Eh. True.

Also, other things I meant to reply to:

Gres, imo, you writing by yourself would shame collabs written by the cooperation of entire other RP groups...

Thanks. I try.

At least you are writing, I've had the same story idea for two years and wrote the entire thing twice, then realized how irredeemably shit it was and tried to start over with a similar concept about ten times, now I'm trying again with the original idea with less changes and I can't get past 1,000 words because I know how bad the original two times I tried it came out.

EDIT: Oh and it doesn't help that I found out last month that the story idea is very similar to something that's already been published. Not something popular, but if I ever got popular with this idea I'd get accused of being a ripoff.

Originality is dead. Just put the most interesting personal spin you can on something and hope for the best.

Yeah well, still probably didn't need their names blasted across the site. But this is old news that's discussion will lead nowhere. Anyway, here's my question from earlier....

Should I stick with the island, or go with a Northern land or a Southern desert?

Edit: Actually, how about an Eastern style land for a sort of Marco Polo/Ibn Battuta type situation? Not many of those around here.

The Beasts of Aethion
While there are certainly many, many races in the World of Aethion, there are also many things Called Monsters and Magical Beasts. These two types of Creatures are very similar yet different.

---

Monsters

They are very similar to Magical beasts as they were once normal animals or beings that ingested powerful magic, but this magic was unstable and corrupt changing the being forever. Monsters are only created through magical corruption, thus any of the magical beasts or even one of the Races could become something called a Monster. They cannot be born, atleast not normally, some exceptions may occur rather rarely, and these exceptions are ill omens indeed.

---

Archons

Archons are massive bipedal creatures that look like a combination of a Dragon and a Demon. They possess wings, and extremely durable scales as well as Horns and Talons. These beings are rather rare, and are extremely cunning and intelligent; often laying cruel traps should they know they are being followed. They are capable of seemingly commanding other monsters, though this may be due to a strength difference than an actual hierarchy. This is because Archons have been seen fighting massive monsters at times as well. They possess a massive physical strength fitting of their size, but their main asset lies not with their physical strength but their maneuverability in the air and the amount of magic power they possess. Though these traits are ample reason enough not to willingly engage these monsters, some do simply because nearly every part of them, much like dragons, has some magical use, usually being made into relics and mediums.

This woll be the format for the bestiary for my fantasy rp. How does it look, i will take suggestions.

Imagine, if you will, a world where magic is a reality. A place where a few men and women have the ability to harness the power of magic. What would this world be like? How different would this world be from ours?

This is the world of Vodel. A world where magic is a force of nature, like the wind or the billowing seas. A world where technology has advanced from primitive metals to automobiles, airplanes, radios and machineguns. This is also a world where the long shadow of war reaches far across the world, ready to strike down millions, but the blow has not come.

Across the Continent great empires have arisen. Powered by their massive industrial might and the powers of there mages these nations have begun a dangerous game. Each is attempting to gain preeminence in the world in all areas. Who has the largest military? The most mages? The largest colonies? The most advanced technology?

But the great powers can't become all powerful on their own. A web of alliances, pacts and lies have added a further element of danger to the already brewing storm. If a war starts between to nations, all the nations on the Continent will be dragged in. It will only take the slightest nudge and the whole world will feel the fires of war.

Magic

A single mage can be worth ten machine guns or a hundred riflemen in a battle. Therefore it is of vital importance that a commander keeps his mages both alive and willing to do their duty.

