Hello everybody, I've been kicking around the idea of starting an rp lately and I wanted to see if there was any interest in this kind of thing. I haven't actually made the story for the rp yet, but that's only because I wish to have people interested in this rp before I go through the trouble of making the setting and characters.

I have a couple of ideas for the setting, but the main theme is that there will be some kind of war going on in the country, whether it be with a neighboring country or a revolution that has risen from the populace. I'd like to have most of the characters relatively close to one another so it will mostly focus on the warzone of a city that is under siege or the outskirts of said city where multiple skirmishes have happened.

I haven't decided on the role that magic will play, but I'm thinking it will be like most fantasy settings in that it is powerful for those that know what they are doing, but not everyone has that kind of control and skill to harness it properly. We could also possibly have a rebellion by non-magic users against those that use magic to suppress the people. Let me know what you think and reply to this topic if you're interested. Thanks!
Magic 70%
Magic is fairly common. Players and NPCs important to the tale may have it. Mistborn.
Technology 30%
Renaissance
Combat 60%
Combat is woven into the storyline and could come to the forefront if the characters seek it out.

Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.

This sounds really interesting I'm interested in it.

Alright, I'm going to wait for at least two more people before I set anything up. Any thoughts on the actual setting, what sounds best to you?
This looks interesting! You can take a look at my characters and tell me if any of them would work, they're mostly humanlike animals.
Me too

@Bronzewing Just pick whichever you feel most comfortable with, as long as they are mostly anthropomorphic they're fine.

It seems there is a decent amount of interest in this, I'm going to write up a setting and a character tomorrow because its getting a bit late for me. If anyone else wishes to join then don't hesitate to ask.

I'll either post the setting here or send it in a pm, whichever y'all prefer.
I'm good with it being on here, although I also have no issues with PM. And yeah, they're mostly anthropomorphic, so they should be good.
Can I join?

Yes you may.

I'll use my warrior character
Is there still open space? I'm very interested.
If you're still looking for people, I have a knight I've been wanting to use.
MordosKull

Also checking if there's space. I needs me some battle!

@MordosKull, Spiteful and floatch, welcome aboard! I think I'm willing to take one more person, don't want this to get too big.

Okay I've been thinking about the setting a bit so here's what I got:

The rising power, The Principality of Astren has recently begun expanding their territory outwards. The Principality was originally just a hegemony of the Espian Empire, but has received recognition by the Espian Emperor as its own separate entity. After gaining independence the Astren Principality immediately attacked its neighboring country, the Brionia Confederacy. This was a long and brutal war, neither side seemed to gain any ground at first, but the Principality's use of magic tipped the scales. The Brionian's had mages, but none quite so infamous as those fielded by the Principality. The war was ended when the Principality was finally able to capture the Brionian capital Boln.

Although the war was won by the Principality they have not gained full control of the people yet, many Brionian's meet in secret, trying to find a way to overthrow the foreign invaders. In the capital, things are as tense as they can be, the Principality of Astren regularly holds military parades through the streets in order to frighten the populace, but this only strengthens the rebels resolve.

Basically the rp will be held in Boln, you will have the choice of being a Brionian, apart of the Principality of Astren or a traveler from some other land. At first their will be no open combat, but early on the Brionian's will revolt, causing your character to choose a side. Here is some information I would like y'all to fill out about your characters.

Country: (Astren, Brionian or other)
Occupation: (You can put anything here, hell if someone wants to be a former Brionian official then that'd be fine too. Ex, my character will be an Astren mage in the military.)
Loyalty: (Will this character side with the rebellion or the Astren Principality?)

Oh and just to keep things simple, the Astren military will follow the U.S military's rankings. I don't feel like making a whole ranking system lol.
Great! Do you want us to put this here or just message you?

Just put it here for now, I'll be setting the rp up as a pm so do this using the character profile you wish to rp as.
Country: Brionian
Occupation: Knight
Loyalty: Rebellion
Just like that?

Country: England
Occupation:Warrior and bodyguard
Loyalty: Rebellion

@Spiteful Yup, he sounds cool! Sounds like a good foil to Celestine! Approved.

@Foxy Approved.

Also just to make it clear, everyone will be in Boln for this rp. I'm not sure if I outlined this properly, I've been a little scatterbrained today so apologies if my ideas aren't coming across clearly.
