Graia is a city-state that was raised by outcasts of King's Gate, mostly mages, fleeing from witchcraft persecutions 5 centuries ago. They fled to what is called the 'Lands Beyond' , Trying to make a place they could truthly call "Home" over it. Only in the recent 2 centuries did the splintered mages unite, putting all colonists under one banner, and the following goals; Prosperity, Safety, Unity. Now, Graia is coming back to King's Gate after years of isolation, ready to show the world what prosperity looks like. Some argue that they will show not only prosperity... but vengeance. Graians seem to follow the teachings of Trinitism, a smaller religion consisting of a pantheon of 3 deities within the realm.
This faction follows a late medieval aesthetic with fantastic elements (Knights, Paladins, battle-mages, custom faith, enchanted knights, dragon riders, etc.). The general soldier aesthetic tends into the terrain of western Europe.

The Empire of Redthorne is a globe-spanning empire, with a professional army, powerful navy, several colonies and on the brink of economic disaster. 10 years of a hard-fought war had drained the empire’s coffers. Trouble at home has also meant that they have undergone radical government change, going from an absolute monarchy to a democracy back to an autocracy meant that unrest at home is also high, with people fed up with the current economic crisis.
The First Emperor of Redthorne authorized the deployment of the 3rd Western Expeditionary Brigade to a recently charted island that the Imperial Navy of Redthorne had landed parties on. Reports suggest that it is a dangerous land, but also full of promise, with huge potential for trade and resources that can help keep them afloat until economic reform fully takes effect. Only time will tell whether the island will make or break the empire. This faction follows Napoleonic-era aesthetics with fantasy elements mixed in (such as magic muskets, mages, dragons and more.)

The Vanatland Empire was formed in the land of Columba, an island located in the Northern Hemisphere. A combination of Northern, Western, and Southern Europe in terms of land mass. Formerly called the Columba's Divinitas Council, run by the Yaklob brothers (Paverion, Cato, and Marius), to fight against the oppressive rules of other local lords. After a 5-year-long conflict, the council took over the entirety of Columba, revamping their monarch system to abolish serfdom, reinforcing gender equality, reopening trade routes, and, on top of that, imposing harsh punishment on any lords who mistreated their people. The Vanatians' new model army utilizes Pike and shot tactics, with the addition of mages and beasts unit to further boost their strength. But you'll also see a mix of 14th-16th-century knights in our ranks, since we're quite conservative about our old military tradition.
In our calendar year, 1688, a small galley of explorers and marines discovered an unnamed island. Over there, they made trades, pacts, and formed friendships with a lot of friendly coastal tribes, but years later, they went silent. A navy detachment was also sent there to investigate; they, too, never returned. The King himself ordered 3 Foot regiments, 1 Horse regiment, and a small navy fleet to be sent over there as an Expeditionary crew. Their job? to investigate the disappearance of their countrymen and bring them back home. Join us in bringing our men and women back to their homes safely.

The Kingdom of Ironvale is a vast and mighty Kingdom located on the mainland continent of Elysium. Ironvale is a nation rich with industry and home to one of the largest deposits of Iron and Steel located within its vast mountains. The Kingdom of Ironvale has transformed into a regional powerhouse and one of the most progressive and advanced kingdoms on the northern continent. With over 52 districts and several small cities and towns spread all across the land, the Kingdom of Ironvale has existed as one of the finest Kingdoms in the realm since its establishment over 250 years ago. It is a Kingdom open to all, and where all races are welcome and free to live in peace and prosperity.
Recently, the Kingdom of Ironvale has been ravaged by 15 long years of Civil War from within. Though the war is now over, the Kingdom stands in peril. Crime, corruption, and banditry exist in the absence of overstretched and undermanned security forces. The Army stands at half its strength, and the industry is in the process of rebuilding damaged cities and towns. Refugees are being returned, and recent contact with an Island nation has prompted the Kingdom to seek aid in an effort to speed up the rebuilding process and locate refugees who fled in an effort to return them home to their families. It is up to the people of Ironvale to rebuild their once proud nation and return it to its former glory.
