/builders/ - Hero and Nation Builders!

Name: The Mericon

Race: Mericon (Large Bipedal Cockroaches)

Color: Black (or Red).

Government Type: Elite consensus.

Economy Type: Neofeudal / Autarkic

Religion: The Mericon worship power, and power only.

Location: Mountains, any mountains.

The Mericon are a race that vaguely resemble slouching bipedal cockroaches. The Mericon are utterly alien, savage, relentless, and prolific; everywhere the Mericon go they blight the world with conquest and war. They are harsh, industrious, vicious, and mean; they play to win – and if they do not win, they will make sure others certainly lose. If this particular group replicates the general neurosis of the race is in question.

When wars start, Mericon find their purpose and meaning. By gripping the collective hatred and unity of action that comes with war, the Mericon society regenerates itself through an intensification of skills, procedures, and rationalization – but most of all purpose. Every war for the Mericon is a chance to enact the hatred that each Mericon has on an unsuspecting target, enemy, or other – even the smallest Mericon feels a glee from the grand struggle, and it gives their lives meaning and purpose. For the Mericon, war is truly an ekstatic experience that temporarily placates their psychology; to die fighting against the hated enemy is to be relieved of the shrieking howling neurotic misery of their lives in a fashion in keeping with the values of their society. It is what all Mericon strive to do and it is what all Mericon hope to express. Only by their death is the pain ended, and only by their death will the pain of the other be extinguished. But this is not enough: the pain must be inflicted upon all other forms of life, forever. And so the Mericon breed – they breed ferociously.

Name: Selgani Tribes

Race: Human

Color: Green

Fluff: The Selgani people have roams the plains for generations. Since the cataclysm claim and swallowed the great cities and high lords. Indeed they too were once of the cities, vain and proud, and only barely escaped their fate because of the visions of clan of seers, the Selgan, their namesakes.

The people heeding the words of the seers, and their esoteric gods, fled the cities, a trickle by the cities' estimate but massive by any numbers of today. Soon after the cataclysms came and swallowed everything up, destroying man, elf and others, as well as their works. The Selgani fell on harsh times afterwards, in a cold world devoid of empathy, magic or civilization. Still they endured despite losing bits of themselves year by year. In time they adapted to the plains. Now they thrive, hunting and foraging. Their only settlement Gaskan, a testament to what once was, and may yet be again.

Government Type: The chief of Gaskan is the technical ruler of the Selgani. He is the Great Chief. Still they are clannish by nature and each chief wishes to rule and expands the holdings of his clan and kin.

Economy Type: Cooperative and competitive. The Selgani work together to survive, but they also work to one up each other or to usurp valuable resources from each other. Generally a threat will make them drop old grievances to fight together however, and the Great's Chief's word command much weight.

Religion: The seers and medicine men govern the religion of the Selgani. They entreat the spirits of the seasons and the spirits of the lands. They offer sacrifices and read portents. The lead the holy ceremonies on the appropriate days, and name the children when they come of age.

Location: Anywhere where there are lots of plains and herds of animals.

Name: Laell, the Phoenix Kingdom

Race: Human

Color: Green with white trim

Fluff: Laell in the current era is a nation little over a hundred years old. It suffers regularly from intense internal struggles for control of the Throne by the rival nobles and an exceptionally powerful bureaucracy. While Laellese struggles harm themselves their history has taught them the value of unity in the face of an invasion. That unity simply returns to squabbling and intrigue once the threat has passed.

Laell once was a jewel of a much larger empire. That empire abandoned it as it slowly but surely lost power, but some of its institutions inherited the power left in the void. The rich merchants with their own forces became the nobles, the bureaucrats changed their allegiances, and from the ashes a powerful general arose as king. He was a brilliant warrior, but lacked the capability to govern. He was murdered in a popular uprising started by the bureaucracy and a new noble replaced him. The current Phoenix King is Oraik Ku Pyrdiv, of House Ilariel.

