Hello! You can reach me on Discord as well as here, TheIncredibleRory#1992. We need more players exactly like you. The story is centered around the ruling houses of the Empire of Gallia. Beneath their Benevolent Empress and their family line, the House of Estic, Gallia has flourished for the past 1000 years, uniting the central landmass of the major western continent of Altea, known as Gallias. The game will be starting in the year 4992. The Empire grew, knowledge grew, civilization grew. It was largely a time of prosperity, but an Ancient Prophecy stated that the Empire would rise and fall. Nobody paid this much heed; Gallia was able to defeat the Tribes of Avrasia to the North, and Orestes to the South, and kept diplomatic relations with the Empire of Khanaan on the Eastern Continent. Between those powers, little could challenge them. Then came the Collapse. Nobody knows what caused it; it's said to be the work of the Gods. Altea was once orbited by two moons; in the year of 4413, these Moons collided, causing natural disasters and wreaking destruction upon the land. Only the remains of one broken moon remain in the night sky, with a vivid ring of debris around the planet. The Gallian Empire persisted through the collapse; but not without cost. They lost a large amount of their progress; fragments from the Moonfall as well as other natural disasters devastated their domain. The Northerners in Avrasia, always superstitious, blamed it on the Gallians freely and recklessly calling upon the powers of the Gods (using magic), and it wasn't long until they declared independence. In the years following the Moonfall, Gallia was in no position to reign them in. Their own twisted, bizzare warped religion resulted from this; Avrasia is now a state ruled by Puppets where the Church's Holy Inquisition Holds all the power. They declared a crusade against all non-believers, and invaded northern Gallia in 4992 after consolidating power. In Gallia, the Eastern part of the continent of Gallias, known as “Praesia”, has risen-up in revolt, demanding a government of elected representatives over Feudalism. These representatives happen to be all members of royal families, but when has true purpose ever mattered over an easily-swallowed Lie? It's always easier to point blame at a single tyrant 1000 miles away than 100 tyrants one mile away. The Land is hurt; the Moonfall was a major event that rained debris and darkness upon the land, temporarily throwing the planets climate out of place, causing an ice age and causing the seasons to become unpredictable as Altea has moved from it's original access, with tides, now bound to only one celestial body, rising high and covering up 30% of land that was previously inhabitable. While the land has recovered, the damage can still be seen, and cities that were abandoned or deserted and other places lost to time litter the land. In this great time of Strife, the Empress has called upon her three Kings; King Fidelus Rynn of Galicia; the Southern part of Gallia. Queen Moriya Ronzo of Fendrel, of Central Gallia. And lastly, King Maxim D'Rohan of Heideholm, the King of the Northern Territories of Gallia. There was a fourth King, King Orestes of Praesia. The King has refused summons and has not used his troops to quell the rebellion in Praesia, or communicated with the crown in any way. The Players will all be retainers or Nobles of Major Houses, pending creation decision and choices, of King Maxim D'Rohan of Heideholm. ______________ If that looks looks like it's fun, what are you waiting for? :) Come by and say Hi!
