So the part near the Corruption? which would make sense with your backstory.

I guess, but not too near so that it comes too quick and gets knocked out of the RP. I was thinking just very close to the coast.

Well, you DID have to fight off the Corruption.....So obviously it's somewhat close.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. You think it's too close or should I change my backstory? Anything you wanna go with is fine with me, I will fix that religion part like you asked though.

You could say that they enlisted the help of the Church of Light to keep the Corruption at bay for longer.

I like that idea, thanks. And the Church of Light can be their religion. Also since I wrote it in my backstory, Arrendal is somewhat close to the Corruption since it's the only way that'll make sense.

Cool. Edited my app.


Name: Nasuada Jundora
Title(S): Queen of Arrendal, Duchess of Blackpool, High Lady and Defender of the Faith
House Name: House Jundora
Sigil: Image
Appearance: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q ... 9297263351
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Bio: Princess Nasuada was born to King Ridon and Queen Saralyn of Arendal as their second child. Her older brother Aaron was the heir apparent and destined to be king so for a long time Nasuada was educated in the typical arts of a princess and not prepared for rulership. However her father did give her a superb academic education and allow her to study the sword and bow as well as equestrian fighting styles. One day, the Corruption came to the land after the Fall, and the main thing was to keep it away from their kingdom so Aaron rode out at the head of their army to go and fight the threat. They kept it from their kingdom for the time being but at a terrible price, the crown prince was slain by a Corrupted mage so they could not even bring his body back to be buried. With her brother's death, Nasuada was named heir and so started her ruler's training at thirteen and then ascended the throne at twenty following the death of her father. While still a teen, Nasuada was discovered to be a mage and her father made her attend magic school to control her emotions, only being able to return with her father's passing. Not many even know that their queen has magic and she has gained superb control over her emotions.
Equiptment: a wizard's wand, potions. food and water, horses, and spell scrolls.
Magic: Nasuada is an Ice Mage, meaning she has the power to control and create ice and snow as well as having the ability to lower the temperature of and freeze things, even people.

Kingdom Name: Arrendal

Kingdom description: It's a tropical kingdom but fairly temperate in its northern parts. It has the appearance typical of its province so it has thick rainforests all around and has humid and rainy weather. The culture is similar to that of medieval France/Ireland and is marked by elegant stone castles and the elegant and beautiful fashions of the nobles, typically brightly colored.
Government type: Absolute monarchy
Economical status: rich
Number of people in Kingdom: 950,000
Number of Soldiers:(Keep it reasonable) 40,000
Does your Kingdom contain any of the notable locations: No
Kingdom Type: Maritime fishing/trading kingdom
King: Nasuada I
Uru, Queen of Diamonds.

Name:Attius Reland
Age:30
Appearance: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/5/56/Edmure_Tully.jpg
Gender:Male
Bio: Attius was born the third son of a minor lord in Arrendal. Knowing that he would not become the ruler of his ancestral land, Attius was trained for knighthood instead. He showed great skill and intelligence and even won the honor of being the squire of crown Prince
of being the squire of crown Prince Aaron. He served under the Prince for multiple years and came to see him as an older brother. Atticus was there during the great battle when Aaron fell. He survived only by pretending to be dead. Atticus returned home to complete his training and was knighted at the age of 17. He quickly rose up through ranks of the military, at one point becoming the Queen's personal guard. He is now the captain of her guard and commander of her military. Attius secretly fancies Queen Nasuade but does not act upon it because of his lower birth and the feeling that he would be betraying her brother's memory.
Occupation:Captain of the Queen's Guard and Commander of army of Arrendal.
Faction: None
Religion:Church of Light
Magic: None

Looks good to me, but if Nuridia hasn't approved it with you already, they have to approve of it, as well.

A light room wouldn't really help against the Corruption. It can possess any mage, anywhere. I mean, it might make it harder for the corruption, but not stop it.


Perhaps I should have Taint visit kingdoms just to freak them out :P He wouldn't be as powerful outside the Corruption, nor would he be able to spread any from his form, so it would just be for 'fun'.

Well at least it would slow it down. Rather than run the risk of Corruption, Nasuada doesn't allow herself to feel at all but it's hard.

Makes sense. That's why there's schools to teach you how to control your emotions :P

OK

I also have another RP if any of you are interested :P It's in my signature.

Looks good, and I kinda feel like a good apocalypse RP right now, but it reminds me of the writing tip "Is this the most interesting part of your character's life and if not, why aren't you writing about that?" I prefer RPs caught in the midst of the apocalypse, not picking up the pieces 50 years later.

I kinda want to be a pilot in the post-apocalypse, though. Kinda acting as a messenger/courier, so I might apply. If you'll let my guy have a plane, that is.

Um. The only problem with the pilot thing is that the group has to stick together, and being able to fly everywhere kind of removes the dangers of traveling in the post-apocalypse.

Then you prefer apocalypse RPs, not post-apocalypse ones :P

United I understand that your character is supposed to be a badass. However I don't think that it reasonable for him to shoot someone off of a horse with a pistol. At the range I felt you were describing somewhere between 500-750 yards a pistol would not hit someone off of a horse. This is because as a bullet travels farther and farther it loses the kinetic energy it had previously.

Yes, a normal pistol will only have an effective range of about fifty meters. That's mainly due to the inaccuracy of the shooter, though. If he was experienced, he might be able to hit a target a bit further away.

A bit further away is not 500 meters
