Is it possible to join one of the orders of knights, even if one is not originally from Korros Tor? @Red Wizard
I'd think so, sure. Why don't we find out together, in the game? 🙂

Arguing over petty details at times of dimensional emergency was a familiar wizardly trait.

A wizard never had friends, at least not friends who were wizards. It needed a different word. Ah yes, that was it. Enemies. But a very different class of enemies. Gentlemen.

We're going to use Fate. I want to try the system. Whoever doesn't like that is free to opt out.
I'll get started on the actual game thread.

Here's the promised bit about Korros Tor!
Korros Tor lies in the eastern riverlands. It is one of the oldest human settlements in the Vale, having been founded roughly three centuries ago by nobles houses who fled a failed coup in the Batezek empire in the south of the world. Having come from a chivalrous tradition, the nobles wasted no time in erecting a fortress and quickly began expanding their territory through military conquest. Even today, Korros Tor is famous for its many orders of knights, who constantly busy themselves with defending the cities borders as well as using their might to bring more settlements into the fold. Even though the city and its population are governed by laws, the rulers know all too well the principle that force is the supreme authority from which all other authorities are derived.
Put simply, Korros Tor is a city run by, and devoted to, might.

We can use Discord, sure. Just... I've had bad experiences with Discord servers before. People started posting their fanart porn and stuff like that. I'd be very happy if we could avoid shenanigans like that.
@MrSkimobile I feel like I want to give it a shot! That said, would you be comfortable with being my co-gm and handling the rolls? Just until I get the hang of it, that is!
@Red Wizard I take it there's dice going to be involved from your chat with MrSkimobile?
I think perhaps that @MrSkimobile is more qualified to answer that question. But, yes, possibly.
Copy. Are Half-Elves a thing, then?
Yessir!
Fine. how bout tiefling?
Tieflings are a-ok 🙂
What's the magic system going to be like? And is it seen with different levels of acceptance by each nation/race?
That's a good question. If we use Fate, I don't think there'll be much more of a system needed game-wise. That leaves how it works lore-wise.
I'm thinking that magic is uncommon but not rare, and that there are different kinds of practices depending on race and culture, which in turn are tolerated by varying degrees in other cultures. Most magic is low level, utility stuff. Really powerful magic is rare.
is a dragonborn ok?
No thanks. Not a big fan of those.
Gnoll Paladin
I'm sorry, but no. Gnolls are monsters. It'd be kill on sight in every civilized settlement.
@duskshine749 Half-orcs are fine! I imagine they'd face a lot of bigotry, though.
