searching The accursed dark sign: OOC- searching!

[Vae Victis 742]

A long time ago, there was a land of gray crags, archtrees, and everlasting dragons, who's stone scales granted them immortality... And then came fire. And with fire came disparity... Good an evil... Light and dark... From the depths, four great beings found the souls of lords and challenged the everlasting dragons for supremacy of the world. Lord gwyn, with his mighty lightning spears, peeled away the stones scales of the dragons. The witch of izalith and her daughters weaves great fire storms, and burned down all of the archtrees in which the dragons lived in. Nito, the first of the dead, weaved a miasma of death and destruction against the defenseless dragons. And seath the scaless, out of jealousy of his own kind, betrayed the everlasting dragons, while the furtive Pygmy, the receiver of the dark soul, was easily forgotten. It has been many centuries since these events, and humans came into existence. Many kingdoms were built, and lordran, home to the gods, is where our story takes place.

 

 

It is now present day. Discovered a long time ago, there is a curse that afflicts the dead, or should some say, the undead. When one dies, they become undead and are branded with the accursed dark sign. This mark will eventually cause them to turn into a " hollow " or a being with no mind or instinct except to kill and survive off of souls. To keep their sanity, the undead most find and consume " humanity" a black mass that looks somewhat like a soul. Humanity is rare, and some are even willing to kill for it... It can stave off the curse and even return you to the form that you looked like in life, but in the end... You are still an undead. Chosen undead or no, you can fall like the rest. The dark sign may make you somewhat of an immortal... But make no mistake. With each death, if you don't consume humanity, you will lose yourself and everything you hold dear...

 

 

 

The story starts off at the undead asylum, north of lordran. The circumstances of your death are known only to you. You were locked here by the undead crusade, who hunt down the undead and view them as abominations. As you lie there in your cell, awaiting the end of time, that small sliver of hope you have remaining keeps you sane... Maybe those in other cells have also retained their sanity... Perhaps, someone, someday, might take pity on your souls, and help you escape. However, being in the asylum, is much safer than being in lordran after how it's changed.....

 

 

The rules:

1. No being OP. a general rule to an RP. The monsters in lordran will take more than a few measley hits to kill

2. If your character is a flyer, then flight will be limited and cannot be sustained for long.

3. Just because you pick a class, doesn't mean you have to stick with it. Like the game, you can choose to have both physical and magical capabilities. Keep in mind that if you choose more than 3 paths to go down, it will be all watered down, but well rounded.

4. Romance is allowed. But don't get graphic.

5. Looking for 5-6 others. Once the spots are filled, we can begin.

6. No " insane but ultimate individual" personalities.

7. Even if you die, the undead curse will send you back to the bonfire. So expect to possibly be slain.

8. Have fun!

9. No alicorns

 

There will be covenants to join. It is advised that you join the covenant that you feel is best for your character.

 

The classes are-

Warrior- decent armor, shield, and sword off the bat. Has high strength and dexterity, so you can choose either physical path ( strength weapons, or weapons that require more skill to handle) more easily than most.

 

Knight- starts off with full knight armor, a good shield, and a good sword. Essentially a tank, you will start off heavy and will move slower, but can take more hits.

 

Wanderer- starts off with armored garbs and a scimitar along with a decent shield. You are adept at rolling and can attack fast, but can't take very many hits. Hint: dodge.

 

Thief: you start off in all black leather garbs. You have a dagger and a small shield. Your advantages lie in speed style fighting and attacking from behind. Higher dex than a wanderer, but even lower health and strength. Be careful.

 

Bandit: a high strength, high endurance character, but somewhat low dex. You start off with a bandit axe and a small shield, though it is decent. Your armor does not fully cover your body, so you are more exposed than others.

 

Hunter- the archery class. You start off with a short bow and 20 arrows, along with a short sword and a large leather shield with leather armor. You are okay a close quarters, but long range is where you shine.

 

Sorcerer- can cast soul sorceries with high intelligence, but has low dexterity and even lower strength. You start off with a staff, a buckler, and a small dagger. Try not to let enemies get too close. Starts with the spell soul arrow.

 

Pyromancer- decent strength but low dexterity. Armor Is actually tattered clothing so not very much defense. Starts out with a hand axe and a cracked wooden shield, along with a pyromancy hand and fireballs.

 

Cleric- good strength and faith. Starts out with a mace, a wooden shield, and cleric wool holy clothing that is actually somewhat decent light armor, on par with the wanderer's. Also starts with a talisman and the heal miracle.

 

Deprived- one who has nothing. Can go down any path he/she chooses, but is almost completely naked with only a club and a shield made of wood planks. All stats are equaled out.

 

Remember, souls are how you get stronger and are this world's currency. Use them wisely.

Agreed. The story is so well written that it tells itself in silence. If we get the appropriate members, I have high hopes for this roleplay
