Hey, Hue, I hope you meant "players". 😉
Florida's fantasy equivalent isn't meant to be discovered yet. 😀
-> Reminder for all.
Ok, let's get throught the boring stuff again. 😀
The setting is Parallel Earth.
Approximate age is 500-1000 AD. Approximate because we have non-human races and magic, so actual history and technology are different.
Calendar is different too.
Location is Constantinople's fantasy's equivalent. We can have just about anything in here, because it is the center of the known world. This should really help players with unusual chars. 🙂
Contact with far east should be limited, so if your chars come from an eastern culture, please post a *decent* reason to be here/there. 😀
I've posted several tidbits about the Morean Empire: it is mostly inhabited by Elves, Humans and Reptile/Dragon Men.
Other races [Dark Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Simians, are of course allowed and encouraged - *if* they have a good reason to leave their ancestral lands] 😉
Also, please remember that bearing arms withing the city is *forbidded*.
Most locals take a dim view on those who flash their weapons readily, and security level is *high*.
Local authority doesn't want free-lancing warriors to roam about, so, please, keep the number of fighting chars down.
Especially NPC warriors should be far and few: this isn't your typical fantasy hamlet where the average merc goes about with 50 lbs of forged metal on his back. 😉
Subtle is the word, and since people rarely bear arms anyway - guards do, citizens don't - you don't really need to bring that two handed heirloom of yours around, during your daily business. 😉
Also, keep in mind magic level is *low* and, in particular, low-key.
I know it is a bit boring, if you are accostumed to video-role-playing-games.
But this is a plot-driven, chat-rpg. 😀
So trying and get the hang of it, you might in for something different from your usual hack-fest.
You might even enjoy it. 🙂
