Asgard Genesis


ASGARD GENESIS

❧ welcome, dear wanderer...
Within a breath, a heartbeat, between one step and then next - one moment you're there, and the next you're not. It's like closing your eyes only just to blink, yet the next time they open, you feel as though you've woken from a dream. Or is this the dream? The room around you is stark white with faint and intricate golden trails, almost glowing with unseen natural light, and the bed beneath you is plush like sitting on a cloud. Around each of your wrists is a thick, silver band of a metal you don't recognize; there is a large, colorless crystal in the center of each, and if you inspect the bracelets closer, the light in the room glances off the smooth surface of the metal in way that almost makes you think there might be something like writing on it. But as soon as you still, the markings vanish from sight, and that's when a door you didn't notice opens.

A tall, graceful woman enters with someone trailing behind her, seemingly curious and excited and nervous all at once. Only the first speaks, and when she does, her voice feels soothing and warm like the softest blanket you've ever wanted to melt into.
"We're so glad you're awake," she says with a smile. "I'm sure you have many questions, but unfortunately, we don't have very many answers just yet, and time is of the essence right now. Please, come meet my family so we can take you under our protection until we've got this all figured out. It may not be under the most ideal of circumstances but," she pauses, a quiet and bittersweet sort of excitement in her eyes, "welcome to Asgard, dear Wanderer."


❧ the birth of the holy city...
Asgard Genesis is a panfandom jamjar RP based loosely off of Norse mythology and inspired by (but not chronologically connected to) its original incarnation, Asgard Eventide. The tale of Asgard Genesis is, ultimately, one of impending war... If the city survives long enough to see it. The gods are currently very, very weak, and despite what they say (and genuinely believe, most days), they're unable to protect the Wanderers from many of the things that threaten the Asgard of today. Some, they have yet to even learn of, let alone understand.

This arc of the metaplot is largely focused on a strengthening Asgard .vs. the world around them. Though Wanderers have been granted new magic to wield by the gods to aid them, Yggdrasil's magic is wild and unpredictable, sometimes beyond the mortal ability to fathom. Yet the only way for Asgard (and the gods who fuel it) to grow and strengthen is to send Wanderers out into the realms ensconced by that dangerous magic and to face what threats lie beyond. There is also an emphasis on building/advancing the city itself via what amounts to day jobs alongside or independent from the local gods, which will unlock perks for both the city and the player-characters ("Wanderers").

( ! ) Asgard is under a new mod team working to revitalize the game and attract new players. Changes to the powers system are coming to both simplify them and to give players more fun magic to play with, so please check us out!
