[quote=@Bright_Ops] [hider=Tushiena] [b]Faction Name:[/b] Tushiena [b]Alias:[/b] The County of Tushiena [b]Government Type:[/b] Dictatorship [b]Faction Specie(s):[/b] Tushiena has become something of a melting pot for various races, but the two primary races that make up the bulk of it's land based population are humans and goblins. It's underwater extensions are primarily populated by the 'Deep Ones', fish men who live in the sea and who survive off of a largely meat based diet... alongside hybrids of land based races that have grown their gills. [b]Territory Details:[/b] The Bay of Teeth is a surprisingly fertile land. Its soil is able to support quite a wide range of different types of edible plant life, the ocean around it filled with plentiful fish life and the rivers... are so clogged up with sludge while traveling through the single giant city of Tushiena that if you're quick enough you could run across its surface without the soils of your shoes melting at certain times of the year. The city itself is huge, covering most of the islands in the bay and connecting the various districts that this makes via grand stone bridges. And that is just the parts of the nation above sea level. In the murky waters around the Bay of Teeth live tribes of 'Deep Ones', fish men that have lived in the oceans for aeons; It is unclear if they were another race created by the Dark Lord in ages passed or if they spawned naturally from some dark corner of the sea, but regardless of origin pacts and alliances of old have long brought the Deep One's of the Bay of Teeth into Tushiena's fold. [b]Faction Religion/Ideology:[/b] Tushiena is not a religious nation; It does have a district dedicated to the building of temples, shrines and churches for those who are, but they are generally far to busy scrabbling with each other over ideology and possible converts to actually try and get involved in the political landscape of the city. There is even a small church dedicated to God-Emperor Justinian, through it is a very minor cult compared to several more native ones. Tushiena itself is a nation of magic and technology; While it's ruler is a powerful lich, Count Vasha has always felt that for a nation to grow powerful it needed to be willing to plumb the depths of the occult and the arcane while also researching and experimenting with the mundane. Tushiena has a proud naval tradition, it's ships some of the greatest in the world and its merchant fleet prepared to sail in the name of profit far and wide. This is as much pragmatism as it is national pride; The only means for any of those who wish to plunder Tushiena directly requires the invader to travel by ocean... and it can't do any harm if said invading fleet is reduced to a burning wreck that is sinking to the bottom of the sea with all hands lost. Slavery is illegal in Tushiena; Those taken alive during pirate raids are either auctioned back to their people of origin, channeled towards the Cult distract to be offered up as sacrifices to anyone who needed them or just flat out offered to the Deep Ones to devour. [b]Faction Description:[/b] The former bread basket of Nagath and the Dark Lord Daigon's empire, once the Dark Lord had died and his nation fell apart Tushiena became an independent city nation that has largely been untouched by war over the centuries due to the combination of its powerful and feared navy, the fictionalized nature of Nagath post Dark Lord keeping local threats too focused on closer enemies and the Justinian Imperium simply being too far away to really make the effort. Originally the Bay of Teeth was colonized by humans and goblins under the leadership of the newly appointed Count Vasha by Dark Lord Daigon himself sometime during his reign in order to secure a great source of food in order to feed the Dark Lords armies, but after it became an independent nation it became something of a merchant dictatorship under Count Vasha... that people from various races and walks of live wanted to live in. Tushiena's indifference to matters of religious faith and its views on slavery (that it just wasn't worth it in the long run) combined with its impressive range of businesses, industries and the opportunities of its trading fleets to earn a living makes it a highly appealing place to live in Nagath. The key to Tushiena's unmatched naval power is a combination of its infamous flamethrowers, fire grenades and the Deep Ones 'Marines'; At some point in the past, the Tushiena alchemists discovered a recipe for what they called 'Daigon's Flame', a substance that sticks to what it hits and burns until it is turned to ash... and long afterwards that is also highly resistant to being put out by water. Tushiena's navy deploys this dangerous weapon via ship mounted 'flamethrowers' that spray the substance where the nozzle is pointed and the fire grenades, which explode on impact after being primed. The Deep One Marines, who are naturally a race that lives underwater, have major advantages when it comes to ship to ship combat since they can literally assault the ships from underneath were most enemies cannot defend. All it normally takes is a bit of drilling, a primed 'Daigon's Flame' grenade and the unfortunate ship is usually sunk before they know what's going on, the crew devoured by the Deep Ones and the cargo secured. [b]Faction History:[/b] [b]Important Characters:[/b] [b]Count Vasha.[/b] The current and so far only ruler of the city of Tushiena is the tyrant Count Vasha, a powerful lich who according to legend was appointed as the Count of the Bay of Teeth by the Dark Lord Daigon himself several centuries ago; The only one who knows what the truth is for sure is Count Vasha himself and few people are on close enough terms with him to ask. While Count Vasha is the tyrant of Tushiena and is thus free to do whatever he wanted, he is rather lawful in nature and tends to focus his powers (both magical and legal) on the well being and growth of the city rather then his own personal gain. He has also invested a great deal of time, money, effort and magic into creating an information network within his lands (and a spy network outside of it) to ensure that he is not only up to date on current events while they are happening, but also aware of what is going to happen ahead of time so that it can be accounted for and dealt with as appropriate. [b]Relations to other Factions:[/b] [/hider] [/quote] This looks pretty good. I should have mentioned though that the Bay of Teeth is not available for factions. Since you want a naval power, I will add some islands to the map closer to Nagath that you can base your faction on. Let me know what you want them to be called and I'll label the map accordingly. If you update your CS with the name of the new territory, you can stick it in the Char Tab. [quote=@Wildman13] [center][hider=The Rarians] Faction Name: The Rarian Empire Alias: The horde [hider=Government Type] [indent][indent]The Rarians work under a feudalistic system of clans led by a dragon warlord. The positions can easily be taken by aspiring warlords that are strong enough to beat the current one. Their clan operate mostly with renown and strength. A