((I think I might join this but I have a few quick questions first
1. What are the current groups and where are they?
2. How large is one section of the map? Like, is each cube a kilometer or what .
3. Can my character be a creature with the ability to morph? Nothing OP, I promise you and I will have a way to counter this ability
Thank you for your time and I hope to write up an app once my questions are answered ))
(( Thank you for asking, I'll try to answer them as best possible as I can.
1) The current existing groups can be seen under "Accepted Applications". From what I still know is that most people are either in the "Forbidden Forest" or in Housesteads.
2) Size is irrelevant. A similar question was asked on page 1 and answered on post #12.
3) I don't really like morphing characters. But I'm willing to hear your suggestion and to discuss/negotiate them, preferably via PM.
That done, I gotta apologize to everyone for my not so satisfying activity. Due to two major exams I didn't get much time and I am, to be honest, quite exhausted. I'll try to have my next post and have a better look on any applications I missed out or haven't had a proper look at.
Nevertheless, feel free to interact with Tynebris/Fenix.

(( Players, don't rush with the time.
@ProPoro, thanks for sumarizing it for me. I'll take it into consideration.
@Hexacore, I'm no big fan about transformations. The reason why I accepted FireWarrior's application is because the werewolf form doesn't seem to be a breaker. But I'll have a better look once I am at home. Currently on the go.))
"You just need to wait a bit, I'm sure the messenger will spread the news today. If he doesn't I can repeat what he said to me." Fenix says. "If you want we could even have a look from a far, but not close up." the trader adds. "Why don't we go now and explore it?" the dragon asks impatiently. "Did you already forget why we are here in the first place? We got to deliver something, meeting point is here. The customer said I shouldn't be surprised, he added that someone unusual will pick it up." Fenix replies.
(( I'll have a look at your application Hexacore, once my surrounding isn't as loud as it currently is. ))
The two eat up their dinner without speaking a word with each other. As Fenix was done he boldly said bye to the messenger and went out of the inn. Suddenly Tynebris jumps onto him, but Fenix was somewhat expecting it and dodges the dragon. "You didn't need long to get out of the stable, did you?" the trader asks, laughing a bit. "It was the easiest part." Tynebris replies. "Will you tell me the story the messenger told you?" the dragon asks curiously, his tail waggling from side to side.

