The Paths of Tragedy

Summary
The Kingdom of Seseu is under attack by the Aldabran Empire. Sir Cairn has been demoted for failing to protect the frontier that divides Aldabra and Seseu, thus allowing the Aldabran Empire to start their conquest on the southwest, where the Kingdom of Seseu is located. So far 1/4 of the Kingdom of Seseu has been conquered, and the imperial army seemed to have gained the upper hand in this battle. The world is once again caught in a spiral of war, hatred and sadness, and the guardians of life watch in disgust as the land is torn apart, thus planning to end the war and the hatred born out of the hearts of humankind once and for all.

You should go with the guidelines for RP bios, but for this RP you only need the minimum requirements for Original RPGs. You can post your own template here, as long as its previously approved by the moderator in charge of this section.

One month of absence equals a "Lost in action" meaning that we will consider that your character suddenly disappeared without explanation. Members can return even if they were "lost in action".

You can join, even if you haven't been part of the "Tales of FFF" RP.

Any rpers can join, regardless of their experience in role plays. If mistakes are made, we will give advise here and besides no one is perfect. Now join! XD

It is advisable to...
-Keep battles between a 10 post limit for personal fights, and 20 for team battles. Not everything in RPs is a fight you know. Also long drawn out battles can kill the fun for others...this IS NOT A RULE, only a recommendation.

-If a member can post for some time, let us be cooperative and add a small summary here, if needed, of everything that has been done so far.

-If you want to leave, post here and make it a big bang finale. Make it cool or dramatic, worthy to remember.

Choosing Sides

For this RP, it is advisable to choose a side between the Aldabran Empire and the Kingdom of Seseu, though choosing a completely original side is acceptable. If you bring an original one, please bring a brief description of your kingdom/empire/city/whatever it is/ of its locations, characteristics, town names, etc.

It is also acceptable to choose your own side, no factions, just you and your own destiny.

The Storyline-Long Version

Two years after the "Tales of FFF" began to unfold, a series of tragedy that had begun many rears before began to come to the light of public knowledge. The Silverwing Household, devastated after the disappearance of its lords, the last heirs of the Silverwing Family. The Kingdom of Aldabra, now taken by Civil War, faced a year of war between the few remaining feudal lords that fought for the control of the kingdom, one of them being Maximilian Regisheart. Although they never came up with an agreement, the government of the kingdom, now an empire was settle, with the election of Lord Maximilian as the new emperor of the newly born Aldabran Empire. A year after, based on rumors about a possible attack from the Kingdom of Seseu, the council and the senate of the Empire advised Lord Maximilian to order a an attack on the frontier, a full scale assault to the Helena Fortress, a place guarded by Sir Cairn Rosencrant. The fortress was taken, thus ending in the expansion of the Aldabran Empire over the few area to the southwest of their vast empire, controlling the northeastern territories of the Kingdom of Seseau, thus igniting the war that would last for 3 years, ending in the demise of the Aldabran Empire.

Our story begins within the 3 years of War, when Sir Cairn was demoted from his position of head of the Aleria Guard, due to his failure at defending the Aldabra-Seseu frontier, and for losing the Fortress of Helena to the aldabrans. The menacing armies of the Aldabran Empire had almost gained control of 1/4 of the Kingdom of Seseu, having Seseu on the verge of collapse and soon to be conquered if nothing is done.

Over the years, men and other mythical beasts have spoken of an ancient prophesy: "When the world is torn apart by war and greed, our time to pass judgment on these mortal beings will come. Under a cataclysm of fire and pain thou shall perish, brought by the demon born of thy hatred" Many ignored the meaning of this prophesy, other had thought of it as a mere fairy tale. What are these beings that will pass judgment on this world? Who is this "demon" they mention? Our answers lies within the pages of a long forgotten story....

The Kingdom of Seseu
The Kingdom of Seseu was established four years after the birth of the Aldabran Kingdom now Empire (for reference to Aldabra, check the biographies of Julius, Maximilian and Lucius). It was created to unify the region of Sesau, once torn by conflict between Clans. Lord Balian and his household accomplish to unite the land, bringing an era of peace and prosperity for the people of Seseu. Without losing much time, Lord Balian established a Peace Treaty with Aldabra, and thus their trading and friendly cooperation between kingdoms was born.

The Kingdom of Sesau is mainly forests and fields, with a desert to the south, the Malthian Sea to the west from where travelers arrive to the port town of Vaid, a commercial city ruled by governor Taden Almeria, the city of Vaid being the central point of traders, inns, a Colosseum and the lands largest port for transport by sea and air. The other parts of Sesau are the forest of Nadian, famous for its abundant flora and fauna and for hiding the secrets of the Ancient Temple within its woods, the ice forest of Dian, a forest whose greener was covered of a place overrun with pine trees, ever green watchers of this not fully explored, ice region. The forest of Dian is said to be magical, and its the home of the elves. The mountainous region of Seseau begins to the northwest of the land, with the high cliffs of Milian, an abandoned region overrun with monsters and has little to zero vegetation, the ice peaks of Laen to the north serving as a natural frontier that makes it hard for invaders to pass through this area, the Ohen Canyon, and seemingly bottomless hole that leads to the underground Salek Mines, guarded by the dwarves. The Helena Fortress to the southwest, surrounded by a series of mountains that make the path of the Fortress of Helena the only way to access Seseu by land. Many other villages and towns are scattered through the land of Seseu, the most important being the city of Palacious, the largest city of the Kingdom of Seseu, famous for its unique beauty and for being the center of the kingdom, having the Saleria Castle. The Saleria Castle is large, having over 50 rooms distributed between the lower levels for the soldiers and their training facilities, the mid-levels having the main hall, the kitchen, the library and the courtyard outside, and the upper levels being the throne room, and the chambers of the high ranking general and commanders, and guests, as well as the last floor being the chambers of the royal family. The ballroom is located to the south of the castle, connected by a passageway of beautiful fountains and gardens.
The Paths of Tragedy Background Story:

