The North Lands( RP)
It started out as a map for the Saga, but I managed to get lost in my self absolutely and I ended up with a different world with it's own history, features and kindgoms and it makes a nice AD&D map.
Well to get to the point I decided to start (another ) role play based on this little world.
so i guess if anyone would be intersted just create a character, from practicly any race and we can get started...
If not I'll just delete this and throw it in the bin

okay the character races are as follow's:
elves - snow elves, high elves, wood elves and mountain elves, dark elves
dwarves - high dwarves and mountain dwarves
humans - any kind you wish
frostlings
goblins
orcs
undead
hobbits
choose from these, or create a race of any normal kind
Guidelines: well the world is a mix between AD&D, Homm3 and my own fantasy...realy there are no restrictions, but down't create a level 25 character just start out normal and create a history of some sort for him
Stick roughly to the AD&D rules if you need to... just create him, his hsitory, post him and we're off.
A q.: what's a GMed RP?

then in that case, well yes in a way, i won't interfere much since i have a character but yes there is a GM, sotr of...
High dwarf are more noble, more advanced and inteligent, a good priest or a spellcaster... like the high elves
and a mountain dwarf is your classical dwarf- miner, fighter and so on. they are stronger than the high dwarves but not so intelingent and wise

ok. i'll give this a try. here is my character.
name: Reb Forr
gender: male
race: mountain dwarf
Occupation:. wanderer, thief
bio: i was found in the forest by an elf, skilled in spellcasting. she lived in the mountains of the dwarven kingdom cut off from the world. she taught me her ways and developed my skills. she also taught me how to lurk in the shadows and steal what i may need. she also taught me that i may fall into close combat and so i learnt how to use daggers and short swords. she then passed after teaching me all she knew. her last words were for me to use what i know and to go and see the world and that how i ended up here(where ever here is).
if i left out something just tell me

Okay so here am I ...
Name: Annunhalion
Race: Half Elf
Occupation: Ranger with little mix of a paladin
Allignment: Chaotic Good
Bio: Annuhalion came from a split family. His father was a human, a paladin of the Knights of Othin, an order form the kingdom of Erethion. His mother was an elven druid apprentice, very fair and beautiful. His father left soon after their meeting and Annuhalion never met him.
He grew up in the city of Green Leaf(Mani-Anor) in the Province of the Green Forest in the kingdom of Mithenoberin. After graduating from the academy he joined the Forest Militia, in which he exceled during the war of one Summer against the kingdom of Isimaldon.
His success lead him to a promotion into the Golden Guard, the Guard of the Kingdom, the highest ranking organisation in the kingdom. Currently living in Green Leaf he aids the local forest in which he grew up...
About time we got this thing started. So for background on the land check the OOC thread. I'll keep updating the info abou the North Lands there...

Okay I'm going to start the story with just a small sketch, but join along, we're starting...finaly
The day in Mani-Anor started off as a busy one. Merchants stands were allready filled with goods and ques were forming. Town criers were yelling out the top stories and newsparepers weer being sold. After all it was the seventh day of the week and everyone was as usual busy. The elven town in the South, the capitol of the province of Green Forest was always a trading point and a place of exchanging news from the south and the east. Taverns were always full of merchants, travelers and adventurers. News were coming from the Unitement of Eleven about their rebelion against the Drows. Stories of ongiong battles and conflicts were filling the ears of the the tavern guests.
The castle court was as alomst every day dealing with this topic. The rebelion of the eleven dark elven city states against the spider worshiping cult and the queen. The generals and the govenor were waiting for instructions and a promise of divisions to aid the Unitement battle. Today the daily breifing just began.
The young elven luitenant, the leader of the Green squad of Rangers was heading to the briefing. Running throught the corridor he knew he was late. His footsteps were echoing in the halls.
As he opened the door he tried to sneak in into the meeting that was allready in progress. But his arival didn't come unnoticed. First it was his friend Méni, the leader of the Horse archers greeted him. But then imediately it was the general Lýneil who spoke his name.
" Annuhalion!" he exclaimed " Finnaly, we have been waiting for you. I have a task for you especialy. Two Narithian soldiers of higer ranking have been caught crossing the river. They are in Toran and are wanting to speak especialy for you. You are to head to Toran after this meeting imediately and see to them."
Annunhalion noticed that all eyes were looking at him, the Govenor, the General, and all other importat people of the Green Forest were eying him. This must be of some importance. And so the stranger day started...

