Introduction

THis Roleplay has a Brother!! A companion roleplay for the Warrior's camp is here!: roleplay/warriors-of-a-world/

Welcome Everyone, to Dalaris!

This roleplay is linked to another I've started called "Warriors of a World." In that RP, we deal with the fighters of Dalaris and their countries, and I'll be using the same map. However, since there will likely be different players in this RP, I will keep my own two countries and allow the players to choose the rest and their background.

Here is the map, I will fill it in as players and characters are defined.

And here is the information on Dalaris. Most of it comes directly from the other roleplay, because of course it is the same world and time frame, so if you'd like to reference anything from the Warrior camp within reason, feel free.

NOTE:: Please reference the characters already accepted before submitting your profile, and be sure to read the entire introduction.

THE SITUATION:

Dalaris has endured generations of war and has finally settled. This new peace, however, is tenuous. Countries and cultures were so segregated, so set against each other, that treaties and agreements have been difficult to maintain. To keep war from breaking out again, the leaders of each country have decided to send their top people from each major field: Education, Engineering/Construction, Merchant, Magic, and Military. The purpose is to promote understanding. No one in these groups are allowed to kill each other, or leave their assigned places unless an emergency requires their specialty.

Each group is sent to the central island, and a house is assigned to each group. The houses are spread apart, and it is a large island, but by no means is one group prevented from encountering another.

This roleplay is focused on the magic group. Mages, sorcerers, wizards, shaman, what have you that can perform acts of magic, all chosen from different disciplines. Unlike the warrior camp, however, I will allow multiple representatives from each country. This way, any country with multiple disciplines will be fairly represented.

Heart Island is where the groups are meeting, and the location should be primarily on the island. If however, you wish to take a flash and reveal what's going on in the home country of your character, feel free to post it separately.

Max players will have to be six (6), due to the amount of countries. I would like to narrow that down, so if anyone wants more than one country, go for it. I already have two from the Warrior RP.

For the character sheet, I would like to add a few things.

In the description, please add your character's country and magic of choice. Are they mage, wizard, sorceror, shaman? Each has their own flavor of power, and other experienced practitioners will be able to notice the differences.

For Personality, add General Demeanor ((How they walk, move, act, ect.)) Also add general hobbies and interests. You can wait until these are shown IC to add them,

Equipment includes any physical weapons or magic paraphernalia. You can limit this to things that are visible, but remember that everyone here deals with magic, so they will notice energy shields, enchanted items and the like. You don't have to say what it's enchanted to do, but please say if it has a spell on it or is innately magic.

For History, you don't need it at first, especially if this is a new character for you. However, I do expect to see information added later, as things are revealed IC and the character grows.




I would like everyone to have fun with this RP and remember that it is Character Driven. Rules are Below and should be followed.

Glorious Writing to Everyone!!

Rules

No Godmodding, of course.

I reserve the right to ban anyone from the RP due to lack of response (without good reason), harassment, and/or too many times of being reminded about the following rules:

1) Please use the location posting. It's a little button just above the reply box on the right, and it isn't hard to change the location from Dalaris to Heart Island.

2) If you have characters in separate locations, like one in Heart Island and another in their home country, please post separately.

3) I ask that if you know you will be absent for a while, explain in the OOC or with a PM, and take your character out of the action. If there is a sudden absence, like loss of internet connection, please notify us as soon as possible and/or pull your character out of the action.

4) I don't ask anyone to be college professors, but I do ask that you be literate. No text speak and please try to use a spell checker.

5) Have fun! Metagaming is encouraged and I welcome comments and suggestions.

Journie stepped onto the small dock and tied his tiny boat to one of the posts. His pack was small, but seemed heavy as he hefted it onto his shoulder. Another boat was already pushed onto the shore. He would have almost called it a canoe, long and slender, but it was too flat at the bottom and would only have fit one person comfortably. The tribal designs painted on its side seemed vaguely familiar, but it wasn't until the tall figure stepped out of the trees, staff in hand, that Journie knew why.

"Zaurillis," he said.

The old mage nodded and waited for him to walk forward before looking inland. "The others haven't arrived yet, but I sense some disturbance from across the island."

"I felt that," Journie looked as well, as if he expected to see the small blonde appear as well. "He's here, isn't he?"

"He is."

Journie looked at the taller man whose pale eyes were changing colors rapidly as he looked through the trees. Seeing with different lenses, he'd called it, and Journie waited for the colors to settle before venturing the obvious question. "Do we interfere?"