17 years before the birth of Julius...
Cairn Crey Rosencrant Valthere was born on April the 3rd, during the year of our Lord Balian on 1487. Being born of a family of knights, Cairn was raised as a honorable man. His parents, Lord Victor Rosencrant Lancaster and Irene Valthere Isaldir, were renowned for their influence in society, mainly his father from being a member of the Aleria Guard, Lord Balian's personal body guard. The kingdom of Sesau, located to the northeast of Albabra, is ruled by the Aldamith Family, Lord Balian being the head of the household.

Being born a privileged child, Cairn did not allow his status to tarnish the honor of being humble, so he spent much of his time with other soldiers rather than staying at home. As the years passed, Cairn became experienced in all sorts of skills, developing many abilities and soon becoming head of the Aleria Guard himself, when his father opted for retirement. Sadly, the good times were soon to be gone, for a tragedy would stain Cairn's life.

On a mission in which they were assigned to defend the borderline between Aldabra and Sesau, Cairn faced the advancing Aldabran Armies and kept his ground for as long as he could. Even though he did all he could, there was a factor he did not foresee: betrayal. His friend Charles Masia, a former captain and now sworn enemy, handed down the frontier fortress and blamed Cairn for it. Cairn faced trial and was stripped of his position as head of the Aleria Guard, thus falling in disgrace. Swearing he would clean his name, Cairn now sets on a journey to proof his innocence and gain the life he lost...

The Tragic Events that sealed the fates of the "Silverwing Twins"

Julius...
Being the first born son and Lucius'twin, the heirs of the Silverwing Family which has been highly involved with military activities since it was established, Julius was trained in the Arts of Swordsmanship since he was five years old not having the opportunity to socialize with people of his age becoming one of the main reasons of why he is so antisocial. After becoming captain of a small unit at the age of fifteen thanks to his excellent leadership capabilities, Julius has experienced both the advantages and disadvantages of war, and earned the fame of being quite cold with both friends and foes alike. Strange though, Julius has the tendency of becoming quite a sentimental guy every time he is near the person he cares about, the daughter of his father’s best friend. Unfortunately, Julius is not good when dealing with deceptions and has the tendency of blaming himself for everything negative that happens all around him, one of the main reasons why his father fears him, because Julius can be quite cruel once he begins to hate himself. His mother's name is Lady
Lady Irene Loyalheart and his father is Lord Alexander Mathias Silverwing.

On that same timeline Lucius story began to unfold....
Much after Lady Irene Loyalheart gave birth to Julius, another child was born, and he was named Lucius. Being the exact opposite of Julius, Lucius was a rather cheerful young boy until he was 15 years old. After that he meets a certain girl that changed his life. He fell in love with that girl but was greatly devastated after discovering that she already loved another man. This brought a deepening hatred to develop inside Lucius' heart which was great enough to draw the darkness to him. One day, an evil spirit tried to fight its way inside Julius’ heart, but it plans were foiled by Lucius. Turning his dark curse on the young man, the dark spirit inhabited Lucius’ mind, which was already poisoned, and turned him into the ruthless tyrant he is now.
A year after Julius and Lucius were born....

Since he was born, Maximilian was destined for the greatness. Being part of one of the wealthiest families, Maximilian was trained by the best warriors and was tutored by the greatest of scholars. As a result, he became highly intelligent and had many objectives such as becoming a renowned scholar since the tender age of 11. Even though he was raised as a king, Maximilian’s heart was empty and his soul was dry. He never had the chance to make any friends thus becoming a cold hearted young man. Suddenly he meets his “true” friends at the age of 16, and among these friends he fell in love with Dareisha. Sadly, he never had the chance to confess his love to her before she was sent to another state. Tormented by his lack of courage and the hatred he felt towards his cowardice, Maximilian entered a state of self destructive mood. His friends were forced to leave him behind due to life issues and thus causing much sadness to Maximilian. As a result, Maximilian blames himself for not being able to confess his love to Dareisha and bid farewell to his friends. In a desperate search for answers of why he was not able to fully express his feelings, Maximilian cursed himself, “love” and “friendship, and ended up sealing his sad fate, to walk alone without feeling “true love” once again.

I accept your invitation. I only have one question: Can we remain seperate from all kingdoms? I'll be using Jake and Hera Ledro.

It's just that it goes against Hera and Jake's beliefs to really give allegiance to one faction in a conflict that does not directly involve them. Woul it be possible for Jake and Hera to remain outside of loyalties? I don't want to start my own kingdom, either.
 
Julius is it ok for me and another fairly experienced rpers to join if we make any mistakes please discipline me.
Also do you have to have been part of the tales of fff rp to join.
 
Well then.
this will be interesting.
And hopefully I will do my part ^^

I will remain neutral, and perhaps choose a side in game.
I will be using Jonad Sizoc the widely known healer.

Yes, I am aware that he will see little battle, if any. ^^
 
I added a summary at the beginning since I realized the storyline is quite....LONG.

*Neutral Side has been added as well.

Oh and Welcome Red Fox ^_^ Good to see your healer is joining. I've never rped with a healer character.
 
Nor have I ^^
it can be interesting
Especially his reactions if he tries to heal Hera's characters
Since the self heal might beat him to it ^^

EDIT:
Note, that I have edited Jonad slightly
mainly added his "pill box" and a picture pf the surgery tools.
