Race: Orks
Race description: Elder Scrolls Type Orks.

Orkish Life is highly reglemented and one serves his entire life in the military. He might be a farmer or a miner but he will work those jobs as part of the Engineering Force.

Leader name: Sapphire Amythestar
Leader backstory: Sapphire was the daughter of the former leader, but was raised by a poor family to prevent her from becoming arrogant. Her true heritage was revealed when she came of age, and trained to succeed her mother from that day until the day of her mothers death.
Race: the Gaeon
Race description: A race of sentient geodes. They have crystalline bodies, usually composed of precious gems. They eat stones and other such things. They function nearly identically to most organic races(biologically)
Culture: The Gaeon have a monarchal government, and are a matriarchal society. They abhor the concept of jewelry. Most Gaeons live a kind if half-ascetic life, with very few possessions but still retaining the ability to do as they please.

Leader name: Oliver Del Serpenset
Leader backstory: The entirely mortal son of the last demigod of his species. Oliver is not particularly strong by any standard, but he is a master of logistics and excels in the performance of administrative duties.
Race: The Blinkers
Race description: This species is light blue in color, and has one large eye. They are a large and strong race with great endurance, however they are also slow moving. They are dangerous in a one on one fight, but fairly easily confused in larger scale battles.
Culture: In ancient times the Blinkers were used for slave labor by both titans and other races. In the fourth era they would grow bolder and turned aggressive against their former masters who had gotten complacent with brute strength and dreadful demigod warriors.

In the modern era, they have changed substantially. The last known demigod of their species chose to martyr herself in the hopes of ending a vicious cycle of violence. This act has caused the Blinkers to adopt a pacifistic lifestyle. They work diligently every day of their own volition to the benefit of all. At least for the time being that is.

Though the Blinkers lack an active military, their contributions make them well liked or at least tolerated among the other races to the point where they are not at much risk of being attacked.

*This massive statue of a blinker has been imbued with the divine power of the final Blinker demigod. A fraction of the resources that the Blinkers produce is sent to all other civilizations within the great wall. This effect does NOT reduce the amount of resources that the Blinkers get from their own work.

Leader name:Teddy Romero
Leader backstory: Teddy's political carrier started in the militia, where his skills as a leader first began to show themselves. He rose through the ranks during a brief conflict, joining the permanent armed forces after finding his niche. There he continued to rise through the ranks, slowly but surely climbing the ladder. During the Ark, the military declared a state of emergency, putting Teddy in charge of the state due to his popularity with the majority of society.
Race: The Patchwork
Race description: The Patchwork started their existence as a simple humanoid race. But long ago they received an amazingly terrible curse (by whose hand, Titan or God, it is not remembered.), causing their flesh to naturally rot slowly even as they live. Naturally, they began to swiftly die out, the Curse performing its gruesome task on the population. The Goddess of Medicine took pity on the race, and while even she was unable to lift the curse put upon them, she was able to grant them a power that meant their salvation. Each and every Patchwork can secrete a powerful thread from their wrists, which they use to keep their body together like a patchwork doll (giving them their current name.). Not only that, but they may add any other organic material to their own forms, grafting the body-parts of animals, donated organs, or even those won on the battlefield in order to replace that which has rotted on themselves, making them an incredibly diverse (if, morbid appearing) race.
Culture: They tend to long clothing that covers up much of their bodies, cloaks, robes, long capes, hoods, and even masks to cover up their bodies when around other races. They are normally peaceful, or perhaps more accurately isolationist, preferring to keep to themselves (at least, before the incident that brought everyone here happened...), but can prove quit a "sleeping giant" if sufficiently angered.

Leader name: Good King Kiet
Leader backstory: Life is hard. People die. The elders said to work harder so that your family would have a better life. The monks said to contemplate so that you escape the world and be better than god and man. For Kiet, bastard son of a bad monk and a farmer's daughter, he just wanted to know why people had to die. Through years of adventure, toil and hardship, he discovered the Path of Ascendance. To be content with life was and accept that one had to just 'try better' was to let the world be wicked and thus sinful. To ignore the suffering of the world and seek escape within the monastery was selfish, and thus sinful. To seek an end to pain on the world and make it into a new heaven was, to Kiet's reasoning, the greatest good anyone could accomplish. And so, a monk's bastard began a grand revolution and became the Good King, who would Ascend all those tired of the world...and ensure those who would make the world suffer would be toppled from their thrones. Of course, then world  decided to go insane and Kiet had to think about how they were going to survive this insanity.As such, the Grand Revolution that Kiet sought, would have to be postponed.
Race: Naga
Race description: Naga refers to the slender snakemen that is the physical endpoint of Ascension, creatures that live for centuries and can endure all forms of hardship. Theoretically, any individual can Ascend if they follow the Path but in practice most converts  are children of other naga.
Culture: The original culture of the Naga was one based on birth, faith, family and cooperation. With the revelation of the Path, many have shaken off the old traditions in favour of a more scholarly lifestyle. This is not to say that everyone is an academic or has secluded themselves in monasteries but that from the lowest farmer to the Good King himself, every being is taught so that they can usher in Paradise on the world itself. In this case, learning is directed towards 'useful' things like getting an edge on the battlefield or getting better at crafts.   This said, the communal attitude of the Naga is still in force, even if lineage and family has lost the importance it once held. While the Naga love using gold in fashion and architecture, actually desiring wealth for the sake of it is harshly discouraged. As part of the Path that Kiet has spread, all Naga have tossed aside any faith they had in the gods and instead favour mortal perfection and in time, both Physical and Spiritual Ascendence.

