Introduction
Earth, 1934 At about this time, the initial war between the Lycans began as a simple discussion gone wring within the Lycanian law system. Soon this disagreement turned from a small argument to radio broadcasts. These broadcasts subsequently were transferred over to Lycanian television, and soon the entire world was involved within the war.
Earth, 1992 The war hit a temporary standstill...that was, until a Lycan army bombed a hidden lair, turning what had been a sixty-two year long cold war into a physical war.
Earth, 2010 The war peaked, as a young recruit and several other innocent trainees were killed when a bomber attacked a training center. Fifty five teachers, instructors, and guards were killed, ten injured. Three hundred students were killed, five hundred injured.
Earth, 2053 The Revolts began losing. After a failed attempt to capture an opposing fort and losing an entire squadron of over three hundred thousand, the leader was assassinated and replaced by a strange man rumored to be two-thirds robot, one-third human. The world came to know him only as The Master.
Earth, 2054 After debate that a man who had his soul preserved for 500 years within a plastic orb couldn't manage an army, the leader made his name known with what became widely known as the Maddox Massacre. Christmas 2054, Lucien Maddox (The Master) dropped an small bomb on a city in Ireland, wiping out almost 75% of the population in that area. Doubts about The Master's power quickly died off.

The War
As stated, it started back in 1992, and is still going strong in 2550. By now, the Lycan war has become a bloodbath, and it's reached the point where the war has poured out from the hidden battlegrounds it once took place in to human streets. Humans have taken notice, and soon they rounded up a military division in every country across the globe dedicated solely to killing Lycans. However, the human action has done nothing more but drag them into a war they never should have been in...
The Sides
The Revolts: The Revolts believe that Lycans are the sole leaders of the world and are constantly terrorizing humans. They believe that humans are basically lunch meat and also have the grotesque habit of spearing human heads on poles outside camps while gorging on human remains. No, they're not from Twilight. They have the advantage of being the current dominant party, with bases dotted across the globe and the most advanced weapons available in mass quantities on demand. Base hidden beneath Paris, France.
The Rebels: The Rebels are the side which believe that Lycans and humans are both equal, and most are supporters of human rights...literally. Most of the Lycans on this side believe in the old legend that when the planet was created and humans were placed on it, Lycans came with them to protect the world. However, some do not and only join because they support humans. They have the upper hand when it comes to strategic aspects of war and making due with the few, normally low-tech weapons on hand. Base hidden in area accessible only with use of Lycan magic on Mount Everest.
The Humans: They're the more simple side. They were dragged into war accidentally, and now find themselves trying desperately to catch up. While most of this force work underground and simply run about sniping Lycans of both sides, some work on the battlefields and/or as spies. They have the upper hand when it comes to getting weapons, though not the most high tech, most of their weapons come in massive quantities. Base located in Quebec, Canada.

DemiKara wrote:I certainly like the idea, and you have the history very well written out, along with a clear and distinct villain. I believe it is too early in the role-play just yet to accurately judge it, but it seems to have a bright (war torn) future ahead of it. I'm a little iffy about the plot, as it seems player driven in nature, but I think that it will be brilliant nonetheless. The world you have created here is very well detailed and drawn. I do like the addition of stylized quotes to give a feel to the background of the story int he introduction.
Tiko wrote:It is far too early to really see where this might lead for sure but from what I have seen so far, it seems to be a very well thought out roleplay. The GM has taken the time to really draw up the situation and present the setting and story (both present and historical) in an intriguing light. It's not too overwritten but still rather eye catching. The introduction also displays a certain touch of humor while not detracting from the general organization and well written aspect of it. It is both presentable and good natured all in one. I would have to say that as long as the GM gives as much care and attention to the roleplay as the introduction, that this roleplay has a bright future ahead of it.
Kilgannon wrote:I really like where you were going with this. You obviously have this all well thought out before starting it off and I like how you set up the history for it. Like the others said, I'm not sure where this one will go at this point but I really have high hopes for this role play and hope it all works out the way your thought it would. Great job so far, keep doing what your doing.

"If you are not Lycan, then you shouldn't be here. Every species has their own dwellings. And it was the scent of a lycan that I came across, but since you said so yourself you are not one of us. It only leads to more questions which I wont be asking. But again since you are not lycan I'm a bit baffled as to how you managed to get in here. I'm almost positive that someone would have informed the rest of us of your presence."
Alina was growing irritable by the second, it was true she could not place his scent, something she spurned since she'd not been exposed to any other creatures besides other lycans and humans.
She'd heard that there were other creatures but never came across one so judging and knowing their scent was foreign to her. This wasn't sitting well, and Alina chose to step back at that second and excuse herself. "If you need anything else just call" With that she picked up a few beer bottles and carried them from around the bar counter and over to the table that had just filled up with a group of guys. Setting a bottle in front of each one she asked if there was anything else she could get for them.
After that Alina made herself busy cleaning up tables that were left by occupants who'd finished their drinking binge and left a mess. She didn't know how to act now with Warren, he had the attitude of a lycan, but apparently wasn't one. Now she just wished the night would end so she could go back to her dwellings. But alas another few people poured in, this was the time when everyone wanted something to numb their bodies from the pain of rough training, something to settle their minds and cool the beast within.

"Alright, let us see what is going one" he said, tuning in on the TVs as he put the final touches onto a special project he was working on. This was soon followed by a "You got mail" alert on the computer. "Alright lets see......This is excellent, now perhaps we can get a little bit closer to ending this war" he noted as he saved the Email from his human contact to the computer and 3 discs. Then a TV news bulletin came up. "This is Kate, we have just seen another bombing on the Human military Airport of New York City. How they are managing to pull off all these attacks is still a mystery. "maybe it is because somewhere inside the city they have a hideout so they don't need to go by the perimeter" he said, somewhat annoyed when the death tole was in the hundreds "I cant let them keep it up".

Zamek looked around, returning to the cafe. Everything was still in one piece, so that means that no fight happened. At least not yet. Zamek went to the counter and asked for glass of sprite. He wasn't really in the mood, and rarely ever is, for liquor. He looked to see both Alina and that other guy here. I kept my magnum ready, just in case. But i soon fastened it. "If hes not Revolt, he is no enemy of mine" Zamek thought. He was still a bit tense, with the stranger here. "i swear i think he knows what im thinking" Zamek noted in his head.
"So Zamek, any news on the war?" Alina asked. "Another New York bombing, oh, and a revolt base was over run by humans. Good for them." i replied, taking a sip of my sprite. "oh, and i think somewhere in new york city itself they have a base of operations." i also noted. "Hmmm, makes sense, and your project?" she also asked. "The Raven is almost done, im putting the final touches on now, i might have it ready in like a week for field tests" i replied, finishing up my sprite.

The setting changes from Montage Cafe to The Eroberung Caf??
after he received said drink. After a few moments of sipping at the bottle of what he guessed (by taste) was Bud Lite, he produced a guitar from the case which hung from the handle of his chair."Thanks"
As he began strumming out the tune of Yes It Is by The Beatles, he observed his surroundings. Odd, he thought silently to himself. I'd have thought that there's be slightly more people than this by this time of the day... he contemplated as he persisted to strum away on the battered instrument.
