• Lore/Background

The world is currently in its 3rd Age, The Dark Lord a corrupted Elf known as Malador has been defeated...but at a great cost. The Great Archadian Alliance has collapsed in the wake of the massive strain the war placed on its resources and infrastructure dividing the world once again and creating many smaller kingdoms, duchies, republics, tribes and self proclaimed empires. In this world one can find High Elves, Dark Elves, Gnomes, Orcs, Men and Goblins. Lesser beings include Dragons, Trolls, Giants, Centaurs, Griffins and much more. You will determine the fate of the 3rd Age as well as that of 4th.

Could i have a nation of giants? i know that's pretty over powered on its own but could it be a really small empire with a bunch of weaknesses? like not really being able to travel over seas given their size? maybe even be a dying race?

You very well could, and I don't see Giants as being OP in a world with Dragons and Magic.

[Master Hand]

I'm interested, I'd like to start making a sheet soon. I just have a few questions:

1. What is a good range for population, especially for the high elf and dark elf idea I have?
2. We don't need to put numbers for the military? Is this part of the stats we're given?
3. Is there anything we need to know besides the Lore/Background paragraph?
4. Is income what the nation is getting per turn? Is total coin the total amount of money? What is a good or bad amount of coin?

Sorry for all of the questions, I just want to make sure I understand it all.

Not a problem muh dude, 1: I'll supply the Population based on what area you pick, if you want a higher population: 25Mil being the high and 2Mil being the low. 2: I will provide Troop stats in a DM, 3: Not that I can think of if you have any specific questions about the world you can DM me about them and I can answer you to clear things up. 4: I'll provide income and total coin once again based on the location you select.

If you want a good spot I can recommend several locations.

 

[Master Hand]

Thanks m8, appreciate your quick response. Should I PM you to see the locations or do you want to put them here so other people can see them? Also, I kind of like that boot shaped part on the lower right of Trurias, is that good The Forge ?

Those two maps are the only ones I have available, however all I need is a general area and I'll put you there later when I create the Political Map, yes thats a good area to start. Towns, Settlements and Castles will be on the Political Map which I am holding off on creating until I know how many players I can get for this game.

 

[The Forge]

Three current players I'll make the map after we get at least a couple more.

It me making a nation of gnomes and looking for the best hotel prices:

(Seriously creating a nation sheet)

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

Valryn Commonwealth
Kingdom of a Thousand Cities of Ice​

Government

The Valryn Commonwealth is ruled by the Grand Prince and the privy council. The decentralized nature of the Commonwealth is reflected in the power of the latter. Prominent princes and dukes sit on the council. The consent of a majority of the body is required to change significant laws, declare war, and grant, or remove, land titles.

Capital: Karth

Leader: Grand Prince Eniziver of the Vale

Spoiler

Demographics

National Census
70% Gnome
20% Human
5% Goblin
5% Dark Elf

Total Population:

The Valryn archipelago may appear sparsely populated to any traveler at first. Scattered tribes of snow trolls have free range on most of the islands. Only the southern most city of Valzu is completely above ground. The capital of Karth has impressive, palatial structures above ground, but the majority of the city is deep beneath the earth where the rest of the Commonwealth lies.

After the defeat of Malador, the underground cities of the Commonwealth were opened to foreigners. Human refugees from surrounding territories flowed into the cities. Upon arrival, they set up sprawling neighborhoods of makeshift lodgings in the cavernous grand halls characteristic of most Valyrn undergrounds.

Other migrants came to study Gnome technology - or perhaps to simply see sights previously unseen by non-Gnomes.

Religion: Valryn cosmovision

The dominant belief system of the Commonwealth revolves around the living spirit of the earth and the live-bringing sun deity. However, most denizens are agnostic at best.

Hopefully but even if it doesn't I start it and maybe more will come when they see it being played, or we can still make this fun with 4 players.

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

It seems most NBRPGs start with as few players.

[Comrade in the Shade]

[The Forge]

Starting this game Friday 8:00 PM Eastern Time

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

A few Q's:

Will turns always start then?
Will you give us stats at 8pm or before?
And, will you create a new IC Thread?

Turns will have no set timing, you can post whenever and when I am online I will moderate, to tell time in the game every 4 days will be one year with Friday starting in Winter, Saturday Fall, Sunday Spring and Monday Summer...this will go on until someone wins or the game dies. No I will put an introduction to act as a divider for this thread and we just stick with this one. Conversations between nation leaders or negotiations between two nations can take place through PM as long as I'm informed of the results. I will get you your stats before 8pm probably sometime tomorrow in the middle of the day. Saturday I will be afk for a few hours due to a football game.

 

[Comrade in the Shade]

Thanks. Luck with your game!
