Fantasy Turn of the Dark Ages [Closed]

Before the times of the Dark Ages was the reign of mythical creatures. These creatures everywhere were well respected and even held high positions in human societies. But then came along thoughts and ideas of individuality and separation from the mythicals. The humans began turning on the creatures because of all the power they wielded. The creatures tried to reason back but most ended up dead. Some few survivors took on human appearances by taking human vessels. But these vessels didn't last long. Then came along a promising prophecy for the mythicals.


Six will rise to lead their species to sanctuary. But these six must venture out and experience the hardships of the original mythicals, seek out the origins to if they are ever to succeed in finding their true homeland, Leine. These six will bear the uniqueness that was once the Rulers of Leine.



Now during the dark ages humans are suspicious of every little thing. They hold a grudge against the mythicals. They forbid magic because of these creatures. And they prohibit the source of fire, light, or anything associated to these creatures. Humans are so paranoid that they are even going against each other in suspicions that maybe one or the other are aiding in the return of the mythicals. But what they don't know is that really mythicals are living among them. But how much longer can they keep it up?



One other user and I created this idea as a one on one (originally only with dragons), but my partner has not responded in a while and I really wanted to roleplay this idea. I changed it up a bit to allow it to be a roleplay thread. I already have the creatures and what positions they are for the group.

Seems interesting enough, I personally would like to join, yet there's only two questions I have to ask, how often can these mythicals take a vessel? Also how is the length a vessel can be used before it burns out determined? 
Just thought of another question, any rules for the chimera? Like must it look like the Chimera from Greek myth or would any form of chimera do?
 
Only mythicals who have strong mental capability can take on a vessel, and the vessel only lasts depending on the current health status of the vessel once they took over.


So if the vessel was an old, ill man then it would perhaps last for several months. A young, healthy woman would probably last for several years.


And the Chimera...mmm I would prefer to see a picture first but I guess any form would do.
 
Ok, also I have many chimera pictures in case I needed to explain what I meant, so would you mind if I posted a few?

So many types of chimera (hopes the full metal alchemist joke will be acceptable)

I don't mind any of these so if you want the Chimera position then you can decide what image you want to use.
 
Ok then, since it's a fighter, and might be able to take a human vessel I'll go with this one.<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2014_10/57a8c0845100d_images(9).jpg.5383abff6d02e453ac93a9fe88d21b58.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="31366" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2014_10/57a8c0845100d_images(9).jpg.5383abff6d02e453ac93a9fe88d21b58.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>

Nope...hopefully soon...if you know members who might want to join, don't be shy to ask!
 
Couldn't we start now? Like we meet, then as the story progresses and others join we add them into the story by helping them out of some problem. Or will all 6 mythicals just randomly meet at once?
 
I had the idea of all of them following wisps of fire (that only they can see) to a location of some sort and they begin to recognize each other. They have all heard of a prophecy when they were little about six mythicals who will rise and save them all, and these mythicals contain more magic than the average mythical.
 
Hmmm, would it be possible that two of them were closer to the meeting place? (Sorry if I sound impatient with these questions, I just really want to start.)
 
I guess I can consider it...but I will have to make the thread after homework.
 
This is my character....