Excerpt from Thomas Refords "A Treasty on Magic and Mages in the Modern Battlefield

Magic, in its most purest, simplest form is the manipulation of energy. Mages them selves come in two varieties, those who were born with the abilities, and those who learned to harness magical energy. Of the two the latter are by far the rarest and are the most powerful mages in existence. Learned mages are sensitive to the energies of magic when the are born, but lack the ability to manipulate it. It takes most of a young learning mage's childhood to hone their focus enough to manipulate energy. There are four kinds of energies that exist, natural energy which is incapable of being manipulated by magical means and then there are three magical energies. Respectively the three magical energies are lay lines, auras, and the soul. Lay lines are the very life force of the universe and the flow between the stars, the planets, and the atoms that make up the stars and the planets. Auras are the byproduct of natural function within a living thing. The soul is the essence of a living thing. All magic has a give and a take, nothing is free in the universe this applies well in the practice of magic. If for instance mage casts a spell there will be a physical fee for doing so. This can be a mental toll, with the mage becoming drowsy or hallucinations. Most often the toll is physical, pain and exhaustion is most common but the effects of using magic very from person to person. Elemental magic is the manipulation of lay lines. Lay lines, simply put, are conduits of energy that flow from atom to atom, planet to planet, and star to star. This energy is the most basic building block of the universe, it binds the nucleus of atoms together, is the kickstart in star formation. In essence lay lines are the vines of the universe, moving magical energy from place to place. Since lay lines are all around us the are readily available for manipulation. A mage who utilises lay lines will often cast spells that take the form of the classical elements. Elemental magic is there for broken into four major groups and a varying number of smaller sub groupings of magic. Fire The purest form of magic, Fire magic is the manipulation of pure energy unaltered to any other form. Pyromancy: The manipulation and creation of fire. Electromancy: Similar to pyromancy except with electricity. Boomers: Boomers concentrate large amounts of energy into a confined space creating a large explosion. Boomers are limited in range, the farther from the caster the less powerful the explosion. Water Aquamancy is the only discipline recognized in the Water grouping. Aquamancers are able to use all forms of water much like a pyromancer can use and create fire. Earth Ferromancers: Ferromancers can manipulate objects made out of iron our iron based substances. Often ferromancer use their powers to create bladed weapons on the fly and are accomplished in hand to hand combat. Siliomancer: Siliomancer have there powers derived in the manipulation of Silicon and silicon compounds, which in short gives them power over most rocks and earth. They are often used to carve out fortification, but crushing your enemies between multiple tons of stone is useful as well. Air Aromancers, as their name implies, have control over the air. In combat aromancers use blasts of air to knox enemies around and can use these air plasts to jump multiple times there hight. Auras are the byproduct of living systems. Every natural process within the body adds to an aura, a sheth of energy around the living organism. The aura contains no information about the creature it surrounds like a soul. Auramancers can manipulate auras, either by using the energy to complete a task or creating an artificial aura to attack to object either as a construct or as a curse. Biomancy Biomancers use the aura of a living thing to mend a flaw. Biomancer are always used in hospitals and in battlefield medicine. A Biomancer also needs a vast knowledge of anatomy and physiology since they are rebuilding organic material and must know all the intricacies of the human body. Biomancers are unable to rebuild bead tissue, or rebuild completely destroyed organs or limbs. Artificers Artificers are able to form an aura around a nonliving inorganic object creating a construct. Constructs are often used as other machines and in battle often are used as assault weapons. Since a construct is unable to replenish its aura like a living thing it will eventually revert to it unliving form. Curses Curses are aura attached to object or to people that give them a temporary effect. A flame sword, negating a person the ability to move, those sort of things. Curses can be transferred from one object to another, effectively creating magical land mines. Necromancy is the manipulation of the soul, something that is held sacred by most people. A Necromancer is able to either use a small portion of their soul, or rip the soul out of the still living body of a person to attach it to a dead thing creating a zombie. Necromancy is illegal nearly all nations and is punishable by death. Since necromancers are such a large taboo not much is known about them, how their powers work, if they have any more abilities. What is known in the above paragraph is all the information on them. Other than their abilities, necromancers tend to hide their powers, often learning another magical art to further mask their forbidden art. These people live for years without being found out, many only revealing their secrets on their deathbeds. There are however those who embrace their dark power. Often these deranged individuals form small cells that operate in major cities, raising the odd zombie and using their creations for murder and mayhem. There are however rumors of a group of necromancers calling themselves The Council. It is unknown what this group wants or how they operate. They have been blamed by many of the common people for recent events in Anderhoven, Rickiveg, and Elosia that have so recently brew the threat of war to the forefront of most people's minds. In fact they are so shadowy that most police and military organisation discount their existence as nothing more than scary stories. Alchemy is technically not a magical discipline, rather it is an infusion of magic into chemistry. Alchemists use special stones, tables, and other enchanted objects to manipulate natural chemical reactions. There are tables that cause Iron to rust into gold and other precious metals. Will that may be useful it requires are powerful Auramancer to do such a feat, and the side effects of such spell could be devastating. Alchemy is useful in the creation of thurm, an oily liquid that burns at extremely high temperatures and is nearly impossible to put out. Thurm is used in industrial application, such as steel production and in military vehicles as a booster to gasoline. A controversial use of thurm is on the battlefield. Putting it in artillery shells and as a fuel for flamethrowers. Alchemist are also incredibly interested in creating what is called the Elixir of Life, a drink that can give eternal life unto mortals. Naturally this mythical drink has been sought for by kings and emperors for millennia. The greatest mystery in the creation of the Elixir is one ingredient, a single human soul. But how does one get a soul without necromantic powers? This has lead most alchemists to attempt to create artificial souls.

