RolePlayGateway?


The long and short of this players wanted ad is that I need role players who are dedicated to finishing any RP they become a part of. This RP has slowed to a dangerously slow crawl right now because of flaky and uncommitted players who promised me they'd be able to post consistently, but who ultimately lied to me about their ability and their commitment. I need players who will create a strong character and stick with them. I realize the RP's size, as well as the scope of the battle which the characters right now find themselves in, are both quite daunting. However, I need players who will not shy away from the challenges which the RP holds and who will be able to stick with it for as long as possible. As it stands, the players who made that promise to me ended up disappearing after about three weeks in the RP, if that.

So, if you are a strong and dedicated player who enjoys fantasy stories about Dragons and Dragon Riders, then please click the link at the top of the page to visit the RP's main page and see for yourself what you're getting into.


The RP itself takes place primarily on the continent of Da'lThrea. The continent itself is about 9,500 miles from east to west. To give some scale, the planet Earth is about 8,000 miles around at the equator. This continent is longer than the Earth is around by approximately 1,500 miles. Its tallest mountain is the Dragon's Crown which is over 4 miles in height where the Master of Dragon's Crown resides as he watches over the world below, and watches over the few Dragons which remain as they await the arrival of their Chosen who will become Dragon Riders.

Da'lThrea supports a number of varying humanoid species and is a medieval style fantasy RP where the gun has yet to be invented (and no, you will not be the one to invent it). The crossbow is the most complex weapon which exists in the RP, if you don't count the catapult, and the sword of the weapon of choice for almost all who take to the battlefield. However, all manner of weaponry and skill sets to match can be found within the world our characters inhabit. The combat and throwing knife/dagger, the bow and arrow, the sword and shield, bo staff and spear, poison tipped darts and needles, magic of all kinds... It's all here.


There is a very large selection of Dragons with which to choose from to begin your journey as a Dragon Rider. These Dragons range in size from human sized to the size of a small mountain, and are as varied in colors and shapes as they are in size. Some of them use ice attacks, some use fire. Some use telekinetic power, some avoid conflict all together. The Dragons of this RP are mysterious and highly endangered as a species. For several centuries now Dragon Riders have not existed, and the might of their order has been since forgotten to time by all except the Dragons which remain, and those who reside in the mountain cities in and around the Dragon's Crown.

There is also the option to design your own Dragon using any image you can find online as the basis for what it looks like and how it lives. Whether it uses an ice type breath or fire, whether its wings are scaly or feathered, whether it avoids or searches for combat, what color it is, how long its expected life span is... All of this is up to you if you so desire. There is a list of criteria which you must conform to when designing your Dragon, but it's very straightforward and easy to understand.

There are quite a few races which exist in the RP, and they are as follows:

Humans, Elves, Jumentai, Dwarves, Nymphs, Faeries, Merfolk, Avian, Demon, Angel, Necros, Necromancer, Centaur, Orc, Ogre and Dragon Spawn.

Because of the nature of the RP and the lore which I have designed for it, Necros, Necromancers, Centaur, Orcs and Ogres are not playable races. They exist solely as enemies, or in the case of the Centaur, a neutral race which will avoid contact with others if at all possible. There are several differences between my version of these creatures and races than what you may otherwise be familiar with, so I will explain for those who are confused as to why such a race as a Necromancer is considered only to be an enemy worthy feature of the RP.

Necromancers are undead sorcerers who can bring to life the undead to fight for them, and it doesn't matter which kind of undead we're talking about. If it can find the remains of a Dragon, it will lift its bones from beyond the grave if it means a powerful new servant. The Necromancers can live as long as the magic which revived them remains potent and active. If they manage to manipulate the magic which brought them to life with their own, they can live indefinitely unless they are destroyed outright. To this end, they are unplayable. Necros are basically a term used to define those which were brought back from the dead by a Necromancer, and thus they are unplayable. Centaurs cannot ride Dragons, so they're out. Orcs and Ogres are rather foul beasts by nature in this RP, and a proud creature such as a Dragon wouldn't even let one approach, let alone ride it.
