Blood, Ice and Fire RP Sign up.

[Lady Ashenwyte]

Hello all, this is the Blood, Ice and Fire RP Sign up. The story goes as follows:
The land of Ice and Snow are a secluded land.But the Oberjarl has died, and the lands of Ice and Snow are in a massive power struggle and the snow is stained red with the blood of the fallen. The wolves, former vassals of the Oberjarl, have taken the chance and have begun a rebellion. The fox, Syde  has begun to form a kingdom, and aspires to be lord of the lands. The slaves and food beasts, observing the chaos, have decided to cast away their lives of fear and have started a full blown rebellin, with new slave "villages" rebelling every day. Due to the power struggle, raids from the lands of Ice and Snow have increased drastically and the northlander kings try to protect their lands, knowing that an invasion of the frozen wastelands would be futile.
However, a discovery made by the mole Burrel, stormpowder has raised the hopes of the northlanders and they form an alliance with themselves and  with the bird kingdom on Mount Icetor. The Jarldom of the wolverines, angered by the rebellions of the slaves and the wolves, try to squash the rebellions, but with only some ermine and foxes to do their bidding, are desperate enough to hire mercenaries from the northlands. What will happen next, is a mystery that may or may not shift the power balance in all of the lands. - Recorder of Redwall Abbey, Treewhiskers.

EDIT: If you want to have two characters, you may!

[Jetthebinturong]

Sounds good, I'll join when I have a suitable character

[Lady Ashenwyte]

It is okay, sign ups are open till next week. (And if there are less than five players, it's open for one more week and that's it.)

[LT Sandpaw]

Hey sound pretty good but I was wondering, Do you read Redwall Revolution in Fan Fiction? Or maybe Highwing's Urthblood series?

BTW I will join and be making my character in a few days.

[Unimaginative]

I'll try to sign up when I have a chance. This reminds me a little of "Lord of the Mountain.". It's to bad that one never got started, I loved the concept.

Also, a late welcome to the forums Lord_Ashenwyte. You shall be known by from now on as Etywnehsa_Drol. Or Ashenwyte. Whichever.  

[Jasper]

I will wait and see how many people are interested in participating. With so many different moving parts and factions, it may be rough to get this RP going smoothly, although it is a great concept otherwise. If we do get enough players for it to work, count me in. 

[Faiyloe]

I agree there are a lot of moving parts I am considering playing a wolf though. Perhaps by making it available to have more than one character it might clear things up. Also adding a chart explaining a bit more clearly about the different factions might help, there life style, there views on society, other peoples views of them and there numbers are just a few things you could add not to mention there personal beliefs and morality.   

[Dannflower Reguba]

       I'm watching this thread, could be a good RP. Is there anything we need to know about stormpowder other than it's gunpowder with a different name?

       .... Heck with it, if Jasper and Faiy are in, then I'm in as well.

[Izeroth]

 I'll join.

Dang, I was thinking of maybe using the Mabon brothers as mercenaries but we can't have two Selwyns. Keep your Welsh wolverine, I shall find some other suitable character

[Unimaginative]

Or we can have fun confusing everyone. 

[Gonff the Mousethief]

I probably will join, but I have a question. Which category do foxes fall under good or bad? And I they are bad, could I have one good?
