Given this is my first (Or second? I dont even remember) Or at least one of my first RP threads, don't expect much. Me being the terrible manager and lazy person I am, I may get confused and mess up from time to time. Welcome to one of my (Hopefully continuable) RP threads, please note that this is a Warhammer fantasy RP, not a Warhammer 40k RP. I made it this because I felt it was more simpler and practical than the ship travelling/weird space magic mumbo jumbo of 40k. I also did it because I feel orks are more suited to the fantasy universe rather than the sci-fi universe. STORY PREMISE: Tis a dark time in the old world. The Empire is on the brink of collapse, chaos warband raids are on the rise, and the empire's borders grow ever weaker. With most of their forces stationed towards the north and near Kislev, their eastern borders have become vulnerable to attack. However, their fallback carries on the ancient Darwven Kingdoms, who lie in the world's edge mountains on the empires eastern borders. Even the dwarves have their own enemies however, mighty hordes of savage greenskins have long plauged the dwarfs and their strongholds, pillaging their villages and slaughtering the populace as the mighty green tide marches ever forth. Latley, however, the greenskins have become rather docile and quiet. Raids have dropped an increasing amount, and hardly any ork sighting has been reported in a few months. Perhaps these are signs of the orks backing down? Maybe they have learned that they simply cannot break through the great dwarven walls and defenses? It could not be further from the truth. While the rest of the world sits behind their stone walls and crowded cities, the greenskins are amassing. A mighty new Ork warboss has emerged and is ready to claim his rightful place as the mightiest ork Warboss that ever lived. So little is known about him so far, even some of the ork troops question his authority, but the good ork warboss knows that a suspecting ork is just as good dead as he is alive. A new WAAAGH!!! Is on the move, collecting troops and resources from local Ork and Goblin tribes. This mighty horde is currently not enough to pass as an invasion force against the empire however, and still requires time and preparation for war. The orks sharpen their choppas, the goblins gather the precious metals needed for the needed equipment, and they are all signs of the approaching green tide. You are a soldier of this mighty WAAAGH!!!, Be they Ork or goblin, it matters not. All greenskins shall answer to the will of the warboss, or die. SETTING: The setting of this RP takes place in your average ork warcamp. However there will be times that you will leave the camp to do duties that will help the war effort. These will either take place in events and missions (Or quests as they are called in this context). This warcamp is placed near the edge of the darklands, just between the darkland border and mount grimfang. It overlooks the silver road that routes straight into dwarven territory. The camp has many notable locations such as the gathering fire where you may converse with other greenskins and share a cup of grog, a blacksmith, the bosses hut where only his lieutenants are allowed entry, and other regular facilities. Many greenskins walk about the place, either getting new equipment, bullying goblins and snotlings (Or vice versa, cunnin gitz) or the occasional brawl. RULES: -You may not create your character as a high ranking/advanced troop, keep it low ranked and simple -Your character may be an Ork OR a Goblin if you wish. (No Gnoblars or Hobgoblins) -No Omni-senses, Your character cannot know what others are thinking, nor does your character know, where they are unless they tell you. Do not do anything that is beyond your characters limitations (For example, your ork character cant challenge the boss and just "win"). -Perma death. If your character finds itself in a situation where death is a certainty, that character is dead for good, no givseys backseys. You may create a new character if you wish however. -Use Parenthesis when speaking out of character -When speaking/performing in character, always put your RP name at the top of what you are writing, this is mainly so I can keep track of who is who -Ork speak/accents are not required although they are reccomended to be performed to the best of your ability (Dont go overboard with it though) -If you DO want your character to become a higher ranked/advanced unit, you will need to earn it through in character means, I will try and do an occasional event where this is possible. RP CLASSES: -Orc Boy -Goblin archer -Savage Orc -Rock lobba (Or siege engine in general) crew -Squig rider (Goblin) -Boar Rider (Ork) -Black Ork -Ork Beserker (Duel wields weapon/No shield) -Night Goblin CHARACTER SHEET: RP Name: Tribe your character is from: (Can be made up if you wish, just be sure its not copied) RP Class: Starting equipment: (Mounts if any as well) 3 Advantages: 3 Disadvantages: 2 or 3 sentences describing the physical look of your character: THINGS TO NOTE: This RP is not ment to align with the fantasy lore in any way or fashion, so there may be a few twists on some things. Also, I will not be directly involved in the RP, I will take the roll of the "Event Master" As I like to call it. I will announce special events/quests through IC means, also I may or may not occasionally take control of a minor character such as a (short lived) prisoner or maybe a wild troll. If you cant think of an ork name then you can try this link, it generates warhammer-esque ork names at random.
