Dragon Hunters RP

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A figure stood at the base of the mountain, his brown cloak blowing in the wind. The creases on his face showed signs of aging, but the man was still very strong. His brow sat low above his eyes, and he seemed as if he was watching something on the mountain very closely. 

Then the man began to climb. It wasn't long until the man reached the peak of the mountain. He drew something out of his cloak, thrusting it into the air. Seven pieces of paper fluttered in the wind, drifting down, heading for the village below.

Èolith trudged along the cobblestone path leading through the village. She pulled her coat tighter around her body as the snow began to fall. Suddenly, she noticed something blow by her face. Èolith snatched the piece of parchment from the chilly air. 

Child,

The north is calling. We must arise once again. The strong. The fearless. The warriors. The hunters and the huntresses. The seekers. The wanderers. The ones who will make up our small party. Come, join us. Find your journey. Come to the top of Fuar Peak. Gather with us. We will be strong once again. 

Arlerac, Huntsman of the North. 

Èolith gasped. There was a small symbol beside the signature. The mark of the Dragon Hunters. She could only imagine what this meant. 

Many years ago, the legendary Dragon Hunters had braved the snowy mountains of north Daklur. Some thought that while up there, the hunters and huntresses fought and stayed dragons, protecting the village below. Others claimed that these men and women tamed the dragons, creating an alliance. Only a true Dragon Hunter knew. These people were both admired and feared.  And becoming one was only for the strong willed and not for the weak of heart. A few years ago, however, the Dragon Hunters were banned from the village, and one by one, they began to disappear, until they became just a myth. When the Dragon Hunters were gone, the dragons began to slowly close in on the village, expanding their territory farther and farther down the mountains, until it wasn't even safe to be beyond the forest at the base of Fuar Peak after sundown. 

However, there was once a prophecy that a time like this would come. And it was only the rise of a bigger evil. It was said that seven would be chosen. Seven children. They would be the next generation of Dragon Hunters. 

Èolith had always loved hearing legends and stories of the Dragon Hunters. She had dreamed of becoming one herself. So when she read this piece of paper, there was no question that she would go to Fuar Peak. Èolith ran all the way home, forgetting about the cold, her head filled with wonderings about what the other six would be like.

If you've read this far, great job! As you probably guessed, this is an RP. I hope that the snippets I posted were self explanatory. 

-Be kind and respectful, always (this one is kinda obvious). 

-No OP charries. 

-I will accept 7-10 charries, that's it. Six of these will be the next generation of Dragon Hunters and Huntresses, and I'll allow some older dragon hunters such as Arlerac. I'm going to start with a one charrie per person limit, but if not enough people join, then maybe I'll allow extras. 

-Try and develop your charries. Really try. If you write a one sentence personality, I might not accept your charrie. 

-Password: Dragontooth

Here's the charrie sheet:

Name: (Please make it a fantasy-sounding name like Arlerac and Èolith)

Age: (The young dragon hunters are 12-15 and the older dragon hunters are 40s and 50s)

Gender: 

Appearance: 

Personality:

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Background:

Password:

Other:

I'll post Èolith's when this pops up. We'll start when enough people join.

We do have a few more spots, so you can certainly join! Unfortunately, all the Huntresses in Training spots are taken. Would you mind making your charrie a bit older? 20s or 30s? She could be a Dragon Hunter, but one of the younger ones...?

Bard is a class of player character that makes magic with music, could fill the role of a rogue (stereotypical thief character) or a sorcerer (arcane magician, like wizards but weirder) in a pinch. Copper dragons are dragons which, if I remember correctly, live in deserts, spit acid venom instead of fire as a breath weapon, and can be very mischievous but are generally good-aligned. I have no idea what they have to do with each other - which version of D&D are you going off of, Waffleson?

Whoops, I meant to stick this on the earlier thread about D&D-like dragons. I could've sworn I did...

In the D & D V5 Monster Manual, on the copper dragon pages it says that Copper dragons are mischevious, and enjoy pranks and jokes, making them espesially fond of Bards. It also says that for a Copper Dragon, having a Bard is a boasting point and they find their company rare, but an amazing gist. Sometimes Copper Dragons will even go so far as to keep one as a sort of pet. I play v5, so that's the D & D I'm going off of.

Kilp says chav

chav sounds kinda like chive. Do you like onions, Kilp?

V5 rocks. So much better than v4, in my opinion. And that being in the Monster Manual explains a lot, as I've only ever seen the Player's Handbook and DM's material from the Red Box (only it's not actually red this edition, ha ha). That...makes a lot of sense about copper dragons and bards, actually. Aria's a bard of sorts, although she's a bit too no-nonsense to really enjoy a D&D copper dragon's company.

Can you guys please explain the plan?

The plan? Like for the storyline?

submitted by Leeli
(August 29, 2017 - 8:33 pm)

Yeah. It seems that everyone is talking about dragons and skyrim and a lot of other things I can't understand.

Same! I really don't understand Skyrim or D&D, and though I appreciate trying to explain it to me, I'd kinda rather this RP be it's own thing. 

So I think we're gonna start when The Seven get to Fuar Peak and meet our NPC Dragon Hunter who will take them to the Dragon Hunter's lair. The original plan was for The Seven to live with the Dragon Hunters and be trained, but something terrible happens with some evil dragons kidnapping the Dragon Hunters and The Seven have to forego their training and go with what talent they have to save their mentors. 

Sound good to everyone?

Sounds good Leeli! Just a heads up, I have a lot of new classes this year then I get home and do algebra and stuff, so at times I may be able to write a lot or not at all. Nevertheless, I'm really excited for this to start!

It's completely fine, General Waffleson. Not your fault that I'm unfamiliar with those games. I'd just rather keep this RP to what I know. :)
