Congratulations! You have been recruited.
One night while asleep you are kidnapped- well, willingly kidnapped.
After decades of unrest, there is talk of King Darius invading the southern kingdom after finding evidence surrounding his stepdaughter's disappearance which leads him to suspect the southern kingdom is at fault.
But little does he know that she has fled his tyranny and stirred up a rebellion in hopes of overthrowing him in order to bring peace to the kingdoms.
After much searching, she has stumbled upon those like her who are infused with power which is illegal and punishable by death. In the dead of night, her men kidnap you and she recruits you to aid her cause.
In the weeks to come, you'll be subjected to vigorous training where you'll learn to master your abilities and perhaps even how to wield a bow or sword.
The perks? Freedom from a life spent of hiding and servitude as well as becoming a hero in the land for freeing the people from the king's oppressive rule.
The negative side effects? You will be marked as an enemy of the king and everyone will know that you're a marked (those born with supernatural abilities).
Along the way, you'll make friends and possible enemies, but you'll all be united with a single objective- overthrow the king. However, there may also be a traitor or two within your midst. (If you absolutely do not wish to be the traitor, private message me. I'd like to add a bit of intrigue to the storyline by randomly choosing a person along the way so no one will see it coming. On the other hand, if you'd like to be the traitor that's completely fine, just message me.)
This is pretty much a sandbox rp. The setting and plot is set, but it's solely up to you to build your character and decide what direction is best for the character to take as well as the direction of the story. If you wish to play the king or a royal from the southern kingdom, that's fine as well.
My only request for the rp is that you write paragraphs. Doesn't have to be an entire page, but one-liners or a few paragraphs with merely a few sentences will not be acceptable.
I'll wait until there seems to be interest in the rp before typing up something more concrete and creating a character sheet layout.
If you have any suggestions/questions just ask!

The centuries old treaty between the kingdoms of Alynthi and Kestramor was dismantled when King Darius rose to power. Driven by hunger for wealth and power, he oppressed the people of Kestramor through heavy taxation and forced most of them into servitude in order to keep their lands. After depleting Kestramor's resources, he focused his attention on Alynthi which is known for its gold mines and abundant forestry.
Relatively small, the kingdom subjected itself to his enforced rule and cruelty.
A few years into his reign, his wife became ill and he called upon a healer who was said to be a Marked- a person born with supernatural abilities. When the healer failed to save his wife, the king had the woman executed and vowed to destroy all of the Marked.
The Marked that have managed to escape have hidden themselves within the monotony of society, knowing that if they were to be discovered they would be turned over to the king and killed. After years of hiding, it is believed the Marked are nearly extinct. It is not certain what abilities they have, although some are said to be able to change weather patterns, manipulate the elements, and read minds.
The king's stepdaughter also believed the Marked had been wiped out until she discovered her own abilities at the age of six. Fearing for her life, she hid her power from King Darius, but after years of witnessing his cruelty, especially toward those with supernatural abilities like herself, she knew she had to help the people and dethrone the king.