Government Type: The government of Laell is organized around the principal of the Four Walls: the Bureaucracy, the Nobility, the Commoners, and the Phoenix King. There are nearly forty noble houses, but the Bureaucracy only allows a Phoenix King to ascend from the Twelve Great Houses who changes according to fortune and circumstances. Both the King and the Houses abide by the Compact - a document from the prior Empire upheld as the supreme law that makes rebellion in the event of poor leadership not just a right, but a requirement, a social, spiritual, and personal duty to all Laellese. Ironically it's this exact sort of documentation that led to the collapse of the previous empire.

Economy Type: Guild-based with strong commodity marketing. The Guild have a complete stranglehold over production of manufactured goods, but outside of urban centers the market is almost strictly in commodities.

Religion: Laellese religion is centered around the Duality: Life and Death, Happiness and sadness, sickness and health etc. At the center of this duality is the Phoenix, a mythical creature that has taken on intense importance due to its ability to ignore the Duality.

Location: At the fork in the rivers near the south-western lake

>Lizardmen

>Yellow

>Fluff:

Dark, humid, foreboding, and isolated, the island rainforests of Vizera were left alone even before the Fall. Presumed inhospitable and unsettle-able by many in Vizera, something has indeed risen up in the jungle- the Sunspeakers, sapient Lizardmen fanatically obsessed with the worship of Sul'Ingu, the Lightbringer, who warms their bodies and gives them light and life. Having just recently crawled out of a more primal state of life, they follow the young priest-king Zaeru the Flameborn in their quest to discover the secrets of fire, which they believe is sacred to Sul'Ingu.

Soon, all shall worship the Lightbringer, and the Sunspeakers, lead by their king, will be his heralds.

>Government: Theocratic Monarchy headed by Zaeru the Flameborn

>Economy: Command

>Religion: The cult of Sul'Ingu, the lightbringer. The Sunspeakers believe that it was the sun itself that gave them their intelligence and allowed them to crawl their way out of a more primal state.

Name: The Oracle Society

Race: Humans

Color: Black with White Trim

Fluff: The Nation of the Oracle began from a lesser known political society that believed that a social change in the immediate system at the time was faulty. Their religious styling consists of their prediction for a coming end of the world. Isolating themselves on a small island, they prepare for what they believe will be the end. Proud warriors with an interest in developing new technologies and a defensive and orderly mindset over offensive.

>>11876

Name: The Burning Empire

Race: Devilion

Color: Black with a red star

Fluff: Supposedly descended from Demons long ago, the Devilion race were famed for the magic inherited from their lineage, they based their entire society on it. When the fall happened their society was devestated, chaos reigned and civil war broke out. Eventually everything settled and the Burning Empire was formed from the ashes. Clawing their way back up to their former glory, one bloody inch at a time. Now their society is based on power and conquest, if you can kill for it then it is yours by right of conquest. It is believed that their goddess inhabits the souls of those who become Empress, until the goddess gets bored and chooses a new vessel that then kills the old vessel. With this the cycle of conquest continues and the Empire grows stronger having culled the weak and sick.

Government Type: Matriarchal Imperial Dictatorship based on strength and a "keep what you kill" style of government

Economy Type: A gem based economy, the lands around The Burning Empire is rich in jewels from the magic of a long forgotten era, various jewels have different values.

{Will do more fluff later, hope this is enough for bonuses}

Name: The Golden Web

Race: Arachea

Color: Pink

Fluff:

An Arachnea is a monstrous creature, with a vaguely humanoid top half, covered in chitin, bristly hair and hard shell. With four arms, the lower pair a set of bludgeoning claws.

Their head contains 6 eyes, arranged around their head in a crown, giving them unparelled range of vision. Unlike what most people would think given the obvious spider influences their bite is not venomous. Instead they possess sharp teeth that can chew through almost anything.

Their bottom half is a huge tauroid teardrop, with eight legs and a spinnerette at the rear end capable of producing webbing.

