Welcome


Welcome to Aquitaine, an intermediate to advanced Alternate History role-playing game. This game takes place during the year of 1514 in the newly established country of Aquitaine and its European neighbours, and will eventually expand further into the future. There will be good times and bad times for the characters here as they enter a time rife with as much pleasure as there is peril. We hope you decide to join and become part of our RP-ing family!

Character of the Month: July



Emma Hirst

"Emma loved people, and if she could make them happy, that was good enough for her."

Emma Hirst is the youngest daughter of the Hirst family, and has never aspired to anything beyond her God-given station in life. Quiet and kind-hearted, the girl goes about her business in a compassionate and muted manner, entirely unaware of the ambitious plans being made for her by her family. A friendly, innocent person, she brings a balance to the more rough-around-the-edges characters prevalent on the board. No matter what's going on, one can trust that Emma will be looking for the silver lining of the situation.

Quote of the Week


The people, chaos, ran all around, And no one could nail sanity down. The building, it just burned to the ground. You heard it here, the place is changed. I'm telling you, the place is changed. It's changed!

- Fortune Fortescue, Of Music and Wine, No Cheese

I'm A Doctor, Not A Mercenary

While recovering from a mauling in the field Commander Shaft's Iscariot Legion has set up camp near an old Monastery in England. During a routine trip to the nearby town for supplies their man Thurgold was assaulted and injured by highwaymen. One naive failed-monk, Galahad stepped in to play the role of good Samaritan and helped get the man back to his friends. Now the quiet and kind doctor must deal with the Iscariot's cold commander and its most eccentric scout, Ace, if he wants to continue his role as nurse and bring his healing touch to the ill-used men of the mercenary-legion.


Year of our Lord: 1514


Season: Summer
Weather: This is the season where the sun is almost always out and shining. Sea travel during the Summer is much safer than during the Winter, and many take advantage of this fact. Expect hot weather, soaring temperatures, and even the occasional light shower.

Paris
Despite the crown favouring quarters elsewhere, Paris remains the capital of the Kingdom of France, and an influential city. Like London, the positioning of the settlement allows for fantastic trade opportunities, and thus enriches the citizens. Not quite the forerunners of fashion, however plenty flock here to help distribute the new ideas coming from Italy. Just as magnificent as any other city, Paris is no backwater city, and stands proudly for the French that call it their capital.

Calais
A fiercely contested harbour, the people of Calais are no strangers to war and violence. Their position on the north coast of France allows them plenty of links with those in the North Sea and England. The residents are well versed in both cultures, having been conquered by both time and time again. Now however, the city is in the hands of the French, having struck against their English foes to banish them from the continent entirely. It is the stepping stone to the English shores, and a major manufacturer of ships for the northern front.

Marseille
The most prominent city in the south, Marseille commands the French coast, keeping track of the roaming Germanics, Italians and rebellious Swiss. At the same time the harbour city looks out onto the turbulent Mediterranean, which while giving access to plenty of rich trade routes, also leaves it open to the attention of all of Europe. Considered the capital of the south, Marseille has numerous responsibilities while being crowded on all sides. However, it's position allows it to buy into the most up-to-date information and technology, and draws a rabble of wealthy individuals.
