Before I do more on this sheet, can I get your feelings on the basic idea [@Mihndar]? [hider=The Old Forest] [center][h2][u]The Old Forest[/u][/h2][/center] [u]Type of Government:[/u] The Old Forest has never had an official government, rather whenever a decision was to be made which affected all the forests denizens the so called Greater Beings, the most ancient and impressive examples of their respective spaces, would gather. This, often, resulted in petty argument and endless compromise. While the seemingly almighty power of the forest in ages past meant this slow and contentious decision making process was tolerable given how uncommonly a united front was needed, the pressures of the modern day have revealed its weakness. [u]Head(s) of Government:[/u] It could be said all the Greater Beings are heads of Government in the forest, certainly none would admit to being anything less, but in reality only a few among them hold real power. These notable entities include Shatarae of the Dryads, Gerume of the Great Weavers, Keera of the Harpies, Tokar of the Grand Ursine and on the rare occasion they deign to exert their influence, Ooash of the Shadows. [u]Economy:[/u] Until recently the Old Forest had little in the way of industry, and there is little doubt not a one of its denizens would willingly engage in the economics of the so called 'ephemeral ones'. Of course, the Forests denizens don't have the choice to refuse any longer. After the first sundering of the forest the Great Beings were forced to make concessions, and today they, begrudgingly, provide the world with materials of the forest once considered mythical. Magical heartwood from the old trees, the silk of the weavers, the deep ice of the old mountain. The forest is forced to give away much of its wealth, and as for what it receives in return? Well, the Great beings cannot be said to have been ignorant of the circumstances of their subjugation. Deep within the forest the hiss of steam rises and furnaces burn hot, ostensibly to process the resources of the forest within the forest. Of course, industry has many uses. [u]Primary Species:[/u] Countless species live within the forest, but few if any are those that might be seen elsewhere. The thinking beings of the forest are in order of their numbers, the Great Weavers, the Harpies, the Grand Ursine, the Dryads, and finally the enigmatic Shadows. [u]Population:[/u] Ten to fifteen million.
