Introduction
Though the neighboring nation of Larsonia is peaceful and prosperous, a shadow has always troubled the peoples' hearts--the Marsh is always looming off on the horizon. In Larsonian bedtime stories, the boogeyman is not hiding beneath children’s' beds or in their closets, but simply waiting out in the open a few miles away.
Yet for all its frightfulness, the Marsh continues to attract a few people: the adventurous, the foolhardy, and the desperate. Legend has it that Hail Angael, ancient ruler of the world, retreated into the Deep Marsh before dieing, taking with him his great treasure horde. Anyone who can find the treasure of Hail Angael and bring it back will be the richest person in the entire Outer Lands.
Is that legend true? For now, no-one can say for sure. That does not keep a few brave souls from looking.
------
All right y'all, this roleplay is about us looking for lost treasure in a haunted marsh. The setting is a loosely-organized fantasy world called the Outer Lands. As I have not developed much of anything beyond the Deep Marsh and Larsonia, feel free to bring in any race, creatures, or cultures from outside. However, I will be in control of the Marsh and the things creeping within it.
Technology in the Outer Lands is similar to that of the mid-1800's in our world, with some anachronisms here and there.
True magic is rare, subtle, and powerful. If you want your character to be a magic-user, PM me and I'll explain the "rules."
If you have any questions, please ask.

Yes.
[OOC] The Deep Marsh
It is said that the Deep Marsh was there long before humans came into the world, and that it will remain long after that race has died and been forgotten. Beneath the thick canopy, time moves slowly and memories of the primordial past are not forgotten. It is a vast, treacherous place, and none know what lies beyond it, for none have ever crossed all the way through it.
