*ALL of this set-up is original. This is the actual copy of the first game. The sessions will be just as nostalgic, that's why I'm hoping to have some fun with this =D*
Kingdoms of Old
The kingdoms are in ruins. The kings themselves suffer personally while the people wait and watch, unawares of all that exists in the shadows. Most lives their lives normally. You, however, do not.
The Kingdoms
Eastern Alliance:
The eastern alliance is a kingdom of over 12 countries, which makes up more than half of the continent. there is much to be learned from them, for they are considered the lore-keepers of earth. The people in this alliance tend to be peace loving. There are many libraries with in the kingdoms walls, and they contain secrets, long forgotten. Anyone who joins this kingdom recieves a bonus to INT and DEX.
Western Alliance:
The western alliance are hatred filled people, more barbaric than anything. These warriors are not very sophisticated, mongrels at best, but their strength and sheer will to kill makes them deadly to foe large or small. Their kingdoms contain only 5 countries. Although low in numbers, they have been known to defeat enemies 10 times their size. Anyone who joins this kingdom recieves a bonus to STR and END.
Rules
There are three very simple rules within the kingdoms:
1. Killing a person from the same kingdom will raise the alarm that you are a traitor, and is strictly forbidden. Without taking precautions on who you kill, you may be kicked out.
2. Listen to and respect your superiors, weaker or not.
3. Missions are not optional, if you are given a task you are expected to complete it or die doing so.
Stats
Stats are incredibly simple. You start with 1 in each stat and 20 points to spend, and the limit to stats is 50( per stats, not total). In order to increase your stats, you must battle, for there is no currency.
STR- Strength determines melee rolls and damage
DEX- Effects speed and your skill with a bow
INT- Your knowledge and will, more INT means you may be a better stalker, it also means you will be more reluctant to taunting and other teases.
END- Endurance simply effects your health and how long you live
