Chibera is now throwing its first writing contest!
Basic Storyline of Chibera
We welcome you to Chibera, a land that is still recovering from being torn apart and mutated by an explosion that was caused by a mana experiment centuries ago. Because of this accident, a tree was mutated into what is now called the world tree, along with the mutation of humans, elves, dwarves, and animals which lead to the rise of multiple new intelligent bipedal species.
Some races are now fully dependent on the mana for technological, economic, cultural reasons and some even need to consume it just to survive. This has caused a rift between some of the factions and a fight for control over as much of the resource as possible. The only mana sources now in the world are hard mana crystal deposits and the power that the world tree provides which is the only replenishing resource. This has lead to factions fighting for the resource for their own selfish reasons.
Write a role-playing style story for your character.
Example:
This town feels so strange. I've never seen so many kinds of people and such an abundance of beautiful people dress very nice. I hope it's not to hard to find work, so I can have nice things like them and show them I'm something more than just a country bumpkin.
Since arriving in this land I'm finding many things that remind me of my friends and family. I hope they're doing well, and miss rover( Sheepdog ) I really wish I could have brought him.
Side notes:
Adding side story to the character, like how a friend or friends have come with you on your journey. Maybe talking about the weapons you're looking to find and the journey to find those items. Adding depth to your story can go a long way.
Basics to work with:
- Races: Elf, Humans, Dark elf, Dwarf
- locations: mountains, seaside, grasslands, forests

Write a great artical @chibera .I am fully interested in Chibera . I can Resteem your post ?
You don't have to ask to resteem, that's what people WANT other people to do! :D
ok .thanks for your information
Wow, this is cool! Will the story be implemented in the game if we win the contest?
As Chibera community-mod I can tell you emphatically "maybe" but since it's so early in dev that we haven't fully released any specific details of the storyline, we cannot be sure submissions will be appropriate or "fit" into the meta story. This contest is about your story, as a player, so in essence, sure, if the game comes out and your story fits the idea of the character you end up choosing to play, then yes? You can be you all day! :D
I like your answer! :) That's what RPG should be!
thank you!
You're welcome :)
And I've also written a submission :)

Cool, checking it out!
Hope you liked it!
Oh yeah improv I am going to take a que from you.... are you much of a role player? I bet the acting thing helps :)
I LOVE RPGs. I love vampire, especially, in theory, but it's been a while since I've gotten to just play.
That is so true, sometimes I think I love the idea of rpg's more than anything, since I haven't really been able to immerse myself in one since childhood.
Going to look up vampire!
It's officially Vampire: the Requiem
