Legends of Tyrrus OOC/Signups

Legends of Tyrrus

Lore​

Tyrrus. It is said that long ago the Dragonqueen Zythia built this land for her devout followers to thrive in, but that was long ago. This is a land with great magical presence, the Archmages of the Citadel delve into magical power and encourage the practice of magic across the land. But it is also a time of great scientific progression as scientists attempt to drive themselves out of the dark ages and discover the secrets of the universe. (basically think european renaissance era but with magic). The myths and legends of the past are being disregarded in favour of rationality; mysticism and religion is making way for the inevitable progression of science.

But recently events have happened which have shaken the foundations of our faith. Armies of the dead have been invading, things we never thought possible have returned, people are putting their faith in gods and dragons once again due to the mysterious events of recent years. Additionally a national curiosity has arisen about the lands beyond...

Tyrrus is surrounded on three sides by sheer mountains and on a fourth by a stormy sea that few have crossed, few passages are available to escape the land but for most of Tyrranean history the people have never wanted to go beyond, they were safe in Tyrrus and the lands beyond were said to be savage and dangerous. After recent events have shaken our faith in our science and government though the people look to a greater power and begin to realise the truth of the myths and legends of the past.

Rules​

Spoiler: Rules

HOW TO PLAY​

This system is actually pretty complex so I would recommend reading through this otherwise you'll have no clue what's going on. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask.


Health and Status

Spoiler

You health is a measure of how much vigour and energy you have, how much fight you’ve got left. When health reaches 0 you are unconscious, or possibly dead.
You limbs, head and torso have a status.
Healthy - There’s nothing wrong
Slightly Injured - you’ve been cut or bruised and that particular body part is not as effective. If a body part takes over 25% of your health as damage it is slightly injured.
Severely Injured - you’re seriously wounded, using that body part hurts you and is much less effective. If a body part takes over 50% of your health as damage it is severely injured
Crippled - that body part is unusable and your total health is reduced by 10 until you recover. If a body part takes 75% of your health as damage it is crippled.
Being exhausted decreases your health.

Mana and Favour

Spoiler

Mana is how much magical energy you have. Using magic costs mana, you can’t use more mana than you have. Mana slowly recovers over time, at a rate of 1 mana every 15 minutes (in game time).
Favour is how much favour with the gods you have and lets you perform incantations and rituals. You can gain favour by being devout to the gods, praying to them, and giving them sacrifices. Favour does not naturally recover.

Attributes

Spoiler

There are 8 attributes that define your character:
Strength - determines how strong your character is. This is used in fighting and performing feats of strength.
Constitution - determines how tough your character is. This is used in fighting, defending, resisting effects, and grants more health.
Agility - determines how agile your character is, this is used in fighting, sneaking and performing feats of agility.
Precision - determines how precise your character is. This is used in shooting ranged weapons, using your hands with precision, and generally performing feats of precision.
Magic - determines how good your character is at magic. This gives more mana and is useful when performing feats of magic.
Faith - determines how much willpower and devotion to the gods your character has. This is useful when doing rituals, performing feats of willpower, and grants higher favour with the gods.
Intelligence - determines how perceptive and intelligent your character is. Useful in perception, crafting, and generally performing feats of intelligence.
Charisma - determines how charismatic and persuasive your character is. Useful when talking and generally makes your character a bigger presence in any room.

Levelling

Spoiler

Rather than levelling up as a whole, you level in each individual attribute as you perform actions involving them. For example, if you successfully run away from someone chasing you, I would give you a level up in agility. As you level up in these attributes you gain attribute points in them. You also gain skill points.

Skills

Spoiler

As you level up in various attributes you gain skill points, which can be spent on skills in skill trees.
The physical skills have three different skill trees, each of which has three branches
Strength - Levelling up in strength and constitution grants points in this

• Fighting
• Defending
• Endurance

Dexterity

• Movement
• Finesse
• Shooting

Intellect

• Knowledge
• Diplomacy
• Perception

The skill tree can be found here

Note that you cannot get a skill until you get the one that comes before it.

Magic

Spoiler

Magic also has skill trees, but these grant you spells and advanced control over your magic. There are several different schools of magic:

• Electromancy (Lightning)
• Wind Magic
• Cryomancy (Ice)
• Arcane Magic
• Hydromancy (Water)
• Plant Magic
• Druidery (Animals)
• Geomancy (Earth)
• Pyromancy (Fire)
• Psychic

You can focus on one of these or branch out.
The Magic skill tree can be found here:

You can’t get a spell until you get the one that comes before it.

