>>6622

The hooded man sitting next to Lord Zephos just gives a small chuckle. "I don't know what you were expecting, Lord, but the trend is that the only time you have someone competent ruling is in times of way. Times of peace allow enough breathing room for incompetence. That a good decision might be made without a war would be nothing short of a miracle, but after we can at least assume a fine ruler shall arise. Trial by fire."

>>2047

Name

"A marvelous speech, Lord Sohneins, and I would like to speak as well," Karasuba would say as she stands, "I must agree with the Lord Sohneins in that Lord Zephos would not be our best choice as Emperor, true his family has served ever faithfully the Emperors of the past but by that reckoning any of us would be fit for Emperor, and I much doubt that anyone wants to see me upon the Throne." With a small smirk at her little joke she continues, "Instead I believe that Leadership of the entire Empire should go to one upon who's shoulders lordship was thrust without much choice or ceremony, and yet has performed admirably despite the crushing duties that Lordship brings. After all is not the one upon whom Leadership was not truly desired but rose to the challenge when necessary and doing rather well at it from all accounts, the true example of Leadership? With these words I would infact like to nominate the Lord Sohneins of House Nation as Emperor Candidate, a man who has, I believe, shown the qualities necessary in a truly great leader.

>>6621

Lord Kellingstag shrugs his shoulders, "I believe it is so far what my loyal retainer Herald would dub 'a clusterfuck', pardon my language. I'm going to chalk up the Shiwan represntatives' inability to do basic sums on the tiresome travels of the road and not-ahem-senility."

>>2051

Given there are many of them and seem QUITE tired, lord Kellingstag I'd agree.

>>2050

Sohneins let out a deep sigh. She was smart for a woman, there had to be some purpose she had nominated him even if it continued to elude him for now. Certainly telling her to bugger off would be considered rude by any standard, how could he phrase this appropriately?

"With all due respect Lady Karasuba, I fear that you have heard so much but only understood so little. Whatever criteria Lord Zephos would not would not live up to I as Lord of Salvynia would not as well. I have my work cut out for me and governing another set of rivaling nobles is out of the question."

>[Charisma 2] Make it sound like a compliment?

>>2054

>Charisma 2

You sent out your "compliment."

>>2050

>Lord Sohneins' Charisma 2

At least, he tried.

>>2050

Noone is taking the attack seriously, go away.

I am pming whitedeath the sentence "The cobras are loose"

>Clovis from last thread

The grin dims as Richard thinks on your words "To tell you the truth, so far I see no reason to allow any of the lords rights over the others. The Emperor was the one that melded the cultures together, if one culture or another takes control, rebellion is guaranteed. While he may not be the best leader, The emperor's son seemed to be the only logical choice."

The hooded man stands up. "Perhaps, Lords, since none of us want the others to have power over us, we should make the rule that none assembled here today can be voted for. This way, personal gains and opportunities for corruption will be multiplied in difficulty, and it will be far easier to choose an Emperor upon their own merits, instead of chances for personal gain." His piece said, he sits back down.

>[Charisma 4?]

>>2065

"Limiting the voting to anyone based on things besides their skills as a leader is a terrible way to decide on who should lead us all"

>>2066

"A man might be born into rule, but this does not necessarily make them the best candidate for rule."

Lord Kellingstag clears his throat, "Friends, neighbors, assembled delegates. May I have the courtesy of your attention. I believe I may yet have a solution that would be equitable to at least most of us."

>Charisma 4 [Assuming Everyone Knows I'm a Kellingstag]

>>2068

Which would be?

>>2067

Bello did decree it had to be one of us or our heirs though.

>>2066

Das wrong, mang.

>>2068

The hooded man looks up to the young Kellingstag. "I am listening," he said.

>>2065

"Are you implying we elect the Lords who didn't want to bother to come here? Do you suggest it would be best for us to simply choose someone who has decided it would not be worth his time to attend his meeting? Make someone Emperor Elect who evidently cares so little for the Empire? With all due respect whoever it is you think you are, ruler of Bandits or one of his henchmen for all I could know, your point is moot. Besides what is your legitimization to be here anyway? I do not know your face, you bear no sigil. We know Lord Hexxus for his condition, Lady Karasuba for her brother.

For all I know you could be one of Keenan's little henchmen trying to get everyone here to renounce their claim to allow him to swoop in and claim the seat as the only viable option. Not that I honestly believe anyone would vote for you. I simply cannot consider you an equal member of this council under these circumstances.".

>>2069

"Why, exactly, do we need to elect a leader in the first place? Have we not shown ourselves perfectly capable of self-governance in the times since Emperor's Bello's demise? Consider, friends, that we are all of disparate peoples, disparate tribes. I do not pretend to know the intricacies of anyone's cultures who sit at this table, and I find it doubtful most anyone can truly understand enough to rule the others. So what if we simply refuse to do so? We each remain as our own sovereign state with the capitol serving as a central hub of diplomatic action."

"With that said, I guess it's no surprise that my vote is to abstain from choosing a new Emperor."

Kellingstag then sat, his piece said.

>>2071

The man waits patiently for Sohneins to finish, his face a mask, though at the end it cracks and shows…amusement?

"To address your first concern, I suggest nothing of the sort. What I suggest is we decide no lordly or royal lineage. Someone of Common Blood, whether they be a merchant king or a sheep farmer, so long as we rulers of the realm determine them to be worthy of the Throne."

"To address your second concern, I am no henchman of Keenan, I am him." He stands up and extends a hand towards the Lord. "King Malik of the Freelands. A pleasure to meet you, Lord Sohneins."

>>2072

Elric shakes his head. That may work, for a time, but with such an approach war is assured. Additioanly once the Imperial army start disbanding from lack of funds and support, that will allow those of us with a more predacious bent free reign to attack how they please.

>>2073

"My you're a showy one aren't you? Was the cloak and dagger really necessary?"

>>2074

There's only a smile and a shrug in reply, and the words, "I like to think I maintain a healthy paranoia."

>>2075

"Then isn't revealing yourself patently unwise? It's not like the guards disarmed any of us."

>>2073

Sohneins smiled, then he started to chuckle, trying to keep posture he slowly shook his head as if he had tried too strong of a drink. For a moment he merely stared past the man exhaling slowly. After finally having gained his posture he looked at the man smugly.

