I'm looking for 2 moderators - one to focus mostly on the management, organization, and upkeep of the site when it opens and one to focus on world-building, writing and the plot. Of course both are welcome to cross into other territory, we'll be a team after all.
If you're interested please just tell me a bit about your rp/staffing history and maybe about your history with fantasy? I think we all have at least some exposure but I'm curious about what source material you draw from. Were you a lotr fan? Maybe you're all about GoT right now? Let me know!
Here a bit of a snippet from the main lore of the place. I can tell you more if you'd like! Feel free to ask but this is still very much in it's beta stages.
Long ago dragon and man were at war. Steel clashed against scale, dragonfire melted flesh. Those were the hard times, the dark times. Man was mobile, they moved from place to place as any permanent settlements were quickly burned to the ground or massacred. It was during that time that a sorceress was sent out to plead with the dragons.
She journeyed to their caves where she met the great dragon Kyloth. With Kyloth she bore a son, Rumaleth who was just as great and terrible as his father. With this act she gave birth to a new species - part dragon, part human. And they were just as cruel as the rest of the dragon horde until the birth of Atora the Bright.
Man had grown tougher with time. They killed dragons with more than just luck now. They built bows of ebony and swords of blackened metal that pierced a dragon’s hide when wielded by the right warriors. One such warrior, Lycos the Brave, built a large walled settlement and armed his people and his city with the weapons needed to fell any dragon that came to attack.
The dragons became frenzied and it was Atora who went to investigate the new settlement of man. When Lycos and Atora met they were instantly taken with one another.
It was their union that opened communication between Dragon and Man. Atora, who was able to speak both languages brought together the dragons and the men of the settlement and they have been living side by side ever since.
Thus was born Valhurst, our prosperous city, and the royal line. In each generation one with the soul of a dragon is born. It is he or she alone who has the right to rule.
