The Lands of Fourstone Sign-Up and Discussion Thread

the rules


1) I am only accepting experienced RPers that don't only post one-liners. Don't be offended if you don't get in. ;_; I'm picky, and if your application is less-than-stellar, I can't accept you. I will do the best of my ability to help you fix it, though.

2) This is semi-literate. No one-liners.

3) No Mary-Sues, Gary-Stus, or Anti-Sues. I want good, believable characters.

4) I am the RP master, but I am open to suggestions. This world was created by me (and some helpful fantasy-world stereotypes) and it is a sandbox. We can create virtually anything out of it.

5) The plan for this RP is to be quite lengthy. Don't be surprised if it doesn't end for three hundred pages. (a bit extreme, I know, but it could happen o3o) If interest is lost, of course, I will close it.

6) Stemming from 5: If you don't think you'll enjoy the RP based on plot, setting, etc. don't join. I want to enjoy this, and it isn't fun if no one else does. D:

7) Follow my rules yo~

8) PG-13 rating. :P Nothing too risky, but it will be a bit mature/dark. Don't join if you aren't okay with that.

9) This is meant to be fun! :D Remember to have it.

10) Don't be afraid to PM me or talk here -- this is the general discussion for a reason.

the template

Name: - make this fantasy-oriented. The elves of all kinds have "elven" names, and there are a lot you can find online. The Fair have generic fantasy human names, like Serana or Erick or something. The Gray have Norse names. The Tribal people have names like Uaile, Madanach, Dryston, Duach, Ennoc, Yvara, Nana, etc. I can help with these. The Wavefolk have Hawaiian names like Ailani and Akau. The Redlanders have Egyptian names. I suggest giving a nickname if the name is long.

Age: 14-19; you are leaving the orphanage. 19 is required graduation, but sometimes the younger ones leave too. 13 and below are not allowed to leave.

Race: self-explanatory.

Height: Depends on age. Adult heights include:
Gray - males 5'9" to 6'4", females 5'7" to 5'10"
Redlander - males 5'8" to 6'2", females 5'5" to 5'9"

Sea Elves - males 5'9" to 6'2", females 5'6" to 5'10"

Weight: Be reasonable.

Class: You do not start out as a fully fleshed out mage or thief or whatever. This is the class you're interested in becoming as time goes on; you will have a natural aptitude, however.

Personality: You can keep this simple. I don't like long personalities, so I shouldn't make you do them.

Appearance: Not that hard. :3

Clothing: You will start out with simple commoner clothing. Detail it here, but it won't be dynamic and you will be changing.

Name: Koa

Age: 15

Race: Wavefolk

Height: 5' 6"

Weight: 119 lbs

Class: Thief

Personality: Delinquent, liar, trickster, and thief are all words that have been used to describe Koa. He instead thinks of himself as a charming, lovable, and rather handsome fighter for the people. While he fantasizes himself as a heroic outlaw fighting the Witch-Queen, he is a poor fighter and inept at most things, and is in fact very cowardly when it comes to fights. His only real skill is in being stealthy and the art of stealing. He's a smooth talker.

Appearance: Dark, tanned skin with short black hair with brown eyes. Not very muscular or tall at all.

Clothing: Light gray frock, darker gray hood, and a black half-cloak.

Weapons: He's always wanted a cutlass, as they're common weapons with sailors.

Backstory: He was born and raised in Whiteport, where he practically became a master thief and often stole from the many merchants and newcomers to the city. His parents never questioned it. However, as the influence of Voada grew, they began to move north to Frost to try and escape the corruption in the Isles. Koa's mother got sick and was unable to be saved by local Healers. His father soon succumbed to the cold as well and he was brought into the Croft Orphanage at 15. He was planning on training to become a rebel soldier.

Name:Elden

Age:18

Race:Snow Elf

Height:5'8"

Weight: 122 lbs

Class:Sorcerer

Personality: Elden is an intelligent strategic boy, who dreams of adventure and getting a boat to sail Fourstone on. Despite his intelligence, he is sort of an alcoholic, despite his young age, due to a taste test complimentary of an orphanage worker when he was but 16. Due to this, he will kindly fly towards a nearby bar when there is one available, and make a fool of himself when intoxicated. Skilled at handling horses.

Appearance:White haired, deep blue eyed elf with light colored skin. Has a birthmark on his neck that is reddish, and he claims to be a scar. Not too strong, but strong enough due to the chores he did at the orphanage.

Clothing: Wears a blue shirt with three buttons on the top, and has black pants and brown boots. Elden has black gloves, which I am hesitant of saying are fingerless, because that sounds a tad noobish. Also has a necklace that he won off a drunk guy while gambling one night. Is silver with an emerald, though he tends to hide it under his collar.

Weapons: A knife for physical defense would be nice, but magic would be his main weapon.