The first Archanea was not born, but created, a creature that was a fusion of a rat, cockroach, spider, and man. Though wholly unmagical it is clear that their creation had magic involved. Why this was done so is lost to the annals of the Fall and Time. However the shamans of the Golden Web do know they were used as shock troopers. Their size, lethality, ability to make traps with webbing or chew through stone made them excellent soldiers. And because each Arachnea is born pregnant their numbers never die down.

After the fall the Arachnea offered their services to whomever would feed them in return for their battle experience. It took a long time for the Arachnea to begin to become something other then roaming soldiers and mercenaries.

Government Type: The Golden Web follows Queen Riskilia, she who sits upon the Golden Web. Riskilia is unusual for a Arachnea, as she never grew beyond her child-like size of a mere 1 meter tall and long. A mere third of the size of her sisters. Furthermore she was far more human looking to them lacking most of the chitin and hair her sisters have on their upper halves. What she lacked in battle capability she made up with her mind and her ability to talk. She rallied the small bands of Arachnea, one small group at a time, until she had a horde and instead of using them for war she set about them forging a nation. All Arachnea revere her for ending the Time of Travels where any Arachnea could die at a moments notice due to constant warfare.

Economy Type: The Arachnea primarily dealt with Barter in the Time of Travels, putting their services of Mercenaries in return for food. Riskilia has only just begun to change that.

Religion: All Arachnea worship Kali, a goddess who has destroyed the world once and recreated it in her image. They believe that Kali is responsible for the Fall and that they are her soldiers who helped make it happen. Riskilia wants them to be more then soldiers so she has been emphasizing the fact that Kali not only destroys but creates, and has been saying that Kali says the Arachnea must continue to forge this world in her image. Responses have been mixed.

Location: North\Center. West shore of that huge lake.

>>11876

Name: Taetus

Race: Human

Color: Dark green with red trim

Fluff: The Taet are a highly inward focused civilization. They do not trust outsiders at all and rarely work well with anyone not of their race.

They pride themselves as beast tamers and natural builders. Where other nations sought to kill the dangerous beasts that are everywhere in the world the Taet sought to control them. Where others would seek to clear vast swathes of lands and build from scratch the taet would use the land itself to form their homes, turning mountains into fortresses and trees into living homes. There are many legends of people who once used magic to do this but all that seems to be nothing more than stories and now it is done by hand and hard work.

Government Type: oligarchy

Economy Type: Command

Religion: The Taet worship Magla the sentient beast. Magla is said to be able to take the form of any beast and so to kill beasts with no reason is an insult to Magla as you may be killing his avatar by doing so.

Location: Doesnt matter the Taet can live anywhere.

>>11876

Race: Gnome

Color: Purple, grey, or brass are all fine, up to you so we don't have repeating colors

Fluff: Long ago, tribes led by mages and shamans cover this island, fighting for control of its forests and mountains. Finally, as the magic drained from the world, one gnome stood tall(4 feet, to be exact). Allied with a host of stone and metal spirits, Narakoma the First conquered the twin peaks of Mount Asun-Dali, and the tribes that lived there. With his new power, Narakoma began uniting the island tribes, through force and diplomacy. As this great feat wore on, however, his spirit allies dwindled away, along with the rest of magic. But the future Emperor would not be stopped by the loss of his allies. The tribes under him were strong, and commanded most of the vital resources. After twenty long years of war, Narakoma conquered the last stubborn tribe.

Many years have passed since then, so much that many believe Narakoma is just a myth. Our Emperor seeks to remind the people of why his family rules, though only time will tell the outcome of his plans.

Government Type: Meritocracy within the noble class, with the noble children tested in a number of subjects to find the best role for them. The Emperor is both a religious and political leader, seen as the messenger to and from the spirits.

Economy Type: Mixed Economic system

Religion: All things have a spirit, from the smallest pebble to the mightiest tree. These spirits must be respected and kept happy, so that they will multiply and allow us to use them. Ancestors' spirits are also still among us, helping guide our people through these tough times.

War culture - Military buildings give culture

Infighting - Battle rolls of 1 will be counted as negatives and low rolls involving the military could cause units to fight between themselves. Good for gaining experience though.

