§-You Must Read-§ ®All you really need to read is the plot and you should skim through the places this role-play takes place in. I would recommend reading about the Empowered too. This is not required though. °
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Plot-§
®A mysterious man recently came from the lands beyond the Eastern Mountains. The only thing known about this man is that he is a powerful Empowered. Behind him was a powerful army. Tain, unused to any type of combat, drafted many males into their miniscule army.®
®Within days the mysterious man had taken over most of Tain and most of Tain’s soldiers had died. In less than a week Domic, Tain’s capital, was overtaken. The mysterious man executed the Royal Family and all the nobles who had foolishly stayed in the Palace. This powerful Empowered had himself crowned as the new ruler and named himself the Emperor. ®
®Life is now terribly different for the Tainian’s. Many people have died and others are dying. The Emperor is ordering all Empowered to be killed. People want to rebel but most aren’t brave enough… If no one tries to stop the Emperor he will become Tain’s permanent ruler. ®
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Country-§
®Tain®
®Current Leader® °Emperor°
® Royal Family® °The Tain were the previous Royal Family and are still considered to be the Royal Family, despite the fact that they are no longer in power. Please note that the only Tain’s shown in this family tree are the children that were born to both the king and his queen. Illegitimate children are not show. Robert Tain had many illegitimate children.°
®Life of the Citizens®
°Tain is not the best country to live in. The Rich and Corrupted rule. The poor live terrible lives. There is not really a middle class. Most people either don’t have enough money or have more than enough money. If you are lucky you have just enough to get by, but that is rare because the rich and corrupted take everything, making them some of the most hated people in Tain.°
°Tain is like a medieval fantasy world. There are no televisions, computers, or anything like that. The closest thing to a television is the Dream Mist. Every royal, and a few other talented people, can show the Dream Mist to others around them. This projects images just like a TV. This may show made up images or something that is happening at that moment.°
°Tain’s people also live in fear of the many guilds that have formed throughout the land. The Draco are the most powerful and most feared guild. They are often known to be assassins and control many parts of the country. One city is entirely ruled by the Draco. The king’s word means almost nothing to the Draco and their followers.°
®Resources®
°Tain is a hilly, plantation like country. There are a few forests here and there but most of the country is composed of flat land and hills. The soil of Tain is extremely rich, allowing any different types of crops to be grown here. The climate is slightly diverse, allowing even the rarest types of plants to be grown somewhere in the country. Because of this Tain is an agricultural based nation who makes money of selling food and crafted items.°
®History®
°The original Tainians came from the nation of Balea, a terrible land haunted by spirits, evil doers, and outlaws. Their ruler was a man some would compare to Satan. The words evil and cruel could not begin to describe him. To put it nicely their ruler was a monster. One day the village of Maur was slaughtered. There were few survivors.°
°Quickly the Robert Tain took on the role of leadership. Robert Tain was determined to help his people regain the freedom they had lost centuries ago. With the help of his family he guided the remaining survivors through the Barren Lands and over the Eastern Mountains. Many people joined the Tainians on their quest for freedom. Soon their numbers had increased dramatically.°
°Originally there were only 24 survivors, when they reached the eastern mountains there were over 1,000 people willing to risk everything for freedom. After many troubles and a fight with their previous ruler the Tainians made it to a new land, Tain.°
°Tain was quickly established as a land meant for the persecuted. People from many nations traveled to Tain, deciding to settle. It only took 100 years for Tain to become a popular country. Life was perfect until the Tainian’s king, Robert Tain, died, passing the crown to his son, Jeremiah. That was when the nation started to go downhill. It took many years to decide who the crown would go to, for Robert had many illegitimate children and the growing Tain needed to find the best ruler. °
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Places-§
®Description of the land®
°Tain is a small piece of land near the eastern border of the continent Ursio. It is nearly surrounded by land. The Western Coast is the only area in the nation that touches Alixia, one of the seven large oceans. Tain is filled with a hills, plateaus, and plains. There are a few large forests.°
°The biggest forest is near the western border. This forest is called Domini’s Woods since it is rumored to be the home of the leading god, Domini. Few people travel to Domini’s woods for they are scared of the repercussions. Those who make it out of the woods come back blind, wounded, and half crazed if they have not been “invited.” Those that are invited never seem to return.°
°Domic, Tain's capital, is directly east of Domini's woods. It is situated in the center of the nation. Surrounding Domic are 3 small towns: Alio, Dieriam, and Feriost. The capital is in the middle of the rough circle they seem to form.°