The flight to Housestead was rather calm but interesting. The messenger told Fenix about the reports from the sea explorers. Apparently they land turned in a short time purple, the mountain turned almost completely black as coal. There are still trees, but their color is in different shades of purple. The beach however was untouched, as if whatever is happening there it can't change the sand. That is all the messenger knows. It was a lot of detail which Tynebris most probably would have loved to know, but the dragon had to focus on flying with extra weight.
As the sun started to set they finally arrived in Housesteads. "Well then, hopefully you can spread the news fast enough. If you need a ride back in two or three days find us and you can come with again. I'll have to show Tynebris Housesteads a bit, it's rare for him to be here." Fenix says while petting the dragon. "Sure thing, thanks again for taking me with. What is your name actually?" the messenger says gratefully. "I am Davis Fenix and this is Tynebris. It was a pleasure to meet you." the merchant replies as the messenger heads to the inn.
"Could you repeat to me his story?" the dragon asks curiously looking at Fenix. "I'll tell it to you tomorrow, but now we need to find a stable for you." he replies. "Promise me you'll tell it to me tomorrow." the dragon asks again. "Yes, yes dear. I will, but remind me." the merchant sighs. They go to a stable and Fenix pays for Tynebris a big sized one. "Now sleep well and behave, we are somewhat know in the Trader-Guild." Fenix says as he locks the stable.
Afterwards Fenix goes to the inn and has a late dinner before he heads to bed. "This inn didn't change much since my last visit." Fenix mumbles to himself. After eating he heads up to the his room. It can't be true what the messenger reported. I thought it would just be some made up story, but what if it is true? Fenix thought shortly before falling asleep.
The sun rises: a new day and a new adventure. Fenix gets up and after getting dressed he heads down to have a decent breakfast. It's no big surprise that he sees the messenger here too, this inn is a hotspot. "Good morning sir." the messenger says to Fenix, who greets back. "Do you think it is true what the explorers reported?" Fenix asks. "I don't know, I'm just a messenger. It's not my job to find out if it is true or not. But why don't you pay the island a visit with your dragon? Isn't he eager to know more about it, Mr. Fenix?" the messenger asks firmly. "He sure is, but I can't risk his life, he isn't a war-beast." Fenix replies. With that said the conversation settles down and they don't speak to each other while eating.
After the meal Tynebris went back into his stable to rest till they Fenix has packed the goods. The time flies by and the trader wakes Tynebris up. "Wake up dear, it's time to fly." Fenix says in a calm tone. Just as Fenix finished his sentence someone hastily knocks on the massive and big mansion door.
He rushes to the door and opens it, just to his surprise it is a messenger. "I've heard you are flying to Housesteads, could you take me with? I got to deliver a message." the messenger begs panting. "Sure you can, but why in such a hurry?" the trader asks confused. "Some sea explorer returned and noticed something abnormal on the norther tiny island. I came from Vindobona to here and now I still need to deliver the message to Housesteads." the messenger replies. "If you could wait a minute till Tynebris is ready to fly, then I can take you with." Fenix explains.
Fenix finishes packing the crates and secures it on Tynebris' belly. "We will take someone with us, but you are a strong dragon, you sure can handle the extra weight with ease." Fenix says while petting the dragon to prevent him from answering. They exit the mansion, lock all doors and head to Housesteads.
Age: Dead (But looks as if though he is in his thirties.)
Personality: Cold and uncaring about the business of the living, but surprisingly easy and clear to interact with. Cares deeply for the proper death rites and shuns burial.
Biography: Coming from a time long before the current era, Kain was a knight of the past selected to take part in a crusade to the southern desert island along with hundreds of others. What was found there was said to be so horrible that every knight of the crusade took their lives in order to protect the world from horrors of the cursed island.
Kain was one of those brave knights, and he as well as the others died by the knights' code, from a stab in the heart, only to rise from the dead years later. From his rebirth he has journeyed to the mainland keeping the story of the curse afloat.
Appearance: Standing 1.9 meters tall, Kain has a large, muscular build like the knights of old typically did. He wears full body armour to keep his partially peeled off flesh from showing and carries a large two-handed sword with skull decorations, something made for him by the other undead. The left side of his face has already rotten off, leaving him with only a single eye and poor depth vision, and the other half clearly shows a battle-worn man from the north. His armour, helmet and sword are unlike the style used these days, and on them are forged curious symbols.
Starting Location: Q2/22 - Housesteads
Notes/Suggestions: Nothing really special
Faction Application:
Name: Cursed Knights
Race: Undead
Gender: Only male, for female knights were not allowed at the time of the crusade.
Age expectancy: With proper care, the inhabitants are practically undying of age on the cursed island. Elsewhere their bodies begin decomposing slowly due to the effect of the curse driving off insects and the like.
Predominant race: Undead, as hardly anything else is capable of surviving on the island.
History: The knights of old, as depicted in legends, were sent off to ward off an evil curse that plagues the land of the south. Along with them were some of the so-called "legendary knights" of the time. As they left the mainland, a fog appeared out of nowhere and they were never heard of again. The legends were nearly forgotten until recently, when "storytellers" appeared. The storytellers are rumored to be the ancient knights.
What the legends don't tell is the story of the knights of the old. When they set foot on the cursed land and found the horrors on it, they deemed it best to take their own lives as by the code of the knights. Yet they were already afflicted by the curse for life - and death..
Appearance: The knights are all dead, which is fairly well visible as their skin is white due to the lack of flowing blood. They are all strong-looking men, but reduced from knighthood to simply living their undead lives, they have lost their vigor. They cannot kill themselves, and many have decided to protect the secret of the cursed land by sending storytellers to the outside world every few decades.
Point of interest application: B3/10 - The Undead Fortress
(( Your application sounds good. Your character is accepted. Could you please give some information about "The Undead Fortress? ))