NERDS - Why research when you can be fighting? Situational penalty to research.

Actions [farms, recruiting, expansion]

—

1. The Mericon elites notice that the food supply is not very good, and so they command several military sections to begin the search for food or seed. If the foraging effort fails, serf-slaves and serf-peons have begun working on typically Mericon-style farming structures of reasonable size. [build farms]

2. The local Mericon arch-purifier has begin drilling the first few Mericon recruits. These recruits, raw and fiery, are anxious for combat and war. They know the enemy is out there, and this quite enough to get them agitated. The purifier feels confident about this first group. [recruit units]

3. A few Mericon outriders have begun to expand the territory held by the boil. They execute a search pattern, clearing the area of anything of value or threat. [Expansion; unspecified direction]

—

Research [Polearms]

–

4. The Mericon immediately set to work making crude weapons out of anything they can find. Sticks are favored: they can be easily filed down into spears. The Mericon prefer them, as it allows even a mediocre force of such creatures to engage heavily armored opponents. It is commonly deployed and heavily favored for a reason.

Rolled 29, 91, 79, 29 = 228 (4d100)

Race: Gnome

Color: Purple, grey, or brass are all fine, up to you so we don't have repeating colors

Fluff: Long ago, tribes led by mages and shamans cover this island, fighting for control of its forests and mountains. Finally, as the magic drained from the world, one gnome stood tall(4 feet, to be exact). Allied with a host of stone and metal spirits, Narakoma the First conquered the twin peaks of Mount Asun-Dali, and the tribes that lived there. With his new power, Narakoma began uniting the island tribes, through force and diplomacy. As this great feat wore on, however, his spirit allies dwindled away, along with the rest of magic. But the future Emperor would not be stopped by the loss of his allies. The tribes under him were strong, and commanded most of the vital resources. After twenty long years of war, Narakoma conquered the last stubborn tribe.

Many years have passed since then, so much that many believe Narakoma is just a myth. Our Emperor seeks to remind the people of why his family rules, though only time will tell the outcome of his plans.

Government Type: Meritocracy within the noble class, with the noble children tested in a number of subjects to find the best role for them. The Emperor is both a religious and political leader, seen as the messenger to and from the spirits.

Economy Type: Mixed Economic system

Religion: All things have a spirit, from the smallest pebble to the mightiest tree. These spirits must be respected and kept happy, so that they will multiply and allow us to use them. Ancestors' spirits are also still among us, helping guide our people through these tough times.

>Actions

1. The Emperor examines the troops assembled for the yearly review, and notices a major problem in the empire's military. The officers and nobles are clad in plate, but the common infantry has no true armor. Men are sent out into the hills in search of ore, to better arm and protect the military.

>look for iron/bronze

2. The nobles of the empire grumble about the idea that the peasant soldiers will soon be outfitted in metal armor, a status symbol within the noble class. The Emperor, in his everlasting genius, states that the nobles will be given new beasts to ride into battle

>look for war mounts, preferably flying

3. The peasants appear too thin to the Emperor, and, in his everlasting genius, he decrees that they should farm more land, so as to provide more food.

>try to produce more food

Once the ore is refined into metal, we will need a way to provide armor to the masses. Thus, the armorers are set to work crafting pieces of armor that are standardized and cheap to manufacture.

1. The Oracle Society has long since survived the apocalypse. Although fringed, our group has begun to rebuild itself. Bohdan Reicher, leader of Oracle, is somewhat paranoid of the many threats to society. He suggests an underground bunker be built to protect from any attacks on the compound. [Build Defense: Underground Bunker]

2. Food is in short supply, and our numbers are surely soon to rise exponentially. An initiative to build a farmi is created. [Build [Farms] for [Food] and [Oracle Grass]]

3. Our population is rising in numbers, and we are likely to become crowded in what little space we have. More land would also allow for a greater number of structures as well as shelters for the coming end of days. [Can't currently see map.

