Once the shining jewel of the south, fabled for its wealth and power, Lhesa vanished from history hundreds of years ago, and faded into myth and legend. Some stories claim that a natural disaster destroyed much of the city, and the survivors fled. Some say that the people of Lhesa fell to decadence and sin, and their undoing came at the hands of barbarian invaders, or the vengeful hand of their own angry gods. Now, a map has been found, claiming to show the location of the fabled city. An undisclosed financier is putting together an expedition to follow the map and find the city. Untold dangers and incredible treasures await those daring enough to take up the quest! Set sail from Rondon, and write your name in the history books... OOC: This is intended to be a pulp-style action-adventure for a small group of explorers and treasure-hunters in the vein of Queen of the Black Coast, Congo, and Temple of Doom. Looking for 3-5 interested players. - Players are expected to keep a reasonable posting rate. A general speed of 1-2 posts per day is fine, missing a day here and there is fine, I’m not a stickler. - Extremely powerful characters will not enjoy this, and neither would the people going with them. If your character has nothing to fear from poison darts, falling rocks, bottomless pits, venomous animals, sharpened sticks, and other such hazards, maybe this isn’t the quest for you. - Extremely weak characters that will constantly need to be rescued from such hazards will need to have some sort of relevant skill to explain why anyone would bring you along. Apply in the thread below. The quest will begin as soon as a reasonable team has been put together.

Feanor Vala
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 132
Age: 79
Physical Description: He is a tall, sturdily built elf, with long blonde hair and hazel eyes. He is a bit taller than most Esdaran males, at a height between 6'2" and 6'3". His typical elfin figure is a lot stronger than it appears, and is clearly battle-scarred from years in the service.
Clothes and Equipment: His equipment is the basic gray-silver-whitish armor of the Esdaran army. A longbow with an accompanying arrow quiver is always slung across his back when not in use, and a battleaxe is always found at his hip or in his hand. Daggers are hidden in his boots and one inside of his belt, in addition to additional straps across his armor that can be used to stow and/or hide additional equipment as necessary.

I'd be happy to lend my eyes to your expedition. A bird's eye view brings quite the advantage.

Well, after you guys jumped on board right off, things seem to have slowed down a bit. How do you guys feel about going for it with the three of you?
(I'm not calling it yet, but if anyone else is thinking about getting in on this, now is the time to speak up)

Over these he wears a grey colored cloak complete with a hood that is waterproof and also quite light. His boots are quite well made, sturdy and also possessing excellent traction.
