Greal and I had a thought on an RP. Think a bit of Future Tech mixed with Fantasy Tech. Future is provided only for those species that can't use natural abilities or fantasy tech.

War has broken out on Aurora, a planet overgrown with forest and with few small oceans in between. There are mountains to the north and some plains to the south leading into tropics with rain forests. Humans have been growing, intending to spread out and populate the planet with their growing population. Unfortunately, they weren't the only species in the area. With the territory of others all pressing in, nobody has any wiggle room and the spark for a territorial war has begun. Humans on the planet have been losing from the start, but they hope to soon turn that around. Meanwhile, the other species hope to dig in and claim this planet as their own, without the interference of others. The largest of the controlled areas belong to the humans, but their control has been shrinking steadily so far.
Until the clamor for land, the species have been coexisting somewhat peacefully. They didn't necessarily get along, but they didn't always have reason for war so long as they had what they needed to get by. With the war raging on, it's doubtful that everyone will come out of here with enough land for their population or more than a few remnants for a population. Yes, there will be some that thrive, but this is about a lust for land, and getting as much as one species can.

Any species is welcome to join in so long as we can find information on it. If it is of your own creation, please include a few details about it that set them apart from others.

We're looking at something medium sized, so a few groups of warriors/soldiers for each species duking it out is the general idea.

Here's the information we need. Please limit your technologies and powers to avoid god-modding. Ie. Don't screw everyone else over. If someone has a complaint about someone else's tech/powers, we'll deal with it.

Species so far...
Sylvonia: Elves
Greal: Vampires
North Calaveras: Locust
Beatus: Muck Dwellers
Lynion: Fungi
Technonaut: Technonauts
DaWoad: Humans
Siloin: Werewolves (pending)

future tech as in? no ships but near future, railguns, lasers etc?

Think minimal space activity to keep things fair, but lasers may not be out of the question.

Quick question, so, if the FT, is to counter the fantasy abilities, could/would the races that have fantasy abilities, poses limited MT?

what about the Locust from gears of war?

As long as it doesn't override the fantasy part, sure.

what about the Locust from gears of war?

Yes, go for it.

And for the record, I've called Elves while Greal wanted Vampires.

Race: Locust Underground

Short bio on the species: The locust came to this planet on ships. They have since created a underground base that appears primitive with stone walls.(you know what it looks like if you played GW2)

By name for "Head of state" I meant a person's name and the appearance under that is what said being looks like, but I can see how I wasn't very clear. Otherwise, all looks good.

One question though, you only want the one general to control all groups you have?

Sylvonia could i have Brumacks those big creatures with guns on them and the flying creatures?

One question though, you only want the one general to control all groups you have?

well you said were going with a couple groups right?(how many is that really? personal wise?)

Do you mean to use the creatures as weapons basically? If so and with the Locusts controlling them, I suppose so.

Probably 4 groups, no more than 50 in each group. I suppose it is your choice.

well have you played GW2? im basically using there tech.

I've never even touched a disc for it. I can do a bit of research though.

kk and im only using 1 Brumak for each group.

That would work then.

well have you played GW2? im basically using there tech.

it the same tech as the first one with new toy add

Race: Elves
Head of State's Name: King Llanowar
Appearance: Human like, pale skin, that never darkens, pointed ears, red, blue, or green eyes, blond or red hair, complete lack of body/facial hair.
Names of group leaders: I don't quite understand what your looking for, would this not be like head of state?
General appearances: Again, how does this differ from Appearances above?
Powers your species may posses: Extremely Long lifespan, extremely low birthrate, ability to use magic, generally stronger, faster, and more intelligent than humans.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: rudimentary MT, such as titanium crossbows/bows, use of synthetic fibers Kevlar etc., computers and electronics based around magic, extensive knowledge of natural sciences, and agricultural sciences, have knowledge of FT I.E. they know how Future Technologies things work, but choose not to implement them, as they find many of them childish, and short sighted.
Short bio on the species: The elves generally keep to the forests, and keep to themselves, find humans tedious to talk to, and rather dimwitted, but will, if the need arises, in tune with nature, and tend to the forests, as if it were their children.

it the same tech as the first one with new toy add

I'll be alright with this so long as you're willing to have them be either a faction that split off from my group or a subset that listens to my rulers. Sorry, but I did say earlier that I was using elves.
And for the record, I've called Elves while Greal wanted Vampires.



