There will be only a few things you need to know and that I will tell 1. I am a guy 2. why are you interested in who I am? 3. it can be very easy to make a friendship but you need to learn how to handle someone with Asperger a spectrum of autism plus several mental issues. 4. and also I am a bit of a quiet guy sometimes Specialy after a while but if you manage to catch my attention I can be very close and talkative sometimes.
Oa’qeisskesi walked through the plains northeast, sighing along the way before taking a stop. Sitting on a rock in the middle of the grasslands she looked around. This area of the continent was rather calm, at least thinking for a moment she heard the black sun say “So… we met a crazy blood deity. Who after seeing us make an abyssal pool just went completely off her mind i guess being paranoid helps sometimes… not counting also the stuff we see in the distance while hiding.” Oa shook her head saying “You forgot Ashvelen…” “What is up with her?” he replied back “She is… kinder…” Oa said crossing her arms thinking about her he seemed to remain quiet while he wasn't manifested in a form she could see. He was talking in her head; it was a feeling she wasn't much accustomed to even after what felt like eons. He then said after a moment of silence “well… she seems like an outlier.” “everyone seems like that…” Oa said under her breath hiding from him he then said “well… we nearly could have ended up in that crazy woman dungeon or died.” Oa rolled her eyes saying “she is extremely volatile emotionally. I wouldn't say she is crazy, just unstable.” “So be it… but what happens if we meet someone with more ill intentions?” He asked Oa, thinking about the possibility.
After a moment of thinking the winds were feeling chilly through the gaps in her helmet she then said “Not much that we can do… except if we…” she looked to the side thinking before saying “I have an idea” “Oh i see it… good… also i think that can be useful in our problems.” He replied after a short moment to Oa feeling conflicted again before sighing and saying “Let us do this…” Holding her hand she quickly slid her hand into her chest as it seemed to meld into it bringing a piece of black stone from within her looking for a flat surface. She looked at the boulder with a gesture of her hand. She cut it in half, throwing it to the side. Putting the black lump on it she cut her hands and started pouring power from the abyss into the flat rock where the lump stood as it absorbed the abyssal energy. After a moment she sighed with some worry, since forging wasn't something she was used to but definitely was complicated even if she used her powers to speed up the process.
She punched the lump as the sound of metal echoed, turning it somewhat into more solid forms; after it she used her powers together with some brute force to continue forging through the day. The material slowly took shape turning into a series of dark metallic scales and lumps of metal also stuck to them. Oa breathed heavily before grabbing the material she then said “time for the final part.” Imbuing much more power into it she soon the scales seemed to melt again into a liquid running into her skin. They formed a pattern akin to a tattoo primitive and esoteric around her body and skin, her armor falling off leaving her exposed as the tattoo went to her hair she stopped concentrating. Looking down she then concentrated as the ink suddenly jumped from her skin forming a plated armor around her body, chest, shoulders, legs. The scales meanwhile took form in her arms belly, legs mixing with the plated to form a combination of both. Looking at herself she then moved her arms. It was flexible and useful with a gesture the scaled armor seemed to rise and lower to allow for maneuverability or absorption. Giving a nod the armor seemed liquid before returning to being a series of tattoos around her body looking at her now naked self she groaned before the armor returned “can be ink in my skin when I don't need it but I never bothered much with clothes… i will just ma-” “Why don't you take it?” She heard the sun interrupt. Taking a look north she saw a city with a castle in the distance she soon moved forward the winds were silent before screams could be heard.
The city burned and the castle soon began to collapse as ashes began to settle in a now silent city Oa walked through the former residency of an oligarchy. Taking a look she grabbed some clothes that seemed interesting she then said “consider it temporary until i find something better… i will probably be using the armor more…” The sun was in front of her glowing in a dark mood “well it was good for us all to feast more and to feed our…” “Addiction…” She whispered he then replied almost with a sigh. “I wouldnt call our need for that... using that word...” Oa stared to the side where the sun stood. “let us move on” She replied soon, leaving the castle walking down the hall of dead defenders. Looking around she insulated, somewhat her thoughts, preferring to be alone at the moment walking through the city she saw many corpses as houses burned in the background stopping for a moment. She saw a mother and her daughter while there was no damage in their bodies; their souls being drained seemed to leave them as limp bodies in a street filled with them approaching Oa closed both their eyes taking a step back to see them both she took a deep breath closing her own eyes before moving away. Taking a look again at her armor raising her hands the scales and gauntlet was beautiful in design as she left through the gatehouse she said to herself. “...Burden”
Oa’qeisskesi creates the artifact ‘burden’ a armor to protect herself in case of fighting with beings with powers of gods. At the same time she debates with the blacksun about the gods of the world after which she burns a city and moves on in doubt that still perseveres.
5mp/5ap 5mp used to make burden an artifact and armor for herself used for protection crafted from abyssal materials. (couldn't find a good image but thank you vec for helping.)
Oa’qeisskesi marched through the blood myre, looking around constantly in the strange environment. Her face seemed to show barely any emotion, while within, she was rather curious. It was the first truly different environment she had come across since leaving the Umbral woods and even then, the area had some similarity. “What… an interesting place.” she mumbled, stopping to see strange animals running past.
Standing still now, the black sun within her said, “... This place doesn't scream habitable for sapient life.” Oa gave a nod, moving forward in the myre. The terrain would be difficult for a person to traverse but not for a deity, especially Oa, who seemed interested in the distant mountain range as she got closer towards it in the thick haze no mortal would have been able to see through. Stopping again for a moment she sighed.
“Our birth place is close…” She said, feeling a bit nostalgic even if for her, it wasn't that long.
The sun replied. “Yes it is… just walk north of the mountains.” The sudden sound of cracking, like stones being broken, could be heard and the sun soon said. “The ground is about to give into the cave system below, isn't it?”
“Yes.” Oa said not sounding very excited or even emotional.
“... And you wanna check what’s below?” The sun asked.
Oa immediately replied. “Yeah, pretty much.”
“Ah great…” he replied as the soil and blood began to swirl at their feet, with a sucking sound. Then the land around them gave way and they fell into the dark. Oa slide through the tunnel, carried by a mix of bloody mud. Moving through the cave, her posture remained the same and upon passing close to a wall she struck it with a mighty punch, making it crack. For a split second she could feel the entire cave system via the vibrations. As the map formed in her head like lightning, she soon realized something before the energy dissipated- A big opening lay not so far ahead.
Fixing her eyes, she quickly adjusted as time continued moving and she slid, breaking through a small opening. As she moved, she looked down at a small stream of blood from the surface, which seemed to drag her. She shrugged, if it worked for her it was good. As the area got closer she slid off the edge of the cave, looking around as she stood in the air for a second. It was quite a big opening leading down to something below, and that something looked like a castle. Standing tall and imperious, bathed in white like ivory and surrounded by a sea of dark crimson.
“Oh… so that was what my senses were telling me.” She said to herself, beginning to fall quite quickly into the structure below.
She landed with a triumphant crash upon the cobbled stone of white, shattering it like lightning and leaving a small crater. No sooner had she left the crater, a white liquid seeped forth at the bottom, filled it up the brim and all of the jagged cracks, before hardening into stone. It was as if she hadn’t damaged it at all. A stillness hung all around in that twilight place where shadows coalesced. The only light came by pale lanterns suspended from arches and light poles that lined the path towards the tall keep before her.
Oa moved forward on that path, seemingly unphased at the strange situation. She gave only a light nod to her surroundings, while her eyes kept a lookout for anything out of the ordinary or unusual. Lining the path, set between the arches and light poles was a myriad of pale bushes, carrying upon them white roses in full bloom. There was a light scent, an aroma of rich iron- blood that permeated the area. It hung in the air, much like in the Myre up above. Pale trees and obscured windows began to line the street until the great doors of the castle loomed above.
Upon entering, Oa was met with a grand statue off to her right. It depicted a female figure, beautiful and eternal, sheets of fabric interwoven around her torso, fluttering in some unseen breeze behind her. One of her arms was outstretched towards the front of the room where another door lay, her other clutched at her chest. Beneath the woman, making up the pedestal, there lay a slain beast. A dragon. Its head contorted at an odd angle, indicating it had been brutally snapped.
