The realm of Vestrya has been at peace for as long as anyone can remember under the rule of King Harlus. Commonly referred to as “King Harlus The Good”, he brought peace to Vestrya, uniting everyone together, he was even able to bring peace to the warring Elven clans.
So when you have a dream, where the goddess Alaria speaks to you, telling you Vestrya is going to need your help because the peace is coming to an end and fate says your one of the few destined to save it. She speaks in riddles about you and some others who are to become fabled heroes of Vestryan lore. She directs you to be sure you attend this years Great Games.
You wish to pass this off as just a dream, but you also feel something real about it. Whether you understand it or not, you decide to attend this years games and see for yourself if the dream means anything.

Narrator Notes
Okay so somehow this randomly popped into my head and I just HAD to make a game. That said, as per usual with my style I sort of have a loose outline of stuff and more or less make it up as I go, playing off the players at times.
I want this to remain fairly traditional, you’ll have the overall end goal your trying to get to, and be sent on side quests and such in between. Like I said, I don’t have much planned, say no more than what I have planned for the start and some idea of who causes it.
The main things I ask are that you use a provided nature, and make your own Strength, Weakness, Subplot. Also include pictures on your cards and characters…I am kinda picky about that.
As for speed, I set it to casual. I know things happen and I myself sometimes drift off for a couple days. I generally like to try for a scene a week until we find our own groove. As long as you can move once or twice a week, that should be fine. If I don’t see or hear from you within a week, I’ll poke you to see whats up. I’m not against moving along if someone is taking a really long time. (I think 2 weeks of hearing nothing is more than fair.)
Your character can be from anywhere. Feel free to make up some random town I didn’t list as major if you like, but you will be at the Great Games in the capital city as instructed by your dream.
And I hope it goes without saying, no OP characters, being powerful is fine, but your not Superman.
Also, no Orcs. Just don’t feel like including Orcs into the lore. Dragons as well, too much stuff with dragons.
So yeah…I guess let’s see what happens.
Probably start taking apps on Friday/Saturday.
