Fantasy The Refuge of Wyllt Aurelianus

Doc Taylor

Doctor of Some Sort
1901 AD; Pennsylvania 


Life is strange; a phrase that's thrown around to describe the uncertainties of the world around us. People carry on with their "normal" lives not knowing what lies just beyond their assumptions and view. Tales have been told by man for millennia of happenings that we fear, admire, or simply can't explain. Tales of the night and the creatures that it hides; Tomes of forbidden power wielded by only the grandest of men and woman; legends of ancient relics that have brought victory through either the enrichment of men's minds or the corruption of their souls. Like most things of antiquity, these have been lost to the sands of time, or have been discounted as stories and superstition. Though many scoff at such things, there are others that see and experience the truth: these stories ring true and their subjects still walk the earth. Monsters lie beneath the waves, vampires stalk the shadows, and people such as yourselves have inherited abilities beyond the understanding of common man. Despite being under general perception for nearly 800 years, there has been a reawakening, bringing such things out of the woodwork again. In an age of rapid advancement, as the skyline is filled with smoke stacks and the harbors are filled with people seeking prosperity in the new world, we've taken the opportunity to provide sanctuary and sometimes guidance for the world's oddities and legends alike. Here, we'll put a roof over your head, maybe help you find some work along the way, and act as a light in a world plagued with darkness. 


Welcome to The Refuge of Wyllt Aurelianus. Burn house.jpg






So, with everything comes rules. Here are our few.


1. One post is required on the daily, unless discussed with myself or the Captain. If you don't post, you're evicted from the house. 


2. Don't be dragon Jesus, if you need clarification on what this means ask the Captain, or myself.


3. Be as detailed as possible on things. Paint a picture with your words, all that jazz.


 


How things are going to be run. 


This Rp is going to have a mix of all of the participants just doing their thing, and the Captain and I introducing different items for plot purposes. These little items are going to be jobs that your characters can earn a little cash by going on. They're also just going to help move things along. Aside from that, you all have your run of the house. Now, to be a part of this group your character does not have to have some magical gift. As long as they aren't your average joe, we'll take you at Wyllt. 


 


Ultimately, Wyllt Aurelianus is just a place for people to get back on their feet, however long that takes. We're not going to encourage people to leave, but we're not going to make you stay either. If you're not active, we'll find someone to fill the vacancy you leave. 


 


If you have any questions please let us know.

We're looking for a little bit of everything as far as players and characters go, so if you have an idea for what you want, we can certainly work with you. This house will be what we all make of it, and nothing is truly set in stone for what can happen here. Within the realm of good sense, high adventure, solid storytelling, and pure entertainment, we can do whatever we please. So, if any of that strikes you, and you want what can be at least a fun distraction and at best a grand tale, hit us up. A house isn't anything without the people who live in it.
 
I might be interested, but your OP is a little vague. What kind of things or people are likely to be in this refuge? What sort of world is it set in?


the concept holds potential, but I'm curious for more information. :)
 
Well, we take in the strange to be broad about it. We house men and woman with powers, magical through objects, as well as natural phenomenon that is rather "jarring" to the outside world. We also are willing to house those who wish to know more about the world that has gone unseen from the eyes of men for quite sometime now, inventors, alchemists, and the like. We give rest, jobs, we keep the peace, and occasionally provide guidance along with education to those who need it. As far as the world at hand, that's a bit of a longer story. You see, people have believed in governing forces of the universe since they could believe. In ancient days, people wielded power by there own hand through natural connection to said forces. Magic, as it had came to be called, has gone through several mountains and valleys across history, each time reaching a height, such as the Times of medieval England and Norway, only to be brought into a recession when great upheaval and belief was shaken, such as when Constantine rose to power in Rome. Those magically imbued have been said to have altered and bent the world to their own will, with things that people explain as "normal" or "one in a million chance" being the work of magical influence. The world has formed much as we know it, with such things pulling humanity one way or another. Now, magic, after laying mostly dormant since entering yet another valley in the mid 1600, has resurfaced in people. Now things that feared to show their faces are coming back. So we find ourselves in an age of advancement and immigration in the new world, being the old world's legends and monsters with it. So that's where we come in. Giving the shunned and strange a place to call their own.

It's always great when you're typing out a response and the other gm comes in and posts before you do. Not that this has ever happened to me of course. 
 
In all honesty, I'm tempted to just post the thread, and add people as we go. Can't expect to have all of our tenants at the start of opening the house can we? 
 
Alright guys, I think tomorrow night at 7 P.M. mountain time I'll put up the main thread for Wyllt. I'll post a link for it here, along with guidelines for your characters. 
 
Alright, here's a link to the character thread. I'll have the main thread up once everyone has posted their characters. 
 
Wondering if this was still accepting, I saw the interest check and thought it was an interesting premise, would be delighted to get involved if you're still looking about for players ^u^
 
We are accepting, absolutely. Sorry I haven't been very on top of it lately. The holidays have me rather busy, but please feel free to pm me with questions.
