    so I would like to say this is sort of a storytelling rpg.... if the players want I can do dice rolls,basically I will start you wherever,and yall can do what you wish we will be following a standard money system, but anything else we can create ourselves.....
    and this is more of a hard magic campaign meaning:
    1. all magic has consequences the more powerful the more of a price it costs

    1.the land of kerymifia: ruled by the high elves these great casters of natural magic are the wisest and most fair skinned mortal creatures although they are wise now they are known for their atrocities agianst the dark elves of bursolb and the wood elves of estoria, they also hate every other race except celestials and humans
    2.bursolb: the land the dark elves fled to they are known for their assasins and metal working with the dwarves of bursolb
    3. estoria: the land the wood elves live in....they are known for their trackers , sailors and ships
    4. peterdia: the land of the humans....they are quite versatile and known for their great inguinity
    5. the land of tey: these are the barren lands of the demons they are known for destruction magic and charming magic
    6. kwyrel: the land of celestails..they are known for their conjuring and creation magic....they have secluded themselves from the world until it needs them

    10 copper=1 silver
    10 silver = 1 gold
    10 gold= 1platinum
    10 platinum=1 diamond coin

    I am not currently banning any kind of action that you or anyone else can make. If you want to murder someone, that's fine. If you want to rape someone, that's fine. If someone tries to rape your character, that shouldn't come as a surprise. I have always been a proponent of freedom to do as you wish in such RPG's.
    I am also going to implement racial features as the party grows in strength....such as Demonic (players race) or angelic (players race) or Demon-morph, and angel-morph
    to implement this I am going to use a point consequence system: meaning most actions have a value....a -10 is how low you can go making you a demon-morph a +10 makes you an angel-morph....a -5 makes you a demonic being and a +5 is a angelic being

    most actions are a 0 but the minor change is usually .5 change
    larger actions can go up to 2pts in change

    So, will a character like this work (wasn't sure whether to include her background or not)?

    Name: Valerie
    Race: Human
    Age: Early twenties

    Background:
    A young human girl born in a small town in the country of Peterdia. Daughter of a local tavern wench and the middle of three sisters. She is the only woman in the family who is not bisexual – instead she's a lesbian.
    Her father was an adventurer. He has not visited the family since Valerie was 5, and as far as they know he is likely long dead.
    Her mother and her older sister work as waitresses in one of the most expensive taverns in the town, while her younger sister works as a maid for a local noblewoman.

    Ever since she was a little girl Valerie was interested in stories about adventurers and wanted to become one herself. When she grew up she also became interested in pretty girls and discovered she has a natural talent for seducing them – something she took advantage of to learn spells from visiting women. She does not hesitate to use her 'charms' to get what she wants from any woman, even her relatives (though as far as her mother and sisters are concerned she has never gone beyond flirting and innuendo).

    Valerie spent a lot of time exploring some old ruins near the town. They had been long since looted by adventurers and treasure seekers, but there was an ancient ring that everyone had either missed or ignored – until the young girl came along and took it. Before long she discovered its secret and began occasionally training with her new weapon.

    Eventually Valerie was no longer satisfied with just learning from visiting women and exploring the empty old ruins – she wanted to actually put her skills to use. Thus she bought the best equipment she could afford (which was, admittedly, not a lot or that great) and left her home town to look for adventure elsewhere.


    Abilities:
    Basic Swordsmanship (self-taught) – in order to use her Shadowblade (see inventory section) she trained on her own and learned the basics of using swords in combat
    Basic Spellcasting – knows numerous spells of all types (combat, defense, utility, etc.), all of them learned from women she persuaded (read: seduced) to teach her. Nothing particularly powerful or impressive, though
    Seduction (females) – very skilled and experienced in seducing females

    Preferred combat style is to attack from a distance via magic, with melee combat being a last resort.


    Job: Wandering Adventurer
    Homeland: Peterdia

    Inventory:
    Steel Dagger – a plain steel dagger worn in a sheath on her waist. It appears to be Valerie's only weapon, but is really just a decoy to hide her real weapon
    Ring of Shadowblade – an ancient ring made of some sort of black steel (as far as Valerie can tell). Can be used to create a Shadowblade – a long sword made out of shadows (which allows it to hurt creatures that are immune to regular blades). The sword lasts up to one hour and needs twice as long to recharge afterwards (so if she uses it for 5 minutes she needs to wait 10 minutes before she can use it again; if she uses it for 30 minutes – she needs to wait 60 minutes; and so on). She found it in an old ruin near her home town that she explored a few years ago and it is her most prized possession. Currently worn on the middle finger of her right hand
    A suite of cheap Leather Armor (includes leather breastplate, leather pants, leather boots, leather gloves...)
    Heavy leather cloak with a hood – useful for keeping her warm and for protecting her from rain and snow
    A cheap gray dress, typically worn by commoners – useful for when she just wants to blend in and not attract attention
    A dark blue dress that exposes quite a bit of cleavage – usually wears it when she wants to enhance her looks (and with that – her chances of seducing a pretty girl)
    A length of sturdy rope
    A few blank scrolls
    A cheap but reliable backpack and enough rations for the next few days
    A money pouch with some money inside

    She used to have some ink, too, but currently is all out and will need to buy more later

    Description:
    Shoulder-length black hair, blue eyes, D-cup breasts, average height

    Picture: No good picture at this time. Probably something like this:
    https://goo.gl/images/W72GUf

    or this:
    https://goo.gl/images/BWz5EU

    (minus the jewelry in both cases, at least until she actually gets any jewelry)



    Additions since the start of the game:
    Alignment +1.5

    A flaming sword enveloped in dark blue flames. Weapon ability: +1 fireball per day from sword
    Some ink
    A small wooden box
    Two scrolls: one heals a person fully and the other lets out a massive firestorm
    1 acid potion
    1 potion of Greek fire
    A book in an arcane language she can't read
    Almost out of money (only a few coins left)
    A magic book with see a picture of a snake on fire on its cover

    Spells used so far:
    Haste spell – for a few seconds target moves much faster. Half as draining if the target is the caster
    Blurring spell – for a few minutes target is blurred and more difficult to hit. Half as draining if the target is the caster
    Ball of light spell – creates a small ball of light above the caster. It lasts a few minutes and moves together with the caster
    A gust of wind that can pick up dust and small objects, such as small stones
    Slow spell – target is slowed down for a few seconds
    Sharp bolts of ice – hurt target
    A weak barrier – all allies within the area of effect are protected by a barely-visible sphere of white light. Normally the barrier can take just one hit before shattering, but if the attacks are weak enough it might take more than one to destroy the barrier. The more allies in the area of effect the more draining the spell is.

    I have a question about the ring, since I am not sure how it works.
    How does the duplication work, exactly? If Valerie gives the ring to Grace, will that result in Grace being in command and Valerie becoming her slave? What if Valerie puts on the ring? What effects will that have?
     
  18. BladeGod

    BladeGod Guest

    if val gives the ring to grace and takes it back she'll be in command....the ring appears on the last one to hold it...and if she puts on the ring she will gain or lose nothing as she killed the previous owner of the ring for it