1. [Build farming estates] The Nobility, hungering for a chance to expand their wealth and power, petition the king for sizable land rights for a substantial payment in coin and presumably loyal manpower. These farms are set up to produce grain, wheat, barley, and rye.

2. [Institute a Military Reform regarding Mobilization] With our rivals, the Vennish, to the west having reformed their government the Phoenix Court fears that there is a potential for them to try to muscle Laell out of the river Immer which is shared by the two nations. Naturally both the nobility and the bureaucracy fear the interruption of trade and industry situated along the river.

3. [Expand the borders] Several nobles and merchantmen have come to the Phoenix Court to ask the bureaucracy for a charter to head south toward the Pale Forest.

4. [Research improved industrial tools] Our nation's industry is primarily water powered, but both windmill and waterwheels are inefficient in their current construction. Some in the bureaucracy feel they can be further improved upon in design.

5. [Exploration] The Phoenix King has a love for exploration and adventure. Inspired by earlier works of Laellese fiction he sets out with a company of royal guard to explore the lesser known parts of his domain.

>>11972

Name: Valhallans

Race: 8ft Tall Winged Men

Color: White

Fluff: They stand a full three heads above normal man, with wings that stretch as far, and sinewy muscles as strong as the flesh of trees. A Warrior race at heart, their true origins are forgotten to them, told only in legend and story.

Their bodies superior in every way, the strength of oxen, the heart of a horse, and the endurance of 10 men. Their very bone structure is formed of a superior calcium composite and molecular structure making it stronger and lighter than normal bone, even the very cells of their tissue are made to store huge amounts of fat and energy, allowing them to fly for hours, sometimes days even in thick steel armor.

Believing themselves to be the greatest warriors reincarnated after their death in battle, they see their life as a reward from their god. In their eyes, there are only three classes of any living being on the planet. Warriors and servants and enemies.

Warriors comprise all the males of the society, including the Warlords who lead the nation, and any allies fit to fight alongside in battle, who have shown their ability to wage war and devastate their enemies. Men of craft are included in here, blacksmiths, weaponsmakers, and armorers, so long as they fight.

Servants are all non-warriors. Soft women who cannot fight and remain in the home to cook, clean, and birth sons stronger than them. Slaves and vassals who must submit themselves to the orders of the Warriors. And animals and beasts to be eaten and used in the field or in battle.

Enemies is very simple. Anyone and everyone who does not fall in line with the first two.

Their society is built around raiding, pillaging, and taking pleasure of the spoils of battle from slaves, to gold, to feasts. They value powerful weapons from bludgeoning tools, giant blades, long axes, and the strongest bows and crossbows, and often when lacking gold or silver, weapons serve as an form of Psudo-currency. The finest swords or biggest crossbows can be worth their weight in gold.

Government Type: Warlords

Economy Type: Bullion economy / Autarkic

Religion: The Wargod's Test - The Valhallan's believe that this world is the afterlife, one of many. Each of them died a warrior in a past life, and ended up here for a chance at glory.

Legend says that if the Valhallans and their allies conquer this world, the Wargod himself will descend from the Sky, and grant them true immortality to wage the great war of the gods.

Name: Selgani Tribes

Race: Human

Color: Green

Fluff: The Selgani people have roams the plains for generations. Since the cataclysm claim and swallowed the great cities and high lords. Indeed they too were once of the cities, vain and proud, and only barely escaped their fate because of the visions of clan of seers, the Selgan, their namesakes.

The people heeding the words of the seers, and their esoteric gods, fled the cities, a trickle by the cities' estimate but massive by any numbers of today. Soon after the cataclysms came and swallowed everything up, destroying man, elf and others, as well as their works. The Selgani fell on harsh times afterwards, in a cold world devoid of empathy, magic or civilization. Still they endured despite losing bits of themselves year by year. In time they adapted to the plains. Now they thrive, hunting and foraging. Their only settlement Gaskan, a testament to what once was, and may yet be again.

Government Type: The chief of Gaskan is the technical ruler of the Selgani. He is the Great Chief. Still they are clannish by nature and each chief wishes to rule and expands the holdings of his clan and kin.

