Humanity is the greatest group of fools the world has ever known. You crawl in the mud and dub yourselves kings and queens of the dirt. You play at power as if you have any idea what the word means. You think your magic makes you strong? You think your kingdoms make you safe? We could sweep away your cities. We have. And yet you dare to send your emissaries to stop us, as if they have any chance of doing so. Know this, though: Evraius is our domain. This is our realm, and the moment they enter it they are ours. They cannot stop us. You cannot stop us. You shall watch them climb our mountain but as you wait in vain for them return it shall slowly become clear to you who the gods of this world truly are.

 

Introduction

 

Hey there folks, MDSVeritas here. I've been known for some of my previous original RPs The Experiment and Echoes and Ash. I like original ideas and RPs that push strong character involvement and development with a solid setting and plot to boot. As such I've developed a new RP concept in the way of Evraius. There's a plot intro below you can read, but for a quick explanation, Evraius is an original fantasy RP focusing on magic and godhood.For those familiar with my RPs it is my hope to return to more of the open-ended possibilities of The Experiment while still maintaining a sense of direction so that we can tell an awesome story together. You can read the plot intro and rules below and apply as soon as possible!

 

Plot

 

The world has always had magic since as early as any person can remember or any book will tell. Many cannot make great use of it, but some people are able to funnel their magic potential into elemental abilities, brute force, at-will-creation and much more. With these abilities as a baseline human civilization has flourished all over the world. The greatest example of this is in the largest kingdom in the world: Teragren, which has lived in relative peace for decades. Teragren takes up most of the primary continent that makes up the world, with the other two major forces being the smaller-but-tough Republic of Fenduril and the notorious and closed off Military State of Vedik. Through magic human civilization has flourished.

 

Magic is not the only thing that has existed for as long as one can remember, however.

 

Within the borders of Teragren, in a closed off no-entry zone is the singular mountain known as Evraius. Evraius is, from appearance, an absolutely normal mountain, with forests, rocky outcroppings, and sheer cliffs. The significance of Evraius is those who live there: the Kamyn. Meteor storms, floods, sudden destruction on the scale of an entire city; the Kamyn are capable of all of these, and they have done each at least once. Some call the Kamyn gods, but their power has only ever brought destruction. Villages, cities, and sometimes small countries can be wiped out easily by the Kamyn. Their actions come only every few years, but like clockwork they return. Some hail them, but every major country has stuck to neither acting against them nor commending them. What the Kamyn want, how they came about, and even just who they are is mostly unknown.

 

The Kamyn have only communicated to the human countries through their supposed leader: Adriev, who has appeared as a fully robed humanoid figure who proclaims the actions of the Kamyn just before they occur. It is speculated there are only 3 or 4 Kamyn total if that.

 

In the past year, though, one of the main cities of Teragren, was completely leveled with a meteor storm brought about by the Kamyn. Now for the first time humanity is acting out against them. Teragren's king has called out for any volunteer to step forward to try to bring an end to the Kamyn. Due to the uneasy terrain of Evraius no army can traverse it, so it must be adventurers who step forward to attempt the task. These people have assembled from various places and for various reasons, but to defeat to the Kamyn they must come to know each other, and trust each other through the trials ahead.

 

One problem though. Among the traveling party is suspected to be one or more assassins hired by the Military State of Vedik to steal the powers of the Kamyn and kill all who get in the way, including the other adventurers. The Kamyn have their own ideas too...

 

Summary: In a fantasy world of magic potential a group of volunteer soldiers climbs the mountain of the gods to topple the cruelest deities you've ever known.

 

Rules

 

--One character per person is recommended, two characters is the max. This is a story about character's interacting in a story that involves them all, so I'm trying to keep the interaction between players, not just between characters of one player.

--Romance is totally fine, just nothing above a PG-13 level.

--The potency of your magic power is up to your discretion but I have final say and powers needs to be balanced.

--No assuming any action for another player. Leave every attack you do open to whether it hits or not. On the same vein, do not make your character super strong, fast, or powerful that they cannot be beaten. Take some hits sometimes.

--You may only post three times in the RP between when I post. For example; if I make a post about what goes on, you may only post three times until I post again. This is to keep the RP at a fair pace for everyone.

--Try to keep out of character discussion in this thread so the RP thread won't get too bogged down.

 

 

 

Character Creation

 

Sound interesting? Good, because it gets better. More than just having all players against an NPC character I control, I wanted to get more player-to-player interaction, even in the story. So along with being one of the few who is set to climb Evraius, you can also choose two other options: to be one of the Kamyn or on of the Vedik spies. Here's some simple parameters for the three possibilities.