Imperial Isa, I figured as much, but I thought I would take the opportunity to make a point.

Sorry, missed the questions.
You are not controlling one group that may attack or be attacked, unless you want to of course. I'm predicting a majority of us will use more than one group of warriors. The first appearance is for your king while the next is what your generals will look like. I don't need a lot of detail, just enough so we get a picture of them.
And with a little more reading, it looks like your elves are more of a split faction than a subgroup to mine.

Alright then, your decision.

Alright, here's my info. Greal will probably churn his out after school or something.

Race: Elves
Head of State's Name: Queen Ti'Lin
Appearance: Tall, even for an elf, though a little wider than normal too. Usually in simple robes or ornate armor.
Names of group leaders: Ta'Nier, Ta'Groe, Ta'Rah, and Ta'Vieu
General appearances: They prefer a traditional styled leather armor, but with bronze plates on the chest, forearms, and shins.
Powers your species may posses: Magic correlating to their subspecies, abnormally long lifespan for a mortal being, stronger (though more brittle) than a human as well as faster and relatively intelligent
Tech you wish to claim for your species: As with most fantasy geared species, modern tech mixed with their traditions.
Short bio on the species: They've grudgingly accepted modern technology as a necessity if they hope to win, or at least not loose, though they are deeply steeped in their traditions. Though preferring to keep to themselves, they want some growing room like everyone else. They find most other species to have the mentality of a child, but they do recognize the occasional exception within those groups. They are in tune with all forms of nature, but sub species are better with their own element (Water, Earth, Fire, and Air respective to my group leaders). They try their best to keep their traditions strong, but are not afraid to use modern technology to augment their strength if the need arises. Each subspecies usually keeps to their own tribe. Occasionally wanderers will band together and work together to survive, but they don't interact much. With everyone pushing for more territory, they saw a need to cooperate for if they could get more land for everyone, they could be further apart and everyone would have more room to roam.

Race: Murk Dwellers
Head of State's Name: Emperor Tursh Hjreshsson
Appearance of HoS: Red eyes, scar on his left cheek, thin, around 5'6"

Colonel Kjurk: Green eyes, athletic, 5'4"
Colonel Uhjer: Blue eyes, extremely muscular, 5'5"
Colonel Njuor: Red eyes, skinny, 5'0"
Powers your species may posses: Excellent night vision, sensitivity to bright lights, daylight, enhanced sense of smell, hearing, longer "natural" lifespan than humans, some live to be over 200, stronger than humans, excellent excavators, some are spellcasters (can use magic, is genetic, based one two genes, not one, thus meaning, that while most if not all of the race, poses at least on of the genes, it requires both.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: MT / fantasy
Image of Race:
http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/3980/murkdwellerszq0.png
Short bio on the species: The Murk Dwellers, are one of the oldest races on (insert planet name here). They have lived deep beneath the ground, mainly under mountains, but sometimes under other areas, eating whatever lives, or grows in their tunnels, including rats, mice, mushrooms, fungi, etc.. They are proud warriors, and have been known to fight amongst each other. Have distrust of those who reside primarily above ground.

If you wish more info, specify what, and I will provide it.

Tech you wish to claim for your species: Fantasy/Late MT

Short bio on the species:

The Fungi are a violent military race that was put down by the Vamperial Empire of Lynion (FT) during the Third Fungi War. The minator's were the original Fungi but during the 3 Fungi Wars, they were forced to mutate spieces (mentioned above) to help them do their bidding. The huntsman spider is mutated to a height of 18 foot tall (max) and acts as a transport for Minator's, siege weapon or as a tank. Dragons mutated to a height of 17 foot and is deisgned for aerial combat as well as acting as air support. Mutated Wedge-Tail eagles grow to around 14 foot and were used as disrupting supply convoy's and reinforcements. They can pick up most things off the ground but are later forced to drop them due to the weight or they can think of a use for them. The mutated Sea Serpent acts as the Fungi water units when they required to disrupt supply convoy's and transport convoy's. Sea Serpents hunt in large packs longside giant squids which acts as a distraction to the convoy while the serpents bring down enemy warships.

