Birdmen

Birdmen is a Fantasy RP I'm designing, centered around a time period in another reality, where guns are beginning to be widespread, and the plague is overtaking the entire world. Magic exists, and enchanters have produced numerous 'birdmasks' for those who can afford them, and mercs willing to pledge allegiance to the enchanters and nobles.

The plague, something far different from what we know, is a disease that is spread by air, blood, and water. To those it infects, it slowly transforms them into 'husks,' walking corpses that seek out others, usually to infect them as well.

In this Victorian Age society, years into the Plague Era, Trinityville has been divided into several factions. The Nobles, the Crows, the Doves, the Vultures, and of course, the Husks.

The Nobles are the rich and powerful, consisting of Enchanters and those well beyond rich before the Plague years. Living in fancy, large homes, they have no fear of the plague, as their existence is so far removed from standard society, that it would take an army of husks to so much as make it to their front yards. They hire the Crows and Doves to do their bidding, typically to cut down the numbers of Husks, and to prevent the actions of Vultures.

The Crows are essentially a hired military, people given weapons and enchanted plaguemasks as long as they do the bidding of the Nobles. Consisting of the common man, they are given orders and are expected to fulfill them. Coming from all sorts of backgrounds, there's no 'standardized' Crow, besides some form of Plaguemask and some form of weapon.

The Doves are magicians, those skilled in magic, but lacking in the department of enchanting. Typically consisting of healers or other magic types, they are famed for their abilities to heal early plague symptoms and burn corpses of the infected.

The Vultures are bands of scavengers and raiders, picking apart the ruined wasteland of Trinityville for whatever is left, be it gold or weapons. Equipped with stolen items and their own band of healers, they pose the only real threat to the Nobles of Trinityville.

Would anyone be interested in RPing something from this? I could even make maps of the locations.

Please let me know if you're interested!

If this is even still being considered, I'd be up for it. It seems really interesting.