Leader name Matriarch Gwendolyn Gelrand
Leader Backstory Gwendolyn was raised by a family with a long - standing military tradition, and entered the army at a young age. She quickly became a commander and, after many won battles, when the previous mariarch died, she was elected as the new one by most of the military, and several others. She oversaw the Undarak through the entirety of the fourth era, and hopes to bring her race back to it's former glory. She is a natural leader who often prefers diplomacy to brutal conflict, as a result of her being oddly affected by seeing death. She will not hesitate to pull out her sword if it is required, though.
Race: The Undarak
Race description: a tall humanoid race with long ears. Capable of growing beards. Lives for several thousand years on average.
Race Culture the Undarak live around a sort of "we're all in this together" philosophy, and treat all of their fellow kind with equal respect. This has made Their civilization a democracy, except for the provincars, the former leaders of the seven provinces of Eldrathion. Six of the sven Provincars escaped to Sanctuary, although without provinces to rule. The elected ruler is, traditionally, a female Matriarch, for reasons kept quiet by the Undarak.
Their second philosophy is to accept things as they are.
All Undarak are required to join up with the miliatary at a certain point, due to the lack of Undarak to fill the places normally.
Undarak genarally dislike and distrust demigods, and usually refuse to have anything to do with them.
Due to their long lifespan, Undarak generally are very slow to change. Despite this, the Undarak are very thechnologically advanced, and use a magic based technology. Engineers are very important in Undarak society.

Leader name: Doge Roland II Marteen

Leader backstory: Patriarch of house Marteen, Roland II is a sharp and opportunistic merchant prince. Previously house Marteen was a secondary power, though upon transportation to Sanctuary, the cutthroat politics of Roland II secured his election as Doge. He is a power hungry man, seeking to solidify his family's control over the Aurum Republic, and the economy of Sanctuary.

Race: Humans (someone had to do it )

Race description: The humans of the Aurum Republic are bronze skinned, and fair of feature. Demigod blood flows through the major families, granting them sharp intellect and an affinity for metals. Though the republic is lead by humans, they make up only half of its population.

Culture: The Aural culture is a competitive one, with strict obedience to law and custom. Family prestige is upheld above personal welfare (by the family patriarchs, at least), and those that dishonour their family can be swiftly disowned, or worse.
In general society folk have little loyalty to the head of state, but much so to their patriarch.
There are four surviving families (and any demigods would be of their spheres):
Marteen: The ruling banking family. Generally well respected, it leverages the other families by their debt.
Alligare: The Alligare family is an amalgam of five lesser families that barely survived the Ark and the following chaos. They are divided and weak, but their elected Patriarch is (totally by coincidence) loyal to house Marteen.
Remus:  The militaristic Remus family is the Republic's muscle. They are loyal to the state before the Doge.
Argentine: The previous ruling family, their control was of airship building. Their mighty navy was almost completely lost to the Others, the final few were left behind when the Republic was transported in the Arc.

Just to get this out there:
Special character: Chimera (20). Normally, Patchwork keep themselves in a functional state, in that they like to keep a form that lets them go about their everyday lives. Chimeras are Patchwork who have had far too many extra bits attached, leaving them gargantuan masses of flesh and body-parts hardly recognizable as what it once was. They can't feed themselves and have essentially given up their humanity (a process that is incredibly difficult to reverse), spending most their days being feed in a specially made stable. In return, they are capable of dealing and (especially) taking massive amounts of damage, making them virtually a tank on the battlefield.

Special building: Chopshop (50). A building that houses "extra" bodyparts along with skilled medical experts, allowing them to quickly and effectively repair damaged tissue to the point injured troops can be sent back to the battlefield, miraculously even those near-death before hand. For every two (?) units of one type that are destroyed, a new unit is created of the same type.

Helooooooooooooo?...

[Roboson]

I'm still around, and have been working on the IC. My last two days just randomly became super busy.

[Roboson]

So I'm not finished with the map, but I wanted to go ahead and get the ball rolling on the game itself. This first turn will serve as an in game Q&A as well as a way for the leaders to meet and discuss how to govern the new world. From this point on players will typically have race specific issues that need addressing as well as community things.

Are races still being accepted?

[Roboson]

For now there is a waitlist.

[Supernerd]

How often is this game supposed to update? I'm a bit worried about the total lack of any signs of life from the GM.

[crazyabe]

I Think the GM is on Break already, Specially since they haven't been on since the 19th.

[Edmus]

Big games are a lot to take on. It is easy to underestimate them and then get hit by a towering stack of unexpected stress.
No ill will from me toward the GM if he walks.
