(rp) War Of Wynn (rp) (11/11)

Hi guys, Mantis here making my first RP. This one will have similar storyline and mechanics to @Heavy 's awesome RP, War of the Provinces, which unfortunately died. Not failing to recognise the potential Heavy's RP had, I couldn't resist making an rp similar to his.

Storyline Lore:


It was a time of peace in the provinces. Trade flourished, the corruption was stopped, Mistress Qira was beat in her own hive and relations between the Humans and Villagers were better than ever. However, as in all stories, peace does not last.

Twenty one years after the fantastically powerful being who slew the corruptor, destroyed Amadel, gained Bob's seal of approval and banished the Mistress of the Hive disappeared, tensions have risen between villagers and humans. The Grand Alliance had depended on a common foe: the corruption, and once it had been taken away, the villagers and humans had nothing to fight, (other than each other of course), no common ground to stand on, and no reason to be allies at all. The greedy villagers wanted more emerald from the wynncraftian humans, so much so that a rogue band of big noses stole into the village of Maltic, abducted a family of 6 humans and sent them to work in the mines.


Eventually, word got out that the villagers had kidnapped some humans, and in doing so, had broken a fragile peace. The Human King had always secretly mistrusted the villagers, as he had heard the tales of General Skien's insanity, and so he declared war.

Plans were made, armies were assembled, and the humans are poised to defend their motherland, while the villagers stand by, unnervingly passive, secretly gathering their allies. What will you do, Player? Will you stand by the Humans in their cause or help the villagers in their quest against the Humans? Apply below to find out.

If you didnt read it, here's the summary: The villagers did stuff, the humans are angry, its gavel vs wynn in this epic war to end all wars.

I HIGHLY recommend you to read all this if you wish to apply

Spoiler: Armor

Armor provides Damage Resistance(DR) and Magic Resistance(MR) to the wearer. DR and MR are calculated like this:

Dam-DR/MR=Damage Taken

For example, if an elite assassin with DR: 10 MR: 5 from Gavel is hunting down a certain bank robbing elf, and the assassin were hit with a 19 damage attack with a sword by the elf, they would take 9 damage. I decide what's classified as a magic attack or regular attack unless you specify otherwise. Try to make your DR and MR lore friendly please. There is also -DR/MR, which is the base damage dealt plus the positive DR/MR.

You can have 4 pieces of armor equipped. Your head, face, body, and feet slots. Your face slot is where items that would go on your face go, such as a mask or glasses. Your head slot is where hats or helmets go. Your body slot is for your main body armor, such as chainmail armor or a formal suit. Finally, the feet slot is where you'd put footwear, such as boots or shoes. Again, please be lore friendly.

While buying from shopkeepers or looting off corpses, some armors will have special bonuses. For example, glasses will have the wearer more perceptive, making them sense danger better. You might also find legendary or rare pieces of armor on your travels.

If unspecified, your DR and MR remain at 0. Tell me in detail about your armor.

Spoiler: Weapons

Weapons are extremely important (obviously) and they determine the amount of damage you deal.

In your application, specify your weapon, please, make it lore friendly. I dont want any JOHN CENAS HAMMER OF POOP BS, be sensible. I will decide how much damage your weapon does unless otherwise specified.

Spoiler: Spells

Your character can have up to 4 spells (5 if you are a magician/mage. Specify in your application format what spells you have already learnt. There will be opportunities to acquire spells along the game. I decide how much damage your spells do, so don't specify.

Spoiler

As you travel, you might encounter some less than friendly mobs. When attacked, you might be inflicted by a horrible debuff, or if healed by an ally, you might receive some awesome powers. Furthermore, your characters might have spells that buff them. Describe the buffs in your application, so I know what's going on. Here are some buffs and debuffs.

Spoiler: FAQ

Q: How do I get around?
A: There are various ways to get around. The simplest is walking. It's free and environmentally friendly, but also fairly slow. You can ride on a horse, if you buy(or steal) one. You can pay a driver to drive you on horse cart to a specified city by land. If you're needing to get to an island or between Wynn or Gavel, you can always pay to ride on a boat(or steal one). Detlas and Cinfras have airship ports, but you can only travel to and from those cities. In sure a deal could be arranged with a smaller airship captain to take you to any city. Or, if someone happened to have a high reputation with Fruma, I'm sure they could have an airship pick them up anywhere and drop them off anywhere.

Q: What if I am defeated in combat?
A: You'll probably die. Depends on the enemy, they could just let you go. Bandits will almost always try and hold you for ransom before killing you. If soldiers capture you, they will most likely take you to be tried and executed or imprisoned.

Q: Then what happens if I die?
A: You're out of the RP. Sorry.

Q: So how many characters can we have?
A: One.

Q: Can I be evil?
A: Yes, by all means! This is your adventure, play it out how you want. Although, if you side with an evil faction, good factions won't be very pleased with you.

Q: Can I have my own Army?
A: Yes. mercenaries can be found all over the world, and most are capable fighters. Their prices may vary, and certain ones have different traits and skills. You can also get soldiers to fight with you if you have high enough reputation with a certain faction.

Q: You gave me "Free Choice" as a response. What does it mean?
A: It means you can do whatever you want, as long as it makes sense and follows all the rules.

