SUMMER

Angkar: Wet season. Precipitation is common during the late afternoon and evening hours. Vegetation grows significantly during the summer, but flooding is a danger due to the monsoons that ravage the country. The rainforest sees evenly distributed rainfall throughout the season.

Ashoka: Desert: Extremely hot and dry. Violent, heavy downpours following long dryspells. Jungle: Hot and humid with frequent, violent rainstorms.

Morrim: Relatively hot and dry, but with a chance of thunderstorms from time to time. The heat may cause forest fires.

Soto: Hot and humid, tree cover is dense while ground growth is restricted. Thunderstorms see the most amount of rainfall during the season, and it can be very windy. On occasion, there are flash floods that can destroy homes and farms built on flood plains.

WHAT IS ELENLOND?

Elenlond is an original free-form medieval fantasy RPG set on the continent of Soare and the Scattered Isles, which are located to the south in the Sea of Diverging Waters. The four chief nations of the western side of the world—Ashoka in northern Soare, Soto in western Soare, Morrim in eastern Soare, and Angkar, the largest of the Scattered Isles—continue to experience growth and prosperity since the fall of the Mianorite gods, although power struggles within the countries—or outside of them—continue to ensue.

  • CURRENT EVENTS

    Angkar: To honour the reinvigoration of the ancient city of Mondrágon, the majestic Queen Eulalia has permitted the opening of a Coliseum where people from around the world and all walks of life can test their combat skills against one another. Many have already done battle in search of honour, glory, prizes and money.

    Ashoka: In an otherwise peaceful times, Ashokans are beset with the relatively minor inconveniences of wandering undead and occasionally-aggressive giant rock worms. There has also been some controversy over the recent re-legalisation of human sacrifice.

    Morrim: Rumour has it that Emperor Leofric de Hollemark is mustering forces for a war. Though the threat from Soto’s forests has passed, the forces previously employed in watching the forest now linger at the border. Rumours also circulate of a small group that has been dispatched to make contact with the tribes of the Do’suul Mountains.

    Soto: The Sotoans have defeated the fey and liberated themselves from Méadaigh’s oppression! Preliminary efforts have been made at rebuilding the city of Madrid, which had been captured at the beginning of the war. However, the Sotoans are hindered from recovery famine. Méadaigh’s magic caused summer to persist in the Erth’netora Forest through the winter. Her power has been withdrawn and the plants die as if preparing for winter – even though it is now summer. The Sotoans must sustain off what food they can get, what creatures they can kill and what can be imported into the city from Morrim and Angkar.

    Name: Aska
    Age: Indeterminate
    Gender: Male
    Alignment: Chaotic Evil
    Social Class: Nobility
    Occupation: Evil Mastermind
    Race: Ver'a Se
    Weapons: None

    Physical Appearance: His avatar is average, about 5'10 and slender, muscled in a vaguely athletic manner. Instead of looking distinctly masculine, however, his long legs and delicate wrists are distinctly feminine. His hips are slender, his waist small and his collarbones are faintly reminiscent of a bird's wing bones. His neck is long and delicate and his face is a smooth oval with pointed chin.

    The features of his face, above his lips, are sharp – his nose is straight, fine, and thin eyebrows, teal in color and almost pencil thin rest above glassy and bright eyes of the same hue, though speckled with the pinprick starlight shimmers of the cosmos. His ears are elongated several inches up and to the back, though unlike his other features are rounded at the tips. The lips of his face are softly feminine but masculinely shaped, pale but plush looking. His face, when idle, is forever smirking – as if he is scheming, laughing at something you don't know, but he does. The hair above his face continues the teal theme and is the texture of goose down. It is long, reaching just past his shoulders and the color shifts depending on the lighting, notably picking up the highlights of both the dawn and the dusk, among others.

    He robes himself in elegant tailored cloths; fanciful dress shirts as well as suits and is hardly ever seen in the same clothing twice; his outfits made of silks and generally the colors of sunsets: peach-golden, magenta, orange, dusky blue-purple and teal. An array of different thick heeled dress boots, mostly black are worn on his feet, the toes either pointed or with a vague upwards curl, but always shined to perfection. On either of his index fingers are rings much like the fingers of gauntlets, but more ornate; they are like gilt armor for his fingers, work of the highest quality and finest silver. The skin of his body is a warm and healthy peach that seems to glow as if the sun shone from inside of him; not brightly, not blindingly, but like an aura of warmth and vigor. When he speaks, you hear him as though he is next to you but like his voice comes from a great distance, as across eons or through fog.

    Personality: Attractiveness and power are usually complimented by vanity and corruption and Aska is no exception. He is easily a selfish being, one that puts himself first and everyone else second – as it should be with anyone, he assumes. There are rare times when Aska will sacrifice himself for the cause of someone else, believing that because everyone in the world is out on their own, out all by themselves after all, such tiny mercies continue the development of hope, which could then be crushed at a later date, but such circumstances are few and very far in between. You could call him a cynic and even somewhat of a pessimist – at least, when it concerns the affairs of the world – and you'd be correct in that assumption, because it's true. He is quick to think the worst of people and is easily the sort who would trust you just about as far as he could throw you – it's just easier to be wary and wise, rather than be delicate and damned.

    There is a contained joyful wildness about him that tricks many into assuming he is an agent of good, who deals in wonder, dreams, light, and the stars like sweet narcotics. This is not the case. When out in the world, an air of fertility seems to cling to him, like flowers might bloom spontaneously from where he set his feet or brushed a finger. He may seem decadent, as though all he thought about was keeping himself covered in rich cloth, but this is untrue as well. What he takes pleasure in is the act of corrupting. He creates, shapes, and molds the dreams of those that come to him, or those that are unlucky enough o catch his attention when he is bored. In his laboratory, an intense clutter of old tomes, jewels, trinkets, vials and glowing liquids, he creates dreams the way an apothecary might make a healing draft. Many of his blessings and signs of favor are highly addictive to those that receive them, and many destroy themselves because of them; much to his amusement. They come to him, asking for something; he asks for something in return, and a trade is made. When they come back for more, the price goes up. When confronted with this cycle in a negative light, he will always insist that he does not see this either as aiding or destroying them, simply giving them what they want.

    He is very manipulative and will do just about anything to get what he wants. There are not many things in this world which Aska covets, however, the one thing he wishes for is a secret locked inside his head and will continue to do what he has to do, step on those who need to be stepped on, until finally, his goal is achieved. He is not above using anyone, man, woman, child, and will do whatever he can do with the talents that are at his disposal. He is forever scheming and crafty when it comes to molding others to do as he wishes, and isn't someone who takes 'no', for an answer. However, he is very patient, being an entity with an extended lifetime. Calm, collected, and skillful, he knows that manipulating others is an art, and is excellent in the craft. Someone like Aska, who has spent many years walking on land amongst humans and others, realizes that a plan of his might take a while, yes, but if it gets him even one step closer to becoming the legendary dominating thing he muses about, then he's ready to wait however long it takes.