The World

[url]World Map Here[/url]

The world is in a dangerous situation. With each of the most powerful nations in the world forming up into alliances and pacts, each trying to become the biggest and most powerful. These nations only need the slightest provocation to send them tumbling into the abyss. The flash that will ignite the world is already starting, in the ancient empire of Anderhoven the emperor lies dying with no heir to his throne. In Havelhien the Kaiser claims the throne of his cousin. In the west the democratic nation of Telveria and Elosia watch as Havelhien readies itself to gain the whole of Anderhoven and become the most powerful nation on the continent. To the east lies Rickiveg, a behemoth of a nation plagued with inept leadership and a collapsing economy. The Emperor of Rickiveg sees Anderhoven as a means of salvation for his nation, after all isn't his wife the Anderhovian emperor's daughter? As the dying king draws nearer to his last breath the sides are bieng taken. The Western Alliance of Telveria and Elosia, determined to let no one take the throne of Anderhoven, the Central League of Havelhien and Anderhoven, determined to drive both the Alliance and Rickiveg out of there territory, and Rickiveg, standing alone, a desperate nation in desperate times. This is the world. Elosia is an island nation located of the western shores of the Continent. While the island itself may be devoid of important resources such as oil and rubber, there is plenty of coal and in the north there a giant deposits of iron ore. This lead Elosia to be one of the first nations to industrialise two hundred years ago. Since Elosia needed a large amount of rubber, oil, and other resources that it didn't have naturally the nation expanded through colonialism. With it early industrialization the island nation was able to create a large network of colonies and trade posts all thought the world, the East, The Far West, and into the South. Other nation tried to compete with the Elosian colonial empire, but none have come close. Given that it is an island nation Elosia invest a considerable sum into its navy, both to protect its shores and its sea lanes. The Elosian army is made up of both volunteers from the island and colonial troops drawn from loyal citizens in their respective colonies. The Elosian government is a constitutional monarchy. The king is the official head of the government with the prime minister effectively being the voice of the king's will. The parliament is made up of three houses, the Commons, the High Lords, and the Low Lords. The Commons are made out of what was once the low born peasant classes, today they are middle and upper class members with no titles. There are five High Lords, this small group is generally in charge of millitary affairs. The High Lords chose 20 lesser houses to form the Low Lords who act as a senate within the parlement. All characters start in the Elosian capital of Tallhouse Telveria is a nation that has just come out of a time of internal strif. Fifty years ago Havelhien invaded the coal rich Arcan region. The humiliation of this stinging defeat had a more profound effect than the loss of land. The common people of the nation became dissatisfied with the crown and overthrew it, replacing the monarch with a republican form of government. Since the formation of the republic, Telveria has always been cold towards its eastern neighbour. With the question of Anderhovean succession on the forefront of all the Continental powers Telveria has entered an alliance with Elosia and has issued a general statement to Havelhien. If the Kiser is to take the throne of Anderhoven it will mean war with Telveria. Rickiveg is the largest nation in the world, but it is considered the sick man of the world. It sheer size makes it difficult to govern effectively. On top of that is an inefficient rail system, poor roads and recently a bad harvest. Corrupt official over tax the poor to line their own pockets. The only hope for Rickiveg is for a great change. Emperor Dmitry Ustinov sees the issues his people face, but is unable to change anything. He has tried to fix the corruption that threatens his nation. His reward was the death of his son. The throne of Anderhoven is his only hope to fix his nation. Anderhoven, with it natural wealth and location give it an advantage in trade. With his claim in hand he mobilizes his army to wage war against the Kaiser, and the Alliance if need be. Havelhine, the dominate power in the north of the continent. Not to long ago there was no country called Havelhine, just a collection of small kingdoms that all shared the Haveliane culture