THE War OF UNGAR Brought to you by Birm123,XBobTheTigerX, and Xyrial.
---
The Land of Ungar has been pulled into a deadly world war that has lasted since the turn of the century, fourty years ago.
Many years ago, a single kingdom had been formed through the drought and famine which once swept over the lands, leaving families to weep for loved ones whom were taken by hunger and thirst. An organization had come together to create a new country from the shambles where lay the tattered and starving lands, weaving a new order little by little. The population helped to build up this nation, which eventually became what is now known as Alpe. There is more to this story, however what was once publicly known and recorded was lost, only to be found in places of great knowledge. And even then, records are shimmery and untrustworthy. Ancient legends also may explain the creation and formation of this land, however nothing can be confirmed.
Alpe is known to be the home of all, one of the few nations that welcome all, no matter what race they are. There are two representatives from each race, and a single king to rule them all, named Luthais.
Of course, within the Land of Ungar, any relationship between two countries previously hostile was fragile. Peace never lasted long, and therefore, a conflict had arisen. However, unlike anything experienced before, this conflict was unbearable. Something out of the ordinary, and something that would require the combined efforts of Alpe's people. War was suddenly declared by the Crosyth Empire, a nation currently involved in its own desparation. History between the two was perceived and recorded to be strained, countless wars sparking throughout their nations and causing the two to clash, normally ending with a horrid occurance, such as murdered Royalty, or endless suffering.
And so the war began; one side believing all should be equal and the other a bloodthirsty coalition of countries, believing that those that do not agree with them must be destroyed in order to bring the world into one banner. However, while the people fought, they did not realize that their excessive use of magic was stirring something that had not been seen since the age of the original elves, something so powerful that even the mighty Gods bowed down to.
---RACES---
There are five races in the land of Ungar.
Human: Humans are similar to the goblins in personality; they are stubborn and believe all other races to be below them. In human villages other races are restricted from doing things humans can do, which is why the humans are the most hated of the races. However, out of all of the races, humans are known to have the most freedom within their own kind.
Dwarf: Short, fat, and aggresive, these greedy and stubborn creatures are the best warriors in the land as well as the best smiths. They live in the darkest and coldest crevices, in caves and mountains.
Elf: Elves are generally tall and proud with years and years of arcane knowledge. Elves are almost impossible to tell from humans in appearance except for their pointed ears.They are the oldest and wisest of the species, believing that all of the races should be united under one banner rather then seperated. While most prefer to be on the sidelines, there are many that are quite skilled at long ranged combat.
Goblin: The goblins are similar to the dwarves;short, greedy, and stubborn. Despite this they have the largest knowledge of building machines and other constructs. They are skilled in magic relating to engineering and stealth combat. Most goblins are never to be trusted, and believe themselves to be above others. They include some of the wealthiest population, just behind the dwarves.
Orcs: Strong, stupid, large, and green. That is all there could be said to describe the orcs. Most aren't good at magic however it is possible for them to learn from. They are the most powerful of the races and have massive war machines of destruction, most of the time bought from the goblins.
-COMBAT- Combat is decided upon d20 dice rolls and the race of the character in combat in order to keep it fair..Characters WILL die.
-ADMINS- Birm123 - Wrote most of the thread and came up with the original idea. XBobTheTigerX-Wrote the "Races" section Xyrial - Wrote most of the plot and overlooked the rest of the roleplay.
-RULES- 1.Romance will be allowed at your own risk.
2.What I say goes, there's no use complaining about a character death unless it makes no sense whatsoever. Put "The Monster" in other.
3.No meta-gaming,god modding, power playing, etc.
4.Characters who are inactive for a week without any specifified reason will be banned. If you won't be online because of school work or family issues, please try to contact me first.
5.Characters don't have to be soldiers.
6.All characters are in the same nation for the sake of simplicity.
7.There is different types of magic, such as fire, ice, sound, etc. This is fairly straightforward, it is expected that everyone plays fair with this as we believe an entire section regarding the types is not necessary.

