The city of Daraz. The city of the broken and reborn. The city of new starts. It’s only been about fifteen years since the two gods have arrived and turned the nearly destroyed city around. For the better, too. Back then, the city was crawling with thieves, murderers, and criminals of all kinds. Now the peaceful city faces a whole new challenge. An invasion.
Being the small city it was, no one ever saw the need for an army. Their guards were always on top of their game after all. So when the King of Esceos ordered his army to take the city it didn’t take much for him to take it. All the Daraz were forced into slavery by the people and soldiers he brought over. Some are forced to build his new palace. The temple built for the two gods doesn’t suffice, in his opinion. The days are long, the work is hard, and if they don’t keep up they’re beaten down.
Of course, there is a group of Daraz who have escaped the soldiers and have begun a rebellion underground. Literally, there are pathways under the city that they hide in. They were originally built to bring water into the city, but the river it was connected to dried out years ago. They hope if they can get their gods back they can take back their city. The slaves above them don’t understand why their leaders haven’t heard their pleas. Some have even began to look down on the people that gave them their new start.
Little do they know, the people they worship are not gods at all. Only immortals with too much time on their hands and good intentions. But, there is rumor of Tsila wandering the streets as a human. You never know with these god types.
Rules:
- Usual YWS/SB rules.
- ALL posts must be readable, co-relate to previous posts and have correct spelling. That means no chat speak.
- No minimum word count! Just make sure all posts are more than one paragraph and help advance the plot.
- Swearing; it's allowed just don't overdo it. And keep it reasonable; No F-bombs!
- Romance is allowed but no sex scenes; No one needs to read about details.
- Claim as many characters as you want-- just make sure you can handle them.
- Fantasy creatures are allowed, but not as characters. Don't go crazy with them. Maybe an odd colored lizard or something.
- Don't God-mod. Please, it's not fair. And no Mary/Gary Sues either. They annoy me.
- Please don't double post unless there have been no new posts for at least 24 hours.
- Please have a name and place at the top of each post. Such as Name | Place OR, for example; Mia | Town.
- Please do not kill another person's character without permission; it's unfair, and not to forget mentioning, godmodding. We really don't like that. And besides, no one likes it when they're randomly killed.
-Do note that people will probably die.
- All NON-SB posts to the DT please people.
- The SB is co-run by SisterItaly and ScarlettFire.
Notes To Make
-- Daraz is a city in the middle of a desert.
-- Only a rare few know of the immortals not actually being gods. It’s not common knowledge.
-- The king of Esceos is a power hungry man. He wouldn’t spare you because you have children or because you were a child.
-- Those in the rebellion may be conflicted about saving the gods, seeing as most believe they have abandoned them.
--There may be Eceo who feel bad for the slaves, but none of them would really be in the resistance. Unless of course they plan on becoming Daraz citizens.
-- The king is currently taken over where the gods would have been living. The temple.
-- The temple is much like a palace, but it does/did offer refuge to the ill/injured and people in hiding.
