The worlds of Ziark, Arskar, and Dantask are three planets orbiting their twin stars on the same track. The triplet worlds of the twin stars are connected by a dimensional bridge known as the Prism. The Prism allows for instant travel between the planets at certain places of power. That's how it used to be, at least. Long ago, the Archangels of each world — messengers of the Pantheon — gifted each world a shard of the Crucible. These shards allowed the worlds to advance quickly, and though the shards were identical in power, the worlds did not use them the same way.

Ziark advanced its technology by leaps and bounds. Hover-transports, personal combat drones, and advanced projectile firearms are just a few of the advances made by Ziarkans. Arskar, by contrast, developed magical prowess beyond the ken of Ziark's engineers. Anything from summoning ancient spirits to using music as physical projectiles is possible. Dantask, still different, found the energy of their shard imbued into every living thing on the planet. While this made the humanoids — warriors of all kinds — battlers without peer, it also affected the flora and fauna. Where Ziark was tamed to full, and Arskar reached an accord with their planet, Dantask was survival of the fittest at its most pure form.

Even so, the peace between the planets has been steady, if not without skirmish. Now, though, the enemy is returning. Tensions are running high between the worlds, and all-out war seems nigh-inevitable. The archangels now seek out champions for the Pantheon once again, to lead the triplet worlds against their dark twins...

Hello there! My main inspirations for this RP are various ARPGs, such as Lost Ark. I'm hoping to include a loot system to improve characters, as well as perhaps leveling. It all depends on what the players are comfortable with.

The PCs will be allowed from any walk of life -- peasant, prince, gladiator, etc. They will be brought to the center of the Prism, where they will be given their quest and granted abilities beyond most mortals (think Over-the-Top such as an arrow rain from a single arrow shot to the air, and you'll be on the right track).

If you're still interested, please post below! If you have any questions or comments, or just want to chat, feel free to add it as well!
 
Interesting backdrop. Count me in!

Might do a peasant character, try to go for a rags-to-riches (or even a rags-to-comfort) type of progression!

Not super familiar with Lost Ark's system, but I can definitely read up on it!
