Reflections of the Sword

Reflections of the Sword

0 INK

To fight or not to fight...that is the question.

766 readers have visited Reflections of the Sword since spirit_is_shining created it.

Introduction

This is a Low Fantasy - Medieval setting - 2 to 10 player - 1 to 2 GMs - story. Please apply for Co-GM! Thank you! :)

Please join my character Anna Frost as she continues her journey and as I continue developing her character. :)

I have made a map of this fantasy world:

Image

Feel free to add into the setting and build the world. I have left cities and landmarks nameless so we may as a party, figure out what we will name these places.

Story thus far...

We are a group of wanderers who team up together for our own reasons.... Monsters roam this world and can be found in almost any climate. Why are there monsters? It's just the way the world was made. "Monster" is just another word for creature, the only difference is monster comes from human feelings of terror and being frightened of the unknown. So there are good and bad creatures. It all depends on what their desires, morals, ethics, and motives are.

Within every part of this map I have made some history behind the landscapes.

Your player will have a story and motive(s) behind why they join the party. Please tell me what your character is about and why they are joining the party. It's basically anything goes, but your character must reside within the map's locations.

The World of Hara

From the mines of Norfolk to the floating city Hari to the underwater metropolis Ceta, to the hills of Hisdale, forest Demure, Mountainous Zeid, Black Oasis, Treasure lake, Said Islands, Cirature Pininsula, and other landmarks within the story.... (names can be changed. This is just to give some idea to everybody what kind of roleplay settings the rp will take place in)

History of places, races, factions and how they interact with each other.

Mines of Norfolk:

Mines of Norfolk was worked on 200 years ago but had stopped and become an abandoned mine. It is said a tragic disaster occurred, making the mine haunted, as well as reported monsters lurk within the mine and cavernous areas which is why the finishing of the mine has been delayed. Every once in a while a team of civilians and brave souls will continue to work the mine but for now it seems in vain.

Tishian Desert:

Tishian Desert spans for miles and miles and is filled with vast sand. There is life in this desert, and certain kinds of creatures lurk the area who like the heat or can have adapted to this climate. This desert is known for having enormous creatures, and a journey through this desert can take months. There is no map of this desert as humans have yet to map out exact locations except Black Oasis... It is hard to see through the desert for it is very windy and sand storms are frequent.

Black Oasis is the only part of the desert that has flourishing life and beautiful vegetation. Palm trees are here, coconuts, and all sorts of critters reside here. Small towns have formed in this location. They have everything from markets to inns, to selling specially made armor and weapons made particularly only in this region.

....


More to be revealed in the roleplay!!! I will write more about the places in the ooc. For now, join away if interested! Thank you!

Re: Reflections of the Sword

HELLO NEW PLAYeRS~~~!!! ***UPDATE 05/16/2015*****

I revamped and redid this roleplay it's open again so feel free to ask any questions or concerns you may have~!

LET's HAVE FUN! :)

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I had vanished due to RL issues and the fact this died a tragic untimely death before it could even begin. I can't promise rapid replies every thirty seconds throughout the day. I work overnights and have three nights off in which I can post frequently.

If this is acceptable I would be interested in returning as Anoka if I am approved. I hope that this roleplay returns to the life you had envisioned (even if you do not need Anoka in it.)

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Oh my goodness, this roleplay is so old. I am breathing life back into this roleplay! Please feel free to join in with your characters, I will approve or disapprove them.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I'm so sorry everyone, I was on vacation. If anyone still wants to roleplay ,we can.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I didn't know that. i hope that is all that it is. So I shall cling to the hope that this has not died.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I'm still here, and wondering the same thing. =/ A lot of colleges are having their finals right around now, so that could be a cause.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Where did everyone go? Did people get busy? Is the new writer making an appearance? I was interested to see how the new character was going to be placed in.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Hope my post doesn't confuse anybody.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Yes, the bears paid no attention to the characters. I used them only as a distraction for Anoka to let Kin catch up. I suppose I should have just kept on walking to the sanctuary and had avoided all the confusion. Sorry. I will not add things like that.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

As I understand, the bears never paid attention to Kin or Anoka at all. Kin just freaked out and wanted to get away since she thought they were monsters. In the end, the bears just wandered away. xD

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I'm so sorry, I most likely read it wrong... XD Oh my goodness.

I'll change it.

----

Wait a minute, I'm confused. How did you two lose the bears?

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Hmm, I have some problems with your post shining.

I wrote that the bears were basically out of the clearing when Kin walked through. Thus they could pass safely by without problems from the mamma bear and her little cubs.

Anoka put the food away. It was only a trail bar which would cause little or no interest from the bear.

Anoka wasn't running or anything in my post. So I am confused that my character is suddenly running when I had him standing nearby at the end.

So, I don't know if I was just unclear about these points. If I am to hard to understand (I have had that problem with others before it makes sense to me) I will leave to avoid confusion in the future if it would be easier for the group. Though I don't want to. But it is up to the gm. Let me know what you want me to do.

I'll wait for the new person to put up intro. Unless we are going to form a new posting order. Let me know.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Nice to meet you Oddball! Welcome to the group! :)

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Hmm, should I post or keep the posting order? I can get Anoka there no problem if they are indeed that close as Elite stated. I don't want to step on toes and get into trouble with the GM. So I will post and if it is wrong I will delete.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Graphic novel? Awesome. Let me know if you post it online or get it published; I'd love to read it. :D

I tried to get us going in my reply, so hopefully we'll be at the sanctuary by Yolo's next post (though that's assuming that they're fairly close :P).

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I posted, then had to edit. LOL woot hair brain moment. The nun was not what I was expecting to be the NPC. But that is the cool thing about this form of writing. The other writers tend to throw in twists I hadn't thought of.

So, I sort of stopped with his talking to the priestess. I thought it rude to drag her to the sanctuary without your impute. So I am not sure how to handle the rest of the traveling to the meeting place. In my head they are almost there, just a half days journey up the river. Hehe.

A graphic novel? Wow, that is intense. I hope that turns out well for you.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Alright I posted. I'm excited for the story! XD I plan to make this story into a graphic novel one shot...

Anywho, I introduced an NPC and hope it doesn't confuse anyone.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

There was no misunderstanding of what she was doing. I enjoyed reading the post. Well done. So now I wait until Spirit has her post and I will continue with my long and tiring ramblings. lol I really liked the overreaction. It will be an interesting to see that play out in the rest of the story.

Re: Reflections of the Sword

Posted my reply. :D And in case it's hard to tell, Kin's following Anoka. She just has a tendency to... overreact. xD

Re: Reflections of the Sword

I'll try to keep it open for anyone to merge into the scene or what have you. I'll see what I can do. Hope you are not sorely disappointed.
