Athamar: Quests from Lorana OOC

[Lúthien]

Thank you for your interest in this roleplay! At the moment, I am not accepting character sheets due to the large group. If you are interested in joining, please feel free to VM/PM me and I will definitely keep you in mind when there are openings. Thank you for your understanding and thank you for reading!

Voted for Best Overall Roleplay!

Hello! Greetings traveler. Welcome to the beautiful kingdom of Lorana! I’m sure you’ve heard of it!

You haven’t?

……

Well! That’s okay! Lots of people don’t know about the largest kingdom in the world, it’s perfectly understandable!

Our vast kingdom is made up of towns, farmland, forests, and of course, a gigantic castle right in its center. All of this is ruled by the great King Loranos, his headstrong wife Edalene, and their three accomplished daughters Delwyn, Vaiel, and Edalene II. So far their rule has been just and peaceful, and we live in relative comfort and prosperity.

But don’t turn away so fast Adventurer! There might be some excitement for you yet. You see, darkness has been spreading like wildfire across the world and sneaking its way into our kingdom. Rumors of dragons, evil witches, dark mages and frightening monsters have been whispered amongst the townspeople, and even the most courageous of fighters have turned up their nose at the quests posted on the Kings Bulletin outside of the castle.

That’s where you come in. Are you up for the task of defeating the evil forces threatening to destroy our peaceful existence? It will be difficult, daunting and extremely dangerous. Sadly, some of you may not make it, but that just means more rewards for the ones who do! So sharpen those swords, practice those spells and for goodness sake, take a bath, for your journey is about to begin.

THE KINGS BULLETIN:

1. Retrieve the Magical Harp from the Evil Witch at Silvershadow Woods.

The Magical Harp is the only instrument that can ease the Fairy King into a peaceful slumber. Legends are told that the harp does more than put the Fairies to sleep, it grants wishes by just a flick of a simple melody. Before embarking on this mission, please report to King Loranos for more knowledge on this matter.

Quest Completed!

GM's Note: This is a free roam fantasy RP with no direct plot. I know that sounds dangerous, but it's not. Eventually these quests will fall into place and there will be one mission that leads into something direct.

P.S: Thank you Angelic for writing the OOC!

The Royal Family of Lorana:

Spoiler: King Cadeyrn Argan Loranos: 

When his father passed, Loranos took the throne as king at twenty-two. At forty, Loranos lead the kingdom into great prosperity and made alliances with Anorgath and Lamordia. Most recently he has made a new alliance with the desert kingdom of Gallagona
.
With piercing blue eyes and distinctive dark features, citizens often wonder if he is a man with a cold heart. However, such thoughts are proved wrong, as he is a man who cherishes his people and will do anything to protect the land.

Spoiler: Queen Edalene Yilasa Loranos: 

Before she met Loranos, she was the princess of Espeos—the kingdom in the sky. She was betrothed to the Prince of Gallagona to form an alliance at the time, but her heart felt ill as soon as she laid eyes on Loranos when he visited. Though, therme is a three year difference between them, it did not stop her from being with him. Disobeying her royal faily, she was casted away from Espeos, never to hear from them again.

Even though the Loranian and Lamordian families are all she has left, the gods (who admire the people of Espeos) still hear Edalene’s prayers and even at times reach out to her.

People often gossip about Queen Edalene being more beautiful than Queen Nelaedra. With her light features and soft blue eyes, they strongly believe that Loranos and Edalene were made for each other.

Spoiler: Princess Edalene Yilasa Loranos II: 

She is the oldest, being eighteen and ready to be betrothed. Much like her mother, she is very headstrong, but like her father, she is eager for many things and can be quite talkative. She is the most gorgeous one; taking her looks mainly from her mother and thus, she is often most talked about. Mostly about which prince will take her hand.

In the castle, Edalene enjoys blaming her troubles on her sister, Vaiel.

Spoiler: Princess Vaiel Osoa Loranos: 

Unlike her elder sister, Vaiel has no interest in arranged marriages. At sixteen, she enjoys studying the arts of magic. Vaiel is unique in that her features are very similar to her father and the night sky. It’s superstition to believe that being born under the full moon grants the household bad luck. The fact that her hobby is reading and practicing spells is enough of a concern in the royal family.

Though she is the silent type, the servants of the castle sometimes fear her.

Spoiler: Princess Delwyn Eres Loranos: 

Being the youngest at nine years old, she is the most stubborn one. Don’t let the innocent freckle face persuade you into thinking she’s a sweet child; Delwyn is quite the mischievous one. She enjoys sneaking out of the castle to play in the woods or explore the markets. Aside from causing ruckus in the castle, Delwyn enjoys reading tales about dragons and even collects figurines of the legendary beast.

At most, Delwyn looks more like her mother and Edalene II; though, she seems to look up to Vaiel more.

Spoiler: Hesper Leret 

Spoiler: Sir Hesper Leret – The Knight Commander: 

Spoiler: His Armor 

Spoiler: His blade: Two-handed claymore 

He is a long-term protector of the royal family, granting him the title Sir for many of his achievements such as defending the first King of Lorana in the old wars and leading the army by his side. Now at fifty, he still swears an oath to protect the new royal family. It is an honor for a squire to be assigned to Sir Hesper Leret. Ever since he trained Ialia and granted her knighthood, she has looked up to him as a father and always asks him advice. Though he has taught other knights, he sees Ialia as his very own daughter.