"Did you not comprehend a thing I said? So you stand up you extend your hand and you say a name. And then what? All the points I raised about your questionable claims evaoprate?", Sohneins smiled and shook his head, "Nothing has changed. Every man and woman in the Dalterran Freelands knows his name. You can claim to be whomever you wish, but if you have no proof to present you are nothing more than an envoy to me and you have not even proven as much.

To elect a common man you seem to follow the footsteps of Lord Ernst which is a questionable choice in my opinion, another topic on which I seem to be unable to agree with you, however I suppose as nobody else seems to share my concerns you are entitled to your own opinion and requests.".

>>2076

"Surely, Lord, you aren't suggesting one of us at this meeting would attempt to eliminate the competition before the vote, just so it might sway in their favor. Or at least that anyone could get away with it. It'd be in everyone's interests that everyone here survives until they reach their own borders, if only to keep the peace."

>>2077

"I suppose I can't blame you for not recognizing me," he said. "At the Emperor's death, I said and did little. That said, I can give you no proof I am who I say beyond my name. My claim to the Freelands is still quite fresh." He sits back down and considers the second one, but says nothing more on it, deciding to remain silent for the time being.

>>2078

Indeed, but if you are so paranoid a you say, Everyone knows who you are, unless you're just a well trained proxy."

>>2078

Sohneins who was content with the reply went back to wishing he was asleep and pondering what other Commoners had made it into the ranks of the Noble Council.

>>2079

>>2080

A smile finds its way on his face again. "One says I hide who I am too well, another says I am being too obvious. That's how I know I've found a good middle ground."

>>2081

"Or perhaps someone will stab you.", Sohneins said, slowly opening an eye peeking around for Lord Kulendros whom he hadn't even spotted yet.

>>2081

I wasn't saying you were obvious, just that revealing yourself does not suit your supposed paranoia.

Thundering Hooves who appears extremely tired of the whole show leans back in his chair and pulls out a pipe full of some plains grass to take the stress of the bickering lords off his mind.

>>2073

Silent after her speech Karasuba watches in amusement as the Common Lord made his proposal and spectacle. "I believe that Emperor Bello's last wish was for us to decide one of our own to succeed him, not to find some vagabond off the streets and put him there, are you so crass as to blatantly ignore the Last wishes of your deceased Sovereign?"

>>2085

"Actually, Lady Karasuba, his last wish was quite to the opposite effect. Emperor Bello's last wish was for us to ignore the common threads of succession, and choose someone other than his own son to be Emperor. I am merely taking that wish a step further, attempting to remove attempts from those assembled to try and place themselves or someone with obvious bias atop the throne."

>>2082

Some of the Vampires, that Lord Sohneins has brought it, whispered something to his ears.

>>2086

"So instead you would wish for us to put someone who would have no proper knowledge of how to run a lordship let alone an empire upon the throne. What then, do you think would happen? The answer is quite simple, the fledgling Emperor would attempt to turn to one of the Lords for advice, they may even try to ask more than one but inevitably one of the Lords will attempt to be the only one to hold the Emperor's ear and it will be as if they had been voted onto the throne."

>>2087

One of Malik's guards, a man wearing a heavy cloak with a heavy bow slung over his shoulder and a sword at his hip, watches the Vampire approach, and then leave soon after.

>>2084

The groups of Guards sent to follow Thundering Hooves comes and whispers something into his ear.

>>2090

Damn right they do.

So This has gotten rather quiet. Please tell me none of you are planning to attack the chambers with your honor guard.

>>2095

"CHARGE MY HORSEMEN. DIVE"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBe1hwg7V-M

>>2088

"The answer to that is simple Lady Karasuba. Any person presented to the council should undergo a test from each lord that is still regularly present in the voting sessions. If we ever do that we should, at least, discuss what each test would be with each other so that no test would contradict or be impossible."

>>2087

>>2091

Lord Haleer watches with interest.

>>2098

"Perhaps something similar? A trial of sorts to see if a candidate is worthy of the title? something unbiased as even if there was a test from each lord there could still be problems, especially if one of the lords wished to be Emperor. I believe that, as I said, there should be a set of trials to test what we believe to be the foundation of Leadership, the lord who hosts the trials would be unable to compete, but all else would be welcome."

"Infact as I have no desire for the Throne, I would like to volunteer to have such trials be constructed within my realm if we do agree on this idea."

((I have no idea if I'm getting my idea across, essentially a Temple of Trials or something similar a building where the candidate goes in and either fails, dies, or comes out Emperor.))

Did we move thread or are we still in the old thread? I'm confused.

Lord Zephos grimaces at the hooded man’s words. “I certainly hope that you are not implying that just because we are unlikely to resolve this without a war that we should not try.” Lord Zephos eyes the hooded man up and down. “Who are you anyway or who do you represent?”

"And that will conclude the Voting. It seems that the no decision has been chosen. It's a very sad shame.

Don't worry my Lords, the next Voting will go for much longer."

(Voting will go for much longer, but will happen at the same time as actions now.)

>>Fluff: A holy land for generations, the church is the absolute authority in Thucyld.

The general belief among those who are of the church of the monolith is that all gods who are of good alignment, don't wantonly abuse or torture their own, and genuinely care for their followers, are valid. As a result of this belief, the land has a relaxed policy about demihumans and human visitors from other lands, as Thucyld contains many temples from many different religions. Its other main cities are Harrowhead, a port city, and Delnyr, an inland city, though the ruins of the ancient and long extinct city of Thucyld reside here as well, and lend the region its name. Thucyld has been extinct for over 5000 years, and is recognized by the Jarrow-centered regional government as a holy site.

>Lord's Name: Edward Ast Zephos XVII

>Fluff:

The Noble house of Zephos has served the empire for generations and Edward is no exception. Just as his father and grandfather before he is an idealist who truly wishes for the empire to remain not only strong but fair and just. They are always researching into methods of safeguarding the empire as a whole but have found their efforts hampered endlessly by their fellow lords and their quests for power. Edward plans to continue to serve the empire faithfully while seeking a way to safeguard his own territory and his people against the predations of the other lords. He has a young son named Daniel but his wife is deceased.

