  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Okay, I'm starting an RPG with my CF character. I'll be starting it on my own, and if anyone wants to join, they can, and if not, I will always be able to post. :p

I don't have a plot hammered out right now, but here is the groundwork:

Nalmros was a peaceful land, until the Terror Mist crept in from the sea, blinding all it caught in its grip and ultimately destroying the realm as it was known then. No one really knows the nature of that Mist, save the three Dragons, from whom nothing has been heard since. This Mist hung thick on Nalmros for six years, and in that time wverything changed. From the Texts of History:

"And from that Mist emerged all manner of fell things; shadow-dogs with eyes like flame, hideous beasts that were like stones by day and flesh by night, souls of men that once were alive, nameless things that defy description... and they came among men and wrought upon them such chaos and fear... that every hand seemed raised against his brother, and not by land nor by sea was any safety to be found... "

As suddenly as it had come, the Mist vanished. Nalmros no longer lived. Its cities stand in ruins to this day, home to those fell things of which the Texts speak. Only scattered pockets of humanity survive in the wild countryside.

This talle begins one hundred years later...

...

I'll have rules up later. If you're interested now, go ahead and post your request to join.


CHARACTERS

You are allowed 3 characters, max. Your first and primary character should be the one standing next to your username in your posts. If you do not have a CF Character, either make one OR post a new character on the Characters board. You do not need to post a bio for a CF Character, but you DO need to profile any secondary characters.

The name of your primary character should be derived from the letters of your username. My character's name will be Tuan. If you must bend this rule slightly, that is fine.

All primary characters are human. With the exception of Tuan, no special powers will be granted to human characters except during the course of the story.

SETTING

The people of Nalmros are scattered throughout the countryside, living in what shellter they have managed to build in the past century. The country is a beautiful one, covered in forests and high mountains. Several great cities dot the landscape, but all lay desolate and shrouded in mist...

NON-HUMAN CREATURES

No Tolkienesque creatures live in Nalmros. Only three Dragons exist, and they have not been seen among men since the Mist. However, plenty of evil walks abroad, especially in and around the cities. Look into Norse and British mythology to get the idea. Gargoyles, black dogs, ghosts, etc.

The forests, though, are generally peaceful for now...

RULES[/B}

You know the drill. Follow all CF/RPG rules.

I'm not a fan of one-liners, and will come down hard on anyone who uses them to excess. One paragraph, 4-6 sentences, is the least I would prefer. Doesn't mean the occasional one--liner will stir me to wrath, but keep it occasional.

This story is about Tuan. Remember that, but don't let that stop you from forming subplots. Unpredictability is the life of RPing.

Post.

And love it.

This is a CF Characters thread, so you'd have to use the character standing by your username first you can change its clothing to suit). But after that, you're allowed two regular chhars.

In short, you can play with Maia if you also play with your CF Character.

does that make sense to you? I'm sticking to my rules, but i am CERTAINLY not saying you can't join. In fact, if you do, you're quite welcome.

grrr the problem is that I can't write with HER! All I can see is... a lady. and I can't see writing a lady here without sinking into the same-old repetitive character that every other girl used when LOTR first came out.... or something like that... *sigh* All right. Thank you. :)
