His crown lit up the way,

 

As we moved slowly,

 

Past the wandering eyes

 

Of the ones that were left behind.

 

Though far away,

 

We're still the same.

 

Howling ghosts, they reappear

 

in mountains that are stacked with fear,

 

but you're a King

 

and I'm a Lionheart.

 

And as the world begins to end,

 

I'll be here

 

to hold your hand

 

Because you're my King

 

and I'm your Lionheart.

Hello all! Welcome to another RP hosted by BlackShardNixium. This is the first RP I have attempted after the dreadfully long "hiatus" I just got back from. King and Lionheart is a fantasy roleplay based off of a song by the same name, as well as a vague connection to personal experiance ((but only loosely)). It is also heavily influenced by various religions ((such as Wicca and Christianity)). It is after the time of Princess Luna’s 1,000 year banishment on the moon, but before Twilight became a princess.

DISCLAIMER:: The use of aspects from various religions is not meant to offend anyone in any way. So if somehow I do offend you, PLEASE tell me, and I will fix it. And just because aspects of religion are being used does not mean that your character will be forced to follow any "religion" that may be mentioned within the story.

 

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

 

 

It started with a murder. Then another. Then another. Suddenly, the streets of Canterlot aren't safe anymore. Ponies are locking their doors, closing the shutters, and hunkering down for the night, wondering who the next victim will be.; wondering who will be found, bloody and mutilated, the next morning. Another lost soul in Equestria. 

For one reason or another, you're here in Canterlot and you won't be leaving any time soon. The streets seem darker, more sinister, and no pony knows who could be waiting around every corner. The once posh, prosperous city is covered by an almost tangible blanket of fear, and the unease is only growing. In the coming days, you are pulled into a centuries-old conspiracy, dating all the way back to the Dark Ages. An ancient cycle, a curse written in shadows, a life lived twice over, and a debt payed in blood. Death is on the horizon.

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

​A bit vague, I know; but not to worry! As was previously mentioned, your character, for one reason or another, is in Canterlot. A malevolent killer is on the loose, and innocent ponies are paying the price in their own blood. Detectives don't know quite what to make of such a case, and have even considered calling for assistance from other cities. The killer is renowned for the strange, archaic runes they leave behind, as well as the bodies showing signs of ritualistic sacrifice. What's more is that each and every body is completely drained of blood.  

There's more to this case than meets the eye. And you're going to find out what. 

 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

PLEASE CHOOSE ONE

 ***This is where the aspects of religion come into play. All figures listed below are part of mythology/religion. You must choose one when you submit your character's information, as this will be EXTREMELY important later on. 

  • Typheus  -------> Taken
  •  
  • Cetus

  • Hephaestus  ------> Taken

I'll throw Atlas in. I choose Cetus.  You seem like you know what you're doing. Give us something to remember.

Is there an explanation of what each one is?

It is to be explained throughout the RP; though I honestly may just do away with its concept entirely. The story will remain relatively unchanged with or without it. Though it has to do with reincarnation and past lives.

Welp, I went over the rules again because you're your king and I'm your lionheart.

I'm not 100% sure about the reasoning of choosing the name of a God, or monster but I'll choose Nyx. It's got a nice ring to it.

What do you think of my OC Isle Cast, she could be a potential victim of the serial killer on the run, considering her unfortunate circumstances. When reading her sheet, please read "Manehatten" as "Canterlot." 

If Isle Cast does not fit well to the roleplay, then consider Stellar Nova instead. 

 

Thanks, Lionheart.

Dovashy makes me think of soap xD.

@ @Dovashy

 

It'll make much more sense further into the story, friend.

Bearing in mind that you have chosen Nyx, the perceived goddess of the night, I believe Stellar Nova would be a much better fit. But of course, the choice is still yours, as they are your characters.

@,

 

It's been a long time. How have you been?

 

I have a new OC in the making that I would be glad to use. Also, if you so desire, I will be quite happy to help you with DMing once more, but keep in mind that I have a rather long camp/college program hybrid thing that lasts for two weeks that I am unsure whether or not I will have internet access to.

 

Anyways, shoot me a PM if you want me to help you again, and... Hello! :D

It certainly has been a while.

I've been pretty good, actually. Better than I have been in a long while, but eh. Some days were busy and some weren't. I finally went and saw someone about all those little problems I have ((as it turns out, it's Manic Depression, and it's awful. But at least there is an explanation now.)) But I feel...better, you know? Like, inside and out. Plus, I managed to reconnect with a few old friends, so that was a major blast from the past. 

 

Anyway, yes to all of the above! I'll start summarizing everything I have so far and PM it to you as soon as I can...

 

and Hello to you, too! :D

It's been a long time, indeed. I, too, have been on quite a long hiatus recently due to some awful real-life pains. But I gotta say, I quite missed roleplaying with you guys~

 

Anyway, do count me in! I'll be using, once again, my OC Lume Greenpark, link in my signature below. And welcome back, Shardy. ;3

 

Oh, as for a faction(?), I'll pick Echidna if possible. ~Lionheart

Of course, friend! Its good to see you again. ^-^

I'll add you down to the OP asap. ((ooh, and Echidna isn't a faction, you'll find out who she is much later, though.))


****NOTE***

 

HURRAH~ Four more players needed until we can officially get started.


~~~NOTE 2~~~

 

I probably should have posted this yesterday along with the other note, but eh.

 

The playlist is finally done! I actually really, really enjoyed making this one, as I stumbled across a few new composers, and their music is absolutely stunning.

I must exert all the patience under my command to not be hyped...

@, As a heads-up, I am leaving on the 6th (Sunday) to transport myself for two weeks up to the northern parts of the country (a college program in a Catholic college in New Hampshire) where, if I even have internet at all (it is a distinct possibility I won't, after all) my time will be sorely reduced. Just so that I don't get kicked out for inactivity in that time frame. :P

Alright, I leave for my two-week-long camp tomorrow. Whether or not we have internet is debatable. Probably not, so don't get your hopes up. Most of today is going to be spent packing and trying to get the last of this relaxation thing out before a 9 hour drive.

 

So, in other words, SEE YA!