Off to her left another statue was carved, this one depicting the same woman, wearing a regal looking dress and a crown upon her head. She held one hand at her side and the other also pointed towards the front of the room. The base of this statue depicted strewn bodies, all covered in fur with primal faces. The face on the statue was indifferent but the carnage underneath contrasted such an image.
At the front of the room the door beckoned and through it lay a small throne room. Sitting upon a throne of Ivory, illuminated by pale lights hovering in the air, sat the same woman. She was covered in small pale moths and would have appeared motionless if not for their small wings flapping. As Oa entered the moths took flight in silent chorus, disappearing in all directions. The woman wore a simple dress, hands folded in her lap as a red ribbon covered her eyes.
"I know of you," she began in a quiet voice, "Why have you come here, to this place?" She asked with an air of coolness.
Standing still Oa kept her usual emotionless stare without much of a face twitch but in body movement she seemed ready for anything that might come, she then said “Ai naho hasa’cousa isu yhe ras… Esnotaro tisasi isa acesisseielarah."
The woman frowned. "Are your words meant for me or for yourself? I don't understand such a tongue."
Oa seemed to groan, her eyes closed, the groan turning into a sigh. She then said, “‘Twas fur ye. Bit it seems lik’ few blether mag laid.”
“I can’t imagine anyone would want to converse in such a malignant tongue.” She said absentmindedly, her posture never wavering. “I ask again, why have you deigned to come here? Patron of the Dark Spring.”
Oa felt a bit offended by her claim before saying, “What a good way to talk with guests… Well I fell down here, didn't know you were even here, I was just passing by.”
“Guests are invited.” The woman corrected, “But this chance meeting might be of some use yet. I am Wyn. I know of you and what you have corrupted with your touch but not your name. What is it?”
Oa kept an eye on her, curiosity on her lowering her defensive stance. She then said, “First… how do you even know about me?” she crossed her arms.
“I have eyes and ears everywhere.” She simply put. “And I think I am able to connect the dots. A God destroyed the northwest and most recently, a God went on a rampage in the east. You fit the description.”
Oa gave a nod before saying, “Makes sense…” Oa thought. Looking to the side thinking of the situation, whispers could be heard in the room fading as quickly. She then said, “Oa’qeisskesi is what they call me. Wyn.”
“Oa’qeisskesi.” She repeated, mulling the word over. “You remind me of a God I once knew of. It knew only its own desires, wishing to spread poison and corruption, caring little for anything else but its own wills. In the end, such a God could not be allowed to exist in that budding world. What purpose did any have for one who only sought to spread cancer across the realm? So, it was destroyed. Murdered. Forgotten by all, save a few.” She paused, a small smile spreading across her lips. “I do wonder how your story will end. Cause enough wanton destruction and they will come for you. Or she will. Make no mistake about that, dear Oa’qeisskesi. It would be such a shame.” She shook her head slightly.
Oa kept staring, her red eyes seemed to fluctuate a little as she fixed her vision. She then said,“Thank you for the warning...” Standing for a moment of silence she then said, “I guess the thing that separates me from the god you talk about is that I do not take pleasure in what I do.”
This seemed to pique Wyn’s interest. With a raised eyebrow she asked, “Is that so? Then why do it? Is it a sense of duty that compels you? Or madness, perhaps?”
Turning her head, Oa looked to the side like she was in deep thought. While the vision of a god could not be escaped, for Oa it was a bit different. For her power let her notice the eyes in her shadow within the darkness and the sun. Watching the situation, standing beside her with a light nod and a sigh, she then said, “How far would you go to help those you love?”
“Ah love… There are many kinds of love. Intimate. Obsessive. Selfless. Selfish. Passionate. Lustful. So on and so forth.” Wyn mused. “As for your question; I have only ever loved one being and I would do anything in my power to protect their interests. Even if it meant they would hate me.” Her voice held a note of bitterness, before she tilted her head at Oa. “You understand, don’t you?”
Oa just kept her usual stare that seemed rather blank and even emotionless for a person seeing her. She then gave a light nod after a second of silence.
“I thought so.” Wyn gave a rare smile and rose from her throne. “You and I are alike, in more ways than one. It may not look like it from such superficial appearances.” She began to walk down the steps. “You love. You care. You don’t take pleasure in what happens when you lose control. You have secrets. We all do, no shame in it.” Wyn came to a stop just out of arm's reach from the Abyssal Goddess, not that that mattered. “Oa, I can call you Oa, right? Tell me…” her voice dropped to a sweet whisper, “What is it you truly desire?”
Oa looked down on Wyn, crossing her arms. She then said, “That is a bit private… and…” her eyes flashed to the side and to the other side of the room. The light seemed to dim for a moment before she said, “Without wanting to sound offensive but… You seem a bit shady at the moment.”
There was a moment of stillness in that room. It subsumed everything else, as the two Goddesses faced one another with impassive stares, like mirrors in the dark. Then Wyn’s lips parted to reveal a toothy smile. Then a change occurred behind Wyn, her ivory throne began to darken, the white consumed by black. “Do I seem shady to you?” Wyn said with a laugh. Nothing about her voice was the same, the arrogance, the imperious tone, the regality- Was all gone, replaced with a sinister undertone and flushed with mocking emotion. “It is offensive! It is rude! You should be ashamed of yourself!” Another laugh escaped her and her hands rested on her hips. “Such a foolish little goddess. Tell you what! I am merciful. I’ll forgive you if you get on your knees and prostrate before me.”
Oa kept her usual stare until her usual emotionless stare with barely any movement ended with an eyebrow raised as she said, “Huh…” Her eyes moved quickly up to see something and down, as she eyed the throne. She then said, “That is interesting…” She stroked her chin before returning to her normal stance, taking a deep breath. She then said, “So… This is how you act in the face of a doubt, deity of blood.” Oa started moving around her circling like a shark in the water smelling blood and she continued talking, “Isolated and shadowed in an empty throne. Alone in the dark, makes me wonder.”
Wyn never never followed her movement, instead just staring ahead. “Whatever is to be doubted?” She asked. “My better selves like to keep me locked out. I can’t control me, you see. They are smart, unlike you. You… A true monster in the eyes of all. I doubt you truly even know what love is.” She snickered. “How could you? You are disgusting, an abomination in this world.” She could hardly contain her laughter after this, covering her mouth with a hand. “Sorry, sorry, I’m channeling too much of Ivory. She’s always so pretentious. A real stick in the mud.” She grew quiet at once, a low growl escaping her mouth. “Why do you circle me, Oa? Don’t you have any idea how enticing that is…?”
Stopping Oa after hearing her standing behind Wyn Oa then said after a moment of silence “Well I guess this is the first time I’ve met a god with multi personality disorder.”
Wyn turned to her, expression full of exuberance. “I wouldn’t call it that. I am me, Wyn but I am also Ebony. There are no different memories here, no grandiose forgetfulness. I remember everything I do, even when I’m not here. It makes it all the better when I know how much I despise myself because of these dreadful mood swings.” She stifled a giggle. “Usually I am not this chatty. Usually something else comes out when I do. But not this time, no, you see… This is the first time I’ve gotten to talk to a fellow divine. One as monstrous as me. But that’s not really true now that I’ve heard you. You don’t sound like a monster. Which is quite unfortunate. To not take pleasure in it, the thrill of a hunt as prey is ripped open and defiled, oh… How tragic.” She fawned.
Oa sighed, crossing her arms in a pensive stance, saying “You are the second god I’ve ever met since I came into this world and now this…” She kept thinking about being called a monster as she opened her eyes, staring. She then said, “So you take pleasure in that… Hmmm… You and they would get along easily, albeit I do disagree with their means.” The illumination of the room seemed to dim before returning to normal, Oa seemed to lightly groan at it.
“You are hiding something.” Wyn accused. “Who is it you speak of, this ‘they’? Why do you keep glancing across the room? Why do you groan as if hurt?” She asked in quick succession before laughing, “Amazing what one can view when everything is made of blood. The walls, the floors, the ceiling, the pillars… So on and so forth. What a gift it is to be blind. All those little sighs of yours, the way you cross your arms. You’re no fun but I suppose this is what can be expected from a God, can it not? Such hardy prey.” She licked her lips.
