Soo....Yeah...The Original War RP Kind of Died...Partially thanks to yours truly ^^;;;;;...So Yeah...I'm restarting it... Here's basically a repost of what the RP is about and what you base your characters on ...
The setting is a whole nother dimention/world/whatever. It is a world of fantasy and magic. However, the is a huge war going on between all the species (I'll list those later on in this post). The point of this RP is not battle but the ability to find friendship and even perhaps love within all the chaos. Oh . . .and the war is a typical war over land, power, monetal gains (treasures) and such.
You may play up to three major characters. This is not your average RP . . .No one is going to be paired up . . .It is up for the players to decide if they want to be up in the RP or not . . .Relationships can be made and broken. As for minor characters, you can have as many as you want as long as you don't go too overboard . . .I don't want this to be too confusing though I know a little confusion is inevitable . .It IS war afterall . . . .Also, there is NO crossbreeds . . .I'm going to have a little reality play in this and therefore, it is impossible for one species to have an offspring with another . . . .There's other rules but I'll list those at the beginning of the actual RP . .the rules I listed just happened to be those that would apply to the actual signing up and such.
Heres's the list of species:
-Giant (they're size shifters . .they have a regular height, double that size, and a small scale, large scale, and extra large scale giant size...see the "how tall is your giant thread" under story-related)
-Elemental (normal size)
-Animal Sprite (normal size) (have beast forms in which the size varies depending on the animal (b/w 10ft and 40ft let's say)
-Elves (normal sized)
-Humans (normal sized)
-Dwarfs (2ft-4ft; proportionally normal)
-Dragon (50-150 ft long; have normal sized human-like form; regular fire-breathing type dragons; can talk in either form)
. . . .And that's it . . . .If you have a request message me
Also, no matter what species you choose you can be male or female and warrior or not-warrior or whatever . . . .You could always be a civilian caught up in the war or whatever
Again if you have a question message me
Please Sign Up People don't make me feel like a looser
Oh and I know magic can get out of hand . . . .There is no REAL magic persay though . . .The closest thing is the elemental sprite's control over the elements . . Yeah . . .I'll set a limit on that in the official rules . . .Though I am going to try to give a LOT of freedom to the players . . .However, I also want the RP to be fun and to not have power struggles over who wants to be THE strongest . . . .NO ONE IS IMMORTAL in this . . . . .Also, killing a main character is only to be done by THE player of the character [or if you get permission. . Ok . .Yeah . . . .Just sign up . . .It'll be fun stuff . . . Hopefully . .
Hokay . . .Here's the deal . . . as for alliances there is no good or bad . . .It's each species to itself . . .So you are either for the army of your species, nuetral, a pacifist (totally against the war), or a spy (you are in the army of your species but you work for another species) . . .I would say you could be a soldier for hire . . .But,as of now because I said so, the species hate each other . . .So no army would hire a soldier of a different species unless they wanted a spy . . .
Also, Humans are humans . . .They have no magic . .Therefore, they have no supernatural powers (sorry Mika . . .YOu could be VERY stealthy . . .but not invisible) . . .HUmans, however, have nifty weapons . . .Elementals/Giants/Animal Spirits/Dragons . . .Do not have nifty weapons . . . . .They already have enough advantages due to what they are . .
Ok here are the list of elements: Fire, Ice, Water, Wind, Earth (Dirt/Rocks), Plant, Poison, Lighting, Thunder (Sound), Darkness and Light.
Since the elementals are the only ones with magic (animals just have claws, slightly above average strength, and beast forms), I'm going to list what they can do . . .Just so people to make up crazy crap that they deem is unbeatable or whatever . . As I said before . . No one is unbeatable . . . .(*sighs* . . .Battles in an RP can be very stressful --_-- . . .But it's worth a shot . .If it gets too out of hand . . .Then well . . .There's nothing really I can do about that U.U;
Anywho here's the powers the elementals have:
Fire: They can breathe flames/ shoot it out from their bodies (e.g their hands)/can manipulate fire to a certain extent (not a huge amount)
Ice: They can breath ice/shoot ice from their bodies/freeze things/can manipulate the ice they summon (also can not control a lot)
Water: shoot water form their mouths and body/make it rain/can manipulate small bodies of water
Wind: can create strong currents of wind/can fly/ can create mini-tornados
Earth: shoot rock spikes from their hands/create mini earthquakes/can manipulate medium amounts of dirt
Plant: can manipulate trees/plants (e.g can make plants vicious and attack things)
Poison: have poisonous fangs and claws/can spit out poison/can shoot out poisonous thorns
Lightning: can shoot lightning from their appendeges/can create electrical storm (but they do not have control over the storm . .They just make it happen)/can manipulate small amounts of electricity (e.g. they can create cages or whatever)
Thunder: supersonic clap/yell that causes intense pain/the yell/clap also tends to blow the opponent backwards to a certain degree besides causing intense pain
Darkness: They can make it dark (literally) (e.g they can blind their opponents) [can also solidify/manipulate darkness in a way] /Seduction (They can seduce opponents do what they want for a temporary amount of time
Light: They can make it light . .Even blindingly so [can also sort of solidify/manipulate light in a way]/They also seduce
Also Humans/Elves/Dwarves are pretty much normal people with weapons . . .This is why ONLY they can have weapons . . I'm just trying to have an even playing field here . .U.U . . .Those who are playing a HUman/Elve/Dwarf . . .Have fun creating inventive weapons (NO GUNS/bomb type things . . . .Think swords/arrows/axes/etc . . .)
NOTE: I am NOT trying to be a dictator . . I'm trying to be FAIR . . . .War is complicate . . .There should be struggles . .Yes . . .But I don't want too many power struggles . . .And most importantly . .I DON'T want someone think they have such a friggin bad@$$ character that is totally awesome and no one can defeat . . .Not going to happen . . .Hopefully not . . .If it does . . I don't know about you guys . . .But I'd be ditching the RP