Rituals and Incantations

Spoiler

Those who worship the gods can use their divine power to their advantage with the use of rituals and incantations. These require setup and may take some time, but offer powerful rewards.

• Light Magic
• Dark Magic
• Necromancy
• Dragon Magic

The Ritual skill tree can be found here:

You can’t get a ritual until you get the one that comes before it.

Crafting

Spoiler

These are miscellaneous non/pseudo-magical skills which require the use of materials to do.

• Alchemy
• Enchanting
• Surgery
• Survival Skills
• Blacksmithing

The Crafting skill tree can be found here:

You can’t get a crafting skill until you get the one that comes before it.

Making your Character

Spoiler

The Character Sheet can be found here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xePD-47Qlq015t4b2Ouv1zl3HZOSZjkoJqRHA17WNy8/edit?usp=sharing

To begin with, your character will not be very powerful. But as you level up that will change. You begin with 20 attribute points to put into your base attributes. You cannot put more than 5 in any one attribute.
You begin with a level 1 in every attribute. You can choose one attribute to be level 3 in and one to be level 2 in. As the game goes on you’ll get more levels.
There will be a number next to the box that says “Skill Points”, this is how many skills you can choose in that tree. In the Skills tab it should show all of the skills, with explanations of what they do if you hover your mouse over them. Pay attention to the layout of the skill tree (link in the Skills section of this page). The same goes for magic, rituals and crafting.
(Special rule for the “Knowledge” bit, you can only learn these from a teacher or mentor. I will allow each character to start with one knowledge skill, if they wish, but the rest must be learned)

MY CHARACTERS​

Name: Sanderson Bracklewood

Age: 32

Class: Hunter

Weapon(s): Hunting Rifle, Pistol, Blunderbuss

Armour: Fur coat and scarf

Appearance: Sanderson has a well-kept appearance, his brown hair is styled stylishly and he has blue eyes. Sanderson wears typical nobility clothes most of the time but when he is out adventuring wears a fur coat and scarf. He seems to constantly have a genial expression and looks upon the world with kindness. He is 6”2' and has quite a stocky build.

Personality: Sanderson is a curious individual who loves to discover more about the world, he is also a very polite chap and never judges others for their faults, he prefers to see the good in people. He is very talkative and can often ramble on about insignificant matters, he absolutely loves to talk about the outside world and his adventures. However, there is some subtle hidden anger behind that friendly face, a rage well controlled and barely noticeable to most.

Backstory: When Sanderson was born the Bracklewood family was in a bit of a crisis, they were going down in significance in Varewyn and were going bankrupt, they even had to leave the Bracklewood Manor. While most of the family moved up to Eredan where they could live for less, Sanderson's parents still wanted him to have an education in Varewyn, thus he was sent to be cared for by the Zaunus's in Varewyn and grow up with them, learning all about technology and science from their respected professors. Sanderson quickly became friends with another child being brought up by the Zaunus's, Kolbjorn. But Sanderson was a curious child and always wanted to learn more, when he was 20 he and Kolbjorn made a plan to leave and discover more of the world. They travelled through the many ruined castles of Tyrrus, seeking secrets. They travelled among the tribes of the Hinterlands and learned of their dark magic. They even climbed up into the mountains and found dragons of all shapes and sizes. However it was when they travelled into the Northlands that Sanderson began to think they were going too far, they went even beyond Mortholme, the cold ruins that marked the northernmost point of the known world. But Kolbjorn would not give up and strode on beyond the Northern mountains. Sanderson had no choice but to leave him.
When Osfryd Zaunus travelled beyond the mountains in 2015 Sanderson realised there was a whole new world out there to discover, but realised it would be dangerous to go alone. He began to set up the Adventurer's Society to discover the world beyond.