Age:12
Personality:Short tempered.In a good mood, nice.
Biography:
Altha once had a family. She lived with her pack, and had a nice life. But then the hunters came. They hunted down every one of her pack, capturing them or killing them. She was just a cub then, so she hid under a bush and waited until the hunters went away. After that, she wandered for days. She arrived at a witch's hut. In the hut, a witch was brewing a potion. The witch was mad at something, and was irritated at the moment. The potion went wrong, so the witch flung it out the window. The potion splashed on Altha, so then she became a werewolf. She turned into a young girl, and at full moons, turns into a wolf and goes insane. She wandered about, then found a village. A nice woman took her in. Now she is living in the village. But then everything changes when she goes insane again at the full moon and finds herself in the middle of nowhere...

Starting Location: The west border of the forbidden forest
Notes/Suggestions: Might meet some goblins along the way to Homesteads?
(( According to your given character-age your wolf-form is rather 'weak', so you are accepted. The goblin thing you'll have to talk with Meritania.))
(( Sorry for late replies, players! I've been very busy this week due to two exams being intotal worth of 7hours exam-duration. Next week I'll have two more exams, but not as time consuming as the two from this week. Nevertheless I am trying my best to squeeze roleplaying into my few hours of free-time I got. ))
Tynebris arrived at home just in time. "Were you again at the lake?" Fenix asks as the dragon bursts through the doors. "Am I late?" Tynebris replies. "You just came in time. Back to my question." the trader says. "I have been there, but how did you know?" the black dragon asks confused. "It's your favorite spot and some days ago some hunters reported a dragon at the lake, which I assume was you." Fenix answers. "Eat up and get ready, in two hours we will fly to Housesteads. We got a delivery to bring to a customer."
<To be continued.>
-snip-
((Also... got an idea of how I can start?))
(( You could start out returning to homestead or being ambushed by robbers etc. Or you have your character 'timeskip'[check post #12 for a definition on travelling in this roleplay.] to Osprey. Towns are always full of wierd things. ))
((I am assuming that it is still night at Houseteads? Or may I timeskip it forward?
By the way, I don't know what history to come up for the Domitor people so any suggestions or tweaks would b great. Please go easy on my lousy history thing for the clan. =p ))
Faction application:
Name: Domito Fera Clan
Predominant Race: Human (but this people are referred to Domitors)
Gender: Equal number of men and women. Women do a lot of taming and training like the men.
Life Expectancy: 60
Personalities: Two traits that all but a few Domitors share is nigh-perfect self-discipline and a love for creatures. The notable exception of these people concerning the first trait is Abby Domito (she does love creatures of all kinds). Everything else about these people is as variable as any other human in the world.
History: Over 350 years ago, a handful (about 4) of families settled at the "large" small island just north of the desert island.
They got there by a storm crashing their shared ship onto land. These families were well-known tamers, trainers, and breeders looking for exotic creatures; thus, they did not carry many weapons, farming supplies, nor did they know how to make or repair a ship. Being stuck on this land that has never been settled on, they made temporarily residences and did their best. After 10 years of waiting for people to find them, they didn't care for leaving anymore since they have made themselves decent homes and tamed amazing creatures. The survival of all of the families is mostly attributed to the Domito family.
About 10 years even later, people did find them by accident when looking for land to settle...only to find it has already been claimed. The Domitors have been trading creatures for other goods ever since.
Personality: Caring, and kind, yet impatient. He means well, but he is a bit on the clumsy side and
could mess things up pretty badly. He is also a bit nervous around women.
Biography: Drake was born to a family of wealthy knights. For years he looked up to his father, he believed
his father was the best knight in all the land... even though he wasn't. At a young age his father left him
and his mother to go protect a neighboring village. A few days later his father never returned. His mother
assured him that his father is fine, and that he will return soon. A few weeks a friend of his father, and
a fellow knight came to their house and told them some pretty bad news. Drake's father went missing.
Reportedly he disappeared on his way back home. Not only did Drake's father go missing, but other knight's
as well. Ever since Drake wanted to become a knight. Currently he is still working on finishing his training
He wishes to figure out what happened to his father and the other knight's.
Appearance:
His swordStarting Location: Just outside of the Forbidden Forest. Notes/Suggestions: None currently.
(( Looks okay, I suppose it is a normal sword. From my point of knowledge: you are accepted. ))
((Didnt even realize that it was reviewed.... Anyway, of course its lacking, Meritania described goblin personality already, there is no real difference. If biography is the problem, well this is really the only important time of his life, he isn't influenced because of his background, he is influenced by his personality, his background is meant to be unknown.
But if forced I'd probably just say he has normal goblin parents, no siblings, single, and has never been defined as rich or poor. He was given general position due to his tactical thinking and his enchanted blade was stolen by his ancestor from one of the wizards that created them.
