This game is based on the idea of the Morag Tong Assasin's guild from Morrowind in that they are a guild whose executions are legal. This does not mean that all assinations are just however. Whoever has the money can pay for someone to be killed with some exceptions. You are all initiates into this guild about ready to become full fledged members/


A bit of history
This takes place in the city of Asylum. Asylum is the only city on this continent. 300 years prior civilized people lived all over the place until the Elves got into a huge war with the Drow and another humanoid species called the Taram another species from the Underdark. With the help of the humans they pushed them back into the Mountains of Stivel. It looked as if defeat were inevitable for the Drow and Taram until they found an entrence into the dwarven tunnels. The Dwarves were never heard from again and for a long time it was thought that the Drow, Taram, and Dwarves killed each other off. a century later an enormous army flooded out of the mountains. Neither Drow nor Taram the two races seem to have bred out a monstrous creature someone named the Dram. They laid waste to half a dozen cities and razed them to the ground. People did survive and they went to warn others. When word reached the ciry of Arkchil they offered santuary to all refuges and asked the other cities to evacuate as well. When everyone had arrived and the army of Arkchil had been fortified most of the people in the city men women and even some of the older children began working on a giant stone wall.

The Wall is mostly circular is 150 miles in diameter. The walls are 200 feer high the walkways are 30 feet wide and some of the battlements are another 100 feet high and wide many sections of the walls themselves have barracks built into them where the White Guard live. When the wall was finished 50 years later almost all the people of the continent had moved there. There are still some very small viliages and a few nomadic tribes but they are few and far between. Another 50 years later someone mentioned that they felt like they lived in an Asylum and the name spread like wildfire it changed so gradually that most people didn't even notice the change. Nowadays Asylum has taken on a meaning of safety from the outside world or the Dark Lands. Population of Asylum is around 20 million and is ruled by an Oligarchy of Lord's and Ladys as well as an elected body of Knights

Other Organizations

The White Guard: They are the police and militia of Asylum. There is corruption among them but for the most part they are beloved by all the non criminal element of the city and even by many of them. Easily recognizable by their white uniforms and even white armor. All races and classes are represented in the white guard.

The White Guard Elite: The Elite are distinguisable from their brethren in two ways their white uniforms are made from enchanted silk which is indestructable (but provides no bonus to armor) and self cleaning. Also their coat of arms is black with a white star on a shield where the normal White Guard's is blue The Elite are the best of the best and it is a huge honer just to be selected for training let alone graduate from it. All clases and races are also represented here. The training grounds for the White Guard and their elite branch is a very large closed off patch a land that few ever see.

The Talon: While there are many thieves guilds in the city this is the largest and most successful. Very little is known about their inner workings though

there are several otehr guilds within the cities including Adventurers, Merceneries, Fighters, Mages, etc...


Characters are level 1

4d6 drop lowest take lowest score and make it 18 if you still have any scores under 10 you can reroll them. (trust me you will need this if you have to fight an elite)

Gold is 300 + 1 masterwork item weapon or armor total cost must be under 450 gold

Races: all core except dwarves, psionic are fine, Monster races must be approved for obvious reasons and no race may have an LA

Classes: All core and psionic. anything else must be approved as i don't have access to much. Yes paladins are acceptable as these are lawful executions but it doesn't matter if they are or not. which brings me to my next item

Deity's: Feel free to make them up since the gods have little to no influence in this world...which also means that alignment is nothing if you want a true neutral paladin or whatever feel free.

any other questions just ask

two questions, on the 450 gold max is that just for the MW weapon or for all of our equipment? and what languages are spoken? and this is everything but what I just asked about.

its the max on your masterwork weapon or armor the 300 is your gold for normal items

(the weapon or armor is a gift for making it this far into the order)

common is prevelant but there are other languages except for dwarvish(unless you are a histroy buff or a pelentoligist) all other languages are fine.