"We do not. He has a plan." Zaurillis stopped staring at the trees and turned to look directly at Journie. "I hope."

The younger mage chuckled. "I know what you mean. But it's him. He'll get it worked out." There was a smile on Journie's face; peaceful, a fondness bred from familiarity and long friendship. "He always does."

"We should go choose our rooms," Zaurillis said, but didn't move from the spot.

"You don't want to?" Journie's eyebrow rose.

"This is a bad idea," he said, then slid his eyes to Journie. "A powderkeg. All we need is a match. One insignificant remark about religion, theory or moral codes and this will go up in flames."

"I agree. Let's not be the cause of that, shall we?" Journie ignored the frown aimed at him and put his arm around the other man's back, pulling him toward the house. "I'm glad we got the rocky end of the island. Our little cat's gonna have to deal with leeches once summer really hits."

Just like that, their conversation turned to menial things and they walked casually under the late spring sky. It was early afternoon, the others would be trickling in after a while and there was still much to be done.

# Heart Island, 2012-01-14 21:04:59, as written by Loligo
Ren awoke to the sweet early afternoon breeze of the salty ocean as a gargle coursed through the body of the Leviathan (http://images.wikia.com/finalfantasy/im ... iathan.jpg) startling her slightly until calming rays from her beautiful sea-monster penetrated her mind assuring her all was well. She rose from the point on the creatures back she had been resting on and scaled the ridges on its neck to stand on the beasts head. Looking across the water she could see the island, heart island and all of its unifying glory. This was her first journey to the peace-bringing island after she rose to power as the greatest summoner of her tribe. She was curious but not overwhelmed with excitement like one might expect when serving as an ambassador for her people.

Her hawk tattoo flashed orange as her vision was enhanced and she could see the two boats on shore, how convenient, she didn't expect any welcoming committee so the best she could do would be find some people who knew what they were doing to tell her where to go and what to do.

"Levia, to shore, fast." Ren ordered in quick words and touched the fish tattoo on her neck, it glowed a deep ocean blue and the gill pattern split apart into real gills as the fish serpent dove underwater. In a zigzagged pattern the sea-monster cut through the water like a knife making it to the shore in a matter of seconds, faster than any boat.

Ren stepped off the head of the creature and patted its nose with affection before sliding a finger across her neck closing the gills and turning the giant fish into water that slipped away into the ocean.

The sand felt good on her bare feet as she wandered the shore her short thin robes drying in the sun while keeping her clean and cool. She would find someone eventually, for now she could wander.

((I do apologize. My computer crapped out on me. It's fixed now!))

By the time Ren arrived, there was already laundry hanging out to dry in the warm afternoon air and Journie was shirtless in the sunlight, pulling more damp clothes out of a laundry basket to hang up with simple clothes pins on the ordinary string line.

Zaurillis stood inside the house, all the windows open to the breeze and the doors propped open as he moved a frying pan around on the stove, calmly keeping an eye on the pots he had bubbling. He wore mage robes, but of lightweight fabric and simple design. The fabric was laceworked in places, leaving his back, forearms and some of his chest open to the air. Pale lettering in an ancient language could be seen tattooed in patterns across his back.

Ren's leviathan caused nothing more than a curious glance at the water, and Journie waved with a smile, sending up a small shower of magic sparks, just color, as greeting to the newcomer.

Re: [OOC] Magicka of Dalaris

I still can't get the map to work, are you using facebook as the link? It keeps taking me to facebook with an error message.


Re: [OOC] Magicka of Dalaris

Alrighty! The map links should be working now, and Loligo you're free to post!


Re: [OOC] Magicka of Dalaris

I have had some problems with the linkup to the maps. Hopefully those will be resolved soon. Your profile looks good, and it's fine if you don't know everything about her. Once the link works you can choose your country and I'll add its name to the map. I can redraw the lines if you want a different layout for your country.


Re: [OOC] Magicka of Dalaris

I want to join but I don't know anything about the place and the map is not showing up for me.... should I plan a character without this knowledge or could you tell me about the countries?

*edit* Wait a sec.... I've been looking around, am I supposed to come up with my own country? O.o

either way I still can't get that pic to open.... -.-'

Welcome Everyone!! Warriors of a World is on hold at the moment due to a player with account troubles. This is a companion RP concerning the magic folk of Dalaris and their encounters with one another. Please post all requests and reserves here. I check frequently.