“You would not want to know and even if you insist I don't think I will tell you.” She said, glancing at her own shadow before glancing forward. Wyn, following her look, soon seemed to notice a thousand eyes staring at her from Oa’s shadow but with a blink they seemed to not be there anymore.
Wyn sighed with a pout, “Must you be so difficult?” Another growl escaped her throat, deep and guttural. “This conversation is boring and you are quite dull, no offense.” She mocked with a large smile. “If you can’t give me good conversation, then what can you give me?” She asked.
“I am not much of a merchant like Ash and her shadows… So I guess unless you want a favor from me or something destroyed just ask.” Oa said, beginning to inspect her hand. It seemed rather strange until she pierced her hand with her thumbnail and a pool of black tar began to flow off her hand, onto the floor. It wasn't blood for Wyn, rather it seemed like something else. Oa seemed to turn her face to her still with the same expression and said “Don't bother I am fine…”
This visibly seemed to upset Wyn and she began to shake. “How dare you…” She muttered, “How dare you mention that bitch’s name in my presence and to have the audacity to let your corruption leak and degrade my sacred hall… How dare you!” She snarled. Almost instantly the floor where the tar spilled gave way to a dark nothingness, threatening to swallow Oa up in it.
Oa looked below, still rather in an unimpressed mood. She then said, “I might not look worried… but you are worrying me… you have a lot of temper tantrums you know.” Oa continued as the oily substance continued to leak from her hand.
Wyn stared at her with an enraged expression that quickly became a smile. She stood still and said nothing else. The hole expanded abruptly and then filled with a dark crimson liquid underneath Oa. Thousands of bloody hands erupted from the crimson, going for the Abyssal god.
As the hands approached Oa sighed, saying, “Note to self, watch out for the solitary blood goddess… Well I’ll see you around.” As the hands approached, Oa said with a sigh, “Well take me away boys.” The lights in the room seemed to extinguish as darkness engulfed the area completely. Soon rekindled, back into light, Wyn noticed Oa was gone and the pond beneath where she stood, even if it was just a stain, quickly evaporated into nothing.
Being dragged through the dark water Oa emerged in a pond she casted in the plains before entering the Bloodmire, emerging with tar covering her; She shook her body free of it, leaving her body to fall on the ground and into the pool she sighed saying. “Well… I guess I will check back on her, when she is more calm.” cleaning herself.
Oa travels about and goes into the Bloodmire where she falls down a hole and then ends up sliding down in the realm of Wyn. She journeys up the castle grounds until she reaches the throne room where Wyn sits, covered in moths. As they fly away they have a conversation and Wyn ends up having a mood swing, where things get a little dicey but it ends with the two Goddesses, thoroughly apart from one another. No violence was shed.
A king read reports that the Tai-lan kingdom to the south had suddenly disappeared, towns in ruins and refugees talking of a monster. Grabbing another letter written the same worrying report, kingdoms are falling left and right quite quickly towards a being described only as a force instead of a monster he sighed, cleaning his tired eyes, their color was brown, his hair was gray long past his prime age as brinkles was in his face he rose up from his chair saying “my daughter is safe?” A guard gave a nod saying “taken to the east to your brother sir” looking at a larger map of the region the path of destruction was carved through several other kingdoms and he was now on the way of what was causing this cataclysm looking over the horizon to the south it seemed rather calm the weather the sun was up and no clouds were in the sky but the city below had a extremely ready garrison together with the outside having horseman patrols trying to locate who or what was doing this.
Overlooking the defences, the king gave a nod, before walking away, sitting in the throne he remembered of his family, his daughter was safe at least that his wife would be happy about. Looking over the wall, before dropping his eyes down he soon noticed a scout running towards him. She soon kneeled. “Sir i bring news…” she panted with exhaustion and even fear “good tell me…” He said with more energy than before she then said “I was with companions during the road… south passing through what looked like an abandoned farm on it we saw somebody or something that wore a dark robe and heavy armor…” She coughed a bit before continuing “she or he turned to us and it seemed like the sun was disappearing as darkness engulfed us the others said for me to run and when i looked back i was the only one the dark mass thou stopped growing and the… thing whatever it was… is now heading in this direction” The king gave a nod his eyes looking over the horizon standing in the walls he seemed rather tired to the trained eye. Being a ruler for him wasn't a easy job albeit he was more accustomed to dealing with taxes and even if a different field warfare was equally tiresome with costs, resources, and wasted lives looking over the horizon he sighed checking the fortifications walking away checking the archers on guard duty looking over the wall while some people still left and entered the castle. His eye seemed to stick to a figure in armor walking to the city with a tattered cape for what he could see stopping he could feel a strange chill down his spine.
After a moment of silence a thunder seemed to hit close by everyone blinking from the sudden event. The king could soon see as he opened his eyes a huge black mass swallowing the sun as darkness fell in the city. Soon tentacles exploded from the ground around town swirling, hitting people killing them, some dropping dead suddenly. The king was evacuated by his guards he saw as a dark being the size of a castle broke through the wall swinging its arm as destroying an entire block as death could be felt around the region smashing the land the creature moved forward several dark tentacles emerging from the ground from a tar ponds that seemed to be underground the king soon saw the giant entity become smaller as the entire city seemed to be assaulted landing down the streets his bodyguards and himself draw swords. The being gave a bow before rushing forward killing a guard as blades began to be traded by the guards against it the being dodging with grace killing each one of them by crushing their heads or even body with extremely strong punches, and one just by touching with its hand as its skin seemed to grow pale and falling over as the last guard fell she turned to the king who after seeing the scene unfold readied for battle. It stared at him with its red eyes before giving a nod. Jumping forward the king managed to stop the blow of its hand with his sword as both started giving blows, the king continuously retreating up stairs, the city burning as fires began to take hold of the ruins as the shadow tentacles began to slowly disappear, after destroying much of the city. As the fighting continued to proceeded up stairs he soon grabbed a bucket with the sword throwing at it punching to the side with a look at it quickly dodging as the king seemed to strike forward close by turning to him it them hit his back sending him flying down the stairs hitting the floor he groaned looking back to it walking down the stairs calmly looking at his neck was a two rings held by a string taking deep breaths the world seemed rather calm from the chaos around. But with bloodshot eyes opening he quickly turned around swinging quickly the being able to dodge the way out but his face or just eyes showed a level of surprise soon retreating as he seemed to swing quite quickly against it its dodging becoming seemed to be a bit more with effort as he marched forward with more energy the being seemed more interested.
With a side step it soon quickly grabbed his sword with its hand, looking at him it gave a nod before breaking the blade in half, raising an eyebrow at the king he quickly grabbed a rock throwing at it being held by its hand like nothing, before noticing the blade quickly approaching its eye. Albeit it was slow for it as it quickly it seemed to leave its way, punching the king on its belly making him fall on its back in the floor looking up he was exhausted as it approached its hand before stopping as it stared at him going back its form seemed to give way to something more tangible while still enveloped in darkness he could see a woman almost looking sickly with red eyes and armor she then said “...oh we are not so different.” Looking shocked he then said “I am no monster…” He said panting and she twisted her head lightly saying “Monster? Hmmm maybe I am the legend I build… but legends are nothing but twisted sights of what people wish to see… like you and I, we both would go far for those we love.” she soon turned into the dark being before walking away almost as quickly, seemingly able to fly in the direction she wanted the sunlight returned over the burning region he coughed rising up in the ruined city, one of the few remaining survivors.
Over the next two months more kingdoms disappeared with survivors, telling stories of a shadow creature, marching through it cutting through everything like butter. In total 300 kingdoms fell apart in under three months in what was nicknamed the dark spring. Oa’qeisskesi walked away from the lands she seemed less happy or just felt as her expression barely changed, sighing she thought. “Sparing a few after the death of thousands… what is the point…” she continued marching west.
No creation or anything great or positive or just constructive in general... Oa’qeisskesi or Oa for short as people now call her in the discord and here just goes in a bit of a rampage destroying in total 300 of the 1000 kingdoms out of unwished need.