Before the empire claimed it the island was named Babylon and it was the seat of a great rival power, but that was long ago. When the empire defeated Babylon they placed Edward’s ancestor, Edwin Zephos as the lord of the land as he was the General that saw Babylon dismantled. As a reward for his loyal service the Island was renamed and awarded to him. Sixteen generations later and the Zephos family has done everything in their power to have a good quality of life for their uniquely diverse populous, a result of the island being a former seat of power. The once dissident civilians and nobility of a former great power are now quite content under Zephos rule. One of the Island’s main attractions are the many ancient and mysterious ruins that dot it’s landscape drawing adventurers and historians alike into their dangerous depths…

Once she returns to her office to continue her duties she immediately commissions for the Expedition force to try and fully understand the ruins and what they offer to teach us.

Miss Elize also takes note of the Cotton they are receiving from Epidimeca and commissions for Textile workshops to be created, she also sighs at yet another report on their small storage and a request to expand it and commissions for it to be expanded as well.

>Lord's Name: Quin Shiwan

>Lord's Name: Quin Shiwan

>Fluff: Lord Quin Shiwan is the inheritor of the vast peoples of the Shiwan, the veritable head at the top of a heirarchy including some fantastical numbers of men.

It was tradition that the head of the clan go through the lives of their subjects, so he know what his people are like.

As such, from a young age, he was taught by eunuchs in numbers and figures, and agriculture.

He was made to live among farmers, to see how much food, grain, water, and cows could be raised in an amount of time, and how the people lived in their home.

He was made to march in an army, as a soldier, and count just how much food he ate, how much water he drank, how long he slept, and how far he could march.

Above all, he was made to know the very value of one man, so that the value of the hundreds, thousands, even millions could be made clear in his mind. Thus does the Lord become one with his people, and every grain of sand and every man accounted for.

>Kingdom's Name: Shiwan Dynasty

>Color: Bronze/Reddish BRown

>Fluff:

The Shiwan are loyal vassals of the Emperor, but their history runs older, deeper, and are ancient family and staunch allies of their brothers and sisters in the Bayushi clan, for whom they share the same language and faith.

Defeated in an old war by an old emperor after bending the knee, they have not abandoned that which they take pride in.

The Shiwan might have been legended as farmers, had they wanted to. Their fields were more fertile, their crops and cows and pigs more than any other, their rivers bountiful. But this is not what they take pride it.

They may not have the best equipment, the best magicians, or even the strongest men.

But Shiwan take pride in their numbers.

Their population is vast, some say more than many of the other Vassals combined.

Their armies make the ground quake on its march, that they drink rivers and ponds dry, and arrows blot the sun when they fight.

All men are pressed into service for the Emperor, and fielded into Shiwan legions, the only type of army of its kind in the entire Empire. In addition to numbers, they are also known as expert organizers and logisticians, for they need to be such that they hold the reigns on the greatest and massive fighting force the Island has ever seen.

The military backbone of the Emperor, where as the Karasuba can be described as his cloak and dagger, the Shiwan for providing their numbers have earned the monicker: the Emperor's sledgehammer.

In the domestic ground, most civilians are farmers, the rest being managers, accountants, and organizers. Women and families who give birth to many children gain a high status in life, and it is part of government regulation that all families who contribute a number of men to the army gain privileges, extra wages, and the ability to support more men. Polygamy is encouraged, and some families who have given birth and raised some dozens of men have rose from farmers to aristocrats in a stroke.

The same can be said for the barren and the single. Singlemen and women are scrutinized, and law dictates that after a certain age they be mandatorily paired up. Barren women are particularly out of luck, and almost shunned from all society. However barren men may become Eunuchs, and go to schools to serve as advisors and management of many.

Thus, quite a lot of the educated and organizing class are eunuchs.

>Lord's Name: Lady Hiemalis Von Der Nacht

>Fluff: The appointing of a female heir, especially when male heirs were available, was unheard of in Puszczagóra, until the king, tired of his officials' constant bickering an jockeying for position, name his eldest daughter, Hiemalis, as his successor, "JUST TO SHUT YOU BACKSTABBING FUCKS UP FOR FIVE GODFORSAKEN MINUTES". Riding out on a campaign, he promised to name a new heir as soon as he got back, "BY CROSS AND SEPULCHER, YOU NEEDLE-DICKS WOULDN'T WIAT TILL YOUR OWN GRAN WAS DEAD BEFORE STEALING HER FUCKING JEWLERY, WOULD YOU" he postponed the matter…but he never came back. Dying with an aneurysm while attempting to twist an enemy baron's head off with his bare hands, the kingdom passed to the girl, then only in her twentieth year.

At first the nobles of the kingdom refused to accept her, and a few openly declared that if she did not marry him (which would secure his place as king) he would revolt, splitting the kingdom, and possibly dissolving it forever. However, she had inherited her father's legendary rage and force of personality, along with the throne, and, after roasting most of the nobles (figuratively, of course), and making one eat her out in the throne room, they fell in line to a man.

The Hexxus family was one of the few houses to survive as they were blessed with leprosy and bodies that were beyond physical pain which was a sign to the people of Epidemica that they were chosen to lead them into this new age. The land turned out to be very agreeable with the changed peoples, hot and wet days but cool nights with the breeze and rain that comes off the pale waters of Corpse Bay to the west. Perfect for growing cotton to make cotton bandages which have been in style, though the advancement of metallurgy may replace the household bandage attire in the coming years. Industrious they work tirelessly as some do feel that they are beyond sleep and the smog of their many forges chokes the air and sun out of the city at times. They are also packed together quite tightly because if there is one thing misery loves it is company and now after many years the population has reached a normal level.

Eventually the empire's reign was contested and pushed out of the mainland, and the nation fell into economic downturn. It was Arvali, first of the Phylum line of Rajas, who ceded suzerainity to the Emperor and took a new title Padishah. His concessions to the victorious empire and stout mind for business saved Hendappa from the brink of collapse and turned it into an economic powerhouse. Though decreased in size, to the people of Hendappa their nation has lost none of its glory.