°Near the capital is the Blood Rose Inn. There are a few small settlements scattered around the area north east of the capital. South east of Domini's Woods is Kieriam, a city. The Eastern Mountains take up nearly the entire eastern border. There are a few other forests and settlements. The farther away from the capital the better off the poor seem to be. The rich never stray far from the Capital because of the Draco.°
®Blood Rose Inn® °The Blood Rose Inn is said to be the home and base of the Draco. It makes sense considering there are many murders and disappearances linked to this seemingly innocent Inn. The owner of the inn is a descendent of the royal line and a suspected child of the recently deceased Draco leader. This inn is a very fine place though so many rich customers tend to ignore the all the rumors linked to this place. °
®Alio® °A small town, slightly north east of Domic. ° °Alio holds the Star’s Blessing Inn, which is owned by young woman, named Ali, and her hated father, Daren. It is a crowded place. Many people come to hear the young woman sing and to hear the legends that her father often tells. The only thing they like about Daren are the legends he tell. ° °The Tainted Flower is an apothecary shop owned by old Sara, a Demonic Empowered. She sells many rare plants and herbs. Most people don’t use what they buy for healing though. Sara owns a special collection of deadly plants and poisons. °
® Dieriam ® °A small town, slightly north west of Domic. ° °The Minstrel is a small orphanage and library/ book store owned by young Jeremiah. Many orphaned and abandoned children help run the small library for Jeremiah. In exchange for their help he takes care of them and helps find them good homes. A few of these children he has officially adopted. Those that he adopts are said to be his messengers. °
® Feriost ® °A small town, slightly south east of Domic. ° °The 7 Moons is an inn owned by Malia, the baker’s daughter. Malia was adopted at a young age after her parents abandoned her. She is known to be a kind Demonic Empowered. She runs this somewhat fancy inn with her 3 children. °
® Kieriam ® ° This small city is close to Domini’s Woods. °Domini’s Temple is the home of a Domini Empowered family. This small family is the priests of the Domini Religion. This temple would be extremely popular if people weren’t afraid of Domini. Old and seemingly crazy people visit the temple. It is rare to see someone without grey hair at the temple unless they are part of the priestly family, Kai. °
®Domic® °This is the Capital of Tain° °Mai’s Messengers is a large stone building that seems to be home to the mysterious Messengers. It is also a small academy meant to educate the extremely rich. A few talented children are given scholarships. Each orphan is also educated here. They do not receive the best education, even though it is better than the education of most poor and orphaned children. Mai’s Messengers is also a small orphanage. Mai, a woman who appears to be in her forties, runs both the orphanage and the academy. ° °The Palace is a large palace home to the Royal Family. Recently a few of the spare chambers have been turned into execution and torture chambers. This once beautiful palace has been turned into a living hell. Few people leave the Palace alive. °
®Eastern Mountains® °Dalia is a small settlement in the eastern mountains. Little is known about it and few people care about this settlement. °
®Domini’s Woods® °This is simply the home of Domini, the leading god. Few people visit this forest for they are afraid of the consequences. If you are not invited by Domini you may return wounded, blind, and insane. If you are invited you don’t seem to return. °
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Empowered-§
®Domini® °The Domini have one known gift. This gift is that they can contact the angelic spirits. They can also enter a small “world” that is a lot like Domini’s Wood. This “world” is called the Other Wood. Those who enter this version of Domini’s Wood have little to worry about if they listen to the angelic spirits. If they don’t they may be killed. Some Domini can take items to and from the Other Wood. The most powerful Domini can take a person or group of people into the Other Wood. They may also bring that person back. ° °They may have more gifts but all others are unknown. °
®Demonic® °The Demonic Empowered have the ability to temporarily control a demon or demonic spirit. The most powerful of the Demonic may be able to more or less permanently enslave a demon. ° °Each Demonic seems to have the ability to manipulate fear and dread. They also can manipulate other feelings like sorrow. Because of this they have the ability to dive into a person’s mind and drag out their worst fears, feelings, and memories and show them to their victim.°
®Paranormal® °The Paranormal Empowered may be considered some of the most powerful Empowered because of some of their gifts. Their biggest gift is their ability to enter the darker version of Eferai, the Spiritual Realm. Here they may talk to spirits, requesting their help. The most powerful Eferai can capture these dead spirits or send another living person to the Spiritual Realm. ° °The paranormal have one more gift. This gift is unknown though. °
