Kegyeleem: Magic and Realms
For years, the civilized tribes lived in peace and harmony in Kegyeleem on the supercontinent known as Haza. Until the World Killers attacked ...
The World Killers - vile beasts, with the appearance of demons, but the powers of gods. These two kinds clashed - man, and the World Killers who called themselves “Sakatkin”. It was a bloody conflict that lasted for generations.
Mankind was on the verge of destruction. But then, legend has it that in the final battle of the War for Kegyeleem, the Battle for Haza, a man showed up. Blessed by the gods, he used all the power of the gods at once to smite the World Killers and finally end the war between the two species. This legendary figure is commonly known as the Light Bringer.
However, the blow was too destructive for Kegyeleem to handle. Using all the power of the gods at once had consequences. So, in order so mankind wouldn’t perish, they say that the gods of Kegyeleem split up Haza into five continents - Tulivag (east), Goggled (north), Vutreshnost (middle), Zuid-land (south), and Amrica (west). This period is known as the Drift, which took place over the course of a hundred years.
Centuries after in 700 AD (After Drift), on the continent of Tulivag, humanity and the civilized species are once again prosperous, living in peace and harmony. However, some say otherwise. Some say that one day, the Sakatkin will rise again to wreak havoc on mankind. And, the Light Bringer will be reborn as the King to Come, and he’ll have to return to smite the World Killers once more.
Chapter 1
800 years have passed since the Sakatkin beasts have been eradicated, when the world was once a feuded battleground between humans and the World Killers. Humanity and the related species rule the world, scattered in the many continents building civilizations and kingdoms.
In the continent of Tulivag, the Empire of Nosewagania under Emperor Horcegus II has conquered it's long time rival Sakatia, consuming every bit of land it had. But there are rumors of rebellion breaking out among the counts and dukes in the conquered land, what shall become of the great Empire? And more importantly, how will the realms and people in Tulivag play into this?
Chapter 2
The stage is set.
Destiny will come. As new faces show up continuing their quests and crusades, they shall find out their destinies and what it means for each of them.
World tensions are rising. The realms once enjoyed a great period of peace and prosperity, but now they’ve found new quarrels. War will come. It’s not a matter of if, but when. So, what will be the catalyst to spark rebellion, and war? And, how will each Realm fit into it?
And finally, a red comet has come, flashing across the night sky for all living things in Kegyeleem to see. “To herald his arrival, a star of red shall shine bright across the night sky,” as it says in the King to Come prophecy. If the prophecy is true, then that means the King to Come has come. So, who is the King Who Has Come, the new Light Bringer? And, what does this mean for Kegyeleem?
War is coming. A red comet heralds the King and Savior’s arrival. What will this mean for the destiny of Kegyeleem and all those in it? We shall see, for it all depends on the realms and the people in it.
OOC
How this will work/Game Mechanics
Hello, everyone, and welcome to Kegyeleem! A world of magic and realms! There may be some questions, so I'll clarify what I can.
This is a medieval fantasy rp. Basically, it's a world where magic exists and there are different continents and it’s medieval tech. It shall take place on the continent of Tulivag. This will be more character-based, but there's room for military rp.
You will fill out an application. You have two choices: play as a realm and ruler of a realm, or as just a character within Tulivag and/or a realm in Tulivag. If you play as a realm, then please also fill out an app for a character for a better description of the leader of that realm. As I said, this will be more character based.
Provided you follow the simple rules we have, you can rp your character and/or realm in this magical world. If you use magic, make sure you ask the other recipient for permission. Looming in the background, Co-OPs Oppermenia and Dyllonia will be rping the development of the main storyline, which will be divided into multiple chapters.
Rules
1. No godmodding. This means you can not dictate what other character say, do, or how much damage they (or their forces) take in violent scenarios like brawls and militaristic combat UNLESS YOU HAVE THEIR PERMISSION.
2. No instant movement. This is part of godmodding. The rule means that you can't instantly transport armies and/or characters to other lands. Like an army in one continent can't transport itself to another in a single post or a character cannot visit another kingdom without a post indicating their travel. Be realistic in timing.
3. Keep OOC (out of character) comments out of IC (in character) thread(s) whenever you can; we don't want our RP to be mixed up in OOC arguments where others are roleplaying.
4. No OP technology or character. No firearms or modern weapons rifles or machine guns. This is set in medieval times and medieval technology is what we will use. Also no character can be overpowered; like your character cannot be an immortal god who cannot be killed. ALL CHARACTERS MUST BE KILLABLE
5. When doing a military roleplay storyline, please discuss how the battle will go with the other player involved before you rp it. This way, things will be simpler. Also, if you do a war, have a causus beli.
6. Have fun!
Andsed and Higher Japan has the power to enforce these rules.
The Apps
Keep in mind: you should only have three characters, not including the family members and more minor characters of a main character of yours, and if you do a Realm, then fill out a character app for a better description of your ruler.
Without further ado, here’s the RP! Please fill out an app, and if you’re accepted then you can RP on the ic thread (will be up when we have enough people). Most importantly, have fun with this!
