You are a beyonder summoned by a shady Wizard named Raebyrn. His ambitions are noble asking for your help to destroy "The Sundered Stars" that bring forth daemonic waves every 3 years that terrorize his people. His methods are little better than a gangster as he threatens that if you are unable to complete the quest given to you. He will insure you will never return home. You hear grim whispers of a other summons who were given the same quest and left the Scholar's palace in hopes of completing of the quest and returning home. You haven't seen any return or hear of the terrible fates they met in the cruel world of Savos.
Beyonder will you rise to the occasion and finish the quest and be the heroes sung about in grand tales? Or will you give up on your quest to return home and instead create your own empire on this "backwards" planet. Some have joined the Order of the Two Towers in Empire of Kvass in hopes the deep lore may hold answers to return home. Others have joined insidious gangs in order to live in relative comfort long ago abandoning any hope of returning home. Beware, not all are who they say they are and see this twist of fate as nothing more than a playground to live out their wicked fantasies to hurt and take whatever they see fit. What will you do when no one is watching?
Expectations
- IC VS OOC- Don't get your feelings hurt, this is an RP. If someone's character thinks your character is dead weight fair is fair don't take it personally. I hated my friend's character in my old roll 20 RP. I was still friends with him outside of it. It's nothing personal when I decided to raze his village... I just hated his character.
- Romance Arcs- Not romantically oriented, we aren't going to do a ridiculous quest line and press pause on the whole world ending event for your characters to have a beautiful wedding on top of Mount Doom.... I mean we can, but the world will probably continue to have the world ending event.
- Commitment- This will be a long term RP. Expect waiting days for responses from your fellows, life is a terrible foe we all face. It sucks and if it comes down to it I'll make the GM call, but we will start on a lenient note.
- Communication- I like to think I'm a reasonable guy. You want to go on vacation, or your date is extra demanding just tell us. We can easily take a short rest and wait for your return, or we can just give you a "side" mission to go on and return when you are ready to return.
- PLAYER INPUT- Plot, world building and etc. I am absolutely open to it. Send me your ridiculous nobles, the shady criminal organizations and what not. I'll tell you changes to make it fit, why it cannot be done or I love it so much it will be lore. I'm a benevolent god after all this is a tale of your story in the world we create together.
- Realism- I swear to my ancestors if I see a grizzled 18 year old who's been in the military for 3 days but conquered whole nations. I'll...... I'll probably cry and throw my phone at a wall. Then send an apologetic message with recommendations or an attempt to reject the character. This does mean if your character is 14 but is competent. He has to have a decent reason as to why. Child soldier, slave or daddy's little helper I care not just pretend to work in the realms of possibility
The Key Point of the RP
- The Sundering- Every 3 years a hole in reality is ripped open in the sandy wastes where demons pour forth into the world. They attack every kingdom, empire and nation they see.
- Character Pasts- I will create NPCs for your past to catch up to you. I'll PM you a heads up on what I have planned to see if it is close to the truth. Otherwise, the village you wrote down you burned down from the past will come back to haunt you. I never enjoyed how man RPs have character background that never get brought up again by GMs. I intend to break that cycle
- The Fallen Stars- 7 different specific known points where the demons originate from. It is proven that you can destroy them as there used to be 13.
- Sandbox mechanic- You can be a heroic party of heroes. The spies that rule an empire from the darkness and etc. You are in this world as anything or anyone you want to be. You can be all you can be stealing a quote from the army.
- Full time GM- I'm currently work nights. Because of this, I won't be 100% present usually awake 1700-0800 MDT. What I can offer you is an impartial game master. I will not have a character in the game, but I will manage all NPCs.
- Monsters, Daemons and NPCs oh my!- You'll be fighting everything from Dragons to drunken wizards.
- The world goes on without you- If you ignore that ant infestation at that one village don't be surprised to see all the sugar cubes in the village disappear. That goes double to your HQ being under siege. Don't be surprised when you come home to nothing.
- Technology- At the moment I have steam engines, gunpowder and swords planned. If popular demand says more fantasy then it shall be so.
- Character Death- Hate to tell you, you jump off a cliff I'm going to dome piece your character
- Characters- Your character can be of this world or another. I'll leave it at that you are still bound to the tech level of this planet... unless you change it....
- Epic Style- I had another group in this world. Their actions may affect you and vice versa.

Homeless and without much prospects. He put his brain into selling drugs and helping out local gangs. He met Ava Birch at Georgia Tech and they dated for awhile until she graduated.

- Factions
-
- The Enclave of Kvitovia
-
Briefly mentioned by Raebyrn for its infamous necromancers and dark lore. It's a safe have for all practitioners of magic. Society is controlled by magical lodges which are ranked based off numbers, power, ancient lore, battle honors and famous individuals. Kvitovia is famous for housing beyonders with some of the lodges claiming to be descendents of the very first beyonders in Savosian history.
- The Republic of Venn'dar
-
An island nation that has a well funded navy and well trained raiders. They also seem to have bad blood with The Kvassian Empire with the orgins of the island nation pointing to being forced out their ancestral lands by the 2nd Expansion of the Kvassian Empire. The population is ruled by a council voted in by a vote. Everyone's vote is determined by how much land they own.
- The Kvassian Empire
-
Known to have bad blood with The People of Venn'dar. There has been mentions they own a landship fleet that some other beyonders simply call tanks. The people are ruled by a feudal system with odd displays of technology like factories powered by steam. For many, they only see steel swords, horse powered plows and hand tools with only the previlaged nobilty able to see and use the steam based techonology for their own pleasures and profit.
- The City State of Nysinia
-
Known to have destroyed 2 fallen stars. Its run by a brutal dictator and a caste system. Its soldiers are highly trained and armed with the most advanced technology like semiautomatic weapons. Isolated high in the mountains. Few dare to impose their control on this city state due to its vast distance from the other grand nations.
More information for factions will be learned in the RP or when you PM me CS about your character being from there. Otherwise that's all you're getting.
