Foxcraft: In the Distance
This is a fan roleplay based off the foxcraft series.
Rules:
•All basic forum rules
•Look up some background of the foxcraft words and history, if you wish I would like if you did but its not necessary
•Always create a character sheet to be accepted
•Look at the rules every so often to see if they have been changed (the might not be though)
•2 foxes maximum, only one can be captured by the Taken and only if the taken goes after your character
•Only two foxcraft arts per character and they can not be masters at that foxcraft
•All foxcraft uses your maa. A fox can be born with a weak Maa. You can die from loss of maa. Sleep can gain back some maa but if at a dangerous level of maa theres only one way out
•Each foxcraft can only last 3 posts, weather they are yours or not.
NOTE: This is not a POWER roleplay. Though foxcraft is similar to powers but it is not. They are like spells and they have rules to them.
Plot:
The word has spread around about a young fox, Isla, is trying to find her brother. She has spoken to the Foxcraft Elders and asked them to agree to letting out some of the secrets of foxcraft. Now foxes everywhere are learning foxcraft for the sake of their own protection agents the taken. Yet the foxes, not smelling of ash and tasting like a rotting copse, have dwindled quickly. It is feared the only chance of survival is to flee from the home they've known for so long.
History/Other Knowledge:
•Wolves are pack animals not friendly to foxes, live in the north, fearless, and powerful
•Dogs need humans to survive, the live in the grey lands with the humans, they are protective only of their owners land
•Foxes are known for their trickery, dogs and wolves despise them, they think they are the perfect and favored by their god (i cant remember the name of)
•Malinta- Im pretty sure this is the beginning of spring or its the longest day of the year... I cant remember exsactly
•The Gloaming-The night before Malinta
Foxcraft Arts
•Karakking-easiest foxcraft, Imitating the call of other creatures. The technique allows the fox to "throw" his or her voice, so it appears to come from elsewhere. Used to attract prey or confuse attackers
•Slimmering-Stilling the breath and mind to create the illusion of invisibility.Used to avoid detection
Chant: "What is seen is unseen, what is sensed becomes senseless. What is bone is bending, what was fur is air."
•Wa'akkir-Shapeshifting into another creature. Misuse of wa'akkir can lead to injury and premature death. Its practice is subject to ritual and rites that are closely guarded by the elders.
Chant: "I am the fur that ruffles your back, I am the twist and shake of your tail. Let me appear in the shape of your body: no one can tell; others will fear; dare not come near!"
•Maa-Sharm-Maa is the energy and essence of all living things. Maa-sharm transfers maa from one fox to another. Used to heal frail or wounded foxes.
Chant: "What was seen is unseen; what was sensed is senseless. What was bone is bending; what was fur is air."
•Gerra-Sharm-Gerra is the thinking center of living beings- the mind. Gerra-sharm shares gerra with another fox. Gerra-sharm is rare- a forgotten art- and can only be performed by foxes with an intense, intuitive bond
•Shana-Sharm-The fusing of wills to weave shana. Used by the Elders to protect the Elder Rock during malinta and the gloaming.
Chant: "Come together, rays of light; comfort me in deadly night. Weave a wall of thickest mist; every fiend and foe resist."
•Pashanda-A trance where knowledge is summoned from the winds. Used to sense the approach of friends or foes
•Pleaching-The weaving of minds (Gerra) with another creature. Pleaching is to the mind what Wa'akkir is to the body. Its practice is perilous, as the stronger will can overwhelm and dominate the weaker (NOT AVAILABLE TO PICK AS A FOXCRAFT ART)