Tech you wish to claim for your species: FT, http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=579332 and a few others select techs.

Short bio on the species: A hybrid of an ancient species and its machines in the Triangulum Galaxy over 2,000 Years ago, they have been converting all contacted species into the pure and ridding the galaxy(ies) of filth.
They have steadily grown stronger as they have assimilated and now they have turn their sights on (this planet).

A lot of this (*cough* adaptive shields *cough*) sounds pretty powerful. Just watch a few things that could border on godmodding eventually and you'll be alright. Also, you say "a few others select techs." Can you be a bit more specific? If you have nothing to add right now, just ask before you do too much with them.

And a general warning to anyone who bases themselves from space, go easy on the massive destruction from above. Not all of us can get out there.

Sounds alright. Just remember that there isn't much in the way of large bodies of water on Aurora.

Another note is that if Greal says something contrary to me, we'll discuss it and post a compromise.

1. Borg cube and really miscellaneous general tech(for example Dune personnel shields (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holtzman_effect#Holtzman_shield)(with my own twist), Metroid laser/plasma guns and armor, and I'll make sure to telegram you and Greal before I debute anything overdone and/or outline anything special in the first post)(afraid I haven't had time to really flesh out the Technonauts as much as I'd like so there abilities/weaknesses are still up in the air)
2. The main sphere isn't going to stay in orbit for every long so don't have to worry about me.(I'm thinking a virus causes it to crash but haven't fully fleshed out the idea yet)

Alright then.

Sylvonia i will have no ships, im sticking to ground combat.

As you wish. What you want for your race is up to you guys.

When's the IC thread coming?

We're working on it. Hopefully within a couple days at the most.

OOC: still open? if so I'd like to join
Race: Human (Woad Raiders, A Special Forces branch of the Allied Systems of Dawoad Space Fleet)
Head of State's Name: Jarek Mace (ASD Appointed Ambassador. Blue knight of the ASD)
Appearance of HoS: mid 50s, Greying hair brown eyes. Generally unremarkable. Likes to wear a red shirt
Names of group leaders:Admiral Owain Hawk(Naval and Overall CIC), Commandant Carson Lewis(Marine CIC), Colonel Vierge Norris(Army CIC), Flight-Leader Strife Webb(Airforce CIC), Professor Bold (Medical chief of staff and chief Science officer)
General appearances of above leaders: All are in their thirties again Baseline Human more description will be IC.

Powers your species may posses: None- essentially normal Baseline Human

Tech you wish to claim for your species: FT

Mobile Armor - Large combat suites that are essentially small MECHs. Armed with heavy armor and light Deflector shields for anti-laser defenses. Point defense chain guns are mounted at certain points in the armor. Offensive weapon include a single back mounted UAV, and interchangeable shoulder and arm-mounted weapons. (Raiders only)

Heavy Tank- "Bolo class" A massive Tank. Outfitted with medium strength deflector shields as well as point defenses, VLS systems, a Heavy Coil Gun and theater defense ABM systems. As well as shorter range Cannon and miniguns. (Army Only)

Powered Armor- A standard combat suite. Built in HUD, reactive armor and an emergency jump system are all built into this system. (Airforce, Navy)

Heavy Armor- Similar to the Mobile suite but without shield and point defense. This system gives the wearer more armor and the ability to carry slightly heavier weapons than powered armor. (Army Only)

Pinance:A space Capable ship. Designed primarily as a transport it has laser point defenses and a single primary Laser which acts as it primary attack weapon. It can outpace any pure Air-breathing Fighter with ease. (Navy Only)

ACS- The Air Combat Ship is an atmospheric Strike Fighter designed as both an Air-superiority and close support platform. Armed with auto Cannons, and a pair of Small lasers as well as this Ship had the capability to carry both standoff weapons and bombs in a single "bomb bay". (airforce)

AI- Limited AI's are integral to ever Piece of equipment including powered armor. Two self Sufficient AI-s are present at Hardhold, the original crash site.

