Author Topic: Dark Scroll ~:[Mythical Medieval Text Based RP]:~  (Read 2278 times)

Backstory
The land of Kyradar {Ki-ra-dar}, once was a lush natural eden of the earth, is now in peril. Since the rise of man, the heavy metal of the industrial revolution has come crashing down on the forest land of Kyradar. The people of the land were happy with the new mechanism of machine, but the land itself lay torn, destroyed and burning. Few protest groups could stand up to the Iron Fist of Lord Geirdån {Gire-dawn} and his armies. They plundered the land of its natural resources, stripped it of its forests and killed its creatures. Though their operations seemed to run  smoothly, the Uriars {Ur-i-ars}, large wolf like creatures gave them quite a bit of grief. Their claws large and strong enough to slit the toughest of armor and their legs agile enough to take them great distances over very short amounts of time.

The land had had enough, the armies of Geirdån marched towards the mountain of Kyra {Ki-ra}, the tallest peak in the lands. They came bearing torches, axes and pickaxes. As they drew closer to the foot of the mountain, the strong smell of smoke came from the ground. Underneath their feet the ground began to heat and bulge and in a burst of flame and fiery hot magma there rose a huge dragon like creature. It swung its tail round destroying an entire squadron of archers. Lord Geirdån ordered them to attack. The thousands of swordsmen started their charge towards the creature, with their swords help high they ran. The creature anticipated this and lay its neck low and breathed a flame that engulfed the entire army. The Lord Geirdån managed to escape through the emptied mines. He returned to his throne and confronted his highest priests.  They spoke of a scroll that will undo the dying lands and bring them back to their former glory, but most of all destroy the creature of Mount Kyra, but the Lord Geidån had other ideas for the scroll, he wanted to use it to take over more of the lands and control the beast. The battle of Mount Kyra had ended, but the War of the Dark Scroll is still to cease.

In this RP their are two sides:

Rangers- A cult sworn to find the scroll and return the lands to what it once was.

Gnars- The high ranked soldiers of Lord Geirån sworn to find the scroll for the most evil of purposes.

I climb up from underneath the tree, I took shelter there from the storm last night. The ground is wet and muddy, further down the valley it is flooded. I hop down a small slope and begin walking down the valley, the birds do not sing anymore. Hearing a feint tweet in the distance is all you can expect to hear from them, and if you do hear such a thing, you run to the scene and try to kill it for food in the hope it is a crow, or gull. The mud is getting deeper beneath my feet, I have stumbled into a bog. I pull my right leg up in an attempt to keep walking, but my left leg sinks deeper into the mud. I lift try to lift my left leg up, but it is completely engulfed in the bog. I grab onto the branch of a small tree and pull myself slowly towards it. This time I was lucky, what foul creatures may live the the bog I do not know, but I have heard enough rumors for my fair share. Sinking in the bog is the least of your worries, it's what lies beneath that threatens you most.
I walk away from the bog and come to a stream, the perfect place to wash my clothes off. I lay a long branch across the steam and fold my clothes over it and lower the branch into the water. I take a seat of a nearby rock and wait for them to get soaked before I dry them. It is cold, nothing is around. Most people wish for complete silence, I wish to hear noise, the slightest echo of an animal would be rewarding, but the only sounds I hear and the sounds of the wind and the stream. I take my clothes from the stream and lay them on a branch to dry.
When they are finally dry I make my way down the stream, maybe I'll spot some fish or it will lead to a river or lake. The walk is tiring but the thought that something may be at the end is too great to pass up. As I continue walking, the trees become more sparse, more and more rocks appear, the ground is darker. I suddenly realize just where I have stumbled. I am in the Dark Valley, leading down from Castle Krag, a large abandoned castle that was left by the last civilization to come to Kyradar. I have heard of creatures that hunt for their prey in these areas, but I will not pass up the chance for some decent shelter. I continue walking and finally reach a point where the valley begins to ascend. I can see the castle sticking out of the black cliff face, there are even a few crows flying around the guard tower. I begin to climb.

Is this good?
That is a matter of opinion, so in my opinion; yes it is good. But not much is happening at the moment. I currently creating a scenario which I will add to the main story soon.

Name: Lenuoes (Lee-un-ur-os)
Age: 22
Loyalty: Gnars
Skills: Sword combat, Fishing, Cooking
Inventory: Break apart fishing rod, Fish bait, Wood, Spark Rocks, 50 Gold
Weapons: Long sword, Dagger, Knife
Clothing: Light bronze chest-plate, Leather undershirt, dark brown leather pants, Leather hat, Leather boots, Black leather gloves.
Location: Lenuoes one man camp outside of the great city Geidor

I wake up from my tent I went to sleep in last night. I noticed that its rained pretty hard that night, Seeing as i could not sleep to well hearing things walking about. As I walk out of my tent I see that a branch fall right where my camp fire was that night. So I think to myself how bad really was that storm last night. I then pick up the branch and start to cut it up the best I can with my sword to use as fire wood. I finish cutting it and place it on a stone after I dry of some of the water with my right leather glove. I then walk over to the lake by my small camp and take out my fishing pole and put it together, put some bait on it and cast it in the water. I sit there thinking if this war will ever be over.
Soon after I look down at the water I see the string of the pole bobbing up and down so I pull in as fast as I could and I catch a blue bass. I then think how happy I am I caught a fish. I walk back over to my camp fire and Put the almost dry wood on the fire area and try to light it for almost and hour then it finally works. So I sat the dead fish on my lap and pull out my dagger and cut off the head, pull out the bones the best I can, cut into the side wand take out all the guts. I then think that that looks good already and I place it on so sticks I already had place from the night before that some how stayed up. I wait for the fish to cook I keep Flipping it waiting till its done
