Lost History: Lineage




History, a topic that can either interest someone or bore them to death. A subject that spans an immersive length of human history and before it. But, if you try to deviate from what is accepted as history by scholars and archeologists. Then you are laughed at, and your theories are considered pseudoarchaeology.

But while some theories might just be false, like aliens building the Great Pyramids of Giza or Bigfoot. There are ideas, objects, and even places where accepted history cannot explain or try to deny that hint at something else. A hidden or forgotten past that most have barely scraped the surface.

There are those who do try to uncover this lost history of the world. But you have not heard of them, for they operate as secret societies. These secretive groups are dedicated to uncovering this lost history. However, what they do with this lost knowledge is what divides them. Some seek power, some seek knowledge, and some seek more.

However, one thing that has been discovered by all who seek this ancient past, are the Descendants. People whose ancestors come from this lost past and whose bloodlines give them a power that is separate from magic and have unlocked the use of it. Those who are Descendants are coveted by these secret societies for not only their power but also their bloodlines gives them an unexplained connection to relics from this forgotten era.

The secret society called the Seekers is one group that seeks to uncover the truth and its connection to Descendants. As the group was founded by a Descendant. The Seekers, with its resources and Descendants. Try to discover the lost past of humanity and learn more about the past and what it means to be a Descendant.

Rules:
1. Expected to follow standard site rules
2. No godmodding or powergaming or etc...
3. No OP characters
4. A max of two characters
5. Minimum of one paragraph
6. No time or mind control powers


Overview

Hello, and welcome to the rp. So, in this RP, you will be playing as a Descendant, a normal person, or, if you wish, an unawakened Descendant. A Descendant person whose bloodline dates to an unknown ancestor from the forgotten era of human history, and gives them powers and a connection to ancient relics. An unawakened Descendant is a Descendant that has yet to awaken their bloodline's power but still has a small connection to relics. Mainly those that are related to their bloodline. Your character will be a member of the Seekers, either a new member or already apart of the order.

When it comes to your power, it can be anything but, time or mind control powers. Also it should be a hint to what your character's ancestor is. While you can decide what the ancestor is, you instead of writing it in your character sheet. You PM me your idea for an ancestor after you finish the cs. Now, what who and what ancestor is, it could be anything. A powerful spirit, an elemental, a powerful mortal, a forgotten god. Just something or someone that would leave a mark on the ancient past in some way or would be important in the ancient past and had a power or ability that could be inherited.

Now, during the course of the rp, magical non-human races and beings will be encountered, and magic is a thing in the setting though underground, and said magic is rare in modern humans. Though character wise the rp will be human only.

Also, if you wish, I would be open to side arcs that deal with a person's ancient ancestor or perhaps a more personal one, like finding a certain artifact, for example.

Now that is it and I am looking for a co-gm. If anyone wants the job, then either say something in the thread or send it to me by PMs.

Secret Societies













Andrés Moruga


It feels so weird to be home after so long. Andrés thought as he was in his room, sitting at a desk while working on his laptop. An unexpected feeling since coming home and readjusting to island life. He would realize that he missed some aspects of island life, such as the cool ocean air, beautiful nature, and, more importantly, no traffic.

Still, things have changed since leaving for the mainland, and Andrés is just glad that he has a place to stay and can still do his job while he is here. The perks of being a comic book artist. He just needs a laptop and his drawing tools, and he is good. Though Andrés has yet to show his family, the comics he is working on and have helped to earn him a living. He knows his family is not keen on comic books like he is and is not sure how they would view it. Andrés knows how his father would feel, however.

But, after some time at work, Andrés saved his work and closed his laptop. He did a long stretch as he finished his work for the day and now thought of what to do next. Both his mother and sister were out of the house at the moment, and that left him with the house to himself. He looked at his room, which was spacious, and he had to share it with his sister. Andrés did not have a problem with that, but it reminded him of the state of the family.

Then he thought about it and remembered how, despite being on the island for some time. He had not really explored it since coming back and see what was new and what was still around. The day was still young, and he might as well have seen the Isles while he was staying here. Maybe he will see if the Hidden Retreat Cafe is still as good as he remembered, given how much his mother cared for it.

So Andrés decided that he had enough of the house for today, and it was time to see the island. He would depart the house and venture out. Maybe he will see an old face or some old friends that are still on the Isles, who knows? But it is time to get reacquainted.
Thanks for the heads up, and I have finally posted.
Nakai


Nakai had at this point, had remained silent so far. But his attention was there, and his eyes and ears dutifully watched and listened to what was happening. To think they were going to starve because of three men, though if they ate that much food, then their appetite must be large. Still, he agreed to the words of Walking-Lion. Perhaps if they send parties forward to new places then they may have a chance to regain what precious food they have lost to these three men.

But now he has a choice, does he join the young of the tribe and hunt down these thieves? Nakai is a shaman, not a warrior, and he knows this well, but he does know how to defend himself. Still, is it his responsibility as a shaman to hunt down the thieves and bring them to justice or try and find new sources of food? It is a tough choice he has, and after thinking about it, Nakai had made his choice.

Speaking with calm as he spoke up, "I will go with the hunters and explore new lands in the hope they have food. Either fish or game or crop. I will ask the spirits to guide us in this task."
Okay, good to know. I will get a post up this week.
Sure, this could be fun.
Tatsui Enatsu


So this is Hueco Mundo, Tatsui thought as he looked around from his place with the group and in the dome. His first mission in this place, and it is clear that they should not spend any more time here than they have to. If the harsh air was an indicator but they should not rush things because the last thing he wants is to be ambushed by Hollows because they are rushing and made their presence known to the Hollows.

Still, Tatsui knows the virtue of being patient after years on the street, and if they want to remain undetected by the Hollows then silence and caution are to be respected.

The only thing Tatsui wished for right now was that he could have met with his teammates before the mission. He missed that chance and is now with strangers, but that can be remedied later, and he can see how they fight at least. However, he can feel Ishi telling him not to think about this and to focus on the mission and he knew she was right.

Now he thought about where to go, going upstairs and dealing with what was up there or going ahead and seeing what this dormant one was about. He thought for a time, the one upstairs seemed occupied while the dormant one is not, and he figured that going to the dormant one would be best since they could surprised it and deal with it now and not later. He does not want it showing up if they go upstairs.

So, in a hushed tone to the group, Tatsui spoke. "I say we go forward and deal with the dormant one."
