--The Chronicles of Reist--

Starting Date: December 15th, 2004

Synopsis:
“In ancient times, the land of Reist was under siege from the Sadēs or Shades. The humans who lived on the island-country were no match for the demons, who poured forth from the belly of the earth like dark waves. The dragons who lived high in the mountains of Reist saw the danger that threatened to engulf the whole country. They allied themselves with the humans, teaching them the ancient art of magic. Some even went as far as to allow their human companions to ride upon their back into battle. These few humans were known as the Dragon Riders. Together, they drove back the forces of the Sadēs and imprisoned them, sealing the entrance with powerful magic. After the war, the dragons went back to their mountain caves and were never seen again. The humans had learned all types of magic from the dragons. Each type of mage built their own city and taught their brand of magic to others.” This RP, entitled "The Chronicles of Reist" will be about a group of (humans) from different cities in the country of Reist, who, by mysterious circumstances, band together in search of six temples which are said to house six gems of unimaginable power and may lead them to the lairs of the Forgotten Race (dragons). Each has alternative motives for coming along; money, adventure, friends, stories... you decide!

Synopsis: This thread is to start a fractured fairytale of the original Cinderella story by the Brothers Grimm. I think this will be interesting to see how a fractured fairytale turns out. Of course we will need to stick to the original story as much as possible, but we can add things in (ie: characters, dialogue, sub-plots,...etc). I will be posting the original fairytale as the first post. Please read it to make sure that you are completely aware what the real story is like (since it isn't like the Disney movie). If you think this would be an interesting idea for an RP and you'd like to join, then please come here.

You can choose which pairs you want to be in and you battle using your shapeshifting abilities and the powers/weapons that come with each form. But you can't stay in one form for too long. Exact time to be decided. Well I hope you like it

Originator: ElfMaiden13 & Arwen32315
Starting Date: August 12, 2004
Current Participants: 2
If accepting new members: Yes!
Synopsis: Adüna, a mostly desertous land, is in danger from an unknown threat. The Iltya, an elf-like race, have retreated into their forested kingdoms by the sea, and the desert clans battle amongst themselves for power. The one time heroes of the land, the Dragon Riders of the Eirlys Mountains, have faded into legend and myth centuries old. Their once great history has become a child's nursery tale. A few of these ancient people's still remain, hidden away in the mountain fastness. Even to them, much of their past is forgotten, but their pride remains. But, when their Princess and the last of the unbroken royal is kidnapped while away on a quest for peace, what little structure remained to their crumbling society is shattered.
Now the riders are a thing of the past...forgotten but by a few. The old storytellers, the mages, and the elves are among the dwindling number that remember the tales of old, which evanesence into the mountains from which they came....
The desert mage, A'mora, has had a vision; a vision of the riders again rising from the ashes of their glory, But she fears it will never be. For a new power is rising. A shadow that threatens to engulf all of Adüna. The search for the young rider is on, for soon it will be too late.
Brief Excerpt: A small smile played about her mouth. These people were so simple, unaware of the turmoil going on right under their noses. The smell of the slave market soon drifted up to assault her nose. She had avoided this area of the bazaar like it was a deadly disease; her head and her feet seemed to be telling her otherwise, however. Pausing to watch a young woman being led to her new master, A'mora let her guard slip for an instant, her eyes locked with the girls.
To her surprise, the girl returned, and held her gaze; green eyes meeting green. There was a spark of defiance, and something else that A'mora didn't quite recognize. In that brief moment, time stood still.
The two might have stood there for hours, locked in an unseen battle, had it not been for the slave guards. "Keep your eyes down, filth!" The girls head had snapped sideways sharply as the guard hit her for her insubordinance. A'mora instantly pulled her hood up over her head and walked quickly to where her horse was tied. Never before had anyone met her gaze and lived. It was death to meet the eyes of any mage unbidden. Her shock was deepened still by the vision that had taken hold of her in that brief instant.

Average Posts Per Day: Varies...OOC three to four. Main role play thread sometimes moves slow depending on where we are in the quest or moves fast if we are at rest.
Synopsis: Never Winter Nights was patterned very loosely on a game of the same name, set in medieval times. Fantasy based, the plot follows the game with a plague that threatens all of Highest Earth. People from all backgrounds and strengths come to answer the call of Aribeth, High Priestess for Never Winter. Currently, the group has trained and been educated on the plague in the first part of this adventure, found the tools to cure it in the second part and in this most recent part actually did cure the plague. The next phase is to send out the group to find clues as to who was responsible for this dastardly deed and then to hunt him/her down. Role playing with every sort of human and non-human, Never Winter Nights offers a wide range of writing skills, emotional depth, warrior class fighting skills, demons, magic, deceit and a small bit of romance.

Synopsis: Long ago in Arianan, King Lowyn ruled triumphantly with his wife, Queen Ariana. Without their knowing, an evil grew more and more over Arianan. The years passed, and the king and queen had many children. They had five children. The eldest, Jonah, craved power. The second oldest, Lizette, wanted to own a kingdom where only elves would live. The third oldest, Garth, decided he would build a kingdom up in the mountains of Lithuall. The fourth oldest, Gardenia, created a kingdom next to the Daed Sea. And the youngest, Gentry, eventually noticing the evil (without telling anyone) wanted to build a kingdom as far from Arianan as he could, so he built a kingdom in the country called Norpolin. Because Jonah craved power (which was a sign that the evil was posessing him), he remained in Arianan where he impatiently waited for his mother and father to pass away.
The evil devoured Jonah, and the land Arianan became a wicked land where no one was happy, and no one was allowed to leave without paying the penalty of death. King Jonah married and had children of his own. Now, there is only one ruler of the land, King Alexandres (he killed his siblings so he would be the only ruler).

Rainfield walked into the dimly lit inn, he walked around the tables and took a seat at the bar. Not a soul was in sight but he was certain that one would walk through the oak doors before long. He turned on his stool, faced the open inn in front of him, and waited.
First off, let me say thank you! Hopefully this thread can accomplish something that my directory failed to do so. I can't even update the directory anymore because every time I try to edit, everything comes up all in one paragraph, and all wacked out of shape. Do you think we could join a union here? Would I be able to move the directory to this post right here, so newbies and veterens alike could view the open threads without having to scroll through every post?
If not it's fine, this is still a great idea, and I hope the green dragon grows from this.
