[[http://s1.zetaboards.com/WarOfDiscord/index War Of Discord]] is a [[PlayByPostGames Play By Post Roleplaying Game]] set in an original fantasy world. It places an emphasis on writing, and doesn't have a battle system, instead letting the players decide the flow of battle against enemies on their own, and letting battles between characters be decided by the better writer, though battles are strictly watched to prevent [[GodModders Godmodding]].
The site was founded September 2011, and there is a [[http://s1.zetaboards.com/WarOfDiscord/topic/4562446/1/#new Table of Contents]] to help readers find their way around the RP. In December of 2011, the board was closed to new members due to the heavy emphasis on the already existing characters, which would make it difficult for new members to get their characters in, though a few there have been a few new members since.
The RP is a HeroicFantasy setting, with the plot being that two countries with a long rivalry have gone to war, with a third country hiring two mercenary teams and sending one into each country to see if there was an outside cause. Of course, the two groups can't even make to their destinations without being interrupted by bandits, demons, kidnappers, half-orcs, and vampires, with things just getting worse once the actually arrive in the two warring nations.
(Since about January 2013, this site has been dead due to lack of activity, and probably will not pick back up in the future.)