Name: Aston Venger
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Class: Blademaster
Weapon(s): Arming Sword, Shortsword
Armour: Reinforced leather
Magic/incantations:
Crafting: None
Specialism: AP
Appearance: Here
Personality: He's confident and a bit of a flirt. He respects people who fight well and fight fairly. Equally, he is narcisstic at times and prone to getting frustrated when there is little progress made in anything. This is why he loses at fights often, because he loses his cool and with it, his technique.
Origination: Whytehold
Backstory: Aston is the son of a wealthy merchant who owns some of the mines that produce the raw materials used in the creation of Whytehold steel. Because his father is so closely related to the business of arms because he provides the materials for them, Aston grew up with a healthy interest in the noble art of combat. He often read stories about great warriors and one of them depicted a warrior famous for his dual wielding technique. Aston asked his father if, on his twelfth birthday, he could begin to learn how to fight. His father accepted and paid the best tutor he could find to teach his son. It took a lot of effort to make him into a decent fighter, but with effort he became better. At sixteen, he was allowed to attend a school of swordsmanship run by one of the finest tutors in Tyrrus where he began to excel, such that he was able to enter an advanced class of fighters which allowed for finer technique and experimentation for specific fighting styles for unconventional/uncommon weapons. Aston joined this class for dual wielding and began to practice the art.

Eventually, he left to take his talents out to the wider world. He entered low to medium competitions, not being high enough status to fight with the much better trained and even wealthier great knights. However, he managed to earn a reasonable reputation in those lower levels of competition, beating some of the young knights that fell below their more skilled kin and some notable squires. Despite this, he found that the competitions became boring because to him, they were all the same thing over and over again and there were only so many fangirls that one could put up with. Aston decided that he had no interest in his father's mines and would leave that to his younger sister Sara and go out into the wider world. Thusly, he joined the Adventurer's Society. As he had a reasonable amount of experience, he was able to take a leading role in the Society.

Around her sixteenth year she discovered that Mam was using the children as a gang force to fight and steal, and since went on the run, refusing to be used for such base purposes. She feels that she has a higher calling, other then stealing her meals and working magic for a small amount of coin, but she has yet to find what it is.

According to his dear old mum, it messed with the chemistry in his head, and whenever he becomes enraged he turns into a murdering psychopath that only sees red. His parents sent him away to be apprenticed, more for their safety then his, and his master had the sense to make him train in the woods and get more of a handle on his "madness". He has returned home now, in hope of redemption and rejoining the family he has longed for.

Name: Aedan Maedoc
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Class: Druid
Weapon(s): A long carved oak staff.
Armour: Robes
Magic/incantations: Earth Magic, Light - Holy
Crafting: Medicine, Alchemy
Specialism: Mana
Appearance: This
Personality: Aedan is relatively mature and attempts to remain calm in all situations, though his curiosity may overpower his normal good sense. He does not like violence and seeks to avoid it when possible. He cares about nature and the environment because he grew up in such close proximity to it. He is slow to anger and when angered, prefers to express it in words rather than in violent action. In certain circumstances, he will resort to violence but will avoid killing where possible. This is often in cases where the opposing side has committed an obvious wrong.
Origination: Woodholme
Backstory: Aedan grew up in a community of druidic people, dedicated to Earth Magic and becoming one with nature in their forest home. While by no means ignorant of the modern world of Tyrrus, they preferred to stick to the traditional ways where possible. Aedan did not pay too much attention to the particulars of the Religious aspect, though he did hold the Mother in a high regard as all his people did, because he was dedicated to a more practical approach. He focused on learning how nature could provide for humans and how to use nature to aid mankind's struggle for survival. He learned some applications for medicine, and some applications for alchemy. When he got older, Aedan found that he was curious about the outside world and so set out to explore it with the blessing of his people. They believed that someone should explore the beauty of the Mother's world, so they allowed Aedan to explore.

Origination: The Country, Woodholme
Backstory: Alice had a rather simple life. When Alice was five there was a mysteries flooding in her house in the middle or the dry season. Alice later found out that that a pipe broke in the basement of her home. The only odd thing after that day was she was kept away from water as much as possible. Her mother told her a story about the rich putting something in the water and to limit the water she would come across. She had gotten older and her mother seemed to be increasingly on edge as the years went on. Alice sometimes felt like her mother maybe hiding something from her. She never asked her mother what was bothering her and she continued to live a simple life. One day she was out in the nearby woods. She stood by a winding river that leads to the town she lived in. She was out later then she should be when a wolf leaped out to attack her, then something unexpected happened and the water shot out and knocked the wolf back. Alice was so frightened by this she rushed home and talked to her mother about this. Her mother then told her a story about magic and that she had some. The next day she left the town to explore the world.