Oa’qeisskesi stood watching at a distance the maze seeing the sunset in the horizon as Rirakuri’s started leaving the maze to hunt in the woods around, she kept a stare as they moved through the night eating before they returned to the void hunting with their limited skills. Fixing her eyes she soon heard the dark sun whisper “having an idea?” she gave a nod still staring at the hole they came from as the silence of the woods was somewhat calming for her. The sun rose and set at least one more time before she lifted up going down again into the tunnels saying “better prepare them more…” “Shouldn't we… oh wait i see what you are thinking” The sun said disappearing for her once down bellow walking through the halls of the city maze arriving at the spawning pools bellow she gave a nod looking at the architecture that shined illuminating part of the surrounding area before sitting Rirakurian’s kneeled when passing by her not being able to talk unless in primitive forms of clicks, humphs and others. She ignored their attempted ramblings before saying “technology, magic, and hmm more…” her eyes widened a bit as she took her divine form of a dark being floating above the crowd.
Standing on the edge she then made a gesture as the Rirakuri gathered around her she then said “my family… I by here grant you boons and wisdom” She hand waved them as they soon were able to speak in the abyssal language finally talking after emerging from the abyss. Lowering down to their level standing still tall amongst the mumbling crowd as silence finally descended she then said “this is but the beginning there is much to be done…” She felt happy at the current plans and from there she started teaching them about abyssal magic, its ability to devour magic, summon strength from the darkness, cast tentacles, eldritch blasts, summoning tentacles to pin kill or just immobilize an opponent. Magic that came from the abyssal realm itself fueled by soul consumption, corruption, and the dark sun itself. Oa’qeisskesi watched her students from a distance, wandering through the outer layers of the maze watching the exits to regular caves and some mines she hide a small smile with her next plan, observing the mines she quickly categorized the resources around iron, copper, tin and other resources deep beneath the earth. After returning to the Rirakurian pockets of population she started teaching them how to make forges from the architecture and the resources of the great maze before teaching them how to extract the resources of the caves around to melt these resources and to make metal tools from them to use in battle or inside the city for their own benefit.
Once all was in place she sighed at her hard work noticing one final thing to note seeing they seemed to go more distant from the abyss. She sighed raising her hands, she soon grabbed the souls of the Rirakuri, they were abyssal of origin, meaning an afterlife was complicated using her powers, she then tied their sapience and souls into the abyss tying their existence into the abyss if they died they would return to where they came from, even if products of them sometimes they could slip into their own ways but if walking too far they might even forget who they are and disappear after all. After some effort, their souls were tied to the abyss this time without needing her to constantly be around them. Sitting again on the ledge of a bridge seeing the situation below she then rose an eyebrow at a dispute between them she soon sighed realizing a problem; since they had the freedom to choose and to act they most likely would split into petty kingdoms and infight thinking for a moment she soon connected with all the Rirakurian’s in the area. “I realized something, we need organization in this area so let us do something… for all hearing that wishes to rule over this side of the world here a challenge a championship whose prize is to rule over this land shall begin”
Oa’qeisskesi after some days of worked carved a giant colosseum in one of the paths of the maze, suspended over a chasm, and held by chains, the strange architecture also sustaining it, sitting in the royal podium, she watched the mass crowd of Rirakurians bellow in the middle of the stands, cheering the champions more below roughly 100 in total she could count. As the games began she stood watching as they started fighting in matches, the songs of drums, trumpets, and music could be heard. She never was much to bother with these things as she sat almost looking bored but in reality, she was interested in the outcome, seeing the participants start fighting one seemed to be very quick, unfortunately, he fell quite quick as well to the might of a strong man, the strong man as well seemed unbeatable until defeated by the smartest of them and the smartest person fell to the those who could act quicker than he could think. The conflict raged on for many rounds. A new one was soon put on top, not surprising. It was the one who managed to balance all traits needed in combat but in ruling, that would be another story Oa knew that and gave a nod, for now, might, would make right but in time they would choose a new ruler. Floating down in front of the champion she soon extended her hand and in them, her hands manifested a crystal. Its energy was rather, unique giving its users the ability to have more strength than usual but also giving an aura of leadership, around them she soon floated turning to the crowd saying in abyssal. “Aaukisseai!” The crowd went silent and she then said “behold your new ruler and prepare for the future for now… times are starting to change.” She quickly flew up breaking a hole through the arena’s roof and launching debris to the sides making non-fall back leaving a bright hole up before she flew away thinking. “Too many emotions i need to burn some…” her hands were clenched as she soon landed north of the dark woods, seeing villages she felt a tinge of anger, feeling the abyss clenching for relief, after so long her ears could hear rather static.
Summary: Oa gives magic, weapons, and teaches smithing, but also crowns a king finishes a few missing things in her creation and decides to make a fighting club for a day or two before making a new hole in the maze to the surface.
Artifact: Gem of Leadership is basically a ruby that gives its user more strength a leadership aura and the right to rule over all the Riraruki the last is more symbolic.

Jeon wiped his brow and clipped the hammer and chisel he had been using to a little work belt he’d made
“Phew. You know, I think maybe the Kitty had a better way of doing this, because stars above, I am beat” he said, sitting himself down to take a rest. He reached for the other thing on his belt, a flask, and took a swig, only to find it empty. He lifted it up to his eye, then up turned it and shook it. A tiny drop of cider dripped out and fell down, down, down into the abyss he was sitting on the edge of, the drip vanishing into the bottomless pit the bridge the god was sitting on crossed over.
“Drat” the god cursed, before hurling the flask into the abuse as well before delcating “I can't work under these conditions! Pausing for a few moments, and then hoping to his feet and deciding simply “so I won’t”
Then he pulled out a crude map he’d been drawing as he worked and examined it. The labyrinth of tunnels interspersed with large rectangular chambers and massive perfectly circular ones did not do what he had done justice, for while the scale seemed to show just your typical maze, it was anything but that.
No after exploring some of Lekto’s underground, he had concluded that what it was missing was some ancient ruins to explore, and then he had gone completely overboard. Sprawling beneath the darwood was now a massive, sprawling necropolis made of architecture that had started to lose much of the rationality it might have had the further down his booze supply. At this point there was only a bare semblance that the environment had been built with people in mind, architecture sprawling out endlessly for actitectures sake with little rhyme or reason. Staircases of jutting stone steps hung railingless over massive pits, had highly irregular exits, spiraled down into nothing or up to just below the surface. Tunnels bored deep into the earth and stopped for no reason, spiraled in on themselves, suddenly dropped away and then continued on as if nothing had happened. Buildings carved into the tunnel walls, where laid out in ways no sane person would build them, to big, to small, to long, to high ceilinged.
The centerpieces of these were the sets of perfectly round rooms that continued within themselves equally perfectly round walled cities within themselves, who’s structures within their walls piled up ontop of eachother till they reached the domed cavern ceilings.
Scattered through this labyrinth were mineral treasures. Store rooms holding piles of ores, crystals and other treasures of the earth all neatly laid out for the taking, no mining needed, if you could find them that was.
In contrast to this mineral wealth, the labyrinth was dead when it came to life. Jeon had intended to do that next, but, well, in his own words, he was going on break. The only issue was, of course, that even he had no idea where he was.
“Bah, this is worthless” he declared, tossing the map aside before pulling his tools out again and announcing to the void “ you know what, one last bit of work it is then” before taking hammer and chisel and carving out a quite important part of a labyrinth: an exit.
A few dozen heartbeats later and a decrepit castle burst from the earth in the outskirts of the darkwoods, sending the wildlife running. Its decrepit drawbridge slammed down, and the gor matched out, dusting off his hands. “Ahhh, fresh forest air. Now that’s more like it” he said to the trees, before leaping up into them.
It was ever so convenient that Sanctuary towered over everything else, because it made navigating the forest a lot easier. Especially if Sanctuary was your destination. With a gust of wind, Jeon was picked up by his glider and was racing away to raid their brewery for more sweet sweet apple cider.
