@ Max I don't see a problem at all with that max just make sure it's for the back-story for your character, or is it a npc that you want to control throughout the Rp?

Thanks for the like Guys and Gals!

Well.........that was a long history........

I hope I was ok in creating a racial subset......... I had developed part of the char and part of the lore for a different RP that never went through......

Oh, and if you feel that more Lifebringer lore is necessary I have more material. (saved and in my head)

That's Fine Max, also try not to over use your minions, I don't mind the idea just make sure when you control them they aren't too overpowered. The should be potentially easy to kill and at most hold off a Non-Ranged character by two posts. I'm sure you already have Knowledge of this, However can never be too sure. :)

I'm Excited!

Yo Lzo, when I was reading Xain's character sheet and got confused at the mention of stuff like arcades, video games, and a beeping noise synomous with a heartrate moniter. I had assumed the setting was a sort of mideval fantasy, with the most advanced tech being something like gunpowder. If that not the case?

The Setting is Medieval fantasy, however with magic in the mix there are endless possibilities. Expand your mind and think of it this way. The world is still stuck in the age of swords, cloth, armor, and the finest blacksmiths. Although, most of the world see's culture as a huge asset thanks to the Black City, being the beacon of hope and even prior to surviving the world utilizes magic to form modern like things such as, Siren's, Arcades, and most of all medical equipment due to the Plague, progression in it's Magical capabilities to save Human and other races alike have caused several breakthroughs. As far as entertainment, imagine a world with jesters for the duke, but video games for the kids fueled by magic. If it seems like a stretch without explaining it in the intro I'll be more then happy to post this in there to clarify a little mix up. :)

How do these advancements effect the economic structure of the land, or more specifically the Black City?

For example, "video games for the kids" makes me think that they are not so much of an oddity in the society, which is reinforced by the assertion that there are arcades. With a prevalence of that level of entertainment (especially available to children) it makes me think that there are a large number of families with vast amounts of disposable income, the tell tale sign of a quite large middle class (at least within the Black City).

These things are kinda confusing to me because I generally associate a Medieval fantasy setting where melee weapons are the norm with one akin to a setting where there are the social structure is basically that of nobles, who have so much money they can do basically anything they want without having to work, and peasants, who have to work every single day just to pay for the bare necessities. With very little room for an in-between.


I also noticed a reference to schools not only in the Black City but in Xain's original home. Then after his arrival in the Black City he seems to attend college, which makes me wonder as to is economic situation. How is he affording an education without a family to back him?



Ug, what I mean is that I really don't seem to have a grasp on the setting.....or maybe I thought I did and now I find out that I was wrong. Like, do they still use calligraphy or do they have typewriters? Or heck, do they have some sort of magi-tech computer systems? Is there a public school system? Are candles/lamps more or less common than magical lighting?

Sorry for all the questions.......I just really feel like I don't have a grasp on the setting........

Before the Medieval times Greek and Roman philosophers studied a great many things in what could be considered modern day colleges. Schools or universities no matter what time period unless it is a brand new planet or right after something that destroyed all of civilizations are logical and practical. I too see the dilemma when it comes to modern=ish advances such as arcades etc... but as far as the character history for Xain, how is the economic situation relevant to how you will proceed to roleplay? The fact that he went to a university of sorts is the focal point not how he obtained the currency over time to achieve this. The Greek and Roman civilizations came before the Renaissance which is usually the setting used when people rp in Medieval times, and many Greeks had free access to much of the critical learning that took play in the early years of A.D. Though some of the technological questions are understandable and even I am a little confused about them; the schools, and Xain's economical history do not seem like too much of a stretch for the character and the times.

Re: [OOC] Black Mist Plague

I guess I was under the impression that the society was more like one where only a very very small portion of the population were educated enough to even read or write. With Xain's education starting so early and outside the family household I believed that information about his economic situation might have shed some light on what it took to get an education like that in the society. Especially after his arrival in the Black City, because at that time it seems to me that he would be in the position of a "refugee" and has lost everything he owns along with his family.

I dunno, I guess that because I don't see anything in his profile identifying him as special (like being from a noble or at least well off family) for his education I therefore assumed it was the norm. Which contrasts with the view I have of a any non-modern/future setting, in which I consider education a luxury afforded only to the wealthy and powerful.

As far as the arcades go.....I have a hard time picturing a fishmonger on one street and a arcade on another >.< but that's my own fault
Perhaps I just need not stop worrying so much......
