[HEADING=2]The Fourth War[/HEADING]


It was the beginning of a new era. The third war had finally finished. The elves and dwarves fighting for survival against the humans wish for reign over Iroka.

Iroka was thought to be the new lands of the Humans, when they first discovered it. But little did they know, that the sea was controlled by Naga and the lowland was controlled by Goblins. The humans wiped out most of these races, and built a large kingdom known as Ylandrir.

After the first war, against the Naga, the humans managed to build ports and trade with the other human kingdoms across the sea.

After the second war, with the goblins, they built farms and villages along with coastlines at first. But as they began to move in-land, they realised that the threat was not over yet.

Then began, the third war. The Dwarves from Strangletop Mountain united with the Elves from Red Lake Forest.

The humans fought them for terretory, they so despereatly desired. But they also realised that the Dwarves and Elves were more intelligent than the Goblins and more powerful than the Naga. The war ended ten years later, by the slaying of the Human King, Kael, the humans surrendered. The Elves accepted, for they had lost many of their people in the war, but the Dwarves were very sketchy of their surrender, but went with it, from trust in the elves.

After the third war, the Dwarves began to build village by village on the low land beneath Strangletop, and the Elves began to move out of Red Lake forest.
A few years later, as the new era of human, elf and dwarf had just only begun, they had been living in harmony, trading and building united cities. The Capital Ylandrir became the capital of whole Iroka, not controlled by one King, but three. One King from each race.

But as the new treaty had been signed, as the capital had been raised from its burned stature, just as soon as trading routes had reached the North, Ylandrir?s Kings received word of a new threat. A new enemy had risen from his grave. The fallen angel known as Daedre from story tales and books, had been seen on the far end of the Northern reach. No man, dwarf or elf had ever set foot on that land, none had ever gone so far North and lived to tell the tale, and now, the reason was discovered. Daedre was lurking about the North. He had attacked the newly set trade post. As this new threat had emerged, Ylandrir has asked for all adventurers ready to silence Daedre and his minions, once and for all.


Templates:
Name: (Ty to be creative)
Gender:
Race: (Dwarf elf or human)
Age: (Elves have triple aging system, so if you?re 20 in human years, you are 60 in elf years.)
Fighting Style: (Melee combat style, ranged combat style, martial arts...)
Armor: (chainmail, platemail, cloth, leather.)
Weaponry: (You may have a giant waraxe shaped like a skull, or a bow made from bones, but try to make it medieval and believable)

Name: Jothren
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Age: 34
Fighting Style: Melee Weaponry
Armor: Chainmail
Weaponry: A claymore, handle is made from steel and red dragon hide. Blade is handcrafted by himself from a mixture of mithril, making it incredibly light. It's inscribed with 'Sins of our Fathers' on the lower side of the blade.

Dwarf: Able to hold their ale, as well as their weapons. They are experienced fighters along with great builders. Their home is Strangletop Mountain, from which they mine gold and silver. Make armor and weaponry and sell it on local low-land markets. They make good warriors for their excessive strength and stamina, and a lively heart for battles.

Elf: They have lived in the woods for generations not even countable. They grow all sorts of vegetables and fruit in their forest of Red Lake. Which surrounds a small lake, un-accessable by ship or boat. Narrow rivers lead only to said lake, making the fish there, untainted by foreign hands. They take all this food to their markets outside Red Lake, since only elves are allowed to step into Red Lake forest. They tend to be peaceful, but when comes to weaponry, their mithril armor and weapons, along with a special breed of cavalry and soldiers, they are remarkable in combat. They make good scouts, for their natural flexibility and light feet.

Human This race is known for its remarkable siege weapons and great kingdoms. This race tends to travel and seek new lands to explore, such is the case of Iroka. In numbers, the humans are great in battle, but man vs. man is not something they're good at. They tend to be good at bargaining, leadership and speech, also make quite the marksmen. The humans trade with Duis island for powder and oil, and from a kingdom in the west called Ulindra, they get spices and exotic food supplies, all in exchange for the food from the elves and ore from the dwarves. So even after the war, the humans find their way to manipulate the races, instead of destroying them.

Events: Events will occur throughout the game, where you are thrown into a situation and you must choose the right option to get out of the situation. Every option has a different ending, some events effect only a selected few, some only effect one of the players, and some events effect the whole group.

Rules:
1. GM?ing is limited to GM?s only. Thats me and Silverwings. Now on the other hand, you are allowed to make other player characters speak to you, either if that subject has already occured in the RP or that player has agreed on it.
2. Try to stay in character and try to do as little OOCs as possible, and if any, please do it in a spoiler.
3. If you have any questions, difficulties or suggestions, contact either me, or Silverwings.
4. Have a blast! :D

The game will start where we have all intreduced eachother and already are at the castle meeting hall. We´ve all been intreduced to the subject of our assignment and we?ve all been given a horse to ride.

Character sheets will either be PMd to me or Silverwings, and i will put them all in the beginning post in spoilers, once i have all of them. Either PM them or type them down here. Any questions you will ask i will answer as soon as i read them, and all suggestions will be put to notice.

I don't think that forest-dwelling Elves would have the resources, nor the technology, to manufacture or use gunpowder. That's strictly Dwarven territory, and I don't think iceland wants guns in this.

On the contrary, pirate-like pistols are fine, but they must be used on strict bases, hence slow reload... and btw dwarves trade with humans and elves and vice versa in all directions. So he cud've bought the gun and powder :)

Of course, we still need more players. So far, we only have four, if you count Silverwings. That's a little small, yes?

So you're character is the equivalent of a human 9-year-old? Humans age three times as fast as elves, so multiply 27 by 3. He should be about 80.

[HEADING=3]Chapter One: Accommodating Reinforcements[/HEADING]

As the people started to group up in the large room they began to grow tired of waiting.
Soon enough the elven king stepped into the room and sat down at a large wooden table in the middle.
As everyone sat down at the table aswell, he began.

You all have been invited here to deal with the Northern Threat Daedre. As you all know, he is well known in child stories and tales of battles. Until this point, we thought that he had been killed. We elves knew he was out there five hundred years ago. Long before even the first war began. Long before tales of this great lands had reached foreign ears. We tried sending an army to fight him, while he was weak, while he was still just a fallen angel. But he has grown stronger. Three hundred years ago, fifty years before you humans stepped on this land, we sent our best man to kill Daedre. General Tawer was sent to the north to destroy him, but up to this day we have not even heard word of him. Or his army. Some people say he went rogue and joined Daedre, some say he hid in the caverns in the east. Some believe he is simply dead, but that does not change what we are dealing with. You, gentlemen, are the best this kingdom has to offer, and you ... shall be trusted with this great task now. Your first task is to acquire reinforcements with the Trolls, try and convince them, that the future of Iroka is at stake, and pray they will help us. You are all equal in skill and traits, and therefor, your joined strength shall be the force to bring down this threat, but not alone. Go to the Trolls, we know not if their alliance still stands with us elves, or that Daedre has taken them to his side. Horses have been stabled outside these doors. But once you leave here, you will become Iroka's only hope of survival. Farewell gentlemen and i hope you succeed.

With these words, the elven king left the great chamber. As the door behind him sealed shut, the door behind the group opened.

Well then, we should hurry then.

Jothren stood up and began to walk out the doors.

"Load of rubbish, this Elven king knows he's in danger, so he's called us to help."

Ethonious stood up from the table, and followed Jothren out of the door.