Humans are self explanitory.
Elves probably live the longest, probably living up to thousands of years for the eldest ones.
Dwarves probably live longer than humans but shorter than elves, maybe about a hundred and fifty years on average.
Orcs, no idea.
Goblins probably even less than a human's.
These are honestly just my estimations though. |

-CHARACTER SHEET- Name: Alexa Thorngarde Age: 24 in human years. Gender: Female Race: Elf
Appearance: http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/010/9/7/elf_archer_by_agregor-d5r102s.png
Magic: Alexa studies in the art of Enchantments. She is able to enchant an item at will, allowing her weapons to temporarily become infused with various forms of magic. She masters in the art of life-draining enchantments, allowing her to steal the life of others and heal herself slightly.
Biography: Alexa was born and raised in forests, far from the cities of man, elf, or dwarf. She learned to hunt and fish at a young age, using the trees near her home to scout the area for game. It was rare that her family left their home, but when food was scarce, trips had to be made. Alexa usually joined her parents on these trips, travelling miles to reach cities, typically human ones. Alexa had always enjoyed those trips, no matter how rude the humans were to her family. In her 'teenage' years, Alexa's parents began to leave Alexa at home during those trips to watch the house. This disappointed Alexa at first, but she got over it after the first couple trips. After one trip, Alexa found herself alone in the house for longer than usual. She waited days for her parent's return, then weeks, then months. Alexa left the house after the fifth month. She has traveled the towns and forests of Alpe as a hunter and sellsword ever since.
Other: The Monster is man, he who searches for war. |

(I know, I know. I just want to repost so I don't have to look between two different threads for my character.)
-CHARACTER SHEET- Name: Sierac Stoul
Age: 31, though he does look older due to his scars.
Gender: Male
Race: Human... Though people often question that since he doesn't have the superiority of his race.
Appearance: Tall and lean, Sierac has a tanned complexion completed with deep black hair that curls and a beard only around his chin. Three different scars, one across his forehead, another down his left cheek to the chin and a third running along his nose to his lip, all cross his face. Wearing a earthly green cloak around a black shirt with a leather vest, he takes the look of a mercenary. That look is completed with a sword around his waist in a sheath. He carries a staff, not for magic but to help his limb and even more scars lie under his clothing. His eyes, a light hazel, dart back and forth with a mixture of fear and danger.
Biography: Sierac Stoul's childhood of a poor family in a mining town, he spent most of his life around human townspeople and the dwarven miners. His father's family was actually a minor nobility with their own title, but were thrown from honor by accusations of deadly magic that contributed to many deaths. His father hid his identity and his family's name, but not well enough. In his early teens, attackers raided his house and kidnapped both him and his father. So began years of imprisonment for this trumped up accusation. At the age of twenty eight, he was finally released.
The imprisonment, in which his father died halfway through from the torture, fueled his paranoia and over-extreme cautiousness. But it also sharpened his will to the point that even death couldn't break him. He lived this far, he's not giving up just because you lead a army against him.
Magic: A special little type of magic he learned, one that involves his own soul for power*. But otherwise, he has none.
Other: The Monster
*I will elaborate if needed. Basically, he uses a part of his soul to strengthen his weapon while fighting.*

-CHARACTER SHEET- Name: Caractus Acarino Age: 372 Gender: Male Race: Elf Appearance: Caractus is an average size elf, who has all the elven physical appearance. Slender physique, vulpine facial features, with arresting grey eyes, and raven-black hair. Caractus is a spy for the elven army so he does not wear the traditional elven armor. Instead, when travelling wears tight black-leather armor. However, he is more of a infiltrating type of spy who goes to the balls thrown, and would wear robes given to him by his superiors. Biography: Caractus is in no sense poor, and made it through the drought and famine without worry. But the war has taken an effect on his mood, and on his family. His wife whom he was married to for 164 human years died in one of the attacks on his homeland two years ago. Caractus earned his wealth from his previous life as a spy for Alpredat, and has since the death of his wife returned to it. Currently his mission is to invade Alpe, and collect as much information as possible. However, his memory of his wife is giving a change of heart how he actually wants to help these people, so he is split with following orders or not. Other: The Monster |

-CHARACTER SHEET- Name: Suzanna Mey Age: 23(in appearance) Gender: Female Race: Elf Appearance: http://gyazo.com/fd3b9327e2e029b1e181910d212f1ff9 Biography: A fool all around, Suzanna NEVER speaks of the earlier half of her life, she claims she was in prison if asked enough though, and now usually is a bandit in the woods, using her innocent appearance to easily rob people, by looking injured, and asking for help...then just force them down and wait. This is most likely the reason she was imprisioned earlier. Other: The Monster
