you were a ranger, your grandfather a legend that died fighting off foul creatures aiming to destroy the land. The demons were after an ancient artifact, if the artifact is destroyed a power of evil that is invincible would be unleashed upon the world, your dad died killing a warlock that wanted to destroy the artifact. yeras later the artifact was found by a peasent and served him as a tax to the king, the king found the artifact and let the priests find out the artifact's prophecy, though they mis-interpreted it, telling the king the destroyer of the artifact would become invincible in strength, and so the king wanted to destroy it, though it could only be destroyed in the middle of the elf forest, a place protected by a gigantic animal guardian. He heard of you, you had a knack for making animals trust you, and in fighting monsters too, he also knew about the mark, the ranger's mark. That sacred mark passed on generation to generation in your family gives its owner an enchatment making monsters and animals alike trust you and not attack you. And so he sent you on a quest to kill the guardian, in return he promised to give you the artifact which you knew the actual prophecy of, you killed the guardian and wanted to claim your price, but the king had evil in his heart, and so he set an assasin to kill you once you were in the castle and make it look like he was trying to get the artifact too, only he didn't succed, you understood your situation quick enough.. and so you grabed the artifact, charged out the castle and rode your steed to safety, there are still assasins on your tracks, you have to finally keep the artifact safe!
you are the wanderer
character list:
name: weapon: (something reasonable like a long sword or a bow or something) secondary wep.: (dagger, short bow, whatever...) steed: (make it not over-powered, you can be craetive like a large tiger or magic elf or whatever or just have a horse or whatever) items: rangers mark, some water, elvish bread
"allow me" he says chuckling, he pulls out some kind of staff, then he does a kind of hand movement and suddenly the horse stops galloping, the rider trys to get it to move but it stays in place, then Dyrall bring down his hand and the horse starts jumping in place and bringing down the ride, then the rider now angry slashes the horse with his sword killing it, then he pulls out two daggers and walks slowly toward you...
then the assasin throws the two daggers, you dodge one of them and one of them cuts Dyrall a bit, then he pulls out his longsword and charges at you guys...
name: Yoshi Jimika weapon: Greatsword secondary wep.: throwing daggers steed: A large Komodo Dragon Lizard(has claws so it can climb montains and can move fast) items: rangers mark, some water, elvish bread,artifact Money: 50 silver
wow I thought this thread would have 2 players forever, yes you can join, there is a town to the south east and the elf forest is a long way down south west where do you go?
Talow: the rider laughs then swing his ssword at you, you counter it, then Dyrall swings his staff knocking the rider down, then the rider kicks Dyrall and throws him to the ground too, he then grabs dyrall and a dagger "make a move and the guy's dead, this is simple, give me the artifact and I'll let go of your friend...."
Yoshi: you throw a knife at the guy and he falls down in pain, you get up and get ready to slash him, do you do something before or just kill him, or leave him alone to his pain...?
After reading the first page of the thread i feel compelled to join in
name:Simon weapon:Broadsword secondary:composite bow steed:A giant centipede omnivorous so i can easily dispense of foes but mildly slow items:rangers mark, some water, elvish bread
darn in the last 2 days 3 people joined the hunger games and 2 people joined wanderer I am happy
simon that steed is very creative but ummmm.... Its a bit over-sized, something like a relatively huge catterpillar would be a bit better, I find a whole living train as a steed a bit overpowered, you understand? other than that add "artifact to the items" oh and the plot was originally from a comix I drew last year and got tired off, then I re-wrote it as a short story and that bored me too, so I created this RPG and vwala! Im having fun! And I sure do hope the players do too...
when you fix your steed, look at the beginning I did for blake (aka ravaged soul) and tell me what you do.
anyway you head for the town, a guy traveling sees you "oh hello, ya' want ta'isit Pan? I have a spare map of the town if ya need it" the man says nicely.
name: Simon weapon: Broadsword secondary: composite bow steed: An aligater sized centipede items:rangers mark, some water, elvish bread, artifact
I ride my centipede up to the man and say "yes a map o' pan would do me some good," all the while my hand nerr the hilt of my sword incase he should be a highwayman
he gives you a map "oh by the way, I don't think this.... ummm... steed of yours could pass the city gates, you might need to leave it there when ya' go'n" he says with a nice accent, you reach the gates, and yes guards yell at you to leave the thing out of town...
name: Simon weapon: Broadsword secondary: composite bow steed: An aligater sized centipede items:rangers mark, some water, elvish bread, artifact
I tell the gaurds "dont bother it incase it decides to eat you" all the while giving them fearful looks, then I tell it to wait for me here and I enter the town gates in search of a butcher.
