The one who made Aerth
It was a boon given from the gods passed on to us from our ancestors. Runes, the power inside these precious stones can only be described as magic. Over generations humans learned to use Runes in worthwhile and productive ways. Compared to the savage tribals biting and chucking glowing stones at each other that is...
Runes have multiple forms and uses, but ultimately Humans use Runes for combat. To survive against monsters you need to fight like a monster... Runes became the tools used to climb the food chain and secure safety
Fire starters, Sky Flashes, Instant rain, Mana sparks...
(Fire spells, electricity spells, water spells, magic weapons,)
((Red runes, yellow runes, blue runes, teal runes etc))
(Pictured above is a woman using a chartreuse rune to form a arrow of magical energy)
(Pictured above is a man using a red rune to spray a gout of fire)
Humans learnt how to use magic over time, in the present days of Ayore runes are common knowledge.
However common knowledge is a trivial way to put it...
If a person can manage to fix dinner without burning themselves would they be called a Chef?
If someone makes a shelter are they a carpenter?
If a boy swings his father's sword in the yard is he considered a swordsman?
No.
That is to say, someone can find and use Runes... But that does not mean they are worthy of the title Rune-Master. A master of runes understands far more then a soldier throwing a red stone Whilst shouting "Hell-Fire!"
Though throughout Ayore most consider Runes as magic rocks to throw at whatever you want dead.
The Slate alliance is different. It is only because of practice and knowledge with Runes that the Alliance could stand against such overwhelming odds. The Welt empire marched across Ayore, built on the backs of slaves and cruel efficiency the Welt Looks to reach all corners of the known world.
This forced the southern tribes of Slate to banded together in a effort to combat the growing evil.
Rune-Masters all over Slate held a meeting, it was determined Slate would need to be stronger.
Rituals were held to infuse new born babies with magic. Runeborn is what the survivors would be called. With inherent power welling up inside them, the Runeborn lived somewhat normal lives until the age of eight. That is when training began, they were escorted to the city of Dunwel. To be trained in the arts of runes and combat for the hope and future of Slate.
===========================
Medieval fantasy, casual/detailed is the style I'm after.
Three paragraphs is the minimum I want for each post and twenty seven being the max amount.
Rp is suited for a few people but I'm making the cut off at five players.
I recently started this idea with a number of people who seemed very keen to play, as you can guess by this new check that the previous rp this didn't work out
So I want to mention I understand people have lives and whatnot but please don't join if you cannot post the required three paragraphs (or more) once a week. (Once or twice a week anyway)
Or at the very least let people know you are unavailable for a short period.
I'm Sick of ghosts yo, I ain't playing Scooby doo.
As alluded to above magic is in this medieval fantasy, runes are activated with a vocal command and used in various ways.
Runes are found forming naturally around Ayore and within slain monsters.
A red rune of fire could be ground into powder and left as a explosive trap.
A transparent rune of invisibility Could be broken into pieces and shared between allies, hiding each warriors weapon and dominate hand.
The plot follows the Runeborn (and friends) after their training being sent to the front lines of a approaching war. Welt has taken over 75% of Ayore and Slate is to small a country to match them with fighting strength and resources. Instead they have placed their bets on a squad of living weapons to fight protect and liberate as needed.
Magic Guerilla warfare, negotiations and trade deals, posturing and more!