See?))
(( The personality is also determined by the story. Your application is accepted, but please put more effort in your posts. ))
Name: Sirius Race: Human (assassin) Gender: Male Age: 29 Personality: Sirius is loyal to his friends and family and will protect them at all costs. During his contracts he always considers every option and isn't afraid to get in a fight. He is athletic and can run fast, climb buildings and trees and jump from building to building. Unlike the rest of his family, Sirius makes sure his victims suffer as little pain as they need to. Biography: Sirius' family is a group of assassins. His family accepts contracts from anyone who is willing to pay a sufficient amount of money. He was taught at a young age how to use a bow and a dagger by his father and brothers. When he became old enough, he accepted his first contract. This contract was to eliminate another assassin. He succeeded but most of his family were killed in an ambush. Only he and his brother escaped with their lives. They decided that someone had tipped off the other assassin, causing the death of his family. With their parents and other siblings gone, Sirius and his brother (Raiko) went into hiding until a friend gave them a contract a few years later they couldn't ignore; assassinating the person who helped kill his family. Appearance: Dark brown hair, white skin, wears hunter clothes to make the bow on his back and dagger look less suspicious Starting Location: 2C/10 (just outside the house where the contract lives) Notes/Suggestions: Raiko is an NPC I will be taking control of.
(( Reminded me on assasin creed. Your application sounds interesting: accepted. ))
Name: Wyld Blaze
Race: Goblin
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Personality: More tactical and complex thinking than the average goblin
Biography: His goblin clan, the black plains clan unearthed years ago, they avoid human settlements but raid any trade routes. He is currently general of the wolf raiders.
Appearance: green black skin with long hair, bronze armor. He rides upon his black wolf Blademaw
Starting Location: northern plains
Notes/Suggestions: he carries an enchanted fire blade
(( With northern plains I suppose you mean around N2/28. Please try to add a bit more content, it does seem a bit less. ))
Name: Abigail "Abby" Domito
Race: Human (maybe subspecies of human and not full human)
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Personality: A very attentive person, she is quick to catch on to people's emotions and what is going on around her. This trait is sometimes overshadowed by her tendency to be as light-hearted as she can. Abby is normally light hearted and bounces back quickly from most stressful situations. Due to the previous trait, she comes off as airy to many people. Unlike most of her fellow Domitors, she is quite lazy and puts off things to the last second....assuming she is assigned anything at all...which makes her not that great at taming and training creatures.
Biography: Abby is from the Domito family: the most successful and oldest family - and founders - of the Domito people. Generation after generation, the Domito family has produced excellent beast tamers and trainers, with the exception of Abby. Abby didn't and still doesn't care all that much for her family's trade or her people's heritage, nor dos she practice one of the well-known, almost universal trait of Domitors: self-discipline. Thus, she is of great embarrassment. Although not cast out or outright shunned, she is just not talked about or gets highly disapproving looks because she is born to the founding family. At the age of 20, Abby left on a boat with few belongings and supplies on the back of her plain-brown Simurgh to the main island to explore, learn, have fun, and secretly...to attempt developing self-discipline.
Appearance: 5'4 (basically average height). Well-worn, semi-loose, brown hide rider's pants and a plain, mid-sleeved, yellow-white wool shirt. For footwear she has old (celtic styled) boots.
Starting Location: At an inn at Housesteads.
Notes/Suggestions: Nothing that I can think of at the moment.
((It is mid-night where I am, so is it okay if I make the faction/subspecies tomorrow (assuming this application is okay)?))
(( The application seems okay: the character is accepted.
You can make a faction/subspecies application later on, but while there is no application for it or it is denied then your character will be a normal human. ))
(( IC-Content below: ))
Tynebris fell asleep while observing the cloud and after and hour or two he woke up again. The sun shining onto him, partially blinding his eyes. The dragon yawns. Ah, this is so comfortable, nothing to do but relax. he thinks as he suddenly remembers that when he doesn't come in time home he will have to go hunt for food on his own. Tynebris launches into the rushing back home. I hope I am not late!
((Just saw the notes and I don't think I can make an app due to the inability to choose what race you are... That can lead to god modding... Trust me my rp died because of that...))
(( Pardon? I can't seem to find any note stating you may not choose what race you are. In the notes it only states for inspiration and structure, that is no restriction of what reace you may choose.
If you are talking about rule #8, it doesn't say you may not choose. It only states that creating overpowered characters is a violation. My character is a dragon, blablabla, however he is a big joke when it comes to fighting, he would win against Chief Hattog in a one vs one battle, but if he fights against anything else of his size, then he stands no chance. Chief Hattog himself isn't strong, it is the goblin faction that is "strong", if they co-ordinate good. ))

