Name of Faction: The Divine Atlantine States
Claimed Territory: imgur.com/SrUlrzm?desktop=1
Capital City: Shemelia-on-the-Sea
Leader Name: Oltum of the Divinity of Regus
Map Claims: imgur.com/SrUlrzm?desktop=1
Population: 2,750
Manpower: 275. 100 infantry men, employing advanced spears and shortswords. 100 archers, employing crossbows. 75 cavalrymen, mounted and armored, employing lances and spatha-like swords.
Libertarianism-Totalitarianism: The Divinity (in our words, a monarchy) is the medium between which the people communicate with the gods; as such, they control every aspect about citizen life. Military service is compalsory; slavery is abundant; difference is outlawed. Such is the nature of the Divinity.
Large ruling class-Small ruling class: A small ruling class of eleven members, those being: the Diviner Oltum Regus; his two wives; his mother; his seven children.
Moralistic-Ruthless: The Divinity is based off of a corrupt set of morals. While these morals openly subjegate women, surpress the masses, commend slavery, and discourage free thought, they cannot be broken; ergo, a ruler that opposes slavery may be killed, and the murderer will be seen as a savior (except, in this example, to the slaves).
Diplomatic-Militaristic: The Divinity is opportunistic. Where it can persuade a cluster of local peoples to swear loyalty to them, it will; and where it cannot, it will enslave them with the sword. Additionally, all that do not agree with the Divinity must die. Simply.
Expansionist-Isolationist: The Divinity shall rule all of Atlantis. This is as the gods desire.


Special Resources: Horses, Metal Ores, Ancient Shrines
Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's history:

The Divine Atlantine States were formed by Regus the God-Tongued. Claiming to speak for the gods, Regus was able to unite the Divine States after the Great Flood. In doing so, he moved to change culture traumatically: he increased national fervor and dedication, emphasized a need for religious conviction, and distinguished himself and his descendants as speakers-of-the-gods (as he called them, Diviners). To further distance his people from their former culture, he called them Atlantine, not Atlantean. He convinced his people that the only way to salvation was through dedication to the gods; and dedication to the gods was only possible through military service. In his newly reformed culture, any man that dies fighting for the Divine States is pardoned of all sin and accepted into the highest courts of the heavens. To die in battle is the ultimate honor, and, due to this belief, the army is exceptionally well-equiped and trained. One third of men are mounted, with the Divine States commanding a large population of horses in the north and east; and all men have considerable armor, due to the rolling ore hills to the west. All men going to war carry a talisman to their chosen god-paragon, which is given to them in Shemelia-on-the-Sea.

Bonjour et bonsoir! (You have to know me to get the French.)

Forewarning: Anything below this point is going to be either facetious, objectively irrelevant, fun RPs, or simply my personally ramblings.

I have learned how to exclaim my divinity in four languages. Soy un dios! Je suis un dieu! Ich bin ein Gott! I am a god! I find this to be proof of my divinity.

Anyway, some RPs:

Name of Faction: Rohan
Claimed Territory: (You can claim up to four territories to begin with.) see map
Capital City: Edoras
Leader Name: Eorl the Young
Map Claims:(Three provinces max.) Image
All the territories that the line goes through (did it on my phone)
Population: (This number comes from the number and type of provinces you have)2500
Manpower: (Maximum number of men you can have in your army. Also comes from provinces.)
250
These Descriptions are how you personalize your nation. In a short summary please describe how your nation performs in the following categories. No Numbers!
Libertarianism-Totalitarianism: (Scale of how much the government is present in average life.)
The government of Rohan is hardly overcontrolling. Other than the fact they encourage a strong sense of their culture to be always present, they let their people live their lives in peace. All citizens are required to be able to ride a horse

Large ruling class-Small ruling class: (Largest being direct democracy, smallest being monarchy, for instance)
My government is the smallest ruling class (monarchy). There is a royal family, Eorl the Young is the king of my people.

Moralistic-Ruthless: (Moralistic states may ban things on their ethical standpoint, ruthless states simply don't care for morals)
There is a strong-sense of responsibilty to uphold morals within Rohan. This is purely based upon the fact that being chivalrous was adopted into our culture. The Rohirrim are a very proud people.

Diplomatic-Militaristic: (How your faction and it's people act towards other nations and factions.)
We base our opinions of people on their actions and likewise to nations. We are not a nation to make assumptions or stereotype, as we have a rather bizarre culture ourselves. We are very accepting peoples.

Expansionist-Isolationist: (How willing your state is to expand to new lands, both on earth and in the heavens above.)
We are not adamant on gaining lebensraum, but we will take land if the opportunity presents itself.


Special Resources: (Please list any/all special resources you may have here.) Horses, relics and marble

Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's history: ever since the Atlanteans have dwelled in Atlantis there was always those who had greatly respected the nature esp. Animals around themselves. The Rohirrim have always had a special connection with the horse. Rohirrim means horse-lords in their tongue. The Wandering peoples of Rohan as they were once called was because they followed wild horses wherever they went. This was until the day the horses settled in the land which the Rohirrim reside in today. They are mighty I battle and have a cavalry unmatched.

