Introduction:
The bonds of fate are not bound or set in stone, your choice, your consequences -- The flow of time will be the judge.
In a world of dragons, dwarves, elves and mystical beasts unimaginable to the human mind -- a destructive force has emerged within the confines of time. The world of Izar, where science does not exist, is a world of magic and alchemy. A world of where individuals value skill and honor, where Kings and Queens control.
Fastforward, the world of Epsilon Seven, a world of technology and science. Where machines are sentient, and humans have emerged dominant. Whe world ravaged with misuse of resources, wars due to political mistrust, and sickness due to pollution. A world on the verge of dying.
Heroes of Izar and Individuals of Epsilon Seven, how will you save the world from a threat that reaches beyond the grasps of time?

Ex:
The vast beige horizon covered everything in sight, this was one of the highlights in the agricultural lowlands. What a beautiful scene, a young wanderer thought in his mind. The beauty of this country was something that he loved personally, which was why he decided to become a wanderer.
"Now, where should I go?", he spoke out loud, which had gained the attention of nearby farmers. They looked at him like some crazy foreigner; however, there were no physical differences that would describe him otherwise...
etc.
--------------------- About the RP:
This RP is based off of the Light Novel that I am writing, all story ideas are Intellectual Property of "me". Anything you post here will be your IP as well. The point of this RP is for RPers [Intermediate or Beginner] to learn storytelling elements, adapting to story elements, learning proper grammar and English skills, etc.
After the story RP is finished [if we finish]; I will personally edit every post and turn it into a compilation book. [Which I will post in the Writer's Forum for critique with credit assigned to everyone who participated. Prizes may be given if I've seen much improvement and the fact that I did not have to edit much of the writer's contributions.]

History:
----------------------- The World of Izar -----------------------
The world of Izar was built of the foundation of the lone king, King Apollus I. During the creation of the world, Apollus being the first sentient being on the planet, visited the Guardian of Time, was granted the gift of creation and near immortality to reign over the new world as King. During his Twenty-Six Million years of rule, he has created rivers, trees, mountains, and other sentient life- forms. However, the once immortal king as fallen ill, and the nations of Humans, Elves, and Dragons are fighting for dominance to obtain the King's power and becomes rulers on the planet.
The Human Alliance, the race of men and woman, have always existed, even during the birthing stages of the planet; they were the offspring of the Guardian of Time's power. The Human Alliance inhabits the continent of Burth, and is guided by the Councel of Elders. Humans, being the first species alive on the planet, have grown strong due to their knowledge in metallurgy and magic, creating the strongest economy on the planet.
The race of Elves, being led by a common will, were created when Apollus deemed magic and alchemy necessary in the world. The elven race were a byproduct of the creation power granted by the Guardian of Time. Elves live on the continent of Windswift, a continent covered in fog; and have grown to become a great nation due to their mastery of Alchemy, using alchemy to create all their resources needed by manipulating nature to fulfill their wishes. Not all elves can use magic, however, it is known that the stronger elves can easily master the craft.
The scourge of Dragons, are an evil parasite on the planet; although there are only seven known dragons living on Izar. Each dragon is imbued with the strongest concentration of power, and will leave a trail of destruction if provoked. The dragons have never congregated before the King became ill, but have risen as a major power in order to dominate the planet. It is unknown how the dragons came into existance.
About the Environment: The planet of Izar is quite healthy with lush green forests, and plains. There are many other types of species living in Izar, such as: dwarves, fairies, and trolls; however, they are considered primitive.

----------------------------------------- The World of Epsilon Seven -----------------------------------------
After years of conflict during the Great Wars of Izar, an unknown disaster caused the death of all forms of life. However, a small group of humans had survived this catastrophe and created a new world. Magic, being rendered useless after King Apollus had disappeared and was presumed dead, was forgotten and replaced by science. Humans, being the only dominant species, had engulfed the planet with structures, machines and devices essential to exist in the world.
The world was renamed Epsilon Seven after interstellar space travel was invented, and a planitary naming conventions had been created to determine the location of planets relative to the star they orbit. Control of the planet has been split into two political factions, the Italliani Consortium and the Izarian Collective. Each faction having their own view of how the planet should be controlled.
The Italliani Consortium believe in the advancement of technology in order to survive. Currently, they are the stronger of the two factions, and have the largest military on the planet. The Italliani Consortium also control 80% of all planets known in the universe, and has colonies on 18% of them. The current leader of the Italliani Consortium is Admiral Jenos.
The Izarian Collective believe in restoring Epsilon Seven back into Izar, and believe that research to restore magic and alchemy should be priority. Currently lead by a councel, the Izarian Collective have predicted a second cataclysm and the destruction of the planet. However, when the Izarian Collective openly broadcasted their prediction, they were branded heretics by the Italliani Consortium.
About the environment:
Since the first catalysm, the there were remnants of wildlife on the planet. However, the surviving wildlife could not reproduce causing a great famine for many years. The soil on the planet was slowly decaying and the flora and fauna of the planet eventually disappeared.
Nearing extinction, one lone scientist created a centralized machine that could feed directly into the planet's core. This machine was able to create artifical oxygen and fuel other machines which were created to recycle water, and other nutrients necessary for survival. Humanity was now directly reliant on a single machine.

