Octagon: Another Purpose : Act 3 and further [ EDIT ]
This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.
Game is set in Ninth world, primary world of Nuemenra setting. In distant and mysterious land which is located somewhere at northern side of Ninth World Megacontinent.
It is Octagon, strange land built by Mysterious Daars, which is threated by its inhabitants differently: for some it is a prison, other see it as holy land where their souls grow in order to join and serve their Daars after their physical bodies perish, and some percieve it as harsh and unforgiving world, which encased in un-breachable Octagons Perimeter Wall and Devided into 8 Octants formed by mysterious Daar's Design.
The story of this game begins in the Halls of the Citadel of Turola, which is home to one of independent factions, which reside within second section of the North-Eastern Tonus Octant.
It is located deep within Tonus Woods - Huge, Dark Alpha forest, which stretch for miles around, and which filled with different kind of dangers.
The ruler of the Turola, who bears title of Mischevious Duke who Employs Spies, signed alliance with mysterious faction named The Prism, led by one of the Daars - Daar La. They are probably are guilty and are the reason for our players appearance and arrival to the Octagon - finding the way to not the break Daar's Testament law, they seek and draw ones whom they consider being helpful using their Daar's inventions in order to bring and reinforce "untouched and unchanged human" presence. There are some dire things happening to the Octagon and they are endangering things in it, around it, and in dimensions which are bound to it. The Prism is political body which is dedicated to fix and patch things up.
Our players are members of two surviving parties which were guided, dragged by Prism inventions into the Turola, where they were approached by Turola court and the Prism, which offered them luxurous living conditions, certain extended privileges, alot of goodies, and many other things for siding with them and helping to fix this harsh and strange World, which been separated by unbreachable huge curtain from other Ninth World, and was created by group of ancient Daars for unknown to our party memebrs reasons.
Not all of the arriving members of three parties accepted Turolic and Prism order, and not all them survived on their way to turola, but the ones who did - been given privileges, special living manor for all of them within huge, many-layered megapolis, shady citadel of Turola.
Turola have its charm, it have very elegant architecture, the "pledged" , "loyal" and "the court" - citizens with privileges, powers, which reside in middle and top layers of the Turola, are known for their diplomacy skills, their mischief, vibrant commerce, and their shady tricks and techniques.
It is known that they are only one of 5 citadels which joined The Prism cause, who been percieved as great benefactors of all things free and human within the Octagon walls.
Our party originates from two different groups which reached the Turola from outside, and they were settled together.
