    Open Chronicles The Heart of the Taiga

    Taketan Teahouse, nestled between the fringe of the Taagi Baara Steppes and the River Sayve ... I've never been one for long conversations, self-reflection or thinking things through. Instead, I've always been what they call a "doer", at least that was the phrased used in my motherland. Don't...

    Roleplay OOC Peace of the Grave (Taagi Baara Steppes)

    So, seeing as how I'm a newcomer to this site and I'd like to get my feet wet, I would like to start my first ever thread in the Ixmus Graveyard for some undead slaying. I'm a very flexible RP-er and I'm more than willing to bounce ideas off my coplayers. The basic premise behind this thread is...

    Fable - Ask The Bastard of Shān-jìn-tóu

    Shān-jìn-tóu Deep within the The Erdeniin Dynasty The wind started at the tip of one of The Spine's many peaks and roared across the Taagi Baari Steppes like a pack of rabid wolves, tearing apart fields of carefully cultivated crops, and causing farmer hands to mutter about the indecisiveness...

    Private Tales Distressed to Impress

    The ruins were jagged like a cicada's shell. Roofs collapsed, beams sticking in the air, bones sprouting from the corpses of homes-no-more. What had murdered this place? A fire? Sweeping through the town after a candle burnt too low? Maybe a rockslide? Heavy rains could deglove mountains and...

    Fable - Ask Sinister Tricks and Scary Treats

    “I didn’t know this area was called Eagle Head,” Zaire said plainly to whoever would listen out of the six initiates chosen to go on this “harrowing” expedition. “Or Eagle Eye. But, I really don’t like geography. Can’t wait for the day when someone makes a map that tells you where to go. They’ll...

    Private Tales Karakorum

    THE ARENA OF KARAKORUM Every four years, warriors gathered. From across the world they came to the Taagi Baara Steppe. The Steppe Portal Stone flooded with activity, and instead of heading northwest to Dornoch as most travelers did, these warriors all went northeast, deeper into the untamed...

    Ferelith had been walking for days.. If she remembered where she had come from it was long lost in the breaks.. The parts of her mind that simply held only white. She knew her name..

    Private Tales One Steppe At A Time

    Taagi Baara Steppes Sometime ago The grasslands stretched for as far as the eye could see. Standing up in her stirrups, Captain Agatha of the Blackshields cast her eyes towards the horizon. The ever-present sun glared down at her as she did, bathing her and the company in light. Sweating...

    Private Tales The Runic Path

    As one weighted blow after another struck the heated ingot of blackened iron, gouts of crimson sparks burst outwards. Their transient journey brightened the Smithy and its surroundings for but a fleeting moment. What could be seen by the most casual of observers was that this forge was of...
  11. Yulsel

    Open Chronicles Bone Orchard, Burnt Heath

    A cloying, greasy smoke was in the air, visible black against the grey sky from miles away. Yulsel gave a sharp whistle to his eagle, Wolfsbane. She was to abandon the prairie-dog she was tailing and follow him. He rode quickly to the smoke's source. It was a mass grave. Swinging himself in...

    Fate - First Reply A Story to Share

    Taagi Baara Steppes - a few days’ travel west of Bhathairk After another long day of travel with strangers, Yøren was glad to reach a town. He had joined a loose company of pilgrims and poor travelers moving west. It was quite the mixed crowed, mostly orcs, as one would expect, but he was not...

    LFG Looking for a Group on the Steppe

    I am not sure if I am looking in the wrong place, I tried the tag and all the RP threads on the Steppes are closed or from years ago. I am hoping to join an RP there, ideally somewhere along the north coast. I have a character, Yøren, who is traveling there. It would be nice for it to be either...

    Fate - First Reply Freedom is never given; it is won

    Crows reeled cawing in the sky above the Steppes like a menacing black cloud. Every now and then one or two would dive to land amongst the bodies strew over the loping hillside. As they did two or three more on the other side would fly up, disturbed up a soldier searching amongst the bodies. The...

    Private Tales Reunion of Wayward Winds

    The job to make that orc wizard leave his home, or dungeon as some called it, hadn't ended well for Weylin. He found the mage at the end of the tunnel dead slumped over a table. Scrolls and paper beneath him. A quill in his hand. The ink in the pot was dry. The dead orc had no coins to pay what...

    Private Tales Out of the Frying Pan

    Valeraine was really getting tired of this. She had no idea how many of these rookies they’d sent after her, she’d lost count, and it was a real annoyance, an insult almost. She’d killed lesser kings in public and was never caught, so the fact that they thought newbies could take her down was an...

  18. Trajan Meng

    Private Tales Deposing the Warlord Gromagg Ur

    Trajan. A distant voice, hollow and echoing as if at the end of a tunnel. Dim awareness of pain above his brow. In his head. All throughout his chest. Dull. Throbbing. Trajan! He opened his eyes, yet all things were a blur. Form and color blended, and in this the lurid bleeding of the...

    Open Chronicles Ambition, Unrestrained

    This is his mission, his purpose, his very birthright in this world so full of food. He already had himself a great deal of warriors, but the shamans told him he needed more, so many more, enough orcs to carpet the land, like a sea of violence and blood thirst. For this, he knew it was necessary...

    Open Chronicles Trouble on the Steppes

    Blood and carnage follow wherever they go... They know of savagery even greater than most others... Those who stand against them are swept up in the tide of violence... Murder, cannibalism, devastation, gluttony, they are all too aware of these things... Many know them as the Flesh-Rend...
