Rated M: Brutal brutal amounts of fantasy violence, awesome fantasy environments, morbid conversations, lots of ugly imagery, adult themes, adult language
[BCOLOR=transparent]You were born to die and fail. Which sounds morbid, till you entered the world of the Aschfal. It was not of any Afterlife you were told in your collective cultures. It was vast. Beautiful. Dark. Ruled by the Neun Herren. But the Neun Herren hold on this land was beginning to wane.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]When you died, it stole their hold of this world. Their magic fading and this dimension up for grabs for the next five lords to stand as the Neun Herren. Hundred of years of magic wove Aschfal, into the sprawling landscape that it was. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]To enter these realms you must traverse the Nine Realms through the Aschfal Tower. This acts as the spire that holds you. Marks you.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]It's what has called to you. Aschfal is not the land of the dead. But the land of the wandering. It is that you are not dead, but you are nowhere near alive in this world either. But you were never alive in the world you were born either.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]The Aschfal has been waiting for you. Took ahold of you. Some of you came to the Aschfal as sacrifice, others came to the Aschfal as duty. No matter how you came to be in the Aschfal, the Aschfal is now your realm.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]We have been waiting a long time for you. The Wandering has been waiting for the entrance of the new Neun Herren. And despite there only being five warriors. Nine was always the number of luck in the Aschfal. To the wandering.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]We called to you because the Neun Herren have grown corrupt in the spans of a hundred years they have ruled over the Aschfal. Unable to die. Unable to live. We called forth the ritual to mark new life upon death.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]I guide you. I awake you in the tombs they carved. With gifts from the living to your new place. Your new home. To repeat the cycle. Of the Neun Herren. You will rule with kindness and restore the land only to become corrupt some day. So we may mark the next Unliving.[/BCOLOR][BCOLOR=transparent]Aschfal Trum: Seele Enstehen [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]When you wake from the dead, you find on your corpse a scroll. Written and addressed to you;[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Sie waren gekennzeichnet von uns ausgewählte Führungen von aschfahl. Folgen Sie dem Pfad, machen Sie Ihren Weg, ihre Rechte geltend zu machen, wie unsere soulful erben.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][Translation: Marked one you were chosen by us Guides of Ashen. Follow the path, make your way, to claim your right as our soulful heir.][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]You also awake to find the offerings of your loved ones in your coffin. Unsure if this Himmel or [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]Hölle. You find a pathway marked by lanterns, guiding you to a tower in the distance. [/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]The Summary[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]Don't let the name Nine Lords fool you, you and four other Warriors were born with warm, scorching to touch birthmarks with swords in your shoulder. You were born always knowing what this meant. That any task you were given you were bound to fail. Whether that was in the line of duty as a soldier in war, you were bound to "die". Or you were a carpenter who fell from the roof you were bound to "die". Some may have been outright sacrificed when old enough by their own people.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]All though you never really believed the words that there was a place between your Living World, Himmel [Heaven] and Hölle [Hell]. You find yourself with a mysterious scroll, a pathway of lanterns guiding you to your real destiny Aschfal Tower and to the land of Aschfal itself.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]Aschfal is not a place of death. But it is not a place of living either. It is a place within a place that exist off of magic. You cannot be born in Aschfal, instead you must be summoned to Aschfal by the will of the Soul Witches by death in your other world.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]In other words, coffins are portals to this spiritual dimension called Aschfal. You are to take on the Nine Realms and the Nine Lords to claim your rightful spot as the new heirs to the kingdom of Aschfal. The journey will be long, bloody, and taxing on your mind.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]Yet, it will shape you. And you will shape it.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]The Rules[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Follow all of Iwaku's Rules, you know them, no point in repeating them[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]I am a GM Nazi, and I am going to be honest about that. I expect, anyone interested in this RP, to be expected to Post Quality Post. That strengthen the narrative. I will not accept One Line Sentences. But I will accept the Minimum of One Quality Paragraph. But the Paragraph has to be Quality. I rather you strive for Two Or Three.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]The Post Speeding will be Variant on How Fast the Players can Post. I will be limited it to 3 Post a Day. Exceptions will be If Everyone is Online at the Same Time, we may do some fun stuff together.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Communication Is Key. I expect my members to be communicating to me when they have vacations, midterms, and other issues that may delay the RP or their posting speed. So I can adjust the RP.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Be Creative. The Success in Any RP. Is the Effort Each Member Puts into the RP. Creative characters that open pathways for storytelling arcs and are dynamic in nature will do much better than baseline characters.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]How I Select Characters to be accepted; As I will reiterate later in the Cast Section, is you have 48 hours to complete a character for the Slot You Have Reserved. Exceptions are you speak with me about work or a busy life, I'll give you a week. However, characters are often accepted based on the criteria of creativity, if you're willing to accept criticism. Most likely, as long as you get the sheet completed in the timeline, consider you're guaranteed to have a position in this RP.[/BCOLOR]

Come on you're going to become a Lord of the Realm. You need a beautiful weapon. Please use judgment when working your abilities. And remember your character's class also has abilities.
