Nocturnal Passions
Records of War​

This is a roleplaying game that takes place in the medieval world of Solaris. The story is about the relationships that develop between the citizens of the United Kingdom of Ahlissa as war tears across the continent of Cyrilia.

Map of Cyrilia

The United Kingdom is made up of four smaller nations: Rel Astra, Medegia, Sunndi, and Onnwal. Each province is policed by a regent, but the entire Kingdom is controlled by the High Council, which is situated in Kalstrand along with the King. Kalstrand is the Kingdom's capital.

Map of Kalstrand

The four other major holdings in the Kingdom are:

Rel Astra City: The main seaport for the Kingdom. (Map)
North Jalpa: A martial arts training facility, where every Knight of Ahlissa must train before being accepted into the Knighthood. (Map)
South Jalpa: A city dedicated to the mastery of magic in all its forms. (Map)
Irongate: A desert stronghold that serves as a back-up base of operations. (Map)

All of the Kingdom's cities and holdings have churches, temples, or chapels dedicated to the Dragon God Draconus. Characters can be married in any of these holy dwellings.

The land had been peaceful since the time of King Jeriako, over two hundred years ago. But that all changed about three years ago, when the Empire of Iuz decided all its neighbors were enemies. Emperor Jorell was convinced they were conspiring against him, and declared war on Furyondy, Urnst, Tenh, and Nyrond. War broke out all over as other kingdoms came to the aid of the falling armies and were sucked into the battle. It seemed the Imperial Troopers were too great to be stopped, though. Jorell had also incorporated the help of orcs, goblins, and kobolds from the forests, swamps and caves of the land.

The current ruler of Ahlissa, King Tristan, has agreed to help in what has come to be known as the Cyrilian War. This game will have two separate threads: The one where people of Kalstrand will roleplay out their relations, and one for those that want to go fight in the war, but they'd be away from Ahlissa. The two threads are Chronicles of Love and Records of War. Either start in Kalstrand and thengo to war after a while, or start on the batllefield right away. General Marcus will be leading a unit into war in a few weeks, so you can alwaus enjoy Kalstrand till that time.

If living in Kalstrand, you can be in any number of professions, but here are some good ideas:

Adventurer, Alchemist, Archer, Armorsmith, Armsman, Artificer, Assassin, Axeman, Bandit, Barbarian, Barber, Bard, Berserker, Blacksmith, Bombadier, Bowyer, Brawler, Brewer, Cabalist, Calligrapher, Cavalier, Cleric, Commoner, Conjurer, Crafter, Crossbowman, Dark Paladin, Demiurge, Diabolist, Druid, Duelist, Empyreal, Enchanter, Engineer, Etherialist, Explorer, Fletcher, Friar, Geomancer, Gladiator, Healer, Herbalist, Highlander, Hunter, Huntsman, Illusionist, Infernalist, Jeweler, Linguist, Lumberjack, Mage, Magician, Marksman, Mercenary, Merchant, Miner, Minstrel, Monk, Muse, Mystic, Necromancer, Outlaw, Paladin, Peasant, Performer, Philosopher, Pikeman, Poet, Prestidigitator, Pugilist, Ranger, Rogue, Sage, Scholar, Scoundrel, Scout, Scribe, Seer, Shaman, Skald, Slinger, Soldier, Sorcerer, Squire, Summoner, Swashbuckler, Sycophant, Tailor, Templar, Thaumaturgist, Theurge, Thief, Tinker, Troubadour, Viking, Vintner, Warden, Warrior, Weaponsmith, Wizard, Woodsman, Zealot, just to name a few.

As far as races in the land go, most of the population is made up of humans, elves, dwarves, and gnomes. For the sake of this game, all races age the same, save for the ancient High Elves who left the land centuries ago.