Oa’qeisskesi wandered through the forest of the southeast; she noticed activity around the region via magic; she made sure to mask herself, while wandering but also keeping a bigger eye around for any inconvenience. A dark sun followed her saying “So several deities are around us if our feelings of energy are correct… and we are forced to move slowly and hide ourselves ah how life is we meet only one and forever haunt ourselves.” “Not a good time for philosophy” she replied quickly jumping to the top of a tree to oversee the area around from the tallest place possible her vision soon picked something quickly jumping in its direction. Her shadow whispered to her she gave a nod, going careful in her steps approaching the tower of stone in the distance.
As she approached she saw a tower or an abandoned fortress of sorts, when close enough at the gates, she soon stopped looking at the structure. Staring for a moment analysing her senses and feelings she quickly moved in. Her senses soon noticed an entrance to the underground with a quick thought she proceeded down below her eyes being able to see in the dark she traveled through she quickly faced many dead ends before turning back and continuing soon arriving in a ravine of many bridges over what seemed like the void continuing her exploration with a curious mind.
She soon found staircases leading to the mass labyrinth below, expending months if not years underground wandering passing through bridges, dead ends being found and places close to the surface. As she counted the seconds once inside as she found herself walking over another bridge the dark sun said “We've been here for years, what are we trying to find?” “well… just something, the place is mostly an empty castle… with this being occasional stuff.” She said pointing to a chest filled with precious ores the dark sun soon said. “A deity built this place that I can guess obviously…” She gave a nod she used most of the time underground to ponder for the most part. Sighing she kneeled on the bridge and gave a large punch to the floor. It barely cracked, indicating fine architecture, it could resist a lot but it was not her goal to break it. Instead, she kept her hand on feeling the echo of the vibrations, she could feel a large structure covering the southeast surrounded by just a few caves she fixed her eyes to bellow in the void beneath the new ravine saying. “A large monumental labyrinth many times the size of a regular castle or fortress with just a few exits.” The dark sun beside her soon said “Oh great a prison for a mortal to go mad.” “But also a hiding spot…” She added thinking for a second.
Both stood in silence as the sun soon said “same idea as me?” Oa sighed saying “we both think the same.” She soon looked down, kicking a small rock down. She then said “create an abyssal spawn here…” “With the full layout of the maze in their brains.” He added to her, giving a quick turn she then said “giving us also a place for them to rule and be easily hidden” she quickly stopped as the sun said “and for them to raid the surface…” Oa stopped thinking before saying “Ashvelen asked us not too…” the sun quickly approached saying “True… a truce exists between them and her people… for now… for we know what is the main problem…” She gave a nod with a sigh the room was empty turning to the void she soon jumped, squeezing her hands liquid began to fall faster than her and what seemed like a pond formed at the bottom of the pit as she fell in a tar lake as the lake grown in it there were white eyes glowing through. But soon many others began to appear and as the lake grew until reaching a limit, many hundreds of thousands of eyes could be seen.
Emerging from the pond there were several tentacles emerging more roofs hit the soil as they arose they began to wander around they, had tentacles in their head, four legs and three sets of mouths around them their tentacles made up most of their body moving, twisting and twitching Oa soon floated up from the lake as the kin arose once in a bridge she soon shouted “Arise Rirakuri’s.” They soon turned to her and she soon said “This city is yours to rule and govern it now go….” She waved her hand as the creatures started to shapeshift into other horrors or disguise into parts of the wall and to move across the walls into the maze spawning from the spawning pool quickly turning to other areas of the maze she created other spawning pools where more could appear.
After done she walked to the closest part to the surface, breaking a hole through the maze leading to the surface after the smoke settled. She sighed seeing the night sky almost made her feel happy she soon said “well… this was an interesting experience.” She soon moved under the cover of darkness and the sun appeared again, soon saying “Down below we also felt more than just the maze…” “Several hundred thousand kilometres of caves I noticed… seems like an interesting point for the future…” She said moving away in the direction of the mountains. “Indeed…” he replied as the sun rose again in the left-out crater howls could be partially heard in the.
Jeon made a labyrinthine city, then went on break for 5 min, and in that time Oa went and filled it with abyse monsters
Rirakuri’s
A race of tentacle blobs somewhat larger than a person that can shapeshift into any form they desire have sharp teeth in their mouths and can manifest eyes whenever they need in their bodies.

The deserts overlooked the dark clouds of the north as a figure wandered through its sands. “The Nature of existence and the meaning of life is to seek…” “what?” a voice uttered in a dark tongue as Oa’qeisskesi wandered the sand lands of the west heading south, the sun high in the sky. The winds blew, the shifting dunes as Oa'qeisskesi wandered through the land. From the sun's rise and set to the rise of the night she wandered, the land mortals along her way perished and their souls consumed as she wandered. She found a lost soul wandering in the sand before she plunged into it devouring it and soon stood still pondering as her victim is none existent anymore. “...is in fear of death that meaning is found?” She soon moved forward, passing through the sand occasionally, stopping to make a pit before crossing through the channel. Beyond the lands of the great desert, her mind was aware of some things in the world. Yet the information was still being gathered in her travels under the sun and the night for many days and still she pondered about herself while learning about the world. Staring at the night sky, seeing it pass with every minute seeing the magnetism of the planet but also the pillars of reality, she soon said. “...is meaning found in discovering the unknown?” sitting on the sands she sighed seeing the night set and a new day. The red scorching moon, burning in the heavens soon disappeared with the rising sun as the sky turned blue time, seemed to move fast and the sun reached high in the sky. She soon sighed, closing her glowing red eyes.
“It's not good to lay in the sand” She opened her eyes seeing the dark sun floating above her head sighing she soon lifted herself off the sand saying. “I am relaxing…” “In the middle of nowhere?” The dark sun asked, walking forward and she then said. “I am thinking…” Several whispers could be heard as she moved from several feet before saying. “can you all stop…” She sighed moving forward, at the silence, finding a dead husk of a tree in the sands. She sighed and she then said while taking a seat “What do you guys want can't you see I've been trying to not be found?” A million whispers could soon be heard all talking in dark tongues. She then said “I don't have enough power to bring everyone to this side… well not yet anyway” She cracked part of the wood, grabbed the broken-off branch and moved up the small sand hill. After arriving at the top the dark sun soon said. “Not when dealing with small beings that can't think much and from your zig-zag from coast to mountain don't you think I didn't notice the tar pools you made.” She soon stopped thinking and gave a nod.
Turning around to the empty area below, raising both hands she soon grabbed her palm with her other hand and with pressure tar began to flow down her hand into the pit. The previous small depression soon began to quickly be flooded, with a black liquid akin to tar until it covered the dead husk of a tree and became a large pond of black goo. Touching the liquid with her hand it laid flat like touching smooth stone instead of a liquid. Closing her eyes the pond soon had white eyes looking at her and she said. “Neu kie Lana’sou osa Siaasouai rasrosu Aolrihas.” The sun moved quickly across the sky and began to twilight on the horizon. The region soon glowed in a strange purple aura for hours, Oa’qeisskesi stood at the pool staring at it; she soon gave a nod and rose up as the pond and others in the desert glowed red before the light faded as she soon moved away walking away and looking at the moon staring for a second at the burning planetoid in orbit she soon said. “Better keep my head low if it's true what I felt…” She continued moving going up a hill and marching on, she soon saw the sands end and become grasslands her vision could see a mountain and a passage leading to a forest she fixed her eyes in the woods giving a nod and moving on changing her form a person with a large cover and a walking stick moving through the grasslands south stopping for a moment the figure seemed to say. “Arise…” with a pause in silence it soon began to move away.
Meanwhile back at the dark pond one of several she made along her journey a giant arm with claws emerged scraping the sand appeared rising up two arms were shown but also four legs, spikes were common at its back, and three white blank eyes appeared as the tar left its face its teeth were razor sharp, skin pala black with red spots its tail was akin to a mace. Many others soon emerged as well, all looking up, staring at the night sky before opening their mouths and screaming with a howl akin to a banshee in despair. All of them soon turned in that direction as they noticed the presence of life and the smell of a soul nearby. Before running in a desperate rush. Across the sands more of the ponds awakened more of the monsters being born, the ponds drying up in a single night as they were born the Seis’huenaoi marched in many numbers across the sands of the west. Oa’qeisskesi marched ever closer to the woodlands and the dark sun soon said. “Why did you make them like that?” “What?” she asked, still marching forward the forest getting close. “Nothing just noticed they are not meant to last…” “Exactly...” She said with a small smile. “You are devious…” He said with a chuckle as he disappeared she got close to the Umbral woods.
