Some of you might recognize this plot. My first storybook. :D

Plot:

The Greater Daemon of Tzeentch (Chaos Ruler of change,) has recovered his staff of magic. Now as he again rules over all chaos magic he will not repeat his mistakes, which formed his last downfall... this time he has an ally: The Greater Daemon of Slanessh (Ruler of pleasure and keeper of secrets). Now the two Daemon Lords have united all the other Chaos (Khorne ruler of war and Nurgle Father of decease) under their rule and are trying to persuade the dark elves to join them as well.

At the same time the Vampire counts have at long last found the secret of the book of the dead and have taken over all the undead, now the undead armies march to the old world to serve their new masters.

Also the orcs and goblins are on the move, their goal is, like it has always been: to fight.

Now the dwarfs are still having a grudge against all Elven and most of all they want the downfall of the orcks.
The empire has started a war against the Brettons.

Now a group of heroes must both destroy the chaos and the leader of the vampire counts: Count Von carlstein. And at the same time try and convinse the dwarfs and elves to help them.

Mission of chaos: Destroy.
Mission of Vampires: Rule the world.
Mission of Orcs: Fight.


Sides:

Empire (humans, Germanic, early renaissance, spellcasters are either priests of sigmar or wizards) can be divided into groups: Witch hunters, soldiers, nobles and commoners.

Brettonnia (humans, (knights etc, a medieval society, spell-casters are priestesses of the Lady of the Lake whom is their queen and is worshipped as a god) Knight and peasant based armies.

Vampire counts (vampires) All their soldiers are mindless undead, so if you want to play with them you must be a sorcerer or a noble whom are vampires)

Elves, groups are: High elves (cocky and like dragons),
Wood elves (Protect their sacred woods.) and
Dark elves (Torture is their favorite hobby, Spellcasters are Sorceress's)

Dwarfs (Do I even have to explain? They have no spellcasters. Runesmiths craft powerful items and block magic)

Orcs and Goblins (Division of power: at the top Black orcs, then come normal Orcs, then Goblins, last and least Snottlings.)

Chaos (Beast of Chaos [Hairy beasts and such], and Daemons of Chaos [daemons are manifestations of the four chaos powers : Tzeentch, Nurgle, Khorne, and Slanessh ] and Warriors of Chaos[Humans with inhumane powers] .



Rules: -No God-Modding
-Keep other characters in character.
-Keep it PG-13.
-No killing other characters without the creator’s or my permission.
-No more than three characters per person.
-Try to keep the ‘teams/groups’ even. If there are already 7 people in one group, pick another one.

Name: Talon Nimhedu

Race: High Elf

Nation: Ulthuan - Nagyrthe

Class: Shadow Mage of Nagyrthe

Wargear: wooden staff, black cloak and dark clothing - no armour, practiced the high magic, shadow magic and basic wood elf magic.

Appearance: fair hair, tall and willowy. Green eyes and a hesitant smile. Often hides himself in robes and cloaks.

Personality: Dour and hard, does not suffer fools but values worthy allies.

Background: Having spent his life in the war-torn region of Nagarythe, Talon has grown cold fighting in endless wars against his mad cousins the Dark Druchii Elves. Eventually he found he could not fight his lost brethren any longer and fearing he would become like they if he was forced to, he left his homeland. Aware that the Dark Elves garnered much of their power from the forces of Chaos, Talon vowed to hunt down the powers behind the madness of his bloodline. He stayed a time with the wood elves, learning something of their magic, but moved north when the drums of war began to sound in the empire. Above all he despises Slaanesh for corrupting the Druchii and Tzeentch for its corruption of natural magical forces.

*Currently residing in Altdorf, the capital of the Empire, in the elven quarter.*


There's loads of info on the warhammer universe around, just google it for ideas.
So you're going to kill a god. Sure. But what happens next?

Oh how i miss young writers society... used to love storybooks. Now i make my return lol.


name: Coden Desaret

race: Human (gotta have one somewhere)

nation: Brettonnia

class: warrior/ mercenary

wargear: prefers a basic broadsword, but has a large spear strapped to his back that he only pulls out in bad situations. Sword has no real significance, but the spear was created by the dwarves with assistance from one of the priestesses, a rare occurrence. Extremely light-weight and indestructible, it is the perfect weapon for him.

age: 20

appearance: Tall and broad-shouldered, with straight black hair just above his shoulders. Piercing brown eyes and light skin. prefers lighter armor so he can move fast. Usually wearing a light leather tunic and thick hide leggings.

personality: Quiet and withdrawn, he usually speaks with his actions rather than his words. Most people mistake him as a mute; those he speaks with usually have great importance to him. His eyes are his greatest communicator. When he does express himself, he is kind and soft, but bows to no one and looks as no person as inferior or superior.

Background: His family was a basic farmers, but had to defend constantly against bandits. Learned fighting from his father. Parents still alive, but taken in captive by the orcs to use as slaves. He has since then been a mercenary earning money and looking up information on the whereabouts of his parents. Has gained relations with several races, and is sometimes used as mediators between contentious elves, dwarves,and humans.
if you were to die today, would you be able to tell yourself that you did everything you wanted and everything you could?

I have edited his profile but can i keep his background.

