Eldris is a site that Ratha and I have been working on, and is (along with a lot of schoolwork -_-) the reason for my recent inactivity (sorry about that). Now that it's almost finished, I'll be a lot more active (as long as I get my work done). Anyway, onto the advertisement...
Eldris
About Eldris
Eldris, the roleplay site, is set in a medieval fantasy world called "Eldris". At first it may seem like just another medieval fantasy roleplay site, however, there is one huge difference that sets Eldris apart from other similar roleplay sites; in Eldris, in addition to creating your own character, you can create your own races, artifacts, realms and more! Other than characters, races and simple artifacts, all of these require a certain post count, however, For the first week, Realm Creation is open to everybody, provided they write a good enough roleplay sample.
The world of Eldris is a large island with several smaller islands around it (not all have been chartered yet, and are therefore not shown on the map). Eldris is positioned at the collision point of many currents of sea water, causing many differing climates, and at the meeting point of several tectonic plates, resulting in several locations of mountainous terrain, some of which is volcanic.
Plot of Eldris
(From the point of view of the humans - Credit to Kai II [Ratha])
This is told from the point of view of the Humans which came to the lands they called Eldris. They crossed the seas not much more than 70 years ago. A huge fleet of them arrived on the eastern shores of the land called Eldris. They settled on southern shores of the huge bay they called Todark Bay. They quickly spread. They soon were fishing in the safe shallow waters of the bay, mining the ores in the nearby hills. Logging the forests, farming and putting cattle and sheep on the plains. They made their great fortified port city of Ceris. This they claimed as their capital and a new line of Kings was started. The Ithrininian Kings were the family who lead the people across the sea, and founded the city of Ceris. They also came across with ancient magician's sect of Balkron, a few powerful wizards came with them settling in one of the tallest towers in the Citadel at Ceris.
Ceris was the point where it all had originated from. Now there were towns growing up around it. Farms, ranches. and mines. The Ithrininans grew quickly. With a stream of immigrants coming across the seas they expanded quickly. They all fled the murder and destruction that was the old realm. These people were pioneers fleeing across the sea until one day when nobody came. Then another day, then for weeks and weeks. It stretched into years, no matter how many ships they sent back they never returned. The people were on their own and they made themselves self reliant.
The immigrants set up their own religion, worshipping the God of this new land, he was called Carn or God. People worhipped it’s ideas on monogmy, and godliness. The people never explored to far away, they knew they were not the only people. They had heard the noises at night. Seen shadows. Cattle had gone missing in the night and sailors claimed to see people in the waters. However the Ithininians thrived and soon under their new king, the young and powerful Kai II, they were ready to set off into the world.
Map of Eldris
(Temporary, we will get a new one soon, I believe)
Note: The map does not show everything. The rivers are NOT to scale, they are representitive only. The Rivers on the map are only the biggest there are, may be many others. The forests shown are only the largest, there may be many other smaller woodlands and forest. This gives you a basic look at the size and limits of Eldris.
The Ending
That's all, folks, join us now and create your own characters, races, artifacts, realms and more!
