OLD MAN YELLS AT CLAN




The Heavenly Jade Emperor posted:

Amidst celestial realms, where legends ascend,
Resides a realm of wonder, a world to transcend.
Xianxia, the tapestry of ancient tales,
Unveils realms divine, where immortality prevails.

Embracing nature's essence, harmonizing yin and yang,
Xianxia weaves a cosmos, where mortals yearn to hang.
It unfolds a realm, profound and vast,
Where heroes rise, surpassing limits of the past.

Sages and cultivators tread an arduous path,
Seeking the elixir of life, overcoming nature's wrath.
With disciplined hearts, they harness qi's might,
Unleashing ethereal powers, awash in celestial light.

Martial prowess blossoms, swords sing in the air,
As warriors traverse realms, their fate they dare.
Serenading mountains and rivers with valorous might,
Xianxia warriors etch their names in the starry night.

Dragons soar high, phoenixes dance in the breeze,
As gods and demons battle, the world's balance seized.
Mystic beasts roam, fierce and untamed,
As mortals ascend, their destinies untamed.

Through trials and tribulations, heroes find their way,
Mastering arcane arts, ascending realms each day.
In realms of cultivation, realms of divine grace,
Xianxia whispers secrets, in ancient verses embrace.

Imbued with essence, ink etches profound,
Poems tell of realms, where miracles abound.
Xianxia's essence, a journey that unfolds,
In words of ancient poetry, its story is told.

Thus, let the verses flow, like a river's winding stream,
As Xianxia's essence dances in this poet's dream.
In the realm of fantasy, where legends take flight,
Xianxia bewitches souls, with its ethereal light.

The Xianxia (Cultivation) genre embodies an enchanting world where individuals embark on a spiritual journey to attain immortality and supernatural powers. Rooted in Chinese folklore and mythology, Xianxia stories revolve around cultivators who traverse through realms, cultivating their inner energy (qi) and unlocking profound abilities. These cultivators face trials, battles, and encounters with mythical creatures, as they strive to ascend to higher realms, achieve immortality, and ultimately transcend the boundaries of mortality. Through discipline, perseverance, and enlightenment, these heroes transcend human limitations, delving into the realms of martial arts, magic, and celestial forces, while exploring themes of destiny, honor, and the pursuit of eternal life.

Cultivation happens in millions of ways, across millions of worlds, and comprises millions of stories. In one such realm, called the Golden Sky Realm by those beings that inhabit it, rests the Scarlet Peach Blossom Sect. Nestled in the cloud-kissed Iron Bone Mountains, the Sect has enjoyed thousands of years of peace and has escaped the wider strife that usually follows cultivators. It is here that our cultivation story takes place, amongst the handful of core disciples of the Sect, as a dark and evil force tries to rip it apart from within.

—-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Greetings my friends! Welcome to my second game. I know many were hoping for CopGame2 but I suddenly had inspiration after three months of shotgunning xianxia stories right into my skull and decided to play around a little bit. This is a <<insert JoJo music>> ROLE MADNESS game about powerful mortals striving to achieve immortality, while fending off bad guys within their own group. So yeah, Mafia. Shell has graciously agreed to be my Co-Mod for the game.


There will be a special mechanic for this game. The Duel. In the Scarlet Peach Blossom Sect any Core Disciple may choose once to duel with any other Core Disciple using ##challenge, although the challenged party always has the right to ##refuse. This will result in a coin flip by the moderator to see who comes out on top. While a challenge may not result in death, death is possible.

In other words, you get one challenge and can use it to challenge any other player. If that player refuses, you keep your challenge. The one who refuses may get a small penalty for refusing, representing a lowering of status in the eyes of the Sect.
