Prologue: [ I'm working on it >.> ]

The Plot as it now stands...

It is the nine thousandth year since humankind appeared/evolved on the planet and they are now in a state of moratorium -- being too cautious to destroy themselves, but too reckless to stop destroying everything else.

The Asteris arrived in recent years and have been trying their best to help the humans to advance at least in intelligence, but the humans are intimidated by their attempts to teach them and believe the Asteris are trying to enslave them, thus the humans have declared war on these peaceful visitors. Sworn to their goal, the Asteris refuse to fight the humans, but will only defend themselves in battle.

The spirits of the Transcendants, who had lived their lives and died long ago, were awakened by the perilous state of the planet. A planet they used to protect with everything they had, and the Transcendants have managed to return to protect it once more, using the only methods they know. They feel that the humans have lost their pride and are now unworthy to rule the planet.

Once strong allies with the humans, the Chibarro now despise them with all of their being and constantly siege the humans in an attempt to save the planet's other life forms such as plants and animals.

The Vraida were once forbidden to interfere with human actions, but have broken that sacred law to try to bring peace to the planet once more.

Available Races in this RPG

The Asteris
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.
A physically and mentally evolved version of humans, although they come from another planet [and thus are technically aliens]. They are not bearers of magic, but are lovers of all things intellectual. The Asteris are generally good fighters although they will use mostly defensive movements, as violence is not their goal: they have come to help advance the humans

The Transcendants
User Image
Ancient human beings who still wield magic from times long past. Their beliefs are noble if not primitive and their mastery of the brutal governmentship is unmatched. The Transcendants are, however, extremely stubborn and overly prideful

The Humans
User Image
A fearful and aggressive race, they have not lived up to their full potential. They have reached a plateau in advancement, their own usless wars between themselves holding them back

The Chibarro
User Image
These are the guardians of the flora and fauna. Not quite human, not quite animal, they watch over and protect nature in hopes of preserving it for all time. The Chibarro fighting style is geared more towards martial arts.

The Vraida
User Image
A winged species of human that live in a city above the clouds. The more powerful members of their species have more wings -- the elder of the Vraida nation has 6 wings. They are pacifists, so it is no surprise that they cannot and will not reduce themselves to violence

exclaim Rules exclaim Also know as thy Commandments of this thread

1 Thou shall not god mode

2 Thou shall be active unless thou has given notification of absence

3 Thou shall not make half-breed characters. There is a reason for this to be revealed later in the plot.

4 Thou shall be literate. Occasional misspellings or typos are okay, but no "Sandra wehnt to teh stowr an got an aple" I trust those kind of Rpers were not accepted into the guild.

5 If thou must edit a post, do it before someone responds to it. Once a response is posted, you're stuck with what you wrote.

6 Thou shall be free to make side stories and events, but try not to stray too far from the major plot.

7 More rules may be added at anytime M u s e sees fit

The Character List

Character name: Daviita Reine Paxtos

Character age: 29

Gender: female

Race: Vraida

Description or picture:
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.
In addition to those two main wings, Daviita has two small ones budding at the small of her back.

Personality: Ambitious to a fault, Daviita has the misfortune to also be stubborn and known for her occasional rudeness. From a young age she declared that her life-long goal would be to bring peace; if not to the world, then at least between the humans and Chibarro in particular.

History: Daviita is a council member in Bauchenur and has been one for ten years. Raised as a commoner, her lifestyle is unchanged due to the strict belief of equality in her society, although this limits only her wealth and does not affect her power. As a young child Daviita was very scholarly and made little time for anything but academics. Perhaps that is the reason she is very intelligent but has little wisdom or people skills, even at her age.

*Locations, Landmarks, Important People*

Locations --

Rhyia [Ree-ya] More or less the capital city in all the land. It is also, of course, the most advanced of the cities. Despite that fact, Rhyia does not boast the highest population

Bauchenur [Ba-shoo-nur]The city above the clouds where the Vraida live. It spans the length of the entire world, has the lowest population of all cities, and disappears at night to all but the Vraida

Amadonogg [A-ma-do-nog] One of the underground towns of the Chibarro. By nature, this race prefers to live spaciously and it is unknown whether or not the Chibarro actually have any cities at all

Landmarks --

none yet

People --
Luka, elder of the Vraida. He rules by delegation and is rarely seen but often heard from. His people look up to him

more will be added as the story progresses