Micro-Factories- Two survived the Ships crash and have been used to make a pair more, giving the ASD'ians the ability to create most of everything they need but without resources they are incapable of functioning.

Battle Blades: Primarily a ceremonial weapon, every Member of the Woadraiders is highly trained in bladed and unarmed combat. This was a discipline exercise until the Creation of single molecular edged blades. These can cut through practically anything and have become useful again but their limited range make them useless on conventional battlefields. In recent history only two Woadraiders have gotten confirmed Battle Blade kills both in cases where the marines had run out of ammunition completely. One Marine died shortly after of massive wounds though the other, Admiral Hawk (then Sargent Hawk), survived proving the weapons more than just props.

Short bio on the species: One of ten Battlecruisers sent to explore the galaxy after the ASD decided to end its long exile, the ASDSS "Farstrider" discovered this planet relatively quickly. Unfortunately a technical malfunction ended with the Battlecruiser crashing, VERY hard, into the planet. During this time the members of the ship had gone into Stasis, in order to better survive the landing and an unknown period of time later emerged onto this world. The First order of business was to attempt a repair of the ship but that proved impossible without resources available elsewhere so, after warming up their dogs of war, The ASDSF personnel Set up a military base around the Battlcruiser's Remains and are about to begin an attempted expansion out of the mountains. The ships are essentially the best of the best available to the ASDSF. The ASDSF have good tech but they are somewhat lacking in personnel as despite their advanced tech, they have a low population base to work off and no civilian back-up. Certain codes of military justice have been suspended surrounding relationships within the military but none the less the birth rate is essentially Zero for the time being.

Still Open?


Race: Werewolf

Head of State's Name: Enrich Von Brandenburg

Appearance of HoS: 30s, tall, hairy, black hair. In wolf form, similar to all others.

Names of group leaders: Pack Leader Adolf Kasmir, Clan President Lucas Oben

General appearances of above leaders: Tall, 30s to 40s, hairy, both with brown hair. Wolf form similar to all others.

Powers your species may posses: Ability to transform into wolves at will, enhanced senses of smell and enhanced hearing, when in wolf form immune to anything except holy water and silver.

Tech you wish to claim for your species: Fantasy/PMT

Short bio on the species: After being cast out from their original homeland because of their werewolf condition, the race wandered for hundreds of years before reaching their idealic area. Rather barbaric, the race is still split with internal fights. They keep to the woods and mountains during the day, but come out and hunt at night. They are known to use modern and fantasy weapons in combat. The average man is scared of fire.

@DaWoad: Approved.

@Siloin: Good, but the wolf form seems nearly invulnerable. I hate to burst your bubble, but if one gets set on fire or hit with rockets, it will have to hurt. They can be exceptionally strong, but that's overkill.

@DaWoad: Approved.

Hopefully soon. We're still hammering out an OP.

Hopefully soon. We're still hammering out an OP.

Sweeet. And yah that OP is gonna be tough good luck to you :D. (maybe set it as a post Diaspora planet original colonized from earth? weird mutations caused by higher than earth norm background rad. Caused massive numbers of really cool species to form or something? lol I got notin.

It's currently bring a brat and not letting me type up anything good right now, so, ya. And we've already got a location picked out, Aurora. In the OP of this thread, I gave a rough description of the northern hemisphere. I say northern because it doesn't fit for anything past the equator.
A planet overgrown with forest and with few small oceans in between. There are mountains to the north and some plains to the south leading into tropics with rain forests.

sounds bout right to me :D any thoughts on drawing up a map? I'd offer too but my artistic skills are. . .*cough* lacking

It's been tempting, but if you say your artistic skills are lacking, mine are whatever is below nonexistent.

The locust are coming ^^

Right then... I'll let the townsfolk know to board up their windows and doors.

were talking hardcore bloodthirsty drones with lancer rifles ripping through anyone.

