[b]Starting Country:[/b] Eastern Kievan Rus(The triangle shaped region at the far east) [b]Name of Nation:[/b] Kraean Horde [b]Race Name:[/b] Kraean [b]Race Leader:[/b] Destroyer Spero [b]Race Leader Physical Description:[/b] horribly disfigured. The head of a frilled lizard with parts of it burned black. Two figured wings one white, shrunken, and bent backward, the other is normal sized but the feathers are completely burnt black and constantly falling off, often letting a peak at thn blood red bones that lay beneath. Tdihe limbs of this figures are a ugly mix of short and long, scales and feathers, big and small, burnt and clean. The only thing they have in common are the extremely long and sharp claws located on each limb. The body is muscular but burnt black in many places and covered in a mix of scales and white or black feathers. This is the main description that many of the Kraeans agree on as few have seen their master [b]Race Leader Significant Traits:[/b] Complete control: It is said that his voice alone can strike such fear into any being that they lose complete control over themselves, left alone they will go insane and commit suicide but that is only if they are left alone, as said they lose complete control of themselves and will listen to whatever the Destroyer tells them to do. This is known to be one of the methods that gave the Destroyer control over the leaders of the Kraeans. This method can be used by any Kraean and is how leaders are selected. Military brilliance: Said to be the creation of the two greatest minds of the previous world, one military and one of master diplomat. The destroyer can find the best way to completely smash the enemy into oblivion. No one is said to be able to match his mind. But it is said that the destroyer has two minds as a side effect of this great mind. Rage: The destroyer as like all of the Kraeans experienced the destruction of the previous world first hand but he is one of the few that witnessed what appeared after the end. That single moment after the destruction is said to have warped his mind so much that he goes into a insane rage state that he feels nothing and only wants the destruction of those in front of him. It is rumored that it is possible to spread this rage among this army. Fearless: Fear isn't a word known by the Destroyer, had he known it, it was forgotten when he saw the end. It is said that nothing less than the complete destruction of the world and everything on it can scare him. [b]Race Physical Description:All members of the Kraean Horde are horribly disfigured in someway. Their skin is a gruesome mix of blackened scales and feathers. No two faces are alike, some have three eyes, some large beaks with razor sharp teeth inside and outside, and others no face at all. They all have sharp claws but their limbs are a combination of lbig and small, long and short, feathers and scales, and other things beyond worse than demons. They in general are a horriflying mix of lizard and bird. Some also have frills[/b] [list]- Male Appearances: : Currently males and females look alike as the merge caused such disfiguration that it is nearly impossible to tell whether a Kraean is male or female or a mix of both. - Female Appearances: Said above[/list] [b]Use of Magic: In the previous world the two races were as different as could be. The Krakons used no magic at all but the Horeans were masters of healing magic. But since the entrance into this world, they have mastered new abilities that can only be described as magic. There are currently few types of this new magic that can only be described as horriflying.ac Rage: This form of magic varies among the users, it is split into two parts, activation, and active. Activation is caused by the leader of a group of Kraeans, with a scream that can't be described the lesser Kraeans are turned into mindless beings that charge the enemy relentlessly, the power of the Activation affects the Active part as the Destroyer would have a more powerful activation than one of his generals. The second part, active is when the magic has been commenced. This is the part that greatly varies, the lesser Kraeans that were put into this state of rage can stay in this state for many days or just a few hours. They can also go into a intense rage where they can't feel pain even if one is stabbed in the heart or they can retreat at the first wound. Fear: This can't really be told as a form as it's more of a mastered control of the enemies fear. Every Kraean has this ability even if it is small. Extremely powerful Kraeans can strike such Fear into an enemy that they completely freeze up. This method is often used to smash the front lines of an army to oblivion before they can stop Kraeans. [/b] [b]Life Span:[/b] [list] – Male Lifespan: unknown the merge is said to have varied the lifespan of these creatures so much that it can range from a few years to many hundred - Female Lifespan: same as above [/list] [b]Reproduction Rate: How Kraeans reproduce is unknown but what is known is that they reproduce extremely fast. The downside is that the many of the hatchlings don't survive to adulthood. The ones that do survive are put on the front lines and are often killed in battle early, the real reproduction rate is for the strong Kraeans that survive to grown strong and become the part of the main army which is extremely small compared to the front line. The weak Kraeans are called the Slaughter Batch, One female has around 10 eggs per year but only about 3 survive to fight on the front lines. The stronger Kraeans are called the Golden Breed, they are much rarer with 1 born for every 4 females per year. The Slaughter Batch Kraeans(if they survive to adulthood) are considered matured around 13 years and can fight on the front lines, the Golden Breed mature at age 15-16[/b] [b]Society:As my history teacher said, They kill the men, r@pe the women, and throw(or eat) the children off the walls. Thats how society treats outsiders. Inside, a single rule is followed, the strong crush the weak and the surviving weak die in battle against the weak.