>Fluff: A mostly elven nation where the upper class mainly consists of high elves. Long ago there was an elven kingdom in the forest that worshiped a pantheon of gods and followed their mortal representatives on the mortal world. That was until the representative of the nature god slayed the others and claimed kingship of all elves. He brought hardship to the people and persecuted those that did not worship him. Many left, and he persecuted those harder. A group that worshiped the god of light, the high elves, settled a city upon the river and for many years lived in peace in their city of light. Then the forest king found them and began trying to burn their city. Many raids and sieges passed and the high elf were on the brink of destruction, when the first emperor began to expand the empire. The priests saw something in this human and found he was born the same day the old representative of light was killed. He was declared the new representative of the god of light on the mortal world and was given a deal by the high elven lord, help win the war and dethrone the king in the forest and their kingdom shall join the empire. The deal was struck and the war one, with the high elven lord given control of all that was the kingdom, and all it expanded to. The worshipers of the gods began to return and the city began to change with it, gaining representations of the worshipers as they made their marks. Marble buildings and light, parks and nature, fountains and water, and many more added to the city. The lord of the city had to manage it all, the different religions and their interactions, and to make the city and kingdom great. It is said the first lord looked upon the first parks and fountains and smiled, as the future was bright but his hardships had only just begun.

>Lord's Name: Elric Assuran

>Fluff: Elric is the human lord of Desolace. A man of average with broad shoulders dark ahair and a swarthy complexion. He looks at 50 much like he did at age 25, this combined with his stature leads some people to say he has dwarven blood in him. Elric despite looking otherwise is a thinker and a tinker. He routinely make clockwork machines and refines his designs to make them better. Indeed several of his designs are used in Desolace right now.

Elric is considered a political non-entity usually as no one wishes to bother his lands and he does not much care for anyone else's. However he is always watching, and analyzing as much in a common room among nobles as he is in his workshop making machines. He's know fool.

His military experience is lacking as there has been no need for it in long time in his lands, not since his great- grandfather. However it has been observed several of his machine could be used for war with relatively minor refits.

He is married with 3 children Marcus age 23 Amelia age 19 and Tyrat age 17. His wife Glynda is 45.

>Kingdom's Name: Desolace

>Color: 12 Grey

>Fluff: Desolace is a strange place home to the stout be secretive dwarves,the well inquisitive and experimenting gnomes as well an attendant human population. That's not the strange part, the strange part is magic in most of it forms won't function here. Thus despite the best efforts of many a sage or magician the notoriously poor rocky soil of Desolace is still barely arable. The people have made up for this by mastering the arts or mining, metalwork, smithing and tinkering. They create both the best metal goods in the empire, and mechanical wonders that boggle the mind. No small amount of brute labor is attended to by clockwork machines in Desolace, only made possible by the superior metals and intricate tinkering it's populace has learned over the centuries.

The economy of Desolace imports much of it's food while exporting metal goods, clockwork trinkets and other forged or finished products, also wine. Grapes grow very well in Desolace for some strange reason. This has shifted in recent years as with the advent of imporved clockwork machines people move to the city to find jobs, usually making clothing or attending to the smithies or refineries. The mines and few fertile fields are worked by man, dwarf, gnome and clockwork apparati.

The military of Desolace is loosely organized, there isn't much need for it since it's near the center of the empire. That being said Desolace troops get the best gear available. It's also be rumored that some clockwork machines have been fitted with weapons and armor in case there is a major military action needed.

Domestically the people of Desolace are mostly neutral with their lot, usually. They aggregate in cities due to the farms not needing them and work on mass production jobs. This raises discontent considerably. This is countered by the large amount of easy to obtain wine of various strengths. Since there is little in the way of nobility in Desolace(no one wanted the lands cause they mostly suck, so the few nobles hold vast swaths of it) so most people marry for love. The population remain small to no one's surprise as food is hard to obtain with importing.

>Kingdom's Name:Iloden

>Color: Purple(15)

>Fluff: Iloden is a cursed nation. Inside of it teem untold numbers of monsters, beast, and horrors of the night. At the beginning of the empire they were its scourge, its plague that almost toppled it until measures were taken. Somehow all the monsters were stored in Iloden, alongside thousands of innocents. Over centuries of death and madness the land has changed into one where the hunted are now the hunters. Solo seekers, groups of slayers, armies of warriors, the people have become accustomed to their dark and deadly world. But even with all their skill they could not stand against such horrific creatures…unless they had a blessing. The people of Iloden are also monsters, their human forms barely containing their bloodlust and madness. To be a man in Iloden is to be a creature of death, murder, and feral mind, kept together through the darker parts of mortal minds. Blessed(to them)by a number of gods they are the assassins, hunters, and slayers of the empire. Sadly they all carry the massive risk of going feral, becoming the same things they slay and eat…

>Color: Blue 3

>Fluff: A mostly elven nation where the upper class mainly consists of high elves. Long ago there was an elven kingdom in the forest that worshiped a pantheon of gods and followed their mortal representatives on the mortal world. That was until the representative of the nature god slayed the others and claimed kingship of all elves. He brought hardship to the people and persecuted those that did not worship him. Many left, and he persecuted those harder. A group that worshiped the god of light, the high elves, settled a city upon the river and for many years lived in peace in their city of light. Then the forest king found them and began trying to burn their city. Many raids and sieges passed and the high elf were on the brink of destruction, when the first emperor began to expand the empire. The priests saw something in this human and found he was born the same day the old representative of light was killed. He was declared the new representative of the god of light on the mortal world and was given a deal by the high elven lord, help win the war and dethrone the king in the forest and their kingdom shall join the empire. The deal was struck and the war one, with the high elven lord given control of all that was the kingdom, and all it expanded to. The worshipers of the gods began to return and the city began to change with it, gaining representations of the worshipers as they made their marks. Marble buildings and light, parks and nature, fountains and water, and many more added to the city. The lord of the city had to manage it all, the different religions and their interactions, and to make the city and kingdom great. It is said the first lord looked upon the first parks and fountains and smiled, as the future was bright but his hardships had only just begun.

It was tradition that the head of the clan go through the lives of their subjects, so he know what his people are like.

As such, from a young age, he was taught by eunuchs in numbers and figures, and agriculture.

He was made to live among farmers, to see how much food, grain, water, and cows could be raised in an amount of time, and how the people lived in their home.

He was made to march in an army, as a soldier, and count just how much food he ate, how much water he drank, how long he slept, and how far he could march.

Above all, he was made to know the very value of one man, so that the value of the hundreds, thousands, even millions could be made clear in his mind. Thus does the Lord become one with his people, and every grain of sand and every man accounted for.

