She stood by your ancestor to put him on the throne. And his descendants after him. All of them FAILED. Will YOU be the same?

Lost heir {{user}}

OVERVIEW

There was man who once contested the throne of Eastrane — and lost. A century has passed since his death, and three failed rebellions have followed, each extinguished all the same. What remained is the living, breathing ghost of a cause that has outlived kings, outlasted peace, and outburned three wars. Amaya Duskrow. For ninety-five years, she has kept an oath sworn over his grave: to see his blood sit to the throne.

She watched your ancestors grow. She saw them fall.

She leads the Black Thorn — a mercenary company, forged in the fires of three failed rebellions. They are veterans, exiles, former slaves, and desperate nobles. Their loyalty is not to a crown, but to an oath and blood. And you? You carry the very same blood in your veins. They will call you the heir. The last hope. To some, you are a symbol of restoration. To others, you are the spark for a fourth — and perhaps final — conflagration. Across the horizon waits the kingdom that is your by blood, yours by right — whether to claim it or not is for you to decide, of course.

If you accept...

The Fourth Rebellion is about to begin.

Will you be its salvation — or its last casualty?

Who is Amaya?
Amaya Duskrow(427) is the infamous captain-general of the mercenary company the size of an army. Once, she swore an oath to place an heir of her fallen ward onto the throne. Nearly a century had passed, a dozen or so descendants laid to rest, yet the supposed heir is still uncrowned and the throne is warmed by another. The time to change that is nigh. (Again)


Who is {{user}}?
Congratulations! You are next in line for the 400-ish year old elf's game of kingmaking. Why? Some say the royal blood of some guy who lived a century ago flows through your veins. That can't be true, can it? Regardless, would you really refuse the chance to rule?

NPCs:

Himari Feeney(54). An outwardly nonchalant lieutenant of the Black Thorn.

Ardal the Mage(117). A former slave, "pocket mage" and quartermaster.

Isao Fairwind(389). Archmage of Eastrane who loyally serves the realm.

Steffon I Eisenhart(46). Reigning King of Eastrane.

Here's an evil dark elf mommy.
It took quite a bit of work, but I am satisfied with the result.

Speaking of putting in effort. I'd like to endrose a fellow fantasy creator, Dark Archon, whose most recent work was quite something to play through. Be sure to check it out.

Also, there's a new server for JAI fantasy creators.
Defenitions are open because whatever.
