Long ago there existed five crystal orbs that represented the major elements of Iulica. Four of the orbs represented a single element: Fire, Water, Earth and Air. The fifth and final orb represented Light and Darkness. The 'Original Four' were taken away and hidden after the 'Splitting of the Orb'. However, 'Crystals' were left behind. These small pieces of the orbs allowed a person to use its magical energy to enhance their own strength and will and use that element as a weapon. Before this happened, only Mages had been able to do such things. Some were able to even tap into deeper power with a Crystal and use such techniques as 'Teleportation' and "Telekinesis". These people were 'True Crystal Bearers'.
Over the centuries and time that passed, the 'Orb of Two' was split into two by an unknown force. The 'Splitting of the Orb', as it became known as to later generations, caused a large divide among the people and races of the lands. Unbeknown to most, a demon had been released from the orb, the King of Darkness to be more precise. He left for the Remote Lands behind the lands of the Goblins to recover his strength.
Doubt, Suspicion and rumor plagued the land with those such as Humans and the Elves believed it had been the Goblins and the Orcs. In turn, the Orcs and Goblins believed that the Humans had done it to cause further conflict in the land. The doubt turned to mistrust and so the division of the world came to pass. Humans, Elves and Dwarfs choose the side of Light while Orcs, Goblins and Dark Elves choose the side of Darkness. The lands under races fall under either the Realm of Light or the Realm of Darkness.
The two sides rose powerful armies in the name of justice, honor and belief. Humans and Elves stood together whilst Dwarfs retreated to their mountain lands. The two powerful and major races combined their forces to form the Army of Light that would defend the Light Realm. The leader of the Army of Light, and more so the entire Realm of Light, is the [/b]Maiden of Light Marlene[/b] who conducted her duties from the Divinus Censura, a temple building at the heart of the Divine City of Light. A special guard was formed known as the Templar Knights to protect the Maiden but also act the Generals and Commanders of the Army of Light directly under Maiden Marlene. The Templar Knights each have a Crystal but only two or three are True Crystal Bearers.
The Realm of Darkness was initially shattered beyond hope of recovery. The Orc Tribes attacked the Goblins, who were suffering an inter-tribal war. The Dark Elves became tired of the constant fighting between the lower races and retreated to the mountains to train themselves physically and mentally. It took some time but finally a Goblin King by the name of Djufarrio was able to bring the Goblin tribes together and declared war on Humanity for the 'Splitting of the Orb'. The Dark Elves and Orcs also rallied to this cause. Unknown to all, Djufarrio was acting under orders from the King of Darkness. Thanks to the King of Darkness, more Dark Crystal Bearers have been able to become True Crystal Bearers.
Now the whole world Iulica is plunged into war as the first battle of the war becomes under way. The Battle of Luc-Kaja, a human city that is near the borders of the two realms.

So there you have it folks. Incase you didn't pick on many of the points I'll just briefly mention some key points that relate to the template:
If and when this RP starts, all members will start out at the Battle of Luc-Kaja and will be made to engage in combat. The actions of the players were determine the outcome. If the majority of a side's PCs are defeated, not killed just defeated, in combat then that side must retreat.
Rules
1. Most important: Have. Fun. This RPG is meant to be fun and enjoyable and not to cause problems.
2. All are welcome to join but I must ask that you must be able to post at one or two paragraphs of about three to four good length sentences each post you make.
3. No God-Modding or Meta-Gaming. If you don't know what these mean then ask so you don't have to risk doing one of these. Anyone who breaks this rule is booted out of the RP straight away.
4. Password for Army of Light is "For the Maiden" and the for the side of Darkness it is "We shall crush them".
5. All OOC posting will occur in this thread. Try to keep it a minimal though.
6. No one may play the Maiden of Light Marlene, the King of Darkness or the Goblin King Djufarrio
7. Only a select few may be 'True Crystal Bearers'. If you wanna apply then do so in your template or before posting your template. True Crystal Bearer powers are not limited to just Teleportation and Telekinesis.
8. Just thought that this should be mentioned twice since it is important. Have fun.

So there you have it folks. Incase you didn't pick on many of the points I'll just briefly mention some key points that relate to the template:
- Six Playable Races: Humans, Elves, Dwarfs, Orcs, Goblins and Dark Elves
- Two Playable Sides: Army of Light, Army of Darkness
- Six Usable Elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Darkness and Light
- Crystals: Pieces of the 'Original Four' orbs that allows a person to tap into magical energy and use the corresponding element as a weapon itself
- True Crystal Bearers: People who have tapped into a deeper power through use of a Crystal. Can use powerful techniques such as Teleportation and Telekinesis but this can tire them out easily
If and when this RP starts, all members will start out at the Battle of Luc-Kaja and will be made to engage in combat. The actions of the players were determine the outcome. If the majority of a side's PCs are defeated, not killed just defeated, in combat then that side must retreat.