[[That sounds like an interesting way of doing it and ruins neither of our narratives... cool!]]
Points of Interest Application
P2/22 - Housesteads
Housesteads is a small farming & mercantile town along the West Road road standing at the foot hills of the Forbidden Forest on the River. The town grew out of the need for past Kings to hold a strategic point to defend the South of the River from the North. With regular river traffic to Ospery, the town grew for being a centre for trade and became an important link between the coasts without the need to travel to Vindobona.
(( I've seen some roleplays restricting everyone to the global time, which cause some players to go inactive due to undergoing a longer travel and the time passing by wasn't regular. So I thought about how to solve that problem and then the "Time Bubbles" came to my mind.
I'll add Housesteads, update should occur soon.))
(( Now also some IC-Content from me again. ))
Meanwhile Tynebris decided to go to the lake instead of going to the blacksmith. The dragon is calming flying through the sky, enjoying the minor breezes. Once he reaches the lake his eyes sparkle with amazement, the lake almost looks as marvelous as at night. Tynebris remains in the air flying around the lake. Fenix won't go searching for me here, he knows too well that I won't leave from this place. the dragon thinks while slowly flying down to the border of the lake on the opposite side of Osprey.
There he takes a nap in the shadow of a big tree. Some hours later he is woken up by the sun, but he just yawns and remains curled up on some rock. He slowly opens his eyes, observing the clouds as he suddenly thinks to see a cloud that represents a dragon. Tynebris curiously observes that one cloud and ignores his environment.
-snip-
((I have a question about the map, how many squares are approximately a days travel?))
(( I haven't really thought that out, seeing that I don't want time to interfere with travel times. It should kept reasonable. However, every character somewhat has their own timeline while all timelines run parallel. [Don't get mixed up with parallel universes]. While we roleplay on the same day, your posts can be the morning while mine are noon. That way time won't get in the way of travelling and thus people can interact with everyone. Nevertheless, you can't like say you met Tynebris somewhere and in the next post you met someone in Osprey, that would be too fast. ))
A short time later Fenix arrives at the local blacksmith, but can't find Tynebris. He asks the blacksmith, but neither does he know where the dragon is. "Where is that dragon again" he mumbles to himself. Fenix talks a bit with the blacksmith and then heads back home, angry because of Tynebris' recent behavior. To his suprise he notices the dragon napping in the stable. "One lazy dragon I got as a pet." he says and grins. "Time to work again, he shall sleep when he wants to." he enters the mansion and checks the storage.
Meanwhile the adventurer bought some additional items and asks in a inn about the "Forbidden Forest". He is then clarified by the inn keeper that the forest is no joke and should avoid it. However, the adventurer wants to visit it and eventuelly knows the correct location of it. In an instant he exits the inn and heads towards the "Forbidden Forest."

