will eventually intrude upon their lands and slaughter them all to gain them for themselves, and so therefore have been feuding with them for decade after decade to keep them away.
They like the Dwarves are vicious in battle yet noble and believe in honor and virtue.
Though prideful like the Dwarves many would perceive them as arrogant and elitist.
They range from 5'10 to 6'4 in height, they have charcoal black skin, red sparking eyes, and Snow White hair.

They speak using a language of hisses, grumbling, hacking, and snorts.
They usually stand around six foot tall on average, both male and female.

Their life span ranges from 70-100 years.
Unlike the Humans, Dwarves, and Drow, they have absolutely no magical ability whatsoever.

Orcs-Like the Lacertae, the Orcs are barbaric creatures.However they are actually far more intelligent and advanced than the Lacertae, their weapons and equipment are more modern and so are the ways of war.They primarily dwell in the Northern and Eastern Mountains bordering the Uzgob Desert.
Like the Lacertae they are separated into tribes and clans and live in huts, tents, and lean-to's.They live in villages consisting between eight hundred and two thousand Orcs.

Elves/Light Elves-The Light Elves, or just simply the Elves, were the oldest race to ever inhabit the lands of Iesone.However, they all vanished mysteriously about a decade or so before the arrival of the Dwarves.Though no one knows how or why many believe that it was at the hands of the Drow.Though there is no evidence to prove this.
The Drow themselves deny up and down that they had a hànd in it.
It is obvious to all though that they were the first race to ever immigrate to this land, as there are Elven structures and ruins scattered all across the lands, from Alenius to Orog.
There have been many through the last two centuries who have searched and searched for clues and answers, though answers have not been found and the clues seem to go in circles.
Many wonder of the mystery of the Elves will ever be solved.

===============================================================

MONSTERS AND BEASTS

Dragon-Dragons are extremely rare creatures to see.In fact throughout the last two hundred years since the Dwarves arrived only three or so proven Dragon sightings have happened.One was by a merchant who's ship was passing by the mysterious Summer Islands.
Another was by a band of Knights who claimed to have seen it above the Southern Alenius Mountains.The third was by a group of miners who spotted it above the forest of Iraladunn.
These three were the only proven sightings.However the land is littered with their fossils and skeletons which are extremely valuable, much like ivory, only far more valuable than that.

Stories tell of a single Marestrum that lives in the center of the Irman Sea.
Though there are no confirmed sightings, many sailors and merchants in the last decade claim to have seen a massive shape too large for a whale or shark moving under the water, causing small waves the size of a castle.
Though it's not proven many prefer to stay close to the coast and take the longer way across the sea, as to avoid taking a chance of this creature being real.

They are supposedly immortal though this has never been proven, they usually reside in caves and large long tunnels.

Elves/Light Elves-The Light Elves, or just simply the Elves, were the oldest race to ever inhabit the lands of Iesone.However, they all vanished mysteriously about a decade or so before the arrival of the Dwarves.Though no one knows how or why many believe that it was at the hands of the Drow.Though there is no evidence to prove this.
The Drow themselves deny up and down that they had a hànd in it.
It is obvious to all though that they were the first race to ever immigrate to this land, as there are Elven structures and ruins scattered all across the lands, from Alenius to Orog.
There have been many through the last two centuries who have searched and searched for clues and answers, though answers have not been found and the clues seem to go in circles.
Many wonder of the mystery of the Elves will ever be solved.

Stories tell of a single Marestrum that lives in the center of the Irman Sea.
Though there are no confirmed sightings, many sailors and merchants in the last decade claim to have seen a massive shape too large for a whale or shark moving under the water, causing small waves the size of a castle.
Though it's not proven many prefer to stay close to the coast and take the longer way across the sea, as to avoid taking a chance of this creature being real.

INTRO MOVIE m.youtube.com/watch?v=k4L_S9K-BkQ

"Every single Jedi, including your friend, Obi-Wan Kenobi, is now an enemy of the Republic.
Do what must be done Lord Vader, do not hesitate, show no mercy."

"The Jedi will be purged."

"Did we have any private traitorous thoughts?
Perhaps, but no one said a word, not when Order 66 was given, not on the flight to Coruscant, and not when we marched on the Jedi Temple.
Not a word."


_______________________________________________________________

Galactic year 19 BBY.
The Confederacy of Independent Systems had fallen, approximately five hours ago on the outer rim world of Utapau Obi-Wan Kenobi engaged and destroyed General Grievous, leader of the Separatist Droid Armies.
On learning this, Jedi master Mace Windu and three other masters prepared to depart the Jedi Temple for the Galactic Congress building to ensure that Chancellor Palpatine declared the war to be over and surrender his emergency powers.
However, before their departure, young Anakin Skywalker caught up with Windu and informed him that he discovered that Palpatine was a Dark Lord of the Sith, thus confirming the gathered suspicions and fears of the Jedi Order that Palpatine was indeed behind all of the galaxies troubles within the recent years.
The reappearance of the Sith, the blockading of Naboo, the death of Qui-Gon Jinn, the creation of the Confederacy and the war that had plagued the galaxy these past years.
Windu and his counterparts acted quickly, they ordered Skywalker to stay behind, and on arriving
at Congress they confronted Palpatine leading to a brief duel in which Windu's comrades were slain by Palpatine, forcing him to face the Dark Lord alone.
He however bested Palpatine who was revealed as the Sith Lord Darth Sidious.
However, Skywalker, who had disobeyed Windus orders, arrived and saw what he perceived as a Jedi assassination attempt.
Windu quickly fended off a lighting attack by Sidious, however, after recovering before he could destroy Sidious and end it all Skywalker, whom Sidious had been twisting and manipulating against the Jedi for months now, struck out against Windu, cutting off his hand and crippling him.
Sidious then finished Windu off with a barrage of force lighting and sent him flailing out of a nearby window down towards the streets of Coruscant to his death.
Skywalker, now stunned at what he had just done, was quickly played over by Sidious, whom began playing on his fears and doubts, convincing him that by turning to the Dark Side and aiding him in seizing the Republic and destroying the Jedi that the galaxy would finally know peace and that Anakin and his wife Padme would live in safety and prosperity and could raise their child in
tranquility.
Anakin willingly surrendered himself to the Dark Side and Sidious, whom named him as his knew apprentice and dubbed him as Darth Vader.

Within the hour Palpatine issued Order 66 to his Clone Armies across the galaxy.
While the Clones abroad began turning on and murdering their Jedi commanders, Anakin Skywalker himself lead a massive army of thousands of Clone soldiers on the Jedi Temple, thus carrying out Order 66, Operation Knight Fall, and the Rise Of The Empire.......

_______________________________________________________________

PLOT/SETTING

This RP obviously is set during the execution of Order 66.
Anakin Skywalker is leading an army of thousands of clone soldiers onto the Jedi Temple, while Chancellor Palpatine, now revealed as Darth Sidious, is sending the message out across the galaxy to the Clone armies who are now betraying and murdering their Jedi commanders.
All the while the scattered remnants of the droid armies continue to fight on with the clone forces while the separatist leaders cower on Mustafar.
You have several different character classes to choose from and endless options to explore and act on.
You can control a rogue Jedi leading a resistance against the Empire.
Perhaps a smuggler or pirate trying to build a criminal Empire strong enough to counter the rising Sith Empire.
Or a bounty hunter hunting down Jedi for the Empire.
Or you can totally avoid the Empire's rise and go off and carry out your own plans, for example building a Pirate Cartel or a seizing an underdeveloped world as your own.
The options are endless!
