"Ooh.."
She said with surprise in her tone. She could be felt blinking at the seraphim despite her face being covered. However from below one could see her small lips and acute jawline. "Perhaps you were right to sneak here.. There are not many that come up here beyond prayer." She lifted her clasped hands to her chest as she spoke the words. Prayer.. She thought.

"Little seraphim.." A small pause as the wind passed with a whistle. "You have a strange way of speaking. Though I do find it quite enjoyable... My name is Luna. I tend to the fires.. and other aesthetics of this place." She looked to the statue of Vrondi again, looking into his face and empty stone eyes. "Do you know the way of prayer?" She spoke without turning her head. This one seems quite young... She thought.

"The way we pray to the lord of light, as commanded by his very own mouth. Whatever feeling light gives you must be harnessed and meditated on. Whether joy, clarity, or fear.. whichever way you embrace the light there is no wrong way." Her hands began to glow softly as she held them to her chest. Soon the light escaped from her hands as small particles that lifted like dust into the air.

"Then ones soul will shine with its own pure light... That is all he asks is for us to find our own light... Do you wish to learn?" As she said this her head turn to look down on her visitor. Her crimson right eye becoming visible beneath the shade of her hood.

@Eisenhorn

Glad he enjoyed the drink the young seraphim woman smiled with satisfaction. Perhaps the sobbing of the drunken soldier went on too long for her and she needed to please a customer or two. She began cleaning some of the cups off as she noticed the dragonkin begin to speak to the man. In a tone that was reconciling and apathetic. Calling her attention to make a few drinks for her coworkers who were serving the other customers around the bar floor.

"It's not a fucking uptick..." He spoke from emotion. Barely glancing at or registering Ansgar's appearance. "I've never seen so much death.. All of my companions are dead, terribly cursed, or injured beyond repair... Soon I will be too.." He took his last gulp and slammed the glass cup on the table. Cracking the cup between his armored fingers as he did so. This loud snap whirled the bartender around. "Take it from my tab.. I'll be dead by tomorrow.." He dropped a sack of gold and silver coins on the table before the bartender could protest. The amount brightening up her face as she swept it away and placed it on her thin rope belt around her slender waist. "Thaaank you sir!" Either the money or the loud patrons defeaning her sense of apathy.

"We expect another attack tonight.. another fucking slaughter no doubt.." He finally took the moment to look at the one he spoke to. This time more directly. His lack of a full drink in hand gave him a moment to speak without too much distraction. "Then there was the one we saw..." He spoke ominously now. Slower and with a gentle and calm expression taking over his face rather than a beaten and scared one. Perhaps he resigned to.. "Death.. Their proclaimed god who stood above them all. Merely watching us defend ourselves from his fanatic followers.." He shifted in his seat as if he sat there too long.

"I know necromancers.. I know those who play with death like gods. But this one.. He seemed to be the source of it all.. I don't know what it was. But he seemed beyond any of that.." He almost smiled now. His teary eyes dried as he was able to speak with someone with clarity. "My name is Gaien (Guy-en)... I apologize for my ramblings.." He lifted two fingers to rub his weary eyes. Seeming to recover slowly from his haze of drunken depression to being simply drunk.

The breeze from the outside air was stifled within the leaves that surrounded the open area. At least 25 meters across, well lit with beams of sunlight that shined through the vegetation, and empty. The roof of the building was surprisingly spacious yet empty given its size. Save for the small seraphim observing the calm face of the king of this land.. And a cloaked figure, unmoving as it knelt to a statue. This figure was thin underneath the clean cloak. Its wrists and hands were visible as they were raised to the flame of a statue.

The fire began to grow brighter as the praying hands of the person edged closer. "May the light guide our path.." The hood was not able to hide the gentle feminine voice of the woman. Her fair pale skin almost glowed when the sun hit it. She turned to the light to make her way toward the next statue. This one was next to Vrondi's and in front of the Seraphim.

She walked with a calm almost ghostly grace. With her hands gently clasped together she bowed when coming before the little angel. She looked up at the statue, a few strands of her long white hairs falling out of the hood and flowing in the breeze as she did so."He is truly a sight.. Even in stone his presence is felt by all who know his light..." She turned her head to the angelic statue next to king Vrondi's and clasped her hands together. The fire soon began to grow within the angels hands, which it held in both palms facing upward like a juggling act. After doing this she clasped her hands together and turned her head slightly toward the Seraphim. "Are you here to pray to the lord of light in this world?"