I'm aware of that. I'm just half asleep and don't feel like trying to fend them off when I can simply say "begone!" and make it happen. :p

so....ya....^^

Lol, ya...

Well, I'm going to put off tackling my writer's block and see you fruits tomorrow morning. Or later this morning as it's 12:12 AM here...

It's been tempting, but if you say your artistic skills are lacking, mine are whatever is below nonexistent.

lol when I said lacking . . .nonexistent is probably actually an improvement for me. stick figures are about my metier.

@DaWoad: Approved.

If they get blown up, they dead. If they are flamed, their dead. If they get repeatedly machineguned, they are dead.

Sounds pretty sweet Syl, I wouldn't mind doing this, now I'm pretty much out of all other threads I was involved with.

Race: Evolved Humans
Head of State's Name: Colonel Edwin Mace
Appearance of HoS: White hair, blue eyes, 6'6 tall. Wears a tan coat and a matching tan military hat, and sometimes sunglasses too. Inspired by this (http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/0f/Constantine_Chase_closeup.jpg)
Names of group leaders: Captain Donovan Atrius, Lieutenant Sarah Falkner, Scribe Cyrus Tyranis
General appearances of above leaders:
In General: Human in appearance, In every way, shape and form. Powers Are purely mental.
Donovan: 7'2, brown hair & eyes. Wears standard jumpsuit or olive drab paramilitary body armour and clothing, and a beret denoting his rank.
Sarah: 6'4, brown hair, green eyes. Wears standard jumpsuit or olive drab paramilitary body armour and clothing, and a beret denoting her rank.
Cyrus: 6'3, bald, one green, eye one blue eye. Wears a lab coat. Non-combatant, but still a leading member of the group.

Powers your species may posses: See bio.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: Projectile weapons (eg. Machine guns) prevalent, but laser/plasma/gauss weapons exist. Vehicles are either walkers (http://matrix.wikia.com/wiki/APU) or hover-vehicles. Essentially, FT, but not entirely. Semi-FT, if you like.

Short bio on the species: Evolved Humans are essentially humans, but they have been granted powers that makes them superiour to humans. They display a variety of powers, from telepathy (http://heroeswiki.com/Telepathy), telekinesis (http://heroeswiki.com/Telekinesis), pyro (http://heroeswiki.com/Pyrokinesis) and cryokinesis (http://heroeswiki.com/Ice). Some also display rapid cellular regeneration (http://heroeswiki.com/Regeneration) and invisibilty (http://heroeswiki.com/Invisibility), though these have become rare traits. They no longer live in the same areas as Humans, after many idealogical battles and prejudices were aired, they cast themselves out of human settlements and formed their own.

A Note On Powers: Since I think I should say this; Rapid Cellular Regeneration is what it says - rapid cell regeneration. It is not the same as invincibilty. A bullet to the brain is still a bullet to the brain, and will kill an EH just as simply as any human, even if they can regenerate from moderate wounds. As you may have guessed, i'm a big Heroes fan.

IC thread hopefully starting sometime this weekend. ;)

If they get blown up, they dead. If they are flamed, their dead. If they get repeatedly machineguned, they are dead.

Donovan: 7'2, brown hair & eyes. Wears standard jumpsuit or olive drab paramilitary body armour and clothing, and a beret denoting his rank.
Sarah: 6'4, brown hair, green eyes. Wears standard jumpsuit or olive drab paramilitary body armour and clothing, and a beret denoting her rank.
Cyrus: 6'3, bald, one green, eye one blue eye. Wears a lab coat. Non-combatant, but still a leading member of the group.

Powers your species may posses: See bio.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: Projectile weapons (eg. Machine guns) prevalent, but laser/plasma/gauss weapons exist. Vehicles are either walkers (http://matrix.wikia.com/wiki/APU) or hover-vehicles. Essentially, FT, but not entirely. Semi-FT, if you like.

