Forums » RP Discussion » Kingdom of Ash ooc discussion

I'd imagine you'd see all the classic monsters and traditional fantasy animals. We don't really need a doc for that right? Unless you would like to add common rats and squirrels, talking horses, dragons, unicorns and humans to the list lol

The doc were more meant for the "unusual" Beasts, like the living water, humanoid snapping turtle, and the bear with the face of a woman. Normal everyday animals doesn't belong there. The talking horses, dragons and unicorns are something that we can discuss on whether or not the have a place in the kingdom.

I really hope it weren't all jibberish I just spewed out.

No, everything you said makes sense. I'm not exactly sure if the RPRepository has its own RP lore or not, so I'm not sure what the genre of Fantasy includes on this site. I know the Kingdom of Ash is considered a Fantasy RP, and Ashendale's lore already involves humans, dwarves, elves, lycans, giant ravens and wizards, plus (thanks to your help ) we now have a whole Book of Beasts doc! and like you said, it only handles the more rare types. So I'd automatically just assume that Ashendale has all the classic monsters, dragons, unicorns, griffins, etc. or did have them at one time, at the very least.

for the most part monsters are from the ground up beyond that of traditional ones, these ones seem fine to me to add in

If they are approved, then I'll get to filling character lists with basic information. Once it's done, I will present them for evaluation, and then I will start asking questions on how to properly introduce my character into the game. If they won't work out, I'll think of something else.
The human race, btw - wgat ethnicities are there?

WE got the Pruvians to the north, and they are the other ethnicity other than the Ashdalians. Pruvians have a culture similar to that of Russia, with their language being Russian written in normal letters. They can have abilities like a powerful liver since their national drink is 90 percent pure alcohol, resistance to cold and enhanced strength when drunk.

Ashdalians i would figure are along the lines of Irish or Scottish culture very religious, particular about having strong build sons. They are more t the south a warmer climate then Pruvia.

We have not actually discussed every bitter detail of this storylore. We've just been making it up as we go along. As of right now the human races are just like us. You have negroids and caucazoids already in-game. I imagine there could be mongoloids in there too somewhere, but nobody made one yet. Right now it's all European-like races for the most part. Humans fall under two major kingdoms. Ashendale to the west and Kulrydale to the east (we never actually determined if the Pruvian Kingdom in the north was ruled by humans or not, but Russian-like humans do live there). But in-game King Estvikt of Kulrydale is already dead and has no heirs, so Kulrydale is currently in chaos - it has no king - though Vygoren Calygarn is the appointed Duke of Estvikt right now under the authority of Prince Relbregh Ashdown - so technically Kulrydale is now just another term for the Eastern Kingdom of Ash.

You're practically teasing me into creating Pruvian character, Skipbab)))

It's epic and high fantasy setting, but I still need to ask, very bluntly, for that I apologize - what kind of powers should be available tp a character? What are the lines there? Should I aim for something more mundane? How widespread magic abilities are? Should I rely on some kind of character classes?

Sorry if I am asking too many questions))

Magic is more common in non-human kingdoms like Quadoria and Varadycia... in-game ATM there are no humans capable of doing magic. I don't think. Faize is a mage, but not sure if he's human or not. Seems more like a warlock than a human. Faedkyn is a drow. Avery is human but she uses science rather than magic. Grevious is a lycan. Baltimore is a dwarf. I'd say magic is very rare in Ashendale and Kulrydale. It becomes a little more common in Pruvia.

Quadoria and Varadycia are centres for magic. Quadoria is the dwarvish kingdom. Varadycia is the elvish kingdom. The dark elves in Estvikt Swamp are also known to use magic. Pruvian mages practice a kind of magic. But that's it so far.

Kind of an obvious question, but... Pruvian names should be like Slavic ones, right?

yes correct

The very basic info is there, I will upload the avatar when I get home. We will need to discuss his details and potential role, I'd guess?

Vladmir?

Vladimir, yes. I'll add some more details once I get home.

Black hair and silver eyes. I like it. Faedkyn has black hair and golden eyes. Look forward to hearing more about the Aasimar. Everyone may post when ready.

It also just occurred to me that some in-game players are confused about the ultimate alliances or teams in the RP right now due to the IC drama lol. Don't worry, I'm going to tell you right now.



Ultimately the heroes:
- Carmen Ashdown
- Thraen Valour
- Faize the War Mage
- Grevious

Ultimately the villains:
- Faedkyn Hylorra
- Vygoren Calygarn
- Caspar
- Avery

Undetermined:
- Magnus Ashdown
- Lucifer
- Baltimore

If I add a Goddess of Fertility to the pantheon, will it be ok?

God, why do I never pay attention to the discussion? Ah well, someday.

I'll just set on the fact that I've been, like, extremely busy now, so responses will still be sporadic. I have a test first thing when coming back for classes and such, and despite my efforts, I'm still having difficulty memorizing things and what not. I also need to edit the project that my friends demanded me to be the editor for, which I haven't touched for I wanted to relax and calm myself for a bit. And, some projects, too. I feel like too much is on my back.

Though, I, myself, am feeling rather tired, stressed, not relaxed, etc. and wanting to be a couch potato, I'm going to attempt to actually do an action that relax smell, by doing some things that let me enjoy myself: like roleplaying.

By tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, I should be able to send a response through my pile of things I need to do. Though, seeing as though I haven't touched in on my roleplays for a bit, my response may not be so long like the last replies that have been a bit lengthy. I'm just not in the most correct mood to be able to send my usual length.

Anyway, that's all that I felt like I needed to type off. Hopefully what I can think up in my dead brain will let me feel more revived in myself.

That's okay. I'm sure we can work without Johanna Meiadov and Prince Calvin Kridei Ashdown until you get back. This RP plays out like a story with chapters. You could always end at a stopping point, and then pick up where you left off when you return. Of course, you'll have some catching up to do. But that's what this thread is for, to provide a summary and give you simple updates so you don't have to read the whole story.