Crafting: Medicine
Specialism: Health
Appearance: Long black hair, brown eyes and a rough beard, relatively muscular, just your average barbarian

Name: Nasir
Gender: Male
Age: 26
Class: Slave-trader
Weapon(s): Longspear
Armour: Cloth armour
Magic/incantations: Pure Magic (otherworld), and Light (Justice)
Crafting: Alchemy
Specialism: AP
Appearance: Here, take it
Personality: Bit of an a*****e, very rude and bossy. Doesn't like loss of control, and if he doesn't get his way he will resort to whatever means necessary to get it. VERY enthusiastic about slavery.
Origination: Eredan
Backstory: Nasir doesn't socialize much unless he can make a profit from it. He hates people, people hate him, it works out rather nicely. He had a relatively standard upbringing, nothing too fancy or anything, until he broke into the slavery trade. He loved it, he got paid for ruining peoples' lives, what more could a man want? Day by day he attempted to capture people and sell them into slavery, sometimes taking homeless people by surprise and other times actually convincing them it could be a good life (but those ones were incredibly stupid and nobody wanted them), until the undead began rising. Ever the businessman, Nasir didn't see this as a threat but rather as an investment. What could be better than a slave that you could work to death repeatedly?

Name: Tobias Greipr
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Class: Assassin
Weapon(s): Daggers and throwing knives
Armour: Light armour
Magic/incantations: Dark (trickery) incantation
Specialism: AP
Appearance: HERE
Personality: A little sadistic, little bit of a massochist too, but driven and very strong-willed. Friendly enough until injury comes into play.
Origination: The wilderness
Backstory:
Not much happened during Tobias' childhood. He grew up in an abusive household, being yelled at and injured all over the place. Eventually, he came to like it to an extent, almost as much as he liked harming others. This didn't change as he got older, shown in many ways.
He found work as an assassin, doing jobs for small amounts of money, but over time this began to bore him. He wanted more, he wanted more challenging jobs, and he found it with the uprising of the dead. He could kill them but they were much more difficult, and so he dedicated much of his time to picking them off. Some may come to see him as a hero, others as the scumbag he is, but who really cares?

 

Name: Lumen Seiker
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Class: DIVINE KNIGHT!!!! (in training)
Weapon(s): A long sword named Luxcaliber
Armour: Leather
Magic/incantations:
Pure Magic (Otherworld)
SEIGEI!!!!! (Justice)
Crafting: Runic Writing
Specialism: Mana
Appearance: ◉
Personality: Despite his formal attire, Lumen has a carefree air to him. He prefers to do things at his own pace rather then feel rushed in his actions. That aside, he's a noble person when in comes down his beliefs and actions (at times). Usually if something doesn't sit right with him, he's likely to either intervene or involve himself in his own unique way.
Origination: Haven
Backstory: Lumen's early life was filled with various things being expected of him due to his lineage and while he was certainly proud of who he was descendant of, he was not fond of all the expectations. To him they were restricting his way of life, keeping him from being how he truly wanted to be. Unfortunately there wasn't much that he could do in lew of complaints since any complaints of his were met with the expectation card being thrown right at his face. Being face with his innate desire to avoid disappointment, he had little choice but to endure it. Time went on and while Lumen did gradually adjust to having all the expected placed onto his, with the help of his friends he was able to remain his carefree self and not lose sight of who he truly was.

 

accepted, nicely specialised characters

Please can you specify what kind of armour Kara has, light or heavy. Personally i would recommend light as it works well with dual wielding. Other than that you're accepted :)

Accepted, despite the use of TV tropes to explain the character

Accepted, and I'm already shipping Aedan x Panola

Accepted finally, thanks for changing that stuff

Welcome back Baldomar.

Other than the fact your characters will probably get sent to prison, accepted.

Accepted. Although "carefree air" is an odd combination with "DIVINE KNIGHT!!!" and "SEIGEI!!!" XD

 

Name: Iris Dagaz

Gender: Female

Age: 23

Class: Priestess

Weapon(s): Pure Staff

Armour: Cloth ropes

Magic/incantations:
-Light: Fortune
-Pure: Overworld
Crafting: Medicine
Specialism: AP

Appearance: Stands at around 5'7", (about 170 cm.) Here for more details.

Personality: Someone who seems just a tad bit odd. She seems to have a constantly upbeat and somewhat carefree demeanor about herself, and somewhat projects herself as an airhead. In spite of this, she is a more observant fellow than one would be let on to. Is a somewhat religious fellow who believes in spreading good fortune to others.

