[ Narrative Prologue
Da Irontuskz Klan first emerged upon the war torn & barbaric lands of Marrak mantled on far away, distant world. A ramble of Green skinned monstrous warriors banding together to pit themselves against the numerous, near countless other Clans & tribes fighting tusk & claw for any scrap of territory. Through relentless brutality, ruthless cunning & the might of iron would they carve through enough adversaries to establish themselves as a proper, respected & feared Clan among the many monsters of Marrak. Proving themselves worthy of great mother Morgorlark, earning the chance to launch raids & wage warfare on any civilization strong enough to be considered a worthwhile adversary.
Unlike the majority of their kin, the promise of ceaseless unbound violence until inevitable death was not enough to sate their ambitions. Focusing their greedy gaze upon strange arcane powers seeping into their world from others. Much to the disapproval & chagrin of the other tribes & clans, even bothering to tinker about on black powder & steam powered technology wielded by men & dwarfs from the northern reaches. Now once the thrill of battle & bloodshed is over, the Irontuskz are filled with another feverish obsession, to get their clawed hands upon any new loot they can. Ever searching for new avenues of power to batter & demolish their foes
Harnessing arcane portals as volatile as they are ancient, known as way gates hidden at the furthest reaches & deepest depths of their own world. The Irontuskz would utilize these unnatural artifacts thanks to a great deal of luck or perhaps interference of the Gods. Securing pathways off world to the many others orbiting a fiery blood sun, so too the moons looming skyward. The influx of chaotic energies disturbing the arcane order would however see many of the exploring warbands thrust onto countless other planes beyond sight or knowledge. Now the menacing wake has arrived, will you join them or raise arms against themโฆ
Under the dark veil of deep night shadowy hulking figures with fiery pits for eyes, accompanied by much smaller hunched over ones might be spotted sneaking & skulking about all across the lands. Bringing with them a disturbing racket, chitinous legs scurrying over walls & rooftops, as a sickly yellow crescent moon ominously looms above all. As day breaks You happened upon tattered, filth & blood stained parchments. The writing upon them almost far too large for the page itself & crudely slashed with dark ink. A very distinctive scent clings to the notes, wood fire, soot & ash. A coppery tinge from the old blood & a strange, potent musk. These notes can be found upon local notice boards, Tavern doors, city sign posts or even hammered to random trees in the wild by mangled iron nails.
- Additional OOC information
Greetings to all role players whether you be veteran writers, hobbyist or green faced newbies!We welcome you all to come & join in creating mythic tales! As a group we have a primary focus on story, character development & engaging other groups in RP conflict arcs. Small skirmishes, battles, even long wars that can last multiple gaming seasons should our stars align. While we in no way have anything against ERP & do regularly engage in such sordid degeneracy ourselves. That is not & never will be our primary goal in RP, preferring it to enhance stories rather than drive them. After a battle is wonโฆ or lost for example.
Our attitude & focus towards RP can be a lot more organized & dedicated than other groups at times. Da Irontuskz Klan certainly isnโt for everyone, however weโre hopeful to find players that enjoy our ways & thrive in with us. As the narrative theme would suggest, uncivilized & barbaric humanoids or monstrous characters are our mainstay & will best fit into the thematics of the Clan.As for the kind of players weโre looking to join our ranks or to engage with in open or organized RP. OOC communication & a good spirit both in victory or defeat is a must, as is coming to the table with everyoneโs enjoyment in heart. The ability to separate yourselves from your character(s) with the motivation to enrich story & RP over all else. We do not tolerate unnecessary drama be it from within us or without, any of that will be swiftly taken care of & removed from the scenarios weโre engaged in.
Should all that sound agreeable & the thematic concept of our Clan excite your minds, please feel free to join our discord with the link provided in this post.
Further note that we have a trial period for would-be recruits who wish to join us that can last anywhere from 3 - 6 days give or take. Dependent on the amount of communication & role play we can engage in. This is for both our benefit & that of any fresh meat, so both parties can assure they have found what theyโre looking for!