Oa’qeisskesi is pondering and thinking and then she made an experiment.
Race created Seis’huenaoi They are a Abyssal race with two arms and four legs akin to nightmare wolves of varying size, having a limit of a size equivalent to a Rhino, having thick leather carapaces to protect themselves fangs, sharp claws, and tails akin to a mace with spikes. On their back, they have spikes that are more akin to decorative horns almost akin to tusks, that grow bigger with time and the number of souls devoured.
One thing that they have is corrupting energy, poison from the abyss, something that if killed still pesters, their bodies only fading by the passage of time and heat, within them and growing to somewhat to the surface there were precious gemstones rare types that stores mana or magic giving buffs to whoever uses them.
This fellas:

Grasslands and a few lone trees stood in the open cold steppes beyond the Stormbreaker mountains. A bird landed on a tree eating from a small fruit, dangling from one branch. The winds blew wildly in the steppes until they finally for once stopped blowing from the cold north. The mountains were close to be able to see their peaks and the land seemed to be calm. Soon a silence fell as the birds stopped, looking around sensing something wrong. Beneath the earth the darkness of stone that surrounded the area, whispers could be heard if one was present. They talked of anger, happiness, hatred, fear, and many emotions being whispered voices of different beings until silence settled once again into silence but standing in the darkness. An echo was heard as the dark sun was born, starting to be surrounded by darkness, immediate darkness as fires engulfed it. The land around started shaking with a small earthquake, all birds flying in panic sensing what was to happen. The land seemed stable but soon started to crack, the winds growing once again the earth making strange sounds while shaking beneath the surface the underworld, a lava chamber, began to quickly build up and in its center an orb of darkness surrounded. The orb began to soon expand into a dark feminine shape; voices could be heard around in a strange tongue almost like the echo of a thousand voices. On the surface the land started to deform as it was pressured from below, growing bigger like a bubble, ready to burst marked with red and purple veins from the ground cracking. Within it, the dark being stared at her own heart beginning to be encrusted and pulsating in red flames raising her head as the area shook her red eyes looked at a hole in the crust seeing the sky she soon said “Ai lessres…”
A long distance in the mountains themselves the cold winds blew over the mountains. The air seemed calm until the wind seemed to stop in silence as the explosion. Rocked the steppes the light from a small sun glowed in the distance like a sunrise, across the world a small earthquake could be felt for a small moment before stopping. As for the region itself, the shock wave flattened most stuff, close by in the first second, the mountains soon being hit by the shockwave in a much weaker state just lifting some small amounts of snow. Soon chunks of rock lifted up by the eruption began to rain down across the entire area as the smoke and ash lifted up soon began to cover the sky and to run down the steppes burning, and suffocating, everything in toxic fumes and darkness, covering the land, lightning being the only source of light together with the faint light of the sun as it pierced the skys. The land burned as the smoke spread across the region in the center of the eruption. Rivers of molten lava with a taint of purple glow began to pour out of the crater flowing westwards. The skies were increasingly darkened as the clouds moved further west, animals trying to outpace the coming storm. The crater, the center of the eruption, resembled an uncanny, flat volcanic caldera flowing out around it. The land was deformed in several sections raised by the quakes from the earth and the eruption resembled a cracked volcanic landscape. The ash was dense and fell from the sky all around the area, making visibility very difficult and the air was dense and hot with the smell of sulfur and methane. As the lava poured a dark shadowy hand, grabbed the edge of the crater rising herself up Oa’qeisskesi left the cauldera. looking up, seeing lightning. The smoke cloud she soon started walking forward stumbling whispers could be heard around her loudly speaking in an indecipherable memory before she screamed in dark tongue with a deep monstrous voice “SHUT IT!” The whispers soon calmed down and she sighed, gaining footing from her confused state, changing her shape to a knight. She soon said. “March we must… for now...” She soon started to walk west towards the coast away from the eruption site she soon said. “Yes, good idea.”
As she walked through the waste the area of effect of the eruption only grew, within an edge where some plants that survived the ground near then soon cracked with purple veins and the remaining vegetation soon died as the area became corrupted by the abyss as if the ash and smoke weren't enough for the plants in the area. But soon began to be overtaken by the smoke of the eruption, the volcano constantly, making more smog and ash ever-expanding, the dark clouds in all directions. The mountains to its south were the first to stop the smoke forcing it to move west and north spreading, the darkness and shadow further in the northlands as life runs from its effects. Oa’qeisskesi meanwhile walked away from its increasing shadow.
Oa’qeisskesi comes into existence and torches a entire area.
5 mp/ 5 ap 4 might to be used to significantly terraform the steppes into a corrupted ashen wasteland.
Divine Astral form: Oa’qeisskesi in her divine form takes two shapes one of a shadowy being with blood cracks resembling crevices on its skin, having four arms with blood red eyes. Its form almost resembles a lady in a dress covered in shadows. Her heart if seen or core is a black flame with a red aura, around it dancing in an erratic way. Her core aura is also one that surrounds her almost all time in her divine form, one that disappears in the darkness of the world.
Her other divine form is her more presentable form when in divine need of form, instead of one hidden in darkness one that is her astral form. her second form is a woman with a bone white exoskeleton with red skin, four fingers in her hands, some white clothe skirt, a single unicorn like horn in her head yellow eyes and pink lips.
Her Warrior and Casual form: Oa’qeisskesi when in her more presentable seems to look like a knight, wearing a dark tattered cape, scale armor, beautifully designed with inscriptions written in the Abyssal tongue, along with symbols that resemble the dark sun underneath. When removing her helmet, Oa’qeisskesi shows a being with red eyes, tainted pale skin with dark veins and hair that is both black and white. She has golden horns that form a crown atop her head. how one may argue its also her casual form is simple the armor is a suit.
When not in need of fighting or appear more warrior like. She removes her armor having a woman who is of pale skin, and black lips, with dark veins popping off her skin, red eyes, with white hair with patches of dark hair and a crown of horns. This is her regular form without her artifact armor. Prefering to wear more free moving clothes such as togas, Chiton's or many others.
Aspect The Abyss
The Abyss; the domain of nightmares, the kingdom of monsters, the dominion of the Dark Sun, the aspect of Oa’qeisskesi. The Abyss or the realm of Dark Sun as its heart is called, contains dark powers beyond belief. The realm is home to monsters, known as the Oeianakus - Fiendish creatures that haunt the minds of mortals, until they manifest and wreak havoc on the material world. Within its dark ocean akin to tar, swimming through it for a mortal being, will kill it instantly and its soul will be devoured, becoming fuel to make more Oeianakus or allow them to take physical form. The Abyss is known to corrupt mortals, when near they feel sick and become emotionally erratic, turning them into diabolical beings or simply servants of the Abyss. Sometimes mortals, either due to willpower or luck, are spared of its corruption and instead feeling uncontrolled heights of joy, mental madness, hatred and rage. The domain lies in darkness, illuminated only by the glows below from the dark Sun itself, dancing in its center. From outside the Abyss itself, radiates a faint illumination out of the center of the Abyss itself, like a faint light that appears once in a while. For deities, the area almost feels repulsive to the eye, when first seen but one thing is sure for all. None can see what lies within, but all can see the million white eyes that stare from the void straight to your soul.
The Dark Sun is the core of the Abyss and is found within Oa’qeisskesi, carrying within her mind and heart. The sun is separate, yet it is her, both are and not are each other, both carrying the powers of the Abyss. She is the one who gives shapes to the monsters or grants them the right to make themselves physical beyond the Abyssal sea, granting her the name Mother of Monsters and Queen of Darkness. The powers granted beyond the ability to make Oeianakus and monsters from will are many. Oa’qeisskesi commands the dark fires of the abyss, the spawn from the dark sun, the very essence of the Abyss, the form of a warm yet cold flame. It spread itself through life corrupting it and killing it but also manipulating the minds of mortals around her, she seeks the power to command the night to devour the light and to engulf the world in darkness.