World Map:

Spoiler:  

Large numbers are of importance
Smaller numbers are of little importance
More locations shall unlock throughout different quests

1. Lorana - The Kingdom that you will start in. South from Lorana is Silvershadow Woods where you will need to go.

2. Lamordia - Neighboring Kingdom ruled by King Loranos' brother.

3. Meadowdale - A small village by Lamordia

4. Corus - A city by the water. The have ports to bring in trade and goods from other kingdoms across the world

5. Porzul - Much like Corus

6. Lumina - A city in darkness. The people blame Espeos for blocking the sunlight.

7. Espeos - A kingdom in the sky. Legends are told that the gods favor the people of Espeos because they are closer to them.

8. Draconis Peak - HERE BE DRAGONS. They eat people here.

9. Perennon Forest - A forest mainly dominated by Elves. People come here to practice the skills of a ranger or a rogue. The towns and villages are deep within the woods; some Elves and humans even live within the trees.

10. Gallagona Desert - No one knows much of Gallagona or the Kingdom that resides. It’s a barren land filled with the unknown.

11. The Talking Marshes - A swamp with spirits of the dead. They lie to the adventurers telling them where to go, however, most travelers end up dying for they cannot get out. Hence they become part of the talking marshes.

Or at least that’s how the legends go!

12. Anorgath - A kingdom ruled by the elemental sisters Queen Damia and Queen Flannery. It is the land of mages and magic. With a school not too far from the kingdom, it’s no wonder people come here to study the art of magic.

Rules:

As GM of the roleplay, I have the right to reject your character if I find it over the top, godmoddish, or for whatever reason I may find.

Dedication plays an important role. If you back out, I have the right to kill off your character. Please notify me if you cannot be part of the rp any more.

Must be literate and an experienced writer. Hurrr durrr.

Everyone is more than welcome to create more than one character as long as they can handle it.

For this roleplay, everyone is going to have their main character that will embark on these quests. Aside from your main character, you have the option of making side characters that will appear only in certain quests.

Because this is a chapter-based roleplay, everyone is allowed to chip in ideas. Our characters will be traveling across the world a lot, so if you have a “quest” in mind, I beg you to tell us! It will make the roleplay more exciting that way!

Always ask questions if you have any.


If needed, more rules will be added.

[Lúthien]

Other Information:

Anyone can play whoever they want. Your character does not necessarily have to be a "good" person. They can be villains in disguise or just overall have a foul personality. Be creative!

[Ace of Hearts™]

Before I try to make a character, a plot will come in sooner or later? Or is it just one giant quest?

[Lúthien]

There's going to be a quest that leads into the plot. It's not going to happen now but definitely later on throughout the RP.

[Kiall]

I too have a question! do we have to pick a location from the map or can we make up one?

If we have to pick one from the map when do you think you'll have the descriptions up?

[Lúthien]

I'm actually writing the descriptions as we speak. It's nothing too long, just a simple sentence of what they are and stuff. But, I really don't mind if you make up a place of your own as long as it's a small village/town within the world map of Athamar.

I hope that makes sense @_@

EDIT: Descriptions are up. It's nothing serious, but you get the idea

[Kiall]

Name: Jason Reggin

Age: 20

Appearance: has dark brown hair which he keeps very short on account of the weather being a good deal hotter than he’s used to, like most of the people from Salaplun he’s fairly tall and ruddy cheeked. He’s also recently tried growing out a beard to get more of a ‘grizzled’ look but in reality it makes him look like he doesn’t understand how a razor works. He has a longsword he keeps sheathed and buckled to his back, and a single gauntlet on his left hand that he never takes off

Location: Salaplun

Class/Weapon: Problem Solver, and he owns a long sword and a fire gauntlet

Personality: Jason is a snarky and unmotivated person with a penchant for getting kicked out of taverns and run out of town (sometimes both in the same night!). Despite his seeming laziness he will do almost any job as long as he’s asked by a beautiful woman or offered a good deal of money. He also has a tendency to blunder into danger but he has thus far come away unharmed, this is due partially to the unique combination of skills he wields and the inexplicable amount of dumb luck that seems to follow him everywhere he goes

History: Jason was born in Salaplun, a town known for being really cold for most of the year and its huge population of bears. When he was sixteen he apprenticed himself to a powerful sorceress who through a combination of her ice and snow based magic and her cold personality was known as the ‘Ice Queen.’ After two years he still knew nothing about magic and was getting fed up, he had only joined because of the Ice Queen’s beauty and because he had a thing for dominating women, however the constant jeers and insults were starting to take a toll on his self esteem, plus her beauty didn’t make up for the constant discomfort and freezing pain that came from living in an ice castle. So one day while his mentor was out he left with a plan to go to Lorana, but not without stealing a fire gauntlet, an orb of eternal snow, and a compass that always pointed to whatever you desired. He then promptly sold the compass and orb before he realized what they really did for a new sword and a boat ticket to Lorana.

On the boat he discovered that the gauntlet he kept could create gouts of flame or fireballs just by willing it, he also worked on his swordplay practicing with the crew, right up until he accidently poked out one of the sailor’s eyes, the trip was a great deal more tense after that but eventually he made it. Once in Lorana he wandered never staying in one place for long, to keep himself fed he did the occasional odd job, over time he’s garnered a reputation for being willing to go to places most people won’t and doing things most people won’t do, and despite his unorthodox methods he’s always gotten the job done.

by the by he's human and not sure which country Salaplun would be in... wherever the cold country is...yeah
