Lets see.

<sub>So far what has been decided (though can be still up for debate) is...
- It will be a wild horse roleplay... xP
- It will be on proboards.

I came up with a bit of a plot-rough draft for it, since asked... though it's not overly great (Meaning, I would gladly ditch it for something better. xD) plot-line-like-thing...


“Every story begins with the finishing of another.”

Every light has a shadow. Even great men tend to lie. And not everyone is destined to die. And just because he loves you, doesn’t mean he has the same in mind. Take note.

The war began like every other. And what better at the bottom of it then a maiden. The war began with the brothers of the great king. The darling princes that held the namesake of ‘Heaven’ and ‘Hell’. And so began the feud, and so lasted the feud, and so the feud morphed into the everlasting battle of light against dark and blah, blah, blah…

We have all heard the story. All listened to the remix. Time for something a tad new, yes? Something to ruffle one’s feathers and to get them stomping the yard in anticipation. And yet, really now… originality and creativity, such a fickle, fickle thing. Is it even possible to capture such in this day and age?
Of course.

It happened on the fifth day of the fifth month with one fifth of the herd watching.
It happened on five acres of land and when only five percent of the sun still shown.
It was a perfect catastrophe, with the five being the repeating.

The earth buckled and those near it fell through. Acid rain plummeted and the clouds moved exceptionally fast. Wind ripped their hides as the wrath of many was let loose upon the living once more. With all the ‘demons’ crawling out of the forests and dining. The ocean turned acid and the world, nightmarish. For five days and five nights the land was forsaken by dark clouds the screaming of the dieing. As they slunk from the shadows and fractured the herd. Cornering children, women, and men alike and sending to their ultimate demise while swallowing their spirit and essence.
And so the Perfect Catastrophe broke the Herd… and so when the King and Queen broke from the Protection and offered their selves to spare their Herd… all were silent.

They walked the path of fear. And the Herd stood watch to witness. The clouds broke from black to a light grey, and the torrent slowed to a drizzle. The world was barren and incomplete, and they saw the darkened shadows at the edge…
The King and Queen were swallowed. Their corpses left to their followers, mutilated and disturbing. But the demon held it’s vow. The Herd would be spared for five days. And in those five days the Herd would leave or be consumed.

And so the Herd left never to come back… with the legend of the Perfect Catastrophe told to their children’s children and all generations. And though the Herd broke into the Fractions… they all heard it. The story of the legendary land where the King and Queen were consumed by the demons… about the fortress that stood…

Is it true? One must wonder. Elders of numerous herds tell the same story, give or take details but… still. Is it not amazing that they use the same tales? To believe that the ground beneath you cracked, that colossal giants have came from the forest and mauled one’s ancestors…

Odd occurrences, odd history, odd lore, odd rules. The land is filled to the brim… It is said to have been host to the story of the legends. Said to be the place where the light and dark fought, said to be the place where the knight saved the princess… said to be the place where all else originated and was said to be the place where the gods held their council.
They lay claim to such a title and none seem to object. How odd... and odder yet, this is the place you have stumbled upon.</sub>

That's great. I love it, and it's easy to work with.

[Amut]

_{=3 Glad you like it Elect... I figured it would also be easy to work with also, my thinking being the herds (instead of being moral oriented) could be founded on what they want from the land. Example, a herd could be erected to disprove the legends, another to fallow it, and another to see if it's real, ect. but I was some what worried that it really wasn't a plot, but more of a 'history' like thing of the place... -bites lip- It's not overly thrilling to me and... -reads it over- It's a tad much rough... I'll edit it and fix the errors once/if Sarah approves it. =D Whilst coming up with other things for alternatives. ^^}

[Sarah]

I like it. It's pretty good. But, my concern is too that it's a history and not a plot. But we could figure something out.

[Amut]

_{Have another history-plot thing... x3 This one's a bit more solid... I'll be back in ten-twenty minutes and write-post it. ^^ And... feel free to work on other things, like the rules and things -doesn't want us to be hung up on the plot too long-}

[Amut]

<sub>The other one is 'based' on the idea that not a ton is known about the bottom of the ocean. In this plot-history-story the ocean has 'died up' and they are now located on the ocean floor... which resembles a desert. The 'land' that showed while there was a sea are now very tall mesas that are rarely accessible. There are different areas among the ocean floor... some can be volcanic, where the oceanic ridges are, others can be a bit deeper and be valleys filled with water. And, also, there can be large skeletons of large fish littered among the floor...

