Back when the continent was whole, mankind and other creatures lived in fear of the Ancient Beasts that roamed the land. Treated as though gods for most they lived according to their wishes, be it killing anyone who came across their territory or playing games with the smaller inhabitants and accepting sacrifices in order to remain placid. These old gods were often hungry for more, starting wars on each other to gain more land, resources, or recognition, paying no mind to the destruction left in their wake. They destroyed homes, even changed the landscape and water so that the environment was uninhabitable. And yet these smaller creatures, feeling loyalty to (or fearful of) their chosen god, fought amongst each other as well in the name of their overlord and bloodshed stained the lands of the continent. Hundreds of years continued on in this manner, with no real end in sight, despite the dwindling population of lesser creatures on the mainland.

There was one god however that chose a different path from the others. Shahrivar, an avian-like giant with a bronze beak, talons that could pierce through the hardest of metals, and plumage that rippled in a variety of iridescent colors, had a very caring disposition, having spent much time with its subjects and growing fond of their character. They gave the beast many gifts and, in return, the being offered protection and guidance. Yet as the wars began, Shahrivar knew that they would not be spared. They fled, taking the smaller creatures to the canyons, creating homes nestled in the rockface hidden out of sight. To be most prepared, Shahrivar gave these creatures small bits of their essence, allowing them to wield power unlike any other. Though other Ancient Beasts could do the same, they feared that the lesser beings would rise up against them. However, the benevolent Shahrivar trusted their following and wanted them to be able to live on even after the Ancient Wars…

When the wars finally reached Shahrivar and their following, only broken Ancients were left. Their followers were either ruined and turned to dust or had fled to the farthest corners of the continent to hide. With great work, Shahrivar and the Rivats (as they so lovingly called themselves) rid the land of the rest of the Ancient Beasts, taking back the land and establishing peace. Shahrivar was wounded and scarred from battle, but soon it was over. The land, though ravaged, was given new life as both beast and smaller creatures worked to restore its balance. They welcomed back those who ran from their homes because of the Ancient Wars, creating small settlements that are known now as the biggest cities of Edir. Shahrivar, now the only Ancient left, felt they had nothing left to offer their people and tired from warring, vanished into hiding, giving only knowledge of their whereabouts to a select few. The knowledge was kept hidden from people but many legends say that Shahrivar lies hidden, overflowing with the same power, able to grant wishes to those who find them.

This story takes place centuries after. Edir is made up of separate kingdoms that have agreed upon an alliance, whereas Fioria (to the east) are allied island territories that have established trade with Edir. Many people/creatures are magic users, but only those in royalty with magic use the ‘Rivat’ name in their title. There is still a good chunk of those without magic.

Almost everyone in Edir knows Edirian, the official language. Fioria (Fiori) has its own language but they use Edirian because of trade deals and for the sake of foreign affairs.

There are still wild beasts that roam that do not know language and display magic. V dangerous, much yikes.

Question, is this open to everyone, or just a you and Rip thing?

Also, if it is open to everyone, are you cool if I run a Kobold? The way I read it was that all fantasy creatures are on the table.

Right now I'm gonna hold off on opening the RP to others just because I don't know if I can handle more RPs with my schedule right now, I just kind of am testing if I can manage two for the time being. I'll let you know if I end up juggling more.