RP Example: (Either a link to one of you previous RPs, or a good example of your RPing style.)
I haven't been in any major roleplays seeing as I have recently joined. But, I have made this post.

It is said that when Morgoth was defeated, his spirit lingered around Arda forever after. In my slightly altered version of events, During the time of Sauron's Barad-Dûr, he gave quite a lot of focus and attention on bringing back his master, Morgoth. Therefore, Morgoth was growing in power and all he needed to reinstate his (much weaker) physical form, was the spiritual devilry from the beings of the time of Eldarion. Therefore, my storyline is based on Morgoth's return to Arda, specifically middle-earth, trying to do what Sauron could not.

AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

Omfg. Utceorp. Don't you think I know that. I took the names from the lord of the rings. I've read all the books, probably more than you've done. NONE of the writing in my post is copied and pasted. The history of the Rohirrim isn't even close to that in LOTR, the only similar things are the names and the concept of horses having high statuses.
copy and paste my exact words into google, nothing apart from maybe this thread will come up.
Don't accuse someone if you don't know what your talking about.p.s I shall like to be re-accepted and if I am not, I would like a GOOD REASON why not.

Come on, the easiest thing to do is to come up with some new names for something. You have a horse-based culture called Rohan. Come on, there is so much else you can name it. If you changed the names around a bit, that would make a world of difference. Something Hellenic, perhaps, because Atlantis.
The name's James. James Usari. Well, my name is not actually James Usari, so don't bother actually looking it up, but it'll do for now.

Couldn't resist.

Name of Faction: Unkerlant
Claimed Territory: Underlant
Capital City: Cottbus
Leader Name: Scion Mairon the Admirable, Lord of the Earth
Map Claims: The three yellow provinces of the lands to which the King in Gray lays claim are currently held.
Population: Nearly three thousand souls in all live in the realm of Mairon, a mighty host of the scions of nearly dead Atlantis.
Manpower: Three hundred men of the age of war serve the Black and Gray, the Barad-Dur that stands at the heart of the power of the old times. They fight in serried ranks of heavily armored pikemen and more nimble pavaise longbowmen, a force to be reckoned with upon any battlefield.

These Descriptions are how you personalize your nation. In a short summary please describe how your nation performs in the following categories. No Numbers!
Libertarianism-Totalitarianism: The State is all but omnipresent, governing most aspects of the lives of those who live in the lands of the Tower. Security and prosperity are assured, and as long as one follows the law, the government cares little for what its citizens do. The impressors and inspectors of the Tower keep an eye on the affairs of the land, and collect taxes and levies for the power of Cottbus.
Large ruling class-Small ruling class: The smallest; Scion Marion holds absolute power, with his governors being appointed at his will alone. The next most powerful man in the land is the Marshal who leads his armies, but the drop in power from Marshal to Scion is far indeed.
Moralistic-Ruthless: Ruthless. Unkerlant is a land of hard men and hard times, and none can look for mercy or generosity from their fellows. The Unkerlanters would have it no other way. They are men of stone and rock, bones of the earth given flesh, and the weak are only fit to be broken.
Diplomatic-Militaristic: Unkerlant is a mercurial faction, known for her curt position on diplomacy. Though slow to go to war, Mairon's memory is long and his insanity only barely checked, and Unkerlant is known for her border wars and blunt diplomatic corps.
Expansionist-Isolationist: Marion the Admirable sees himself as the true successor to the glory and power of Atlantis. As such, all lands held to belong to him, though the reason in his madness occasionally checks feckless desire.


Special Resources: Unkerlant's only resources are men and land, of which she has many to spare.
Brief (Paragraph) Description of your nation's history: Before the Deluge the southlands lay in the upland region of Atlantis, high glens of mountain shepherds and foresters. The father of Mairon, a prominent nobleman of great renown with the people, fell out of favor with the religious elite. In a widely known spat he accused some of the more opulent of corruption and poisoning the ideals of the True Way, and was banished to the highlands as a result, on pain of excommunication. When the rains fell and the lowlands drowned, he and those loyal to him were spared, and in the aftermath he took this sign as a vindication from the Gods, a chance to begin anew with the rotten old structure of Atlantis stripped away. He and his people drew many to them, forging a new kingdom from the ashes of the old world, and eventually Mairon succeeded him as king.

When the rains fell and the lowlands drowned, he and those loyal to him were spared, and in the aftermath he took this sign as a vindication from the Gods, a chance to begin anew with the rotten old structure of Atlantis stripped away. He and his people drew many to them, forging a new kingdom from the ashes of the old world, and eventually Mairon succeeded him as king.
RP Example: (Either a link to one of you previous RPs, or a good example of your RPing style.)
ATL - Do not remove. This is so I/co-OPs can find your apps.


Accepted.
AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

Fair enough, but a RP with a sluggish OOC and a nonexistent IC is highly unlikely to attract participants. We have fiveish nations, at last count, and that's enough to at least kick a RP high enough for low orbit.

Sorry guys, but my schedule's full at the moment, and though I still want this RP to go on, I don't think I'll be able to OP it.

I've been planning to join this RP (my first as well) and been thinking about it a couple of days now, and just as i'm about to submit an app, this happens. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, I guess.
