Battle for The Monolith - A Community RP Thread




“And so once more, The Young Gods wage War.
Blades crossed and arrows fly high,
When the Young Gods wage War.
Empires fall and Mortal’s cry,
Crowns asunder and the Shadows Rise,
When the Young Gods Wage War.
Young Gods War, but beware the prize.
For while the Battle maybe Won,
Creators below shall ever stir.”



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The day has come.

No more infiltration. No more secrets. No more arrangements.

Zaros
has manoeuvred every little piece into position, poising the scales of the universe to tip in his favour. An impressive army has been conjured into service for the final push- his escort unto glory unknowable. A regiment of traitorous knights, hoards of creatures from the Abyss, and abominations from a long-forgotten empire.

Yet not all voices have been silenced. The Opposition stands firm.

The Alliance of
Seren
,
Saradomin
, and
Crux Eqal’s
forces may be built on the unsteady foundations of mistrust, vengeance, and urgency, yet it stands strong and firm around the perimeter of the Dig Site. Can they endure the onslaught that is to come and keep The Monolith away from the machinations of
The Empty Lord
?

Then there are the rogue elements outside our two factions. There are those who would benefit from the misfortune of either side. Will they dare to enter the fray and tip the scales of fate?

Whatever happens, The Battle of The Monolith will reshape history over the next few weeks.

Just one question.

What part are YOU going to play?

Factions & Involvement

This is pretty clear. There are two main factions - the defending Alliance, and the attacking Zarosians.

First off: You do not have to be part of any existing group to join in, or even use existing characters! Feel free to go independent for this event, with a new character to boot, and partner up with other people.

The defence of the Dig Site is to be led primarily by groups representing White Knights, as they appear to be contributing the majority of normal ground forces, but also include Elves and members of the Crux Eqal organisation - which are Guthixian.

The Attackers, consisting of Zarosians, have the traitorous Temple Knights. Due to the nature of his actions and the general taboo of worshipping Zaros in public.

We want to encourage individuals and small groups to band together for these events. If you have formed a consensus amongst yourselves on who should lead these groups, post here with the details so we can draw up teams for your convenience. Once your team is set up, you can begin to arrange events in or outside this thread - we just ask kindly for you to keep us in the loop of any changes.

There is, as in the Bird and the Beast, a third faction - the nonaffiliates to the main two factions, who are predominantly not any of the above, respectively as presented above. This third faction includes everyone that isn't involved in the main two factions but is involved in the combat. Those interested in coordinating this faction, be you Godless, Armadylean or others, please post notice.

NB: Like past RP threads for World Events, this is in no way a claiming of any event by any faction. There just wasn't any central hub, and some of us felt there was a need for it. We hope that this is no way to inconvenience anyone, and want you to know we don't want or expect a monopoly on events. If you're hosting an event, or you're currently roleplaying, please post here to let it be known. It's a form of advertisement for everyone.

Scheduled Events & Groups

First thing's first - please don't use 'there's an event in an hour as an excuse for laziness.
Fight your ass off 24/7, soldier.

With that out of the way, here's the layout for scheduling events so far.

Faction: (Alliance, Zarosian, or Neutral)
Group: (Your team/group/BFFs)
When?: (Date and Time. Try to use in-game time whenever possible.)
Where?: (Simple.)
Coordinator: (Who is/will be in charge of this event?)
Details: (Set the scene for us. Entice the audience.)

As for registering just yourself, or your team/group/whatever, just fill this out and post it on this thread. I’ll list it for you when I can, but feel free to start organising things beforehand.

Faction: (Alliance, Zarosian, or Neutral.)
Group Name: (Name of your group.)
Leaders: (OOC Names first, then IC names if you’re not playing disposable characters.)
Members: (Again, OOC Names first, then IC names if you’re not playing disposable characters.)

Do you want your faction/clan noted somewhere to draw attention to it? Cool. Just post about it.

Death Policy & Issue Resolution

For events, I hope to reintroduce the concept of a 'death policy' to keep it fun and fair for everyone.

Please post suggestions. Naturally, this is just a guideline and is not strictly enforced - but if as many as you could stick to it as possible, then it will be a smoother and better experience for everyone.

Suggestion #1:
You die, you die. We all have to meet the reaper in the end.

Suggestion #2: You lose a fight, you get injured and are pulled out of combat to live another day.

Suggestion #3: You lose, you get a "get out of jail free card" in line with #2, but have the option to die if it's agreed.

Personally: Clear it with your opponent(s) when you start fighting and just honour your agreements. It's all for fun, and if you’re playing a disposable character, why fuss over it?

On a side note, if two or more people can’t come to an amicable agreement on when someone can hit or not, the RS Roleplay Wiki’s Discord now has a D20 Roll bot to help out. Feel free to drop in and use it.
