Alright here's a big update which'll be included in the Game Companion and OOC
1752. For the decades the Assassins and Templar’s have been fighting in the shadows, each seeking the destruction of the other. The colonies offer new possibilities for the world, free of the dark history surrounding Europe. Recently the Assassin Angus the Exile found a roster of names belonging to Templar’s who have set sail to the new Colonies. Their plans however are unknown. After much discussion between the many Brotherhoods across the world, it has been decided that a group of volunteers will be sent to the New Lands in the hopes of stopping the Templar’s and gaining one more step towards freedom for everyone.
The question stands though…will you join Freedoms’ Call?

Alright this is how this is going to work. Everyone will fill out the character template here. I’ll go into more detail about equipment below. We won’t be using some system to work out combat and such, instead in the OOC chat I’ll say “Alright you’ve got 3 guys with swords coming at you and muskeets on the rooftops, whatcha gonna do” then we’ll work it out. Mind everyone will not be in every battle, I’ll just tag if you’re involved or ask beforehand who’s available.
Also due to how long it can take to set things up like armies etc., I’ll be jumping time ahead per say so we aren’t all stuck camping by a fire waiting. They’ll be a date at the top and I’ll add in a timetable of whats happened. Feel free to fill in the gaps a little or backtrack before this started for character development etc just don’t jump ahead in time else we’ll have a problem in time and space only the Doctor could solve. If any posts don’t have date on top then presume is carrying on from the previous post.

Backstory:
Equipment
Primary Weapon:
Secondary Weapon:
Special:
EquipmentYour Primary weapon is your Assassin’s main weapon, one that he/she is most skilled with and will most likely use in combat. This includes swords, axes, clubs and any variations. You can choose to duel wield if they are one handed weapons.
Your Secondary Weapon is the small backup in case you are disarmed. This includes any small weaponary like knives or a secondary hidden blade but must be able to be wielded with one hand.
The Special is any type of exotic weapon not commonly found in a local area like the average sword. Ranged Weapons also fit into this. Feel free to check to see if something works or not with me.
Hidden blades are standard meaning everyone will have at least one.
Here’s an example who is also my guy:
Name: Angus the Exile
Age:33
Brief Description: See pictures above
Brief Backstory: Born in the Scottish Highlands to an Assassin father, Angus had been forced at the age of five to leave due to the Clan leaders’ influence (a Templar) who was rooting out any Assassin influence. After being taken away by a friend of the family, Angus started to train to become an assassin, by thirty two he returned to his home and assassinated the Clan leader. It is here that he found the templars’ roster.
Angus is a well-educated man, one who feels deeply about how justice should be served and a deep hatred of the Templar Order for what they have done to his family. At times he can seem cold and is more focused on the task at hand then being social.
Equipment
Primary Weapon: Sabre
Secondary Weapon: Secondary Hidden Blade
Special: Bow and Arrows
Here’s a map for reference on where we are and what happened during the French and Indian war though things might not go the same as they did on the map.
As usual any questions etc just ask away
