  1. I just noticed. I added it back in. Also note.. As much as I -hate- the white cloaks... with a burning passion, the seanchan I could 100% have done without in the books as a whole. I have 0 interest in writing/plotting in that area. That said, I'm all for someone developing it. I just won't. XD
  2. We're Golden! 😄 Most long-standing RPs are very much like this, and I agree that catering to larger is... exhausting and probably a waste of work. It is 100% why I'm intentionally dropping 95% of the rules and process that Dragonmount developed to accommodate the large numbers we had. It's not worth it. And since WE are the ones here and WE are the ones that want to play, I'm more than happy to cater to us, so long as we keep an open mind when someone else joins with more ideas. After all, we both know that's where the magic in RP happens.
  3. @Wayfarer @Matalina I updated the Poll on the top, feel free to change your choices. @Taymist @Wayward_fool Feel free to weigh in on the poll as well. @Cass and @Elessar as well, as you guys are still writing 😉 We also have sign-ups of @HeavyHalfMoonBlade & @Dar'Jen Ab Owain I have further stuff to add in, but nailing down 1-2 things will help knock us in a direction instead of floating in the 'anywhere time'

  5. I think I am dead-set on the 25 years after the Final Battle, if there are no serious objections. Historically Channelers are the highest # in active characters, so it makes sense to have some options available for those who do. Not just here, but most WoT RP sites. Or at least have that plan in place. It may not appeal to {you, in general terms} but it is something that likely will be jumped on by those who favor Aes Sedai and Asha'man characters. I think the initial idea is that of most of the city nations that the Seanchan took over, Arad Doman is one that functioned the strongest independently, and if that mentality were to grow into those who have taken over the city, chances are there are some defectors from the seanchan side. (It's a possibility XD). Sean Doman was the name rattling in my head. So there is an area in the map below Kandor, above Aridol in carlain grassland (I'm not looking up spelling.. but eh) that would be idea for a new 'borderland' settlement and a potential for all sorts of shenanigans. I agree, with one caveat. What we 'create' will not resonate with everyone, so I do want to be clear and open to other possibilities so even some world-generated information for incoming players will help them pull info for character background but also allow for growth should this do well. 🙂
  6. I tossed some ideas into chatgpt... so it wasn't too centered around my own bias.. and this is what it spat out. It felt fitting to go 25 years after, since DM is 25 years old. XD ECHOS OF THE DRAGON’S PEACE 25 Years After the Final Battle The lands once shaped by the Dragon Reborn now stand at the precipice of a new era. The aftermath of the Last Battle has left scars and opportunities, a fragile peace held together by tenuous threads. In this uncertain landscape, a tale unfolds, weaving together the destinies of nations, magic, and the echoes of the Dragon's Peace. The Two Towers: A Cold War Unveiled With the White Tower undergoing extensive repairs, the seat of Aes Sedai power has temporarily shifted to the Black Tower. The uneasy alliance formed during the Last Battle has devolved into a Cold War, where distrust simmers beneath the surface. The Asha'man, once united, now find themselves entangled in a web of intrigue, political maneuvering, and a struggle for supremacy. The Red Ajah's Rift: Mayene's Crucible The Red Ajah, torn by ideological differences, has split in two. Traditionalists, favoring the established methods of dealing with male channelers, find refuge in Mayene. Here, they contend with both internal strife and the political intricacies of a nation seeking its own identity amidst the chaos. Seanchan's Internal Strife: A Nation Unraveling The Seanchan Empire, once a force to be reckoned with, is now embroiled in internal conflict. The Crystal Throne is contested, with factions vying for control. As the Seanchan struggle for dominance, some of the nations they claimed are seizing the opportunity to reclaim their sovereignty. Arad Doman's Rebirth: A Nation Transformed Arad Doman, forever changed by the events following the Dragon's Peace, has shed its old identity and adopted a new name. As it navigates the challenges of reconstruction and renewal, the nation stands at the forefront of reshaping alliances and forging new paths in this post-Battle world. Borderlands Divided: Malkier's Triumph and Kandor's Fall Malkier, once a symbol of resilience and defiance, has risen from the ashes. The Borderlands celebrate the reclamation of Malkier, but their joy is tempered by the Blight's encroachment into Kandor. The division of the Borderlands threatens the very essence of their united front against the Shadow. Amidst these swirling currents of change, heroes old and new emerge, their destinies intertwined with the fragile peace of the world. As alliances shift, betrayals unfold, and ancient prophecies echo, the wheel of time turns, revealing a future uncertain and ripe with both peril and promise. The echoes of the Dragon's Peace linger, and the world braces for the next chapter in its unfolding saga.
  7. As the Wheel Turns, no writer will live in a stagnant place long before wanting a change. With some changes in Leadership, so are there updates and changes in the Roleplay as well. In addition to fully returning from the Club Structure (iykyk), All Revolution One writing has been shuffled into the Portal Stone Adventures Archive. All Legacy writing from 20 years of Roleplay has been upgraded into the appropriately named Legacy Saga, and is available for those wishing to have that access. For full Roleplay Access come Sign Up, join the the ongoing discussion of where we WANT to go and join A New Beginning.

