Of Gold and Grey

Of Gold and Grey

a part of “Of Gold and Grey”, a fictional universe by Xenocartographer.

Cal-Dera-Ban, a world home to two different and distrustful species. Attempts to bridge the gap have been made before, but the assassination of diplomats threatens to make this one's failure catastrophic. Far too much now hangs in the balance.

Of Gold and Grey

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Xenocartographer on Wed Mar 19, 2014 5:38 pm

Well, here's to hoping I haven't screwed up my first attempt at running an RP here. Wish me luck (and join!) please!

(If you're concerned about the lack of detail so far, don't be. That's more to do with the fact that our group composition will strongly influence the beginning, and also that I prefer to leave nonessential parts of the setting open-ended.)

I love this. :) I'll do a Bani. (It seems more along the lines of my usual and best characters than the Caleth.)

Ah nice! *waves excitedly* Person! Yes! Good! Hi! I was worried I did everything wrong ever and no one would join. Also I kind of think the Bani are going to be the more popular race, heh...

I realize I neglected to put a character template, so I'll do that now. You're welcome to change or ignore it as you see fit though!

I would be very interested in doing this. I would really be up for being the Bani Princess if at all possible. Maybe one of the paid off assassins who failed and is now on the run after failing, she finds the group. I like option two better if you would be okay with that. :)

Assassin who later joins up with the group? Sure, that works! It could be a little tricky to make believable, but not unworkably so. So go ahead and submit a character sheet! EDIT: Which race were you thinking of, if I may ask?

(You're also welcome to be the princess, but I kind of had my eye on that slot because being one of the princesses will help me as narrator, and the Bani are probably the trickier of the two races to play and I created them so I know them best. Basically, if someone wants to use that slot, they're welcome to, but if they'd be open to something else it'd be appreciated. I don't want to step on anyone's toes!)

Also, added the Caleth territory as a place. The Bani territory is coming next, then some specific places within each. The territory descriptions double as more in-depth descriptions of the races, so please read them!

EDIT: ...Where will I see if someone submits a character? I'm actually not sure and feel dumb now.

Character section.

Also, I'll do the assassin thing and you can have the princess if nobody else wants her. :)

Got it, thanks! I look forward to seeing your characters. :) I'll probs be asleep before either of you submit them, though.

EDIT: Descriptions of both races available in the Places section. Which isn't really a sensible place for them, but there isn't really a sensible place and it's the least weird.

Mind if I make a character? I'm thinking he'll be a Caleth soldier. It'll be the first time I play as a dude, though, so I hope he'll be believable.

I'm sorry but it'll take me longer to submit the character. Hopefully I'll get it in before the weekend. :)

@Wildsky: Why would I mind? Submit away, yo!

@above: Sure, is fine. Which race was your assassin going to be, btw?

We could start this with four, but I think it'd be better to have at least five. That way it's the two princesses and then three others, which seems a good mix to me. Anyone else have an opinion on the subject though?

Whatever you prefer/can find. :) I'm not picky!

Makenna's character is up and approved. (Though she is missing a verb in her description-y quote thing! *nudge nudge* )

"I'm sick of this prison-life I lead. I just want to be unchained." You forgot the 'to be' part.
