Sitting in my room finishing up the great book of amber i sat there really bored........so I thought to myself to start this RPG...even if it is good or bad I hope some people will try to join it.
Story so Far....
The Lost Realm is pen name to the legendary land Arios, A continent full of different cities ranging from the frozen north where humans found a way of living from the surplus of fish for trade to the southern cities which hold the largest guilds from the infamous Thieves guild to the Mages Guild holding unspeakable power of the ancient wizards and sorcerers. Or maybe even the great forest which house the long living elves and the mines beneath this world which is home to the many Dwarves. Cities from every race and culture fill this land from those populated by riches of gold to the port cities of the vast ocean of trade. You are no more then a small part of this open world traveling. As you started of in your home and then left to find adventure. Or maybe even adopted by the wizards to learn the great arcane or a dwarf who decided to leave their mines and travel to the world of elves and humans and its creatures. Or maybe an elf who wanted to escape the woods to live among the short lived humans. But all of you have the same wanting need of Adventure to travel this world helping its inhabitants or raiding their homes for loot. All you have to do is choose your path.......
Cities-
Frozen Dale- This new colony of humans has been quickly growing learning to live through the long winters and grow a family. This colony began to live and prosper from the surplus of Fish found in its cold waters during the summer months bringing in Enough money to live. But even though the people sometimes fight over land rights to the lake of where some should fish....Many adventurers found this place a wonderful place to explore, for it is filled with creatures and game to earn a profit and some might even want to help the council of the dale settle its arguments in their own ways......
Port Near- A small port city full of thugs and bars. Criminals meat here in the pubs and some bounty hunters can become very wealthy from their hunting in this city. Guard is very low and so fights between different gangs occur here often.....Other then getting drunk at a pub here people can find good deals to travel on the passing ships to the south and a bit farther north
Elmar (Elle-Mar)- The largest port city in all of the realm, This large city is full of those of the higher class to those of the lowly thugs like those in Near. Many people pass through this city daily, Always there is an Execution to be seen going on and business is always burning even through some of the Lords of the town. Many adventurers can find allot to do. From large shops to getting a cleaner ship to travel and even getting a few jobs from the people of this wonderful city. Decorated in many ways and always changing.
Calimshan- The southern heaven as it is called.....Even larger then Elmar this city holds home to the guilds of the Realm. Many things can be found here. Information about almost anything and maybe anyone and those depressed can find their share of pubs to gamble and pleasure themselves....But at the same time people are always on a sharp watch from the passing thieves of the city. Much more the adventure can be found here....All you need to know is where to find it and what to do when you do....
The dwarven cities are away from the ocean and as we well know under ground and hardly bothered with by Humans and Elves....Only one is known of an it is called The Silver Hall. Located underground East of Port Near.
Major Forest-
Ashwood- Home of the mythical elves this is where you might begin if you are of elvish blood. The wood seams to almost be alive with the magic of the long living elves. Always moving and full of sound. It is also home of some of the realm's more vicious creatures. Explorers and Adventurers are always exploring this place for it is full of ancient treasure and stories of some of the realm's more heroic characters. Weapons and armors of lore can be found here if you are resourceful and know where to look and entering the realm of the elves can also be allot more then just a wonderful experience it can also be a dangerous and incredible one....
Ruins-
There are only two known ruins in the realm that have been found and studied, Both of which have no name but hold more secrets the the forest of Ashwood itself.....When you have the time and courage to come and study these demon infested hells maybe more then just riches could be found.....Both are located around the Frozen wasteland (A bit south)
Enemies-
Pirates-When on a sea voyage it does not always allow you time to rest, Pirates are always on the look out of ships to raid and capture....Makes you wander what they have.....
Banshee-Only one is know to exist (or has been found) and she can be found in the lesser forest of the Moon....But beware..Its shriek has the power to kill so be prepared for anything while in the forest
Goblins-Like you don't already know.....
Orcs-Maybe a bit alike to the goblins the orcs are much larger and stronger then the goblins and can usually be found in the mountains in the east living by the path to the city of Elm...A city that holds the great library of knowledge and home to the great elders.
Giants-Big, Strong, Dumb, and live in caves around the Realm....Sometimes on a rare occasion might befriend a large goblin tribe.
Nightmares- Black creatures like wolves but larger and have the smell of Death, those who meat one can not escape but killing it or dieing and making it stronger, found in forests like Ashwood and the Moon Forest.
Dragon- The fiercest of all creatures, they are large wise and love their treasure. They leave in caves around the great mountains of the east on with their large hoards of gold and treasure....Although some can be found in places underground like under the ice of the northern wasteland.
Assassins- Some people might not always like you.....
Remember you might also find and discover new creatures on your quest..
Character Races-
Elves
Dwarf
Human
Half Elf
Half Orc
Each race can specialize in any weaponry but the Half Orc is excluded from magic unless raised by their human parent. Elves though have a much superior rate of agility and finece in weaponry they prefare magic other then weaponry and the dwarves and excellent fighters. Humans can study either or both and the Half Elf tends to be the same.
