On the small moon of Artedon, trouble is brewing. To the south, the Goblins rage a seemingly endless war against the Ogres, pushing the Ogres up north, directly into the human lands. The humans, never one to take a threat lying down, pushed back, raging war agains the Ogres on the northern front. The Ogres had no choice but to push east, a great sea lying to their west, and their enemies to the north and south. However, the east was far from tranquil. There, the Elves and Dwarves pushed forward, advancing against the humans.

Alliances were struck, Ogres siding with humans, Goblins siding with Elves and Dwarves, only for it all to break down, and the sides to swap, with Goblins and Humans fighting against the Elves, Dwarves and Ogres. This switching continued for years, lasting almost a lifetime before a ceasefire to this war was called. Five years were given, and if an agreement couldn't be reached by then, then the wars were to continue.

Those five years have elapsed, and no agreement has been reached. None of the factions have been able to recuperate their resources, and so, in a last ditch effort to stop the war, the Otium Counsel was made up, combining delegates from all over Artedon, great soldiers and pompous nobles alike. As the races flocked to Mistbay, an island considered neutral ground, mercanaries and theives also poured in, trying to grasp fame or make a quick buck.

Before the counsel was to meet, it was decided that throwing a group of high ups with highly strung tension, waiting to unleash war, who had never met each other into the same room and expecting them to resolve things was foolish, and it was decided they would hold an event that came to be known as the Otium Ball, to try and encourage the nobles to get along.

As Nobles sail in their opulent boats towards Mistbay, with Mercanaries and Soldiers of Fortune looking for a job on their tales, and cruel theives sneaking around somewhere behind, it is clear that the Otium Ball will be more than just a meet and greet, potentially influencing the entire council. One thing is for sure though. Whatever happens, Artedons future will be molded heavily by these events.

What impact will you leave?


Hello, and welcome to the Legend of Artedon! You may have noticed a sign-up page drifting about, which has now become defunct due to the fact that, well, I posted it to early for something I won't be starting until mid way through June. So, I decided on an interest check instead, just to spread the word.

In the RP, we will (at first) be focusing on the events of the Otium Ball and Counsel. All the races mentioned in the opening post are playable (that is: Human, Elf, Dwarf, Goblin and Ogre) and all are detailed on the Worldbuilding page, along with some other notes on how the world works.

Please, if you're interested, let me know by saying so! Wanna know what numbers I have to work with.

I think it can be developped more, but hey, that's something we do during the RP. It's nice so far. I'm interested.

Just here to point out you're linking to a random post in the worldbuilding thread rather than page one for some reason.

Don't like reading loads of setting details before getting into RP's like this or preparing months in advance, so not interested, sorry.

Also, I realised I had the pothole to the Worldbuilding thread linked to the wrong page, so that's fixed now.
