A quick history.[/center]
The Kingdom is older than anyone knows, and there are many many stories about how it was first conquered by Ferius Mauntell, whose family still rules the kingdom today. Although it is not known how many greats it would be, King Garris Mauntell is ruling, and in the 14th year of his reign.
In legend there is one thing that all kings need fear, and that is the anomalies. The anomalies are prophesied to be a small group of mages that will bring about the downfall of the Mauntell line. They have always been regarded as legend and myth, but lately more and more powerful mages have been birthed, and it's starting to worry King Garris.
He began to stomp out magic of all kinds, especially if it was not from a noble family. But even noble children are not safe if their powers are too strong or their magic is not one common to the family line. Slowly but surely, magic is fading from the lives of the common people...
250 years later... Present Day
The young Prince Marick has been crowned King, generations after the Mad King Garris's death. Magic is all but gone from the streets, only the royal line and a few of the greater lords lay any claim to magic in their families. The few children who are born with powers are born weak or middling, mostly water and aire mages, and are taught by the Grand Mage. The Grand Mage is old, near to ancient and is one of the few who remembers being told of first hand about when magic was common.
But lately... more and more children have been born with powers. More and more there are noble children accidentally setting things on fire. The young King Marick is not afraid, but some of his councilors remember the prophecy that drove his ancestor to madness.
One of his Lords takes matters into his own hands, and begins to dispose of any children who he thinks are too powerful, or out of place. When the King finds out about this he tries to get rid of the Lord, but it is too late. He has already gathered enough to his cause that after his death the murders continue.
In an effort to protect any children born with powers, Kind Marick sends them to a school in the mountains, with the Grand mage to protect them from the murders that he cannot stop.
Little does he know the anomalies are already grown and hiding in his own country, even if they do not yet know who they are, or their own destiny...[/blockquote][/size]
We have 25 different character classes at All in Motley. We have 9 types of magic at 4 levels. We have teaching positions open for characters 25 and above. And many things to do in the rest of our world as well. School term starts on the 20th, or at 20 members, whichever comes first. Currently we have 15 members, all of whom are active. This site gets posted on almost every day so we are very active. We're a semi-literate site, so we have no one liners. We also have an active OOC area where you can talk about anything you like or play games with other members.
