THIS MAY ALSO UNDERGO CHANGES AS TIME PROGRESSES AND AS I SEE FIT.

About the World

Within the land of Alohepia, the denizens live peaceful, paradise-filled lives. Death does occur, yes, but only peacefully and of old age. People are happy and friendly. They never know strife, pain, or sadness. Legend tells them that the reason for this is because their god, their creator, blessed them from the kindness of its heart. The truth is far, far darker.

The Legend
Written by Prof. Cornellium Davids

Long ago, in the age far gone, there was nothingness. A blank slate. Then, there was something. A little glimmer of light, of hope. It slowly took shape. The shape of the god, Bahtmothet. A creature with the head of a beast, the maw of a dragon, the body, and arms of man, the claws of a feline and the legs of a beast.

For a time, he thought. He wondered what to do with the blank slate he had. Then, he decided. He wanted something to watch, something to nurture, to love and be loved by. He had decided.
With his decision in mind, he raked his claws upon the land, creating ravines and mountains. as he tore, he was cut. From the cuts came a golden ichor, which, upon hitting the ground, created life. It created the basis of the Beasts: Mankind, Felines, Lizards, Serpis, Canis, Ursinus, Equis, and so on. From those Beasts, aside from Mankind, came others. And, as the ground cut into Bahtmothet's flesh, he wept from pain. From the tears he wept came nature and water, filling up many ravines or holes his claws left, creating rivers and oceans. Grass also began growing from the nourishment his blood and tears gave it.

When all was done, he stepped back and watched his creations. Bahtmothet was pleased. He watched for eons. He watched the Beasts fight one another, killing, mauling and harming one another. No.. This will not do.. He had thought. My creations mustn't fight amongst each other and themselves. I shall stop this!

With that thought, he ended fighting. He ended death, he ended the wars his creations had. He ended any reason they would fight; from land, to food, to money... He got rid of it. He made endless expansions of land, made trees and plants bear fruit at all times. He made them have no need for wealth. Yes, they could keep their kingdoms, tribes and such... But no more fighting.

The Truth

Written by [REDACTED]

When the eons had passed, Bahtmothet did not do what he did out of kindness. He was offered sacrifices. Six sacrifices. Six Beasts. The first Six were of Mankind, Felidae, Canis, Serpis, Ursinus, and Equis. Every ten years, six more are sent. They keep the god Bahtmothet appeased. This has gone on for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. We fear what he may do if we were to stop. Perhaps we shall. Who knows?

RP PLOT

A'ight. After thaaaat all (which took me two hours to type lmao), here's the plot.

This (currently) takes place in a year that is the year of the Six Sacrifices. I will (obviously) play one of the Six and Bahtmothet. No one has to play as one of the Six and may play as a companion to the group! Of course, there must be a variation in characters! You can be any Mammalian/Reptilian/Amphibian/Bird species. Alsoooo, animals can talk ;) (for convenience). I'll also be the person "setting up" the areas and such as the characters enter them. sooo,, kinda like DM. Be aware, this will be my first time doing this in a while, so excuse me if I'm a little rusty! ^.^
Oh, and, also! The first bit will be the Six meeting, being "summoned" to a location to be taken to the Altar. No one knows the true meaning to be one of the Six, either. They believe that the Six are not being sacrificed, but they are being brought somewhere to appease the god Bahtmothet through prayer and offerings, not through death.
Aaaand who will summon them, I might hear you ask? Why, but the ever-so ferocious Bahtmothet! He'll personally come and give them the location ;)

CURRENT EVENT

This refers to what is happening in-universe; such as travels or where any individual character is if they've split from the group.
