In the world of Coteras, legends are passed down from family to family of the dreaded Demonkin as to show lessons to children. Each story is meant to keep the people of Coteras away from the Demonkin and the demons whom blood they share. However, for the past few hundred years, the world has forgotten about the existence of these Demonkin and thought only of these people as though they were stories. Nothing more. So the fables became more beloved by children, stories of heroism and greatness for heroes who had slain the demons which tried to take Coteras.
As a member of the Grey, you’ve been with your leader, a woman who goes by the title Seer and predicts events of the future. Her own visions have become full of dread and panic. Fire raining on the green hills of Coteras. From the deserts came a god of old, one who roamed the world in times of dark. From the legends of the demons: Asmodeus. From what the Seer can see, this god will be brought back with the help of five people. Among these five are those of legend: Demonkin. These five will cause the world to go into chaos, ending Coteras.
You, along with others, have been invited to the Seer’s room for a mission which will hopefully stop the end of the world. Your journey will be long and perilous, filled with laughs and tears, but what will happen at the end of this adventure? Will you be seen as the saviors of all the life on Coteras, or will you bring the ruin upon what was once a plentiful world?
Destiny will be shaped by your actions.
This game is high fantasy with minimal technology. The only land to ever devise any high technology is Dederia, which have become a somewhat steampunk-like society. If you wish to try and use some technology, by all means, but please explain how such things would work in a universe where people do not know much about science.
Magic exists in Coteras. If you character is to use magic, please explain how this magic works. If you would like a system or have no idea for one, feel free to ask for one. I would, however, prefer you had an idea of how your own magic worked for your character. Adds more depth to who he or she is.
As far as the world, Coteras is divided into three human kingdoms. The first is the Xillian Empire, an empire which finds that culture is the most prized possession for any man to gain. The Xillian people love art in any form and love looking at civilizations long since forgotten. The Gregorian Empire is a land of people who believe that strength is the key to happiness. All the Gregorian people look to make themselves stronger than the other human empires and, in all else, more powerful than their neighboring civilizations. The last empire, the Dederian empire, looks to make their scholar’s the most brilliant in the world. The people of Dederia love to invent new things and hardly ever rely on magic for their creations.
You can come from these empires or from wherever you wish on their lands, but you will begin in a neutral territory. The city is known as Greyhawk, where the guild you are a part of is stationed.
More will be posted in notes for players! Look forward to playing with everyone!
