Dragon Age: Vanguards of the Inquisition
Hello RPNation! I'll cut straight to the point: I'm Lexielai, and I've been dying to play a good Dragon Age RP.When none popped up, I decided to take matters into my own hands and make my own. If you're not familiar with the franchise, it is a series of RPGs developed by the game company Bioware, now in it's third iteration: Inquisition. Unfortunately the world is far too vast for me to explain here, so I'll mainly be aiming for the demographic of people who have played the game before. But if you're really interested, feel free to browse the wiki or site here!
Anyways, the result is a little pet project I've been thinking about for a while. I'm mainly looking for 3-6 talented writers to play a small, elite squad of ragtag individuals within the newly-formed Inquisition (with the story beginning shortly after the Inquisition's formation). If you're interested--which of course you are!--I've written a small introductory segment to the premise below.
“The Inquisition. An order dedicated to the restoration of peace and order in times of strife. In the wake of the First Blight they arose to halt the lawless chaos gripping Thedas by its throat; and when their duty was done, they returned to their homes and laid their swords down. A millennium has passed since, and it is now the year 9:41 Dragon. The outcome of the disastrous conclave between the rebel Mages and the Chantry has left gruesome scars in the hearts of the people. In its aftermath, full-scale conflict has arisen across Thedas once more, and a deep wound remains in the heavens as a reminder of the evils of man.
The Breach, as it’s called, is a dimensional portal ripped into the skies of Thedas above the Temple of Sacred Ashes. It leads into the Fade, the realm of spirits and demons, and a mysterious world that defies contemporary knowledge and the laws of physics. Its expansion was only halted by the heroic deeds of the Herald of Andraste, but the damage was already done. Fade portals across Orlais and Ferelden have begun unleashing hordes of demons upon the unprepared masses, and there seems to be all too few answers to stop them. Between this demon threat and a vicious war pitting rebel Mages against Templars, the rampant chaos spreading throughout Thedas has shattered the fragile peace born following the end of the Fifth Blight.
In a time of great discord, an old order has arisen to draw their swords once more and put an end to the chaos. The Inquisition has been revived under the leadership of the infamous Herald of Andraste. Many flock to this beacon of hope, to seek shelter under its protective arm or to fight as one of its weapons for peace. But the Inquisition is young; it is not yet ready to challenge the numerous threats splitting the world apart. It needs a protector of its own. A stalwart defender dispatched to resolve problems before they can take the Inquisition out. Under the watchful eye of the former Left Hand of the Divine, these defenders have been found.
For now, they are a ragtag group of nobodies—aspiring adventurers, petty criminals, simple farmers and more. But they have all been united in pursuit of their one cause: to be the heroes unknown, the shadowy agents whose stories may remain forever in the dark. They may not be much now, but they will rise far above and beyond who they were before. They must, if they are to survive the firestorm to come.
They are the Vanguards of the Inquisition. This, is their tale."
If you're interested in the idea, definitely feel free to reply to this thread or send me a PM! If I acquire enough interest, I'll start looking into getting the actual thing started. But until then, au revoir!
