Notice!: This is the final chapter in this RP, though people are free to join, they may want to think about joining StormbladetheNeravine's follow up RP The Story of Apocrypha RP.

The year is 3E 433 and the emperor, Uriel Septim VII, and all of his heirs lie dead. They were murdered, by an unknown group of assassins, who are still at large, plotting against Tamriel and its people. As a result of this, the people of Tamriel have grown frightened, as hellish gates to Mehrunes Dagon’s plane of Oblivion have opened across the continent, unleashing the horrors that dwell within.

Many common minds see nothing but disaster in this, as everything they know could be destroyed by the unknown and forever blighted and tainted by its evil. However, the less common see opportunity in this rare occasion as these gateways offer a rare chance, to see another plane of Oblivion and discover its secrets.

One such mind did just that, as soon as she discovered the existence of these ‘Oblivion gates’ she grabbed her quill and began writing letters to any lead she could get, looking for the best that Tamriel had to offer, to take on as a hireling.

She sent her crows all over the continent, delivering them to those she deems worthy of such an opportunity.

Agatha Tira, Witch and scholar has attracted a large group of adventurers to accompany her into the depths of Mehrune's Dagon's plane of Oblivion, the Deadlands.

New players will not be allowed to be members of the original companionship from this point on, instead, you have the following options. 
 * Join as an adventurer who has entered an Oblivion gate and gotten lost.
 * Play as a Dremora.
 * Suggest another way to enter the RP, any suggestions must be approved, for continuity and story purposes.

The previous part can be foundhere.

Rules:

1. You can create up to 3 characters with pets.

2. Take this RP seriously. No messing around!: If you find yourself bored, then write a flashback or a dream sequence and develop your character and if you can’t be bothered doing that, then go away and do something else for a bit.

Do not annoy others, simply because you are bored.

3. You can not kill or maim (remove the limbs off of) other player characters, without the creator’s permission. You can if they agree to it, or if the contributor has left the RP some time ago.

4. You cannot be any of the TES protagonists and their names, races, genders and pasts are unknown.

 ·         Dragons are currently extinct and the only known Dragonborn at this time is Martin Septim.

5. You can not be a Divine or a Daedric prince or any over powered super race.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">6. You cannot be overpowered: By this I mean…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">7. The time is 3E 433: During the events of The Elder Scolls IV: Oblivion.
 * No avoiding damage or ignoring it: You take hits, just like you dish them out. You may block or dodge attacks but one in three must hit you.
 * No ridiculously over powered super-spells: Anything that allows you to destroy powerful enemies in one hit or gives you a majorly unfair advantage over other players and NPCs will be considered over powered.
 * You cannot destroy a building in one post: Depending on the building’s size; you must destroy it over the course of several posts. The only exception is during Flashbacks, dream sequences or during written plot pieces (over the course of a paragraph or two).
 * ‘Fridge Magic’ is also considered a form of overpoweredness. Fridge Magic is spontaneous luck, which allows the player to avoid damage or consequence for their actions. It can be done accidentally, so it’s not treated as harshly, but please undo it if multiple people call you out on it or if the GM calls you out on it.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">8. Your character can be from any province in Tamriel.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">9. You can be any Race you want. (Please submit modded races before posting.)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">10. You can take control of any NPC (e.g. Barkeep), as long as no one else is controlling them at the time. (Also don't go to over the top with powerful NPC's)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">11. If you write a piece, you can add the occasional song or track in a link to the RP, use to state that you are adding a track.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">12. You can have Flashbacks: Unless you have arrangements with another player, you cannot interact with another player’s characters in a flashback, you can with NPCs.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">13. You can also write dream sequences: In a dream, most rules do not apply but only, because dreams have no bearing on the plot or actual world. Anything that happened in the dream stays in the dream; therefore dreams should only be kept to one or two post.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">14. Do not forget to add a Character card…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; line-height:normal">More rules may be added...
