In Chevileaux, magic is taboo and considered culturally degenerate. This is not a belief held in many other places in the world, but this country believes this because they’ve directly tied their success to the domination and taming of nature, and ultimately magic due to its inherent connection to nature
To use magic in Chevileaux is to reject all of the work that those before you had done, it is to reject the notion of being civilized
Chevileaux is, as you may have guessed, one of the world’s hegemonies. They fight to keep territory in the name of spreading civilized and modern practices, such as the rejection of magic In these territories they hold “re-education” camps, where they “teach” the native populace how to “live without magic” by having them process their local resources by hand during most of their waking hours
Starting out the game in the Chevileaux city of Cerremoule, each of the members of the hopefully to be party had been approached by an eccentric wealthy old man who needed a group of people to investigate a magical phenomena happening Since he can't convince the town guards to come check out what’s happening on his property he’s willing to pay 35 Gold to each person he hires, which is enough to buy a horse in this town

If you would like to join, I HIGHLY encourage you to make a character who doesn't have the exact same view on magic as the rest of Chevileaux does, perhaps you had a pretty good interaction with magic in your past and it's left you with mixed feelings, or you're from another part of the world traveling and are actually having to conceal your magical abilities in order to fulfill an objective you have in Chevileaux. I'm more than happy to talk out ideas for character creation, especially since this world is very flushed out and varies a bit from traditional fantasy :)
PBP- For those who don't know, PBP stands for Play By Post, which means that this game will be text based and instead of playing at set times we respond to the game whenever we have time to, just like having a conversation over text