----------------------------- Preface -----------------------------
"The world, so beautiful... and it's mine!"
In a enormous tower, made of stone, a golden man, standing at the top, gazed at the horizon. The sun was setting, and for some reason, it felt as if it were a sign -- a dark sign.
"Yet I feel I could have so much more....yes..." his voice boomed throughout the tower, "I could have him..."
He motioned his hand towards a large doorway. The door opened, with a large grinding noise as if it were locked down by many heavy locks. Through the doorway, a hooded creature appeared -- this creature did not have a face.
"Yeessss....masssterrr...?" the hooded one asked. "Are the preparations ready?" the golden man inquired. "A-all isss r-ready" the hooded one replied, "I-it jussst needss yourrr touch" "Excellent, I will be there soon" "Yeeessss m-massterrrr"
The hooded one promply left immediately, and a smile appeared on the golden man's face.
"Yes, excellent indeed"
...
Thousands of kilometers away, a councel of men, humans, were gathered together. It was uncommon for the Alliance of Men to gather together because they continent has been at peace for many years. However, the humans have always been insecure creatures, violent creatures, and have been bolstering their forces for many years.
In the room, there were many different men, of all ages and colour. The room was fill with politi- cians and influential noblemen; however, in the centre of the room, a group of five of the eldest men seemed to control the audience.
"Have you heard the news?" the Elder in red asked. "What news?" another replied. "The news about the King" "The King is ill! He's dying!!"
The audience was stunned, for it was abnormal for the king to be ill, let alone dying. The sole ruler of the planet, and it's life itself was the King, Apollus I. During the creation of the planet, he was granted the power of creation in order to nuture the planet; also, he was granted immortality.
"When the King dies, there will be chaos" the Elder in red added. "The elves will take advantage of this! They are closer to the power of creation!" "They'll take the throne!" "Yes.. but we were the first inhabitants of this planet, we are the ones who deserve to rule the planet"
One of the audience members shouted: "Bring them war!!!". Stirring up the room, the audience seemed to agree with the statement. The room started chanting: "Bring them war!!! Bring them hell!!!".
"Quiet! Settle down!" the Elder in red shouted, "this is the council, show some respect!" "I agree with the audience" one of the elders replied. "We will decide through vote -- all in favour of war, stand"
In an instant, the entire room had stood up, even the respected elders.
"Then it is agreed, we will declare war"

[Died. Oh well]
A harsh torrent of wind and water blew over the open battlefield, a crimson water had drenched the once green fields, and lush forests. The dead were scattered among the entire area; some human, some elven. However, no one cared for those who had fallen -- they were busying themselves in an attempt to stay alive in this gruesome battle. Soldiers, knights, magicians and lieutenants, elven and human, all scrambling to defeat the enemy. This battle was the first of many to come, this battle was the one which started it all. Stirred by the belief that the winner would rule the world, the once peaceful land of 'Izar' had never seen death of such massive scale; the humans were the first to attack -- in this aforementioned battle, was the siege of a small peninsula on the North of the Windswift continent. The humans expected to surprise the Elves to gain the advantage by being the first race to cross over to enemy territory; but, word got out, the Elves prepared a coastline fortress made from the land itself using Alchemy as their source of power.
"Flank them from the South!" "Kill them all!"
Shouts of command and anger resounded in the air, this helped motivate the human attackers. A small band of knights had broken through the first line of defense and were heading northbound along the coast, destroying whatever stood in their way. This band of knights were lead by the son of a well known family name, his name was 'Gale de Lesati', the son of the founders of the province 'Raine'. He was a fairly new squad leader but had already gained the rank of Second Lieutenant as word broke out that his squad had finally breached the elven defenses; he himself hadn't even acknowledged his promotion.
"Squad! Destroy their Ballistics!" said the lieutenant, "the mages will be able to land afterwards!"
Gale swung his sword, breaking through the armor of a heavily equipped elf. The elven defense had prepared for a solid defense, maintaining their soldiers with heavy metal armor. This, however, encumbered their movements and had allowed Gale's rogues to swiftly take them out from blind spots. The northern coastline was fairly destroyed after the initial assault. The rocky cliffs and impassible terrain began to tumble down; terrible planning of Alchemy use by a rushed defense was the culprit to blame.

[I just looove RPing by myself. Ugh, using my constraints again.] [No more long dragging posts that are hard to read]
After a few long hours of constant fighting, the humans stood victorious over the northern coast of Windshift. There was a harsh wind blowing throughout the rocky cliffs and fortresses, which made sense for the name of the continent implied the same thing. Gale's team was the first to break through the defenses, second, the Arch Magician Captain Lersus's Squad -- which in fact, broke through with the help of Gale's sneaky rogues being able to destroy the elven Ballistics without being detected.
"Thanks for the help, Lieutenant" said Lersus, "we wouldn't have made it if you guys never made it through." "You're welcome" replied Gale, "it's all in a days work." "I'll be the next one to receive the glory -- remember that." "Oh, so it's a competition now?" "Of course" Lersus enthusiastically replied.
Gale had met Lersus at the Raine Magician's Academy; initially, Gale was attending the academy to become a mage himself. As time went, Gale lost interest in the magics and transferred over to the Grimrock Barracks. At Grimrock, he endure the harsh training that all the soldiers had to take; in mere months, he had become the top student in the entire barracks. Upon his graduation, he was immediately given a squadron of soldiers to manage; the military council had high hoped of the noble son.
Lersus remained in the academy for four years, she also became the top student -- ironically, it was immediately after Gale left; which was probably caused by the fact that Gale was dating Lersus. The two broke up mutually when Gale decided to leave -- which rumors say that Lersus is quite angry from his spontaneous decision.

Hello there...I think the layout is very nice, and alluring as well. I'd like to join, but please enlighten me, the actual Roleplaying takes place when, exactly? Based on the Introduction I got the idea it was to be in Epsilon Seven, but now you're describing the war...Forgive me, for I am confused. Anyways, best of luck! heart

[The roleplaying will go through Izar first, then epsilon seven. That way, you'll see how the world you affect Epsilon Seven with the actions of your character]
