Do you remember that day? That terrible, monumental, glorious day? The day when the Rose Empire was changed forever. The day the usurping Glory Faction came, fought, conquered. The Heritage Faction, unfortunately, didn't stand a chance. When they fell, they fell hard. The change in leadership sent ripples through the entire kingdom, and everyone from arbiters to urchins to forgers felt its effect. It seems it was so long ago, yet the time has passed in a blink of eye. Well, the Glory Faction's rule is stable now. It didn't take them long, all things considering. The Rose Empire settled, falling back into a familiar rhythm. But not the Heritage Faction. How could they? The kingdom had been swept from under their feet in the most brutal of ways, and nothing had been done about it. It had been forgotten about as quickly as a Rememberer's smudge on a painting would be once they covered it up. No, ever since their downfall, those still in the Heritage Faction vowed they would hold the kingdom in their grasp again. Political revenge is a particularly nasty disease, and the Heritage Faction is infected with it. And at long last, they might have the numbers to stand a chance. The Glory Faction's rule may soon be fading into the shadows, and they hardly have a clue of what's to come. ~ The Forger sat in their den, deep under the palace, and smiled. The time has finally arrived. They uncovered an Essence Mark, of their own making- the Forger wouldn't dare trust anyone else's work- and their smile grew wider. The Mark was of excellent craftmanship, a stamp with the most intricate detailing imaginable. And it was time to use it. The Forger quickly inked it, despite there being no reason for haste, and pressed the stamp into their skin. It didn't matter what their name was before, because now they were someone else. As the stamp burned in the Forger's skin, changing their identity, they looked up at the ceiling. Towards the palace. Towards the Emperor's seat and the power of the Rose Empire. I will not fail, ancestors. I will make you proud. When all was done, the Rose Empire would burn. Welcome to MR54: Fading Glory! This game is a rerun of MR37/AN6, which was created and ran as a blackout game by @Elandera, so credit to the concept and rules go to her. Many thanks for letting me borrow the ruleset! A link to the original game can be found here. I'll be the GM for this game, and @Elandera will be the IM. I thought it'd be fun to let the story of the game take place chronologically in the same universe and after MR37, in which the eliminators (Glory Faction) won a decisive victory over the villagers (Heritage Faction). So I switched the names of the factions for the rerun Hope that doesn't cause too much confusion. Signups will run for about a week, ending on Saturday, November 6th, at 1pm PST, assuming enough people sign up. That will be the rollover time for the duration of the game, unless something in my schedule changes. One final disclaimer: It's been a few years since I've read Emperor's Soul, so I apologize in advance for anything I screw up lore/worldbuilding wise Thanks! Anyway, without further ado, here are the rules: Basics: Factions: Soul Forger: Faction-Specific Roles: Non-Faction Specific Roles: Art: OoA: If you prefer the rules in doc form, that can be found here. Player List: Spectators: Pinch-Hitters: Quicklinks:
