Well, I've been thinking..

Mulling over some of the past greatnesses of this Board....

ANd come to a conclusion, we need one of the Old Style Threads again.

Like King and Country, Or my Very First, A Bold New World....

But I want EVERYONE, and i mean EVERYONE To Join in on it...

Im not going to post anything without knowing who is joing and having an OOC THread and charicter Bios ready.

So who would Join in??? It is A Swords and Sorcery Based thing.....

With one twist.....Which you will learn when I post, But who would play regardless??

Comon And Dont be shy!!
 
I need information first my love! Snuggles you tight! Then I'll tell ya if I'm in!
 
I'll try anything once...

Count me in please, Sir Roland. As more information becomes available, I will be able to amend this post, or add another, with character information.
 
I would most enjoy a post such as that. Would you like the bio e-mailed or posted?
 
This sounds like a thread I would be glad to be a part of- if it is cool with you.
 
If you would allow my own brand of writting into your thread, I would be happy to play. More info please?
 
Roland

You've certainly sparked my interest. Tell us more!

:)
 
Not at all Moonlight....

hrmmm nice turnout, better than I expected.

Ok Dudes an Dudettes. Heres' the twist......


The Time this takes place in, is Effectively BEFORE Every other Swords and Sorcery thread ever on this board.
Before Rolando's journy, Before The King And country, Before At Sea. Before ALL of that.

Meaning the world isnt a very nice place...

Mages still look down on humans, asserting an Aristocratic Dominance over them.

Elves are still rather Aloof, But Instead of being aristocrats, are more akin to witches and Wiccan, Worshiping nature and so forth.

Humans are stuck in the middle of htis crazy world, trying to get on with life. Highly superstitous, BUt every so often there's a warrior or somthing like that who is a human....

all in all, It can be rather Chaotic at the worst of times.

But there's more.....

Currently, The world is experiancing a Crisis.

Vampires, Werewolves, Creatures of darkness have begun emerging in a large force, not threatening to take over the world, but threatening to Grasp it in terror.

Now we all are relatively aware of Vampires Romantic nature in novels, well It goes double here. They are the Deviants, The Debutonts, the Pimps so to speak. They love Sex and They Love blood and they'll do what it takes to get at it. But when Properly motivated, they can be Very Vicious and cunning as well.

Werewolves are Different, More Reclusive, not yet ready to go out and show themselves in the world. Silently sneaking into villiages at night, to steal children or Beautiful women for their tribes, to eather use as food or as a new member of the "family". Avoiding general contact with people.

To both of these things there are, of course, exceptions.

There IS no ruling council of the world, or of the nations for that matter.

At first, We will just be playing charicters, most of them will more than likely be apart (The Entire World is shapped into 2 Huge Continents, More on that little ditty later.....)
But We will need to Establish what their personal goals are before we establish a group goal.

Also, There is one more part that has gotten alot of people into tizzys.....

According to scouting reports for the Werewolves, Mages, and Elves, There have been appearances of Mythilogical crearures suddenly popping up all over the world (Any Mythology, Except the Big ass Dragons or stuff that causes super mass destruction, No one can play one, Yet. But if you want to later, tell me now too.)

Well thats mostly it, We should have alot of fun wiht this...

Im really hoping to get more people too, Although 8 is a nice round number, 10 would be more enjoyable for what I have planned.

We need a few more girls or people who play girls too. *l* *winks*

See you round!! Tell me whatcha think!
 
OOC: Mind if I join? I'm gonna go ahead and post my bio, if anyone has any problems with it just let me know k?

Name: Drusilla
Race:Vampire
Age: 100 but looks 25
Eye: Emerald Green
Hair: Long and Black
Height: 5'9
Build: Slender

Bio: Drusilla is a vampire but she is unlike any other. She is the Daughter of one of the Ruling Vampires. She however is half human. She retains the immortality and powers of the vampire but is able to walk in day light though it weakens her. She has the thirst for blood but can live without it though it leaves her weak and sick. Also she is not evil like her father, she is kind and caring but most turn away from her because of what she is.
 
