Welcome to the world of Battlelust. In this world we will be taking part in a grand war, with elements of strategy, political intrigue, battle, and romance(If you desire). We join this world during the breakout of a small world war between the Star Alliance, Coldblood Tribes, United Clans, Twilight Empire, and Unholy Aristocracy. This means we'll be seeing various fantasy races and armies going head to head in their various wars as you the players decide the fate of the world with your actions.
What exactly will we be doing in this roleplay? Each player will be creating their own character which they will then control and play as, you can decide for yourself what elements you want to engage with more. The politics, war, etc. There are a lot of paths things can go down and ways for characters to meet up and interaction. As of now there are a limited number of playable races to make things not too overly complicated. Star Alliance(Humans, Dwarves). Coldblood Tribes(Saurians, Kobolds). Unholy Aristocracy(Vampires). United Clans(Orcs, and Goblins). Twilight Empire(Light Elves, and Shadow Elves). These are the main factions that will be at war, on top of being a part of them players have the option to choose to be mercenaries instead.

This world is heavily inspired by worlds such as Warhammer Fantasy, Warcraft, and Lord of the Rings. As for how to decide the outcome of battles I will act as GM and judge how battles should end and what outcomes will happen based on player performance. If the need arises I may seek out other judges to help.
This is a fantasy world which we will be working on together, as the GM I will have the final say in some matters but always feel free to pitch ideas, ask questions, or talk with others about building the world. As of now it is still in the works for basic world setup that I am doing. There will be elements of realism to this, I personally like to study Medieval Military History and I'll try to bring some realistic elements in but it is also a fantasy world. So sometimes the gun will be better sometimes the spell will be, it depends on the context. I don't ask anyone to have well versed knowledge in said history and at any time feel free to ask questions or talk about anything mentioned.
This thread is for chatter, questions, character sheets, and planning for the RP. Do not worry about the stats or resources for units that is a system I think I won't be using in the end. Some aspects are still a WIP.

Religions
Star Pantheon
Allfather Luddvich the Holy Star - Known to those of the Starlands as the Allfather, they believe that the sun itself is Luddvich and that it is his holy body that gives the world warmth and light. He is perhaps the most revered god of the Starlands though Guiding Dagrun does contest that position. It is believed that Luddvich will never wage war with another living thing as he is too pure for it.
Allmother Eleonore the Moonwife - A lesser worshiped member of the Star Pantheon, Eleonore is the wife of Luddvich. She is seen as chaotic and wild with mood swings constantly plaguing her. In the Starlands she represents the sea and its dangers though she is also used as a scapegoat to explain away the anger of women. Suffice to say many women disagree on this.
Guiding Dagrun the Northern Star - While the Allfather is the greatest star to ever live the people of the Starlands also heavily worship Dragrun. Dagrun is the Northern Star that their ancestors followed to end up in the Starlands. He is seen as the guide to destiny.
Magni the Star Warrior - Magni is the champion of the Star Pantheon, he is known as the Star Warrior as such. His constellation is that of a spear, a belt, and a shield. Seldom are they seen at the same time but when they are it is believed to be a good omen in battle. Magni is always at war with Gwynt the Void Lord. Their battles claim other stars and it is said that one day all will either be stars or all will be void.
Aribold the Star Sorcerer - The Star Sorcerer is a recent addition to the Star Pantheon. They believe him to be a wizard that represents wisdom and craft. There is a commonly held belief that Aribold is a young god that is younger than humanity, who is only rarely visible. It is said that Aribold will turn the tide in the war with Gwynt via magic and that it is he who allows mortals to cast spells.
Gwynt the Void Lord - The God of Darkness and the Void in the Great Dark of Space. He is pictured as a king in black with a long cape full of stars that envelopes infinity. With him he carries a massive sword of stars which make a constellation in the night sky.
Gwynevere the Huntress - Ever travelling the stars themselves is the Huntress Gwynevere. She is there pictured with her trusty wolf Siflin. It is her that shows the spirit of travel and always she is guided by the Northern Star.

Ancestor Spirits
Orcish Gods
Ikisha - The Goddess of War. Ikisha is pictured as a supremely muscular woman with a belly who carries an axe and wears mail armor. Ikisha was once a mortal Orc who gained godhood among her people upon her death. It is said that one day she will return to her people and lead them into the greatest war that there ever was into Hell itself.
Grokbor - The God of Fury. Grokbor is an enemy of Ikisha. Originally he was the God of War but she usurped his position in their pantheon. To the Orcs he represents all that is fury and rage. He is impulsive and hateful.

