Forums / Roleplaying / Roleplay Re-form

ok, I dont know about other people on here, but I would like to see these forums start producing quality roleplays again.

so here is a roleplay I set up on a proper roleplaying forum. I want to have a go at doing this on this website also, so people start roleplaying properly again, rather than just creating topics every coupoe of days, rather than making a good one every month or so, and seeing it through.

REBELLION

PROLOGUE:

Efresil looked around, jumping at the slightest sound. He ran his hand through his dark brown hair, sweeping aside the strands that fell in front of his dark green eyes. Footsteps nearby startled him, and he ducked down, concealing his presence behind the wall of a house that had fallen down, only two walls remaining upright. He heard low voices talking, and he strained to hear, but he could decipher nothing.

Once the voices moved on, Efresil made his move. With inhuman speed, he quickly sped down the street of the city, making his way to the exit of that accursed place. With a yelp he jumped back, a soldier had appeared in front of him. He drew his twin elven swords from either side of him, and attacked.

The soldier was well trained, and fought well, parrying Efresils attacks, and attacking himself with controlled fury when he got the chance. Then he made his mistake. He lifted his sword, intending to chop it down towards Armanasks neck. But in doing so, he left his stomach and torso unguarded. Armanask took the opportunity, and the next thing he knew the soldier was lying dead at his feet, a hole through his stomach.

Efresil received no more trouble during his escape. He ran out of the gates of the city. Freedom beckoned. He drew back his hood, revealing pointed ears. He stood and waited, for there were others that had attempted to escape with him. He had gone first, then at five minute intervals so did the others, all taking a different route. Altogether fifty of them were attempting to escape. He hid himself behind a spur of rocks, and wrapped his cloak more tightly around him, pulling the hood back up. Now the wait began.

PLOT:

The lands of Brazeckrel once thrived. The people were happy, and prospered. But this did not last.

Now Brazeckrel has fallen into chaos. Soldiers patrol the streets of every town, city, every single small village that exists. They take what they want, and kill all who attempt to escape. Or at least they try to kill them all. It is said that the one who leads them lives in Armanask, the capital of the human race.

Now a group of five people have decided that enough is enough. They are tired of this, and have passed round the message throughout Brazeckrel that escape has been planned. They are to meet at Racras rocks, deep in the heart of the Mardefrin Mountains. At least ten thousand will attempt to escape, but that is no indication of how many will arrive. Once there they will plan, they will organise themselves. They will plot revenge, and they will teach all to fight. They will start a rebellion.

RULES

1- NO godmodding.
2- Keep swearing to a minimum, none preferably
3- Dont avoid your characters death, if they die then you can come back as another person.
4- Your posts must be two paragraphs of five sentences long each minimum, more expected in most posts. make sure what you post contributes to what is going on, and keeps the roleplay flowing.
5- Check your spelling- write out your reply in Microsoft word, or some other program that has spell check. Also read over what you have written before posting it, to make sure it makes sense.
6- When you post try to think about these things- How your character is feeling, what the surroundings are like, different observations your character may have, things like that. Try to build up your character as we go, so do a brief history, and let it grow throughout the story.
7- Do NOT under any circumstances not read previous posts, you must not skim read them, make sure you have read them carefully and know exactly what is going on.
8- No OCC in the IC thread.
9- If you are going to stop playing this, tell me, and write a post saying how you die, or leave the cause, as I dont want the roleplay disrupted by someone just not posting without telling me.

CHARACTER SHEET

Name
Age
Gender
Race
Race description (if another has already used the race you want to use, then use their description, is you are unhappy with their description, either make your character a variation of that race or take it up with the person who wrote the race description. Remember, you can make up a completely new race if you so wish, but make sure the description is very thorough if you do,)
Weapons (only medieval style, no guns)
Any particular skills
Brief history


My character sheet:

Name: Efresil
Age: 143
Gender: Male
Race: wood elf
Race description: The wood elves are much like the normal elf, but are different is some small ways. They love to spend time outdoors, and will often sit in the same place for hours, in a forest, or grassland, anywhere were animal life thrives, and listen to the sounds around them. They are quicker stronger than humans, although not much stronger, a weak wood elf is the same strength as a strong human. They all carry a bow, as it is custom to give a bow to a wood elf when they come of age, at 34. They are long lived, some say immortal.
Weapons: Two thin bladed elven swords, and a bow
Any particular skills: Is proficient at healing, although he has not had these skills put to the test often enough for him to be considered highly skilled.
Brief history: Efresil and his parents lived in peace in a small town of wood folk. It was in the middle of a forest, and few knew of its location. But the soldiers found it, and forced the people there to go and live in Armanask. The forest was in the Madefrin Mountains, and he had suggested the place as the refuge for the people who would escape. His parents are now dead, and h picked a part of the mountains that are a long way from where he had lived.



post your chracter sheet here.

Good idea. I won't join because I'm busy but I have a question or 2...

He lifted his sword, intending to chop it down towards Armanasks neck.
Who is Armanask?

What does IC mean?

Why don't you do a minimum of 200 words or something instead of 10 sentences? I can wite 5 sentence easily....
"The wall is big. It is high. I don't like the wall. It is made of bricks." (Just an example...)

http://visual-utopia.com/forum.asp?forum=9&topicID=56607&replyes=0

accepted!

please start posting ASAP!

might, you better not sp@m......

Master of manipulation and getting people to do what he wants.

They are the same!  xD

we meet up. and you can find things on a soldiers body, but nothing too lavish, the soldiers are not wealthy men

Hmm... I keep saying Erunion instead of Eriaeus... Also, Revenge, Eriaeus isn't a young man, nor would he choke on rum...

Yeah... The whole young man thing is kind of insulting to an elf who is considerably older than you, but I put it down to the abnormal rum. Which I just disposed of...

lolz.

please dont force actions on other players, that comes under godmodding

it has gone crappy.

I quote from my plot:

Now Brazeckrel has fallen into chaos. Soldiers patrol the streets of every town, city, every single small village that exists. They take what they want, and kill all who attempt to escape

And:

They are to meet at Racras rocks, deep in the heart of the Mardefrin Mountains.

isnt that obvious enough? I think that rules off stopping off in a town, dont you?

I am going to make a new thread for it, please try to keep on track this time

to make it even clearer:

you all start in the city. you escape into the mountains, where you set up a camp, and wait for everyone else to arrive, once they arrive, you train them all,. create an army, and take over Brazackrel

oh ok