and language. That changed in 1857 when Telvaria attacked the Kingdom of Winechstien. This lead the three other kingdoms to join in the war. By the end of what the Havalianes call the War of Unity the four kingdoms had united into Havelhine. Fifty years later Havelhine still stands as the greatest industrial power on the continent. With abundant natural resources Havelhine lacks a large colonial empire like Elosia and Telveria. The current Kaiser, Friedrich von Holsien, has been particularly conscious of this fact and has expressed his interest in taking the colonies of Telveria and Elosia in a war. Since the Kaiser and the Emperor are cousins Frederick has a very strong claim to Anderhovens throne. This has put him in direct conflict with his traditional enemy in Telveria and with his larger eastern neighbour Rickiveg. This has put Havelhine into a difficult situation, a war on two fronts. Yet the war drums have deffened the Kaiser as he marches his country to war. Anderhoven, the spark that will start the war. The oldest empire on the Continent, Anderhoven traces its history back all the way to the 1300's. Since 1500 the Kolstien family has ruled over the empire. Now with the las Kolstien emperor falling deathly ill, his heirs dead, and nationalist movement taking hold in the multitudes of cultures and nations that are within the borders of the empire. Currently the Emperor has not declared his support for either of the two claimants to the throne. Many Anderhoveans support the claim of the Kaiser, while many in the eastern region believe that the Emperor of Rickiveg is their savior from the oppression of the Imperial government. Hazram, an empire as old as Anderhoven, ruled by the Sultan with and his collection of Emirs, priests and the special warrior cast called the Halsheek. Like its contemporary Anderhoven, Hazram too has experienced ethnic tension amongst the various people groups that make up the empire. The greatest source of this tension is religion. Within the empire there are nearly 30 different religions that the people of Hazram adhere to. Most are only followed be a small group of people. But all are different and all bicker amongst one another. This has lead to some groups to want their own nations. On top of this is a government even more corrupt than that of Rickiveg. In Hazram, even the Sultan in known to take bribes. Funds meant for public works and for the military are often diverted to the pockets of greedy Emirs who belive that they are above reproach. In recent years Hazram has shown little interest in the affairs of the Continent, save for trade. But with Havelhine looking for allies in its war against both Rickiveg and with the Alliance, the Kaiser has been sending the Sultan gifts and better trade deals. In return the Sultan recently signed a deffense pact with the northern empire. The Sultan hopes that a Havalalien victory will cause more wealth to flow into his nation, and consequently, into his pocket. Far across the Middle Ocean lies the Far West, discovered by explorers from the west in the year 1435 and colonized by nearly all the powers of the Continent. But the age of colonial control is a distant memory for the Far West, with nearly all the colonies gaining independence by the year 1832. The first of these colonies to establish independence was the Elosian colonies located upon the eastern seaboard of the continent. From 1756 onto 1773 Colonials fought Elosian regulars. Eventually the Elosians had enough of the war, the expenses were mounting and the bodies were piling up. Thus the Republic was formed. Over the next century and a half the Republic has grown in size, from the Middle Ocean all the way to the glimmering shores of the Easter Ocean. Nearly as large as Rickiveg the Republic is a well managed nation with abundant natural wealth and a hard working populace. This has lead to a massive boom in the Republic's economy. Given the recent instability on the Continent the Republic has chosen to stay neutral, after all it's not there war. Even so many within the nation question weather the Republic will be able to stay neutral for long, 60% of it exports go to the Continent, and half of that goes to Elosia and Telveria. When war does come there will be severe economic consequences for the young nation. Than there is the outside pressure to join the war. Elosia and Telveria have repeatedly asked the Republic to join in the Alliance, and the Kaiser has said that if the Republic were to join the war Havelhine would " Chase them back across the ocean with broom sticks". Yet the current Congress, and the president have done everything to stay out of war.

