Thread: Ego Quest

I am an assistant manager at another roleplaying board, however it took me a little while to get used to the system this board uses. .I will put up the intro post when enough people have signed up.

Joining:

PM me your character. The profile should go like this:

Name:Self explanatory
Appearance:Nothing overly detailed, just a basic description
Abilities:This is a fantasy story so the sky's the limit. However be reasonable with your character's powers.
Backstory:This is just for me to know. Realize when you put in a backstory you have to stick to it. This is to ensure you can't make your character take the spotlight(i.e somehow being related to the main villain) Also, please read the World summary so your character's backstory dosen't conflict with the world it's set in.

PLEASE read the World Summary in this post before creating a character as to not conflict with the established world set up. Also this World Summary is NOT the intro post, which will be posted when the RPG is ready to begin.

If you want to join and the RPG is still going on, PM me and wait for me to respond. I apoligize if i take awhile to get to PM's. I mean at first I won't because I'll be(hoping) for people to join this. However like 32-100 posts in(assuming we make it that far) I'll check them but I might start forgetting then but I will check. You may play as a villain and a hero if you wish so long as your hero isn't hogging the spotlight. If I don't get a sufficent amount of villains then I will create and play them and yes it's up to you to create a villain if you so wish.

Rules:

Godmodding- Hitting a character or dodging an attack is fine. It's when your post is about two paragraphs consisting of "He slammed his fist into his cranium....then he slammed him on the ground 50 times over.....broke his arm..." No way. Also, don't hog the spotlight. Also, villains will be allowed more leeway as villains have to look really strong to put up a good fight against a group of people but I will punish if it get's out of hand. If you god mod too much, I will kill your character off and that will be that.

Injuries/Death-Only the person playing the character can decide if an arm is broken or if he/she dies.

Advancement-If I say an entrance is blocked off, or escape is impossible, it is until I say otherwise.

Don't ignore someone's post-if someone posts something whether introducing their character or say something, don't ignore it unless they say something like"said it too quietly for them to hear"

Have fun, don't take things personally.

World Summary:

As far as timeline, the world is divided into two distinct periods:Tribal and Industrial. In the tribal days, everyone followed tribes based on ther species, (refered to in the industrial age as a Kingdom, based on the Kingdoms of Classifacation) Most kingdoms had their golden age at one point or another.
Many tribes had contact with Circle Lords, Demons from the "Damned World" as it is refered to, who came under peaceful terms, offering peace between them in exchange for non soldien(more on that later) women to plant seeds inside, which would ultimately kill them and create a demon in it's place. Although the demons and humans were at peace, the tribes weren't.They were almost always at war, until diseases began to break out and kill thousands, not to mention people were starting to complain about living conditions and questioning their lifestyle. Over a slow period of time, the tribes began to industiralize, creating cities, studying medicine further, and creating advanced weaponry. The tribes divided their new industrialized areas into regions, however the tribes lost claim to an area as they now saw less and less reason to war with eachother and people began immagrating to other regions, causing in several different kingdoms being a part of a single region.

Also, they stopped making their trades with the demons, who rather then go to war like threatened, were content to simply study them, interested in the technology they were building. Each region had a goverment and a milatary, and both were at odds as the milatary were having their defences limited. The people immidiately supported the milatary, thus the goverment stepped down, it's members fearing a revolt, and all regions acted alike, giving all governing and defending powers to the milatary. The majority of soldiens train for the milatary until they are 18 when they can enlist. Contrary to what many would think, the milatary, at least most, were not that corrupt and did care about the wellfare of the people, however there were still many problems in society due to their choice of lifestyle. Since soldien made up much of the population, many families were often torn apart when they leaft and sometimes the towns weren't always funded properly although the milatary did try it's best to balance the two.

Ok, great. But what is the purpose of the RPG. Where's it going, what do the PC's have to do and such not...

Why did you keep saying 'soldien'? Do you mean 'Soldiers'?

Also 'milatary' is spelt 'military'.

You're not suppose to know where it starts until the intro post. As for where it's going, I was assuming it would be made clear by the World Summary but I guess I didn't do a good job hinting at it. Remember the Demons I mentioned? Well they're not going to sit back forever if you know what I mean. Don't worry, I put thought into all this.

And no, Soldien is not a typo. Soldien is a term for those who posses capapbilities beyond normal people but are not necessarely soldiers in the milatary. Only those who get through the academy can be called Soldiers.

Like super soldiers, mages and etc, come on Cefor read between the lines ok

I was tired lol, n cba...