Backstory: Elden was told as a child in the orphanage that his father was a guard in a village in the deep north of Frost. He had met a young snow elf there, and the two got married, conceiving him. Though, bandits attacked said village shortly after his birth. His parents were killed, and survivors had fled to the town in which the orphanage is. Not wanting an extra mouth to feed, and fearing the baby would not handle the rough conditions they were going through, they left the child at the orphanage, where he was cared for. Elden got a love of horses early in his life. He had taken care of a horse named Apricot. Apricot was elderly, though, and passed away when Elden was but 16.
He has been responsible for a lot of the horses at the orphanage, but none of them are his physical property. He is skilled at riding them, so let's call him the badarse horseback mage.
Oh, and he also got mixed up in alcohol with an old orphanage worker at 16, when Elden's favorite horse had died. Due to his sadness, he had drank alcohol with the worker, and had quickly gotten addicted. When the orphanage owner had heard of this, she fired the worker, but the damage had been done.


Sorry. Trying to write a creation at 2 am is purty difficult. ;u;

My apologies! Sea Elves should have been listed under Warrior, Paladin, Archer, Wizard, & Rogue. I'll fix that!

Jay, if he is to be a combat-class he'll probably add weight as we go on - just a note. Also, not to be picky, but how did he end up in Silvershrine? Many times orphans/babies are taken there because of the charitable community. His relative could have sailed there or some such~

Note for everyone; your character does not have to be a Gray. Many pilgrims or just travelers have stayed in Silvershrine, and the same is true of nearly every city. No one race is limited in where they may go by their homeland/race.

Sleepy, your backstory is perfectly executed.

Both of you are approved. :D Wonderful apps!

All I'll need is your dialog colors and we'll be gooood. Nothing blinding plz.

Edits; I added the Shadowlands explanation under creatures. The name "Aether" was too light; witches aren't normally good.

Thanks :D

How about Navy?

Gotcha! You are now the sole owner of that color. ;D
Also: Regarding half-breeds, because this topic will inevitably be brought up; a child of two different race parents will always be the race of the mother, Elder Scrolls style.

My character:

Name: Yvara

Age: 19

Race: Tribal

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 127 lbs

Class: Healer

Personality: She loves to help others. Honestly. Yvara aims to please in whatever ways she can, and she loves to make other people happy. She's neat and well-composed, but also kind and compassionate. She is a devout worshiper of the gods, namely Alma. Despite the fact that she is the descendant of a long line of Tribal witches, she is more drawn towards healing and priesthood.

Appearance: A petite girl with shoulder length light brown hair, a soft, round face and sparkly green eyes. She has all the traits of a Tribal; her nose is thin and straight, her fingers long and thin, and her eyes are slightly smaller than usual. A thin and wispy girl, she is not suited for the rough life of a Warrior or the litheness being a Thief requires; and besides, she isn't interested in anything of that sort.

Clothing: Yvara wears a brown skirt and a green and white blouse, belted around her waist. She has simple leather shoes and wears leather gloves when outside, along with a long, brown cloak.

Weapons: Eventually, perhaps a staff or a dagger. Her mind is her weapon.

Backstory: The illegitimate daughter of a Tribal witch and an unidentified Gray man from Winterwood. She was raised by the coven -- which consisted of two Snow Elves, two Tribals, three Gray, and two Fair -- for three years. When rumors circulated that a coven had taken refuge in the Pine Forest of Frost, nearby villagers and cityfolk got scared. What if the witches were to attack them? A bounty was put on the coven, and before they knew it, a Gray Paladin from Winterwood killed them all, except a 3-year old girl. He collected his reward from the High King of Frost, and then proceeded to raise the girl for the three years that followed. Vorstagg had to leave on a religious expedition to Mistrial, and decided it was too dangerous to take Yvara with him. Regretfully, he took her to Silvershrine and hoped the Croft Orphanage would take care of her. He never returned.

Since then, Yvara has become the resident cook's assistant at the Orphanage. She loves to cook and always prepares the best meals with what little the Orphanage can get. Her boss is the kind Hroki, a Gray woman and chef at the Orphanage. She has recently taken up alchemy and is learning from the Temple priestesses. She didn't want to leave the Orphanage, as it has come to be her home, and stayed until she was 19 -- which is where the story begins. She plans on staying and becoming a chef for the children, but unfortunately that isn't mean to be.

Dialog Color: Olive

Name: Tova

Age: 16

Race: The Grey

Height:5'2"

Weight: 118

Class: learning warrior

Personality: hot-headed, fairly jumpy, fast to react to what it looks like to her

Appearance: skinny, female with red hair, small black shorts that are oftenly worn, quite pale skin tone within winter but slightly changes along with the suns heat. (like if you get a sunburn for being in the sun but not as vulnerable)

Clothing:Long black pants that are oftenly worn, turqoise shirt with a few tears.

Weapons: A herburt Look it up

Backstory: She was born and raised in Frost, Unliked by others in the orphanage she was commonly alone, this helped develop her attitude, but, by the time she was twelve. by this time her attitude evolved from an innocent little girl to a hot-headed, fast reacting girl, aswell as jumpy.

