Glorious Escapism Roleplay

On a distant planet called Kisikusiku, life is often savage and short. Marauding hordes of cutthroats and pirates murder for gold. The dead rise to feast on the flesh of the living. Rampaging robots from a by-gone era gun down the descendents of their creators. Wild beasts lurk in the shadows to sink their claws into the unwary. Tyrant warlords enslave and slaughter with impunity. Wizards dabble with Devils for greater power. Only the strong survive, and even the mighty Anyasi Kingdom and Arena Kingdom are feeling the pressure. They need heroes to stabilize Kisikusiku.

The main continent is one of dry savannahs, sweaty jungles, fetid swamps, and burning deserts. Ancient temples containing hidden treasures and horrors await. Will you become rich and respected? Or will your bones litter the landscape like so many others before you?

This is a heroic fantasy role-play, specifically the sub-genre sword and soul, fantasy with an African theme. Characters are to appear African and Arabic, depending on where your character came from. Anyasi are black and Arena are white, but the majority of Kisikusiku are black.

Common weapons are short swords, scimitars, knives, staffs, wands, spears, javelins, and bows.

Anyasi names are in Swahili. Use this dictionary for ideas. Arena names are in Spanish.

The majority of magic spells are spoken in Italian, unless a mage is skilled enough to make up personal spells, in which case the spell can be in any language. Mages can use magic by drawing mana from the World of Devils. Some basics spells below:

Fuoco: A small fire ball.

Ghiaccio: A small ice ball.

Lampo: A quick bolt of lightning.

Cura: Heals minor wounds.

Sample profile

Name: Heroic Shujaa

Sex: Female

Height: 165 cm

Weight: 130 kg

Likes: All food, adventure, leadership, freedom

Dislikes: Tyranny, fear, starvation

Appearance: Shujaa is muscular and broad. Her hair is tied into rows of long, thick locks that hang past her shoulders. Her skin is slightly darker than the average Anyasi, and her breasts and firm and round, jutting proudly from her chest. Her muscles are extremely defined. For clothes she only wears a leopard-skin bikini top, a red miniskirt skirt, and sandals.

Personality: Shujaa is adventurous and honorable, descended from a line that guarded the treasure of a long lost era. She now wishes to help the people so oppressed by the dangers of Kisikusiku and to make a name for herself in the world. Shujaa is nearly fearless in battle, and is partial to a large spear and longbow as her weapons, with a knife as backup. Shujaa has no qualms about killing in defense and for protecting innocent people.

Here's my character.

Name: Radhi

Sex: Male

Height: 170 cm

Weight: 60 kg

Likes: History, treasure, theatre

Dislikes: Thieves, hot days

Appearance: Radhi is a tall young man with an average figure and tanned skin. His dark hair is short and wavy and his eyes are shade of dark brown. For clothes, he used to wear traditional attires that are associated with nobility in Arena Kingdom, but when traveling, he’ll wear a set of robes and hat to keep his head from being burned by the sun’s intense rays.

Personality: Radhi is a young man with a sense of culture and beauty. He understands the plight of those who are oppressed, but as someone who respects law and order, he thinks it doesn't justify the extremism some people take. He was one of the several candidates for the future husband of the Arena Kingdom’s royal princess, but was shock he heard that she was taken away by a bandit. With his trusty pair of short swords, he embarks on an adventure to find the princess and bring her back home.