@Eisenhorn
"Here you go!"
A elegant and fair seraphim woman slid a brew across the table a foot across to dragonkin. His presence being one of the more rugged and intimidating of the three who sat at the bar. One was a simple Sol man, what appeared to be a trader with his fine clothes and gentle hands. The other was a simple drunk. His hair was a mess and his sad green eyes looked into the puddle of melted ice on the bar table. He seemed like a Sol as well, however with brown hair he seemed diluted.

The bar tender was a fair seraphim woman though, with long hair like fire and golden eyes. Her clothes were a white tunic which didn't cover herself from her lack of undergarments by a whole lot. The drink that rocked itself back and forth when arriving to Ansgar grew small suds on the top of it. With no ice and a orange hue at the bottom and red at the top. "Hope you like it! It's called Dragon's blood!" She exclaimed with a engaged stare and smile. Whether she found his appearance interesting or awaited a reaction to the mix was up to ponder. As the mixture was a strong mix of dark liquor and wine. Also a single drop of dragon blood.

"It's coming.. It's coming for us all but nobody knows it yet.." Muttered the drunkard. His slurred words growing more clear with each utterance. "I've seen it... Oh heavens I've seen the damn...!" He choked and forced down a drink in the process. A tear streaming down his cheek. It was apparent now this rambling drunk who reeked of booze was a soldier. His gauntlets and boots, branded with the seal of Vrondi, was proof of this. He let out a deep beaten sigh as the drink went down. "A darkness is coming..." He spoke looking into his drink. The trader scoffed, finished his drink and went for the door. The rest of the patrons did not over hear the strange words over their own merry times. The seraphim bartender only looked worried.

"I think you've had enough sir.."

Pet

A rare beast never seen beyond the gentle hands of the Queen. Its very scales are like shimmering diamonds


Name- Dimante
Height- Stands at 10 feet. Length is at 20 feet without tail. Which adds another 10 feet.
Weight- Over 6k
Age- 35
Sex- Female
Personality- A ferocious beast tamed by only the Queen. It acts as her protector and due to such it is very antisocial and lives to only eat, sleep and be by its masters side at all times.

Abilities/Powers- Its scales are as hard and smooth as diamonds. Its radiant scales allow it to withstand much damage. It has teeth that match its scales and rips through even armored Oro flesh like butter. It also has great flight speed, able to break sound barriers.

Adv. App.:
Exp: Until the age of 20 she had no experience with weaponry. All of her great early victories in combat did not involve a weapon of her own. She used dragons to fight and she did so very well. Mastering strategy games was her passion since childhood. This makes her a formidable tactician as she has played a form of chess with many great minds across royalties. Since she was 20 she trained with a spear and light shield. Her master was her father. A royal guard for Gaia who knew just how much strength was commanded of their supreme leader. She trained hard and well. Becoming able to defend herself in sparring matches against her father. When she completed the trials and became Queen she began training from age 22 onward. Her new master was the previous King's Royal guard trainer. Her skills with spear and shield became formidable even to masters. Since she became Queen at 22 she was also trained in using her soul. She always enjoyed the beauty of stones, but not she could mold them. Learning to harden and soften earth matter. She also learned to control wind, but to a lesser extent but still very powerful. Her master was a Dragon that lived on the peak of the mountain. Through out her time as queen she trained with spears. The spear of choice she used was the one bestowed upon the supreme ruler. She learned how to tap into its manipulating properties and has been mastering it ever since.

Spells: She can summon her spear from a open portal whenever she chooses. She can open portals around the spear to allow it to pierce whatever is within a mile radius of her and within her sight. Effectively striking from any angle she wishes even from a distance.

She can open a portal to where ever she wishes that she has previously visited with her spear but it suspends the spear from her grasp for as long as it remains open.
She can summon wind or earth from wherever she wishes by tapping into her soul. The larger the amount the more soul she can produce. She can even summon weapons made from different metals or earth.

Abilities/Powers: Her diamond like scales are as hard as steel. Her other not so noticeable scales are softer and is seamless with her delicate flesh. But she can harden her entire body to the point her entire form is more resistant to damage than steel and instead becomes much like diamonds. Her very form shimmers when she activates this to its full capacity.

