Cruinthe was once a prosperous land, one where peace was commonplace, and the wealth was growing. The people loved their king, and their royal family, and all was right with the world. The birds sang, the waters were clean, the trees were green, and the townsfolk gossiped and worked and lived on happily.
But it wouldn't last forever.
The city of Helkorth had fallen into darkness. It's Lord who was under the King's command was assassinated by a Demon, and the townsfolk were slaughtered and raised into the horrid undead. That's when the war commenced. The armies of darkness moved across the plains and forests of Cruinthe, and with every foe slain, their undead ranks were bolstered. Soon the towns in Everglade forest were taken over, first Morith, it's defenders were caught off guard and were no match for the undead forces. Then Rosterford fell, followed by Innorsford.
The Demon's victory seemed complete as its armies closed in on Sorath. But it was met with fierce opposition by the King's armies, and was pushed back to the largest forest in Cruinthe.
The forests were renamed to the Haunted wood, and the Dark forest by their current ruler, the Demon King Cuel Squ'al Ta'al. The plains outside of Helkorth were renamed the Shattered plains. Battle was often joined there, and the armies of the King shattered upon it's face. Like a howling rabid beast the undead came back from the brink of annihilation again, and again. With every failed siege, more joined the ranks of the demons and undead.
A year ago, the King himself rode into battle to dethrone the dark and evil demon lord of Helkorth, but was slain in one on one battle with his quarry just outside the fortress town gates. Now his only living relative rules Fordeth, and the remaining free lands. His daughter the princess, Melissa Justea.
Melissa Justea, unfortunately for the free peoples of Cruinthe, lacks the much needed military experience to effectively combat the threat. She appointed a general to lead the military until she learned enough from her advisers and the general to lead herself.
The Undead War has only just begun. The noble warriors of the Cruinthe Defense Forces have been more than brave, fighting and dying at the hands of the undead. Sworn to protect all that is good and holy in the world. They have completed many missions, and saved many lives. Giving up their own in holy combat.
Now the Alliance does battle against the undead and their demonic masters. They fight on with the champions of the light by their side. Some are favored souls by the Gods of the Light, and become legendary in their own right. Each has a story to tell, how they began, what happened to them. How did they become a legend, a hero, a savior?
Are You A Hero? Or A Villain?

Requirements
There aren't any literacy requirements. If you can read and write in English, you're good to go. If you can understand what's going on in the plot, and such, you're good to go. If you can roleplay in character in the areas that are designated for that, you're good to go. If you're spelling and grammar aren't so hot, we understand, and will help you grow by giving you plenty of examples to follow. There are no post size requirements, we just ask that it is not a single line that you give us to work with.
Notes[/u]
Cruinthe is guaranteed to be a new experience for you, and a challenging one at that. No more nonsense about wearing ten different pieces of armor at once, no more disputes about whether or not your enemy is defeated or dead. With our roleplay systems, that's all taken care of in a way that's fair and makes perfect sense.
Organization and fairness are key parts of maintaining Cruinthe. Your turn will only ever be skipped in a large and important thread if you're inactive for a large period of time. Missions and Quests are progressive, fun, well-planned, and are player driven. Making you the members part of the story.
Ever get pissed off at how a new character starts off with an overpowered attack? You'll never get that here. The skill sets, classes and ranks are designed so that your character gets stronger over time, as it should be.
Overall, Cruinthe War has a lot to offer, and though we may not be the most literarily advanced board, we are one of the most fair boards when it comes down to actual game play.
