Star, I've got possible dragon positions open, but only if we really get enough people. You and EN have asked so far, and at this point in the history of this world dragons are in a bit of a decline, so if we get too many dragons just searching for one another I think it might get a wee bit unbalanced.

But, I don't see the problem with a few if we have enough people. :3

And thanks Drake. :) I like that people are interested in this. I should have the majority of the racial info and some of the character classes up by the time I go to sleep. I'm so excited. ^^

Thanks EN. :) I promised, as I said in my thread that I wouldn't go halfway with the winning thing. I've had these ideas playing around in my head for a long time. It just takes a while to extract them and put them all down.

I got roughly halfway through the Human Lore tonight. Gonna seek to finish it up tomorrow, touch up on the other race's lore, and work on the Dragon Lore finally. By this weekend, there will be skellies. Hopefully. Haha.

Also wanted to explain one of the mechanics I'll be introducing. I'm not putting all of the each race's information into the OOC. When your character is accepted you'll get a PM from me detailing more in depth information and specific knowledge your character would have according to their race, class, and other character choices. For instance, if you're playing a dwarf warrior, you would get a PM from me detailing that clan's specific heritage even more, a possible rift forming within the ranks, and some special information about your birthplace, heritage and history, as well as other things you would know. I'm not saying that this is exactly what you'll get if you play a dwarf warrior, just saying it as an example.

This RP is going to be in depth as hell. It's going to be immersion heavy, it's going to be long running, and if there is enough interest I will sustain it for as long as possible. To be honest, the campaign should be simple enough to complete. I'm aiming for this to actually be resolved and played through. This is sort of a warning and sort of an explanation. I'll admit I haven't been very good about some of my RP's in the past and keeping them well cared for, but I am devoting a lot of my personal time to this one and I have no intention of letting it go to waste (example: I've spent the last 2 hours working on the OOC Lore. It's now 5 am).

If that wall of text was tl;dr then allow me to summarize: extremely flattered, extremely immersed, and extremely looking forward to hopefully getting this OOC up and running by the end of the week. Hold on to your sombreros and stay tuned for more.

I would be interested. Can my character be something obscure race-wise? Perhaps they could be in the service of one of the main races you've mentioned here?

There are several sort of secondary races that cling onto the three main ones. Halflings and giants are in service to the dwarves due to economic pacts made a few centuries ago (some of which the giants still don't understand), the gnomes as I said are tied with the elves who sort of tend to them as their children, and then there's the Lost Folk. Lost Folk are the races Dragons deemed below all other life. Orcs, goblins, demonborn, and other obscure halfbreeds and things all cling to humanity, partially because they have no where else to turn, and partially because some of them love the violence that humans seem to cause.

That's what I thought. I did read, but I was just clarifying. Which kind, in the rp, would be closest to a Nightling? (A nightling being a nocturnal good elf, as appose to drows being nocturnal and evil...)

Moon or autumn elves would be closest to that, but moon elf is sort of a prestige class/race. With elves I'm doing something a little bit different. Since magic is so innate to their culture your race will be very closely tied with what you play as for a class. So yeah, autumn elves or winter elves. All elves are good, but then again they would question just what good is. Haha.

Alrighty then. I think I'll go with a winter elf, though I'm not sure what that entails just yet :)

I think Juice needs to finish putting up all the info for the OOC so we can start actually putting together our characters. ^^
I'll whisper in your ear,
You are mine, and you will never have to be alone.
And when I pull you near,
You'll know I love you like I never loved anyone.
So let me be the one to lift you up,
I'll carry you home.
'Cause now I'm here to keep you safe,
And to catch you when you fall.

He is taking his time putting this together so he will have the drive to stay behind it. So please don't rush him so that way we can rp at our best.

I'm doing my best with the info. There's a lot to put up, and I'm sorry if it's too slow for some (looking at you partly Dream). Just, it's gonna take a few days still so bear with me. Hehe. Still getting used to the whole "admin" thing.

Being admin IS a lot of hard work... It was very taxing when my community was active. It isn't anymore, so I'm here :)

It's certainly good to make sure that one takes one's own time. I'm pretty excited, but no rush.

I read that you have a few positions availible for dragon characters, if possible i would like to take one, if you don't mind? :3

And you got me when you said you want this in depth and etc. I like it when people are serious about writing and/or RPing :D

I am still monitoring the thread >.> I have no life, so I can play a dedicated role if dedication is a requirement for some special characters. The only thing I have planned for this week is fishing on Tuesday.

Updated some info on the human empire of Bordros. I'll be finishing off the info on humans tonight and hopefully getting started or even finished with the additional racial info tonight. I plan on getting the OOC open for submission by the beginning of next month at the latest.

Sorry for the delay guys. It's a lot of info, so sorry for that too if it's overwhelming. Haha.

By the by, let me know what you think about the information as it's been presented. Like, let me know what you think about the races and the empires and the info. If something doesn't work, or you think I should change something or add something in or take something out, let me know. This is very much still a work in progress, so I would love input to help it grow to be better.

This is the one you abandoned my DnD for?!

To be honest, I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm tempted to do the same!

Holy crap Juice, awesome work. Very very VERY incredible.

Is this played like DnD or just free form?

I am keeping my eyes on this one as well. Most definitely.

It's gonna be a dumbed down version of DnD. I don't want to go through the hassle of everyone having so many stats to deal with, and I also don't want to confine the classes to only those in the books. It's gonna be a lot of work to help the classes evolve, but I think it's worth it for the specialization and uniqueness of it.