I'm sure with this in mind you'd be wondering how they would survive, considering this is the ocean floor... My thoughts are their can be a few 'accessible' 'islands'. They are elevated land with an incline the horses can trek. The islands would have been above the ocean and have enough fertile soil to provide enough nutrition to plants... Far as shelter during ‘sand storms’ there can be crevices in the walls mesas, varying in size where the horses can find cave-like conditions. ‘Course the cave would resemble those underwater caves since, if the ocean was still present, that would be what they are…

Like this idea a bit better, but… didn't go into much detail since... you just need the outline to see if you like it...</sub>

[Amut]

<sub>More of a plot:

A mother gave birth to two sons. Without a father to protect them, and with her health being so poor she soon died…

The children survive, fighting against odds together until one faithful day of separation.
One brother was accepted into a herd where the King was without son and without wife. The King took pity on the youth and soon the youth was a son the King never had. He was soon the heir… And he soon received the thrown when the King died of natural causes.
The other brother was captured by an odder herd. Where he joined the ranks and fought his way up. One day he challenged the Lead… The Lead was not entirely idiotic, he knew this day would come but… there was a fight none the less. He died as the brother took the throne.

One day the brothers fell for the same courtesan. Not knowing each’s brother was the other suitor war broke out until the faithful day on the battleground when they met. All war was silenced since then when an alliance was made. They conquer many a places with a herd of two. Gaining many enemies…
Until the faithful day when one’s malice reached a limit… Limit to where s/he conspires, gaining her own herd discreetly she aims for the ruin of both herds. Through mutiny or pure war, whatever way necessary.</sub>

_{My plots aren’t real good, lol. xDD Much better at graphics… Speaking of, think I’ll work on that sum. Maybe a gray - navy color theme?}

[Electrum]

Hmm.. I like the ocean one better, the two sons one is more of a plot.

[Amut]

_{Should I make it into an opening with more detail with it then?}

[Sarah]

I love the one about the two sons! Great, great great. And as for the skin, gray is good. Not something over the top, but still looks organized. Want me to get started on making the rules?

[Amut]

<sub>Starting on the rules would be wonderful! -pokes Elect- You both should work on them... ^^ Far as me, I am pretty positive I will agree with you on whatever rules made, so long as they aren't too out there. x3 And, also, perhaps we should start throwing in ideas for the name?

Also... some ideas far as running [not sure if that's really the word...] the place ^^ :

---- If we use the one about the sons then there will be three high roles to fill. Two for the brothers, one for the rebel. We could each fill them (as well as play other characters). xD A thought is, for the two brothers... we could play it similarly to Redemption. Where the two leads owned a great expansion of land, and then gave pieces of it to their personal court-council (giving one the ability to claim land. ^^). Though, instead of making a real 'herd' on their land, the would be able to make a fraction within the herd... If that makes sense?

---- I think the admin account should be an account used for the rules and things. I know on some sites the admin account morphs into the owner's account but... I think it would be easier if all three of us made our own separate account, using the admin account to change rules and give powers, banning, ect.

---- And, also, perhaps... we should have a forum where tragedy can fall any moment? xD I mean... We could also use the admin account for 'dictating' tragedy? Like... predator attacks, fierce storms, accidents, a forest fire. Perhaps these things should be a bit random to add interest? It gets a touch old when every day in the RPG is perfect, with a few days only dotted with a bit of rain... I think if we use the admin account to 'broadcast' catastrophes it would be kinda fresh and new... Though, if a catastrophe is suppose to happen to a certain person, we should, of course, ask for consent...</sub>

[Electrum]

Sounds great, and gray is good. Okay, so do we have a forum yet? Or are we still just typing to each other?


The admin account thing sounds good, but possibly, since there are three of us, there should be three of them, that way if one person is logged onto it, then another one can also be logged into an admin account.

The catastrophes are a good idea, and randomly is great. Asking for permission of a victim is a very good idea. I know that if an admin just said "Hey, your character is going to be killed by an earthquake" I'd get a little defensive.

[Amut]

<sub>Nope x3 We do not have a forum yet... xD We're just typing back and forth... But I do think we need a name before we can make it (hint.hint.) ^^

And... I think that numerous people can log onto the same account...
And the admin account (my view, this is the account that is made auto during the pro board creation. It is the one with the 'admin' login name) should be used just for the major things. Making rules, putting up general updates, telling of maintenance, used to PM about catastrophes. Our accounts (in my idea, the three we will each make.) will also have all the admin features, but will be used to just make boards, do specific updates, used for us to roleplay, our profiles, ect.</sub>

[Electrum]

I LOVE that! The colors are great.

Okay... Hmm... Names.... I'll have to think about that one. So we are using the Two Sons one?

Okay, yeah that makes more sense now. Umm... I started on the general rules. It's not the actual RP rules, more like the OOC rules. Not that I'm saying that these are them, because I'm not. it's just a general idea.

General Rules
