Welcome to the world of Elym...
...a world that has for aeons struggled vainly in an endless fight for existence. The very laws of his world are being torn apart, while its inhabitants sit unaware. Distracted by their own petty politics, the mortal races of Elym are separated and spread thin. They fight daily to ensure the survival of their ideals, but none are conscious of their true enemy, an enemy erased from time itself, and enemy that prepares to consume them all.
These are the heroes destined to stand against that evil. They are special mortals, chosen by the God's to wield the only power capable of striking down the hidden threat that tears at the walls of existence and prepares to absorb Elym into itself in a quest to create an eternal void. However, these heroes do not know of their destiny, for their journey is a young one and not all has yet been revealed to them..
Greetings, I am Ner0, creator and Gm to the Role play you have just now stumbled upon. This role play is detailed and extensive. It will be long lived, well written, and beautiful in every way. This is its official sign up thread and will operate as an introductionary platform to the characters of this world. I will not be accepting more than four players, one of which will fill a co-gm position. I have currently tentatively filled 2 of those 4 positions. I originally intended for this role play to be by invitation only, however, the release date inches ever closer and the pressure of that reality has made me cave. Sign ups are now open. Again, 2 slots are available (one of them is the Co-Gm position), so please, venture forward as I explain the premise of this Roleplay:
Chapter I: Beyond The Mountain
Elym is a large world with many continents, terrains, and cultures dotting its surface. Long ago this world was scorched with the fires of war. Dragons, beings created by the God's were pitted against one another in a 100'000 year struggle during a time of youth and ignorance for both the God's and this world. The lesser mortals, beings given life without godly intervention, were driven to the edge of extinction. In an attempt to save the lives of these beings the God's collaborated to create a land far from the fiery shores of Elym proper. This land was separated from the rest of Elym by the power of the God's and a small amount of diverse mortal beings were moved to it. The named it Caer'Htoma. It operated as a compacted Elym and in the many hundreds of thousands of years that have followed since arriving the mortals her have developed a complex culture that is forever evolving.
The Humans and their allies control the western half of the continent. They are locked in a seemingly endless religious struggle with The Orcen, a collection of diverse tribes that hail from the Eastern half of this land. Both sides have their justifications for continuing this conflict and neither could be dubbed as good or evil.
Between both powers lies The Lotys State. This nation sells its military as mercenaries to both sides as necessary. It is a place where all are accepted and where your worth is decided by what you bring home in your pockets for the nation. All races have those who view this as an opportunity to strike out on great adventure and you are one of these hopefuls. For whatever reason you do not see eye to eye with your people and now find yourself striking out to Join the Lotys State military in hopes of fame, splendor, and adventure. All of which can be yours, only you can make that a reality however, and it will be your decisions that shape the future of Caertohma as you know it..
Note: This is simply a vague explanation of the premise of this role play, once your interest is expressed I shall approach you and reveal to you everything you need to know upon acceptance.