Short bio on the species: Evolved Humans are essentially humans, but they have been granted powers that makes them superiour to humans. They display a variety of powers, from telepathy (http://heroeswiki.com/Telepathy), telekinesis (http://heroeswiki.com/Telekinesis), pyro (http://heroeswiki.com/Pyrokinesis) and cryokinesis (http://heroeswiki.com/Ice). Some also display rapid cellular regeneration (http://heroeswiki.com/Regeneration) and invisibilty (http://heroeswiki.com/Invisibility), though these have become rare traits. They no longer live in the same areas as Humans, after many idealogical battles and prejudices were aired, they cast themselves out of human settlements and formed their own.

A Note On Powers: Since I think I should say this; Rapid Cellular Regeneration is what it says - rapid cell regeneration. It is not the same as invincibilty. A bullet to the brain is still a bullet to the brain, and will kill an EH just as simply as any human, even if they can regenerate from moderate wounds. As you may have guessed, i'm a big Heroes fan.
I say we're good here.

IC thread hopefully starting sometime this weekend. ;)
Late this weekend unless you finish an OP before I can get back and finish mine.

Race: Kitsune (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitsune)
Head of State's Name: Hiroki Danshita
Appearance of HoS: Sort of a fox-human hybrid, garbed in traditional Japanese kimono
Names of group leaders: Ziyoshiyua Ashida, Kenkon Uchida, Hawado Akisama
General appearances of above leaders: Same as head of state
Powers your species may posses: Shapeshifting (limited to fox and human), possessing others (own body becomes vulnerable while possessing others), invisibility
Tech you wish to claim for your species: MT/Early PMT
Short bio on the species:

Kitsune are similar to humans in thought and philosophy, but their physical form is reminiscent of the days when they descended from foxes. A native species of the planet, they tend not to fight directly, prefering to fight when unseen or disguised.

This still open? If so
Race: The Kraknov
Head of State's Name: The Council of Elders
Appearance of HoS: A council of psykers with small underdeveloped bodies, and large heads
Names of group leaders: They're just called the elders
General appearances of above leaders: Small underdeveloped bodies with big heads
Powers your species may posses: Genetic Mutations and cybernetic implants
Tech you wish to claim for your species: Stogg like tech
Short bio on the species:
The kraknov once lived on a verdant green world. However a demonic invasion and subsequent nuclear war reduced most of it to a barren wasteland. The race now becomes desperate as it's food sources are rapidly depleting. However, the discovery of portal technology to this green world has tempted them into invading it. Though most are horribly mutated, they all share the same humanoid appearance with claws on hands and feet, and two lines of spikes going from the forehead, and over the head to the back of the neck.
Types:
Unmutated, have pale skin and lack mutations, wield dual swords or rifles
Snipers, have mechanical eyes to assist in sniping, very weak
Mindless, mutation has driven their intelligence to a point where they are little more than animals, look like unmutated, however, with pink skin and hunched over
Cyborg, an unmutated with mechanical limbs and part of the torso
Four arms, four armed mutants with partially chitinous skin
Behemoths, huge mutants that act as tanks and carry explosive weapons
Cyber Elite, cyborgs covered with steel armor, have claw weapons
Reapers, elite killers that wield sycths and pistols, work as elite for the council
Psykers, the leaders of the race, extremely weak and malformed, but have psychic powers

Both applications seem fine.

is there an ic post up?

Yeah, where IC?

Yeah, where IC?

Yes, the weekend has come, and gone, and will soon come again, and yet I see no IC. :(

Race: Stalians
Head of State's Name: Stellar Communist Party Council
Appearance of HoS: This (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/85/Communist_Mutants_from_Space_cover.jpg/250px-Communist_Mutants_from_Space_cover.jpg)

Names of group leaders: General Heinmanner, Field-commissar Lerhim
General appearances of above leaders: Steel-faced humanoids with commie uniforms. They have medals of their former planetary revolutions while the heads of state don't.
Powers your species may posses: Persuade the underclasses to revolt, shoot at traitors and cowards. Epic snipers.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: Post Modern Tech
Short bio on the species: Little is known about the mysterious steel men that came from the stars. In many ways, they seem to have been created as automatons by human hands for a long forgotten goal rather than by a greater clockwork of events, and yet they are completely sentient, despite their complete uniformity and lack of irrational desires. They were sighted to treat humans with dignity, but other species with no regards at all, and at some situations even clearly demonstrating a nearly genocidal hostility in their communications towards non-humans.