 

Kamyn

Slots open: 0 Left (With enough signups, I will add another Kamyn slot)

Role Description: You will work with me and other Kamyn players to impede the climbers through direct combat, environment challenges, or impossible choices. You will also get the top-secret info on who the Kamyn truly are and why they have their powers immediately as opposed to learning it through the RP like the others do.

 

Spy

Slots open: ???

Role Description: You will act as a climber until the time you feel it is right to make your move against the Kamyn and Climbers. If you want to be a spy, please put "Climber" as your role and message me, that way you won't be sure who to trust. I also won't reveal how many, if any, spies there are

 

Climber

Slots open: Infinite

Role Description: You are one of the volunteers who will attempt to climb Evraius and topple the Kamyn who have ruled the world with fear for too long. Your reasons are your own.

 

I've created on original fantasy world here, so feel free to get creative when designing your character's backstory, don't be afraid to think outside the box.

 

Template

 

Name:

 

Magic Ability: (Get creative and I'll work to keep it balanced. Feel free to step up the power level for a Kamyn)

 

Backstory: (Leave blank for a Kamyn)

 

Appearance:

 

Role: (Climber or Kamyn. Write Climber and message me to possibly be a Spy)

 

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well there you have it. I know this is by far by longest RP OP, but I wanted to try something unique, different, and interesting, and I felt like it could use some world building to do so. I'm hoping this RP will be an awesome story that I can help to tell with a lot of input and surprises from you guys! Hope to see you all soon!

Didn't Efenton survive as well? Also, I'm pretty sure Ferro is dead. Or at least, he is according to one of Riki's posts.

Anyone whom had not been seen in action on my end was presumed dead.

Same here. So, should they be around for the group reunion, or should we assume they died in one of the later battles for dramatic effect? Personally, I think it would be pretty cool if only five of the climbers survived. It would help make the fact that they survived seem even more remarkable.

 

Oh yeah... are we going to be doing a time skip? Assuming that we are, as that would make sense, approximately how long will it be? And will there be two separate ones, one for our personal epilogues, and one for the reunion?

 

(As this IS the first time I've ever actually done something like this, I'd just like to be sure, as obvious as these questions may be.)

Same here man. Unless anyone has a problem with that, I think were doing a personal epilogue followed by a reunion epilogue. As far as how much further in the future the reunion takes place, how about ten years. I think that would give all of the survivors plenty of time to settle into a new occupation if they wanted, start a family, etc. Does that sound good to everyone?

Okay, so ten years for the reunion... Then I'll place my epilogue right in the middle, five years later! That is, once everyone else has had a say.

Okay, 10 years later for the reunion. How bout it takes place in a rebuilt city. Y'know the one that the Kamyn destroyed pre-RP.

 

and I'll cry for the fallen that I wanted to keep alive *sniffle*

I'm gonna go tell riku to post so that my bae Cornelius doesn't die.

O-o

What? Cornelius is a fantastic character, and one of few that my precious Doctor actually developed with. I would much prefer he not die. Besides, he is kind of adorable.

Don't tempt me, Yuffie.

No yaoi Riki.

No yaoi Riki.

I meant more like YuffieXCornelius.

None of that either. I don't fall in love with fictional characters. I can enjoy them a lot, like Nikolai Lantsov, Hiroki Sugimura, Doctor Pellinore Warthrop, and Day, but no love. Never that far.

I'm just teasing you.

Ah, that's fine. Just thought I'd make a note of that. Put that down as noncanon ship if you want.

 

Actually, I haven't looked at your profile. Did you update it with a full list of current ships yet?

I haven't been able to update my profile in a long time. It takes a log of typing, and typing is dificult die to my current health situation.

Hey guys, just a note for anyone who hasn't posted or who may want to post again; tomorrow at 2:00pm is the final deadline for epilogue posts to be posted. After that I'll be putting in the official final post.

Edited November 23, 201410 yr by MDSVeritas

I'll get it done.

So reunion after MDS's post?

That would appear to be the case! It makes the most amount of sense. 

I'm haunting you all ~OuO~

DONT CROSS THE STREAMS!

............Cross 'em..............

And just like that, ladies and gents, it's done! I can't thank you all enough to telling this story with me and coming along for the ride. There were ups and downs, and a lot of awesome and badass moments, and now finally we can draw Evraius to a close. Feel free to add more reunion epilogue stuff, but as of now the RP story has been officially told!

 

I can't wait to see you guys around the forums more and I'll hopefully have another RP ready before too long. Until then, I'll be around this thread for more shenanigans, so have at!

I laughed, I cried, I ate a whole gallon of ice cream.