Economy Type: Cooperative and competitive. The Selgani work together to survive, but they also work to one up each other or to usurp valuable resources from each other. Generally a threat will make them drop old grievances to fight together however, and the Great's Chief's word command much weight.

Religion: The seers and medicine men govern the religion of the Selgani. They entreat the spirits of the seasons and the spirits of the lands. They offer sacrifices and read portents. The lead the holy ceremonies on the appropriate days, and name the children when they come of age.

Though the old lords of Venland may have reviled you or given your merchants unfair treatment, rest assured that I will suffer no such injustice in my domain. Already we are in the process of creating new administrative buildings, such as may aid your merchants in protection through our lands.

Name: Selgani Tribes

Race: Human

Color: Green

Fluff: The Selgani people have roams the plains for generations. Since the cataclysm claim and swallowed the great cities and high lords. Indeed they too were once of the cities, vain and proud, and only barely escaped their fate because of the visions of clan of seers, the Selgan, their namesakes.

The people heeding the words of the seers, and their esoteric gods, fled the cities, a trickle by the cities' estimate but massive by any numbers of today. Soon after the cataclysms came and swallowed everything up, destroying man, elf and others, as well as their works. The Selgani fell on harsh times afterwards, in a cold world devoid of empathy, magic or civilization. Still they endured despite losing bits of themselves year by year. In time they adapted to the plains. Now they thrive, hunting and foraging. Their only settlement Gaskan, a testament to what once was, and may yet be again.

Government Type: The chief of Gaskan is the technical ruler of the Selgani. He is the Great Chief. Still they are clannish by nature and each chief wishes to rule and expands the holdings of his clan and kin.

Economy Type: Cooperative and competitive. The Selgani work together to survive, but they also work to one up each other or to usurp valuable resources from each other. Generally a threat will make them drop old grievances to fight together however, and the Great's Chief's word command much weight.

Religion: The seers and medicine men govern the religion of the Selgani. They entreat the spirits of the seasons and the spirits of the lands. They offer sacrifices and read portents. The lead the holy ceremonies on the appropriate days, and name the children when they come of age.

Location: Anywhere where there are lots of plains and herds of animals.

Actions [farms2, recruiting2, expansion2]

1. The drivers are pig headed and continue to compel the serfs to farm – failure to secure basic food stocks means their death. With that the case, they become motivated and methods are soon deployed: anything that can seed is located, birds are caught, and the entirety of the mountain range is pillaged for food as work on the farm begins to start again. [Continue farms - Current 1/3]

2. The purifier personally appears to the recruits, again. The constant fighting has sent him into a rage and he personally tears the wings off several of the more unruly recruits and their commanders. Hopefully this example will increase the effectiveness of unit recruitment – this is fairly par the course for him, frankly. [recruit units]

3. The expansion rolls forward as the serf-slaves and serf-peons continue to secure new territories in the south. It seems to be coming along – but we'll see if it seems to go anywhere. [Expansion to the south continues]

Name: The Burning Empire

Race: Devilion

Color: Black with a red star

Fluff: Supposedly descended from Demons long ago, the Devilion race were famed for the magic inherited from their lineage, they based their entire society on it. When the fall happened their society was devestated, chaos reigned and civil war broke out. Eventually everything settled and the Burning Empire was formed from the ashes. Clawing their way back up to their former glory, one bloody inch at a time. Now their society is based on power and conquest, if you can kill for it then it is yours by right of conquest. It is believed that their goddess inhabits the souls of those who become Empress, until the goddess gets bored and chooses a new vessel that then kills the old vessel. With this the cycle of conquest continues and the Empire grows stronger having culled the weak and sick.

Government Type: Matriarchal Imperial Dictatorship based on strength and a "keep what you kill" style of government

Economy Type: A gem based economy, the lands around The Burning Empire is rich in jewels from the magic of a long forgotten era, various jewels have different values.

Well, that's a bit of a setback. There's fantasy materials though, right? Uberhard wood or monsters?

