Forgotten Realms

The years have been brutal since the apocalyptic destruction of Waterdeep. Orcs pillage the land. Elminister has vanished without a trace and the rest of Mystral's Chosen seem to have almost lost their will to protect the weak and innocent from evil.

However hope gleams dimly in the enshrouding darkness for a long ago prophecy is slowly coming forth. A team of orphans each with their own mysterious past and hidden secrets even now gathers unaware that the fate of the world rests within them. These are their chronicles.

Rules
1) You can only rp as one character as first but if this becomes long enough I will consider allowing more characters to be used.
2) If you go a week between your posts your character will be seen as "captured."
3) Arcana and simple characters allowed.
4) Deus ex Machina types of abilities or characters prohibited.
5) If you want to have a certain type of monster attack you only, that is okay with me. However monsters or their attacks that target at least two characters must first meet with my approval. Contact me before posting such.

Any questions please contact me.

In the city of Mezzoberanzen turmoil has gripped Drow society in an unheard of state of fear. Lolth the Spider Goddess has taken control in physical form and has decreed that the Drow armies shall mobilize and rule both the Underworld and Outerworld too. Those who refuse to take up arms will be thrown alive into The Abyss forever.

However for one young Drow male, freedom is worth any cost.
His name is Jayariel Drillowup and nothing will stop him from following the path of his legendary idol Drizz't Dourden. Hunted by crazed sisters and one loathful aunt, he now makes his way slowly on his journey to the Surface in hopes of finding likeminded allies that together they might be able to save all from the darkness.

Jayariel Drillowup
Male drow
age 1000
Height/ weight 5'4 180 pounds
brown hair and eyes

Wields dual magical scimitars and is extremely fast and knowledgeable. Under the right circumstances can be a loyal friend but now is not the time. Born in the underground Drow city of Mezzoberanzen (yes I know he sounds very much like a certain other legendary drow in literature but I did not purposely use alkl of that info in his creation.) As a young child in Drow society, he watched the sacrifice of his dad as his wicked aunt performed it in service to the dread spider goddess Lloth. Being a high priestess, she was one of the more important leaders at the time and still is these many centuries later.

In the future,whoever replies next besides me controls their character until their post ends. Feel free to post any details you want but they cannot change unless something extraordinary occurs.

A deus ex machina is a plot device whereby a seemingly inextricable problem is suddenly and abruptly solved with the contrived and unexpected intervention of some new event, character, ability, or object.

This is how I intend to keep myself from godmoding.

Now that mine is no longer the only character, let us proceed. :big:

Jayariel had been wandering for a few days in the Underworld. Nearing the svirfneblin (deep gnomes) city of Blingdenstone, he decided to stop for some rest. Coming into the inn, he sees two strangers nearby and so he feels obliged to go and introduce himself to them.

"Hi my name is Jayariel Drillowup. I do not think I have ever seen anyone like you two before."

Dolf didn't notice him yet because he was screeming at the barman ''W-what do you mean you can't give me a drink!' he yelled ''This is age discrimination! do you know who i am!''

"Hey barkeep. How about a glass of tonic for him and a Drizz't Delight for me?" Jayariel said, palming over a diamond crystal. "Keep the change." "Yes sir." Within a few seconds both drinks were set before the two patrons.

'Geeh your awfully friendly sir that's pret-cough cough'' After only a small drink from his tonic he coughed it out

"Barkeep you mixed up those two drinks on purpose, I think. Tonic is the weak stuff, but my companion looks like he can't even catch his breath long enough to swallow it." Jayariel gave Randolph a hearty pat on the back to help him out.

"I'll pay for the repairs on the condition you try to not mixup anymore drinks in the future." Jayariel said with a little laugh.

Monsters attack and we defend. Journeying all over to stop evil and restore justice. And but of course tugs between party members too. lol