Q: How do I get better weapons?
A: You can upgrade one of yours at the blacksmith, or buy a new one from a merchant or blacksmith. Some enemies also drop powerful weapons

Spoiler: Reputation

The RP(Reputation Points) system is your current standing with a faction. If you sneak onto a ship owned by United Wynn in Nemract, for example, and set it on fire, you will lose RP for United Wynn and their allies, but gain some for any factions against them. The RP system goes from -1000 to +1000

Spoiler: Rules

1: No metagaming. For example, if someone in the RP is weakened when they come in contact with water, and your character has no way of knowing, you cannot say “I splash them with water.”

2. Be serious. Example: If a merchant asks you “So, what'll it be for you? The sword is only two Liquid Emeralds.” you can't throw a bowl of noodles at him and eat his face off.

3. Be realistic. Example: If your character is human, you can't say “I fly from Detlas to Olux”

4. Say Potato in your app to prove you read the rules.

5. You determine the action, but I determine the results. This means you can't code what's going to happen. For example, if you say “I ask him what his name is.” You cannot decide the name.

6. Please make characters lore friendly. Don't do this:

He picked it up and then threw it at the troll. It hit the troll square in the head! But how did he aim it right? He had usually had rubbish aim.

I was kinda going for a reference to the abysso galoshes...

 

Yeah, I know, though the galoshes would be a little op for starting XD

 

I kinda designed my character as what I thought a general of troms trained by the legendary hero would be like

 

Alright, you're ready.


You walk around the walls of Troms, your home city. A couple of archers walk past you, and salute respectfully.
What do you do?
A. Salute back
B. Nod respectfully
C. Ignore
D. Free choice

 

I choose A

 

You salute back at the archers, and keep on walking. You walk down a winding staircase, finally reaching the ground floor. You notice there seems to be a small argument in the market place.

A: Check it out
B: Ignore it
C: Free choice

 

C: I go to check it out but I ask one of the archers to come with me
(I wanted to add that detail)

 

Name: ??? (Unknown)
Age: 15 almost 16
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Backstory: Dropped off in the Olux swamps after parents were chased and afterwards killed by unknown villager raced bandits soon after sighting the building of the quartztron
??? Was later raised and trained for battle by swamp Nagas that had taken ??? in after seeing swamp ogres trying to kill and eat ??? as an infant. 14 years later when quartztron was destroyed
???'s Naga family was attacked by humans looking for a witch that had a outlawed flower. ??? Declared war upon humans and traveled to, and trained in Llevigar for months to soon meet the day where he went at war.

Primary weapon: Naga dagger, damage: 70
Secondary weapon: Black Leaf Bow, damage: Water damage: 20 Earth damage: 30

Spells; Camouflage: Tune in to your surroundings and almost immediately paint yourself in the structures around you; Knert's applied skin makes this possible.

Armour: Llevigar swamp camouflage tunic Dr 6 Mr 6
Llevigar swamp camouflage leggings Dr 5 Mr 5
Naga tiara Dr 0 Mr 8

Starting Place: Llevigar

Side: Villagers

Other: The Nagas had dyed ???'s skin teal for camouflage giving extra tactics for battle. This made Knert a very viable resource for the assassinations squadron.

At Knert's young age, his Naga parents enrolled him in a tutoring school, run by a witch in a cave. This taught Knert the basics of English and a little more requirements to be matured
Edit: I have just thought about how having no name will affect rp so for rp sakes: Llevigar decided to title this young hero: Knert

 

You command the archer to accompany you, and he nods. You walk towards the scuffle, and see that it is a gang of snatchers forcing a young man to 'pay his debts.' You sigh. In the coming war with gavel, bands of these thieves and braggarts have sprung up across wynn, advertising 'war insurance.'

A: Tell the snatchers to back off
B: Defend the man
C: Ignore

________________________________

Accepted! Although your weapons are a tad powerful.
Here's the edited versions:

Naga Dagger
Unique Item
5 - 15 damage
15% chance to poison on hit

Black Leaf Bow
Set Item
10 - 20 Earth damage
10 - 25 Water damage
Very Slow Attack Speed (gives your enemies a chance to counter before you attack)

Set bonus:
+10% water damage
+10% earth damage

 

B: I defend the young man (I kinda expected this to be a villager vs human dispute)

 

(Almost all villagers who were previously in Wynn have been kicked out)
B: You walk over to the snatchers and glare at them. They look at you as if they might fight, then see your general's badges and longsword at your side.
Two of them run off, but their leader stays. He glares at you.

"This aint none of your business, mr general," he says

A: Say that it is your business, since the King of Troms has put a law banning all illegal trades.
B: Walk away
C: Threaten him.
D: Arrest him.

 

A: my duty is to the king

 

You stare at the thief and say,
"But it is my business, for my duty is to the King and what you're doing may or may not be illegal."
The thief spits at you're feet and rushes at you with a dagger, slicing at your chest. Your armour takes the brunt of the impact.

Thief 80/80 HP

Aragurn: 95/100 HP
Archer 50/50 HP

The archer accompanying you shoots a well aimed arrow at the thief's arm, it hits its mark.

Thief 65/80 HP [DISARMED] (He dropped his dagger because the archer shot his hand.)

 

This seems cool. If i have time I have time and creativity to create a character i will join.

 

and my options from here are? or is it free choice?