Koombu - The God of Sorrow. Also known as the keeper of the dead, Koombu is a thin and gaunt Orc with a skull painted over his face. It is said Koombu was the first Orc that died, and he was left along. And as such decided he wanted to keep company and created the concept of manifesting among the living.

Wulfrid - The Goddess of Fear. Pictured as a great monster, Wulfrid is a creature of Orcish nightmares. She is the master of dreams and rules the sleeping world. It is Wulfrid who the other Orcish gods primarily war with. In battle Orcs may try to invoke her to send fear into their enemies.
Pinchrip - The Goddess of Pain. Known for her cruelty, Pinchrip is fond of testing the will of mortals through pain. To Orcs no pain means no gain, and that one must endure to get ahead in life.

Goblin Gods
The Light
The Light is all that is bright and good to the Light Elves. It is their believe that the Light is a living thing that gives blessings to those it touches. To them the sun is the greatest manifestation of light and that their most devout of believers go blind trying to take in its beauty during meditation. From the Light the Light Elves draw their magic and contort and manipulate it to their ends. Once it was believed that the Light Emperor ruled over all that the Light touched, as in the entire surface of the world.
The Shadow
To the Shadow Elves there is one cold hard truth, that the Shadow will always exist. As long as there is the Light there will be Shadows. To them the Shadow is not evil, nor is darkness. Instead Light and Shadow are in an everlasting tug of war that will last to the end of time. It is said that the Shadow Elves once ruled over all that was Shadow, all beneath the surface of the world. They seek to make this a reality.
Dragons
Quetzelkowt the Creator - Quetzelkowt is a great feathered Dragon that is the predecessor of the Saurians and Kobolds. They believe that he gave birth to all of life and that the Coldblood Tribes are the closest to his greatness that still live to this day.
Alakakuma the World - Alakakuma is what the Saurians and Kobolds call the world. They view it as being one great Dragon that has held all of existence.

Under the seas at the bottom of the world lives this behemoth of a Dragon which constantly cries for mortals. It has such a deep love for mortals that it cannot stop crying, and so lives in seclusion so that it may not end up destroying all of creation. It resembles a great crocodile.
Kkrikotal the Winds - A great winged creature with a long snout, Kkrikotal is a Wyvern and is the cousin of Dragons. Not a true Dragon, it is not permitted to land so it always soars through the skies. Wind exists because of its flapping wings. Kkrikotal is also the first Oracle and has sacrificed its heart and mind to the Dragons. Magic is also believed to come through Kkrikotal and that all mages owe their power to the will of it.
Kkrikaxru the King of Kings - A slumbering creature, Kkrikaxru lives deep in the jungles beneath the caverns of even the Kobold Tribes. There he sleeps, the mightiest Tyrant to ever live.