Name: Louis de Pointe du Lac

Race:vampire

Nation: vampire court

Wargear:he has no armor, just his teeth

Appearance:

Background: Louis de Pointe du Lac was born in France on October fourth in the year 1766, to a Roman Catholic family who emigrated to North America when he was very young. His mother, sister and brother, Paul, lived just outside New Orleans on one of their two indigo plantations, named Pointe du Lac after the family. This was the place where Louis' brother died, after a terrible quarrel with Louis. Louis had always thought that he was to blame and never got over the guilt of his brother's death. He became self-destructive, cynical and desperate, and longed for the release of death, but lacked the courage to commit suicide. He took to frequenting taverns, whore houses and other places of ill repute. He got into fights and duels in order that someone might make the decision for him and kill him to end his misery.

Unfortunately this isn't Interview with a Vampire, nor even an alt-earth setting - it's a fantasy storybook, Vampires here are generally quite old and decent magic users, but there is no "France" nor 18th century to speak of. The leader of the vampires here would probably be a Von Carstein, and may have to be an NPC as one of the quests will be to defeat him and we dont like killing player characers,
Cheerio,

So you're going to kill a god. Sure. But what happens next?

Carstein is the leader, but your charrachter could be a close relation of his. Ensuring him a high role.

*Can I still join?*

name: Nightshade (Shade for short) his second (chaos) name is Wrath
gender: male
age: 17
race: crossbreed. his father was a high elf, his mother was a daemon/chaos warrior hybrid.
nation: unaffiliated, wanderer
affinity: neutral, he has yet to commit to a side
class: thief/assassin
war gear: - lightweight black leather amour
- a pair of scimitars
- assorted daggers, throwing stars, projectile weapons
- various magical charms
- longbow
- animal familiar, a leopard spotted cat/fox thing, named Dusk

Dusk's picture- http://sandy87.deviantart.com/art/Da-Muse-6873350

appearance: http://media.photobucket.com/image/elf% ... y.jpg?o=62 looks like his elf father, but with more exotic features and coloring.

personality: The best way to describe Shade is intense. Arrogant, graceful, and passionate, he has a temper, but years of experience have taught him to think with his head. Shade treats everyone he meets with some degree of mistrust. He lives by his own code and has survived alone for much of his life. Because of his confusing ancestry he isn't completely on either side. He's too good to be evil, but too evil to be good. This puts him in a confusing position. More then that, neither side is really willing to trust him. The rest of his personality will be revealed with time.

background: His mother raised him until he was four before sending him to his father. Who proceeded to abuse and neglect him, viewing him as proof of the biggest mistake of his life. By the time Shade was seven it had become apparent that he had inherited not only his fathers elven powers but his mother's chaos powers as well. Giving him governance over any natural disasters, his powers are largely elemental by nature.

When he was eight he ran away, casting aside the hypocrisy of the elves world, along with the open brutality of the chaos world. He has lived on his own ever since, trusting only Dusk. Having only ever seen the worst the world has to off Shade has lost faith in the races as a whole. However, believing others shouldn't be burdened with the darker truths of life, he does occasionally show flashes of being a hero. Though he bears a personal grudge against elves as a whole, and high elves in particular.

other: Up for love, but you've got your work cut out for you. Although neither side trust him they're aware his unique abilities make him an extremely desirable ally. Whether or not he is willing to work for them. Remarkably, Shade loves children of all ages and is extremely protective of them.

Name: Tasis

Race: Human (technically)

Nation: Chaos

Class: Chosen

Wargear: Two handed mace, chaos armour

Appearance: http://childwithheadphones.deviantart.c ... h-57750452
Personality: More than a little insane, a direct result of his worship of Tzeentch. He is nonetheless very cunning, as befits a warrior of the god of change, and despite the apparent crudeness of his choice of weapon, relies heavily on tactics to win a battle.

Background: He was born to one of the Nordic tribes, but his potential as more than a mere warrior was quickly realised, and his great-grandfather's suit of armour was handed down to him when he reached the physical capacity to wear it. He soon left his village as the right hand man of a sorcerer dedicated to Tzeentch, who was later to become the god's mortal general.

Name: Kurt Miebach

Race: Human

Nation: Empire

Class: Witch Hunter

Wargear: Double barrelled pistol and longsword

Appearance: http://b13.deviantart.com/art/Inquisitor-45357820

Personality: He remains reserved and grim at all times, disliking getting to close to anyone because of his line of work - it either endangers them, or they become a target of his. He appears to have no qualms about killing even those he knows well if they become 'corrupted', but in truth the faces of those he has been forced to kill haunt him almost constantly.

Background: His town - to the north of the empire - was attacked in a chaos raid early in his life. Their preparation for such an event, as well as the fact that a small detachment of soldiers of the Empire were present at the time, allowed them to repel the raid, although Kurt's parents were killed and his farm burned to the ground in the process. As he had nowhere else to go, a priest of Sigmar among the detachment adopted him. When it became clear that he wasn't destined for the order, however, he was turned over to the Inquisition for training, his ingrained hatred of chaos making him ideal for their work (if that's okay, Empire was never really my field so I'm not sure how accurate that is).
He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt. - Yossarian, Catch-22
