*NOTES*
The way the story is meant to go eventually all the half-souls are going to end up having partners again. We need one animal that is already a half soul. The others, unless you're playing a bad guy, are not to be half-souls... You can have them still searching but they can't be half-souls.
*Background: Broken Souls*
This is a medieval world where humans and magical animals live together as one. For every human born an animal is born, though not always at the same time. This is what they call a bonded pair. Some bonded are years apart in age. The two instinctively seek each other out and will never feel complete till they find the other.
When one finds their ‘other half’ it is a great honor. To find ones soul companion is the most rewarding thing for both human and animal. They are two halves of one soul and will never be complete until they are together. They are even able to communicate to each other through thought. Animals and humans can talk normally to each other, animals always speaking through thought but a human can only speak through thought to their own bonded.
But what happens when an animal or a human is born and their ‘other half’ passes away? Often when a human or an animal reaches their teens the death of their other half often causes them to fade from existence to join their other half in the next life, a peaceful happy passing onto a new and glorious ‘perfect existence’. But before the puberty, the bond between beast and human isn’t strong enough to bind them completely and should one pass on, the other is left alone, with only half a soul for the rest of their days. It doesn't matter if only one is young... the bond is still not strong enough until both have at least hit puberty.
This has happened on many occasions and many of these beasts and humans have gone bad. They are known as ‘half souls’. Dark beings with hearts of ice and a hatred for the bond that humans and beasts share with their ‘other halves’. Now a group of these ‘half souls’ have gotten together and intend to overthrow the world of light and bring about a time of darkness.
Now it is up to a young boy, who may just be a ‘half soul’ himself, and those that join him on his travels, to stop the dark ones and show them that, even though their ‘other halves’ may be gone, they are not alone. They must be the light in the darkness and shine upon the dark ones and bring peace to the land…
Will you join Tanner on his quest to heal the dark hearts of the ‘half souls’?
*Setting*~
We're pretty much in a dungeons and dragons type medieval world... monsters and such and inns to sleep in in each city we go to. The currency is copper, silver, gold and platinum... copper of course being the lowest currency.
There may be quests on the way like a dungeon and dragons adventure... killing monsters, finding treasure, saving people and their villages and whatnot.
If you know anything about dungeons and dragons characters often have classes... jobs that they can do... fighters, mages, healers, rangers, druids, etc. If you want to class your character you can... though you don't necessarily have to.
People can be healed, cured and such with healing herbs and other such stuff or with magic depending on what a person's power is. It's usually safe to have your character bring some bandages and herbs and such with them wherever they go.
Everyone in this world has a special ability though some have more unique ones then others or much stronger abilities. But everyone has a power... Nurses and doctors tend to have some kind of healing abilities for example. Archers sometimes have sight or hearing abilities. Swordsman and other melee fighters sometimes have strength or agility abilities... sometimes... not always... Your ability doesn't force you to do something specific though it might aid you to lean that way as it will make you better at such a 'job'.
*The Original Broken Souls*
This Broken Souls rp was done on Ponystars and I brought it with me back here. I am LillyKitty and it was my idea just so you know. Lilly is my cat seen in my avatar here all the time =). You'll notice in this rp at the beginning that we were blogged as the best rp on the site... chosen of course by the site's blogger and not the whole community but it's still an honor. I got interviewed and everything.
