[BCOLOR=transparent]Welcome to my interest check for a FFXV-inspired roleplay! No knowledge of the game or franchise is required, and I won't even give spoilers! Also, most of the names for stuff are placeholder names because I'm bad at naming stuff. If you have any naming ideas, please let me know! Also, if anyone could make a map, that'd be super duper, but if not, that's fine! I'd also be interested in a co-GM to help me stay on track and stuff.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]King Arandiel [Aw-rahn-dee-el] Skilium [Skee-leum] XV is the benevolent ruler of the kingdom of Anacre [Ahn-ah-kuh], a land that stretches the entirety of the continent of Lestalia [Leh-stall-ee-uh]. King Skilium XV is the latest in a long line of Radiant Kings, so named because the line was chosen by the Queen of the Great Old Ones, Echidna, to fulfill an as-of-yet unknown prophecy.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Anacre is a land of sandy beaches, deep forests, frozen tundras, craggy mountains, and dry deserts. Despite the seemingly dangerous environments, the kingdom of Anacre has experienced times of great prosperity over the course of King Arandiel's reign. And thanks to the discovery of a powerful crystal of legend - the Bahumian [bah-hoo-me-un] Crystal, said to be the eye of the king of the Great Old Ones, Bahamut. Naturally, this crystal seemed to Anacreans to be a blessing from - beneath the massive capital city of Iralife [ee-ruh-lee-f], grand new technology has been borne, replacing the magitek of old with much more efficient crystal energy! This lead to a massive industrial boom, allowing people the technology to conquer the beasts of the land and settle more territory for the kingdom. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]However, in recent years, more and more powerful monsters keep appearing, and are giving settlers and the military alike a hard time. This has lead to the rise of the Hunters, an independent organization that does its best to keep the monsters in check. But even they, who train in anti-monster tactics and use anti-monster weapons, are slowly but surely being overwhelmed… No one knows why these more powerful monsters are appearing, but if the trends continue, Anacre may be doomed to succumb to the monsters.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]But, some small hope has arisen for the people of Anacre: King Scot Hartium of the kingdom of Malicium [mah-lee-see-um], situated to the southwest and spanning half the continent of Orane [oh-ray-n] has offered to help with the monster issue, promising to eradicate them… on the condition that Malicium scientists be given access to the Bahumian Crystal for study.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]So naturally, desperate to rid his land of the monsters which preyed on his people, King Skilium allowed King Malicium passage to Iralife. It was decided that, as insurance, the Prince of Anacre and the Princess of Malicium be wed and named the rulers of Anacre to prevent possible hostilities between the two.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]And finally, the wedding day came, with King Malicium and his daughter arriving with a military entourage on wedding day. The prince's personal guard, two powerful warriors around his age, stand nearby. Everything was going perfectly as planned, and the princess was preparing to walk the aisle…[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Little did the citizens of Ivalife, and even the princess, know, powerful magitek bombs have been strewn about the capital; snipers wait on standby to assassinate the king and his son; powerful magic casters have disguised themselves as citizens; magitek warships patiently await the order to advance on Iralife. Things are about to get very different for the prince, his fiance, and the good friends that are his guard…[/BCOLOR]

[BCOLOR=transparent]Heya! This was a very quick introduction to the main focus of our roleplay, because if I just did a huge infodump on an interest check and no one was interested, I would have wasted a lot of time! [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Anyway, I ripped the whole "road trip to save a kingdom from an invading force" plot and "modern-slash-near future" setting of Final Fantasy XV. I added and/or adjusted plenty of things, too - for example, the Great Old Ones will be much more akin to Lovecraftian horrors than the mystical deities you've come to expect from Final Fantasy. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Anyway, please tell me if you're interested! And possibly what spot you're interested in. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me, and if you're possibly interested in maybe co-GMing this thing with me, then PM me! [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Once I get 3 people interested, I'm gonna make an OOC. Keep in mind that the characters will be 18, 19, or 20! I'm also hoping for gender parity, although it's not required (female characters would be super nice, just because lots of character applications on Iwaku seem to be for male characters. But it's not required!). I may also open this up to 5 or 6 characters, but I'm not going any higher than that![/BCOLOR]