>Kingdom's Name: Shiwan Dynasty

>Color: Bronze/Reddish BRown

>Fluff:

The Shiwan are loyal vassals of the Emperor, but their history runs older, deeper, and are ancient family and staunch allies of their brothers and sisters in the Bayushi clan, for whom they share the same language and faith.

Defeated in an old war by an old emperor after bending the knee, they have not abandoned that which they take pride in.

The Shiwan might have been legended as farmers, had they wanted to. Their fields were more fertile, their crops and cows and pigs more than any other, their rivers bountiful. But this is not what they take pride it.

They may not have the best equipment, the best magicians, or even the strongest men.

But Shiwan take pride in their numbers.

Their population is vast, some say more than many of the other Vassals combined.

Their armies make the ground quake on its march, that they drink rivers and ponds dry, and arrows blot the sun when they fight.

All men are pressed into service for the Emperor, and fielded into Shiwan legions, the only type of army of its kind in the entire Empire. In addition to numbers, they are also known as expert organizers and logisticians, for they need to be such that they hold the reigns on the greatest and massive fighting force the Island has ever seen.

The military backbone of the Emperor, where as the Karasuba can be described as his cloak and dagger, the Shiwan for providing their numbers have earned the monicker: the Emperor's sledgehammer.

In the domestic ground, most civilians are farmers, the rest being managers, accountants, and organizers. Women and families who give birth to many children gain a high status in life, and it is part of government regulation that all families who contribute a number of men to the army gain privileges, extra wages, and the ability to support more men. Polygamy is encouraged, and some families who have given birth and raised some dozens of men have rose from farmers to aristocrats in a stroke.

The same can be said for the barren and the single. Singlemen and women are scrutinized, and law dictates that after a certain age they be mandatorily paired up. Barren women are particularly out of luck, and almost shunned from all society. However barren men may become Eunuchs, and go to schools to serve as advisors and management of many.

Thus, quite a lot of the educated and organizing class are eunuchs.

He is a man of wealth and progress, forsaking superstition and tradition for growth and industry. Artifice is encouraged under his reign, and though this brings animosity from the brahmin and priests, it has made his region wealthy and prosperous.

>Fluff: Hendappa was once a great empire of polytheistic faith and stalwart military might. From its island heartland it conquered great swaths of the coast and enslaved many. Eventually the empire's reign was contested and pushed out of the mainland, and the nation fell into economic downturn. It was Arvali, first of the Phylum line of Rajas, who ceded suzerainity to the Emperor and took a new title Padishah. His concessions to the victorious empire and stout mind for business saved Hendappa from the brink of collapse and turned it into an economic powerhouse. Though decreased in size, to the people of Hendappa their nation has lost none of its glory.

>Lord's Name: Edward Ast Zephos XVII

>Fluff:

The Noble house of Zephos has served the empire for generations and Edward is no exception. Just as his father and grandfather before he is an idealist who truly wishes for the empire to remain not only strong but fair and just. They are always researching into methods of safeguarding the empire as a whole but have found their efforts hampered endlessly by their fellow lords and their quests for power. Edward plans to continue to serve the empire faithfully while seeking a way to safeguard his own territory and his people against the predations of the other lords. He has a young son named Daniel but his wife is deceased.

Before the empire claimed it the island was named Babylon and it was the seat of a great rival power, but that was long ago. When the empire defeated Babylon they placed Edward’s ancestor, Edwin Zephos as the lord of the land as he was the General that saw Babylon dismantled. As a reward for his loyal service the Island was renamed and awarded to him. Sixteen generations later and the Zephos family has done everything in their power to have a good quality of life for their uniquely diverse populous, a result of the island being a former seat of power. The once dissident civilians and nobility of a former great power are now quite content under Zephos rule. One of the Island’s main attractions are the many ancient and mysterious ruins that dot it’s landscape drawing adventurers and historians alike into their dangerous depths…

Lord Zephos is deeply troubled by this turn of events, he will order three of his Lords Hand to make arrangements for his departure to Aphak to lend his aid. He also sends a letter back home letting them know of the epidemic and that he will be gone longer than anticipated.

Lord Zephos begins to tap his foot in an irritated manner. "So, you have only heard rumors and yet you felt informed enough to not only form three separate ideas on what to do about the epidemic but also that you could tell all the Lords of the Empire to head towards Aphak to try and offer a solution."

Lord Zephos sighs.

"I had assumed when you informed me that I should head towards Aphak that I would actually be able to do something once there. What exactly is it that you expect me or the other lords to do in Aphak? What aren't you telling us?"

This blockade will, using men equipped with easily burnable protective armor, scour any incoming or nearby ships for signs of the ore plague.

>Lord's Name: Lady Hiemalis Von Der Nacht

>Fluff: The appointing of a female heir, especially when male heirs were available, was unheard of in Puszczagóra, until the king, tired of his officials' constant bickering an jockeying for position, name his eldest daughter, Hiemalis, as his successor, "JUST TO SHUT YOU BACKSTABBING FUCKS UP FOR FIVE GODFORSAKEN MINUTES". Riding out on a campaign, he promised to name a new heir as soon as he got back, "BY CROSS AND SEPULCHER, YOU NEEDLE-DICKS WOULDN'T WIAT TILL YOUR OWN GRAN WAS DEAD BEFORE STEALING HER FUCKING JEWLERY, WOULD YOU" he postponed the matter…but he never came back. Dying with an aneurysm while attempting to twist an enemy baron's head off with his bare hands, the kingdom passed to the girl, then only in her twentieth year.

At first the nobles of the kingdom refused to accept her, and a few openly declared that if she did not marry him (which would secure his place as king) he would revolt, splitting the kingdom, and possibly dissolving it forever. However, she had inherited her father's legendary rage and force of personality, along with the throne, and, after roasting most of the nobles (figuratively, of course), and making one eat her out in the throne room, they fell in line to a man.

The land turned out to be very agreeable with the changed peoples, hot and wet days but cool nights with the breeze and rain that comes off the pale waters of Corpse Bay to the west. Perfect for growing cotton to make cotton bandages which have been in style, though the advancement of metallurgy may replace the household bandage attire in the coming years. Industrious they work tirelessly as some do feel that they are beyond sleep and the smog of their many forges chokes the air and sun out of the city at times. They are also packed together quite tightly because if there is one thing misery loves it is company and now after many years the population has reached a normal level.

