Iteru

This is a planet inhabited (or was inhabited) by birds, salamanders, and crocodiles. It is based on Ancient Egyptian Mythology. Before the series began, Tate committed the Iteru Genocide, wiping out all life on the planet save for Taftenkhamun and Lord Etbo. Appears in Books 1, 6, and 7.

Army:

-Iteru Soldiers: Composed of Iteru of all classes and races, these soldiers were drafted by the Pharaoh every time a threat struck Iteru. Armed with Khopeshes, Ryuan Recurve Bows, and sometimes Battleaxes.

-Serpopards: Hybrids of serpents and leopards sometimes unleashed against enemies in battle.

-Mummies: Dead remains of an Iteru buried in a tomb after the process of mummification. Can be temporarily reanimated using Death Magic.

-Shabtis: Statues enchanted with a priming spell. When activated by Death Magic, this priming spell will temporarily animate the statue. Armament depends on what the statue is depicted carrying.

-Anubian Royal Guards: Composed entirely of the Anubian race, these were the royal guards of the Iteru Pharaoh. Armed with Astral Magic and Khopeshes.

-Anubian Priests: Members of the Anubian race with the immortality mutation (they can only be killed in battle or through other non-age-related means as they cannot age). Armed with highly advanced Astral Magic, and in the cases of some of the older ones, Shadow Magic.

-Manders: Composed of Salamanders. Armed similarly to Iteru Soldiers.

Kroks: Composed of members of the Krok race who originally wished to enslave the Iteru and Manders (although they had a change of heart under Khufu). Armed with staffs, Astral Magic, and sometimes Shadow Magic.

Weapons:

-Khopesh: Hook-shaped bronze or iron sword meant as both a cutting weapon and to hook the enemy's blade.

Land Vehicles:

-Horses

-Camels

-Maryannu War Chariots: Open-top carriages pulled by horses or camels where an Iteru Soldier will stand and fire arrows at the enemy.

Sea Vehicles:

-Oasis Barges: Based on Ancient Egyptian Barges. Armed with archers. (Can go into air and space via magic.)

National Animal:

Iteru Crocodile
