The Sachi Scroll
The Sachi Scroll... said to bring eternal happiness to the one who should discover it, because it can grant that person one wish. Anything their heart desires can become reality by reading the Scroll. But such happiness as is brought by the Sachi Scroll comes with a price. The creator of the Sachi Scroll was very careful in hiding his ultimate creation, so, blindly searching is the only way to find it. The only clue that has been left to finding the Sachi Scroll is the following phrase: "It is better to climb to the top of a mountain yourself than it is to have someone carry you the whole way up." No one understood why the creator of the Sachi Scroll thought this was a valid hint in finding the Scroll, but since the creator died long ago, no one could ask for clarification of the statement. Therefore, scholars attempting to better understand this strange hint simply had to take the literal meaning of by assuming that the Sachi Scroll could be found on a mountaintop.
A random mix of characters from all walks of life are bound together by fate, all searching for the same thing: the Sachi Scroll. Each has their own desire, their own mission in life to complete. And so the journey begins...
Out of Character (OoC): The above is the basic premise of this RPG, the Sachi Scroll. Anyone can join this RPG whenever they want to. Please put a character description before you start playing; you know, the usual information. Also, it is requested, but not mandatory, for the character to put in his/her character bio the reason they are searching for the Sachi Scroll. If you'd rather keep it a secret, that's fine, but it might be better to have more information on each character. In the end, the choice is truly yours. If you want powers, weapons, whatever, put it into your bio so everyone else knows you have them too. But no ultimate killing things or whatever, or spells to instantly locate the Scroll. That would make the game no fun, so don't spoil it for everyone, okay? All the characters will search for the Scroll together, so we better all be able to get along without completely killing each other or something. Tension between characters is welcomed and, dare I say, even encouraged, to keep the story interesting. Characters may have the same reasons for looking for the Scroll, but it's more fun to be original, wouldn't you say?

The search for the Sachi Scroll begins in Rosha'tier, a town located in the center of this world known simply as Fay. There is a mountain at each corner of the world, each named for the compass direction which it is at: North Mountain, East Mountain, South Mountain, and West Mountain. It is thought that the Sachi Scroll lies atop one of these mountains, but there are no clues as to which one to look on first. Which mountain will the characters choose first? What perils lie on each mountain? Will the Sachi Scroll ever be found? Let's find out...