"Dear Lord Zephos, I am afraid I have lacked the opportunity to speak to you at the assembly earlier this week. However I have obtained a most curious piece of information.

When I was at the royal court I have repeatedly been informed about the head of the Shiwan Dynasty and Lady Karasuba of the Scorpion Clan's alliance which may extend further than one would anticipate!

I was informed by several servants that they have heard from the stable boys who in turn had overheard some of the noble knights that the two of them were engaging in improper.. relations while staying in the Capital! Certainly these are scandalous news, seeing as Lord Shiwan is married.

Of course I would not merely believe any rumor, however when I inquired when this supposed affair should have happened they were able to give me most detailed information around the time of the first vote.

I am not certain what to do with this information or if I should merely remain silent. " - Grats n greets Lord Sohneins

>>Kingdom's Name: Thucyld

>>Color: gold & black, state 5

>>Fluff: A holy land for generations, the church is the absolute authority in Thucyld. Its main city, Jarrow, is a sacred precinct, its only permanent inhabitants are monks, nuns, and various temple staff. The general belief among those who are of the church of the monolith is that all gods who are of good alignment, don't wantonly abuse or torture their own, and genuinely care for their followers, are valid. As a result of this belief, the land has a relaxed policy about demihumans and human visitors from other lands, as Thucyld contains many temples from many different religions. Its other main cities are Harrowhead, a port city, and Delnyr, an inland city, though the ruins of the ancient and long extinct city of Thucyld reside here as well, and lend the region its name. Thucyld has been extinct for over 5000 years, and is recognized by the Jarrow-centered regional government as a holy site.

This is a draft only, and not for circulation.

2-4: Citizens of Thucyld may sign up to receive house beautification with the tax goods, this costs citizens that sign up for it nothing and no labor.

The raven is sent from Thucyld back to Aruile bearing a reply.

"Esteemed Lord, dark news indeed. We wish you every luck and success you can find on your journey, and we inform you that should you come back with a cure, Onasser I will elevate a member of your bloodline to sainthood as long as they meet the following criteria; deceased for at least 25 years, of good character, and of honorable conduct before men and gods. The soul of this individual will depart from wheresoever in the afterlife they reside and journey to a celestial palace, where they will reside ever afterward. In addition, your army, naval, and personal retinue may bear this Saint's eikon before them for whatsoever purpose, this privilege being unique to your bloodline and armed forces."

The message bears the seal of Onasser I, a patriarchatus holding a model of a church in his right hand, and a holy staff with incense censer in his left hand, crushing a demon under his feet, a massive monolith in the background.

>Fluff: Elric is the human lord of Desolace. A man of average with broad shoulders dark ahair and a swarthy complexion. He looks at 50 much like he did at age 25, this combined with his stature leads some people to say he has dwarven blood in him. Elric despite looking otherwise is a thinker and a tinker. He routinely make clockwork machines and refines his designs to make them better. Indeed several of his designs are used in Desolace right now.

Elric is considered a political non-entity usually as no one wishes to bother his lands and he does not much care for anyone else's. However he is always watching, and analyzing as much in a common room among nobles as he is in his workshop making machines. He's know fool.

His military experience is lacking as there has been no need for it in long time in his lands, not since his great- grandfather. However it has been observed several of his machine could be used for war with relatively minor refits.

He is married with 3 children Marcus age 23 Amelia age 19 and Tyrat age 17. His wife Glynda is 45.

>Kingdom's Name: Desolace

>Color: 12 Grey

>Fluff: Desolace is a strange place home to the stout be secretive dwarves,the well inquisitive and experimenting gnomes as well an attendant human population. That's not the strange part, the strange part is magic in most of it forms won't function here. Thus despite the best efforts of many a sage or magician the notoriously poor rocky soil of Desolace is still barely arable. The people have made up for this by mastering the arts or mining, metalwork, smithing and tinkering. They create both the best metal goods in the empire, and mechanical wonders that boggle the mind. No small amount of brute labor is attended to by clockwork machines in Desolace, only made possible by the superior metals and intricate tinkering it's populace has learned over the centuries.

The economy of Desolace imports much of it's food while exporting metal goods, clockwork trinkets and other forged or finished products, also wine. Grapes grow very well in Desolace for some strange reason. This has shifted in recent years as with the advent of imporved clockwork machines people move to the city to find jobs, usually making clothing or attending to the smithies or refineries. The mines and few fertile fields are worked by man, dwarf, gnome and clockwork apparati.

The military of Desolace is loosely organized, there isn't much need for it since it's near the center of the empire. That being said Desolace troops get the best gear available. It's also be rumored that some clockwork machines have been fitted with weapons and armor in case there is a major military action needed.

Domestically the people of Desolace are mostly neutral with their lot, usually. They aggregate in cities due to the farms not needing them and work on mass production jobs. This raises discontent considerably. This is countered by the large amount of easy to obtain wine of various strengths. Since there is little in the way of nobility in Desolace(no one wanted the lands cause they mostly suck, so the few nobles hold vast swaths of it) so most people marry for love. The population remain small to no one's surprise as food is hard to obtain with importing.

"Let this be a lesson to you. Go ask the god yourself in a temple marked by the Disease God."

Leader: Praefectus Kaelian

Fluff: Kaelian stands as a testament to the power of the Aphrak mastery of biology. While outsiders may view him as the "perfect man", due to his meticulously designed breeding and the careful alterations after his birth, anyone who says this to his face is met with a simple "I am not worthy" from the leader of the Aphrak himself. While his claim to rule would be dubious in the lands to the North, in Aphrak he stands as the undisputed ruler, born from a skilled hunter, and a wise woman from two tribes who had previously never known eachothers names. The Praefectus of Aphrak appeared and united the tribes many years after the Saint's arrival, almost immediately after a mysterious group called The Sect had finished cataloguing the tribal groups of Aphrak. His unification was bloodless, and swift, which many attribute to his superior biology, but rumors of pheremone control and mental manipulation are spoken in whisper throughout the tribal elders…

>Skill:

>Bonus:

Nation Name: Aphrak

Fluff: Before the Saint arrived, we were beaten and broken masses. A fallen relic of the civilization that had propelled us to the apex of luxury and life. Consumed by civil war, disease, and decadence, we fell to tribal families roaming the wastes. Only when we were instructed by the Saint on the art and science that is biology, did we fully realize the truth of this world. And how unworthy our current form is.