Much better! I just need you to change your weapon and we'll be good.


And a note: When the RP comes to be, can you try to capitalize/put through a spell check? It'd be easier to read.

:3 thanks!

Name: Enro Alkrik Xelx

Age: 14 years

Race: Tribal

Height: 5'6"

Weight: 115 lbs.

Class: Necromancer

Personality: Quick-witted, isolated, and specific. Every little detail matters to Enro, and every little thing must be perfect. He's not quick to make friends, and prefers to wonder about his secretive past and stay isolated from others, and the world in general. If on the not-so-rare-but-uncommon chance you can get Enro to open up to you, and you become close friends, he'll be the best friend across Fourstones. He'll be loyal and protective, and quick to jump into a fight, verbal, physical, or both to defend a friend.

Appearance: Tallish with grayish blue eyes and short, shaggy, rusty colored brown hair. Pale skin, but not pasty.

Clothing: Worn leather clothing given to him from the orphanage. A pair of wooly gloves he found while outside one day, which he's kept since. No warm clothing; black wool gloves and pale, worn brown leather shirts, undergarments, and pants. Leathery, old shoes.

Weapons: Magic; specifically Necromancy

Backstory: Born in Vale, and lived there for the first two months of his life. His parents, unknown to him, fled to Frost with him. Lost in a blizzard, his parents were buried in the snow and froze and suffocated in the freezing underground isolation. An adult from the orphanage found him unconscious in the snow, only four months old. He's lived in the orphanage ever since, always wondering about his past that no one knows about.

Approved, both of you!


But Sarrow: You don't need three names. The Tribal only have one. x3


Also: I'm thinking of putting a cap on at 10 people total. x3 5 so far, 5 spots left.

Name: Akila

Age:16

Race:Redlander

Height:5'5”

Weight:120

Class:Assassin

Personality: Akila is not very talkative, and around complete strangers she will be completely silent, unless they talk to her about something very important. She can be kind,and caring when she wants to be. More often she is more violent, and tries to be fair about things.

Appearance:She is dark skinned girl. She has hair that is a dark brown, almost black, and wears it up most of the time. When it is down it goes down to her shoulder blades. Her eyes look gray but have a green tent to them. She is an average height, and she is sorta thin too.

Clothing: Akila wheres tan pants, and a white shirt. She has a black cloak to cover her head and the top half of her body.

Weapons: Perhaps a dagger, and maybe some throwing knifes?

Backstory: Akila lived in Drymist with her parents when she was younger, growing up in the dangerous condition didn't bother her one bit. In her free time she would try to figure out how to climb the buildings. One day her parents decided to move to the capitol of the Redlands. On the way there her parents, and Akila were attacked. Akila ran off after the people attacked her parents. Not knowing which way to go but forward she eventually made it to Sandreach. In Sandreach she got into trouble for stealing food, and other reasons. She was eventually caught and taken to the Croft orphanage.

Dialog Color: Fire Brick



(I hope this is good, If it is not I will recreate it. It's hard to make these things when you are half-asleep ;u;)

Name: Serana

Age: 15

Race: The Fair

Height: 5' 1"

Weight: 107 lbs

Class: Archer

Personality: Prefers to be alone, rather than work together, she loses her temper easily. Even though she has a small form, in fights she comes out strong and doesn't give up. Others describe her as rude, mean, and selfish, but Serana thinks herself as fairly nice, kind to others, and polite.

Appearance: Has a small form, has brown hair, light colored skin, and green eyes.

Clothing: Black, tight pants with a plain, long-sleeve, dark green shirt. She also has: black leather boots, a leather jacket, and wears a long, black cloak. She also has a lucky charm: A small, simple pendant, that has a swirl on it, was given to her by her mother.
Pendant:

Spoiler:

Weapons: Bow

Backstory: Serana's mother was a healer in the city of Winterwood, and had met Serana's father while healing one of his wounds, from an attack from pirates on his boat. They fell in love, but weren't married until 4 years after they met. They were married, and had Serana as a child. 13 years later, Serana's father wanted to show Serana's mother the delights of being a sailor on a boat. It was then when the pirates attacked and sunk the boat. Serana's mother and father swam to floating remains of the boat, while the others didn't have enough strength and drowned. Serana's parents stayed floating on the remains in the middle of the sea, until the wood became too soggy, it started sinking under their weight altogether. A few months later, Serana was told about her parents being missing. She was sent to an orphanage at the age of 13. When she was in the orphanage, she promised to avenge her parents' deaths. That is when she became an archer.

Dialogue Color: Green, it shall be!

Rhymey, you're approved!

Kipkip, you'll be approved after you change your class. Jay already took the Rogue Class, sorry. D:


Only 3 spots left! I've gotten interest from Frosty, Shad, and possibly Eb. Until I get word from any of them that they aren't joining, we're closed for now folks. :3 (I MAY make an exception or two if I get a good creation. 8D)

Is it ok now, Moon?
