Forbidden Truce, Chapter 3 - an AU RP, OOC Discussion/Sign up Topic.

[Faiyloe]

Ok Here it is Chapter three. The link to Chapters one and two are below.

Forbidden Truce, chapter 1 - An AU RP

   
Forbidden Truce, Chapter 2 - an AU RP, OOC Discussion/Sign up Topic.

Here is a short over view of what has been happening in the past few chapters.

A feud has been going on between the Gretheg and the Lonel Family and their followers for generations now. Things have escalated so much in the past few years so that they now never go out unarmed and when they meet blood is often spilled. Sabotage and revenge are on the rise and many creatures predict a war is coming.

Chapter one - The Gretheg's dam had been burned down along with several of the Lonel's barns. The Lady Garvina was slain in her attempts to escape the Gretheg's after they caught her on there land, leaving her sister The Lady Bryony in charge. Lord Donavin was severely injured in a fight with a insane Weasle (Zuzucath) who after atacking the Lord Donavin's castle headed towards The Lonel's lands with a taste for revenge.

Chapter two - The lady Bryony had taken her men and marched on the castle Syd (Spelling Rachel)(Donavin's castle) When she got there she had talk with Donavin and his brother Lord Orvil. After a short talk she called of the potential war and returned home. Lord Calderoc, Bryony's husband, returned home after travailing, and a young Lonel squirrel maid left home to search for peace and the truth about her parents. Zuzucath seeking revenge set fire to a Gretheg town and the Lonel's castle making sure to make them think it was the others fault. The fires are now put out and each sides unrest is growing while Zuzucath plots more destruction.


Rules Please read one or two have been added.

Rules

- Most characters are kind of gray. There is not clear line of good and bad. 

- There is not species bias. Rats are just as likely to be friendly as mice.

- To be a member of the Lonel family you have to be a squirrel but if you want to be a follower you can be anything you want.

- To be a member of the Gretheg family you have to be an otter but if you want to be a follower you can be anything you want. (inside reason there is more likely to be less squirrels on Gretheg's side and less otters on Lonel's)

- Make your posts count. There is no post minimum just so long as you make each post count. if a post doesn't move the story along, develop plot or develop you character don't post it.

- This is not a Romeo and Juliet! that doesn't mean there cant be a little romance but that is not what this RP is about. There are many directions this RP can go and that is not one of them.

- Start with Two characters and then latter I might up that number.

- If you where in the last chapter you may now take on another character if you would like a new one.

- For a character to continue in this chapter you must resubmit it in this thread to keep things clean and organised. Feel free to update your sheets (Now would be the best time to do that).

- If you are new and would like to join please post here and then PM me and I'll PM you an overview in more detail of the past events.

[Faiyloe]

  That is what you said last time, but don't worry about it. We all have lives. I understand.

[The Skarzs]

Oh, hey; thanks for putting Zuzucath up automatically.

[AbbotAlf0809]

That is what you said last time, but don't worry about it. We all have lives. I understand.

Yes I know but I mean it this time, the THoR series isn't getting anywhere so I can focus on this one

[rachel25]

Thanks for posting Donavin and Orvil, Faiy. I don't think I'll keep Adlais, at least for this round. There's never really anything I can do with him.

[Faiyloe]

Fine you can always bring him back in another chapter and feel free to make another character even if you only intend to use them only in this chapter. That goes with the rest of you. I trust you can pace yourselves and know when to stop. 

[Cornflower MM]

Haha, don't be so sure, Faiy! But nah, I think I'll just stick with my three for this 'un.