Species/Races
Humans - Humans are a common surface walking species. They have a wide array of skin colors, eye colors, and hair colors. It is a common trait of humans for them to have a diverse genetic pool outside of their nobility. Humans can be found around the entire world and have spread to many cultures and founded many civilizations. While not the strongest or most magically attuned, humans do excel with their intelligence. Many inventions of the world were first created by humans. Humans mainly worship one of the various pantheons of gods.
Dwarves - Dwarves are stout, it has to be said. They are shorter than most species and tend to live underground. A Dwarf is strong despite their height and most importantly have a low center of gravity making them hard to knock over. Noted for their love of armor, it is rare for anyone other than a mate to see a Dwarf without their armor. Smithing is second nature to them and for some quite literally runs in their blood. Dwarves mostly worship their ancestors.
Daemonites - Daemonites are not their own species but are instead a race. As a race they are formed when other mortals make pacts with demons, deal with demons, or breed with demons, whatever the source they have demon blood in their veins. This often makes them highly visible and ostracized among their own kind. Humans are the most accepting of Daemonites and have the highest population of them. A Daemonite is naturally attuned to magic though they are also more vulnerable to demonic entities. The term Daemonite is an old one, from when the word Demons was pronounced Daemon.
Light Elves - Light Elves are lithe and are what are most commonly thought of when one does think of Elves. They tend to have darker skin than Shadow Elves and are mostly hairless. With a natural affinity for magic, they make for great Weavers. A Weaver is the Elven term for a mage, as they believe that one weaves the threads of magic. They live mostly in forests and worship light itself as a personified entity.
Shadow Elves - Shadow Elves live mainly underground in the Shadowlands, their collective term for the great caverns they live in. Mostly they survive on various fungus, insects, and flora that they cultivate underground. Their vision is poor in the light but they can see in perfect darkness. With pale or gray skin they often look sick to other species. Shadow Elves worship darkness as a personified entity.
Orcs - One of the larger of the mortal species to be found, Orcs are bulky with a natural affinity for muscular frames. Thick, with tusks, they make for great warriors in battle. Because of this their culture has often involved warfare to some degree. Mainly they live as nomads in clans and migrate from place to place, much to the chagrin of other species. Sometimes they are referred to as a horde by others but this is not quite correct. Orcs like to worship emotions as manifestations of gods and spirits.
Goblins - Lithe and agile, Goblins make for excellent athletes. Their society is most often found underground where they live a xenophobic lifestyle. They prefer to keep to themselves but also are rapid breeders meaning they have a high demand for territory and resources. Goblins mainly worship their own feelings as a personification of their deity.
Saurians - Saurians are considered to be a very ancient species. They were among the first to walk upright and have stories that span what are believed to be millions of years into the past. A Saurian is large, with thick armor-like scales, claws, razor sharp teeth, and long powerful tails. They make for natural hunters and are considered to be less advanced despite their age. This is not entirely true, as they do have their own society and culture they just merely find themselves closer to their primal roots. Saurians typically worship dragons and see them as the originators of all cold blooded life.
Kobolds - Kobolds are short cold blooded creatures that mostly live underground. Despite their size they are highly aggressive and often only get along with Saurians. To the Kobolds other species are lesser for their use of animals as mere labor or tools of war. Kobolds revere animals and see them as wiser than supposedly sapient creatures.
Vampires - Vampires are a relatively new creature, formed through blood magic that went awry. These creatures are not quite undead, but utilize them for everything. Vampires are intelligent and have their own will though they require blood to survive. Cold to the touch, many Vampires are Elves as Elves were the first Vampires. There is a natural corruption brought about by Vampires who seems to have a slight ability to influence others. They are not their own species but are instead a race. Vampires are sensitive to sunlight, silver, and are weak to fire.
Undead - The Undead are mostly lacking in any form of soul or intelligence. They are controlled by Necromancers of one variety or another. Liches are those in high command over the Undead, a Lich is a creature incapable of true death that resurrects itself after being defeated. Those Undead with a will are their commanders and puppeteers. Much of the Badlands is ruled by wandering Undead hordes while other Undead have in secret made pacts with the Vampires to serve alongside them.
Dwarves - Dwarves are stout, it has to be said. They are shorter than most species and tend to live underground. A Dwarf is strong despite their height and most importantly have a low center of gravity making them hard to knock over. Noted for their love of armor, it is rare for anyone other than a mate to see a Dwarf without their armor. Smithing is second nature to them and for some quite literally runs in their blood.