Race: Dremora [Cookie for Oblivion Fans]

Head of State's Name: Lord K'Thrall

Appearance of HoS: Stands roughly 8 feet tall, muscular, but not overly so. White skin, unlike all others of his race. Deep red eyes, bald, with horns on his head. Glowing orange, tattoo-like inscriptions all over his body, when not covered by his white and gold plate armor.

Names of group leaders: Short of a war council, there are just ranks of Dremora that command others in the field

General appearances of above leaders: Generally like foot soldiers, to avoid standing out.

Powers your species may posses: Relatively strong magic, at the cost of having only bows, swords, and the like as physical weaponry [is that ok?]

Tech you wish to claim for your species: None really...

Short bio on the species: The Dremora populated Aurora through a series of large, imposing gates that opened around the planet, from which they flooded out. They quickly gathered in the Northeastern area of the large continent, killing anything that came into their territory. They are not good friends with any race, however, the elves (a perverted version of which Dremora stemmed) are the reason the Dremora came to this planet. They wear rune-etched armor (http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r70/Nordic_IceMan/Dremora.jpg) and wield deadly-looking medieval weapons.

Yes, the weekend has come, and gone, and will soon come again, and yet I see no IC. :(

Greal said he'd been ill on the AMNAT forums, so cut him some slack guys.

aw that sucks.

I apologize guys. I would have put up an IC thread if it wasn't for the flu. :(

Something in the next seven days. Waiting for Sylvonia to say something.

Is this still open? If so:

Race: Coboli
Head of State's Name: King-Slamander Goled
Appearance of HoS: Slightly larger than most Coboli with a mane and beard of violet hair. Wears cobalt mail and red mantle. He has one eye missing and a flame-shaped patch of iridescent scales on his forehead.
Names of group leaders: Marshal-Salamander Bortred, Marshal-Serpent Findel, Marshal-Unicorn Hodek
General appearances of above leaders:
Bortred: Stocky and muscular. he wears Cobalt plate armour and a red cloak. He has grey-blue hair in a topknot and uses a two-handed axe. He has a flame-shaped scale patch on his forehead.
Findel: Slim and lightly built. Has plaited white hair and beard. One eye is missing. he wears green robes and has a gem-topped staff. He has a teardrop shaped green scale patch on his forehead.
Hodek: Broad-shouldered and tall(ish). Bald but with a silvery beard. He wears a black breatplate and silver tabbard and uses an ornate sword carved from horn. he has a unicorn-style horn protruding from his head.
powers your species may possess: Very long-lived and hardy. They have an uncanny ability to mimic handwriting etc. and have very keen senses. Some (mostly Serpent caste but some others) can use magic.
Tech you wish to claim for your species: MT with some PT elements and a special kind of weapon called a Slemender which fires a "beam" of extreme heat.
Short bio on the species: The Coboli are about half the height of a human being and similar in appearance, except for their strange hair colours, sharp teeth, tufted tails, caste marks (on forehead) and large feline eyes. They can make and use fairly efficient automatic weaponry (generally assault rifles etc.) but prefer close combat. For protection they are pretty much limited to traditional armour styles but make them very well from a special form of cobalt. They also employ a small number of Grobrach, a much larger (1.5 times the size of a human) and stronger "subspecies". They wear plate armour and only use (very well made but visually unremarkable) hammers. They have a human appearance but with no hair, eyebrows etc, pointed ears, large noses and small dark eyes. Each group has about 10-20 of these.

Oh my. And this is what happens when writer's block sets in and my computer decides to have issues. I haven't used a mouse in nearly a week. :(

I've finished the IC thread and I'll have it up in a bit. I don't see any problems, maybe Greal does. If so, he can pick them out.

And here it is: http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=583552

Is mine OK? Shall I jump in?

Like I said, I don't see any problems. Go ahead.