Oa’qeisskesi can be described as patient, silent, calm, yet energetic in combat. When the situations call it, she seems to be decisive yet when the situation doesn't demand immediate responses, she is contemplative. In contrast, alone she seems to whisper to herself, and when learning enough Oa’qeisskesi seems to be overly paranoid as well, generally scanning the area all the time for traps or ambushes, or for something else she sees. She has an occasional burst of megalomania, and laughter. When not around deities she acts more expressive and calm, if not happy compared to a commonly static face.
Government Form: A Feudal Kleptocracy/kratocracy/plutocratic confederation of Warlords
Demographics: 85%-90% are descendants of the name that humans call themselves in this world albeit one thing that makes the difference is an eye colour variation that is unnatural even in inheritance chance.
10%-15% Dacey a humanoid race of unknown origin to the league they have snake-like skin its colouration varying from red, blue, dark, and purple, extremely common is the presence of horns of different shapes and sizes some are just two formed at the side of the head facing forward others look like a forest of horns completely ending any superficial hair on the head their hair is of white to black colouration as the only recorded their bodies are equal to humans except with bone spurs and other differences in physical but still retaining a humanoid look one being a tail.
Population: 1.5 Billion --- (This is probably a good place to insert a flag or other representative image) ---
Planets Vusary is the homeworld and only habitable planet of the league, with a shattered moon orbiting it, while this seems to restrain most of the clans and leaders generally operating in the surrounding moons and asteroids. Vusary is an arid world with few river valleys, and small oceans, while also being partially radioactive in some deserts, forests are a rare sight to find generally located on its river valleys, and more humid plains the world is also littered with ruins of the old civilization, cities are generally concentrated on its space elevators and spaceports but also in the planets mineral extraction zones different from other worlds Vusary is an extremely mineral rich one that results in a lot of conflict between its leaders its population generally is geared towards mineral extraction and manufacture leading to a very polluted area of operation. Its biosphere is mostly arid with animals and plants being resistant and water packaging due to the planet's heat one thing that a traveller must be wary of is that while the biosphere might at first look calm and good be careful for it also equally harbours animals of extreme danger that live beneath the sands or hills waiting for prey some are native animals and others are bioweapons lost to time.
History History before the league can be summarized as mythology, the biggest pain to decipher as history has been buried beneath the sands of time but this is the legends of the 8 clans.
Long ago it is said that a ship passed through the ancient gate arriving in Vusary at the time a beautiful great lush garden world with two suns called hope and dawn upon landing they met with the natives the Dacey a people who build cities of glass and silver the humans in the ship met with the leaders of the Dacey and after a great debate the humans would be allowed to settle in the unpopulated areas of the world but choose one the group had to make the group of humans split and with no way to agree 8 siblings 4 men and woman fought over the destiny of man and with no resolution settled in a deal the 8 would split the settlers and settle different parts of the world.
The descends of Bael, Kal, Niko, Naro, Jale, Luka, Utya, and Vixtra the immortal lords of the nations soon split the world into 8 nations each one going into the stars to explore the planet and its system the Dacey were forced to deal not with one but with 8 nations slowly and steadily the 8 assimilated the 9th the nation of Dacey until they and the clans became nearly divided in all most everything at the will of their immortal lords.
The once siblings hated each other more than everything and seeking to gain an advantage over the other each one of them went to the moons and worlds of the system building cities in the clouds of gas giants to even the surface of the sun pitting their children to compete in blood arenas in Vusary seeking to be better in body and mind using technology and unholy knowledge from forbidden powers to change their children into other beings even themselves into monsters crafting spears capable of annihilating continents and swords to destroy moons and then created the mightiest weapon of then all the trident of Bahl who could destroy the very self stars of the sky.
In hatred from each other they went to war sending their own blood to fight against the blood of their brothers their own grandchildren the war killed many and the weapons they used destroyed the beauty of old as the beautiful grasslands of Vusary turned into sand the once fertile soil covered in blood and bodies turning it to salt and nothing more grew but the biggest mistake was when the trident of Bahel was used and the twin star of dawn died it is said the heavens shook and parted bleeding with anger, pain and fear the world just like the heavens lost its hope blood rained and storms raged across all worlds as the reign of the 8 lords came to a end the lords once glorious met once again wearing tattered clothing and having scars themselves lost to being monsters and they wept over the devastation they brought to their children as now feared they were as monsters not as fathers and mothers but as monsters to be feared and avoided driven off from their own the descendents homes soon their children spread through the earth to seek refuge amongst its barren wastes as for the lord's their tears created the last seas of the world to heal the earth they harmed, before disapearing never more to be seen many say that they died others claim they still live in exile some say they will return and bring the end and to enslave all once again but for many they are dead or living as hermits.
-Non-mythological knowledge-
Now utilizing the Leagues knowledge for an unknown amount of time ages the world was set over by warlords but there was one difference in the world chaos reigned but in orbit opportunists and greedy individuals managed to do the impossible building weapons and ships they soon arrived in the last space elevators and using their weapons they erased a few cities from the surface threatening even greater retaliation the 6 soon split the world between then and the other star lords and pirates were forced to bow establishing the league while 2 of the founding members would fall apart the remaining 4 created the great council and using their power it brought stability to the region while also creating a form of feudal pirate state where now hundreds of warlords or clans compete for wealth and power some wishing to become a new member of the great council others not the star system is now at stability even if that stability is partially set about by warlords fighting each other and clans increasing consolidating bringing greater instability.
the nicknamed first, second and 3rd cyber wars are the nicknames given for the wars set about machines and man across the planet and the star system generally named due to the awakening of the nicknamed cybernetical generals Artificial intelligence is known generally primitive in some places of the world and sometimes very advanced but AI in the sense of pre-collapse society is considered too dangerous most of the time robots can be seen wandering the wastes getting close can get you killed but when a Cybernetical General is unearthed several machines are activated and flock towards its location generally activates into a makeshift factory and launches several incursions in what is called a cyber war when machines go to war against man while the severity varies most of the time a form of cease-fire is made between all factions to deal with this sort of threat as Cyber wars are known to spiral extremely quickly towards a apocalyptic war the last ward nicknamed the 3rd cyber war engulfed the entire northern hemisphere and causing millions of dead after that machines of old are seen as untrustworthy and generally a don't touch subject.
Culture and Society The League and its culture are difficult to guess. Each clan has a unified yet separate culture with certain values being upheld and others not, virtues and sins are different from one clan to another, one thing that is quite obvious across the board. for a researcher from abroad is who, and which culture did the Vusarian people came from, and the general answer is “we don't know” in surviving archives from Vusary the arks that came to their star system go from Asian, to american, indian, native american, chinese, arabian, and many, many other groups, the obvious problem is that time has passed shortly since the fall of earth for many, but it seems like almost two thousand years, have passed in Vusary instead, examples include, their language is not one registered, in any file nor has any thing that can indicate their origins, their culture is something new yet, similar with the clans separating their culture, it makes one think its a star system of 8 diferent peoples but in reality the clans seem to play low term influence or even moderate with all peoples if rumors that clans influence one's personality by genetics but the people share things in common being in faith, some morals, architecture, but for a start the clans they are not clans in traditional sense of families and similar stuff clans are genetical descendents of the eight original rulers at least that is how the story goes but one that might be considered true since a member of a clan is marked by their glowing eyes and traits are nearly identical.
The 8 clans are the descendants of the eight rulers of Vusary their descendants and who you are born to and for information, some individuals break the mold of their clans but overall many seem to emulate their clan's behaviour once again the clans are the Baelites, Kaleviteris, Nikorians, Narorites, Jalerians, Lukarians, Children of Utya, and Vixtrians.
Baelites sons of Bael are considered to be very aggressive in actions, generally power hungry and wishing to gain more and more power. This clan is famous for its members being ambitious but also forming a hierarchical structure wherever they are in many numbers or with many other clans under them biologically they are found by having sulfur reddish eyes.