  9. They are! 😄 I can move that back into biography submissions or active status. 🙂
  10. https://web.archive.org/web/20030522103425/http://www.broken-world.com/overview.php Well, I found a working archived version of broken world. Asha'man are on the up and up. The White Tower is temporarily dissolved. and it's chaos. XD While it's easy to just pick some idea's and run with it. Should we go the new -broken world- route of after the books... What would you want to see? I'll admit, I'd adore having my old Red push the Academy in the FB just for the fun of it... but that's 100% self fan service. XD

  12. It was not the furthest west that she had traveled, however, Josanda had a sense that it was about as far as she would get on this particular journey before she had to return northwest. A pause within the Murandy borders to visit family and her grand-nieces and nephews under the illusion of a traveling relative before returning to the Tower proper. There were White Cloaks rumored far too close to Jehannah and while she still retained far more youth than any other Aes Sedai of her age, it was still impossible to deny that she had the air of confidence that few women who traveled did. They certainly did like to prey on those who held more confidence than their station, regardless of how many journals and quills Josanda traveled with. Complain as much as he did, she did NOT force Aeodan to carry the full weight of her journals. That was his choice and his choice alone. For a Guardsman, he certainly fit the cloak. There were quite a few in the Warder's Yard that learned a sense of humor and after 4 weeks she had yet to find his. It was growing a little frustrating, as a challenge was only a challenge if it were recognized for the game that it was. He just wanted to ensure she stayed alive. Mentally she rolled her eyes as her stray thoughts puzzled out her travel companion. She might have been looking at him the wrong way, or they simply were far too incompatible for him to see that not all Aes Sedai had to follow every stuck-up rule of the Tower. Then again, she was a lowly Brown with middling to low abilities in the One Power and very little political tact to speak of. They could take her from the Farm but not the Farm out of her. The dirt in her skirts would never bother her the way it did many others and it was a bloody shame. The sounds of two men broke through her thoughts, peddlers, bickering over light knew what. It was the unique wares that one of them carried that kept her attention. "Pardon me, Peddler. Are you leaving or arriving in Jehannah? And if arriving where might I browse your wares?" Her wild hair and simple clothes were little more than a traveler's attire. Not even her hand held the telltale marks of her Aes Sedai band anymore, for how little she wore it. For all intent and purpose, she was a simple woman looking to by with unknown depths to her coin purse. Even the Murandy accent still lilted a little despite her more proper verse that the White Tower forced upon her for too many years.

    F.A.Q.s!

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS we know, here are your answers! This is likely an inexhaustible list of commonly asked questions that we hope to have answer to to help with general clarity. With the amount of adjustments and changes we want to ensure that as much clarity on things are as available as possible so you can get to playing! Don't I have to start with a Novice or a Trainee in the Roleplay? Is there Malkier and Manatheren? Two Rivers? Can we play the Chosen/Forsaken? Can we play a Wilder? What is a Development Thread?
  25. I like the idea of tracking 1 vs multiple numbers. though I'm a "track your own" kind of person. I'll do an adjustment in Staff and see how it looks with this. Sill open to other suggestions! ( @Elessar )
