Culture:
Mandisa could be described as a heavily religious nation. Near all of its citizen show great respect, if not worship to the Royal Family and their pantheon. Within Heliopolis, one would find the great wonders and statues of the dynasties before. Golden statues and great sandstone constructs adorn the city. Throughout the Empire’s cities, the Pharaoh’s Royal Guard roam the streets, protecting her cities from crime and other squabbles. In near all times of struggle and need, citizens turn to their dear Pharaoh.

Military:
When one first thinks of Mandisa’s military, thoughts of the Pharaoh’s dear Royal Guard would come to mind. They are the most elite soldiers in all of Mandisa. Donned in bronze armor and full bronze face masks underneath cloth to cover exposed skin, they find themselves fighting both on the front lines of war and inside the palace as the final defense. On the frontlines, the Royal Guards become masters of hit-and-run ambushes in attempt to pick off brigades of enemies before any assaults take place.
As many may infer, the Royal Guard are not plentiful therefore, they do not appear in the heat of war often. This scarcity in troops caused the previous Pharaohs to delve into Mandisan gold hoards to hire the best mercenaries that could be found, leaving the Royal Guard to defend the Pharaoh herself.

Economy:
As previously stated, Mandisan lands are rich with precious metals such as gold and jewels. Unfortunately, Mandisa seems to lack the industrial resources such as iron. Along with their plentiful gold resources, Mandisans are known for their wonderful ports to trade for lovely dyes, silks, and wines. Most of this abundance of wealth has made its way in circulation to the Royal Family, religious figures, and other nobles, though they are not greedy. With such an influx of gold, many nations can find great trading opportunities within Mandisa as gold has less value than it may have in outside nations. This allows foreign resources to be paid for with great amounts of riches.
Not only is one able to find himself riches and luxuries within the markets of Mandisan lands, but also goods that may be unconventional or not allowed amongst surface merchants. Whatever you wish for, they say can be found within the dark corners of Mandisa. These Mandisan Black Markets were set up by past Dynasties, causing them to have connections within the nobles and Royal Family. This has proven to be both a help and hindrance to the Pharaoh.

Reputation:
Amongst the other nations of Seyan, Mandisa has no reputation as a powerhouse, but instead more of an isolated nation in recent years. Past Dynasties have given the nation a terrible reputation to some. With great internal corruption and turmoil, eventually leading to the death of the previous dynasty’s leaders, a vast amount of expectations have been placed upon the shoulders of the new Pharaoh. Because of this, she is compelled by her advisors to make allies with surrounding nations in order to avoid war. Due to most of the conflict being internal, other nations have most likely heard little of Mandisan troubles other than the civil wars and problems. As for rumors spread about the Holy Mandisan Dynasty, many would hear that a new Pharaoh has come into power, years before she was of age to take the throne. Due to her parents death, she had little experience ruling the Dynasty.and she is quite distressed due to the fact that Mandisa had no particular allies.
Mandisa’s black market has quite the reputation in itself, though it is being spread more widely now that the current Pharaoh has limited knowledge of its current status.

History:
The Holy Mandisan Dynasty has history tracing back to be one of the oldest nations in Seyan. Throughout the years, Mandisa has seen many dynasties. Most Mandisans believe that they were the first native inhabitants of Seyan. The nation is lead by a female figurehead called the Pharaoh. Each Pharaoh is given an animal to symbolize them. This has become a staple of Mandisan society as their religion has advanced. Often times, the true names of Pharaohs are forgotten and they are simply remembered by their titles. Little of Mandisa’s history is known to the public, but it is said that within the palace’s great library, books of all recorded Pharaohs and major decisions in history have been kept. Due to dialect changes, some of the earlier books have yet to be decrypted. The access to this library is restricted to the Royal Family and those who’ve been given access.
As for history that is accessible to the public, the past dynasty and the current are quite well known. In the dynasty of the Jackal (The parents of the current Pharaoh), taxing ran wild throughout the nation. Slavery and human trafficking were at an all time high, and though slavery was commonly used within the Mandisan Dynasty, the Pharaoh and her controlling husband took it to an extreme, creating monuments to the gods. Due to the hard labor and dwindling conditions within Mandisa, the eventual assassination of the Jackal Pharaoh and her self empowered husband was inevitable. This leads up to the present Pharaoh’s reign, her blessing ritual still incomplete, causing a great celebration to be planned quite soon.

