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!
When registering please do so with the first and last name of your character.

"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!
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.
Madrid The capital and largest city in all of Spain, Madrid was established as such only a few years earlier with the unification of the two Kingdoms, Castille and Aragon. It is a place of beauty and extravagance. Following all the latest fashions, and keeping tabs on the newest trends on the continent the city is lavishly decorated in wonderful architecture, the populace always dressed to impress in the pleasant sunshine that often rains down on the buildings.
Zaragoza The old capital of the Kingdom of Aragon, Zaragoza has now been demoted to a border city. With it's previous nature, the city is brilliantly decorated, and is inhabited by upstanding citizens, considering the location. Thankfully, with their crown affording the neighbouring Aquitaine a peaceful hand there is little to worry about for now, but international politics are temperamental things.
