The Six Empires Map of Noveria(Credit to John Timmerman, I guess) IC Thread
I've put everything in sections with spoilers. Just to make it a shorter, more organized first post.
Introduction
Spoiler: click to toggle Well, I'm not going to post a prologue or anything. Instead, I'll just give you the basic details... - This roleplay takes place in medieval times, with a heavy dose of fantasy. The Six Empires that dictate the land of Noveria(map at top of post) are divided due to their different elemental interests. Yes, there are dragons, sorcerers, fortune tellers, centaurs, minotaurs, elfs, etc. etc. - The main plot is the Six Empires have been living with each other peacefully, until the Empire of Darkness has decided to invade the other five in an attempt for complete control. This is just the main plot, though. Like D&D(Dungeons and Dragons), there will be many sub-plots. - The map I have chosen to use makes Noveria look small. In reality, it's huge. In case you haven't noticed, there's a small scale on the bottom left, 0 and 100. The 100 is 100 miles. To avoid extremely slow progression, there is a network of about twelve portals. Every empire except for darkness has one. There are six on the coastlines, and one on the Summer Isles.
Rules and Expectations
Spoiler: click to toggle I won't ask much of you, but I ask you to use common sense. Don't try and apply with the character name of "Jim Brown" or "Akatsumi Narashi" or anything like that. Do those sound even remotely fantasy? No.. This isn't the far east or modern times, this is the fictional world of Noveria where elves and dragons roam the lands.
Also, try not to post horribly. By this I mean use grammar, be literate, and don't post one liners. The last thing I have to say is describe your character in your first post thoroughly. Don't use pictures, they kill the imagination(except for maps.. those are pretty hard to describe.). You can add things to your character such as weapons, armors, or even slight appearance changes as the roleplay progresses, so don't worry about that.
Empires/Ranks + Applications
Spoiler: click to toggle Empires/RanksA few notes:
- To avoid conflict in whos name the prince, king, queen or princess takes, they all take the name of the first family member to post. (So, for example, if somebody first posts the last name of Doe, then the other family members must use that last name.)
- The King decides that the city looks like, reasonably, though. The light empire isn't a war-torn empire, the water empire isn't in a drought..
- When posting, put the location at the top of your post.

Empire of Air castle
Bob was awestruck by the sheer size of the air castle.
Water: The peaceful water empire lies upon the shoreline of the western coast of Noveria, in the middle of the Thralreth Plains. King: Queen: Princess: Prince: Other: Air: The Empire of Air rests upon the top of a mountain where the wind is at it's strongest. It rests upon three mountains, to be exact. The three tallest mountains in the Iruladdun mountain range. King: Queen: Princess: Prince: Other: Earth: The Empire of Earth lies within a large forest. The most expansive forest in Noveria, to be exact. See the O in "Legon" on the map? That's where the kingdom is. King: queen: Princess: Prince: Other: Fire: Ruthless, and kill without a second thought the feared Empire of Fire resides in the heart of the Ubgoz desert. To be more exact, at the bottom of the "t" in desert on the map. King: -ShoopDaWhoop Queen: Princess: Prince: Other: -White Saber (assassin) Light: The Empire of Light is located high in the clouds. While it doesn't sit on a real cloud, it rests upon a large two kilometer long artificially created cloud. The only way up and down is a Griffon transportation symbol. Kind of like an elevator, only it has a mind of it's own and can eat you if you piss it off. You see the clouds at the bottom left of the map? Bingo. King: Queen: Princess: Prince: -ZeikHunter Other: Last and definitely not least, Empire of Darkness. The Empire of Darkness is located far underground, across a river cleverly named Styx. The only known entrance is a cave in the Urmi Isles, which only rises up from the ground at night. This is the most hostile empire. I will control the characters in this empire to avoid destroying the main plot. ApplicationAll you have to do to apply is just give me this information in this exact order: "Character name"/"Character rank+empire"/"Owner of Character" Already accepted ones are as follows. Nesad Scoria/King of the Empire of Fire/ShoopDaWhoop Seraph Dawndrake / Prince of the Kingdom of Light / ZeikHunter Inori Windstrider / Assassin of the Fire Kingdom / White Saber
If you have any questions, comments, complaints or all of that crap just PM it to me, to keep the thread clean. Mmk? Also, this is just a "bare-bones" version of the thread, as in a kind of functional interest check. By that I mean it's the actual OOC, but it's also just a 'beta version' of the roleplay.
(I have the feeling something is wrong with this thread.. please tell me if you notice because I'm not noticing it o_o)
Thread is open.