General Information Character Name: Chase Morgan Appearance: coming soon Age: 32 Sex: male Bio: Chase Morgan was born as the youngest child in the House of Morgan, one of the minor houses within Elosia. When he was born it was assumed that the young child would eventually take the place of his father has head of the house and sit in his spot within the Low Lords. But as fate would have it Chase would rarely see the Morgan Estate. The first signs that something was odd with the young Morgan child came to light when he was four. They were by far no small thing, curtains setting a fire when Chase was near, chars burning in the middle of rooms with nothing else being affected. This caused, to say the least, great worry in his parents. Most of all it caused his father distress. Chase was a mage and, by law, young mages are to be sent to a school for training and eventual military service. This was the fate of Chase Morgan, to become a weapon in the service of the Elosian crown. So for the next 12 years of his life Chase lived at the Mages School, honing his skill as a mage. Learning military tactics and other things that would be useful to his life as a soldier. When he was sixteen Chase was sent from the School to be used in the field, spending the next 15 years of his life jumping back and forth from the Southern Colonies to the Elosian home land. While in the colonies Chase experienced the horrors of modern warfare. It was the first time he used his power to kill another human being. Two tribes of natives in the colonies had been warring for generations. This was fine for the Elosians, the tribes were hunter-gatherers and provided little to the general wealth of the colony. But that changed one day. The two tribes both ended up migrating to the same city to trade. The resulting riot was enough for the local police forced to request the aid of the military. For three days Elosian troops surrounded the city and slowly began to move inwards. Anyone caught in the open streets was gunned down, or on the receiving end of a mage's spell. At the end of three days the riot was suppressed, but the dead littered the streets and much of the city was ruined. This first taste of combat shook Chase. The smell of burning flesh and the screams of the burning would forever haunt his dreams. Eventually Chase managed to get a high enough rank to be transferred to Tallhouse. Now, on the eve of the greatest war to ever be fought in history Chase finds himself a Lieutenant Major serving with the 301st Foot Guards. The 301st are a old unit, first raised in the War of Independence in the Far West. The 301st are light infantry, meant to get close and get away fast. How this will work in a war with Havelhine is up to debate. But either way Chase will find himself once more in the horror and confusion of war. Mage?: Yes Nationality: Elosian

Mage Information Learned Mage?: No Born Mage?: Yes Mage Type: Pyromancer

Miscellaneous Information Likes: Good tobacco, brandi, using his mage powers to impress people Dislikes: Using his mage powers to kill, causing death, making decision that will get people killed. Personality: Chase is rather quiet, often in thought. He can seem a little cold at time

So would anyone be interested? Are there things I should add to make it better. There are still some thing I need to do before it fully ready though.
