The Black Rose RP: Into The Cage (Part Two)Only six months earlier, Tamriel was in turmoil. A war between the Mede Empire, at that time led by Emperor Titus Mede II's only son, Lorenzo, and the Aldmeri Dominion threatened to turn the Imperial provinces into a burning wreck, while a sinister plot hidden behind the smokescreen of the war threatened to send all of Tamriel into a dark age. The traitorous High Chancellor, High General of the Legion, and Imperial Battlemage, Novo Interitus worked in the shadows with the Order of the Black Worm, preparing to raise the God of Worms from the grave and rule as the overlord of Tamriel.But this did not go unnoticed. The Imperial Cult, having been watching with vigilant eyes, promptly sent out one of it's own to gather a company of mercenaries and investigate. Upon realizing the Black Worm's intent to raise Mannimarco, the company swiftly realized that if they didn't act swiftly, the world would burn in the rising of the Worm King, and so they set off to unravel the plot and unmask the leader of the necromancers, so as to stop the rising of the Revenant Moon. Along the way, more joined their cause as they struggled to halt the war and defeat the necromancers, but were ultimately too late. Mannimarco rose and fled from the company to raise an army, preparing to march on Cyrodiil and destroy the Imperial City.

Seeing the trouble at hand, the company gathered a fighting force of their own. Among them, the Forsworn of the Reach, led by Torene's sister, Peri, the Crimson Scars, led by the master assassin Seline Delvanni, a company of mercenaries, led by the mighty warrior Kjalek, and the soldiers of the city, led by the newly-crowned Emperor Makoru. Together, they held the city well, but ultimately the Worm King's forces overwhelmed those of the City. Only the last-minute aid of the last Camoran heir, the deathless King Daithi Camoran, allowed them to drive back the legions of the dead and defeat the Worm King, whose body was burnt to ashes following the ascension of Emperor Makoru to the Imperial throne. Soon afterward the City was rebuilt and the Empire itself began to prosper under the generally benevolent hand of the new Emperor.

But this is not a story about kings and armies. No, this is a rather different story. This is a story about revenge, a plot, and a group of convicts sitting in darkened cells, a story that begins on a cart rolling along a road towards the shadow of a massive prison...

RULES:

This is not the Black Rose you may remember. Rather than a free RP, this RP has a storyline, so please try not to alter it.

Don't try to be OP, godmod, etc.

All custom powers/armor/weapons have to be approved by me or Rider before they are allowed. Custom or extinct races are not allowed.

Please, do try to follow the lore set by Bethesda, Kirkbride, and myself.

Do not kill or incapacitate characters without their permission or a ruling from myself. If the RPer controlling said character has left the character in limbo for more than four days, then either Rider or myself will take care of it.

Rider and I are the GMs of this RP. What we say is LAW.

I reserve the right to kill anyone who refuses to follow the rules. After all, this is a prison, and there is an executioner as well.

Tip: Our wonderful friend and compatriot Goldflame33 has created a blog detailing tips on how to follow the rules and still have fun doing so. While you don't have to, you should probably read it and take what he says to heart.
