No problem. Finished off the Human Lore today, as well as the lore for gnomes and halflings. I'll work on the rest of the Lesser Race lore tonight and technical stuff will get started tomorrow. |

Got up the info on giants. I think they're a pretty fun race. I'm hoping someone may even play as one, but I'm not hoping too hard. Haha. Goblins, orcs, and demonborn tomorrow, followed up by dragons, and then I start work on the technical information, which I will try not to make quite as involved as I've made the lore and in game stuff. Hehe. >_> |

I'm still calling dibs on my super awesome character, so if anyone copies it they shall face the wrath of similar character design. :] |

Duly noted. ![]() Alright ladies and gentlemen. For all intents and purposes the story info is all up and complete. I'll put up some maps and other stuff later, but that is all the information you need to create a character. Tonight and tomorrow, I'll put up the character creation information. By this weekend, you'll be able to post your characters. So look through the info, begin deciding what you want to play as, and get ready for this thing to kick off! |

Autumn Elf Winter Elf Shadeling Ashkin I'm looking into being one of these, more interested in the first three. I want to make a strong silent type character. The Autumn elf doesn't really fit that, but I like their lore. The Shadeling also fits very well what I'd like to do in terms of character personality. The Winter Elf does too sort of. I think I'm aiming for the Shadeling the most though. Yeah, they interest me the most. The Vunari are cool to. But yeah, I want a Shadeling if that's possible. I haven't ever seen a role play with so much awesome packed in. This looks like it'll be amazingly awesome. Well done sir, well done. |

Thanks Twisted. ![]() A couple things on the mechanics and technical info. -For every race there will be at least 3 unique class options totally tailored to that specific race. For races with additional options such as the kingdoms of the humans and the clans of the dwarves, there will be additional classes specific to those classes and kingdoms. So say you want to play a human from Bordros. Your class list will be different from a human from Konkard. -We're running off of a small stat thing so nothing complex. More on that later. -Info on specific features of your character will be PM'd to you in more detail. Enjoy! |

I'm not gonna lie: you guys should take a look at the start of the class info on page 1 of this whole thing. I just got done with the dwarves, just as a taste for what you can expect the format to look like, and I think you all are gonna like it. May be a bit conceited to say, but I think it's pretty awesome. I honestly want to play a dwarf. Dunno what it is about them in this setting, but I'm really just feeling dwarf. Hell, writing the info for all of this is just making me feel good. Like, I don't even know how to explain it. I hope you guys are enjoying it and will enjoy playing it as much as I have enjoyed making it. I really hope the effort is worth it.N'night folks. |

I'll definatey be signing myself up, if you'll have me Deuce ![]() This roleplay is so well crafted. I love your designs, and the seven elf races are so unique! I have a soft spot for elves (always rp'ed and gamed as an Elven race) so the heart and soul put into developing the Elves alone is enough to win me over! And congratulations on your stamina too. Handling this and your Admin position has gotta be tiresome. Chin up Juicesir, you are doing excellent, unimaginable work!

Excellent! I have already found a picture (sorted through over 1,400 Elf pictures to get one - not many that match Summer Elf, but plenty for Spring and Winter!) and I've named her and developed some character traits... Yes, I might be a little excited about this roleplay, and yes, I might have been procrastinating when I was supposed to be doing Law work, and yes, it was worth it

A thing I just added to the dwarves that will be incorporated into the other classes (because I forgot) was experience gain. Each class has a different way of gaining experience from others. Traders will gain experience by buying and selling things as well as persuading people. Slayers will gain experience by killing things or doing crazy stunts. Other ways have been listed, so read carefully through your class for the cues that I will give that will let you know how you can gain experience in your specific character's way. More experience will unlock new powers and abilities as well as level gains (more of which I will go into later on). For instance, the elves are based on a merit system, so performing their assigned duties well will go far towards promotion into Moon or Sun elves. They may also be courted by Elven guilds for their specific play style. It's all up to how you play the character. New rewards will be dolled out depending on how you choose to play and how much experience you gain. Hope this isn't getting to complex for you all to follow. Haha. Also, don't worry. I'm not assigning specific experience points or anything here. The only stats you'll need to worry about are like 4 stats. Experience is based on my judgement primarily, as well as your exploits and rigor of play. So basically, the more you're into it and playing along with how you want your character to be, the more rewards you get. If you're not roleplaying well or going against what you said you want your character to be like, then no soup for you. That isn't to say that if your character is going through some sort of character development I won't reward you for doing different things, but its gotta be believable. These are basically roleplay rewards I'm giving out, so if you roleplay your character well, you get more cool shit. That's all. Jesus, I'm just rambling. @_@ Edited by Juicesir, August 5, 2011, 10:18 am.

It took me forever to find a picture, after sorting through hundreds for the perfect Summer Elf. And then, the pain of choosing an Elvish name with a definition that somehow matched followed. And then, the mightiest blow so far; Juicesir put up the classes for the Summer Elves. Dear lord, they were all too good!! You have an amazing imagination there, Sir! ![]() I know that we're a while away from profiles and such, but I wanted to share my character idea so far!! Please forgive my over-anticipation I hope this is ok to do... If not I'll wipe this post clean ![]() This is Sa’ritae Tyrundlin, the Svamanirii Summer Elf! (Elvish Translation to ‘Burning Love’ and ‘The Kiss of a Loving Mistress’) ![]() Of coruse, I went with the ![]() |

I like it. And I'm liking that I finally finished up with the Elf class intro info. Humans will be up tonight, then all the auxiliary races, then the stat system, then the powers and specifics of each class.And then, dear people, the OOC will be open. Edited by Juicesir, August 7, 2011, 3:39 am.

What about the other races? The Shadelings and what not? Are they not playable classes? |

Sorry, I'm out of it. Those are going in too. I'm running off of no sleep right now so sorry about that. Haha. I kinda have a tendency to lump them in my mind under Humans as well. Not that they are. Just how my mind works. /end aimless rambling |

The stats are not going to be complicated. They're just basically going to be a way to keep track of attack power and the like. I'll explain it in slightly more detail later, but the gist of it is that you'll have an amour rating for body, mind, and magic. A starting dwarf's stats might look like this: Body: 2 Mind: 1 Magic: 0 Health (Body+Mind+Magic): 3 These stat double as health and armour, so if you attack with say a 3 body damage attack, you would deal 1 damage to this dwarf, and he would be at 2 health for all intents and purposes. You'll have attacks that do different things, like a 2 attack mind that if it breaks their mind defense will allow you to control a creature. Does that make sense at all? Basically your health is your armour combined. The dwarf could take 2 damage before taking actual damage to their health, and once they hit 0 on their body health, they die. A person can then choose to kill or merely knock unconscious. With mind and magic they can choose to do a different number of incapacitating things, but the general idea is the same. Does that make sense? Edited by Juicesir, August 11, 2011, 9:22 pm.
