The Horror queen from your day dreams
Our game starts in a kingdom ravished by war. All of the citizens are living in fear and the poor are starving. Supplies are short, money is low, and everyone is at the point where they feel like all hope is lost. The King's daughter has suddenly gone missing from her chambers abruptly, but no palace guards had seen anything suspicious and there is no sign of struggle.
Not wanting to draw attention to what very well might be his daughter abandoning her duties to the Kingslands, his majesty puts together a band of skilled knights and even a few rouges to locate the princess and return her discretely.
That's the opening, which can appear fairly standard. However, this is just a launching point for a much larger and more twisted plot that I would like other roleplayers to be able to contribute to as the game begins, if possible. My main idea is:
The princess didn't run away and was in fact kidnapped, but not by the enemy. One of the mages in service to the King's sorcery division has posed as a palace guard to take the lady as a high-born sacrifice for a ritual that he believes will stop the war. He has taken her to an old asylum where those who have been mentally damaged by war or magic live out their days in servitude stitching fine clothes for local merchants.
In the basement of the Asylum, he attempts to complete the ritual by calling upon his gods and blood-letting the princess as a symbol of the slow hemorrhage of life that war brings. However, the asylum's patients have taken an interest in the princess and break free of restraint, stopping the mage before it could be completed. This angers the gods and instead of bestowing peace amongst the land they send wrath in the form of hell-dragons and reapers from which the kingdom must be saved.

Other Information
Magic is a part of this world, though there are no specific restrictions on what kind of magic. Healing and destructive magic, charms, and black arts are all welcome. Of course, don't utilize magic to change someone's character or do any Amind control without their consent first.
This world is home to humans, elves, dwarves, and now demons once the gate has been opened. Your character can belong to any of these races.
