lore & setting

The land of Eldervare is split in two by the Chasm. The northern half is occupied by Valus, the human kingdom that settled here a little over two-hundred years ago. Magic is feared within their walls, thinking it all to be malevolent and dark. They know only vaguely of the fae, but associate them the same way they view the monstrosities that both lure others in and crawl out of the abyss. Expansion is growing to be necessary though with resources running out, and the Holy Queen wanting to see what lies beyond the chasm.In the southern half of Eldervare lies Alfheim, Faerieland. Though it is split between five courts, the Suncourt, Mooncourt, Pearlcourt, Mistcourt, and Rootcourt, the Sovereign Monarch rules over them all from the throne of the Suncourt. Humans have been just an annoyance or slight entertainment in their eyes.There are faerie circles between both kingdoms where fae can easily transport themselves. Considering Valus' brutal, deadly ways of dealing with the unknown, they often are disguised as humans. Humankind knows well enough to avoid such faerie circles though. Several humans have gone missing and never seen again after stepping inside one.

character info

Players will be able to pick between their characters being faerie, half-fae, or human. Each option has differing stat bonuses. The characters must keep in mind the lore surrounding them, meaning humans would not know all the history and lore that faeries do and vice versa. If you want your human character to have knowledge of Faerieland, consult the mods.∘₊✧──────✧₊∘Faeries are very magical creatures and have varying appearances, from traditional faerie wings, animalistic characteristics, or nature growing on their bodies. They live much longer than humans do, though they mature into adulthood at the same rate. They’re also able to use magic, from elemental spells to minor enchantments. With this gift comes a flaw, however: they are unable to lie, are bound to their words, and are weak to iron, rowan, and salt.Humans live typical human lifespans and for the most part are born with natural color palettes. They are unaffected by the power of words that faeries are sworn by, and can lie to their hearts content. They are often physically stronger than fae. While they are susceptible to Faerie enthrallments they also have ways to get around it, from iron and rowan charms to the salt within their own blood.Half-fae/Half-humans are uncommon, though not unheard of. They’re distrusted and feared by humans, and treated as a joke in Alfheim. Faerie traits are often strong, so most half-fae show signs of their fae parent. Some are lucky and can hide these traits. Obvious half-fae have a choice of joining the army at Houndswall or execution… so not really much of a choice at all. They share all the same weaknesses of their fae parent, but also share an ability to use magic.

Rules:
- Do not join if you’re under 18.
- No racism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry in general.- Please communicate your concerns clearly. If something happens with another player that can’t be resolved privately, or you’re concerned about something else within the server, feel free to bring it up with a mod. I promise we don’t bite.- Do not overstep boundaries with people AND their characters. If someone doesn’t want you to do something with their oc, such as forceshipping or sexualizing them, please respect their wishes.- Please separate the character interactions from the player themselves. A character being hostile and rude doesn’t mean that the player themself is hostile and rude; it’s a fictional character. As much as we encourage fictional drama, we also still want people to be comfortable, so if you feel that it’s too much or going overboard don’t hesitate to say something. The only thing I ask is that you don’t assume a player has a problem with you based off their fictional character’s actions.- Do not godmod.- No explicit NSFW in SFW channels. Take into account other’s comfortability.- No slavery. No, faeries do not keep slaves. It’s unfortunate that I have to make this a clear rule, but just in case.- Respect triggers. Censor as necessary, or avoid mentioning it altogether at best.- No AI art is allowed whatsoever.- After 48 hours of no response, other players are allowed to skip your turn and continue until they reach your turn again. This is for the sake of getting through interactions and quests without dragging it on, and taking into account everybody’s time.While the number one goal of this server is to have fun, please keep in mind that this is a story based roleplay, heavy with plot. It’s alright to be a casual player, but be aware that this is based off Dungeon and Dragons campaigns where it is an investment in attention and time. Please do not apply if you’re going to ghost after a week.∘₊✧──────✧₊∘Character Rules- There is a 2 character limit in the beginning. You only need to apply with one, but it’s still a good idea to let a mod review your character even if you aren’t filling out an application for them. As the server goes on and we get to know each other, you’ll be allowed to create more characters.- Human characters must adhere to human ages, unless they’re magically altered within the rp.- The oldest your faerie character can be, for the sake of not knowing all lore and world info, is 300 years old.- You are allowed to make child characters, but please remember their age when playing them.- Height limit is 7 ft. Some fae are uncannily tall.- Your characters will not die in the rp unless we are given permission to do so.∘₊✧──────✧₊∘Content WarningsThis server is inspired by dark medieval fantasy and fairytales, so there will be some darker themes and descriptions. Such topics include: Blood, murder, lightly described gore, cults, and war. While explicit NSFW is not allowed, there will be mentions of sexual topics (prudes are hard to find in Faerieland).