Origination: Thassalus

Backstory:
Born in Thassalus, Iris was someone who had been made to learn the importance of her religion early on. Due to her family owning a shrine, Iris was someone who had been made to learn magic and incantations early on, and due to being somewhat proficient in both, her help was often sought after within the shrine. However, as time had gone on, and all she had done was work for the shrine, Iris felt as though she was missing something crucial in her life. It wasn't as though she felt unhappy, more so a feeling close to being incomplete. Of course, not being able to figure out just what it was she was missing, Iris decided to start looking for just what it could be, and if it could be found in other people. So, she took to trying to learn more about others, and after awhile realized that the answer she was looking for would never present itself while she stayed put in Thassalus, and thus had decided it was time to move away from her home life and find just what it was in the world that she needed to find.

 

Name: Kevin Stilt
Gender: male
Age: 21
Class: ranged rogue(Assassin)
Weapon(s): Pistols, Daggers
Armour: light
Magic/incantations: na
Crafting: I don’t know
Specialism: Ap
Appearance: picture,



Kevin has a well-kept appearance, and short blond hair. Kevin’s eyes are bright blue. Kevin wears dark black pants and shirt.
Personality: Kevin is quite serous when he needs to be. He is troubled by his past and said very little about it. While not always true when he was younger he loves to discover more about the world and travel. He can be rather intelligent. After ending up in Whytehold he attempts to remain calm in all situations due to his past and not wanting others to go on the same path.
Origination: Whytehold
Backstory: At a young age of 5 he was at the wrong place at the wrong time. He was picked up a gang of assassins whose life mission was to make as much money as possible. Not know what to do he had not choice, but to join the assassins. The assassins kept him on watch all time. He had no means of escape nor a reason to. Over the years the assassin’s gang began to trust him. They taught him the way of stealth and assassins, but yet he was never as good as them. 8 years later at the age of 13 he was fully accepted by the assassins, but he could not help think that they still did not trust him. He was always with another member of the assassin’s gang. 2 years after that he was out on job in Whytehold with the members of the group. Something went wrong and they left them to take the heat. That was when he was taken in to the militarily. They soon discovered that Kevin could not have done the dead, that he was not trained enough to do it. Kevin soon was taken into the militarily and trained there. While it was odd for someone so young to go into the militarily he did it anyways. Most of all he wanted to stop the assassins. Militarily training was, by far harder than anything he did before. They had to go in snow and water and anything under the sun. Being in the militarily he was able to travel quite a bit. Kevin now 21 was ready to set out on an adventure.
ooc: might change the picture

This is the character sheet. The only bits you need to worry about are the stats (far left) and the skills and perk chart (far right). Each of you will have to allocate numbers to the stats (strength, agility, etc.) on the character sheet. You are given 6 numbers to stick into your stats:
17, 15, 12, 10, 5, 2
So for exampe if I were playing a fighter I would put that 17 into strength and the 2 in magic, since magic would be my least needed stat.

Additionally you need to put skill points into the skill chart, which may seem complicated at first. Basically you have 5 points, stick them into various skills you want (bear in mind the "light herald" and "dark bringer" are not available yet)(Also if you want the rituals you have to have a point in the corresponding "favour" skill. So for Dark Rituals you have to have Unholy Favour and for Divine Calling (light rituals) you have to have a point in Holy Favour). Read the skill chart section above for more information on this.

Each of your characters has a tab at the bottom for them, please only edit your own character sheet (I'm looking at you Vlad)

 

There is a problem with that chart. The lies you told and I thought you were a robot :P (you forgot me :( )

 

Might as well stick up the Expeditions

There are two expeditions we'll begin with, these are nothing overly complex yet they're just to introduce you all to the system and get your characters acquainted

Darklight Disturbance
Primary Expedition Leader: Shyra Bracklewood
Secondary Expedition Leader: Aston Venger
Summary: Travelling to the Darklight Caverns, the strange caverns under the Sunset Mountains, to try and maybe find something and train the newbies
Members: (6/8)
Anthea (Ranged damage dealer)
Bryce (Tank)
Alice (Support)

Badun (Ranged damage dealer)

Big Game Hunting
Primary Expedition Leader: Sanderson Bracklewood
Summary: Drakes in the north have been showing unusual behaviour lately and coming down from the moutains, the town of Fordington has an infestation. Seems like a good time to go hunting, train the newbies, and help out some people while we do it

Laurentius (Tank)
Aeden (Support)
Kara (Melee/Ranged damage dealer)

Please post saying which mission you want your characters on

 

Aston doesn't have a choice, and Aedan goes Big Game Hunting!
