If You Are One of Us
Welcome one and all to Landlocked! Landlocked is an intermediate to advanced mostly wild dog RPG. There is a war unlike any the world has ever seen before: that of canine versus man, each trying to exterminate the other. However, there are still some dogs who remain loyal to the humans in the city (and vice-versa), or are still trying to claw their way out of it. You may play as domestic or wild dogs, wolves, or humans (there are boards for each of these). You may look bellow to see which characters are open for applications.
As this is intermediate-advanced, the word limit is 150 words. Feel free to go over the limit (we would love it if you did!) but don't feel pressured. Remember: quality over quantity...so long as it's 150 words or more =D

Many years ago, man and dog lived together in peace - or so they thought. For ages, dogs were content to work alongside their human partners, for that was what they believed they were. It only took one day for centuries of work and inter-species bonding to fall apart.
One dog rose above all others for not only could he anticipate the humans' moves, he could understand their language. It was he - one named Abraham Likely - who first discovered the degradation that his species was subject to. The humans were not their partners, but their masters. They were not friends, they were servants. All these years they had been holding dogs captive with false feelings of love and friendship, when behind their backs they were "stupid, useless creatures" and to many far worse.
Abraham Likely convinced his fellow dogs to revolt, and through the legendary Dawn Bark, every canine in town soon knew that they would live with their "partners" no longer. When the clock tower struck twelve - no sooner, no later - every dog for miles around rose and attacked his human slave driver.
The men who kept their lives drove the dogs out of their town and into the lands surrounding it, and walled themselves in, attempting to keep the savage beasts out.
Now, walled in by mountains on every side, the dogs have nothing to do but wait and plot their revenge. Many of them would rather forget the humans and move on, and some have tried...and all have died. They are landlocked.
By member, of course, we mean character. We're just odd that way.
MotM will be chosen on the 15th of every month and will go to those characters who stand out that month. The winner's beautiful face will be posted here.