[/b] [b]History:[/b] In the Previous world, the Kraeans were actually two different races. The Lizard-like race called the Krakons that were masters of warfare and born to fight and the Swan-like Horeans that have mastered diplomacy, healing magic, and many other great achievments. They had a rough history of decades of war than unification for centuries. There could be a century full of so many advancements that they could have conquered their world, only for it to be destroyed by a single war between these two races. It is said that once a comet flew across the moon as it was the shade of blood, a single unknown being wished for an end to this fighting and the eternal unification of the two races. At the very moment the earth shook and the end began, the comet smashes into a Horean city being sieged by Krakons, killing the besieged and the besiegers. Both races ran, to where they had no idea. The Horeans gathered at the heart of their crumbling homeland and managed to open one of the many portals being opened across the remaining world. At that very moment the Krakons appeared, for once they were fueled by fear as they charged the Horeans to get to the portal. Massive amounts of blood was spilled as the two races fought to get to the portal. The portal was being held open by two stones that gave the Horeans their magic, the blood of the dead was slowly engulfed by these two stones as such the portal started to turn a shade of red, but not one being noticed this, the only thing they noticed was the closing of the portal. They all charged the portal, but they still didn't stop the bloodshed, even as they came closer to the portal, blood was spilled. The krakons were killing because of fear, a first in their long history and the horeans were using their magic to cause death, another first. Many had already jumped through the portal but the few left behind ran faster as the ground started to crumble, as the last few reached the portal, turning around. They saw the horror that they were escaping, their own kind were falling to their deaths horribly disfigured as they burned in the lavapits below. Many died in the portal crossing, the prayer of that one unknown being was answered and the Krakons and Horeans would be forever united. This moment is called the Merge, as many crossed the portal, the magic stones that kept its open were poisoned and due to this, the Horeans and Krakons were merged together into a new being,but to make matters worse, some of the end had escaped through the portal too and balls of fire and unknown creatures attacked the Kraeans, they were disfigured even worse. As they escaped from the portal, the remainings Kraeans were all merged landed in a unknown land, strange beings met them, the beings would ran and scream in terror and only come back armed with weapons to farther slaughter the remaining Kraeans. The Kraeans hide and ran until they were united under the destroyer and learned to us their terror and fight back. [b]Religion:There is no god but there is one thing that all Kraeans believe in, the end will always be coming and the only way to prepare for it is to conquer the world and prepare it for the end. The end described as satan.[/b] [b]Significant Racial Traits: Hates swimming Mindless charging Numbless when attacking Massive numbers Fearless[/b] [b]Preferred Fighting Methods The common method is a mix of using a horde and a professial army. Kraeans from the slaughter batches are placed in a massive horde of soldiers called the Front Line but also called the Slaughter Horde or the Blood Line. The gruesome of the slaughter bunch that have mastered the magic of Fear are placed on the very front of this horde, this usually causes the enemy army to be paralyzied until its too late and the horde is already too close. This often disables long range attack methods and causes massive casualities for both armies. Sometimes if the enemy army is to massive, rage is activated to farther crush the enemy. Behind the Front Line is the Destroyer Force, the Golden Breed Kraeans end up in this group of soldiers and are killing machines that sweep up the remaining soldiers or crush the enemy army if the Front Line was wiped out. The Front Line has no military organization, they only charge while the Destroyer Force carefully plans its attacks[/b] [b]Seafaring Capabilities: In the previous world, both races were masters of the sea but in this new world, most Kraeans generally hate the water even the destroyer is said to not have been on a boat.[/b] [b]Other Information:Nothing [/b]