Hindrances: Despite her thin frame she weighs a decent amount due to her density making her stamina only average. Her love of the flawless makes her so unwilling to be hurt or dirtied she will have a loss of mind if ever nicked or smudged.
Unknown Weaknesses: She has a relaxed and game like attitude to battle. Much too often she does not grasp the seriousness of battle even if to the death.
Weapons: Heaven's Peace - A 3 foot long handle and a 5 foot blade. It is virtually unbreakable. It was made from the bones and claws of the Dragon lord, which claimed to be a god. It can bestow the wielder the ability to open portals to past places. Also it allows the wielder to open small portals for its blade to enter through. It also has seals on it to make it vanish if touched by anyone not the leader of Gaia. For this it is said the weapon harbors the will of Gaia, alluding to it having a mind of its own.

Appearance

orig01.deviantart.net/6c91/f/2015/240/..

History:
She was born in a decent family. The closest to royalty was her father whom merely worked as a guard for some of the royals. He was a stern man who made sure to keep his several children in check. He trained his sons to be strong warriors like him and his daughters to be servants. But it all changed when his daughter Allo began to grow. She had a natural beauty unlike even her sisters. This coupled with her love and charm of feral Dragons. He soon began to change his outlook on the male female dynamic as she grew older. She commanded her first feral at such a young age that it was like her very essence directed the beasts. Her accomplishments soon outweighed her very own brothers and without a single day of training from her father. This made him very proud of her. But she would only continue to astound her family.

She spent her time beyond studying training dragons for people to ride. Through her travels to tame more exotic dragons however she found her passion for using dragons to protect people. As a group of slavers using ferals as weapons to attack a village below the mountains she used her charm to turn the ferals and save the village time for help to arrive. She continued her studies at home with private teachers and soon found herself the recipient of special treatment from many. It was not until her 20th birthday did she learn why. She was to join the trials to become queen.

The trials were among the most beautiful of Oro women who had rare features. One looked like ruby, one sapphire, and so on. She was the diamond. The trial for King was among the strongest and wise Oro men who too had rare features. The first trial for the Queen was much like the trial for King, with combat, and in this she was besting the others. The final trial was for the victors to approach the legendary dragon of diamond scales. Its kind is only alive within the halls of Gaia's kingdom and as such is the final judge of their leader. Even more so it was the pet of the previous King and Queen. It sniffed her well and soon found its ferocious presence calmed. It turned to the would be King and after a few strong wiffs it bellowed a strong sneeze. It then opened it's jaws and nipped off the head of the ambitious man. He did not pass but she did. After this no man was willing to attempt the trial for King and most decided after some time a Queen ruling alone was not bad.

Her time as Queen was spent honing herself. She was instructed by the wise ones of the mountains to seek the tip and meet the teacher who could move mountains. She found the journey easier with the help of her companion, the dragon that placed her in her position. But it was beyond the clouds. Soon she found another mountain top to climb. However, as it moved she was startled to see that the massive shadow above the mountains tip was a massive dragon clinging to the mountain. To make things worse it did not speak any language. It simply shook everything and whipped around winds like pure chaos. Yet she did not return down the mountain and neglect her duty. She instead challenged its power with hers and began to, through trial and error, learn how to communicate with this Godly beast.

After many years of going and leaving the mountain tops she was honed in her power. Yet she mentions how weak she is to her master no matter how hard she tries. Her old dragon companion died and its body was turned to armor for her. But she does not wear it unless it is necessary. She raised its offspring to be her new companion and she loves how loyal it is to her. Her years growing has taught her many lessons in ruling and yet she does not take it at all too seriously. She mostly sees herself as an idol to be worshiped and does her duty to be so and a large part of it is helping her people become as flawless as her. Since she has become Queen her troops are more diverse and tactical yet she tries to keep Gaia a secluded place from too many travelers. Preserving its mystery and beauty.

She has had many men wanting to become her King. Though her status makes most royalties beneath her. Her wealth is rarely matched by any other. So her interest in Magnix is from a sense of equality. His legendary status makes him a match in her mind. However she does not want to risk her people or her power for a relationship.

Trivia: She has a newborn child kept in secret.

Queen Tydra Nept of Tearianaris

Theme : youtube.com/watch?v=9YmTXThBrLs
Quote: "Life on land is incredibly dull."
Name: Nydra Nept
Age: 40
Species: Descendant
Blood%: 100% Lassa
Gender: Female
Sex Preference: Bisexual
Height: 5'8
Weight: 135
Physical appearance:

Armored

unarmored

Her body is toned and her legs and arms are even more so. Giving her a sharp almost male like aura of strength and speed.

