The lore of the world that the RP takes place in, at least to the extent needed to accurately participate in The 7 Trumpets.
The lore of the world that the RP takes place in, at least to the extent needed to accurately participate in The 7 Trumpets.
To start off, this RP takes place in a modern fictional world similar to our own Earth, but different in varying ways. This is because of previous worldbuilding, due to it taking place in the same world as a comic I'm currently working on, titled Duet. You don't need to know anything about this comic in order to participate in The Seven Trumpets, and any information you NEED to know will be listed here.
First of all, this RP takes place in southern Illinois, very close to St. Louis. I know this area pretty damn well, and if you live around here like I do, you'll know that it really is a big mess of any natural disaster that could happen--which is why the Gods are so perfectly fit for an RP based around here. The area of the RP isn't exactly a picture-by-picture replica of anywhere in Illinois, but I imagined it as just somewhere above St. Louis a bit, to the point where the Arch can be viewed from where our cats are situated. I altered a bit of the land and towns around here to better fit more varied clan territories, and so people felt more inclined to check out the various places of note inside the land here during actual RPs.
Second, the world does not only contain humans. It also contains what I call monsters, but what the cats of the RP call 'humantypes'. Basically sentient enough to pass for a human, while maybe not looking exactly like them. This includes anthromorphs, objectheads, cryptids, myths, anything you can think of. This is completely normal for the cats! They don't think anything of the humantypes that might pass through the area--or at least, they think as much of them as they would of normal humans. If you want to include human interaction in a cat's backstory, you can say they were a humantype of some sort if you really wanted! This shouldn't be much of a huge thing in RP, but it's necessary to know for the worldbuilding of the actual world itself.
Those are about the only most important things I could think of, and if there are other questions, feel free to send in an ask on tumblr!
TLDR, the important stuff to note is:
• RP takes place in southern Illinois, by St. Louis, in a made-up area
• The world is modern, and up to date with the current year in real life, though has magical/fantasy/fictional elements
• Humans are not the only dominant species/race. There are also humantypes, which can be anthromorphs, objectheads, cryptids, etc
• The only thing odd about the world to the cats of this RP are the deities, Gods, and Ad Infinitum
