Fantasy Norhad Swords June 2020 ( soft reboot/ recruiting )

The World of Elegos Awaits!
​

Anyone interested in being a part of an original fantasy adventure?
We have an ongoing RP, and we're looking for new players.

Below, you will find some aspects this RP has to offer players.

Storyline:
The current story revolves around a newly formed mercenary unit led by Captain Seles Klarth, the longest serving Captain of the Norhad Swords. Their primary mission is the protect the citizens of the rural territories of a kingdom as well as discover and eliminate any operations by the wars antagonist, the Kingdom of Lanark. Currently they are discovering a plot to undermine the whole Norhad Swords Initiative.

Here's a quick synopsis of the past 2 chapters in the RP

Fantasy - The Principle Journey Journal Entries/Engagement Scenarios

=============================================== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Journey Book Entries and Engagement scenarios ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ =============================================== A summary of past events will be posted in this...

Setting:
The Backdrop of the Story on a Continental Scale is the event known as the BLOOD WARS. It is a war that has been ongoing for 500 years with both hot and cold periods. Currently it is a hot period, with the antagonist Kingdom of Lanark, having conquered 200 milion hectares of land from 4 other kingdoms on the continent.
It is a Fantasy genre which includes multiple races, the use of 'magic' or supernatural powers, otherworldly animals and plants, Royal nobility, castles,
I modeled the time period of the RP to have parallels with 18th and 19th century architecture, technologies, political situations, governmental structures etc.
It does contain aspects of Steampunk as well, use of firearms, airships and locomotives being the primary means of transportation.

Original Content:
There is a ton of original content. This RP has been rebooted several times over the past few years. I have always tried to keep all the information together to pass down to the next iteration. Players over the years have contributed a lot to the lore in the form of animals, plants, locations and technologies.


Combat: NOT MANDATORY. There exists a crude yet measured way of combat in this RP. In addition to combat flavor text, through the power of basic dice rolls, resource consuming abilities and a custom engagement scenario, players can enjoy a meaningful combat experience. As the first sentence explains, this is purely for the players enjoyment, and those who do not wish to participate can choose to opt out, and still RP through the combat periods.

Please feel free to ask questions. I will be more than happy to answer them!

All new players will enter the RP as survivors of an ambush on their Unit.

What do you mean by this line? Are we to assume that our characters are already apart of the Swords?

 

[Shin Positron Laser]

I'm very interested. How do I go about joining up?

Awesome. So first, use the link in this thread to go to the OOC page. Once there you can browse the top post for the Character Thread link. The new thread will contain the Character Sheet and some previous entries that can help with character creation.

The OOC top post also includes other useful information for character building.

That is correct. Your OC would be a relatively new member of the Norhad Swords so characters would not knownl of each other. But if you had something else in mind that let me know. I'm going with this format cause its an easy transition for the current story.

Absolutely! The OOC opening post has everything you need to get started. If there are any questions or clarifications needed let me know.

Shin Positron Laser I was reading through a lot of your threads, and I notice there isn't a thread that talks about the allowable job classes or what all magic there is. I might have missed it, but I never just saw a straight up explanation about job classes, magic, and I saw the Artes thread but it doesn't really explain any of the nomenclature you're using in the CS. If you just make a nice 101 guide on how to apply to this game and which explains what all of that system stuff is in the character sheet, then it would make your recruitment efforts a little easier. Because with how it is currently, I can fill out all the general free-form information about my character, pending on the job class and magic questions getting answered. But the Arte stuff...I am lost in the sauce with that and I will most definitely be even more lost when it comes to the combat in game.