Apparel: Her typical clothing consists of very little beyond the most private covering. This and her wet suite for entering her Advanced App is all she typically wears. At times she is forced into ornamental attire to address the public and royalties. But she is not interested in clothing beyond her armor. Which is made from sea serpents capable of withstanding the pressures of the deep crevices below their ocean. Sharp and elegant it is highly resistant to damaging spells. The encrypted markings that shimmer in the light on the armor is the source of the this power and relies on the wearer's soul to power this defense mechanism.

God's presence -
orig09.deviantart.net/3f2b/f/2012/292/..
A medallion that sits around her neck at all times. It grants the holder the power to control gravity around them and where they choose to point their influence. It was created from one of the eyes of the Dragon lord who called himself a God.

Vehicle: orig08.deviantart.net/aa55/f/2015/233/..
A two seated vehicle for basic transport on land and in water. It hovers over the earth and is capable of low altitude flight. It is capable of moving up to 60 mph. It can transport a Advanced App.

Personality: She is head strong long any typical leader. However she does not as much as lead as much as use her status to her advantage. She is obsessed with the oceans and loves the calm silent waves. She is energetic and loves to challenge her close companions, guards and such, to games or feats. She has a air of tomboyishness, but her elegance remains a strong presence. Her rowdy nature is hidden from the majority of her people. Making her able to switch from her usual adventurous self to a more sharp and cold Queen. This side of her negates her outgoing charm and replaces it with a cunning determined demeanor. Often seen in battle and when she is in front of royalties or annoyed. She has a love for all technology and dislikes the world on land due to their lack of achievements in this field beyond transport and weapons. As such she loves music made from tech.

Faction: Slight affiliation with the Magoi
Pet:

Adv. App.:

Ocean Wake

Height- 5 meters
Metal base- New Magnesium Alloy
Type - Light
Power source- The source comes from a sphere within the chest. It is water infused with Tydra's soul essence. It stores the essence after she infuses it within the water and heats the water to power it with steam heat and soul. Engine inside the shoulders produces electricity as support power.
Equipment -
1. orig09.deviantart.net/8a2f/f/2013/026/..
Top - Rage - A auto rifle that fires rapid rounds powered by electricity and steam.
Bottom - Calm - A rifle that fires single shot rounds with rail gun like force. It has multiple attachments for long ranged sniping for up to 30 miles or closer ranged battle which requires mobile use. It is powered the same as Rage except with the addition of soul essence.
2. orig05.deviantart.net/ee8b/f/2006/360/..
The Heretic - The weapon is created from the bones of a legendary sea dragon that can resist the pressures of high gravity. It is a 3 metered sized weapon.
3. Water boosters - Using Tydra's water conjuring and its use of water as fuel it can release its stored water as a powerful booster. Capable of propelling it at mach speeds both underwater and in air.

Exp: Tydra's early years were spent studying various schooling subjects. She did well in her classes but excelled in mathematics. She had a love for technology and was delighted by the idea of one day being a technician or engineer. She learned how to create motors from disassembled materials at the age of 10. She began working with technicians at energy plants at the age of 15. She learned how to create and operate Advanced Apps at the age of 17 and learned from brilliant mechanics within the royal armies network.
When she was 18 the trials began and after she became Queen at age 18 she began training in the ancient ways and learned to manipulate water as well as spells. She also trained with the use of her medallion given only to the Queen of Tearianaris. But she neglected her studies of mastering her soul and instead focused on mastering her control over Advanced Apps. She learned from the best marksmen on how to shoot both in her mechanized suite and out. She also learned the use of sword, spear and shield from royal guards. Her weapon of choice being something similar to a harpoon. For obvious uses on her voyages. After many years of combining all of her training she was able to do casting, manipulations and control her medallions special gifts while in her very own machine. She underwent many death defying adventures with her honed abilities. Thanking her many masters for making a simple tech head to a power house Queen.

Spells: Lightning - She can summon a luminescent rune from where she wishes within a yard radius around her and conjure lightning from these runes.
Ice - She can summon a rune to conjure and emit cold and ice from. Like opening a portal to a icy world. She can launch pure ice as projectiles.
Gravity - She has learned to control gravity around her and others she touches using her medallion's gift. She can increase or decrease her weight and whatever she wears or is around her body. She can target an area within her sight range and manipulate the gravity around it for very short increments of time.
Siren's call - She can sing a song that casts a hypnosis spell on those who hear it. It makes the listener a devoted servant much like a puppet.
Water summon - Her final rune spell conjures varying amounts of water from it.