Misc:
Mandisa, currently with an underaged Pharaoh, heavily relies on its advisors and they are well known throughout the nation.

Is there actually anyone to play the missing lord or are we waiting for someone to take it?

The Strife of Ostaria | Fire Emblem-Inspired RP [18+]

"Don't underestimate me, and I will make this quick."
Username:
Oppositionj

Name:
Ryder Takumi

Age:
15

Gender:
Female

Class:
Thief

Rank: [Lord or Member?]
New Recruit / Member

House: [Which House are they affiliated with?]
House Tosen

Weapons: [Keep true to your class.]
A pair of Stilettos.

Appearance: [You may put an image and add description.]

Ryder, being quite young for a fighter, stands at 5'3". She has medium length, soft, blonde hair. It reaches a bit past her neck. Her eyes, are a blazing orange color. She has a thin and lithe body, allowing quite agile movements. She is easily seen as weak due to her small frame. Her clothing, despite it being a bit restricting, consists of her red cloak along with a short, flowing, white dress. She seems to have chosen her clothing as a perfect mixture of fashion and practicality. This goes hand in hand with her constant upkeep, as beauty is just as important as battle to Ryder.

Personality:
Ryder is quite the stubborn girl, especially in the face of her enemies. She is the type of girl that is not willing to back down in a fight, mostly for her pride's sake. When someone would first meet Ryder, they would assume she is very shy. She tends to be a lone wolf as she has never been to good with others, though, once she figures someone out, she comes off in a very playful manner, never seemingly taking life seriously. As a rogue, this is typical and fits her style of combat. Ryder, despite this heated and combative front is the way she acts to hide her true feelings. Often times she feels weak due to her size and stature, so she acts tough and never seems willing to give up in an argument of battle. Ryder tends to taunt her enemies often when fighting. Even during times she is losing, she still finds time to poke fun at the adversaries she combats. Whenever Ryder loses or fails, she typically attempts to shift the blame as she has a great deal of trouble handling hardship.

Short Biography:
Ryder has had quite the eventful life. Though it has been short, she has been managed to do quite a lot in her sixteen years. As a young child, she was raised by her brother alone. Without knowing the fate of her parents, Ryder lived happily among the urban areas of Zuswil. Her brother, weary of their fate as unguarded youths, taught her to fight at the young age of 9, though she was never to wield a weapon. Years passed, Ryder, was kept alive by her brother with an unknown income source. It wasn't the best, but they lived.

At the age of 12, Ryder's brother had to leave. With his commitment to war, he could not stay and protect her anymore. She had then lived in poverty for the next two years. Thievery came to her easily, though she was never one to take pride in it. Often, her brother would send back money with his letters, though there were often long, worrying spans of time where Ryder had to provide for herself. It wasn't always easily. There were a great deal of times where she was caught. She learned to be fleet of foot or spend days in a cell.

Her times of failure only lasted for a year or two. With her brother seemingly forgetting her, she had become practiced in her stealthy art, always observant and ready to flee. Her impoverished times were halting as she now delved deeper into thievery for creature comforts, though she was not without conscious. Ryder was careful not to get cocky or gluttonous. With her fourteenth birthday approaching, she knew that this lifestyle of hers was to end. She planned to find some sort of work that suited her, though with her tarnished reputation, this would be difficult.

This new goal drove her to her current work. Ryder found a home working as a messenger between the three noble houses in Ashines. Her job worked well as she was a neutral party. As Ryder grew older she was asked by House Carnesale to expand her range of influence so that she could deliver to more than just Ashines. This was quite tough for her at a young age, but she adapted to travel quickly, always taking the safer path. Over the next year leading to the present, Ryder was asked to deliver throughout Ostaria, and even recruited to gather information. She tended to be quite the charmer when she tried, which made the latter task natural. Ryder continued with these tasks all while in search of her lost brother. She seemed to always dodge guards and other obstacles, so her aptitude for stealth was recognized. Eventually, Ryder was scouted out by House Tosen, who offered her a home if she stayed and trained. Finally able to live a 'normal' life was enough for her to accept and become one of House Tosen's newest members. She knows very little about the feud between them and House Aseryo.

I'm still here. Character will be done later today.

Kingdoms of Seyan (REBOOT)

I'm definitely interested in trying a nation RP. This one looks pretty developed so I'd love to join. I assume you want to wait for more interest before we make nation sheets?