Addendum to Behemoth Post 1

Just so you know, this lady can play whatever you want. :)
 
Hmmmmm sounds good Lady Siren except for one thing.

There ARE no Ruling Vampires...

As there are no Real RUlers for any of the other races, The kick of this thread Is that there are no kings or lords, no noblity (Unless you count the mages with the way they act towards humans)

She could be a Particularly Powerful Vampire, prehaps the leader of a Small Clan....that would be best *SS* Also, that is not a vampire, it is a Vampil. And I really didnt want to complicate things that far...

however with a mage she could still walk in the sunlight, Im sure One of these fine people wouldnt mind Playing your mage Partner. Maybe even a little lover thing going on...

Sure Behemoth...Heh, Well I may need you then. start out with a charicter of your own and we'll see where we can go with it later....I may have somthing special in mind. *winks*

keep on Joining up!! Spread the word peeps!
 
Character Bio

An elven druid, nature priest. Seriously mistrusts the concept of 'civilization'. Comes off as a pointy-eared Tarzan, with magic abilities. Excellent tracker, woodsman, etc.

name: Aelhar Shadowstalker, male elf
appearance: minimalist brown leather, shaggy brown hair, brown eyes... all the easier to hide in woods with, natch.
weapon: carries a stout staff of ironwood, carved with runes.
 
okie, I know I want in, I just dont know what to be yet.
and, I dont want to be alone either! lol...my gal is gonna need a little lovin, just a little lol
 
Roland, in keeping with tradition(you know, the really old one that told me to join every thread my mentor"that's you" joined) I will merrily accept your warm invitation with open arms. I will wish to play as Lokken * eh!Shush!* wait a minute... With a twist. It will be his early years, you know, before he was an Emperor, had any wife or kids, was almost a pure mage, had very little power, you know, a normal adventurer. Another twist for Lokken is that he will be Lady Siren's mage companion. This will add even more sorrow to his already heartbroken future.
 
Ok Ravenloft, IM always on ICQ...

Morgoth. *shakes your hand repeatedlt* You deserve a bloody medal.

Sound good Lady Siren?? Morgoth be with ya?? He's pretty good....

Hmmm Maybe You can be with me Mistress....*g* We'll wait an see what you're playing...

Great Idea neale! I Love it!! *GRIN*

OK, In one week from now I will reveal my charicter, That means I need Bios on here and quick, then When thats all smoothed out, I will Make the first post.

Till then My Dudes.
 
OOC:Morgoth sounds good. I would be honored to have you as my mage partner *smiles* So when will this thread start? I'm just curious and sorry about the mistakes in my bio I am new this sort of stuff thanks for the help :)
 
Well, here is my bio:

Name: Cristian
Height: 6'7"
Weight: 230lbs
Age: 25
Muscular build
Long brown hair
Race: Human

Cristian is a fighter where he lives and defends his home against every enemy with his life. Fears anything mystical and hates anything magical. Will protect anyone that he knows well with his life.


If this character needs to be changed then I will definitely do so.
 
Lilly

name : Lilly
age : forever and a day
height : 5'2"
Hair : shimmering silver
eyes : sky blue
As dragon's go, she is young, but she has a specail talent, and learns fast. She's shy, and sweet unless provoked, and then she's nothing short of deadly.
 
Roland

I'm definatly up for trying this thread out. Just give me like till tomorrow (or later today, considering the time zones difference for each person) to think one up. :)
 
Yeah all right, you twisted my arm. I will play Garret in this...
Oh before everything? Well, I will still play Garret, but this will be a diferent character.
Sabaka, a loving weapons expert (same bio as Garret, in fact same everything as Garret except his name is Sabaka).
I never said I was one for originality.
