Fantasy The Fall of Aetherynn: A Post-Apocalyptic Fantasy

ProjectMischa

Your friendly neighborhood fangirl.

Plot Overview:

For centuries, dragons had seemingly vanished without a trace. Many had speculated that they had been hunted to extinction, killed off by our ancestors. Without the threat of destruction breathing down our necks, humanity flourished to an advanced age. Aetherynn saw an unprecedented age of peace. What we accomplished was merely dreamed about back then, as we advanced technology beyond what we thought was capable. Instant communication, augmented reality, cutting-edge weaponry and medicine, all were brought to light in our freedom. We had become the top of the food chain, safe in our comfortable homes and lives. In our arrogance, we had convinced ourselves that we were invincible.

We were wrong.

There was little we could do to prepare for the first attack. Our capital city was targeted first, a chillingly clear message sent to us. Fire rained down from the sky, vines sprouted forward and cracked the very foundations of our buildings. We had learned a painful truth that day: the dragons had never died out. They were merely hiding, waiting for the perfect chance to strike. In their wait, they had tripled their numbers, overwhelming us with their power. Our weapons, advanced as they were, did nothing to dent their hides. We never thought to make our new weapons capable of killing dragons. How could we when there were no dragons in sight to test them on?

Destruction and death came swiftly. Our cities were desecrated within seconds. In a desperate attempt to survive, we fled our homes in droves, scurrying towards the only safe haven we could think of. We hid underground, away from the watchful eyes of the dragons, and did all we could to rebuild our society. Without easy access to the surface, our technology regressed back to more primitive forms: bows, shields, and swords. There is only one hope for humanity now. We must fight back, learn their weaknesses, and reclaim our homeland.

I only pray we don't get hunted to extinction before then.

Summary:
This will be a modern post-apocalyptic fantasy roleplay. Modern society, one very similar to our society in reality, has been destroyed by the sudden return of vengeful dragons. Humankind has fled underground while the dragons reign supreme on the surface. Now, humans and dragons will be locked into a war for the land of Aetherynn. So much hangs in the balance, now. There's only one important question remaining. Will you join the fight?

Highly interested in this. Don't let my status on the site scare you. :) I'm quite versed in role playing and have a potential character in mind.
 
Excellent! Thank you so much for the warm welcome! What is your stance on pretty posts? I'm on mobile and will perhaps be more text based than the typical user. Is this ok?

Edit: By that I mean the quality of the post won't suffer, but they won't be visually pretty. Haha!
 
Coding for posts can be very time consuming and some formats are hard to read.
I'm fine with both coded posts and simple text posts. As long as it works for you and people can read it easily, that's all that matters to me :3
 
This kind of reminds me of Reign of Fire. I like it.

Interested.
 
Awesome! The more the merrier :3

Also. How do the dragons communicate and what is their intelligence? Do they operate in an organized manner or is it up to everyone to act on their own?

I would say the dragons are fairly intelligent, at least at the level of humans, if not more. They have a defined and organized structure catered around the abilities of each dragon, and plan their strategies with that in mind. As far as communication goes, dragons communicate with each other verbally and swift dragons might act as messengers if needed.

Awesome! Is there language understandable to the humans and vice versa?

They're able to understand and speak the human language. The dragon language, however, is lost to humans, since it's been so long since dragons played a role in their daily lives.

We're thinking of waiting until maybe one or two more people show their interest before posting them.
Though I think if there's no new posts by tomorrow, we'll start working on the thread and CS right away. It shouldn't take too long, either, since we did a lot of planning for the overview and CS beforehand :3