Factions
Twilight Empire - Also known as the Twilight Empire, the Twilight Empire has existed for centuries. Shadow Elves and Light Elves have long held this union as a sacred aspect of the balance between light and dark. Both are ruled by an Emperor who are joined through marriage. Each rules over their respective Empire of the Light Woods and the Shadowlands. Neither can encroach upon the other and they are bound by their union to peace. Originally both empires were happy to stay out of the war but after trespasses into their territories they have decided they've long enough defended their borders. It is time for them to take land, it is time for them to retake their ancestral empire. It is said once that all that was dark belonged to the Shadow Elves and all that was light belonged to the Light Elves. By dredging up these ancient rights they have called for an expansion to retake their ancestral homeland.
Coldblood Tribes - Ruled by no single entity, the Coldblood Tribes are a not quite as organized as other factions. Their leaders disagree quite often but they are still united by blood. For the longest of times they've been content to stay to their lands but the Kobold Chieftains have concocted a plan. By siding with the Saurian Chieftains and working in unison they plan to take over other lands and gain new hunting and breeding grounds. As is both groups struggle to hold enough resources to keep their swelling numbers. To them this war is not about who is right and wrong, it is simply about survival.
United Clans - Once at war with one another, a recent shift has occurred. Those of Orc and Goblin blood have become united by their desire for conquest. Yet some confuse this for hatred when the reality is to the Orcs and Goblins war and strife is simply life. The sorrow, anger, and joy it brings are all aspects of life. Though Orcs and Goblins do have stakes in the land, for the Starlands were once theirs to roam before the arrival of humans. While before the lands were free to be roamed with the Star Alliance now in effect they no longer able to roam, as a threat to their freedom the Clans found this to be enough to join under one banner and bring war upon the Star Alliance.
Unholy Aristocracy - A recent invention of the former Emperor of the Shadowlands, Vampires have only just arrived on the scene. Without a home to call their own, they instead live in secret pulling the strings behind the scenes. Their numbers are hidden and their true threat is not understood, even the fact that the former Shadow Emperor still lives on is a close kept secret. A Vampire naturally corrupts those around them, influencing them in ways still not yet understood. They can come from any species, though Daemonites are known to be immune to Vampire corruption.
Star Alliance - The Star Alliance was formed only recently after the Dwarves and Humans finally put aside their differences. By uniting the kingdoms of both under the Alliance they have strengthened their territories and formed a fully function military the likes of which has never been seen before. Highly advanced scientifically, they bring with them war machines never seen before, as well as support from human nations across the world. Humans are a new creature to the north, a few hundred years ago they arrived on the scene after following the Northern Star. They crossed the Sapphire Sea and conquered all they could making the now named Starlands their own. Early on Dwarves and them became allies only to drift apart as time went on. Now again they are united hoping to conquer and control what lands they feel belong to them.
The Lodge of Mages - The Lodge of Mages has been a lasting part of the north for quite some time. Founded centuries ago by the great Archmage Dalubar the Arcane, this lodge is a collection of all the neutral mages in the north. They focus mainly on themselves and their prospective members, teaching and attempting to expand the wealth of knowledge about magic as a whole. They were established within the Starlands but as of yet have not joined the Star Alliance, choosing instead to stay mostly neutral. On occasion they will step in should a danger be catastrophic enough, otherwise they're fine with playing politics in the midst of courts.
Demons of Hell - In another realm resides Hell, a place of infinite misery and death. Those who draw upon this magic are known as Warlocks. Demons of every variety exist and their masters are what can be considered true evil. At times they will meddle in the lives of mortals for their own desires or mere amusement. The realm of Hell is a place of constant battle for supremacy with a true form of chaos always persisting. None of the Demon Lords are pleasant with one another.
Council of Warlocks - Warlocks are those who tap into the realm of Hell to draw from it for their magical spells. A Warlock must be a Daemonite in some form, having become influenced by Demons in some way. The Council of Warlocks however are considered a force for possible good by those who truly know them. These shadowy figures keep hidden for their own safety, and their true ranks are unknown. The Council seeks to control Demonkind and keep them in check. To this end they summon and bind Demons and wage a personal war against the realm of Hell.
Coldblood Tribes - Ruled by no single entity, the Coldblood Tribes are a not quite as organized as other factions. Their leaders disagree quite often but they are still united by blood. For the longest of times they've been content to stay to their lands but the Kobold Chieftains have concocted a plan.

The Lodge of Mages - The Lodge of Mages has been a lasting part of the north for quite some time. Founded centuries ago by the great Archmage Dalubar the Arcane, this lodge is a collection of all the neutral mages in the north. They focus mainly on themselves and their prospective members, teaching and attempting to expand the wealth of knowledge about magic as a whole. They were established within the Starlands but as of yet have not joined the Star Alliance, choosing instead to stay mostly neutral. On occasion they will step in should a danger be catastrophic enough, otherwise they're fine with playing politics in the midst of courts.
Demons of Hell - In another realm resides Hell, a place of infinite misery and death. Those who draw upon this magic are known as Warlocks. Demons of every variety exist and their masters are what can be considered true evil. At times they will meddle in the lives of mortals for their own desires or mere amusement. The realm of Hell is a place of constant battle for supremacy with a true form of chaos always persisting. None of the Demon Lords are pleasant with one another.
Council of Warlocks - Warlocks are those who tap into the realm of Hell to draw from it for their magical spells. A Warlock must be a Daemonite in some form, having become influenced by Demons in some way. The Council of Warlocks however are considered a force for possible good by those who truly know them. These shadowy figures keep hidden for their own safety, and their true ranks are unknown. The Council seeks to control Demonkind and keep them in check. To this end they summon and bind Demons and wage a personal war against the realm of Hell.

Unfortunately they do not have one leader so he's not quite sure how to properly avenge her as of yet.

His favored weapon is a two handed hammer called Doom with a wide head.

Finally he came to despise his chieftain using him as a political tool, so Zikzikyak challenged and slew him legally.

Shadowkeepers live mostly in isolation and do not get along very well even with other Shadow Elves. Their order was once a secret kept from their greater society until a need came to use them in battle. Shadowkeepers wear light plate and mail armor and wield spears and shields.