proud warrior race the Rarian are open to all manner of technology that will improve their strength. Most clans have only one dragon warlord under them but, when a warlord has been able to capture or assimilated 5 clans under him/her command they are promoted to dragon warchiefs. And if they grow to a certain length they become known as the second most powerful positions a Rarian can have which is the dragon king that will try to lead their clan to become the most powerful out of all the dragon emperor. [/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Faction Species] [indent][indent] Beast Men Species Descriptions: From the tallest which are the minotaurs down to the smallest the rabbit morphs there is no original race for the Rarians only that those who are strong are Rarians and those who aren’t strong are offered to the blade. Orcs Species Descriptions: Characterized with having black and scared skin these, orcs have lived the entirely of their life fighting and in war. With the other Rarians or the others races. Humans Species Descriptions: Indoctrinated humans that live under the Rarians are heavily scarred, armed to the teeth and will be able to take on an orc and a minotaur in a bar fight if he has to. These humans have lived their lives in a state of constant warfare and destruction making them adopt a strict warrior society. Dwarfs Species Descriptions: Indoctrinated dwarfs are harder and thicker headed then regular dwarfs. Though they lack the technology of their cousins these dwarfs are the architects of the renown dragon fortress. Because under attack from all sides these dwarves can’t afford to prefect their craft making them known to tech out new weapons out in the field, which places them in danger as much as the enemy. Note: The Rarian saying: If you are strong, you are an Rarian. Is the most accurate definition of the race. [/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Territory Details] [indent][indent] Dragons mount. Dragon’s mount is where the dragons are said to breed and build their nest, located just on the side of black water these mountains are full of deadly reptilian monstrosities that are believe to be the guardians of the creatures. Treated as a holy site, warlords enter the mountain to prove their strength and worth by hunting for dragons. Dragon Citadel. Now in the hands of the black orcs these citadel is where the legendary warlords of old dictate the move of the empire. A holy seat of power, and an impenetrable fortress on the waste is the pride of any Rarians. Characterized with four massive walls all with spikes, and four large variant of their cannons on each walls. four separated outposts and four entrances only accessible via draw bridges. [/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Faction Religion/Ideology] [indent][indent] Dragon temple: The Rarians believe that the strongest Rarian are their forefathers the dragons which rebelled against the gods in the past. Because of this belief they believe that their objective is to hunt down the gods and their worshippers. Thinking that only the weakest cling on to the gods and the gods are the producers of the weak therefore the gods must be destroyed. They are offended or insulted when the other factions call the dark lord their god. Seeing that the dark lord is one of the most powerful dragon of all time. Responding to this statement often with the Rarian way cleaving an axe straight through the head of the heretic. Faction Description and Faction History: The Rarian was once a small tribe of beastkins aspiring to slay the gods. Once known as the dark lord’s berserkers and the small clan expanded, recruiting the others to their cause and what was once slaves that flock throughout the empire was treated as an equal if they have proven to be strong. Because of the rapid expansion of the clans under the name of Rarian, a feudalistic system was placed to stem the chaotic nature of the race. The strongest at that time along with the help of the dark lord Daigon formulated the system of the strongest leading. Giving birth to the ten legendary dragons warlords under the Daigon the first and most powerful of all the dragon emperors. This new system kept the Rarians from killing their own kind too much and also to ensure that only the best of the Rarians survive to serve his armies. And as time goes by the Rarian the tribes and people that they assimilated under their banner were indoctrinated with the Rarian way. Soon, the name Rarians rose to new length as they continue to adopt all they deem as strong and worthy of being a Rarian. After the death of the dark lord, the Rarian empire collapse for a successor could not take up the mantle of control shattering the once powerful empire into various warring clans whose desire is to unite the clans once more. Though the being strong is what a Rarian is. The definition of being strong varies with each clans and with each clan having different culture and beliefs regarding their beliefs. Different clans would often go to war with one another if they deem the other as inferior or weak. [/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Important Characters:] [indent][indent] Karduke Dragonfist: Known to have slain a dragon with only his fist, the newly renown minotaur is a worthy candidate for the position of the dragon emperor the ruler. A title given only to the strongest and the unquestioned leader of the Rarians who can easily unite the warring clans together to lay siege to the vile god worshipping races of Nagath’s. Easily recognized by his iconic steel skin, this minotaur can easily mow down large group of assailants with one swoop of his giant axe. Dave phalanx: Is a human that has stood against impossible odds with a smile. An elite even to the other rarians, dave laughs at the place of danger. With his shield and axe he commands and fight alongside his clansmen, lesser Rarians fear his savage nature. Jack drakenbeard Jake is a well-known dwarf mercenary that have survive many wars and fought against and for many lords. Known for his extremely short fuse, these dwarf is a proud Rarian. [/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Relations to other Factions] [indent][indent] The Rarians are known to lay siege to the people they deem weak and unworthy of being an Rarian. But, they also desire to convert other races to their cause training their slaves and captives in the ways of the strong. Capable fighters and the scourge of gods these fighters often leave with tickets only a Rarian would wear providing them safe passage and a safe place in Rarian land. For years they have hunted down the god worshippers, burning down villages and towns to plunge the world of these impurities, for even if the dark lord has come to an end their eternal crusade against the gods will never cease. Though there are those they call Rarians that don’t seem to see themselves as such, like the Red Empire and other remnants of the dark lord’s empire, they will fight alongside them regardless and will go to war if they are laid to siege, treating any aggression to those they deem as Rarians as an aggression directed towards them.
