Another stab at creating & running a RP!


I present:

The Mabinogion
------------------------------------------
Loosely based on the game Mabinogi.

Spoiler: Map! (click to show/hide)

Intro:

In the northern part of southern Britain Erin, there was a town named Tir Chonale.
Tir Chonale is an agricultural town, with a clear stream, the Adelia and located in a small basin. There are two minor dungeons near, Albi and Kiar, and the only road out of the basin is via the road leading to Dugald Alley. Even norther is only Sid Snetha, a wintery wasteland.

Unbeknownst to the people of Tir Chonale (or to anyone. for that matter), five different people were chosen, marked, by the gods with excellence.

The five people were -

Morighaan is the goddess of both war and peace. She is portrayed as a white robed woman with black wings and chained hands. She does not open her eyes. She governs war, peace, orderness, kindness and ruthlessness. The mark of Morighaan bestows the ability of offensive magical power and healing. However, like the chained goddess Morighaan, the person with this mark will suffer negative effects to their power.

The god of sheer power, Nuadha. Nuadha is portrayed as a short bearded man. He is very muscular and has white wings. He governs power and destruction, along with anarchy. The mark of Nuadha ensures the marked unrivaled power. But like Nuadha, who was banished from the gods' city and unable to partake in the immorality and invulnerability of the other gods, the marked one will have a weak constitution. Thankfully, Nuadha does not affect the ability to think in any capacity.

 Kihol is the god of evil. He is portrayed as a being with a black robe and hood. He has a mask with the symbol of monsters/evil (see attached). He has white wings. He  is, along with evil,  the god of endurance, both physical and mental. Also, Kihol upholds chaos and unorderness. Kihol directly opposes Morrighan. The mark of Kihol bestows high endurance in exchange for lack of physical power. Kihol also creates a higher than average magic aptitude.

Being marked by an evil god does not mean the marked is evil.

 Nemian is a god of neutralness and justice, along with rationality. She upholds no great causes.  She is portrayed as a black robed goddess with black wings. She roughly balances all the abilities. The one marked by her mark develops truely equally in all areas; yet, this may be a double-edged sword, as jack-of-all-trades may fail at doing anything correctly.

Pierro is a god of jokes, luck, handiwork and creativity. He is portrayed as a male with a colorful attire and a wide brimmed purple hat. He does not have wings. Pierro is a minor god. However, the major gods keep their respect to him - woe to the one who actually turns him to anger.

[adwarf]

I'll take Morgihaan

Name: Alexander Reos

[Skyrunner]

I'll take Pierro.

Name: Donitz Freedman

The holy, disco colored light faded as Donitz's consciousness returned. He had a vision... a view of a
god! A god! Frankly, though, it was a bit disillusioning, as he expected holyness to be ... white?
He vaguely remembered the glimpse at a god. It was a god with every single color you could imagine, and then some ... the main color was purple, though.

He said his name was Pierro.
He gave his blessing to Donitz.
He told him to stir up the world.
He also gifted him with some abilities.

For one, Donitz immidietly felt lucky. A strange feeling, that, but lucky anyhow.
Also, a stringed instrument was in his hands. It had four strings and a sound hole. The instrument was unusually heavy and sturdy looking...

Donitz remembered he had to do something - the graduation test from the school. He was to meet with the four other graduates at the Albi dungeon lobby and enter the graduation dungeon. He still had some time to go do something before the test.

Nemian.

Name: Griph

[Skyrunner]

A flash of white feathers surrounded Zario. His hand passed through them like they were just an image.
The deep voice of what could only be Kihol boomed out from the black surrounding him.

"You have been chosen by me ... do not let me down," the voice warned.

Zario felt a slight burning as a red mark appared on his upper arm.

"Do not let me down ..."

The black shimmered, the black hummed and the black dissolved into the sunny daytime of Tir Chornail.
The people around him didn't act like something out of the normal had happened, and were leading their normal, productive lifes.
Zario had felt something flowing into him in the darkness; he suddenly wanted to laugh maniatically for no reason, but that was just stupid.
He noticed that one of his swords had morphed into a black and red, sinister looking long sword. He was pretty sure it used to be a short sword...
The sword edges looked like someone had modified it with a whetstone (Sword sharpen).

He hefted both of his swords with the realization that he had a graduation test left at Albi dungeon. There was four hours until the agreeded on time.

A rushing sound, and Alexander Reos was swept into the Soul Stream, a ethreal space where only white owls live.
The visage of the goddess Tir Chornale worshipped, Morighaan herself, seared into Alexander's eyes.
She murmured, "Peace and order is the way of the world. It is how it was meant to be. Go and establish your version of peace. All peaces are equal. In the case anyone disagrees...."
Her voice dropped into a ominious octave, "Cleanse them with fire. Battle, kill them all and have them submit ... for the greater cause."
Once again, the goddess assumed a tranquil expression.
"Go ..."
Alexander blacked out (whited out?) and woke up in bed. Judging by the height of the sun, there was about 5 hours until the graduation test.

I love Mabinogi!
I'm gonna go ahead and claim the last remaining mark.
Name: Thrainn Isenwulf.

[The Fool]

The call of blood awaited him outside the city boundaries, but first there was the matter of the test. Zario quickly realized that he lacked a shield. It would be foolhardy to forget to bring such things to the test, and if the vision were right he might upset a god by dying now. He headed south to the river bridge that lead to the armory.

EDIT: I like how this is the map of the first city in Mabinogi.

[Lillipad]

I wonder if Griph will be immortal in this too.

[adwarf]

"If it is what you wish then for peace, so shall I become the Harbinger of Death." Alexander said as he stood, gathered his gear, and walked out of the door. Alexander headed toward the armory as he had a more deadly weapon in mind for his use, he would throw aside protection for he had no need of it, his Goddess was watching over him, and he would fight for the sake of peace. All those who would wish to take up a weapon to harm the lives of innocents would be his foes. All those who dared disrupt the peace would die by his blade. For the sake of peace Alexander pledged to become Death itself.

And Death needed a fitting weapon, one few would use, and many would fear. What Alexander sought was a Scythe that stood his size. It would strike fear into the hearts of his foes for upon seeing it they shall know death has come. It shall reap the lives of mean as easily as if they were grass. All those who would oppose the peace would die.
