Some things can not be hidden, even in darkness.
In Licifite, there has been a world order for several thousand years, ruled and held together by one self aclaimed Priest of a King, a political animal, a heroic conqueror, and the entity through which the gods live with the people. The lush lands supply each other with what the others lack, every man gives into what he wants, as there is plenty of everything, and nothing is amiss.
Save one small hidden group. These men and woman are a sect that believes in the 'old ways', that there is a right and wrong, and that not everything you see is how it is to be precieved. Scattered and divided, and without a single leader that is to come, priests and heralds shepard small groups across the map, teaching and giving to their sheep, always waiting for their leader. They train militarily as an army, and are assigned regimes, ready to strike if the government finds their sources, or kills their High Priest. And for a time, they remained this way, no one knowing who they really are, just civilians. They are soothed by the Prophets of different specifications and events to look forward to. But they have become fixed on a warrior king...
Untill, about ten years before, the Prophets were murdered, all at one time, and many disapeared. For about a year, there was a secret war among the Havenites, this underground group, over who would take doctrinal power after their divine connections were gone between the Creator and their world. This was all covered up as a world wide gang war that the Licifites had finished, and their cover was saved, by ignorance or by fate.
Durring this period, the young were taught a perverted version of their writings and prophecy, and thus hope was lost in many ways, but strength was gained. But those who remembered...
Like the basis so far? Need as many people as possible. Give me;
A Blacksmith
A Herald (Sage)
A Military Leader/Trainer
This is based in a mock-middle age setting, but black magic is common, and just as common as Heraldry, the use of the Creator's power for good. Heraldry is determined by knowladge of Scripture, Black Magic on skill. At this point, no need for baddies, but there will be a point where I will tell you. All people that are Licifites recieved basic training, but the Havenites have recieved much more disciplined. If you let it slip you're a Havenite, you're good as dead, if not tortured first for information; it's outlawed, and framed for many crimes not commited by the sociaty.
So, without further ado, thanks, people!
Note 1: Other races are fine, but I'd like it if people were a little more out there, like Centours and Imps, rather than just plain Elves and Dwarves. And if you want to create a race, go ahead.
Note 2: Its pernounced Li-si-fight