Kaleviterites are considered good people to be around friends with everyone factions, or states managed by them generally are more humanist compared to other factions the obvious problem is that Kaleviterites are generally the poorest clan who espoused an idealistic vision of the world they are easy to identify by having a very bright green.
Nikorians are considered aggressive, their personalities and generally values align with might preferring strength Nikorians have a personality yet a vision of a world where might makes right having red eyes.
Narorites are gregarious in nature but in general terms, they have a tendency to be followers of order preferring to establish a more orderly state generally called diplomats they value cooperation having a form of silver for eyes.
Jalerians are considered thrift in many ways if not very greedy, having orange eyes they value wealth accumulation and life of a merchant and trading even if that includes doing illicit business generally called opportunists and strange beings.
Lukarians are considered scholars preferring the following philosophy and knowledge while not big in numbers they are easy to spot as bureaucrats and stoics preferring to have a calm life in search of mysteries having their eyes blue.
Children of Utya are considered adventurers and explorers generally being called trouble makers as they are far more impulsive in their actions one thing that one would find is that most people within this clan are young one thing that is generally called is the curse of Utya that cuts the life of his children by nearly half having gold eyes;
Vixtrians are considered sly and secretive having dark sclera with purple eyes; Vixtrians is known for never turning your back on them as they are considered to value lies, plots and others above everything many consider them spies and thieves but also individualists they value their own freedom above everything.
Religion wise the Vusarian people and its clans follow the same beliefs about the descendants but also the faith of the goddess and the spirits which can be described as a decentralized form of religion that seems to be more of personal faith focusing on spirits and the worship of the goddess which is difficult to gage who she is but she is generally called the all mother and mother of the 8 first rulers before dying while sending her children to live amongst the stars together with other humans.
Architecturally speaking all Vusarian follow an equal architecture a form of unified one but big strokes of many different colours and a functional yet grandiose and in certain terms militaristic form of construction while poor in resources Vusarians innate engineering ability allows them to circumnavigate a lot of problems making things spiky functional but grand and colourful in space said things are very much used to make fortresses that for the eye are impressive and just as dangerous.
Culinary for Vusarians is the only thing that separates them in space most food you might find is grown in space stations meaning small animals and plants making a somewhat poor food selection now planet side things are different having many choices of plants and animals and even spices that are generally exported off planet becoming very good commodities for space-faring people for an arid desertic planet Vusary produces extremely strong spices and even meat that can work as an aphrodisiac one thing one must keep eye thou is animals being radioactive or the general attack of mechanical horrors of old if you are wondering around one thing that is considered rare to find in the system in the zone of culinary is sugars the planet and most plants have a lack of production of sugar-rich products making sweet something of a rich only favourite.
The Vusurian language is called the old tongue or the original tongue based on the old civilization while it is said that they, unfortunately, can't read old computer language or even read ancient ruins indicating that the original tongue is more modern.
recent developments are strange to explain for ages warlords ruled and fought with no one being able to come out on top no minor kingdoms existed even republics until the league was born while the war still exists it is much minor and once the diverging way of their clans stopped and with wars ended in favor of a minor peace leading many to ponder the future now and by tomorrow as people have yet to see what they would do and with increasing feudalism of the league many fighting against the ruling oligarchies.
---
Governance and Politics: The league is ruled by the great council established by 6 great warlords that brought the system to a sense of “peace” forging the gran lords who regulate and keep the system at peace even if it is just by the rule of economic or military might instead of a sense of law that while existing is still very week and only kept at bay by their power the great council originally had 6 heads until 2 of the founders died off and their families together leaving the council to have only four members the four rule large swaths of land and control a majority of Vusary’s spaceports and space elevators together with the surface of the planet allowing then to have massive military fleets compared to others.
The council while enacting rules and orders to the whole system there is also the warlord who with the new peace and different situation started to consolidate increasingly forming bigger and bigger lord nations while still under then this hundreds of warlords form a form of legislative as they operating together make laws that are given as petitions to the great council for approval sometimes causing problems and even small civil wars this small part of the league is growing increasingly more consolidated and thanks to laws becoming more solidified many fear the beginning of the end of the previous freedom this creates a series of conflicts within the league as for ages many warlords fought and rivalries existed until now.
Technology Overview: a lot of their technology looks a bit different yet similar and some may say very improvised by the look yet very advanced when looking closer a people with no higher education.
One technology that was invented during the dark times when space travel was considered a priority and raiding was problematic was extremely advanced cloaking and sensor deafening technology turning ships invisible to the eye sensor and even thermal detectors causing many problems with stealth fleets flying around easily detected by their own technology.
Cheap metal Recycling is a technology utilized in re-appropriation and low consumption of materials allowing infrastructure, from cities to dockyards even guns and blades generally it's a technology built out of conservation of resources due to the situation in the star system being considered bad.
Improvised Energy reactors it's not uncommon generally formed as fusion cores of atoms or simply micro nuclear reactors to fusion reactors assembled with more complex machinery or scavenged from the wastes these reactors generally are used to power more advanced parts of the world.
Advanced weapons or simply energetic/plasma experimental weaponry is something that generally developed within the League this is mostly thanks to the natural engineering skills of their people powered by elements found on their world or simply micro fusion cells generally being developed generally explodes in one's hands and sometimes it causes cancer.
Improvised quality made weapons is a good way to put the weaponry of the league and the entire star system while weapons are generally assembled and utilize scrap metal and others their quality rivals most weapons in industrial times due to the fact that many Vusarians know how to treat, fix, maintain and build weapons from the materials needed some can even get to be energy weapons but for the most part they are projectile based for the most part.
Power armour became a recent development and rediscovery utilizing better productions methods power armour of heavy to agility-based levels began to be mass produced as the league finale consolidated power resulting in a revolution in the war leading to more deaths as a consequence of utilizing more better materials and powered by either batteries or Micro Reactors generally a menace in combat unless one carries heavy bullets or plasma.
Ancient debris is also a technology the empire has well not technology and more like unknown scrap metal with odd properties and odd behaviours sometimes utilized for minor applications or innovation or as powerful weapons the best thing one can know about the league is that its past is still being uncovered technologies exist that can't be replicated and many things still are buried in the sand that makes much fear if it can tip the balance of powers.
Military Overview: Military speaking the league follows a different form of military strategy, especially in conventional war the league follows asymmetrical warfare as a major military tactic combined with a strange form of superior firepower doctrine.
Most ships of the League can be described as divided first, mostly improvised vessels mixed with asteroid dockyards that allowed the construction of creative ships that are utilized in less than conventional ways of war, exploration and looting.
In the aftermath of the founding of the league, the army became more advanced from ships that are more modernized, more weaponised and much more dangerous while advancing old ships and becoming more dangerous artillery cannons and new weapons being made in time.
When dealing with military-ready fleets they are angular in design maintaining a straightforward operational standard situation one thing that they excel thou is the ability to make you not know where weaponry is located allowing for shooting to be mostly spread and random instead of focused just like conventional and profession forces their fleets are separated between battleships, cruisers, destroyers, and fighter/bombers but also transports the flotilla, for now, is divided between the council of 4 allowing the extremely big flotilla to police, secure and to respond to immediate threats the fleet thou spouses a problem due to a low level of manufacturing the league has few heavy ships and has in more utility low weight ships in case of combat battleships are seen rarely compared to destroys or cruisers that also operate as carriers.
land armies are more of a mix, armies in the league are more thought of as marine divisions or power armour forces in ships land combat is not a focus and more garrisons are put forward supported compared to armies this is due to orbital forces generally causing massive damage in case of surface problems the only true professional land armies are organized quick raiding forces or warlords with control of the planet having power armour and limited ground vehicles for warfare.
There will be only a few things you need to know and that I will tell
1. I am a guy
2. why are you interested in who I am?
3. it can be very easy to make a friendship but you need to learn how to handle someone with Asperger a spectrum of autism plus several mental issues.
4. and also I am a bit of a quiet guy sometimes [b][i]Specialy after a while[/i][/b] but if you manage to catch my attention I can be very close and talkative [b][s]sometimes[/s][/b].