Race: Gnome

Color: Purple, grey, or brass are all fine, up to you so we don't have repeating colors

Fluff: Long ago, tribes led by mages and shamans cover this island, fighting for control of its forests and mountains. Finally, as the magic drained from the world, one gnome stood tall(4 feet, to be exact). Allied with a host of stone and metal spirits, Narakoma the First conquered the twin peaks of Mount Asun-Dali, and the tribes that lived there. With his new power, Narakoma began uniting the island tribes, through force and diplomacy. As this great feat wore on, however, his spirit allies dwindled away, along with the rest of magic. But the future Emperor would not be stopped by the loss of his allies. The tribes under him were strong, and commanded most of the vital resources. After twenty long years of war, Narakoma conquered the last stubborn tribe.

Many years have passed since then, so much that many believe Narakoma is just a myth. Our Emperor seeks to remind the people of why his family rules, though only time will tell the outcome of his plans.

Government Type: Meritocracy within the noble class, with the noble children tested in a number of subjects to find the best role for them. The Emperor is both a religious and political leader, seen as the messenger to and from the spirits.

Economy Type: Mixed Economic system

Religion: All things have a spirit, from the smallest pebble to the mightiest tree. These spirits must be respected and kept happy, so that they will multiply and allow us to use them. Ancestors' spirits are also still among us, helping guide our people through these tough times.

1. The nobles are set upon the pursuit of new mounts, and demand that the wild runnerbirds be captured and trained for riding

2. The common people praise the Great Emperor for his wisdom and thoughfulness to their struggles, and return to the building of the farms with a renewed vigor.

3. With the idea that metal armor would be too laborious to build on a mass scale still fresh in the minds of the army, a young man asks an audience with the Emperor. In his wisdom, the Emperor grants the man's wish. Bowing to his Emperor, his eyes never rising above waist height of the Emperor, the man describes his idea. A shoal of Kraken have taken up residence near his home town, and notes that one of their tentacles washed up on the beach. A local man took a large amount of the skin to his tannery shop, and notes that the leather made from it is extremely resistant to cuts. The man, named Shintu, says that, with the help of the Emperor's troops, they would be able to harvest tentacles from the kraken and retreat to the shore to let the kraken regrow and regenerate.

4 Research, Fortification 4/10. Better ways to help our archers and defenders to knock down invaders from our walls.

5 Random Event.

You forgot to give me my update on my action from a few turns ago. I guess it's militia tech or something? I don't know it establishes a national militia.

1. [Build farming estates] Work on the farm estates continues.

2. [Build Weapons industry] Set up an arms production industry in Orlais - the capitol city of Laell.

3. [Expansion] There is desire to construct new settlements along the riverside to the east. Freemen go to the bureaucracy for permission and some starting loans to set up a new settlement.

4. [Research improved industrial tools] Our nation's industry is primarily water powered, but both windmill and waterwheels are inefficient in their current construction. Some in the bureaucracy feel they can be further improved upon in design.

5. [Bureaucracy/Commerce] Several prominent members of the Bureaucracy have come out in favor of new laws governing the use of of a standard weight in transactions.

Name: The Burning Empire

Race: Devilion

Color: Black with a red star

Fluff: Supposedly descended from Demons long ago, the Devilion race were famed for the magic inherited from their lineage, they based their entire society on it. When the fall happened their society was devestated, chaos reigned and civil war broke out. Eventually everything settled and the Burning Empire was formed from the ashes. Clawing their way back up to their former glory, one bloody inch at a time. Now their society is based on power and conquest, if you can kill for it then it is yours by right of conquest. It is believed that their goddess inhabits the souls of those who become Empress, until the goddess gets bored and chooses a new vessel that then kills the old vessel. With this the cycle of conquest continues and the Empire grows stronger having culled the weak and sick.

Random Event:

5. Someone has challenged the current queen, claiming to be the current vessel of Relisa, weather she is or isn't remains to be seen, she wouldn't be the first to lie and try to take the Imperial throne through trickery.