We have arisen renewed; a fierce and powerful people. We flay the bodies of our enemies to add their strength to our own. We crack the skulls of our foes to absorb their knowledge. We desecrate the graves of the fallen to learn why they failed. We breed beasts of burden and war, unmatched by mother nature herself. We have catalogued and studied all variations of life in pursuit of perfection. And with this we have conquered. With this we have pillaged. With this, we have claimed our lands under one banner, uncontested. But we are still unworthy, and we need more.

We consume because it strengthens us. We graft because it hardens us. We destroy because it teaches us. And we give no quarter, take no living prisoner. Fear us, unworthy, for we know the depth of your failing, the gravity of your waste. Fear us, civilization. For we have seen your glory, your knowledge, and your wealth.

And we have found it wanting.

Since there is little in the way of nobility in Desolace(no one wanted the lands cause they mostly suck, so the few nobles hold vast swaths of it) so most people marry for love. The population remain small to no one's surprise as food is hard to obtain with importing.

He is a man of wealth and progress, forsaking superstition and tradition for growth and industry. Artifice is encouraged under his reign, and though this brings animosity from the brahmin and priests, it has made his region wealthy and prosperous.

>Color: Deep Orange or Red (20)

>Fluff: Hendappa was once a great empire of polytheistic faith and stalwart military might. From its island heartland it conquered great swaths of the coast and enslaved many. Eventually the empire's reign was contested and pushed out of the mainland, and the nation fell into economic downturn. It was Arvali, first of the Phylum line of Rajas, who ceded suzerainity to the Emperor and took a new title Padishah. His concessions to the victorious empire and stout mind for business saved Hendappa from the brink of collapse and turned it into an economic powerhouse. Though decreased in size, to the people of Hendappa their nation has lost none of its glory.

>Lord's Name: Quin Shiwan

>Lord's Name: Quin Shiwan

>Fluff: Lord Quin Shiwan is the inheritor of the vast peoples of the Shiwan, the veritable head at the top of a heirarchy including some fantastical numbers of men.

It was tradition that the head of the clan go through the lives of their subjects, so he know what his people are like.

As such, from a young age, he was taught by eunuchs in numbers and figures, and agriculture.

He was made to live among farmers, to see how much food, grain, water, and cows could be raised in an amount of time, and how the people lived in their home.

He was made to march in an army, as a soldier, and count just how much food he ate, how much water he drank, how long he slept, and how far he could march.

Above all, he was made to know the very value of one man, so that the value of the hundreds, thousands, even millions could be made clear in his mind. Thus does the Lord become one with his people, and every grain of sand and every man accounted for.

>Kingdom's Name: Shiwan Dynasty

>Color: Bronze/Reddish BRown

>Fluff:

The Shiwan are loyal vassals of the Emperor, but their history runs older, deeper, and are ancient family and staunch allies of their brothers and sisters in the Bayushi clan, for whom they share the same language and faith.

Defeated in an old war by an old emperor after bending the knee, they have not abandoned that which they take pride in.

The Shiwan might have been legended as farmers, had they wanted to. Their fields were more fertile, their crops and cows and pigs more than any other, their rivers bountiful. But this is not what they take pride it.

They may not have the best equipment, the best magicians, or even the strongest men.

But Shiwan take pride in their numbers.

Their population is vast, some say more than many of the other Vassals combined.

Their armies make the ground quake on its march, that they drink rivers and ponds dry, and arrows blot the sun when they fight.

All men are pressed into service for the Emperor, and fielded into Shiwan legions, the only type of army of its kind in the entire Empire. In addition to numbers, they are also known as expert organizers and logisticians, for they need to be such that they hold the reigns on the greatest and massive fighting force the Island has ever seen.

The military backbone of the Emperor, where as the Karasuba can be described as his cloak and dagger, the Shiwan for providing their numbers have earned the monicker: the Emperor's sledgehammer.

In the domestic ground, most civilians are farmers, the rest being managers, accountants, and organizers. Women and families who give birth to many children gain a high status in life, and it is part of government regulation that all families who contribute a number of men to the army gain privileges, extra wages, and the ability to support more men. Polygamy is encouraged, and some families who have given birth and raised some dozens of men have rose from farmers to aristocrats in a stroke.

The same can be said for the barren and the single. Singlemen and women are scrutinized, and law dictates that after a certain age they be mandatorily paired up. Barren women are particularly out of luck, and almost shunned from all society. However barren men may become Eunuchs, and go to schools to serve as advisors and management of many.

Thus, quite a lot of the educated and organizing class are eunuchs.

>Fluff: Leper King of Epidemica, the royal blood gives its blessings and its curses in full to this man who knows no pain and is believed by the people that it grants him robust strength and immunity to the plagues that thrive in the rabble of the city proper. From behind a mask of white mithril Bob's eyes are proud and seemingly unblinking. He loves to talk and sing, his voice deep and sinuous he caresses his words. The Hexxus Line has long reigns some outlasting their great great grandsons as if the diseases that spring from Epidemica produced an internal fount of life but the unlucky ones never last.

>Fluff: The people of Epidemica were struck by a most foul plague that killed two thirds of the population and left the rest to wallow in the suffering of mortality, they migrated closer to the ceremonial graveyard lands and buried their dead some centuries ago. The Hexxus family was one of the few houses to survive as they were blessed with leprosy and bodies that were beyond physical pain which was a sign to the people of Epidemica that they were chosen to lead them into this new age. The land turned out to be very agreeable with the changed peoples, hot and wet days but cool nights with the breeze and rain that comes off the pale waters of Corpse Bay to the west. Perfect for growing cotton to make cotton bandages which have been in style, though the advancement of metallurgy may replace the household bandage attire in the coming years. Industrious they work tirelessly as some do feel that they are beyond sleep and the smog of their many forges chokes the air and sun out of the city at times. They are also packed together quite tightly because if there is one thing misery loves it is company and now after many years the population has reached a normal level.

Kaelian leans back in his chair, unnerved by the missive the Sect has passed onto him. Foreigners on Aphrak soil. The Saint predicted this. Although Kaelian never doubted her, he wished it wouldn't come during his rule. Such barbarism he must subject his people to. He speaks to no one in particular, but loudly enough for the hall to hear.

