Fantasy style RP based on a world that has been being built in the topic Original Concept RP
Looking for a few other players who want to help build an awesome world and characters.
(before I give the information shout out to WishfulThinking for creating the Original topic even though you havent been able to play lately, and to TheHero1208 and Virtu for their awesome world and charcter building that has made this adventure what is is gonna be!
Currently built is a world with two major Kingdoms Grandiel and Poko that are at war. It is a renesaince to preindustrial era world with little to know electric technology. However the world has a magic mineral known as Ether that is being mined and used for various gear throughout the world. Magic, combat, and a coming of age story are osme of the themes that have shown up so far in the world building.
From the Character end the story is set to begin in a small mining town and follow the lives of yteenagers and young adults setting out into this world from there.

Magic is very common. Magic-tech, grand floating islands, forests that sing, magical creatures may be an every-day occurrence.
Renaissance
More combat than not. The setting may be at war, and the characters will likely get involved whether or not they seek it out.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.
The first two other slots out of our 4-5 players are reserved for TheHero1208 and Virtu
Don't be afraid to contribute ideas and help us make this world even cooler!

Interested in this. What powers are allowed or power level?
Currently as far as power level the idea would be to start small and work your way forward ... kinda the anime/game progression of power through discovery and practice.
what type of abilities is up for discussion though so far have been on the smaller end.
What type of things did you have in mind?

I have a character in mind that needs development in her earlier years. A spirit that is trapped inside a spell book but can conjure a body made of magic. Her skills and powers increase by learning other people's spells since that is what a spell book is for, write in new spells. She has some spells already. I just need to dub it down from not going too powerful.
Hi there! If you're interested, my character might work for this setting.

hmm she is a cool character, though with the majority of characters that are established (at this point im not sure how things will change lol)being quite young, my question is, what type of role do you want her to play, i could see alot of cool angles so I'm interested in hearing your ideas!
Since she is already built, I'll be shifting her history around. Of course I am also limiting the information I am giving out. I could pm her information if you want.
There is another character who is human that is contracted with a spirit. Just made it earlier but he is still weak since there are requirements to getting power. More trust more power I think
Yeah, I read the age bit after I posted. Sorry! 
Well, since everyone is presumably in the same town, maybe Devi could come in as a bit of a merchant figure (like Moa, haha) and come to the town seeking mined resources. She could run into everyone then, getting involved in the plot when selling everyone wares.
Have you got any ideas? I'm a bit blank other than that at the moment.

I'd be interested in playing in this RP, sounds like a cool idea. I'm thinking of playing a young adult character who went to work in the mines etc.
Can I rp too? This rp sounds really interesting!
Update: heya everyone, I'm really excited to see all the interest in this topic, sorry things have been moving slow. They probably will continue to do so for the next couple days. Just started a new semester, so getting things situated, and also still giving a few more days to give a chance to the reserves that were set.
Thanks for your time and interest!
Thanks for your time and interest!
It's fine! I totally understand!
Hey guys! I'm one of the people that helped to form the world of this RP, and hopefully I can clarify a few things about what exactly we're looking for.
First of all, the cast of characters we currently have is as follows:
1. Bowie (Hero): The son of a miner, he spent his childhood in the ether mines and has grown quite tolerant to the mineral's fumes. His father died in a mining accident and his best friend the guardsman took Bowie in, and has given him martial training since. Bowie is an honorable boy with a code of conduct that keeps himself and his friends accountable.
2. Chester (My character): The son of a hunter, Chester knew the woods outside from a young age. His parents raised him like a wild animal, so he is much like one. Until he met Bowie, Chester did not restrain himself in the least, but their friendship has made a decent man out of him, so long as Bowie is around anyway. He has a history of thievery. "If they're rich enough to wear their purses on their belt, they can spare the change!"
3. Rayle (Rixcus): A frail young man born to the governor of our small keep. He was experimented on with Ether as a child, and has gained benefits and deficits from the event; a capability in natural magic and weakened constitution. His father is connected to a dark and secretive organization, of which Rayle has only guessed about. Fortunately, he has kept the magical effects of his experiment a secret simply out of spite. As a person, his facade is eloquent and his heart misanthropic.
Bowie and Chester are childhood friends, and only know of Rayle by reputation. We once had someone to connect them, a third childhood friend between Bowie and Chester, and the subject of a love triangle.
She was a brave young lass, the humble granddaughter of the city's herbalist. Her parents were separated from her when the Rift tore between the two civilizations, and they have only been able to communicate by monthly letters that are often lost in transit. At the start of the RP, her grandfather joins her grandmother in death, and there is therefore nothing more to keep her here in Puck. She is resolute to join her parents in Grandel. Of course, Bowie and Chester are loathe to let her go alone, and when they three apply to the adventurer's guild so that they can get a travel permit, Rayle catches wind of their ambition and joins their party for his own reasons.
So you see, it is particularly this character that we are looking to replace. The user has not contacted us for the past month, and we are in need of someone to take up the role in any way they see fit. The only requirements we can ask for is that they make a character that's the childhood friend of Bowie and Chester with a good reason to cross the Rift.
If you need more details on the characters or the world, check out the link to our interest in the first post! If you're still interested after hearing this, or inspired to make a character, I'd be very excited to hear about it!

Thanks so much for clarifying further!
If this is still going, and if my character's all right in this setting (I can make a new one if you wish), I'd be happy to participate.
