Hi guys!

*Hears groaning*

"Hey! Look! I know There are a lot of RP's going up all the time, and that mine usually don't get much turnout, but I just got a really good brainstorm! Some give me a chance!"

;)

Okay, this RP is still kinda secret, but I will be posting updates on this as time passes, I'm kind of just holding a place at the moment because there are a lot of RP's going around, and I want things to settle a bit... For the time being....




BTW, this RP is a bit different from your stereotype Redwall RP.  ;)

"May the speculation, COMMENCE!"

NEED-TO-KNOW!
If you're going to join this RP, you must be 100% committed to finishing it.

This RP takes place so far north, that the sun always shines upon this desert region

Life cycle:
Night only comes once a week, but it lasts for a whole day, on that day, there is a bit
of a festive air about things, and there always seems to be something special going on.
Once a month, on one of the day-long nights, there is an even more important day...
the full moon night, which is accompanied by a feast, and a raising in entrance fees.
Annually, because of the strange placement of the arena, they get a solar eclipse,
upon which entry is free because of the very big events.... at least you can stay for
AWHILE without having to pay the doubled entry fee. It is called the Waning because it
is when they weed out all of the weaker fighters.... By putting all the gladiators
through a series of rough tests, the dead, or too weak are fed to the cannibals that
the "staff" keep around.


The Vermin guard: 16 Ferrets wielding blow darts with a powerful sedative (enough to
kill a weaker beast) and a dagger they guard the arena rings during events (keeping beasts either in or out), any number of stoats and weasels handle crowd
control and bet observance (bets only count if a betting observer witnesses). Wildcats
control the barracks, and keep track of the vermin "staff". There is one forge, it is
run by a wearat, and consists of 1 of every other vermin type there is. The rats are
usually seen as the cell guards, though if a gladiator proves themselves (by earning 25
bone fragments) then they get a free-range gallery policed by Weasels and stoats.


Caste system

-Alpha      (Alpha)
-Delta       (Brute)
-Gamma    (Gladiator)
-Omega    (Warrior)
-Zeta        (Squire)      
-Beta        (Amateur)
-Level 0    (New arrival)

Bone fragments are the way that the fighters can get a day off, increase their status,
eventually being able to get things from the forge, and the ultimate prize
(1,500 fragments) FREEDOM.

There is an Aqueduct from a nearby mountain range that supplies a surprising amount
of water to the arena.

There are only ten Alphas'.

There is a spying group of three beasts: A "staff" member, a regular attender of the
Arena, and a new beast to the Arena (running the thief life, gets caught on purpose).


I need people for all three of those beasts, especially the insurrectionist (the last one listed, his job is to arouse the Gladiators.

The color Green has been abandoned and forbidden, all oasis in the desert have been searched out, defoliated, and replaced with weeds to keep green from growing. Green was banished because of its reference to plants, and might remind the gladiators of home.

Well..... That was weird.  :D

Anyway, if we can get the local RP community to die down a little, I'd LOVE to have this go through. I've spent a lot of time thinking through this thing, and really want to get it up.

Just a quick note here, when you join, I want you to be commited to FINISHING the RP, there is a ridiculous number of topics in the RP section all because of this problem, and it is really dissapointing to see a good RP go down. Return to Moosflower, Infinite Skies, Quest to Castle Floret, The Heart of a Warrior, Off to Mossflower (This one was really sad for me), Castaway, The Summer Solstice, A Traitor among us..... Far too many have gone to the dumps, and I don't want something I've spent over a month working on going into the trash.

Off to Mossflower and Return to Mossflower being the most devastating for me.  :'(
