OOC: Its a RP forum in a Runescape Forum and I was surprised at the total lack of Runescape based RPs. I'm going to see why this is for myself. At the Galava RP forums I was known for my lengthy, violent, pushy and long RPs. However being a F2P I must keep this RP in the F2P area, but because it is so small I am going to expand slightly on the size of the cities and wilderness. For example the Lumbridge Swamp will be a vast wilderness encompassing over 200 miles, the goblin village has thousands of citizens and so forth, due to his I have edited the map slightly. I might also mix in my own monsters and such. But the mythology and history will all be Runescape.

This RP will be simple a party of adventurers will be chasing after a rogue Elite Falador Guard captain and his comrades after they went berserk and slew dozens of adventurers, many who were not guilty of any crimes for no apparent reason. It will take us all over the F2P area which will be much larger then in the game and even out into a few areas I made up myself.

I sincerely hope I can pull this off. I'm used to Empire Based Role Playing boards so what is canon is usually established by the board. This will be different.

When it comes to a battle I will mostly let you do your own thing but I will keep an eye out for anything ridiculous or just wouldn't happen. Like if a volley of arrows is fired at the party, I consider dodging to be a very wrong solution and will make anybody who tries that without giving a very good reason for it to work to be hit.

Also I will throw in some riddles.

I am also only going to pretty much ignore the way the game lets one become a master at everything. For this RP assume your character isn't capable of mastering archery, Whips, Magic, Swordsmanship, Spears, Carpentry, Mining, Smithing, All forms of Crafting, Axeman ship ect. Make them more realistic.

A crowd was gathering near the north gate of Falador, the atmosphere was heavy and fear lingered strongly in the air. The bright summer sun seemed to bleach the colors out of the day and Demut knew something very bad had happened.

He pushed his way through the crowd only to see the carnage with his own two eyes. Nearly two dozen adventurers, guards and civilians lay dead, most of the killed with a well aimed thrust to the throat. A lowly wizard adventurer was passing out mind runes to many of the more distraught onlookers to help them calm down.

Demut's throat dried and he found himself unable to swallow. He closed his eyes and prayed to Zamorrak for strength before slowly opening them and forcing the words out of his throat, "What happened?"

A woman turned to him, she was clutching a mind rune which she was obviously using for emotional strength and she told Demut the whole story very calmly, a unnatural calm, brought on by the rune, "Just thirty minutes the captain and over two dozen of his elite guards came out of the guardhouse and relieved the guards at the gate. This was very unusual as the elite guard were generally reserved for emergencies. In just a few-"

The mind rune she was holding was starting to crumble as its power was expended and soft sobs caught in her throat.

"-just a few minutes they-they started" she broke into open tears "killing everyone! My son! My only son!" She waved towards the body of a young boy who was being clutched by an equally dead adventuring archer who must have tried to save him.

It took a few more minutes but Demut finally got the rest of the story. Apparently after the captain and his elite guard slaughtered all these people and adventurers, including a few city guards that tried to stop them, he, and his men, took off before any retaliation could be mounted.

Why this happened Demut couldn't fathom but he knew his duty was clear.

He stood up as tall as he could and shouted, "We must follow them before they cause more bloodshed, those with the courage come to me!"
