Jor'Mok • Re

Lord of Sky and Storm

Jor [Jordan] • Mok [Mockery] • Re [Ray]

Aspect

Master of Wind
Master of Clouds
Master of Lightning

Personality

Jor'Mok • Re is a chaotic god, and his will changes with the winds. He may in a moment of anger destroy a coast or send a cyclone at a desert city. He may unearth ancient ruins just as easily as he buries them. Entire civilizations may disappear overnight due to a single destroyed altar. His law is unclear and forever changing. He carries the breath of the world in his palm, and may extinguish it with a simple blow.

Avatars

His avatar is as malleable as his will. It may be humanoid one hour and then take the form of a sky-wolf at the next gust of wind. Lightning may surge from his eyes or it may be carried in an incorporeal trident. He may carry the breath of creation in his palm or in his mind. The force of storms may brew in his maw or his blade.

Thanks for the welcome, @UltikanaRe and @Mara Velrose!

Y'know, it's hard to sit down and just explain my world in a cohesive few sentences. I guess I'd have to say it's a modern world, a version of our own (most of the same countries, music, stores, some different ones) - a kind of alternate timeline of our own modern life, Changed in the past and present by the presence of the Supernatural. Basically me and my friends liked to write together, but the only roleplays available to join were the typical Vampire ones and School ones - doesn't seem to be the case here, but on the site we frequented, those were your two options (and then the secret third option: Vampire School roleplays...). We usually joined into the ones we figured were okay and did what we did, writing it as if it were in our own world, realistically with consequences and a wider world and all that. Enough of those separate Vampire and School roleplays shared crossovers with each other, and soon enough, a combined fictional universe was born: The Falling World. There have been dozens and dozens of Roleplays in the Falling World sense then - only a few of them actually making it to the end of their stories, some going on endlessly - and today it's a rich tapestry of Cities, factions, pre-existing characters, dynamics, history and beings. Blaugh, that's a lot to spit out...

Essentially we just sat down and wondered what it would be like if Vampires and Werewolves and all that actually existed in our world. Well, we figured it wouldn't be long before some official or intrepid reporter would announce it to the world, and so the better question followed - What would it be like if creatures like that tried to join mainstream society? What we wound up with is Civil Rights campaigns, Vampire sitcom characters, Blood drives for donations to Vampires instead of Hospitals and a thriving bloodbag delivery industry; Governments would employ superpowered people as special agents while Werewolves call in sick to work because of the full moon. A tentative trade deal is reached with the fairy world, and fairy dust is becoming a major import, while at one point an angry mob of mermaid-like fish creatures rise out of the rivers and attack a city in retaliation for pollution and other offenses. In between, a big, messy world trying to catch up starts to take shape, informed by the secret wars and grudges that the previously clandestine supernatural world still fight out right among us. Since the supernatural has been around for centuries at least, the past is significantly changed by their presence as well, resulting in a map of the US and the world that looks very different, along with the history books. The core notion of the place, though, is that No Matter what kind of being, supernatural or otherwise, a person is, they are still just that: A Person. Basically, the Falling World is a long, long answer to the theoretical situation of 'What if all that was real?' So yeah, that's my world. The roleplay I mentioned that's currently active is about a training ground; in a world where the supernatural is a mostly accepted part of society, this is a place where people who have tried every other school, nonprofit and scam and failed to try to make something of themselves and their abilities. Part a secret institution of knowledge and part a very, very old wise lady's island home, this is a place for people to learn not only to master their powers but themselves. Aaaand all the other writers but me and my friend bailed on that so we're looking for some new students! So that's a long answer to a simple question, hope I said something worth hearing.

And Mara - if you've never done online roleplay, what medium has Your fictional universe been told through? How HAVE you been roleplaying? I always love hearing about new methods to do what I enjoy.@spearofhope

Very interesting. Do you have a map? I always love seeing the cartography behind the story.