Abilities/Powers:
She can manipulate water and heals quite fast from being in it. She can swim at incredible speeds and has strength and speed in combat that bests even her strongest guards. Her stamina is almost limitless in water and quite high on land. She knows how to manipulate water in ways not many of her kind could imagine, such as slicing metal with water. She can manipulate almost any liquid substance one being blood. Her blood can be shifted to mimic the rapid adrenaline Tyro's feel. She can even manipulate liquid that is within something, such as the blood in ones body, if she is touching it. But with water she can control that freely up to a mile distance. She can breathe both air and water.

Hindrances: She is more fragile than other high caliber Lassa and as such needs to wear something to protect her. If ever one got underneath her protection she will be delicate. Her medallion is precious to her and if ever removed without her knowledge she will go into a fit of tears and depression, losing her warrior's spirit.
Unknown Weaknesses: She focuses on powerful attacks when not in her more cunning mode. Using up most of her resources quickly. She thinks she is the best at everything and is quite cocky.

Weapons: Lancer - A blue lance made from steel and sea stone. Its blade is edged with sapphire. It's design is meant to penetrate flesh and hook in with its jagged sides.
Steam rifle - orig12.deviantart.net/f3f2/f/2015/040/..
A gun fueled with heated water. It requires the power of the user's soul to heat the tank of water within. It fires whatever projectile she places in it. Typically it is steel or sea stone tipped.

History: She and her sister were twins at birth yet both were entirely different in character. Tydra was the the athletic and science intrigued her. While her sister Thala was a book reader, a singer and song writer and had an affinity to charming sea dragons with her songs. They both loved each other and were always together when their interests didn't separate them. Their mother and father were royal workers in the science fields. So naturally Tydra being the one closer to their parents made Thala a bit of a black sheep within the Nept home. Despite this they were all very close. As they grew older the word of the trials for Queen was coming. The Queen before had died from a assassination in which no culprit has been found as of yet (current game time). As word got out about Thala's singing voice she was tested in front of Royalties and confirmed her gift. She was subject as a unique pure Lassa and as such would be on the line to be next Queen, as the earlier one had no heirs. Tydra did not want her sister to go alone so she managed to convince her parents to help convince the Royalties to let her try out to protect her sister. Her plan worked and she was placed on trial for Queen.

The trials were tests of knowledge and the siren's call, as well as skill in surviving danger. It was held entirely beneath the waters. They were faced before different tiers of sea dragons and sang their songs. If they failed the Dragon would either swim away or try to devour the siren. They had to know which Dragon liked what kind of song and figuring that out was Tydra's job. Her and her sister sang in unison when they could but Thala took control of the majority of the singing. When things got dangerous Tydra helped her sister stay alive even to the degree of spearing a feral which was not part of the trial, in the eye and then making an escape. Tydra was stronger than her sister physically and mentally.

However when it came to the final test they found themselves to be the only two remaining who did not fail. Her and her sister had to go to some surface stones assembled in massive columns in the middle of the sea. Rising from behind the columns was a terrible sea dragon, massive in scale and summoned its own storm and waves with it. It looked disturbed from some kind of slumber and did not entirely notice the girls. Its presence however was frightening to the say the least. The tides would sweep them off the stones and they would have to climb back up. But her and her sister began to sing in unison and grasped the beasts attention. However it roared with a thunderous echo in reply and only caused a larger wave to crash into them. After climbing back up once more Tydra stopped singing and let her sister do it alone. She sang a song of peace and calm to put the beast back to sleep. Her song echoed like the Sirens of legend and began to calm the waves and winds around her. She began to feel into the Dragon's essence and read its very mind. It eyed her sister Tydra and launched at her. Tydra was falling asleep herself and did not notice what was happening. All she remembers is being knocked into the water and swimming back to the stones to find a puddle of blood on the stone she was on, calm waters, the beast and her sister was gone.

Tydra was pronounced Queen reluctantly by her own guilt and the royals that knew she did not have the true Siren's call Thala did. She went ahead with being Queen anyway to honor her sister by doing what her sister would have done if she did not save her. Though she is not the greatest Queen she continually tries to help her people become richer in materials and advancements. She also searches the deep constantly for the Dragon that killed her sister.

Trivia: She loves EDM.

The setting.

Map of the Edafos

Protogonos & Its Lore

It is believed by many that the planet itself is an egg.

