FATE - Power of the Stars
Current status: Open and accepting players.
IMPORTANT: This works as a Pnp (Pen and paper) rpg in the manner that encounters, problems and such are described by a GM (Hazeala) and that there is a plotprogression that changes depending on your actions. This means that although I, as GM, play multiple NPC roles during the RP it is mainly meant for you to enjoy and play. (This is partly practice as GM irl for a DND campaign.)
NB: Please only join if you can write in a fluid and easy to read manner, and be mature about the way the RP progresses.
- This is a novel RP, meaning that replies and plays are made without signs, *#¤, except for when a character speaks, and I would prefer if the lykos in this didn't speak, but instead express themselves through animalistic interaction. (Though that is up for discussion, if you all want them to be able to talk that is what we'll do).
Example of the RP's reply form:
Charcter Name:I run through the snow when I see you falling, the flakes swirling into the air as I jump to get to you, to save you. The blood on your fur fills me with terror, but I don't know what to do. I stop beside you, whimpering to express my concern. Shaking with fear, I stand between you and the attacker.
Plot:
Prologue:
High up north, between the mountains and the thundra lives a pack of Lykos. The pack is small, and allthough they have always been born with strong powers of Ice, they are loosing them. The old ones in the pack, though physically weak, are the only ones with true control and real powers of ice and the young ones are barely able to lower the temperature of the air they breath. The pups can't even do that.
When the old ones suddenly starts dying and only few are left with the power of ice, the pack looses its way of life. The packleader Rothos fears that the pack will die out without the protection of the icepowers and knows that something must be done to bring it back.
Legend of the stars:
Back in the time before beastlords and the shortly after the great divide, the first alpha of the Lykos travelled to the highest mountain to beseech the moon for the power to keep her pack safe from attacking enemies and natural disasters. The moon took pity on her and gifted her and her pups with the power of ice. From then on, lykos could freeze the very air they breathe and lower temperatures around them. Some could even freeze the ocean beneath their paws and cross the great waters. When the first alpha had grown old with age and was about to die, the stars came down from the heavens to aks her to dance with them instead. They say that if ever the pack is threathened, she will come down from the skies to freeze the oceans.

Name: Rothos
Gender: Male
Age: Adult, bordering to old.
Personality: Kind, but strong enough to be harsh when it is needed. He snaps easily, and has a hard time apologizing. Loyal, protective, always tries to do the best for the pack.
Ice Powers: Not very strong, he has the power to freeze flesh as he bites it, and can at times freeze the things he breathes at.
Packposition: Alpha male - with no mate and most likely about to step down from the position.

Family: A young son (playable!) but otherwise his pack is his family.
Background/Lifestory: Rothos was born and raised with the pack and only became Alpha late in his adult years. His mate, the female alpha, Amia, drowned in a sudden flood a year ago together with two of his pups. The third survived and has now become a young male.
Player roles:
Name: Arune
Gender: Male
Age: 1 year and 8 Month (normal wolf ages?) Young is about to become an adult
Personality: Mostly shy and a little bit of a dreamer. Due to his position in the pack he is often acted ironical or frustrated with pack members of his age. He is fascinated about the "Magic" of the old members of the pack and has high respect for them. Arune loves to investigate his surroundings and has a good feeling for forms colors and textures. He sees snowflakes as an art form and a wonder of the great wolfs He would love to be able to create ice and "art" on his own. He is very curious and want to know as much as possible. travel the old paths of the packs, communicate with nature and learn more about everything that surrounds him. As well he would love to find out who his father was. Although Arune is not very physical strong he is really quick and agile. Because of that he prefers to flee or avoid a brawl with other young male Lykos. He is very intelligent but sometimes a bit tooo cocky about that.This doesn't help his social position exactly. He is a "weakling" and a "know-it-all stick in the mud". He likes pubs but is unable to cope with them when it is more then two who want to play. He prefers to tell stories to the pubs if he can. To sing the stories of the old is one of Arune's favorite things. And his howl is one of the few things he is aware of that other Lykos are envious about it and really like it to listen to him as well. (if he wasn't so shy....). He is proud of his voice but he is afraid to howl in front of a great audience. Mostly he howls for his mother, the elder or the pubs when he thinks he is alone with them. Still he wants to leave the pack when he is old enough. If the pack hasn't a crisis at stake he may would have already left to see the wonders of the world on his own.
Ice Powers: No active powers so far. Can sense if something is natural or created with ice powers. He is able to assign an aura of the creator. If he knows a Lykos well, with prudent training he can identify the creator.

Family:
Mother: Eos (NPC); Omega
Father: Unknown
Background/Lifestory: Arune is a Bastard of the female omega Eos. He know very little about his father when he ask about him, his mother only says this name was Tervicz and that he had have a beautiful voice like Arune.
As a bastard, to make it even worse a bastard of an omega, Arune never had a high social rang between the Lykos. He was very often the punching ball and doormat for someones bad mood. So he learned erly to be rather on his own and do what higher ranks told him, to avoid being beaten up. He hung out whit the old and the outsiders of the pack or his mother mostly. When it was possible for him, he wandered of alone to check the surroundings and the territory of his home. So far he want to leave the pack, because he sees no good future at this place. But when Rothos speak up that something have to be done or, the pack will die out Arune sees finally a chance to acquire a better position in the pack.
