So I've had this idea for a really long time now, and I finally found a place to RP it! ^^ So here it is!
Set in medieval times, the land of Lilae is one of beauty. From nice cobblestone path ways and large buildings in the cities and towns, to beautiful rivers, mountains , lakes and forests, Lilae is undoubtedly a place one would one to live…For humans that is. Humans have taken over most of Lilae and the Elves and Demons that live here as well have been cast out to the forests to live out their lives in secret. Not many Humans know of Elves and Demons, and those who do know of them, seek to hunt them.
Demons are hunted by both elves and humans because they are considered to be dangerous creatures. Humans hunt them more then Elves, and that’s only to prove their strength, or because they want to eradicate the species. Demons and humans hunt Elves. Demons hunt Elves for food while Humans hunt Elves for sport. They chase the elves down and cut off their ears as trophies before killing them or, they will enslave the Elves. Demons also hunt humans for food however Elves seek to assassinate humans. Elves don’t want to kill off the entire race, but seek to kill humans to get their point across.
This is what goes behind the face of a seemingly perfect Human society.
Now there are a few places that should be noted in Lilae.
The River Namos: A large river that flows through most of Lilae, In the middle of this river there is a large lake.
Daisur: A large farming town on the bank of the River Namos. They send most of their crops to the Capital city.
Farunon: The capital city. Here is where there is a large market and the castle that holds the King and his family. This place is quite close to Eothem Forest.
Eothem Forest: A large forest that is on the western part of Lilae. This is where the elves and the demons have been cast out to.
Plot: The King of the humans has been assassinated by an Elf in the middle of a court. The elf has since then been killed, hung in the town square saying nothing of where he came from. This wouldn’t be a problem if the queen was still alive, but unfortunately she died in childbirth. Now the two sons are left to battle it out for claim to the throne. On top of that a group of people called the Imperialists have risen up to take over the throne. The Humans now live in fear of Elves coming to get them. The worst part of it is? The demons have started migrating towards the southwestern border and are starting to brutally attack towns. Is Lilae doomed to be taken over by the Imperialists before someone claims the throne? Will humans begin to hunt Elves in excess? Or will none of this matter as the demons wipe both Elves and humans off the map? What Lilae needs are people who are willing to unite both Elves and humans to drive the Demons out.
Elven community: The Elves are a secretive community that lives deep in the forests in small tribes. These tribes are made up of small tents and sometimes small mud or clay huts. Elves tend to live off the land, they scavenge and hunt. When you learn about the Elven culture, at first they seem to be very simplistic; using things they find to make weapons, clothes, and food. However as you get deeper into the religion and the lives of the elves, it becomes harder to grasp and understand. The Elven religion surrounds rituals and worshipping different gods. The rituals that the elves perform are based off of the month season and the moon’s position. Another difficult thing to understand about the elves is their cast system. Your place in the cast is determined by your appearance. The nobles are any elf with pale skin, blond hair, and green eyes. The nobles are treated nicely and are always respected as they resemble the Ancestors. They never have to work and they determine the laws. One thing about the nobility is that they are never allowed to leave the tribe. Then next is the middle class, which is any elf with pale skin and any color eyes or hair. They are the working class, they get the better jobs. The lower class of elves is any elf with dark skin. They are treated alright, they are the working class as well, however they get the jobs that nobody wants to do. The lowest class is split into two parts. Whoever is in the lowest class, they tend to be treated as dirt, and don’t have any jobs as all, they are considered outcasts. The first part to the lowest class is the Human Halflings. The second part is the Demon Halflings. There are also several jobs that go to the elves. The jobs are historians, mages, apothecaries, artisans, hunters, scavengers and those who perform rituals. Elves can be any combination of these things. They live to be about 120 years of age.
Demon community: There isn’t much known about the demons. But what is known about them is that they are savage beasts only interested in power and food. Demons live in small groups known as packs. These packs live in the deepest part of the forest and pray on any living thing they can get their hands on. Most of the pray consist of small and large animals. However any living thing includes elves and humans. In times of desperation demons will hunt other packs. The demon hierarchy is very simple. The stronger you are the more respect, food and living space the demon is given. Because of the demons savage nature, demons are usually covered in wounds. Because of those wounds and the raw meat that they eat, demons easily become sick and weak. For this reason demons die and reproduce quickly. Demons only live till about 30. A small note has been made that while demons are savage beasts; low level demons can harbor compassion and other feelings and are able to learn the English language.
Human community: Where humans are concerned, they are the mid ground between elves and demons. The hierarchy of humans starts with the royalty from an ever thinning bloodline. Nobility is broken down from kings and queens, to princes and princesses, then dukes and duchesses. Nobility is treated well no matter how stuck up they are and live quite well in large or small castles. Below this is the class of merchants, those who sell their goods that they make for a profit. The merchants have relatively easygoing Lives. After the merchants there are farmers and butchers who sell their crops and meat for a profit. They live a harder life, waking up early and going to bed late, these jobs are more physically demanding. The lowest of the low are beggars and stealers. These people have no place in the idealistic society that humans try to create. Human’s lives are based off the harvesting season and religion. The span of a human is mid-ranged from 40 to 75.
