I don't know whether I am actually allowed to post this or not, considering I am new here, but I had a Role-play idea that I wanted to share.
If anyone is interested by the end, then please let me know.

My story is about a gang of rogues in the Arabic Desert. Their leader is a man named Fahd, his title is Emir; which means Commander or Prince. Though this band of raiders will sweep through villages and oasis alike they follow a code laid down by their leader. No harming children, no slavery, and no forcing themselves upon women.
During one of these raids a new member of the group kidnaps a young boy when he realizes that he is a Si'lat Djinn; selling one to the Slave Traders would fetch a very good price. Fahd is not pleased but there is no returning the boy once he had been found, or they would be killed by his parents. So he decides to take care of this child and teach him how to speak Arabic, rather than the strange language of the Djinn.

The Si’lat are expert shape-shifters and the most intelligent of the Djinn. They can mimic human appearance with ease and grow fifteen times slower than a human.

If anyone is interested I was hoping that I could find someone to play Fahd, the men, and women, from the gang of raiders. I have a few more ideas for plot expansion, but if no one is interested then they won't matter.

The accepted races for the characters are Djinn other than the Si'lat or any of the man-eating kinds, which can be found here; http://www.djinnuniverse.com/types-of-djinn
Humans, and other Arabic Mythology based species.

Post it buddy.
Seriously we have a lot of people working on getting people into our guild as it kinda died down from what I understand.
Post your idea up. I would personally be interested in watching what becomes of it.
Invite people outside of the guild.
Let us be a part of the world you Invision.

I just joined Gaia today, since my sister said it was a fairly good place to role-play. Though it looks like I'll have to be a lot less graphic than I usually am. lol

This sounds really interesting. I think it's a good idea.

Thank you. I'll see about putting it up as a Group Role-play. But I warn you; I am terrible at Coding. So it won't be looking very fancy. lol

                          You can ask and I'm sure someone would be willing to code it for you.

That would be wonderful. I can do some basic HTML, but not very much BB.
Can you reccomend someone to me?

                          Don't post in your RP thread quite yet and I'll try to get something made for you that isn't complete trash before the day is out.

                          And if you don't like what I can do, then yeah, I can probably find you someone else to do code/graphics.

Haha, well I do at times enter this fleshy suit. Probably one week each month.
And in the spirit of Halloween, I am some sort of demonic sheep goddess with a cult. Dun worry I have a nicer meat suit, one that doesn't harvest people.
I'll turn into my fluffy self soon.

Ah well. I had best go be a animible until you turn back so that I don't have to worry about being eaten.

There he lived with two older brothers, his mother, and his father. Their life was peaceful and uneventful. The young Djinn spent his days lazing in the sun, bathing in clear pools of water, and reading from his father’s scrolls. While his nights were spent memorizing the positions of the stars and hearing his father tell the stories of the constellations while they sat around the bonfire outside their home tent. At this time Kadir, lovingly called Shihab by his mother, was only two-hundred and forty years of age. A teenager of about fifteen years of age. Though, to the Djinn, he was still considered an infant.

On a night when the sky was obscured by clouds, his family went to bed earlier than usual. Because of the strange feeling in the air Kadir woke and left the tent to go sit by the small pond just a short walk away. Playing beside the water, chilled by desert moon, he heard a sound coming from the direction of the dunes. Staring out at the sand he remained still as the thundering grew closer. The cloud cover shifted and revealed thirty horsemen galloping in the direction of the oasis. Staring in horrified fascination the young Djinn was rooted to the spot he stood.

When the horses crossed into the grass of the oasis the boy turned to flee, but it was too late. One of the horsemen reached down and grabbed him by his hair, dragging him for a time before the horse slowed and the man dropped him, squalling, to the ground. A few of the men stopped and spoke angry words at the man who had hurt him. But it was in a language he didn't understand. They seemed to argue for a few moments before another rider came back to see what the problem was.

Rising from the ground where he had fallen he began crying and trying to crawl away in desperation. Sliding off of the horse the most recent man came over to him and gripped his shoulder tight, stopping him from moving farther. Speaking the same language as the rest of them he said something in a jovial tone and the others laughed. For a moment he thought that they might have made a mistake and where apologizing. Shyly he tried to move away but the man's hand just dug into his shoulder tighter, until it began to hurt. Wincing he tried to pry the man's hand off of his shoulder to no avail.

From that point he can't remember exactly what happened. He remembered being struck and then nothing. Not until two days later when he woke tied to a pack horse so that he wouldn't fall off. Scared, and not knowing what had happened, he tried to babble at the nearest person. After a glare and a loud bark from the man the young Djinn decided it was better to stay quiet. One of the men yelled and Kadir finally began looking around. While sitting on top of the horse he could see for quite a ways. Sweeping his eyes from the front to the back he realized he was in the middle of a Caravan train.

This is where our story begins: a young Si'lat Djinn, taken from his home in the middle of the night, and kept captive by the Commander of, what he believes, to be a vicious horde of raiders.

This is loosely based in the Arabian Desert, more information can be found here; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabian_Desert though I will be adding different Cities and Oasis myself later.

In case you want to use your own forum rules, that's what this is:

You know, if you want to post thread rules.[/size]


And, of course, if you hate it, I can find you someone better.
x'D
I just don't charge to do this.

Edit: I can also resize pics and the like.
I wasn't paying attention to how bit they were when I was doing them... oops
