This is my first time making one of these, so it might not be good but i did take a long time creating a story and trying to translate it into a open and free scenario. Im going to try and update this frequently.

World Context: Everone lives in a Meritocratic Hegemony where village-states compete via the Trial of Consensus for the leader.(were the out of the strongest pf every village one person is elected). The magic in this universe is vast, you can cast anything you imagine, the only downside is learning and creating magic is hard. The Hub: The characters are currently stationed at a large village training to be soldiers. The world is wide—mercenary hideouts, ancient ruins, and other villages are reachable. The Main Characters:

Jae female (a secret.1 second Time-Stop , mage first - melee combat second, with pure white hair, wolf ears, and a tail. wears a Navy blue buttoned up long sleeve shirt with Black suit vest and suit pants. she survived the destruction of her village from Mavros as a lomg time ago and was taken in by Alaric's family and witnessed their village also fall. Then rose to heroism initially for strength for revenge to kill mavros but as the years pass she older now, and she slowly became complacent in not pursuing revenge. unless a tragedy with mavros happens again),

Alaric male (Future-Sight a magical enhanced swordsman, wears a rough leather jacket and blue pants, and has a heirloom longsword from his father. survived his villages destruction with Jae from Mavros, his father said to protect Jae and that left him with a need to protect anyone he loves to a fault. He then became a hero to gain the strength to never let those he love die).

Jae and Alaric are extremely close having grown up together and past home villages being neighbors to each other.
