Hello everyone! I'm a new member starting a new roleplay out some ideas I have, and I'm super excited about it! Anyways, the meat:
History
It has been almost five hundred years since the mighty Imperialis Parth'ell collapsed. A mighty empire that ruled the whole of the civilized world without competition, Parth'ell was once extremely advanced in the magical arts: All cities were immediately connected by portals, world hunger was effectively annihilated by the magically-born edible ambrosia tree, peace was known all over Dos Maganon, and it was all powered and serviced by a seemingly all knowing magical being known as The Djinn for hundreds of years.
Then came Parth'ell's darkest day: The Djinn would inexplicably die, for unknown reasons. Within days the Portals deactivated, no mages remained who knew how to work them. The people were trapped by a lack of roads and extreme overgrowth outside the city walls.
Within weeks the Ambrosia trees died, which were their sole source of food. and the people of parth'ell would begin to starve and there was mass chaos.
Within months the empire would collapse, and all cities abandoned. Chaos in the streets and violence would inevitably destroy the scientific journals and artistic writings, setting the people back to the stone age.
Five Hundred years later, the surviving races have formed new nations, and lesser races that were not part of the empire, who were regarded as mere animals, finally have a chance to advance themselves.
Geography
ruins of Parth'ells fortress-outposts are found everywhere, but more often in the lush forests surrounding Dos Maganons only ocean, Aqu Ubra. Aqu Ubra stretches with countless fingerling inlets into the land all the way from the antarctic to the arctic. outside the forests are fantastical sand-dunes that rise like mountains, for as far as the eye can see. This nigh-endless desert is separated from the forests by huge mountain ranges.
Mechanics
Their will be different phases that will contain different rules and guidelines. At first you may create your own races, and this may change as time progresses.
I would like to avoid fandoms here, and encourage originality as much as possible. Of course I see nothing wrong with using a standard race to jump-start ideas, so don't worry about drawing inspiration from other sources.
Thanks for reading, and tell me what you think!