®It is rare for a person to be an Empowered. Those that have one of these rare gifts are powerful; some are more powerful than others. It is even rarer for a person to have two or more of these gifts. Those with multiple gifts are dangerous. That is exactly why the Emperor could take over Tain, he is the only person known to be two types of Empowered. ®
__________________________________________________________________________
§-The Draco and other Guilds/ Organizations-§
®Draco® °Assassin Guild° °The Draco have no known purpose. Most people believe that the Draco are just greedy murderers. There are rumors that the Draco may actually be good though…° °Most of the members of this guild are assassins, thieves and murderers. ° °Their history is currently unknown. The only thing known about the Draco is that they are an assassin group that pretty much ruled the country before the Emperor came. °
®Messengers® °It is unknown what type of organization this is. ° °Their purpose is unknown. A few people believe that the messengers were trying to over through the Tain’s for some weird, mysterious reason. ° °The people that join this group usually seem to be young, a few of them children. They usually are poor. ° °Their history is currently unknown. °
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Spirits, gods, and Legends-§
®Sepi® °Sepi is known has as the Tempter and the Monster. ° °No one knows exactly what he is. All that is known about his origins is that he is a spirit (not one of the spirits that die and become ghosts.)° °His age is unknown. ° °His physical traits are unknown. He is however known to hate humans and Domini and the other gods. Many people refer to this mysterious spirit as a monster and master of manipulation and temptation. ° °His history is currently unknown. ° °His abilities are currently unknown. °
®Sprilo® °He is known as the Spirit and Changer of Men. ° °Sprilo has taken on the role of comforter. Domini has sent him to Eferai, the planet that this story takes place on. ° °His age is unknown. ° °Sprilo is often seen as a somewhat angelic person. He is known to be a comforter of many. He is somewhat charming and trustworthy. If you think about it is no wonder that he has changed the lives and attitudes of many. ° °His history is currently unknown. ° °His abilities are currently unknown. °
®Domini® °Leader and father god. ° °Domini is pretty much the god of everything. He is commonly referred to the god of Plans, Mercy, and Creation. Many people also refer to him as the god of disasters because of Domini’s Woods. ° °No one knows his age or even if he has an age. ° °Domini is a kind, merciful man. He can be extremely strict but he is strict in a good way. Domini can also be fun. Picture Domini as that somewhat old, fun grandfather like person. ° °His history is currently unknown. ° °His abilities are currently unknown. °
®Criso® °Criso is known as the god of Sacrifice and Teacher. ° °His age is unknown. ° °Criso is simply known as a selfless savior. Some believe act perfect. He has many forms but no matter the form he always has many burns, wounds, and scars. ° °His history is currently unknown. ° °His abilities are currently unknown. °
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Important People-§
®Emperor® °He calls himself the Emperor. His real name is unknown. ° °This Emperor looks to be in his late twenties or early thirties. His true age is unknown. ° °The Emperor is a tall, somewhat muscular man. He has dark brown, nearly black, hair that falls to his shoulders. He also has sea green eyes. His skin is a slight tan. ° °Nothing is known about his history. All that is known about him is that he took over Tain and is now their hated ruler. He also seems to want to destroy every single Empowered. ° °All that is known about his abilities is that he is a Demonic and Paranormal Empowered.° ®The rest of these characters will be added later when we meet more important characters. ®
__________________________________________________________________________
§-Other/ Rules-§
®Yes the names may seem weird and somewhat terrible but they are words from the gods language. ® ®Little is known about the Empowered, the Draco, the Messengers, and the Emperor. Everything will be revealed later in the story. Little is also known about the Domini religion due to the fact that everyone fears the gods. Few people try to learn about the gods and spirit. ® ®Ignore all the weird symbols please. I used them to organize everything in my notes® ®This is going to be kind of complex. There are many secrets and plans that will make this more than a basic, overthrow the evil ruler, type of role-play. Everything will be revealed later in the story so you kind of need to join early to have a good part. There is a chance you can join later but you may be lost. If you do try and join later and I do accept you I will help you if you get confused. Do not have any plot twists and such unless you ask me.® ®Now I am sure you know the basic rules. Do not g-mod, uber, be a mary sue/ gary stue, or anything like that.You also must use grammar and story mode. You must be accepted before you start role-playing. You also must listen to me at all times. I overrule you all. What I say goes no matter what. It is not in the rules is not an excuse.®
§-CS-§ Name? Age? (You can be at least 13. I would like if characters are at least 17 though) Gender? Appearance? Personality? Any skills or talents? Any Weaknesses? Are you Empowered? If so what type?: (Everyone can not be Empowered.... Remember this is RARE) Home? (Where does your character live currently?) Occupation? (Use this to say if you work for a guild) History?