The majority of the planet (Protogonos) is covered in massive mountains. These mountains were forged through centuries of sky fire hailing its surface. To the imagination, nothing can survive such a brutal planet. However within a large portion of water and protected by massive stalagmites, sat a beautiful Eden. However it was home to savage monsters and primarily Dragons. But there were beings close to human, but one look at you could tell they weren't. They either resemble demons, or angels, and most resemble demons.

Then there are some who are bipedal reptilians ranging from small and cute, to huge and scary. Though they might not entirely agree, and have prejudices against each other, they all claim to be known as "Descendants". Those who resemble demons consider themselves superior in most ways to others. All except the scaled ones are fair and elegant. When they die some turn into what they call "Ascended" which is the equivalent of returning in a higher state of being. Sometimes made of fire, or ice, blood or light. Those with mastery of their soul can ascend to become conscious again in almost any form.

Their history is deep and vague and not entirely known to even themselves. But most believe their souls are undying, either retaining form as a ever living being, or returning to the planet itself to nourish it. Some even talk of becoming everlasting weapons, or objects. But the most important part is that they can harness their soul's essence to do various manipulations and manifestations. Their belief may vary on who God is, some believe a being came to their world who was so powerful he created a wife from a dragon's heart and they are their children.

The more reptilian (and dragon blooded) ones believe he didn't create a wife, he simply altered himself into a dragon to be with a dragon whom he loved. The story alters from tribe to nation. Many worshiping their idea of a God. The Kingdoms choosing to treat their Kings and Queens as merciful gods. Many being punished for not doing so. Those outside the kingdom's and provinces often use ancient ruins of old lords and masters. Most of the ghostly ruins are too queerly vast and deep to fully traverse.

Although those of angelic blood and inherent of strong angelic traits are the most saught after targets of kidnapping and selling, the nomads who farm outside a kingdom's land are the primary victims. The demonic people are larger in number and the angelic traits are rare. Though Dragon looking people who are not entirely dragons are a minority too.

The safest places are areas that have been mapped in most maps on the land. Everything else is home to anyone living freely in the wilds but mostly bandit gangs and nomadic villages. The real danger are the dragons, marked with skulls on maps. Though Dragons are wise and more intelligent than ever before some, bitter from defeat, chose to breed only to create rebellious offspring. Those that live and eat freely as beasts. Many do not know if they are indeed mindless and stupid or entirely absorbed by the hunger for revenge on the Seraphim's descendants and all who share their blood.

The powers that formed to rule the lands are numerous. Yet they form alliances that combine some of their power into one form. The Kingdoms and Factions are the seats of these world shaking forces. Though the measure of each could be speculated to differ, each and every descendant knows to respect or fear the leaders of any kingdom or faction.

This divides the power but primarily it is given to the King and Queens of each Kingdom. They are the true gods of this world now and are not only worshiped willingly by their subjects but hold power that are to most insurmountable. The Factions work with kingdoms to remain from under the Kingdoms heels many would say. But the wise will tell you that it is just to keep the peace. As no faction desires to rule over people. Where does a faction's alliance lay? Look to their HQs and the closest kingdom to them are their promoters. The Merchant Guild is the only one that is entirely neutral with very little prospects beyond stable economy.

The Magoi and the Kingdom of Tearianaris formed an alliance. The combination of the spells the Magoi knew and the technology found, decoded and reconstructed by the Lassa formed what most of the world consider abominations of incredible power. Though the Lassa liked the name "Advanced Apparatus" a lot better. The "thing" was a suite of metal with a intelligence system. The lack of technology was made up for with reanimation spells. Meaning they used the flesh of dead dragons and kept the fresh blood of it going through to keep it pulsing with life. Then they linked the minds of the person inside the suite with the body.

This was considered a very dangerous method. Many died testing these in various ways. It was not until the push in technology and funding found under the oceans by the Queen of Tearianaris Tydra Nept did they eventually get it right. Resulting in the few but powerful Advanced Apps created for the Queen and some of her chosen sentinels.

The ways of which to create the advanced apps and other forms of technology were of interest to the engineers of the Kingdom of Fotia who too were wise in using industry to bolster their supplies. Using mostly their own designs and some of the knowledge gained to create war machines of their own. Not as capable as the Tearian's but more numerous are their machines in combat, cultivation, and industry.

The plot can be fluid and we can decide on different things. Primarily interactions between different philosophies of lords will be the main focus.

@dragonmancer
Cool.
