And hey, I got a question [@Aristo]. Could we get some basic history/lore stuff? Like when was the Church founded? Stuff that won't really be changed by the nations we end up with.

Yes; I've been working on the lore recently and will add what I have to the OP this evening. I'd originally planned to put the OOC IP after completing all that, but that'd surely have delayed us further.

At the RP's start, the year is 1588. The Fiorentinan faith is a relatively new phenomenon, considering it took hold just some thousand years ago. It existed prior as a decentralized cult, until it became the official religion of the empire that once encompassed the Fiorentinan states. Just 400 years ago, the empire fell and gave birth to our kingdoms as we know them today.
