RP Name - EquiSomnium
RP url - EquiSomnium.gotnuke.com
Species allowed - "Equoids", which evolved from normal Earth horses in a parallel dimension where equines are the dominant life form. Basically, they are like horses (with the odd... variations
), but have soft fur instead of coarse hair coats (which come in every colour of the spectrum), and clothes, houses - medieval-style technology, pretty much. There are no normal horse breeds such as Morgans and Andalusians, but there are races and cultures indigenous to each land.
And the average lifespan is roughly a hundred years...
Oh, there are also Foo dogs, cabbits and wolvishes, but two are pets and the other... well... they're just plain nasty.
Host - Gotnuke.com
Approximate member number - was 20 in the old yahoo group, but we are moving to a new site so... *shrug* there's at least five of us that are definitely moving with it.
Difficulty - A bit of a complex continuum and we tend to eat one-line posters alive... so intermediate-difficult, I suppose, if you want to jump in quickly. But we'll also help along beginners who are a bit confused but willing to learn.
Activity - can vary, depending on the health and schedules of the players, but at the moment it's kinda hanging around medium level. Though it can get pretty slow at times, we're dedicated and will always be around somewhere plotting something.
Rating - Must be 13 or over to join, but tends to stay around the PG-13 to M15+ level. (not sure about the ratings system, 'cause I'm in Aus...)
Are auditions of some sort required? - Profiles must fit into the continuum, and be approved before the characters can be posted for IC, but it's no big deal. We're pretty flexible. Though we prefer to see some semblance of literacy in our members, of course.
Teachers, Peacekeepers and other positions of power require a sample post and can only be applied for once we've seen you rp-ing a bit.
Is there some sort of plot? If so, what is it? -
We have many sub-plots, but the main overall theme is that, for a start, white horses and pastel colours were wiped out in most of the lands in EquiSomnium. There are several races, the athletic Hyun-Taji of the plains, the power-hungry Mayon of the northern mountains, the educated Prabhati of the eastern cities and towns, and the quiet, giant Foresters of the south (and of course, the mystical Sevati of the Singing Valley, but I'll get to them later), and the Mayon government is going all Nazi and has started decreeing laws and taking actions that make the other races nervous. Raids have increased, with innocent Foresters and Prabhati being captured and sold as slaves in the north, and not long ago several Hyun-Taji clans were attacked, the members killed or taken hostage.
A small group have left the plains to try and unite the lands and fight the expanding northern empire, but they are finding more trouble than they bargained for.
But in the meantime, the schools of magic remain open, life goes on all over the land. You could almost swear war wasn't about to break out after all.
But hidden within the impassable Crystal mountains at the heart of the island continent is a secret. A concealed paradise where the fabled Sevati live - the pastel and white horses thought by most to be no more than fairytale... perhaps the land's last hope?
Is talking allowed? - Oh yes, most definitely.
Are wings and magic powers allowed? - See "talking". Magic is central to our plot.
Are fantasy horses, such as unicorns, allowed? -
Other - White and pastel-coloured horses are only allowed in one area of the game (and you must have been playing with a non-pastel character a while first), otherwise all colours are allowed.