"So it has begun. Civilization has found our shores." He sighs heavily, "Bring me the Elder representatives from the Farmlands, the Pools, and the Steppes. We have work to do."

The general belief among those who are of the church of the monolith is that all gods who are of good alignment, don't wantonly abuse or torture their own, and genuinely care for their followers, are valid. As a result of this belief, the land has a relaxed policy about demihumans and human visitors from other lands, as Thucyld contains many temples from many different religions. Its other main cities are Harrowhead, a port city, and Delnyr, an inland city, though the ruins of the ancient and long extinct city of Thucyld reside here as well, and lend the region its name. Thucyld has been extinct for over 5000 years, and is recognized by the Jarrow-centered regional government as a holy site.

Just as his father and grandfather before he is an idealist who truly wishes for the empire to remain not only strong but fair and just. They are always researching into methods of safeguarding the empire as a whole but have found their efforts hampered endlessly by their fellow lords and their quests for power.

Before the empire claimed it the island was named Babylon and it was the seat of a great rival power, but that was long ago. When the empire defeated Babylon they placed Edward’s ancestor, Edwin Zephos as the lord of the land as he was the General that saw Babylon dismantled. As a reward for his loyal service the Island was renamed and awarded to him. Sixteen generations later and the Zephos family has done everything in their power to have a good quality of life for their uniquely diverse populous, a result of the island being a former seat of power. The once dissident civilians and nobility of a former great power are now quite content under Zephos rule. One of the Island’s main attractions are the many ancient and mysterious ruins that dot it’s landscape drawing adventurers and historians alike into their dangerous depths…

The ornate ebony cylinder is sent back to Quin Shiwan containing a reply to his message. The reply is written in 2 languages, the -ANCIENTLATININALLCAPSWITHHARDLYANYPUNCTUATION- of Truchio, which only uses 2 punctuations, a "." to indicate the end of a word and a "-" to indicate the start or end of a sentence, and in the imperial high tongue.

"To the esteemed Lord Quin Shiwan. You honor us highly with your message, but we cannot simply declare it to be so and then it will be from then on, we require a formal meeting with officially recognized diplomats. This is not at all to say or imply in any way that we are not interested in what you offer, we are, it is simply a custom of our people that when a concordat is made, it is done through formal diplomatic negotiations. We invite you to send a group of envoys, who will be housed at our Hotel for the duration of the visit. In regards to missionaries, we inform you that we wish to negotiate our missionaries use of the Iron corner roads, in addition to other matters at this meeting, and we are open to sharing our preservation techniques with you if it may be arranged that we gain something we do not have in likewise manner."

The scroll bears the seal of Onasser I, the patriarch standing on a defeated demon, holding a model of a church in right hand, holding a staff + incense censer in left hand, and monolith in the background.

A catechism was included so that Lord Quin Shiwan can review what the people of Thucyld actually believe, here following in brief.

>All gods of good alignment who don't torture, don't wantonly mistreat, and who genuinely care for their followers are valid.

>Missionary work is valid.

>Marriages, the anointing of infant children, and funerals are to go on in temples, and must have a valid official to be valid.

>Charity between followers is acceptable, and to be expected.

>Men or women of sufficient character and ability can enter the priesthood.

>It is the duty of all members of the religion to oppose beings who are of chaos darkness and evil, heretics, and beings without souls.

>The gods, good or evil, are aware of everything you do say think and feel.

>Saints and Deities have their own special days.

>The gods hear prayer, and prayers should be said regularly.

>Beings who have committed great crimes (ex child murder, defiling a temple, other very serious offenses) are ritually unclean and cannot and should not, enter the temple.

>Selflessly doing good deeds, or offering sacrifices to the gods, removes varying amounts of sin from a person.

>There are 4 mortal sins; greed, envy, wrath, and sloth. There are 3 deadly sins; treachery, suicide, and fraud. The 4 mortal sins are simply very serious, its possible to de-sin-ify yourself from them. The 3 deadly sins are not, you are damned to hell for eternity over them.

>Render the palace the things that belong to it, the temple the things that belong to it. Withholding either is a sin.

>Avoid eating things that eat dead bodies, wallow in their own filthiness, or are known to be venomous.

>Necromancy and Demonology are considered witch-craft, any practice of either surely damns a soul to hell.

>The celestial palaces are a wonderous place where everyone is eternally young, can fly, lives in gold/platinum/jewel-studded palaces, and enjoys daily feasts and revels. Hell is a dark, horrible pit which gets progressively more evil as one goes deeper, relentless hunger, misery, and pain are everywhere and always there.

It is not uncommon to see a person with the mandibles of a mantis enjoying some Noodles. The lucky ones, Are called True Demons: They are blessed with the ability to take the form of more than one Vermin as well as command the them.

The city is quite peaceful, Except for the night of the feast, when the moon glows a sickly green and those of demonic decent go on a frenzy. Mothers eat their babes; Lovers devour each other wholly; Husbands consume their concubines. The streets are caked with the blood of Family and friends.

>Kingdom's Name: Kelthas Glade

>Color: Blue 3

>Fluff: A mostly elven nation where the upper class mainly consists of high elves. Long ago there was an elven kingdom in the forest that worshiped a pantheon of gods and followed their mortal representatives on the mortal world. That was until the representative of the nature god slayed the others and claimed kingship of all elves. He brought hardship to the people and persecuted those that did not worship him. Many left, and he persecuted those harder. A group that worshiped the god of light, the high elves, settled a city upon the river and for many years lived in peace in their city of light. Then the forest king found them and began trying to burn their city. Many raids and sieges passed and the high elf were on the brink of destruction, when the first emperor began to expand the empire. The priests saw something in this human and found he was born the same day the old representative of light was killed. He was declared the new representative of the god of light on the mortal world and was given a deal by the high elven lord, help win the war and dethrone the king in the forest and their kingdom shall join the empire. The deal was struck and the war one, with the high elven lord given control of all that was the kingdom, and all it expanded to. The worshipers of the gods began to return and the city began to change with it, gaining representations of the worshipers as they made their marks. Marble buildings and light, parks and nature, fountains and water, and many more added to the city. The lord of the city had to manage it all, the different religions and their interactions, and to make the city and kingdom great. It is said the first lord looked upon the first parks and fountains and smiled, as the future was bright but his hardships had only just begun.
