Aurangh's Dragonslayers OoC
heme: Very Classic (Oldie) High Fantasy Dungeonslayer stuff with Norse and Celtic themes.
300 years ago, the heroes Wiglaf and Beowulf defeated the Great Dragon Ashardalon who had killed many in retaliation for the theft of a single golden cup from his hoard. The dragon's body was never found after it plummeted into a wild gorge. Beowulf died in combat and no magic could bring him back. With the richness of the dragon's hoard, your ancestors became powerful Thanes, ruling over thousand of men and pushing the boundaries of their kingdom into the forests before untouched. Their greed created hatred and resentment from fae and men alike and war ensued.
The fae opened the doors to savage creatures to wage war against men, but they couldn't control them all. A period of darkness ensued, with Castles and Monasteries drawing the scattered humans to their walls, fleeing the beasts released by the fae. Dislodged, the human kingdom divided in four duchies, one of which soon was obliterated by the wildest of the dark beasts released by the fae. The fae had managed to push back men, but their losses were great and tragic.
For 100 years, there has been a relative peace as both fae and men cleaned the dark beasts that remained. But humans are once again growing in numbers and in their short lived memories there's no place for memories of the war, they start to push beyond where they should go. However, a few years ago, something strange started to happen, slow and steadily, newborns began to show a lack of spirit, as if their childhood had been stolen. It took some time before it became apparent that this was general and that it was not exclusively a human issue.
Who are you?
You are either The thane of one of the three human kingdoms or a hero of the fae (I won't take more than one Fae hero though). And you are about to venture into the barren lands that once were the fourth human kingdom in search of clues about the illness that plagues newborns.
[SPOILER=IF Bel likes the pitch]Recruitment: Three characters. Each will have a cohort (lover, squire, etc) UNLESS you have an animal companion or familiar.
I want concepts first, you can start rolling and doing crunch, but I really won't review sheets right now.
Deadline: Concepts accepted until Saturday 13th. Then I'll be traveling from the 15 to the 25th. But we will discuss with the shortlisted players on final character submission.

Re: Aurangh's Dragonslayers OoC
Infernally clay seems to have disappear. So we'll run the game with you two, your cohorts and an NPC champion of the Fae run by me. If you don't mind. I'll set up things tonight.

The dog yelps.

Norebo is a Domovoi Druid, so old that he barely can walkd by himself, so he spends the day in wild shape.
Brana is ahalf-fey halflingundecided archer and trickster.

Re: Aurangh's Dragonslayers OoC
Sorry, we got a big deadline on Sunday and we were expecting an extension which we didn't get. So I'll try to start this Monday the earliest.

Re: Aurangh's Dragonslayers OoC
As a headsup: my state is suffering from a torrential ammount of rain and I might be powerless sometime in the next days: the rain is supposed to keep pouring down until sunday or so and so far we got a few cities completely isolated due the flood, some bridges (and a dam) collapsed.
Flying yesterday back here was nightmarish.Ruven Feathers, tengu opportunist with a keen eye for gold and an accute scent for death.

Re: Aurangh's Dragonslayers OoC
Well, thinking about moving the OoC to a Discord. Working on the opening post for the IC right now. My NPC may join later. or may not join. So you are two champions and the cohorts. Only change is you have full use of the cohorts, so its a party of 4. Maybe lacking some healing. but well.
