Oblivion: A Story Forgotten

Huladuras stood before a mighty beast now, seemingly having just finished with another less fortunate soul than himself. But, rather than listen to the creature, Huladuras simply looked down at himself, extending his free, left hand forwards to inspect it. It was marked by flame and ash, scorch and burn, and so was the rest of his body, only covered by a thin loincloth that covered his privates. Then, he looked right, up and down the shaft of the polearm, inspecting it, and then turning it sideways in his hand, gripping it with two hands. Finally his eyes gazed upon the minotaur king before him.

"I am Huladuras," he stated, letting his foot drag backwards through the dirt of the colloseum, entering a fighting position. "And I am no prodigal son." Without any further warning he rushed forwards, the polearm swinging back before he sent it hurtling forwards towards the minotaur, swinging the hammer at it's face. Of course, Huladuras had not seen how the minotaur crushed the former 'prodigal son' and so needed to find out just what this beast was capable of. In the off chance that the minotaur dodged the attack -- or even better, it hit -- he would swing the polearm back the way it had come from, in reverse, trying to hack the pick into the minotaurs head.

Of course, there was no guarantee that this would work. But nothing ventured, nothing gained.

@Celsius hey, I was wondering if you still had a spot open? I saw you lost a player and, if it's any help, I could maybe take over that spot?

Post a random fact about yourself.

My favorite band is the Rolling Stones!

Empire State

House of Sutherbrooke, Lords of Brooklyn

Name

The Noble House of Sutherbrooke, Lords on The Wonder Wheel and Rulers of Brooklyn.
• Rulers of The Coney Isle, Defenders of Sheepshead Bay, Keepers of Broad Channel & Jamaica Bay, and Princes of The Rockaways.
_{House Sutherbrooke has long-ago given up any holdings or land in The Rockaways, but were allowed to retain their ancestral titles as a concession during the Imperial Conquest of Queens.}

Location

_{House Sutherbrooke rules over the borough of Brooklyn, though they are mostly consolidated to her southern ports and outlying islands.}

History

From the dustiest, forgotten annals of yesteryear to the political landscape of the present day, the history of Brooklyn and her leadership has always been one rife with bloodshed. While other boroughs and slivers of their land were slowly swallowed up by self-proclaimed kings, dukes, and emperors, the borders of Brooklyn are said to have remained unmoved since their founding hundreds of years ago. For most of modern history, Brooklyn instead faced hardships within her own walls between feuding factions; Namely, the noble houses of Norbrooke, Westerbrooke, Easterbrooke and Sutherbrooke, who each held dominion over their respective portions of Brooklyn.

These four regions are said to have battled for generations with little progress on any of their four fronts -- The tides of battles would turn in matters of days, keeps taken in wartime were typically taken back within months, and borders pushed back during would-be conquests would find themselves returned within the year. These pyrrhic victories did little for Brooklyn other than whittle her population and resources down to where they were unable to resist the Imperial Conquest, resulting in a brief war within the borough known as the War for Brooklyn. Though the fledgling Empire was an entirely new threat to the rest of Brooklyn, the House of Sutherbrooke had relatively warm relations with the Empire by the start of the war, previously ceding territories in The Rockaways taken from Queens in exchange for a budding trade agreement.

During the War for Brooklyn, the House of Sutherbrooke arranged for secret negotiations with Emperor Charles Albanie, allowing the imperial fleet to consolidate ships within Jamaica Bay and safe passage through the South Brooklyn Channel, in exchange for South Brooklyn's ports being unmolested and support for House Sutherbrooke's rulership of Brooklyn should their combined forces be successful in the war. Over the course of the year, the imperially-backed Sutherbrooke forces did just that, smashing the unorganized pagan tribes of East Brooklyn, routing the North Brooklyn infantry, and brokering an agreement with the League of Columbia in order to defeat the larger Westerbrooke forces in a naval invasion. When the warring was done, the three Lords of Brooklyn laid down their arms and kissed the emerald ring of Lord Sutherbrooke, rising instead as Earls of Eastern, Northern, and Western Brooklyn, solidifying Brooklyn's rule once and for all.

CRINKLE 4 life brother,

The Empire State

@Pepperm1nts Formerly pro-democracy defensive order turned pro-Sutherbrooke militant trade entity? Sign me up!
Their coastal origins and settlement on Liberty Island sounds like they started on the opposite end of Brooklyn (Sunset Park, Red Hook, Gowanus, etc.) so it definitely works to have a friendly entity firmly situated on the other Brooklyn coast. The two would easily access each other via the Ocean Parkway, but now we're getting more into worldbuilding. Anyway, definitely cool w the Columbian League.

Eager, and ready? Yeah. Ready.
