Atreia is a kingdom in which everyone has magic to some degree; there are no 'muggles' or 'squibs.' Most people have only a small amount of magic--enough to light a fire, freeze or boil water, cast a clean spell, or sense if someone is near.
People born into a Lineage, however, have much stronger magic, and it is often concentrated in one particular type of magic--for example, elemental magic, demonic magic, mind magic, healing magic, weather magic, and so on. A person's Lineage does not limit the type of magic he can do, but it does indicate what his greatest ability is likely to be. Daughters more often than sons remain true to Lineage type.
Lineages and surnames are traced through the female line. Thus, a child takes the surname of his mother, not his father. There is no such thing as illegitimacy in Atreia. All children are the children of their mother. Married men hyphenate their surnames.
Characters in this game should be primarily human. Vampires, elves, and loup garoux are welcome. They will each have their own particular magical specialties, which I will leave to the first players of each race to decide.
Family Lineages are listed below. More than one Lineage can have a talent for the same kind of magic, but I'd like to keep duplication as low as possible.
Lineages and Fortes:
* Damien - Healing
* Rathleigh - Mindmagic
this group is rated PG-13. Serious issues of morals, ethics, and conscience will be covered in the RP, but we will not go into graphic details. Less is more.