after his only real parent had died, Reb Forr decided to leave the only place he knew as home. he buried his guardian and took his precious foulfang sword. packing a few provisions and a bow he made his way to the nearest dirt road. he walked down the road for a bit, still silently sobbing over the loss of his guardian. he felt a little better after hearing new born birds crying for food in a tree.
Forr start to stop thinking about his loss and start trying to find a place to stop, preferably near water. soon after he heard a running river. Forr push aside shrubs and branches and found a river lying near a set of cliffs. he bent down to drink, feeling refreshed after the brief downing of water. while he filled up his bottles he heard a sound, the sound of ppl.
he slowly made his way downstream towards the voices, creeping silently the way his guardian had taught him. eventually he saw where the voices where coming from, he peered over a shrub to see 2 men drinking from the river. they were all armed. he watched as they talked but still Forr was too far away to make out anything clearly. Forr went back to the dirt road thinking it would be better to avoid confronting the strangers and found 2 wagons. he crept around and saw another man on one of the wagons.
Forr silently crept onto the nearest wagon and peeked inside behind the cloth sheet. the wagon was full of vegetables, it became clear now that they were traders. he but the sheet back and stayed in the wagon. after several minutes the men came back, both of the men sitting on the same wagon Reb occupied. soon he was off. now much closer he heard their converations.
after much talk he learned thier destination. Toran

Exiting the hall Méni rushed to him.
"So you have been awarded this difficult misson, eh leutenant?" He said with a smirk
"Well, atleast other people trust me enought to assign me missons" Annuhalion replied laughing
"Okay okay, whatever." ,Méni said, "When are you going?"
"Like always you don't listen. I'm going ,well, right now. I'll just take some things and I'm going. Oh by the way don't you want to come?"
"Ummm...Don't know. Why should I come?"
"I don't feel like spending the day journey alone and we could go to one of the taverns afterwrds..." Annunhalion said this knowing that Méni would agree afterall.
"Well I don't have anything to do...and heck I'm an officer...to the tavern you say? Okay I'll just go take my leave, get some stuff and I'll meet you in half an hour on the Forest Square...'k?"
"Allright, just hurry. .See You in a while." Annunhalion smiled and left the building.
He headed back home to which was on the other side of town.
Rushing he didn't have the time to enjoy the scenes of everyday life that he liked so much about this busy city.
His home was a simple house on one of the cascades. He Didn't use this one that much. He usualy slept in his cottage in the forest, but when he was here he used it.
The house was empty, meening that the wolf didn't follow him home as usualy and decided to stay in the forest.
'He wouldn't want to come anyways.' He thought.
He Grabed hi back pack and inside he threw a water flask, some food, arrows and his journal.
Downstairs he grabed his cloak and bow, his sword being always at his side.
Outside on the communal square were the stables for that casscade. He soon found his horse.
A red brownish filly, young but strong. He quickly mounted her and headed west through the city.
The forest square was the name of the westernmost square in the city, right by the Western Gate.
From a disstance he saw Méni. He was on his white colt and the fact that he was a cavalaryman could be told easily from a distance. His posture and the way he set up his body was different.
They greeted each other and chating they left the city.
In a pair the way passed quicker they, raced each other or just galloped through the land, not carring about roads just taking their own paths.
It was about four in the afternoon when they reached the city.
Toran was smaller and les busier than Mani-Anor, but it's position made it a great trading city and merchants from the west mostly used it. Especialy citizens of Narth, for it was close to the borders.
Many humans but it was not normal to see dwarves in this city. There were a few but not huge community. \
That was not the only reason why the dwarf caught. Annunhalions eye. As they made their way through the marketsquare he saw him. His movement and posutre was completely different from other dwaves. It was almost elf like. His height was, different. He was higher than many dwarves. He easily snaked through the crowd and became lost even to the eyes of the ranger.
"Did you see him?" Asked Annunhalion, turning to Méni.
"Who?"
"That dwarf."
"Why the hell should I look and dwarves?"
"Arg...this one was different."
"How so?" It was visible that Méni wasn't cathcing on.
"He was taller, and his movement, alomst like an elf...interesting."
"Forget about him, let's hurry, I want to have this over with."
Annunhalion took one last look into the crowd and they left.
They soon reached the Forest Guard HQ for the city. They dissmounted and entered the building.
Annunhalion turned to the first Guard in the building standng next to the Sign 'Information'
"I am Annunhalion, of Mani Anor, the Ranger Leutenant." He practicaly introduced him self.
"Who is he?" the guard asked looking at Méni.
"Méni Stretovius, Captain of the Dragons, Second Mounted division of the Green Forest." Méni only used his last name when he wanted to immpres. And the effected worked. The guard stumbled and saluted.
"Follow me, sires. I didn't know that such an important guest shall arive."
He led them upstairs. To one of the cells. It wasn't a regular cell. Only a detention one. Quite well equiped. Inside were two men.
After opening the door Annunhalion immeditaly knew who they were and why they wanted to see him.
"Markus!! Enders!!!" They greeted each other very warmly. Méni didn't understand but joined in and introduced himself.
"What are you guys doing here?" Annunhalion asked.
"Ahh...we'll explain, but not now. Can we go to a tavern. I'm dying for an ale." Markus said.
Annunhalion turned to the guard.
"Take them." The guard said."They are of no use, to us. They won't talk to anyone else then you."
So the four left the HQ and headed to a tavern. Soon they found one with a stable and placed their horses there as they were nearing entrance Annunhalion exclaimed something.
"That's him. That's the dwarf I saw." The dwarf entered the very same tavern and Annunhalion ran inside after him.
The rest being a bit bamboolzeld at first by it but hurried in after him.