§-CS-§
Name? Locke [Can't think of a good last name :/]
Ag.e? 18 [May change depending on what others choose.]
Gen.der? Male
Appearance? Locke is thin and slender, he isn't skinny enough to easily see his bones but he is fairly thin. He has very pale skin, and darkly colored bags under his eyes alot of the time. He has shaggy black hair, and several scars lining his body. His eyes are bloodshot and the irises are as black as the pupil. His fingernails are long and pointed and he normally either has a dangerous gleam in his eye and the half-grin you'd see a murderer having. Alot of the time he has a blank, morbid expression. He usually wears a black type robe during the night, or black dyed leather pants and jacket. He wears black boots.
Personality? Locke is a very morbid person, without him really knowing. He is calm and serious, and most consider him a heartless, cold fiend. Which could be true. He isn't fun to be around but and the only time he makes anything close to a joke is when he makes a sarcastic comment. He is sane, but many do not believe this but his mind doesn't really work the same way as others. He doesn't trust few, but can be a good friend. He loves to see pain and death, and will fight anyone no matter how outnumbered or 'outgunned' he is. He is a very hateful person and contains his anger until he just snaps, which is a dangerous trait that many serial killers have in common with him.
Any skills or talents? He doesn't fear death, moreso embraces it. Making him not afraid to do things which can and probably will get him killed. He is pretty sneaky, but nothing really good, just prone to stay within the crowd from his loner instincts, he has a high pain tolerance.
Any Weaknesses? He is not trusting, and is easily angered.
Are you Empowered? If so what type?: Yes, he was. It was a blessing and curse. He is a Paranormal.
Home? He lives in Feriost.
Occupation? He has no job or purpose. This is his own words.
History? Locke grew up a loner, but being feared by his peers. Sometimes if someone challenged him, he would do small things likes drag a small dagger across his face, drawing blood to end confrontations quickly. He was a very mellow boy, and would sometimes fall asleep during the day, as during the night small things like he would see a shadow at the end of the hall, the wind would talk to him or other things. This caused him to become dangerous. He became hateful and untrusting, from his nights full of fear. He slowly grew used to these things an over time began to embrace them. Eventually, he found his calling and when he hit 16, left to travel the lands.
Items? He carries a blade which some call cursed. It is as long as a shortsword, but has technology slightly more advanced than others. His blade can retract into his handle, which is black and has a silver gleam. It shows many different vines and a few skulls on it. The blade is silver, which has an errie black glow to it but the blade itself appears almost white. Think of it as a medieval version of a 'switchblade'.
Anything else? I read everything important, or everything because I couldn't tell worthless from needed. :P So if there is anything I am supposed to put, I am sorry. |

I also find it a bit unfair not to let Jodie have any because of all the other role-plays we are both in and I wanted to be an empowered to. Well I may... Hm... I guess I will accept you all and make a few humans to balance it out or I will not allow anyone else to be Empowered for a while. That is, if more people join.) |