"Now sleep well and behave, we are somewhat know in the Trader-Guild." Fenix says as he locks the stable.
Afterwards Fenix goes to the inn and has a late dinner before he heads to bed. "This inn didn't change much since my last visit." Fenix mumbles to himself. After eating he heads up to the his room. It can't be true what the messenger reported. I thought it would just be some made up story, but what if it is true? Fenix thought shortly before falling asleep.

Back to my question." the trader says. "I have been there, but how did you know?" the black dragon asks confused. "It's your favorite spot and some days ago some hunters reported a dragon at the lake, which I assume was you." Fenix answers. "Eat up and get ready, in two hours we will fly to Housesteads. We got a delivery to bring to a customer."

(( You could start out returning to homestead or being ambushed by robbers etc. Or you have your character 'timeskip'[check post #12 for a definition on travelling in this roleplay.] to Osprey. Towns are always full of wierd things. ))

(( The application seems okay: the character is accepted.
You can make a faction/subspecies application later on, but while there is no application for it or it is denied then your character will be a normal human. ))

Tynebris fell asleep while observing the cloud and after and hour or two he woke up again. The sun shining onto him, partially blinding his eyes. The dragon yawns. Ah, this is so comfortable, nothing to do but relax. he thinks as he suddenly remembers that when he doesn't come in time home he will have to go hunt for food on his own. Tynebris launches into the rushing back home. I hope I am not late!

(( Pardon? I can't seem to find any note stating you may not choose what race you are. In the notes it only states for inspiration and structure, that is no restriction of what reace you may choose.
If you are talking about rule #8, it doesn't say you may not choose. It only states that creating overpowered characters is a violation. My character is a dragon, blablabla, however he is a big joke when it comes to fighting, he would win against Chief Hattog in a one vs one battle, but if he fights against anything else of his size, then he stands no chance. Chief Hattog himself isn't strong, it is the goblin faction that is "strong", if they co-ordinate good. ))
(( I've seen some roleplays restricting everyone to the global time, which cause some players to go inactive due to undergoing a longer travel and the time passing by wasn't regular. So I thought about how to solve that problem and then the "Time Bubbles" came to my mind.
I'll add Housesteads, update should occur soon.))
(( Now also some IC-Content from me again. ))
Meanwhile Tynebris decided to go to the lake instead of going to the blacksmith. The dragon is calming flying through the sky, enjoying the minor breezes. Once he reaches the lake his eyes sparkle with amazement, the lake almost looks as marvelous as at night. Tynebris remains in the air flying around the lake. Fenix won't go searching for me here, he knows too well that I won't leave from this place. the dragon thinks while slowly flying down to the border of the lake on the opposite side of Osprey.
There he takes a nap in the shadow of a big tree. Some hours later he is woken up by the sun, but he just yawns and remains curled up on some rock. He slowly opens his eyes, observing the clouds as he suddenly thinks to see a cloud that represents a dragon. Tynebris curiously observes that one cloud and ignores his environment.

(( I haven't really thought that out, seeing that I don't want time to interfere with travel times. It should kept reasonable. However, every character somewhat has their own timeline while all timelines run parallel. [Don't get mixed up with parallel universes]. While we roleplay on the same day, your posts can be the morning while mine are noon. That way time won't get in the way of travelling and thus people can interact with everyone. Nevertheless, you can't like say you met Tynebris somewhere and in the next post you met someone in Osprey, that would be too fast. ))

Meanwhile the adventurer bought some additional items and asks in a inn about the "Forbidden Forest". He is then clarified by the inn keeper that the forest is no joke and should avoid it. However, the adventurer wants to visit it and eventuelly knows the correct location of it. In an instant he exits the inn and heads towards the "Forbidden Forest."