OOC: Remember i stated in my char bio, I am a hermit, so that doesnt leave much room for self-RPing...So i'll need someone to interact with my character...read the OOC thread for more detail.
IC:
Leon Noel, the high elf was stranded on the battlefield. Surrounding him were dead bodies of all races; dwarf, elf, human, orc, and he even spotted dragons. A great battle had happened here, and he invoked an ancient power which should not have been awakened. Then he heard a loud screeching sound. He turned around slowly, and found himself face to face with a full grown dragon. The dragon opened its mouth wide, and took a deep breath.
GASP
Leon bolted upright in his sleep, looking around frantically. It was only a dream..only a dream. The only sounds he heard were the waves hitting the shore gently. He got up, and looked around. He would have to travel to Mithenoberin today, as his assistance was requested by an unknown contact.
The he heard the crash. His back door was slammed open, and he heard footsteps rushing in. Several heavy footsteps - Men. Regardless of who they were, no one barged into his house uninvited. He dashed for his bow and arrows. He then heard the voices
Find the elf, you may hurt him, but the king wants him alive. Then we can plunder this place
Cap'n, why would the king want a filthy elf alive?
I dont know Hargon, I just do what I'm told, and get paid after
So, a human king wanted him.He would not be taken without a fight. Creeping against the wall, he loaded his bow quietly, and snuck around the corner. He launched the arrow, and hit one of the humans in the head. He didn't get a clear glimpse of how many there were, but he estimated 6 or 7.
HE'S HERE! FIND HIM!
He took two arrows, and loaded them at the same time. He jumped out from behind the corner, and released the arrows. Two more casulties. He dived behind his table, and again reloaded his arrow. Sneaking under the table, he shot an arrow at one of the men's foot. He wouldn't be going nowhere for a while. He cast aside his bow and pulled out his sword, Erténíl. He leapt apon the table and slew one of the humans. His age did not show in battle, he was still as able a warrior as he was five hundred years ago. Three humans remained. He dived at one of them, arms outstretched. One found himself missing a head, while the other one was rendered unconscious. As he prepare to get up, a hard boot kicked him in his ribs. He fell to the ground, gapsing for air when he looked above him. He saw a sinister looking man standing over him with a dagger.
This will hurt a bit
Then he blacked out

Reb listened to the conversation of the two near him. after much talk he realized that they were both humans, they didnt like thier jobs and that they were stopping just outside of Toran very soon.
Reb heard the horses come to a stop. after a few minutes the three men went into the forest and were out of sight. Forr quickly got out and took the horse on the front wagon. he then picked up the pace of the horse from a trot, to a canter then to a gallop. he galloped until the city of Toran was in sight. from then he slowed the horse back to a trot.
when Reb entered the city he noticed that the city was absent of dwarves which wouldnt be too good in his case. he saw a tavern. he put his horse in the stables and entered. taking a seat next to the fire he ordered a good ale and waited for the place to quiet down so he could get the barkeep to answer a few questions

Annuhlaion entered the tavern and looked around. Nothing very special about it. The floor and seeling were wooden, the walls made of solid stone. The furnishings were wooden also and on the far wall sat a rather large fireplace. The wooden bar was on the right-side wall just near the stairs, probably to te sleeping quaters.
The only thing probably a bit unusual was a higher number of hobbit and dwarf patrons. But that didn't seem to matter.
Looking around Annuhalion saw the dwarf sitting at the bar and talking with the barkeep.
Slowly he moved towards it.
'Is it just my immagination, or are they all looking at me?' Ran through his thoughts, but he didn't look around.
As he was nearing the bar, the rest of his group neared entered the tavern doors. After a quick look around, thezy noticed Annunhalion walking towards the bar. And just as Markus was about to lurge after him, Méni held him back.
"He has seemed very interested by this dwarf. Let's not ruin it for him." he said grinning. And so they remained standign, a bit foolish looking in the back, while Annunhalion reached the bar.
The dwarf was indulged in coversation with the barkeep, and was questioning him rapidly. After the barkeep left to attend to the other guest, Annunhalion took his seet next to the dwarf.
Looking at him, he saw something different, if not unusual in his face but couldn't make it out so quickly.
He saw the dwarf notice him and so said.
"May, I buy you a drink, friend?"

Info
After careful consiredation I am planning to make the North Lands a stand-alon thread.
Firstly because of inactivity, somewhat caused by myself, and because I enjoy writting the story.
If something exciting doesnt happen soon I shall turn the OCC into a History thread and continue the story on my own.
If there is any will to keep it living, please post soon.
Thanks
