The Millennial Battle
A Combat Oriented Dark Fantasy RP
"When the millennium ends
The monsters will awake
And pour from the gates
The Braves the world sends
The monsters down to take
To win or to lose their lives"

"We all know that the gods were never merciful to our world, seeking only amusement from us mortals, but the Millennium Battle is probably the cruelest thing they could think of.
Each thousand years the gods let the seal on the Gate loosen up, allowing monsters to come to our world.
Each millennium the nations of the world pick a hundred young ones to send there.
One of them is to become the Savior while the others are split into groups of eleven and given different roles, identified by the equipment they gain.
As long as the Savior remains alive the others will always be returned to existence into a special room if they are killed.
If the Savior is killed then everyone else is gone to, their fate unknown as this means that the Gate slams open and hordes of monsters overrun the Valley of Lost Souls, where the Gate rests and the Millennial Battle takes place.
The ones sent to this bloodshed are known as Braves - should they win they become Heroes, saviors of the world and get a reward from the gods - should they lose they are just Ghosts, many of the countless unknowns that failed to save anything.
You that come after us, heed this warning, prepare for the Millennial Battle for if you are not ready when it comes you will be erased from this world.

Millennial Battle - A conflict fought in the Valley of Lost Souls between one hundred Braves and numerous monsters. Except for the Savior all Braves are revived should they die. The conflict lasts until the Braves manage to get to the nine Altars which when all activated close the Gate, or if all the Altars deactivate (see Altars), or if the Savior dies.
Valley of Lost Souls - a narrow mountain valley some 50 km (~33 miles) in length. One one end it is connected with the rest of the world trough the Pass of Forsaken Heroes while on the other lay the Gate. Over millennia near the Pass a complex system of fortifications was made in order to help the Braves by giving them a home and many facilities which is now known as the Hall of the Braves.
Braves - Young people from all the races of the world, that were ether chosen or volunteered. One of them has the role of Savior - which is similar to the king piece in chess. The rest are split in teams of eleven and given varying Roles which can be identified by the equipment that summons itself when they step into the Valley of Lost Souls.
Monsters - A name for all creatures that come trough the Gate or their descendants. Generally monsters are separated into three categories: Originals, Descendants and Unique. All monsters share an extremely violent nature and only work together during the Millennial Battle due the influence of the gods.
Savior - A special role in the Braves. Unlike the rest of the Braves the Savior is the only one that can be permanently killed as long as the Millennial Battle lasts. Should the Savior die the Braves automatically lose!
Altars - Nine rock spires scattered across the Valley of Lost Souls with strange markings on them. Activating all of them at the same time wins the fight for the Braves. Each activated Altar will only be active for a month, but activating a new altar will add half a month to the activation length of all other active Altars. If the Braves have no active Altars they lose. The Braves start with two Altars active, both with two months until deactivation.
Gate - A massive cave with a gate-like arch carved out on its end. Usually sealed, but every thousand years the gods loosen the seal and bring monsters to the Valley of Lost Souls in preparation for the Millennial Battle.
Hall of the Braves - A series of fortification and facilities built around the Room of Revival. Along with being a powerful military facility with several armories, siege machines and so on, it also houses many other facilities, including among other: several temples, rooms for craftsmanship (for example for carpentry or smiting) and a pool.
Pass of Forsaken Heroes - a long and narrow mountain pass connecting the Valley of Lost Souls and the rest of the world. If the Braves lost a Millennial Game armies from all over the world would fight in this pass to buy time for the world to create hidden villages (to survive the monster hordes) and leave as many traces that are impossible to destroy or hidden away. The name comes from the fact that despite all that fought in here were heroes they never had any hope of winning and were forsaken to buy time.
Roles - warrior, magician, archer and so on. Roles are a special power put on the Braves that allows them to learn skills related to their Roles extremely fast, even without someone to teach them, and grants them an special Role Power. It should be noted that Braves might use any skills unrelated to their Role if they knew it before entering the Millennial Battle.
Role Power - A special power granted together with a Role. Usually stems from both the Brave's Role and character.
Original Monsters - Monsters which were part of the first Millennial Battle or were created by the gods later on. Only a partial list of those identified from various images in the ruins and other remains of previous civilizations exists.
Descendant Monsters - Monsters that were born from copulation between monsters and a member of one of the races of the world. Most of them known one of the language of the world and have some intelligence.
Unique Monsters - Powerful and dangerous monsters which are ether competently new beings or "special" versions of Original/Descendant monsters. Usually highly intelligent or able to become highly intelligent but only able to create lesser versions of themselves trough procreation.
Gods - The gods of the world. It is believed that the number of gods is anywhere from twelve to a myriad. It is known that there is at least one dozen of them.
Room of Revival - The room in which Braves revive in case of death.
Now as another Millennial Battle approaches the races of this world must once again send young ones to become new Braves. Some will join on their own, seeking to gain fame, wealth, prestige as well as the unknown reward from the gods. Other might be forced, with threats or other methods. But no matter for what reasons or on what ways they now arrived into the Valley of Lost Souls. It is time for a new generation of Braves to step up and fight to keep world from once again falling into darkness...
Note:
Monsters are cruel, have no concept of mercy and follow their instincts, you should expect if your character is defeated but not killed that the monster has a good reason to do so, be it rape, torture or fun. Also due to the nature of the RP's setting expect lots of blood, chopped-off body parts and generally other gory stuff.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
